Ye Fan turned and led Lu Xiaoman to the second sub-level, where Mo Xiaoyan caught up and took his other arm.
After circling the second sub-level, Ye Fan asked Lu Xiaoman, âIs there anything youâre interested in playing?â
âThis floor is much better than the last one,â Lu Xiaoman said.
âLetâs sit in the billiards room; it seems pretty quiet there.â
Entering the billiards room, the three of them chose casual seating at tables on either side of the room.
Since these tables were rectangular with fixed sofas on either side, Lu Xiaoman and Mo Xiaoyan sat on one side, with Ye Fan on the other.
They ordered three drinks and some dry snacks, chatting quietly with smiles on their faces, creating a rather warm and pleasant atmosphere.
After about fifteen minutes of conversation, Mo Xiaoyan, noticing others playing cards or chess at different tables, suggested they play cards as well.
The attendant brought over two unopened decks of playing cards, and Mo Xiaoyan tore open one of them, then said, âThree people, letâs just play âFight the Landlordâ.
But we should have some stakes.â
âPlaying âFight the Landlordâ is fine, but you decide the stakes.
I donât want to have to think,â Ye Fan said.
Considering his relationship with Lu Xiaoman, as well as Lu Xiaomanâs with Mo Xiaoyan, deciding on what to bet wasnât easy.
Lu Xiaoman also laughed and said, âHehe, I donât feel like thinking either.â
Mo Xiaoyan racked her brains but couldnât come up with any suitable stakes for the moment, so she gave up.
Even without stakes, Ye Fan, Lu Xiaoman, and Mo Xiaoyan had a great time playing cards and chatting.
Around nine oâclock, Ye Fan, Lu Xiaoman, and Mo Xiaoyan left the Yonghui Club.
In the Yonghui Clubâs parking lot, before getting into the car, Mo Xiaoyan cooed at Ye Fan, âI know you find me in the way, and I think youâre hindering my fun with my sister.
But, I have things to do now, so Iâm leaving first and wonât stay with you guys to play.â
Ye Fan chuckled in response and agreed tacitly to Mo Xiaoyanâs departure.
âHmph, stupid brother-in-law, not even offering to keep me from leaving!â Mo Xiaoyan pouted playfully, then pulled Lu Xiaoman a few meters away for a whispered conversation between sisters.
Finally, Mo Xiaoyan walked to her car, and Lu Xiaoman returned to Ye Fan, her face slightly flushed.
After Mo Xiaoyan drove off swiftly, Ye Fan and Lu Xiaoman also left the parking lot together in their car and arrived at a nearby leisure square, where they found a parking spot.
After parking, Lu Xiaoman affectionately took Ye Fanâs arm, and they walked and talked in the leisure square.
Although it was just a regular walk and chat, Ye Fan felt extremely pleased and peaceful.
They strolled until after ten before stopping, and then Ye Fan drove Lu Xiaoman home.
Leaving the Italian Roman District in his car and heading back to the Dingsheng International Hotel, Ye Fan thought of the pleasant warmth of the evening and felt even more convinced that Lu Xiaoman was the one he wanted.
âAfter the old manâs big birthday, no matter what, I must get divorced!â Ye Fan sternly resolved, âAnd then marry Xiaoman.â
Lu Xiaoman got home and sent a text message to Mo Xiaoyan from her phone: âSis, Iâm home now.â
Soon after, Mo Xiaoyan called her.
Since she couldnât let her foster parents know about Mo Xiaoyanâs existence, Lu Xiaoman took the call in her room.
âSis, did you get it wrong?
How could you not seize the opportunity with the atmosphere being so good tonight?!â Mo Xiaoyan frantically exclaimed on the phone, âTell me, what did you guys do afterward?â
Lu Xiaoman replied with a gentle smile, âWent for a walk in a square, had a really nice chat.â
âUgh!
Whatâs so fun about walking around a square?â Mo Xiaoyan said with exasperated affection, âSis, arenât you afraid that your brother-in-law will be snatched away by another woman?
Even if the brother-in-law doesnât change his heart, as a direct descendent of the Ye family, in a few days, they might arrange a political marriage for him!â
âSigh, sis, you didnât completely take down your brother-in-law tonight.
What a missed opportunity!â Mo Xiaoyan said, pounding her chest and stamping her feet in frustration.
Lu Xiaoman chuckled, âRelax, some things are meant to happen naturally when the time is right.
Letâs not bring up such an embarrassing topic anymore.â
The two sisters chatted for a few more sentences before ending the call.
After hanging up, Lu Xiaoman let out a melancholy sigh and muttered to herself, âLittle sister, you donât knowâŚ
Iâm already a big step behind.
Perhaps, for my whole life, I can only be a woman kept in the shadowsâŚâ
Back to Mo Xiaoyan, right after finishing the call with Lu Xiaoman, she couldnât hold back her irritation and immediately called Ye Fan.
Ye Fan was still in the car when he received Mo Xiaoyanâs call.
âXiaoyan, whatâs up?â Ye Fan asked with a smile.
âI!âŚ
You!âŚâ Mo Xiaoyan opened her mouth several times but didnât know what to say.
Could she really blame Ye Fan for not getting a room with her sister tonight?
After waiting for a long time without hearing Mo Xiaoyan speak, Ye Fan couldnât help but laugh, âWhat about me?
Just say what you want to say.
When have you ever been formal with me?â
âHmph, nasty brother-in-law, I hate you!â Mo Xiaoyan spat out angrily.
Ye Fan felt he was being unfairly accused and thought he was more wronged than Dou E, as he hadnât provoked Mo Xiaoyan at all that evening.
He couldnât help but exclaim, âHey, hey, hey, be clearer, when did I ever bother you?â
âYou just did!â Mo Xiaoyan retorted angrily.
âHow did I?â Ye Fan asked.
Mo Xiaoyan couldnât come up with an answer, but her irritation grew, and in a moment of frustration, she blurted out, âYou stole my first kiss!â
âCough, cough, coughâŚâ Ye Fan coughed awkwardly several times and said guiltily, âHasnât that already passed?
It was a total accident.
Weâre all adults, so letâs forget about it.â
âYou, you dare forget?â Mo Xiaoyan fumed.
Ye Fan quickly apologized, âI wouldnât dare, wouldnât dare.â
âHmph!â Mo Xiaoyan snorted loudly, âIâm in a bad mood right now, and you must come and keep me company!â
âItâs too late now.
You should just sleep it off, and youâll feel better tomorrow,â Ye Fan refused.
âYouâre not coming over, huh?
Fine, when Iâm feeling down, I like to call my sister and talk to herâŚâ Mo Xiaoyan threatened.
Ye Fan started getting a headache and cut off Mo Xiaoyanâs words, âAlright, alright, you win.
Where are you, Iâll come find you.â
âOf course, Iâm at home.
Go to that KTV we went to last time, book a mini private room and wait for me!â Mo Xiaoyan demanded.
With no other choice, Ye Fan agreed.
Around ten minutes later, Ye Fan drove to the KTV where he had previously hung out alone with Mo Xiaoyan.
He booked a mini coupleâs private room, ordered red wine, drinks, snacks, and a fruit platter, and then sat on the plush sofa, waiting for Mo Xiaoyan to arrive.
After about six or seven minutes, Mo Xiaoyan arrived.
As Mo Xiaoyan entered, Ye Fan couldnât help but give her a once-over.
She had changed out of her earlier outfit, now sporting a tight, black leather mini skirt that hugged her rear, with her long, slender legs clad in a striking pair of black thigh-high boots.
The exposed portion of her legs was wrapped in sheer black stockings, showcasing her perfect, sexy figure in its entirety.
Paired with her stunningly beautiful face, flowing long hair draped over her shoulders, and her assertive aura, she radiated a wild and sexy beauty, like an untamed female leopard.
