Saving the Heartthrob Frenemy-Chapter 597: Like father like son

The large black gate of the estate groaned on its hinges, slowly parting to reveal the vast greenery. With a roar that shattered the silence, two sleek hypersports cars—a black and a pristine white—burst through the opening. They glided over the cobblestone drive, engines purring with restrained power.

The cars came to a halt side by side in front of the mansion. Qie Xieling stepped out of the car wearing an enigmatic smile. Luo Muchen caught up with him and held his hand their fingers entwined.

Qie Xieling’s smile grew bigger as he dragged him along into the house but Luo Muchen tightened his grip and pulled him back.

Qie Xieling was suddenly pulled into Luo Muchen’s arms right in front of his family home where anyone can open the door at any time and witness this romantic scene.

He bit his lower lip asking with an expression that seemed to ask him what he wanted. Luo Muchen reached to touch his face with a deep alluring gaze.

Qie Xieling grabbed his hand and said, "What? If we don’t hurry in, we might get caught." Luo Muchen didn’t say anything. He just kept staring at him with that soul-snatching gaze. He could feel it slowly drifting out of his body stolen by his man.

Luo Muchen massaged and rubbed Qie Xieling’s fingers with his as he leaned closer. Qie Xieling could feel a warm breath grazing his cheek making him tremble.

He clutched Luo Muchen’s t-shirt lightly and pulled him closer before saying, "Okay, just a small kiss and that’s it."

Luo Muchen’s lips quirked and he said, "Oh, young master Qie is so generous to his husband."

Qie Xieling chuckled softly and came a little more closer their lips about to press together. But how could the universe let them peacefully make out?

The door was suddenly swung open and Wen Danzhe’s head poked out.

"What are you two doing?" he asked as Luo Muchen quickly stepped back his cheeks flushed with a mix of embarrassment and nervousness.

Of the two of them Qie Xieling was’nt nervous at all. He straightened his back and said, "Nothing," but if one looked at him closely they could see his red ears.

He walked in leaving behind his embarrassed boyfriend. After being left defenseless Luo Muchen knew that this uncle was going to embarrass him further.

Wen Danzhe wasn’t at all excessive. He smiled sweetly and said, "You shouldn’t restrain yourself. If you want to kiss go ahead and kiss him. It shows your sincerity."

That was very bad advice and Luo Muchen knew it. It was just a trap. Wen Danzhe wasn’t necessarily targeting him but he just loved the drama. He was tired of being force-fed dog food by his brother and brother in law. It was too blinding.

With such a golden opportunity, why shouldn’t he take revenge on them? "Come inside. I need help outside," he said beckoning him to come in before yelling, "Lin Lin was making out outside."

Qie Xieling who was grabbing an apple in the kitchen froze. His uncle was a world class snitch. He was about to deny it when Wen Danzhe was smacked in the face with an oven mitten.

"How is that any of your business," yelled Grandma Wen but Wen Danzhe could smell the strong scent of gunpowder in the air. He didn’t need to see the person to know that he had succeeded. It was indeed worth it. Luo Muchen felt a biting chill all over his body feeling like he had stepped into a cold storage.

Qie Xieling took a bite of his apple as he picked up a knife to help his nana cut carrots. Just as he lifted the knife his nana took it away from him. "No no no no, I will do it. Thank you honey but I will do it."

Qie Xieling, "..."

"But I want to help," he said and his grandma pointed at the deck outside.

"Go help outside. We really can’t accommodate you in this kitchen," she said because of his track record in the kitchen. Nana Qie didn’t want to renovate her dream kitchen again.

But these two women’s attitudes took a one hundred and eighty degree turn when Luo Muchen walked in. "Ah Ah-Chen is back. Come come come. Help me peel this," said Nana Qie while Grandma Wen asked about his cooking skills.

Qie Xieling, "..."

The treatment was so different. He turned to leave and Luo Muchen glanced at his retreating back that looked a bit dejected.

On the contrary, Qie Xieling was excitedly looking at the barbeque happening outside. He stood silently in the lounge, his gaze fixed through the glass doors that led to the deck. Outside, the late afternoon sun cast a warm glow over the scene, illuminating the faces of his family with a soft, golden light.

His father with a more serious demeanour was masterfully turning the meat on the grill, the sizzle and aroma filling the air. Beside him, his dad was rubbing his father’s back acting coquettish. He was probably trying to get meat from him.

A/N: Ahem, not that kind of meat. Just saying.

Wen Qinxi sipped wine from his glass, his eyes following the delicate dance of the flames. He looked quite innocent but his hand wasn’t. His hand slipped down Qie Ranzhe’s pant pocket touching his butt.

Qie Xieling hurriedly covered his eyes. These two were really shameless. Qie Ranzhe jolted and moved away from his husband but his waist was grabbed and he was pulled closer.

Wen Danzhe was busy with the food warmer bento, arranging the freshly grilled meat with an artist’s precision. After suffering another round of abuse he couldn’t help but complain.

"Even now you can’t even keep your hands to yourself. Spare this single dog," he said only for Wen Qinxi to laugh at him while saying,

"Single dog by choice. Go and help mum in the kitchen if we are causing you so much suffering."

"Tsk, like father like son. It’s really inherent" he said and Qie Xieling clutched his invisible pearls. How was his name mentioned when he didn’t even do anything?
