560 The end of the peaches saga
Zi Xingxi couldn’t help but shake her head unwilling to look at her greedy husband. How hungry was he?
With her hand covering her face she asked, “Why would you eat her peaches? She has been talking about it for a very long time,” in a low whisper.
“It wasn’t on purpose,” he said grabbing her other hand for her to touch his belly before continuing, “my tummy had been growling in hunger plus my stomach is almost sticking to my back. I was very hungry for some reason.”
Grandma Lin couldn’t help but glare at her son who started all of this. That concoction was no joke especially when alcohol was added to the mix.
“It’s my fault for not locking it up. You don’t have to worry about it,” she said and Yeoh Jun felt even worse.
“No no, I feel bad. I need to compensate you for it. How about this? I have a bottle of peach wine here?” said Zi Xingxi dealing with the matter like when she dealt with people after Zi Han caused trouble.
“Ah, no ne-,” said Grandma Lin before Lin Ruoxi called out,
“Mum.” Grandma Lin sighed and thanked Zi Xingxi. The reason why Lin Ruoxi said that was because she knew Zi Xingxi wouldn’t let it go. It was best they end it here before Zi Xingxi took out more valuable things to compensate for a few peaches.
With that said the peaches incident came to an end that is except for Yeoh Jun. He knew how dearly Zi Xingxi held wine in her heart. She had the biggest collection known to man, it’s just that she kept her best collection as far away as possible from the little goblin that she gave birth to and her father.
.....
Now that she had given up a rare peach wine bottle she had kept for who knows how long, he knew that the price, later on, would be very high.
“Okay, let’s eat,” said Grandma Lin and the men who were greedily staring at the food looked like they had been granted amnesty.
The table felt silent for a short moment with the only sound coming from the cutlery and dishing spoons. Yeoh Jun first placed food on Zi Xingxi’s plate trying to butter her up but he would have to do more than that.
Yi Zhen was also inspired to coax his wife but these women were really not buying this sugar-coated sweetness.
Zi Han on the other hand had bigger problems. While others coaxed by piling their partner’s plates with food his man was messing with him underneath the table.
It started with Yi Chen’s hand on his thigh rubbing gently as though to soothe him. Zi Han threw that hand away but soon enough he was back again and this time it was the inner thigh.
Zi Han jolted and dropped his chopsticks before glaring at Yi Chen. Yi Chen kept a straight face while placing some egg and scallion crepe on Zi Han’s plate like he wasn’t the one touching him just now.
Zi Han wanted to say something but he just parted his lips when Yi Chen leaned in closer like he knew he wanted to say something.
He moved so close that Zi Han’s lips accidentally brushed past his ear lobe.
Zi Han wanted to say not so close but he found himself glancing at that ear lobe and suddenly having the urge to take a bite.
Yi Chen turned his head slightly and mouthed, “If you keep staring, I am going to get hard.”
The two of them locked gazes staring at each other hard with the sexual tension between them simmering like a lake of lava deep in the crate of a volcano. Zi Han suddenly felt very thirsty thus he licked his lower lip and gulped with his Adam’s apple bobbing. He was obviously thirsty as fuck. It was written all over his face.
Having lured the fish into his trap, Yi Chen bit his lower lip, with a slight quirk at the corner of his mouth.
“Ahem, hem... hem,” were the sounds of Yeoh Jun harshly clearing his throat seeing these two going too far.
Ming Ming looked at this uncle as she scratched her face and said, “Uncle it’s the peaches. It must be stuck in your throat. Nana said that if we eat the peaches without permission, they will get stuck in your throat and a peach tree will sprout.”
Yeoh Jun, “...”
Everybody couldn’t help but laugh at this obvious lie grandma Lin used to prevent anyone from robbing the peaches.
Yeoh Jun decided to indulge this little girl and asked, “Then what is the cure?”
Ming Ming tried to recall and when she did recall it she said, “Nana said that you have to drink bitter gourd juice three times a day and confess your crime in the ancestral hall.”
Yeoh Jun, “...”
The man who couldn’t stand bitter things just like his sun almost cried tears of blood. He wouldn’t be able to survive through a single sip.
While Yeoh Jun was shivering subconsciously trying to get the thought of drinking that stuff out of his mind, Zi Han was removing Yi Chen’s hand from his thigh before whispering,
“Keep your hands to yourself.”
Yi Chen was obedient, almost too obedient for Zi Han to feel at ease. Sure enough, Yi Chen didn’t disappoint. He placed his leg over Zi Han’s obediently keeping his hands to himself.
Zi Han, “...”
What could he do? The man had found a loophole to exploit. Zi Han couldn’t believe it. The shamelessness in this man was upgrading each day. Ever since he found Yi Chen in the Republic, the man was even more unrestrained and would flirt with him at any chance he could get like right now.
While these two were flirting while eating, Yi Youxi exclaimed when he saw that he couldn’t connect to StarNet. He knew his mum had nothing to do with it but she couldn’t help but call out to his mum his tone accusatory.
“Mum! I can’t connect to StarNet, ugh. Is this because of the tomato thing? I promise I will dice them to perfection next time just please turn it back on.”
Lin Ruoxi, “...”
