Chapter 90.2 - Goodnight, Sweetheart

Chapter 90.2 — Goodnight, Sweetheart

Edited by: Larkspur

“So what? Do you think I’m on their side? If you have the ability to, say it on their faces. After all, it has nothing to do with me. Tomorrow is Father’s funeral so I won’t argue with you guys. Behave yourselves!” Qin Zhenyi tried his best to sound confident but once he recounted Su Yanyi’s ambiguous mien, he was a bit guilty still. He didn’t want to waste more time here and turned around to leave.

In reality, Qin Zhenyi had thought hard about his words. Not only did he want to clear his name, but also wanted to bring trouble to others. He wanted to shift Qin Zhenren and Qin Zhenli’s target to Su Yanyi and Qin Jiran. He didn’t want the two to join hands to go against him. Yet, if it was Qin Jiran and Su Yanyi, he would gladly do so.

At the same time, Su Yanyi was paying attention to Qin Family’s response. She received continuous news on the Qin Family and the discussion among the three brothers in the Chairman’s office.

When she was told about Qin Zhenyi’s response, Su Yanyi’s face turned frigid. She knew that this man wasn’t good news and only wanted to bring them trouble. Well, it remained to be seen if he had the ability after all!

At this time, Qin Jiran was still trying to shoot his scenes. In order to expedite the progress of the filming, Qin Jiran couldn’t even spare time to eat these days. Plus, he had been working overtime until very late. Su Yanyi was very unhappy about this but she didn’t say anything. Instead, she had Su Family’s servants make some food for him. While she was incredibly considerate, it earned Qin Jiran everyone’s envy on the set.

It was quite late by the time an exhausted Qin Jiran returned home. The light in the living room was still on, clearly left for him. When he walked upstairs and opened the door, Su Yanyi was already asleep. As she laid on the huge bed, she appeared tiny and delicate. All Qin Jiran did was just stare at her and felt his fatigue disappear. His heart calmed down.

He walked softly and quietly to the bathroom. He showered and changed before coming out. Qin Jiran then laid on the bed, shifting a bit and some more. He moved himself to Su Yanyi’s side and reached over to pull her in his arms. Then, he softly landed a kiss on Su Yanyi’s forehead.

“Goodnight, my sweetheart.” Perhaps, it was only during this time that Qin Jiran could dare address Su Yanyi like this. She was his sweetheart, forever!

Around this time, Su Yanyi who was about to open her eyes to greet him had suddenly changed her mind. She continued to pretend to be asleep.

Sweetheart? Cough, cough. Su Yanyi felt like this endearment was overly corny and only Mother Su had called her that when she was a child. Plus, he said sweetheart in such a low and sexy voice. She couldn’t take this!

While the two were unaware of this, Su Yanyi’s ear tips had secretly hued red…

Perhaps because of over-exhaustion, but Qin Jiran quickly fell asleep. However, Su Yanyi was unable to fall asleep. The words ‘my sweetheart’ kept echoing in her ears to the point that she was a bit infuriated!

Su Yanyi suddenly opened her eyes. Even in the dark bedroom, it felt unusually bright. She stared straight at slumbering Qin Jiran and wanted to say something. Yet, when she saw the man’s fatigued face, she held down her urge to do so. The little anger in her immediately died down as well.

“Sigh, what a slow man!” He would only dare to say such corny things during this time. At least have the guts to say it on her face!

However, the devil within Su Yanyi was proud. She blinked her eyes and concentrated on the man’s looks then she seemed to be immersed in him. She suddenly got up and left a kiss by the corner of the man’s lips.

“Goodnight.” Sweetheart and whatnot were too corny and she couldn’t say it. But, she could say goodnight to him.

Su Yanyi happily thought of this but heard the system’s voice unexpectedly.

Congratulations to Master for completing the hidden mission: secretly kissing Mr. Master. You obtained the plant growth liquid and can increase the growth of any plants by ten times. If you use it on the magical plant, it can increase the growth by 30 times. Please use it carefully. The reward will automatically be stored in your storage space. Please check it out, Master.

This was the first time Su Yanyi found out that a sneak kiss was a mission! However, with the notification that she had completed the hidden mission of sneak kiss, she wasn’t as surprised anymore. However, this mission’s reward made her think of the upgrading rewards which she’d neglected. What is that magical seed? She still had no idea.

Maybe she should find a time to plant the seed and see? She recalled a huge open space in the back garden and hopefully, nothing weird would sprout from it.

Su Yanyi gradually fell asleep when she was surrounded by the familiar scent. She had waited for him for so long and he finally came back. It really hurt to dry her own hair. It’s so annoying how he had to return at a later time!

In the morning, Su Yanyi woke up to her usual sleeping position. She half lied on Qin Jiran and didn’t seem to shift her posture. She was really well-behaved.

“Good morning.” Came the deep male voice and the voice which she was more and more accustomed to. She couldn’t help but think of the ‘goodnight’ she said last night. However, she felt like there was something different about the two words that were being said.

Su Yanyi thought about it and got an answer. There wasn’t the term of endearment. Where was ‘my sweetheart’ ?

Su Yanyi pursed her lips. Although she understood, she wouldn’t mention it. She didn’t want such a corny endearment!

Once they got out of bed, they went about their morning exercises. Su Yanyi’s skills were getting better and better. After a few rounds, Su Yanmo walked over as well. When he saw the two sparring, his eyes brightened, wanting to join as well.

Su Yanyi was a no-nonsense person. He aimed for a gap between them and waved his fist over. He directly squeezed Su Yanyi out of the combat and started to fight Qin Jiran.

Su Yanyi wasn’t surprised either. With a cold face, she walked to the side to spectate. Elder Brother was a great combater. Since he’d been home for many days, it’s about time for him to exercise.

When the two started to battle, Qin Jiran clearly was at a disadvantage. Su Yanmo’s skills were much better than Qin Jiran and Su Yanyi’s. His skills were acquired through hands-on battle experiences. Not only was Su Yanyi in charge of the mercenary company’s businesses, she frequently went on missions with the mercenaries. She had an abundance of experiences, something Qin Jiran lacked.

However, Qin Jiran wasn’t too weak. He was powerful and the two were just practicing, so there weren’t any overly excessive moves. He had been able to deal with the moves, though with some reluctance.

But when Su Yanyi saw that Su Yanmo was about to punch the corner of Qin Jiran’s mouth, she couldn’t hold it in anymore. She rushed over and landed a punch, joining the battle. Not only did she block Su Yanmo’s punch, but she also helped Qin Jiran in beating Su Yanmo.

Su Yanmo raised his eyebrows. His action was about 70% similar to Su Yanyi’s but he didn’t stop. He valiantly fought the two and wasn’t in the least bit of disadvantage still.

The three fought for a bit before the old man who was used to morning exercises came to watch the show. However, he was old so he could only view the match on the side.

“Girl, kick him. Don’t be polite!”

“Xiao Ran, don’t constrain yourself. Punch him in the face. Harshly hit him!”

“Xiao Mo, did you not have breakfast? How come you’re not punching hard enough?”

“There are two of you guys. You guys need to learn to cooperate with each other. How come you guys can’t? I really need to train you guys!”

The old man yelled loudly and this caught Mother and Father Su’s attentions over. The whole family gathered together for morning exercises again.

Su Yanyi and Qin Jiran, as well as Su Yanmo, didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at the old man’s words. They all slowed down and in the end, Su Yanyi stopped out of anger. She glared at her grandfather and with a cold face said, “Grandfather, you’re messing us up.”

“Hahah, how am I messing you guys up? I’m not satisfied with just looking at you guys. If it weren’t for my age, I would have no problem fighting the three of you!” Grandfather Su wasn’t angry. Instead, he happily chuckled out loud.

“A real man doesn’t boast about his past achievements!” Su Yanyi obviously knew how powerful her grandfather was. After all, a lot of her martial arts were taught by him.

“Right, Grandfather is old. I am just eager for you to be pregnant and give me a grandchild. Grandfather would be pleased.” Grandfather Su naturally had to diss her since his granddaughter had done that!
