Chapter 112 Now Focus
Su Ruan's buttons popped open, her clothes were disheveled, and he lowered his head to kiss her collarbone, his breath hot.
“Yan Tingnan…”
She pushed his shoulder, panting.
"The bowls haven't been cleared away yet..."
"Someone will collect it tomorrow."
He bit open the clasp of her bra, then placed his palm on her waist and kneaded it until it went limp.
The phone suddenly vibrated, buzzing and spinning on the island platform.
The screen lit up; it was a WeChat call from Huo Siyue.
Su Ruan reached out to press it down, but he grabbed her wrist and pressed her back onto the table.
Ignore it.
He kissed behind her ear, his voice hoarse.
Su Ruan was so distracted by him that her fingertips trembled as she reached out.
I meant to hang up, but I accidentally pressed the answer button.
Huo Siyue's excited voice instantly rang out.
"Hey? Su Daji, my darling, are you back from the southwest?"
"Quickly! Report back immediately! What's the situation?"
"Did you win over my brother? Did you sleep with him in bed?!"
"I bet you'll succeed within three months! Did you win?!"
Su Ruan felt a chill run down her spine and tensed up instantly.
It's over.
This girl really knows how to bring up the most sensitive topics.
Yan Tingnan paused, then looked up at her.
A turbulent undercurrent surged in his eyes, carrying a hint of dangerous amusement.
"Hmm, it's alright, the scenery is nice..."
Her voice trembled as she tried to remain calm.
Huo Siyue was completely unaware and kept typing away.
"I knew it! Your intervention would definitely work. My brother actually came back today!"
“In previous years, he would go to Yunqi Temple and disappear for at least half a month, but this time he actually came back ahead of schedule!”
Su Ruan took a deep breath.
"Your brother is busy with work, so it's normal for him to come back early."
"Normal my foot!"
Huo Siyue shouted.
"No matter how busy he was, he always made sure to spend his days there in quiet contemplation!"
Something's definitely up. Did you succeed?
Upon hearing this, Yan Tingnan lowered his head, bit her earlobe, and whispered in a soft voice.
That bastard Yan Tingnan!
They actually took advantage of her while she was on the phone...
"Tell her whether you succeeded or not."
Su Ruan gasped, her voice almost trembling.
Did they succeed?
Isn't this what we're gaining?
"The Buddha's heart is unfathomable, how could I possibly know..."
Huo Siyue chuckled on the other end of the phone, her voice lowered and tinged with excitement.
"The Buddha's heart is unfathomable? Your choice of words is quite ingenious, Su Daji!"
"He's been acting strange since he came back this time; he actually left work on time today."
"And they even asked me if I've had my eye on any bags lately?"
"It's like a thousand-year-old iron tree blooming; there must be something supernatural about it!"
Su Ruan bit her lip.
"Your brother isn't so easy to understand."
"The key to spiritual practice is the process; there's no need to rush."
Huo Siyue paused for two seconds, then burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, Su Daji, why are you talking like my brother now!"
"You two are truly a perfect match!"
Yan Tingnan stared at her with dark, intense eyes.
Su Ruan's heart pounded wildly, fearing that Huo Siyue would notice something amiss, and she quickly tried to cover it up.
"One is influenced by one's company," as the saying goes. I learned a couple of phrases from your brother.
After Huo Siyue finished laughing, her tone suddenly became ambiguous.
"So, have you figured anything out yet? Was my brother's path easy to understand?"
Su Ruan's voice was soft.
"Unfathomable".
It is not just unfathomable, it is boundless and bottomless, enough to drown a person.
Huo Siyue suddenly realized.
"I understand. That means it's still in the process and hasn't reached its full potential yet."
"However, the fact that you were able to let him return to Beijing ahead of schedule is already a historic breakthrough!"
"For someone like my brother to break his schedule for you, what else could that be but love?"
As she spoke, Huo Siyue sighed.
"When can I start calling you sister-in-law?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Tingnan slowly and deliberately taught her.
"Speak too quickly."
What's so fast about that!
He's dying!
Her brother is driving her crazy!
Yan Tingnan suddenly decided to cause trouble.
Su Ruan gasped sharply, her voice caught in her throat.
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
Huo Siyue became alert.
"No... I didn't bump my foot."
Su Ruan managed to keep her voice steady.
Her toes curled up, and she wanted nothing more than to kick him.
"Oh, by the way, why do you sound a little breathless? Have you caught a cold?"
Yan Tingnan lowered his head, his nose brushing against her sweaty temples, his hot breath filling her ear canal.
Tell her you're exercising.
His voice was extremely low, each word deliberate and carrying a sinister undertone.
Su Ruan's nails dug into his shoulder, and she could only stumble along with his words.
"It's a bit hot, so I'm doing some stretching."
Huo Siyue was completely unaware and was still chuckling.
"Stretching well is important, but flexibility is also crucial."
"Mastering your core skills will be useful later!"
it works?
It's already so useful right now!
Su Ruan's ears were burning hot, so she quickly interrupted.
"Siyue, I'm hanging up now..."
Huo Siyue clicked her tongue.
"So what's your next plan? Continue to tackle the challenges?"
Su Ruan's breath hitched.
"Plans will take their course..."
plan?
The plan is to survive tonight under his control!
"Why leave it to fate? Be more proactive."
Huo Siyue stomped her feet in frustration.
"You have to flirt with my brother, the kind of guy who's secretly passionate! Flirt with him relentlessly!"
"I'm already flirting with him."
Su Ruan blurted it out, and immediately wanted to bite her tongue.
Yan Tingnan chuckled and bit her earlobe.
Su Ruan's dangling toes accidentally knocked over the wine glass beside her.
The crimson wine spilled out, soaking the cuffs of his snow-white shirt.
"Huh? What's that sound?"
Huo Siyue was puzzled and began to mutter to herself.
"No, it's gurgling?"
Su Ruan felt a chill run down her spine and stammered, trying to make excuses.
"I accidentally knocked over the decanter, and red wine spilled all over the floor."
"I'll pack up first, we'll talk later."
Before Huo Siyue could speak again, she abruptly hung up the phone and threw it onto the sofa.
The world suddenly fell silent, with only the sound of our breaths mingling.
Yan Tingnan pinched her chin, forcing her to look up.
"A bet? What three months?"
Su Ruan's ears were burning hot, and she looked away and muttered.
"I'll bet Siyue I can sleep with you within three months."
Yan Tingnan raised an eyebrow, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.
"She underestimates you."
"That's giving me way too much credit."
"The moment you bumped into my arms, I wanted this."
Su Ruan glared at him, panting.
"Then why are you pretending to be a respectable person!"
"Shouldn't I let you flirt a little longer?"
"I'm going to great lengths to tease you, yet you're trying so hard to act innocent. I'll have to tease you enough."
"When I pushed you away later, it wasn't because I didn't want you, but because I couldn't."
He kissed the corner of her lips, his voice hoarse.
"Teacher Yan, is it hard to keep up this act?"
"What if I hadn't gone to the southwest to find you?"
Yan Tingnan remained silent for a long time before kissing the back of her neck.
"Then I'll probably be able to go crazy in a more dignified way."
Su Ruan laughed out loud, then felt a lump in her throat.
This man always makes his obsession sound like sweet nothings.
"And what about you?"
Yan Tingnan nuzzled her cheek with the tip of his nose.
"What are you betting on?"
Su Ruan's breath hitched.
I bet you won't.
Yan Tingnan bit her lower lip, his voice deep and husky with a hint of laughter.
"lie."
"From beginning to end, all you've been thinking about is how to bring me down from my pedestal."
He kissed the side of her neck, then cupped her lower back with his palms and pulled her into his arms.
"Your mouth is most captivating when you're lying."
"But I don't like hearing lies, I only like leaving you speechless."
"Focus now."
The deep red wine soaked through his shirt and clung to his skin.
Yan Tingnan found it in the way and simply tore it off and threw it on the ground.
Everything that followed was chaotic and out of control.
I felt that he was particularly different tonight.
It's as if the island control is some kind of special switch, and it goes crazy the moment it's touched.
Yes, he dreamed about this place.
I dreamt of her tilting her head back in ecstasy, and of the way her fingertips crumpled his shirt.
Now that his dream has come true, he is even crazier than in the dream.
Clothes were scattered all over the ground, like defeated banners.
As Su Ruan was lifted onto the sofa, she sank into the soft leather and looked up to see her own bewildered eyes reflected in the ceiling mirror.
The mirror surface blurred and swayed, and the lamplight shattered into shimmering light.
I finally made it to the bedroom, but I had no idea what time it was.
