Like any relationship that requires mutual fulfillment, good chemistry in bed is essential for a lasting relationship.
After dinner, Song Yunxi sat on the sofa with her knees bent, looking up information on her laptop. Mu Chen sat next to her, holding her and discussing the menu for the joint project with her.
"I think tea sets should mainly be made of Chinese porcelain."
Song Yunxi pointed to an image that appeared on the screen. It was a white cup with a half-heart-shaped handle, along with a teapot, saucer, and dessert plate—all pure white, adorned with delicate gold floral embellishments along the edges. It was both sophisticated and stylish, yet elegant and sophisticated.
“Hmm.” Mu Chen nodded. “Besides traditional afternoon tea snacks like scones and sandwiches, we can also consider macarons, velvet cakes, and cream puffs.”
"The drinks should mainly consist of English black tea, accompanied by some pudding or specialty fruit drinks. Oh, and you could also add some tea and cream to your milk cherry drink."
In fact, the tea and pastry chefs were already selecting products, and once the initial menu was released, it would be submitted to the project team for discussion. However, Song Yunxi couldn't resist wanting to know more about the situation herself.
Mu Chen smiled and kissed Song Yunxi on the cheek. "Whatever you say."
The WeChat notification rang. Song Yunxi read the message and quickly typed a reply. Then she placed her phone and computer on the coffee table, freeing her hands to hook them around Mu Chen's neck.
"Mr. Mu, why don't you go back first?"
"how?"
Mu Chen knew that Song Yunxi's request for him to leave the room must be related to that WeChat message.
"Mr. Tantai said he has something to discuss with me and he will come to my room in a little while."
really.
"Why should I leave when he comes to your room?"
"Didn't we agree not to let more people know until the rule against dating is lifted?"
"First of all, he's not an employee of Platinum Hotels, so it doesn't matter if he finds out. Secondly, even if we don't tell anyone else, he still has to know."
After Mu Chen finished speaking, he pulled Song Yunxi's hand off his neck, got up, and went to the bar to pour himself a glass of water.
Song Yunxi smiled, walked over barefoot, sat on the high stool by the bar, and tugged at the hem of Mu Chen's shirt, waiting for him to pour her water.
Why are you always jealous of him?
"Because you like him."
To say he liked her wouldn't be entirely accurate. Song Yunxi probably admired and even idolized Tantai Yi.
Although it wasn't romantic love, Mu Chen could see that Tantai Yi had feelings for Song Yunxi. If he hadn't made the first move, who knows if Song Yunxi would have been moved by Tantai Yi?
“I do like Mr. Tantai very much.” Song Yunxi saw Mu Chen’s cold face, then leaned forward and hugged his waist. “But I like you even more.”
Just as Mu Chen lowered his head to kiss Song Yunxi, the doorbell rang. But Mu Chen's kiss wasn't over yet, and he didn't intend to stop halfway.
Song Yunxi reached out and pushed him away, laughing, "Stop fooling around, I'll go open the door."
Just as he was about to jump off the high stool, Mu Chen stopped him. "Sit still. I'll go open it."
Tantai Yi paused slightly upon seeing Mu Chen, then smiled. "President Mu?"
"President Tantai, please come in."
After letting Tantai Yi enter, Mu Chen turned around and went to the sofa to pick up Song Yunxi's slippers. He put them on her feet before allowing her to jump off the high stool.
Song Yunxi placed the teacup on the coffee table in front of Tantai Yi. "Mr. Tantai, please have some tea."
The three people sat facing each other: Song Yunxi sat on the sofa, while Tantai Yi and Mu Chen sat on the single sofas on either side of the sofa.
Tantai Yi picked up his teacup and took a small sip. "I didn't know President Mu was here too. Sorry to bother you."
"I'm discussing the menu for the joint project with President Mu." Song Yunxi pointed to the laptop on the coffee table, where pictures of afternoon tea pastries were displayed on the screen.
Tantai Yi smiled. "I came to invite Miss Song to attend the premiere of Mu Xian's new movie."
Mu Chen looked up and saw that Tantai Yi was clearly provoking him.
But Tantai Yi didn't think so; he clearly wanted to compete fairly with Mu Chen.
“Of course I’d love to participate,” Song Yunxi said with a smile, then turned to look at Mu Chen. “But this requires President Mu’s approval.”
Tantai Yi also looked at Mu Chen and asked with a smile, "Oh? But this is a private invitation, not business, and it doesn't take up work time. Does President Mu intend to interfere?"
"It's not that I want to interfere, but my girlfriend wants to ask for my opinion when she encounters a problem, which is normal."
Song Yunxi laughed even harder. Mu Chen had finally told his rival the truth himself. Now he shouldn't be angry anymore, right?
"Mr. Mu just agreed to walk the red carpet with Ms. Chi Li yesterday, so why can't Ms. Song come with me? We are business partners, and this is also a business transaction."
Hmm. That makes sense. Song Yunxi nodded inwardly.
Mu Chen said, "I respect Miss Song's decision."
Song Yunxi then turned to Tantai Yi and asked, "Can I give Mr. Tantai an answer tomorrow?"
"sure."
After agreeing, Tantai Yi showed no intention of leaving. Having nothing more to say, he even began to seriously savor his tea.
Mu Chen sat opposite her with his legs crossed. Song Yunxi felt that he might not be able to resist asking her to leave soon.
She tentatively asked, "It's getting late, why don't you two go back and rest?"
Tantai Yi smiled and stood up. "Then I won't disturb Miss Song any longer." He glanced at Mu Chen, who didn't seem to have any intention of leaving.
Song Yunxi saw Tantai Yi to the door, said goodnight to each other, closed the door, and came back to sit on Mu Chen's lap.
She wrapped her arms around his neck, gave him a light kiss on the corner of his lips, and then rested her head on his shoulder.
Mu Chen asked, "Want to go?"
Song Yunxi softly replied, "Mm."
"Then let's go."
As soon as she finished speaking, Song Yunxi subtly raised the corners of her mouth. She knew that this tactic of throwing herself into Mu Chen's arms would be most effective.

After Jiang Hailang finished showering, he simply wrapped a towel around his waist and walked out of the bathroom. On the large bed in the room, Yuan Qingqing, also wrapped in a towel, was lying in the middle of the bed, her slender white legs crossed, playing on her phone and waiting for him.
After Lin Xiaoran ruined his first date with Yuan Qingqing, Yuan Qingqing ignored him for several days. It was only after he sent her flowers and gifts and treated her to meals that he managed to win her back.
This was their first time going to a hotel together, so he had to make a good impression. After all, Yuan Qingqing was someone he could date, someone who could perhaps accompany him for a while in the long journey of life.
Just as Jiang Hailang was about to climb into bed, his phone started beeping, sending several WeChat notification sounds in a row.
He didn't want to watch; he just wanted to quickly enjoy the pleasures of love with the girl who had been waiting in bed for so long. Even if the sky fell, he'd deal with it after he was done.
I picked up my phone, intending to throw it on the bedside table, but then I caught a glimpse of the last WeChat message scrolling across the screen, from Lin Xiaoran.
After unlocking the phone with my fingerprint and opening the WeChat interface, I saw a row of unread messages.
First, there's a puppy emoji.
Then Lin Xiaoran said, "Woof woof."
Are you there? Are you there?
"Mr. Lang, are you there?"
Are you free now?
"Are you on a date?"
"Can you come see me after your date?"
"I really don't know how to repay you for buying me concert tickets, so I've decided to repay you with my body."
Then, Lin Xiaoran sent over a location, which showed a luxury hotel.
Her last WeChat message read, "Waiting for you."
For some reason, when Jiang Hailang saw these lines, his heart raced, and even his breathing became disordered.
When Yuan Qingqing saw Jiang Hailang come out of the bathroom and stand by the bed looking at his phone, she got up from the bed, knelt down by the bed, reached out and hugged his neck, and looked up to kiss his chin.
During the day, Yuan Qingqing is reserved, with a gentle, girlish charm. But in bed, she knows how to take the initiative. Since she's at a hotel, she can't just sit there like a log, waiting for a man to do her bidding.
Like any relationship that requires mutual fulfillment, good chemistry in bed is essential for a lasting relationship.
He had even sped up his shower just now, eager to get out and spend the night with the girl in bed. But now, faced with the girl he had been pursuing for a long time taking the initiative to flirt with him, Jiang Hailang suddenly lost that anticipation and impulse.
If he hadn't known himself well enough, he would have almost thought he had some kind of unspeakable disease.
Jiang Hailang held his phone in his hand and gently kissed Yuan Qingqing on the head. "Qingqing, I have some urgent business to attend to. I'll make plans with you another day. Sorry."
After saying that, he pulled off the bath towel, quickly put on his clothes under Yuan Qingqing's surprised and puzzled gaze, and left the room.
Following the navigation to the location Lin Xiaoran had sent him, Jiang Hailang drove there. Although he knew that Lin Xiaoran's "repayment with her body" wasn't what people usually understood, he still wanted to see what kind of reward she had prepared for him.
In the lobby of the hotel where he had located the room, Jiang Hailang called Lin Xiaoran to ask which room she was in. Lin Xiaoran instead told him to leave the hotel and cross the street. Following her directions, he found a barbecue restaurant hidden at the intersection.
"I'm here!" Lin Xiaoran waved to Jiang Hailang from a table outside the barbecue restaurant, and then hung up the call between the two of them.
Jiang Hailang sat down next to Lin Xiaoran, noticing the skewers already laid out on the table. "Is this the 'payment with meat' you were talking about?"
I never expected this.
"Yes, look, I ordered a lot of meat. Order whatever else you'd like to eat." Lin Xiaoran generously handed over the menu.
Jiang Hailang locked his phone and placed it face down on the table. "If you want barbecue, just say it's barbecue. Why did you need to specify a hotel?"
"Because this barbecue restaurant isn't well-known, I was afraid you wouldn't be able to find it. So I gave you a famous hotel as a reference. When you get there, just call me and I'll give you directions. See, you found me right away, didn't you?" It sounded like he was making a lot of sense.
Lin Xiaoran asked, "How about two skewers of grilled kidneys?"
"don't want."
Jiang Hailang picked up the half-finished beer in front of Lin Xiaoran and downed it in one gulp, his tone rather unfriendly.
Lin Xiaoran quickly grabbed an empty cup and poured Jiang Hailang another one.
Then, she pointed to Jiang Hailang's half-dry hair. "Judging from your appearance, you must have just been working hard somewhere. Are you sure you don't need to touch up your hair afterward?"
He was still wearing the clothes he wore to work during the day, so he wasn't called out by her after taking a shower at home. Instead, he had finished working at a hotel, taken a shower, and then came over.
Jiang Hailang gritted his teeth and said to her angrily, "I haven't even done any work yet and you've already called me here."
Lin Xiaoran burst into laughter.
Oh, so it's because of unfulfilled desires.
