Chapter 1036: Chapter 1036: It Was My Body Talking, Not Me
"Si Yu, why are you here? Didn’t I tell Mom and Chenchen to tell you not to come over?" Tang Yue walked up and asked quietly. Jin Yan had taken her medicine and was already asleep.
"You’re not even wearing a coat." Meng Siyu noticed her thin clothing and took off his overcoat, draping it over her.
It was a bit chilly just now, but with the military coat on, she instantly felt warmer. The coat carried Meng Siyu’s scent; she tightened it around her and looked at him with her bright, wide eyes, asking, "Aren’t you cold?"
Having given her his coat, he was still in his regular uniform that seemed quite thin.
"Why don’t you try getting under it?" Meng Siyu suggested while holding her hand.
Tang Yue glanced at him but ignored his teasing. He said, "Wife, since Jin Yan is sick, Lian Qingyang should be the one taking care of her."
His wife was his own, how could he let her sleep alone just because of Jin Yan?
"That silly brother of mine, what does he know about taking care of someone? He’s so clueless and dense. If I, as his sister, don’t step in, how can I just stand by and watch such a good sister-in-law run away?"
"He and Xiao Yan clearly have mutual feelings, but this barrier has kept them from breaking through for years. Who knows how long it will be before they finally become a couple?"
Tang Yue spoke about this matter, eager to look inside Lian Qingyang’s head to see what on earth he was thinking.
How could someone be so lacking in emotional intelligence?
He’s not stupid, though. He’s so clever in business, handles matters so well, but when it comes to emotions, he’s like an idiot.
Tang Yue originally felt it wasn’t right to meddle in her own brother’s romantic affairs, but she was anxious.
Jin Yan has waited for so many years, the Jin Family is anxious too. If Jin Yan, in despair, seeks someone else, Tang Yue can’t imagine how Lian Qingyang would react.
"I just want to give them a little push from behind." Tang Yue looked at Meng Siyu with big, earnest eyes, softening her voice, "Si Yu, help me out."
"What do you want to do?" Meng Siyu gazed into Tang Yue’s twinkling eyes, wishing he could present all the goodness in the world before her.
"There are quite a few single employees at the company, right?" Tang Yue playfully winked.
Tang Yue’s words were hardly spoken when Meng Siyu grasped her idea, responding, "You want to find someone for a blind date with Jin Yan to stimulate Xiao Yang?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Tang Yue nodded vigorously.
Tang Yue grinned, showing her neat and white teeth. Her dark almond eyes sparkled, and the oversized military coat made her look even more petite and delicate. Her coy and flattering smile dazzled Meng Siyu’s eyes.
Meng Siyu fell silent.
Tang Yue tugged at his hand, shaking it while speaking coyly, "Si Yu, I know you all are always willing to help others. To make Xiao Yang and Xiao Yan a happy couple is a great blessing. Surely, you’ll agree to such a good deed, right?"
"Agreeing isn’t out of the question." Meng Siyu feigned seriousness, "But what’s in it for me?"
"Xiao Yang is my own brother." Tang Yue blinked, reminding him.
Meng Siyu nodded, "I know, so I haven’t asked for money, right? You’re Xiao Yang’s sister. If I help him, shouldn’t you help me too?"
Tang Yue’s heart skipped a beat.
Meng Siyu leaned in, whispered something in her ear, and her face instantly flushed red.
"Wifey, look, there are many people in the company. They also want to find a wife. If I don’t find a suitable one, what if someone actually takes a liking to Xiao Yan?" Meng Siyu spoke slowly.
"No way. Xiao Yan is the daughter-in-law my mom favors, the sister-in-law I prefer, and the person Xiao Yang loves. How can we let someone else be interested in her?" Tang Yue instinctively denied.
"Exactly..."
Meng Siyu’s deep eyes looked at Tang Yue with a troubled expression, "So, I need to carefully think about the candidate."
Tang Yue scrutinized Meng Siyu with suspicion, asking, "You aren’t trying to take advantage of me, are you?"
"Do you really think I’m that kind of person?" Meng Siyu replied earnestly, "I genuinely am considering it for Xiao Yang’s sake. To me, you’re the most beautiful, but Xiao Yan isn’t bad-looking either. If someone in the company falls for her, what can I do?"
With Meng Siyu radiating righteousness, Tang Yue realized she might have misunderstood him. She awkwardly cleared her throat, saying, "Okay, okay, I thought wrong."
Wifey, you’re the most beautiful.
The way it sounded coming from Meng Siyu’s mouth, why did it feel so pleasant?
Tang Yue cast him a sidelong glance, "Xiao Yan isn’t just not bad; she’s really pretty. So, choose a good candidate, and once Xiao Yan is discharged, we can start the matchmaking plan."
"So, wifey agrees?" Meng Siyu beamed.
"Ow!"
The joy on Meng Siyu’s face barely appeared before he felt a sharp pinch on his waist. Even though it was just a little pain, to Meng Siyu, it felt like a light drizzle, but he always played along with Tang Yue, crying out exaggeratedly.
"Who agreed? How come, asking you to do a favor, you expect something in return?"
Tang Yue puffed her cheeks, looking angry.
"No." Meng Siyu quickly denied. If he dared admit that, Tang Yue wouldn’t let him sleep in the bed for a month.
"Weren’t you threatening me just now?" Tang Yue countered.
"It wasn’t me speaking just now." Meng Siyu replied without blinking, in a serious manner, "Wifey, do you really see me as that kind of person?"
Yes, you are!
Tang Yue accused Meng Siyu with her eyes. Meng Siyu had spared no effort to please her. Those shameful actions, Tang Yue didn’t even dare to think about.
Even as someone reborn, when it came to this aspect, Tang Yue was still exceedingly shy.
"Wifey." Meng Siyu donned a face of grievance.
That cool and stern appearance, yet so pretendingly pitiful, how could this image not be eye-searing? It completely overturned her impression of Mr. Cold-Hearted!
No, in front of her, Meng Siyu no longer had a cold-hearted image. She couldn’t even recall his stern face.
"The one speaking a while ago had to be my body, speaking by itself." Meng Siyu stated earnestly.
"So, your mind doesn’t think, your mouth speaks on its own, and you can’t control it?" Tang Yue counter-questioned.
Under Tang Yue’s disdainful gaze, Meng Siyu confidently nodded.
No eyes to see.
Tang Yue couldn’t help but cover her face, saying, "Meng Siyu, I should really let your employees see you like this."
