Chapter 96

It was already past four in the afternoon, and the scorching sunlight gradually softened. Pedestrians came and went on the pedestrian street, and a couple leaning against each other in the sunlight seemed to form their own world, undisturbed by the outside noise, always calm in their hearts.

"Really nice," Shen Xin murmured softly.

"If you like it, I'll spend more time with you," Fang Tianfeng said involuntarily.

"No backing out!"

"I won't back out."

Shen Xin tilted her head and leaned against Fang Tianfeng's chest. Fang Tianfeng hesitated for a moment, then extended his arm and placed it on her shoulder.

"We are siblings, it's fine," Fang Tianfeng said to himself.

But to outsiders, they looked like a perfect couple.

The warm sunlight and gentle spring breeze were intoxicating, and the embrace of her beloved was even more so. Shen Xin, feeling extremely tired, fell asleep without realizing it.

Not long after, Su Shishi and Xia Xiaoyu walked over. Su Shishi ran to the other side of Fang Tianfeng and, mimicking Shen Xin, tilted her head and leaned into her brother's chest.

Su Shishi squinted her eyes, the sunlight casting a golden halo on her long lashes, and her innocent smile became another beautiful sight on the pedestrian street.

Xia Xiaoyu was also tired. She hesitated for a moment and then sat next to Su Shishi.

Many passersby, seeing this scene, would silently think the same word in their hearts.

"Beast!"

The sunlight gradually weakened, and the pedestrian street grew dim. Shen Xin woke up.

She realized she had been lying in Fang Tianfeng's arms for so long, blushed, sat up straight, and slowly stood up.

"How long did I sleep?"

"About half an hour," Fang Tianfeng said.

Su Shishi lifted her head groggily, squinted at Shen Xin, then looked at Fang Tianfeng, smiled foolishly, leaned in, and gave her brother a light peck on the cheek before burying her head in his chest and continuing to sleep, looking incredibly cute.

Fang Tianfeng smiled and gently combed through Su Shishi's disheveled hair. Su Shishi hummed a few times, indicating she was very comfortable.

After a few more minutes, An Tian Tian and Lu Yuna walked over. An Tian Tian sat next to Fang Tianfeng, exclaiming how tired she was. She then took off her high-heeled sandals, revealing her white, delicate feet. She rubbed them, but soon felt it wasn't appropriate to be seen and quickly put them back on.

"I twisted my ankle just now, and it hurts a bit when I walk," An Tian Tian said, looking at her ankle helplessly.

Fang Tianfeng reached out and placed his hand on her slender, white arm, drawing away the minor pain.

"Wow?" An Tian Tian immediately felt the pain disappear.

"Master, you touched my arm to use your qi to heal me?" An Tian Tian looked at Fang Tianfeng suspiciously.

"Do you think my hands are worth touching your little arms and legs?" Fang Tianfeng said disdainfully.

"Are you mocking me?" An Tian Tian was furious.

Fang Tianfeng ignored her.

"Fine, I'm just too soft-hearted. I'm tired, let me lean on you; the back of the chair is uncomfortable," An Tian Tian pouted, leaned against Fang Tianfeng, and, like Shen Xin, used her bag to press down the hem of her skirt to prevent it from showing.

Lu Yuna sat a bit away from Fang Tianfeng.

After resting for a while, An Tian Tian was full of energy and asked, "What are we having for dinner?"

She then took out the beef jerky she had just bought and distributed it to everyone, except Fang Tianfeng.

Fang Tianfeng reached out and grabbed one, tearing it open and eating it.

"Expenses to be reimbursed!" An Tian Tian said.

"Fat chance," Fang Tianfeng said, chewing slowly. To be honest, An Tian Tian, the foodie, had excellent taste in food.

An Tian Tian suddenly narrowed her eyes, a hint of ferocity in them, and stared at Fang Tianfeng. "Don't push me! No one can take An Tian Tian's snacks without paying a price!"

"Want to skip dinner?" Fang Tianfeng grabbed another piece of beef jerky.

"Except for the master!" An Tian Tian immediately put on a sycophantic smile, offering a few pieces of beef jerky to Fang Tianfeng and said, "Master, go ahead and eat. What's mine is yours! My second greatest quality is being generous!"

Fang Tianfeng smiled and asked, "What's your greatest quality?"

An Tian Tian looked at Fang Tianfeng with disdain, raised her head, and said, "Of course, it's beauty!"

"You're hopeless!" Fang Tianfeng shook his head helplessly.

"Let's continue discussing the most important topic: what are we having for dinner?" An Tian Tian said.

"Let's have seafood. The seafood at Tianyue Hotel is quite famous," Shen Xin said.

An Tian Tian nodded in agreement and asked, "The two large lobsters last time, were they from Tianyue Hotel? The taste of lobster still lingers on my tongue."

"Haven't you brushed your teeth in half a month?" Fang Tianfeng asked.

"Master!" An Tian Tian waved her small fist and lightly hit Fang Tianfeng's shoulder.

Su Shishi immediately woke up, her eyes wide and bright, and angrily said, "You dare to hit my brother?"

An Tian Tian smiled sheepishly, touched Su Shishi's rosy cheek, and said, "No, I wouldn't make Shishi angry."

"Turns out you were just being affectionate with my brother." Su Shishi rubbed her eyes, sat up, and yawned, completely ignoring the slightly flustered An Tian Tian.

Xia Xiaoyu covered her mouth and giggled.

An Tian Tian immediately shifted her target, huffed, and asked, "Xiaoyu, are you laughing at me too?"

Xia Xiaoyu, frightened, quickly shrank her neck, indicating she didn't dare.

"Hmph!" An Tian Tian's eyes darted around, as if she had some devious idea.

Xia Xiaoyu's body trembled, sensing an ominous premonition.

The six of them sat for a while longer, then drove to Tianyue Hotel. Fang Tianfeng didn't want to trouble Zhang Bowen, so he had Shen Xin book a private room.

As soon as Fang Tianfeng appeared at Tianyue Hotel, he was recognized by several waiters. They didn't dare to call him "Master" but politely addressed him as Mr. Fang.

Apart from Shen Xin, the other four women curiously observed Fang Tianfeng, surprised by his influence here.

An Tian Tian asked, "No wonder Tianyue Hotel used to send you seafood. What's your relationship with this hotel?"

"I'm friends with the owner."

"Oh." An Tian Tian nodded.

Lu Yuna, however, was skeptical. She didn't believe a security guard for a villa had the qualifications to know the owner of such a high-end hotel, suspecting Fang Tianfeng was just putting on a show.

After entering the private room and ordering the dishes, Manager Ma personally came over, bringing a bottle of Hungarian Tokaji Aszú. He said he had contacted Mr. Zhang, but Mr. Zhang couldn't make it, so he specially sent a bottle of wine suitable for ladies and offered to waive the bill.

Fang Tianfeng refused the waiver, so Manager Ma offered a 60% discount, which Fang Tianfeng accepted.

None of the others, except Shen Xin, recognized the brand of the wine, but An Tian Tian, though unfamiliar with it, had a discerning palate and quickly became addicted, pestering Fang Tianfeng for another bottle.

Fang Tianfeng, not knowing the price, asked the waiter for another bottle. The waiter returned with a bottle of the same wine, saying it was also a gift from Mr. Zhang.

Lu Yuna, though she didn't say anything, thought to herself, "It's just two bottles of wine, what's the big deal? It's from Hungary, not as expensive as French red wine. If he really knew the owner, why wouldn't the owner come to toast? She suspected Fang Tianfeng was just putting on a show.

However, Lu Yuna, though straightforward, didn't point it out, just disliking Fang Tianfeng's pretentiousness.

They had two bottles of Tokaji Aszú. An Tian Tian drank an entire bottle by herself, Shen Xin only had two glasses, and Fang Tianfeng, hearing it was suitable for ladies, didn't taste it, focusing on eating seafood. The remaining wine was shared by Su Shishi, Xia Xiaoyu, and Lu Yuna.

The six of them chatted and ate, their relationships growing closer.

Seafood is better paired with white wine or white wine, not beer. Fang Tianfeng didn't like foreign wines, and drinking white wine alone wasn't much fun, so he didn't drink at all.

An Tian Tian, who had drunk a bit too much, saw that Fang Tianfeng hadn't touched a drop of alcohol and suddenly became bold. "Master, are you a man? You don't even drink a glass! Even I, the great beauty, have had some. Why won't you drink?"

"An Tian Tian, don't get drunk and act crazy!" Fang Tianfeng, who always found An Tian Tian's arrogance both charming and annoying, couldn't help but want to suppress her, probably due to his inherent machismo.

An Tian Tian slammed her hand on the table, stood up, her face flushed, and said, "Master, are you looking down on me? Waiter, bring two bottles of white wine. I'll drink from the bottle with you! Whoever can't finish in one go isn't a man!"

"An Tian Tian, don't push me. If I get angry, you'll regret it!" Fang Tianfeng pretended to be angry.

An Tian Tian, with Shen Xin between them, was a bit angry, so she went around Shen Xin, stood behind Fang Tianfeng, and placed her hands on his shoulders.

"Master, what did you say? You dare to make the invincible beauty An Tian Tian regret? Say it again!"

Fang Tianfeng coldly huffed and said, "If I get drunk, will you pay the bill?"

The room fell silent.

An Tian Tian suddenly smiled sweetly, bent down, wrapped her arms around Fang Tianfeng's neck from behind, leaned in, and pressed her face against his, smiling sycophantically. "Master, don't be so stingy. I was wrong. I won't force you to drink. Don't be angry, okay? Okay?"

She then shook Fang Tianfeng's neck, their faces gently rubbing against each other.

The other women were amused by An Tian Tian's coquettish behavior.

"Do you know you were wrong?" Fang Tianfeng asked with a smile.

"I know! Forgive me, okay?" An Tian Tian continued to shake and coo.

"Knowing your mistake and correcting it is a virtue. I'll forgive you, but remember to be more honest next time!" Fang Tianfeng said solemnly.

"Yes, Master!" An Tian Tian hugged Fang Tianfeng tightly, their faces pressed together, then she giggled and returned to her seat.

An Tian Tian smiled and said, "Master, when I have my own place and don't live with you anymore, will you still treat me to dinner?"

"Sorry, the food fund is only for tenants!"

"Stingy! I'm a great beauty! Many men want to treat me to dinner but can't! If you hadn't said you have a girlfriend and are saving money to marry her, do you think I would feel safe eating with you, a big pervert? Hmph, you've seen everything about me and don't take responsibility. I see through you!"

The room fell silent again.
