Chapter 160: Everyday Romance With Yanyan

Qin Jiang staggered out holding the Young Mistress, his face already marked with several obvious and subtle kisses from the Young Mistress.

With a face full of kiss marks and ears burning a hot blush, Qin Jiang finally got the Young Mistress into the car.

“Zhou Ning! Didn’t I tell you to watch Yanyan and not let her drink too much?”

Whether in the previous life or this one, Qin Jiang had rarely seen Yan Liang drink. She was always so strong and rational it seemed she had no weaknesses.

Someone like her would never touch alcohol.

And Zhou Ning, who had been by Yanyan’s side longer than he had, should have known about this weakness and stopped her in time.

“The Young Mistress wanted to drink, how could I dare interfere, Mr. Qin…”

“Actually, the Young Mistress having a little wine to relax would be good for her mind and body.”

“The Young Mistress is always too tense and her reason outweighs everything, yet she wasn’t born as an emotionless machine…“

But disappointment accumulated.

She had been consumed by despair.

And so she was forced up to this cold, no-way-out high position.

If she didn’t take that position, how could she possibly continue living in a predatory conglomerate like the Yan family?

Human instinct included the desire to survive.

Moreover, after Young Mistress Yan was thrown into the organization, her only faith became… “she must survive”!!

She said those words were told to her by someone she cared about most.

In the end, it became the faith that kept her alive during the organization’s dark days.

Qin Jiang had known too little about Yanyan in his previous life. Although in this life he had tried to enter her heart, it was mostly the Young Mistress who took the initiative—he often passively accepted the Young Mistress’s love.

And the Young Mistress was easily satisfied.

As if as long as he could accept her, simply nodding a little at her devotion would be enough to make her content.

In the Young Mistress’s world, all along, there had always been only Qin Jiang.

She didn’t dare to get drunk because Jiang was not by her side, and there was no one to give her a shoulder to act spoiled on.

But now, she could afford to.

Wasn’t that a kind of happiness?

And at that moment, Yan Zuo, who was still at the free shooting range wearing special gear, could only watch in disbelief as his own elder sister was carried off in a koala-like embrace by Qin Jiang?

Wait… what about him?

He’s still at the shooting range!!

“Mm, I’ll take good care of Yanyan.”

Qin Jiang nodded earnestly. Of course… if one ignored the kiss marks all over his face, the scene would seem more solemn.

Qin Jiang climbed into the car.

As soon as they entered, Yanyan clung to him like a woman who couldn’t be parted from him, her body soft and clingy, obediently nestling into Qin Jiang’s arms.

“Hubby… Yanyan’s tummy is hungry~”

“Wants to eat something.”

Yan Liang, during her long time in the organization, trained herself most of all in restraint—restraining all desires.

That included appetite.

For the sake of completing missions, even if she were starving, she had to hold back. When extreme hunger hit, even the dirty soil on the ground could become temporary food to fill her stomach.

But in front of Qin Jiang, Jiang would cook many delicious things for her, and she gradually grew to love the feeling of her taste buds being wrapped in all sorts of wonderful flavors.

It turned out that being a living, breathing person made life so free and vibrant.

“Yanyan, what do you want to eat?”

“I’ll cook for you. We haven’t gone to the supermarket in a long time—shall I take you this time?”

Qin Jiang didn’t want to go back to Liangyue Manor and roll around with the Young Mistress again. He enjoyed the moments of mutual dependency between lovers.

Like an ordinary couple, enjoying the daily necessities, enjoying life as two.

“Okay~”

Yan Liang obediently nodded, but remained clinging to Qin Jiang.

Like a little koala that couldn’t leave him.

They were going to the supermarket.

On the way back, the nearest high-end supermarket had been rapidly emptied.

When Qin Jiang and Yan Liang arrived at the supermarket, there were people coming and going, but Qin Jiang could tell at a glance they were all bodyguards from the Yan family in disguise.

Yan Liang was again scooped into the shopping cart by Qin Jiang’s arms, and he pushed the Young Mistress around selecting food.

“Yanyan, what do you want for dinner tonight?”

“How about homecooked dishes—scrambled eggs with tomatoes and fish-flavored eggplant?”

“Braised spare ribs?”

Qin Jiang and Yan Liang weaved through the supermarket’s grocery aisles, preparing to get some seasonings.

After the kitchen at home exploded last time, although many ingredients had been restocked.

The seasonings used by the Liangyue Manor’s chef weren’t very homey.

Qin Jiang wanted to give Yan Liang a sense of home, so he pushed the cart and started looking for the seasonings he used back at his foster parents’ house.

For a moment, he felt a pang of homesickness and missed them.

“Jiang… what are you thinking?”

“Yanyan, I’m a bit homesick. I wonder how my foster Mom and Dad and my sisters are doing…”

Qin Jiang sincerely wanted to find them, mainly because he wanted to provide for them in their old age.

He had grown up, and his foster parents had grown old.

The two older sisters and the tsundere little sister who had deliberately avoided him must have had a hard time living on their own.

He hadn’t had the means before.

But now he was no longer the Qin Jiang who had been constrained by the Qin family at every turn.

He wanted to honor his parents and reunite his sisters.

“I know, they won’t be living poorly…”

“I spent a billion to buy you from them, after all. Jiang, don’t blame me for offering too little. I had just taken over the Yan Group and that was all the liquid funds I had…”

And she had used that to buy Qin Jiang from Jiang’s parents!

Unfortunately, before she could pick him up, the Qin family intercepted him first… and they chose exactly when her influence wasn’t strong enough to bring Qin Jiang to her side to cause trouble!!

At this, Yanyan’s little fists clenched!
