The moment he began thrusting himself in and out of her willfully, An Xiaoning grabbed his arm and said softly, “Long Tianze is outside.”
Jin Qingyan answered nonchalantly, “So what if he is? He can’t possibly be here for anything serious at such a late hour. We’ll just let him wait.”
He continued with the act.
Realizing that Jin Qingyan did not seem to hear him, Long Tianze decided to lean against the door to try and listen for sounds coming from inside the bedroom, all despite knowing that Jin Qingyan had installed the best soundproofing system in his bedroom. To his disappointment, he could not hear a thing at all.
Could it be that he’s not in?
Long Tianze scurried downstairs and asked Fan Shixin, “Dummy, is your Young Sir really upstairs?”
“Of course, I saw him going upstairs with my own eyes.”
“Is your Young Madam home, too?”
“Yeah.”
Long Tianze immediately understood what was going on. He gestured for Fan Shixin to leave and said, “Go ahead and get busy with what you have to do. I’ll wait for him here.”
“Mr. Long, why are you looking for Young Sir at such a late hour?”
“Nothing much, I just wanted to have a chat with him because I’m too bored.”
Fan Shixin nodded and said, “Just wait here, then. I reckon Young Sir will need about another half an hour before he’d be ready to come downstairs.”
Long Tianze gave him the side-eye and said teasingly, “You’ve become a genius after following him around for so long.”
“That’s true,” said Fan Shixin, exiting the living room with a smile.
As soon as he left, Long Tianze headed upstairs again.
He took a look at the time on his watch and sat cross-legged on the floor outside the bedroom. He then placed his palms together and closed his eyes, as if he were a monk in meditation.
Half an hour later, the door was finally opened.
Clad in his pajamas, Jin Qingyan leaned against the door frame and looked down at Long Tianze. “Are you planning to become a monk?”
Long Tianze opened his eyes slowly and drawled, “Little Eunuch Jin, I arrived long ago and I called you. You’re really good at playing deaf, aren’t you?”
“You’re more like a eunuch. Well, you came at an untimely juncture.”
“Why so?” he answered, asking the obvious.
“What do you think?”
“I’m just a child. How would I know what goes on in the world of you adults?”
Jin Qingyan walked out and closed the door before walking down the stairs. Long Tianze hurriedly followed closely behind and said, “Qingyan, let’s have some drinks.”
“No.”
“I feel like drinking.”
“Go drink on your own, then.” Jin Qingyan sat down on the couch, rested his legs on the coffee table, and opened his eyes to look at Long Tianze. “Fancy you coming here late at night. What’s eating you?”
Long Tianze sat down beside him and said, “Well, it’s a case of domestic violence. My wife abused me…”
“Did she hit you?”
“No, she just gave me the cold shoulder.”
Jin Qingyan knew that they would rarely argue and would usually stick to each other like a pair of lovebirds. Hence, he wondered what happened this time.
“Why did she give you the cold shoulder?”
“We had a tiff.”
“Why?”
Long Tianze teared up while explaining the situation to him, “I went to the Black Genie tonight, and I was in high spirits so I had a bit too much to drink. I was really ecstatic and I began dancing racily with one of the young girls working there. Who knew? Yangyang was there too. Then, that happened…”
Jin Qingyan guffawed insensitively and jested, “Oh no, what do we do? Uh-oh, your wife is upset and doesn’t want to talk to you. You deserve it, hah.”
Seeing that Jin Qingyan did not comfort him and instead even rubbed salt in his wound, Long Tianze chided with a sullen expression, “Jin Qingyan, are you even human? Can’t you see that your buddy here is devastated? How could you still be so heartless as to laugh and mock me?”
“I laughed because of the way you’re acting now. You can’t even handle such a trivial matter. Long Tianze, just what did you eat when you were growing up?”
“Ni (You). ”
“What? Ni (Soil)? No wonder your brains are soiled,” Jin Qingyan teased merrily, for he was in a pleasant mood.
Long Tianze took a deep breath and felt a strong urge to beat Jin Qingyan into a pulp.
“I came here to seek your advice…”
“What advice do you even need? Are you silly? Just get intimate with her and everything will be solved.”
“I can’t even enter the house, how am I supposed to do that?”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk. Poor thing, you can’t even go back to your own home.” After a moment of silence, Jin Qingyan continued, “How about this? I’ll come up with a foolproof solution for you, but you must give me something in return.”
“One hundred thousand dollars?”
“Long Tianze, do I seem like such a money-grubber to you?”
“What do you want in return, then?” asked a puzzled Long Tianze.
Jin Qingyan stuck three fingers out and said, “Three hundred thousand.”
Long Tianze’s jaw dropped and he said, “Jin Qingyan, you’re so shameless. You’re charging me 300 thousand dollars just for coming up with a solution for me. Go to hell. Even 100 thousand was too much.”
“Well, we’re both willing parties. If you’re agreeable to it, I’ll help you solve your problem immediately. If not, you may have the guest room.”
Long Tianze rolled his eyes and said, “Jin Qingyan, you’re becoming more and more relentless with your buddy. We grew up together ever since we were children, how could you have the cheek to… fine, 300 thousand it is. Neither of us should go back on our word. What solution do you have?”
“Just go stay inside the guest room for now. Your wife will come to call you home in less than ten minutes. Don’t come out unless I tell you to.”
Despite being doubtful and apprehensive of his words, Long Tianze still did as he was told.
After he left, Jin Qingyan called Fan Shixin over and whispered something into his ear, after which Fan Shixin lit up with glee and nodded profusely before proceeding to do as instructed.
A few minutes later, Mei Yangyang rushed over, appearing flustered and anxious. Upon the sight of Jin Qingyan, she immediately asked, “Where’s Tianze?”
“You must promise to let him go home before I can tell you.”
“Of course I will,” Mei Yangyang said eagerly.
“He’s in the guest room.”
Mei Yangyang hurriedly zoomed toward the guest room.
Filled with panic, Mei Yangyang rushed in and burst into tears upon the sight of Long Tianze staring at her. She cupped her head in her hands and asked, “Are you out of your mind?”
“Honey…” This Qingyan is really something, Long Tianze thought to himself.
“Good that you’re alright. Let’s go home.”
Long Tianze was dumbfounded. What did she mean?
However, he still exited the room together with her. When they passed by the living room, Jin Qingyan reminded, “Tianze, don’t forget this.”
He stuck three fingers out at Long Tianze.
“Got it.” Joy was written all over Long Tianze’s face as he gave Jin Qingyan a thumbs-up of approval.
Jin Qingyan smirked smugly.
“Why did he stick three fingers out at you?” Mei Yangyang asked after they reached home.
“Ah… nothing much,” Long Tianze answered vaguely.
Once they entered the house, he whipped out his mobile phone and transferred the money to Jin Qingyan.
After he went inside the shower, Mei Yangyang checked his mobile phone. Coincidentally, he received a notification text about the successful transaction.
She immediately rushed inside the washroom and asked him, “Did you transfer 300 thousand dollars to Mr. Jin?”
