Mr.CEO Looks Exactly the Same as My Son!-Chapter 697: Mr. Bei Chen is a Vinegar Jar

Even though she felt a bit uncomfortable, it wasn’t good to just sit there idly. So, with an awkward smile, she said "thank you" to Ye Xinluo before starting to eat from the bowl in front of her a bit awkwardly.

She didn’t dare to look at the others present the whole time, nor did she take the initiative to pick up any food. Most of the dishes were picked up for her by Ye Xinluo.

Yet, Ye Xinluo didn’t eat much.

After the meal was over, and she returned to her seat, Qin Yin finally let out a big sigh of relief. She opened her palm to find it all sweaty. After the meal, Mo Han helped clear the tableware, and then they each went for a nap.

Since she had slept a bit earlier, Ye Xinluo wasn’t very sleepy, and she sat on the sofa playing on her phone. Beichen Rui sat beside her, holding her left hand and gently squeezing it now and then.

Leaning closer to her, he asked softly, "What are you looking at?"

"A novel." Nestled in his arms, she stared at the phone screen with great concentration.

Someone wasn’t pleased. Seeing that she kept staring at the screen and ignoring him, he squeezed her hand with a bit more force.

Ye Xinluo’s hands, which looked slender and beautiful, felt soft to the touch. When the two were cuddled together, he loved to knead them.

"What’s wrong?" she asked without even looking up.

The next second, her phone was out of her hand. Before she could react, it was in his lap, and the phone that was just in her palm was tossed to the corner of the sofa by him.

She raised her head in confusion, looking into his eyes, "What’s wrong? Why all of a sudden..."

Before she could finish, Beichen Rui leaned down and blocked her lips. Ye Xinluo, clueless, stared wide-eyed, her confusion deepening.

His kiss was a bit messy, carrying a tint of dissatisfaction, the force sometimes light and sometimes heavy, occasionally biting her painfully. When the kiss ended, both of their breaths were disordered. He brushed away the hair from her face and said something that made Ye Xinluo somewhat amused.

"The novel isn’t as good-looking as me."

Ye Xinluo: "..."

Mr. Bei Chen is a jar of jealousy...

Moreover, inexplicably jealous, he’s actually jealous of a novel?

She smiled, hooked his neck, and gave him a quick peck on the lips, "You can even be jealous of this. Maybe I should rename you to Ye Three-Year-Old!"

"What?"

"Didn’t you say you’d take my surname? How old are you this year, being so childish? Aren’t you embarrassed?"

"Not embarrassed at all!"

...

In the afternoon, Ye Xinluo received a call from Lan Shan. As soon as the call connected, the complaints began, "Lan Xiaoshan, do you remember to call me back? I thought you forgot about me."

"How could that be," Lan Shan’s voice came through. There was a time difference between the two places, and it’s afternoon in City Z now, so it’s probably evening over there.

Sitting in her seat, she took a sip from her water cup before speaking, "These past few days, I’ve called you so many times, and your phone is always off. You’re not even giving me a call back. Did you forget about me after going out to play?"

"No, I’ve been adjusting to the time difference these past two days, haven’t quite adapted yet!"

"Are you okay now?"

"Hmm... Much better. Oh, by the way, how have these past few days been?"

Ye Xinluo: "Pretty good, how about you?"

"I’ve been pretty good too, planning to go out and have a look around tomorrow." Lan Shan’s voice sounded a bit muffled, but it seemed like her mood had improved somewhat... As long as she felt better, Ye Xinluo would be relieved.

She chuckled and replied, "It’s probably evening over there, right? If you’re going out to play tomorrow, get some rest early."

"Hmm... I’ll hang up first, and I’ll call you again when I have time."

"Okay."
