When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase

Chapter 291: Birthday Banquet (Part 1)

Tang Yanqi kept her composure as she ate her food, and upon hearing Sheng Jianan’s agitated voice, she slowly looked up, "What’s wrong?"

"You..."

"Ahem!"

The three people who had been quietly eating couldn’t hold it in any longer. Bai Bing was the first to speak, "Well, I just remembered that I have to submit a proposal for my thesis tomorrow, and I haven’t started writing it, so I’ll take my leave."

Bai Xue: "Me too, me too."

Qi Cheng: "Let’s go together."

The three of them simultaneously stood up quickly, didn’t even bother to say goodbye, and left immediately. Only Qi Cheng, as he was the last to leave, reached out to pat Tang Yanqi on the shoulder with a mischievous grin.

Tang Yanqi blushed deeply. She also wanted to sneak away with her roommates, but before she could take two steps, her wrist was grabbed, and with a strong pull, she was brought back into Sheng Jianan’s embrace.

"Why are you running? You burned this Young Master and want to escape?"

Not caring about who was in front of her, Tang Yanqi glared at him angrily. This guy must have taken the wrong medicine today, absolutely crazy.

In contrast to Tang Yanqi’s anger, Sheng Jianan had a smug smile on his face. Without those three light bulbs, the air suddenly felt much better.

He wrapped an arm around Tang Yanqi’s waist, pulling her close. He lowered his head so that their cheeks nearly touched, then pointed to his lips, "Burned, what to do?"

"Cool... mm..."

Tang Yanqi had just said a word when her lips were blocked, her lips accurately kissed by him. Tang Yanqi hit his shoulder with her hands. What the heck, what the heck, we’re eating here.

It seemed her hands were a hindrance, so Sheng Jianan pulled her hands behind her back and clasped them together, then turned her and pinned her against the wall.

The house was not small, yet at this moment, Tang Yanqi felt as if there was only this small space where they were pressed against each other.

After letting him act shamelessly and take advantage, Tang Yanqi finally gained her freedom. The hot pot on the table had already cooled down.

Sheng Jianan tilted his head and glanced over, then walked over to grab his jacket from the sofa, pulling Tang Yanqi outward.

Outside, the sun had already set, and the sky was on the brink of darkness. Tang Yanqi followed Sheng Jianan out, but after a short distance, she sensed something was off. She pulled her hand out of Sheng Jianan’s hand because this was the school; just because there was no one now doesn’t mean there won’t be anyone later.

Feeling his hand suddenly empty, Sheng Jianan frowned. Tang Yanqi didn’t look at him and pointed to another road, "I’ll walk this way."

After speaking, she hurried away. Young Master Sheng was a bit displeased. His woman, his wife, and he couldn’t even hold her hand?

But thinking about the previous rumors about Tang Yanqi, Sheng Jianan endured it. People’s words can be terrible. He didn’t care, but she was still a girl after all.

Sheng Jianan took Tang Yanqi to a private restaurant, the same one Qiao Zi had ordered from for him at noon.

Looking at the person sitting across from him, Young Master Sheng was in a good mood. He picked up a piece of Wagyu beef and put it in his mouth; indeed, this is how it should taste.

Halfway through the meal, Sheng Jianan suddenly spoke, "How do you want to celebrate your birthday?"

"What?"

Concentrating on her meal, Tang Yanqi didn’t react for a moment and looked up, puzzled, not noticing the black pepper sauce on the corner of her mouth. Sheng Jianan reached out, the pad of his thumb gently sweeping across the corner of her mouth, "Your birthday."

The warmth of his fingers lingered on the corner of her mouth, and the person in question even licked his own finger in the process.
