Chapter 350: Chapter 350: Asura Field (Part 2)

In that instant, Chen Yan’s brain whirred into motion.

What to do?

Now that Lu Man had returned, she was even coming to his home.

If it came to light that he and Yu Qiao Qiao were cohabitating, that... would be a disaster.

Under the pressure, Chen Yan’s thoughts raced, and suddenly, an idea struck him.

He quickly composed himself, putting on a performance of surprise straight out of a textbook, "Really?! Where are you now? Shall I come pick you up?!"

Hearing Chen Yan’s voice, Lu Man indeed noticed nothing amiss. She said with a laugh, "I just got off the plane."

"I called you as soon as I landed. How about it? Aren’t you happy?"

Chen Yan truly was overjoyed!

Because this meant he wasn’t completely at a disadvantage; he had ample time to smooth over the situation.

With this in mind, Chen Yan said, "Then wait for me at the airport, I’ll drive there to pick you up now, ok?"

Hearing her beloved speak so thoughtfully, a sweetness filled Lu Man’s heart.

However, as she glanced at the time, which showed it to be 10 PM, the idea of having Chen Yan run back and forth at this hour – although she was a bit of a drama queen, she couldn’t help but feel sympathy for him. So she said, "No need. Just wait at home for me, that’ll do~"

Upon hearing Lu Man’s words, Chen Yan took the chance to slide down the slope, "Alright. Then I’ll wait for you at home."

After finishing the chat with Lu Man, Chen Yan hung up the phone.

He took two deep breaths, then stepped out of the bedroom.

Exiting the room, he encountered Yu Qiao Qiao, who was cleaning the living room.

Perhaps for the convenience of cleaning, Yu Qiao Qiao had put her hair up in a bun, with just two strands hanging by her ears, fluttering lightly as she moved. This added a touch of feminine gentleness to her cuteness.

Chen Yan coughed and then told Yu Qiao Qiao, "Qiao Qiao, I need to step out for a bit."

Upon hearing Chen Yan’s words, Yu Qiao Qiao acknowledged with an "Oh" before lifting her head to ask, "Are you going to meet Sister Man Man?"

Chen Yan nodded, "Yes. She just came back from the provincial city. It’s quite late, so I’ll go pick her up. We’ll have a chat."

Hearing his words, Yu Qiao Qiao obediently nodded, then she put down her mop, approached Chen Yan, and carefully wiped her hands on her apron to avoid soiling his clothes. Then, she reached out and adjusted his collar.

After straightening it out, she tiptoed and lightly pressed her lips against his.

Their lips parted as quickly as they touched. With her face flushing, Yu Qiao Qiao lowered her head and said, "Then you go and come back soon. I’ll wait for you at home."

This was the first time Yu Qiao Qiao had taken such initiative, which took Chen Yan by surprise.

After all... although Yu Qiao Qiao really liked him, due to her temperament, she had always been a bit shy and timid, which made her seem passive.

But whether it was the kindness Chen Yan had shown her that night, which she remembered fondly,

Or the courage she showed when stepping forward to protect him, causing a shift in her mindset;

In any case, she took the initiative to kiss Chen Yan.

Chen Yan recalled that sweet kiss in his mind and couldn’t help but show a smile on his face.

He was about to agree with her.

But at that moment, his intelligence seemed to reach a higher ground.

He suddenly realized that Lu Man was coming to see him! She even mentioned... missing him.

Would that not have them up until dawn?

How could Chen Yan possibly return home that night!

So, with that thought, Chen Yan changed his tone and said, "Hmm. I probably won’t be coming home to stay tonight."

Hearing Chen Yan’s words, Yu Qiao Qiao was taken aback before asking in confusion, "But... you’re just going to pick up Sister Man Man and have a chat. Why won’t you come back home?"

Listening to Yu Qiao Qiao’s question, Chen Yan’s brain kicked into overdrive.

"Right. As you know, your Sister Man Man is a night owl. After she arrives, she’ll likely want to talk for a while."

"By then, it’ll be quite late. I’ll come back and disturb you. So it’s better that I don’t return."

Hearing Chen Yan’s reasoning, Yu Qiao Qiao shook her head, "It won’t be a disturbance."

She looked up at Chen Yan with timid eyes and said, "I feel more at ease when you’re home."

Faced with Yu Qiao Qiao’s gaze, Chen Yan was on the verge of faltering.

But... if he caved in at a moment like this, wouldn’t all be lost?!

So, Chen Yan gently hugged her and whispered, "Qiao Qiao, please don’t make things difficult for me."

"Guys, we need some space, and we need time for ourselves too."

"When I’m out working on my career, if there are worries in my heart, it makes me uncomfortable."

"So... I’m going to stay at my own place tonight and return tomorrow, ok?"

Hearing Chen Yan’s earnest words, even though her heart harbored many grievances, Yu Qiao Qiao ultimately nodded her head.

Finally managing to get through the most important part of this tricky situation, Chen Yan comforted Yu Qiao Qiao a little more, checked the time, and seeing that he was almost late, he hurriedly said goodbye to Yu Qiao Qiao and left, catching a taxi straight to his own home.

Arriving at his apartment complex, Chen Yan got out of the taxi and ran back to his apartment.

He was panting as he unlocked the door and began cleaning up – the place looked dusty as it had been uninhabited for over ten days.

Lu Man’s astute personality meant she could probably spot something amiss with just a glance.

After busying himself for a while, Chen Yan took a shower and then, wrapped in a towel, walked out to dry his hair while waiting for Lu Man.

Not five minutes later, his door was knocked on "thump, thump, thump." Chen Yan went to the door and opened it.

Lu Man stood at the doorway, clad in a black trench coat with tight black pants and sunglasses – stylish and beautiful.

Upon seeing Chen Yan, she took off her glasses and, like a child, cheerfully jumped into his arms, giggly saying, "Chen Yan~ Did you miss me?"

Chen Yan, while holding her pert bottom allowing her to cling like a koala to him, turned to close the door, then smiled and said, "Of course, I missed you. Silly."

Lu Man, with her arms around Chen Yan’s neck and captivating peachy eyes, asked coyly, "Where did you miss me?"

Perhaps it was due to the pampering she received from Chen Yan these past days, but Lu Man had grown increasingly flirtatious and more enchanting, leaving Chen Yan struggling to resist her allure.

He grinned mischievously and said, "You could give it a try."

As he spoke, Chen Yan carried her towards the bedroom and fell onto the bed with her...

At an age when love was irresistible and having not seen each other for so long, they ignited like dry wood tossed onto a blazing fire, burning intensely.

Only water could extinguish such a flame...

In Lu Man’s absence, Chen Yan had consumed two or three Stamina Potions, which meant he was now even more vigorous and enduring. The result was Lu Man’s soaring canticles rising in wave after wave...

And so, after one round, then two, there was no third – Lu Man succumbed to exhaustion and slept deeply.

Apparently, in Chen Yan’s presence, this young lady’s bravado was now outclassed everywhere else.

After tiring out Lu Man, Chen Yan got up, tucked her in, then wrapped a towel around himself and left the bedroom.

Sitting in the living room for a while, he checked his phone – Yu Qiao Qiao hadn’t messaged him.

Yet, for some reason, Chen Yan felt as if Yu Qiao Qiao had not gone to sleep; instead, she seemed to wait tirelessly for him at her home.

Chen Yan scratched his head, feeling annoyed.

He took out his phone and opened the Virtual Girlfriend Simulator to check.

Yu Qiao Qiao’s pixelated avatar was at home, but instead of the sleeping ’Zzz’ icon above her head, there was a "sleepless" sign.

Chen Yan frowned slightly.

After some thought, he walked back into the bedroom to take another look at Lu Man.

Lu Man was sleeping soundly and was unlikely to wake up anytime soon.

Seeing this, Chen Yan got dressed in the bathroom, then quietly opened the door and left his home.

He drove back to Yu Qiao Qiao’s house.

Parking his car downstairs, Chen Yan could see a faint light still on in Yu Qiao Qiao’s apartment.

With a light sigh, he ascended the stairs.

Unlocking the door with his key, Chen Yan entered.

Yu Qiao Qiao wasn’t in the living room; she was clearly not the kind of girl who would ignore his reasoning.

After contemplating, Chen Yan pulled out his phone to check on Zhao Ying’s pixelated avatar.

Not sure if it was due to the plethora of gossip that night, but Zhao Ying was already asleep.

Chen Yan breathed a sigh of relief, then tiptoed to Yu Qiao Qiao’s door and gently pushed it open.

As the door opened and the dim light spilled out, there sat Yu Qiao Qiao, donned in pink pajamas, sitting at the edge of the bed, blankly staring at the wall.

When she heard the door opening, her gaze instinctively shifted.

Chen Yan might have appeared tired to her at first glance, a bit dull and devoid of energy.

But as soon as she saw Chen Yan standing at her doorway, her eyes suddenly burst with vibrancy.

It was as if Chen Yan had turned her grayscale world into one filled with color...

--------------

Yu Qiao Qiao wasn’t in the living room; she was clearly not the type of girl to avoid listening to reason from Chen Yan.

After contemplating, Chen Yan pulled out his phone to check on Zhao Ying’s pixelated avatar.

Not sure if it was due to the plentiful gossip that night, but Zhao Ying was already asleep.

Chen Yan exhaled in relief, then tread softly to Yu Qiao Qiao’s door and gently opened it.

As the door swung open and the faint light shone through, there sat Yu Qiao Qiao, attired in pink pajamas, perched on the edge of her bed, staring vacantly at the wall.

Upon hearing the door, her gaze instinctively searched.

Initially, Chen Yan’s presence might have appeared weary to her, slightly vacant and lusterless.

But the moment she saw Chen Yan at her doorway, her eyes immediately teemed with life.

It was as if Chen Yan had painted her world with color from a monochrome palette...
