He Tingjun's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, but he didn't show it on his face. He explained, "Most of the men in our He family don't like smoking, but there are one or two exceptions occasionally. Plus, two of our childhood friends came to the party today. As security guards, we're under a lot of pressure from investigating cases, so sometimes we can't help but need cigarettes to stay alert. Over time, they've become addicted. They smoke quite heavily, and I might have been too close to them, so the cigarette smell is stronger on me."
Yun Qiao was skeptical, "Really? You smell so strongly of cigarettes, have you really not smoked a single puff?"
It is difficult for men to quit smoking, but they will fail quickly if they want to learn. However, once they start smoking, it will be difficult to quit.
Yun Qiao hates men who smoke the most, but she doesn't want her man to be a smoker too, so that his mouth will be full of the smell of cigarettes after a kiss.
"That's right. When have I ever lied to you?" He Tingjun said, stepping forward to hug Yun Qiao again, softening his tone and saying, "Wife, I brought you yellow croaker noodles when I came back. It was made by the chef at the state-owned restaurant in front of my elementary school. It tastes super good. When I was a child, my grandparents were busy with work and had no time to cook for me, so I often ate there after school. Do you want to try my favorite flavor as a child?"
Only then did Yun Qiao see that He Tingjun was holding a rice pot in his hand.
Her heart softened, and she still covered her nose and said, "I'll wash Yanyan's clothes before eating. You can put the rice pot on the dining table. I'll go take a shower later. Otherwise, the smell of smoke on you makes me want to vomit. I can't talk to you."
"Okay, then hurry up, or the noodles will clump up soon."
His wife ignored him, and He Tingjun had no choice but to go wash up first.
When he came out of the shower, Yun Qiao had already washed and hung out the clothes, and was sitting at the dining table eating noodles.
He Tingjun walked slowly to her side and sat down, resting his elbows on the table. He tilted his head to look at her and asked, "How is it? Is this noodle delicious?"
"It tastes good, quite delicious." Yun Qiao nodded and said, "It's amazing that you remembered to bring me something to eat after drinking."
Yun Qiao was actually just expressing his feelings normally, but He Tingjun took it as sarcastic.
He sat up straight upon hearing that, looked Yun Qiao in the eye, and explained seriously, "Wife, this is a special situation. We haven't seen each other for ages, and we finally got back together. I can't spoil the mood by not letting anyone smoke or drink. I admit that I was out for a long time this time, and it was wrong of me to leave you alone, but I promise this is the first and last time. I will never leave you alone to go out for drinks again. Believe me."
He Tingjun's expression was so sincere that he almost swore to the sky.
Yun Qiao was amused by him. "Alright, why are you so nervous? I don't blame you. You brothers and friends haven't seen each other for a while, so it's only natural to meet up for a drink and catch up. I just don't like your smoking, so I asked a few more questions."
He Tingjun immediately said, "I don't smoke, they smoke."
Yun Qiao chuckled: "I believe you."
When He Tingjun saw her smile, he breathed a sigh of relief and started laughing too.
After finishing his noodles, He Tingjun tried to show off and took the initiative to wash the rice pot.
He wanted to show off, so Yun Qiao let him do so and waited for him at the kitchen door.
The dim light fell on her face, casting a soft glow around her, making her temperament even more gentle and charming.
He Tingjun's eyes dimmed slightly. He put his arm around her waist and went back to the room. After closing the door, he pressed her against the door and leaned over to kiss her.
He had brushed his teeth, but there was still a faint smell of alcohol in his mouth, which was not unpleasant.
The scorching breath sprayed on Yun Qiao's neck, and his big palm also reached in from the hem of his clothes, and then moved upwards...
Yun Qiao still had her sanity. She blocked his palm, turned her head away from his kiss, and refused with a red face: "No, no way..."
"You don't want to?"
He kissed her lips and chased after her.
Yun Qiao avoided answering and just said, "That's gone."
"That's perfect." He Tingjun chuckled softly, his hoarse voice carrying a hint of seduction. "Haven't you always been talking about giving Yanyan a brother or sister?"
Yun Qiao's ears felt slightly hot: "But you drank."
"A little wine won't hurt."
…
After the beautiful moment, Yun Qiao's waist and legs ached. Just as he was about to fall into a deep sleep, he suddenly remembered something and woke up from his dream. "He Tingjun, is there something I forgot to tell you?"
He Tingjun closed his eyes and pulled her into his arms. He placed a kiss on her forehead and asked, "What's the matter?"
"My friend got married a few days ago, and I didn't receive the letter she sent me. I went to see her today, and she said she wanted to spend the next day with her husband and treated our family to dinner. We wanted to get to know each other."
Yun Qiao's friend wanted to meet him, and He Tingjun happily agreed without a moment's hesitation: "Okay, when tomorrow?"
Yun Qiao said, "Noon the next day."
"Yeah, I understand."
He Tingjun touched her hair and said, "Go to sleep."
"Yeah." Yun Qiao was extremely tired. He closed his eyes and quickly fell into a deep sleep.

The place where Qin Lili invited them to dinner was a state-owned restaurant near the former Ye family's home. One of their high school classmates worked as a waiter in that state-owned restaurant. Since acquaintances went there, they could be given special care and order some complicated dishes that were not on the menu but were the chef's specialty.
Qin Lili's lover has a rare surname, his surname is Guan, and his name is Guan Jincheng.
Yun Qiao's first reaction was the line from "Happy Rain on a Spring Night", in the morning I saw the red wet area, and the Jinguan City was heavy.
He is also like a poet. The first impression he gives is that he is very delicate. He is tall and thin. His appearance is not particularly outstanding. He wears narrow-rimmed glasses and has a scholarly air.
Qin Lili introduced him as a mechanical engineer at the textile factory, responsible for the daily maintenance of the factory's machinery and equipment. The two met through a blind date and became romantically involved within three days of meeting. They got married half a month later.
When Yun Qiao heard Qin Lili say that Guan Jincheng had just been transferred from Seoul to Shanghai last spring, her eyes widened in surprise. "Does that mean you've already apprehended Comrade Guan right after he arrived at your textile factory? Lili, you're really quick!"
Qin Lili blushed at Yun Qiao's teasing, "It's not as exaggerated as you say."
Guan Jincheng pushed his glasses up on his nose and softly helped his lover out of the predicament: "I fell in love with Lili at first sight and took the initiative to ask someone to introduce her to me."
"So that's how it is." Yun Qiao covered his mouth and laughed, looking back and forth between the two of them. The more he looked, the more he felt that they were a perfect match.
The flowing water has feelings, the falling flowers have intentions, and they like each other. No wonder they can live happily together for the rest of their lives.
The two couples tried to get closer, chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Halfway through the meal, someone suddenly came over with a glass of wine and started talking.
"Long time no see, my two old classmates. What a coincidence that we meet here today."
"Team Leader Luo?" Qin Lili was the first to recognize Luo Wei.
After all, Luo Wei is not only their old classmate, but his father is also the director of the textile factory where she works.
A few days ago, Luo Wei went to Beijing to study at a university after being recommended. It is said that he will also work in a textile factory. Maybe he will become her leader in the future. Even if Qin Lili has some opinions about him in her heart, she has to be careful in her attitude towards him.
"It's me." Luo Wei smiled warmly. "Comrade Qin Lili, I heard you got married recently? The other party is also an employee of our Second Textile Factory? Congratulations, congratulations, and I wish you a happy marriage."
"Yes." Qin Lili nodded and smiled: "Thank you for the blessing, Captain Luo. We will."
