Yan Tiefeng asked: "Qiuchi has been staying in a hotel recently?"

"He's only stayed for a few days. You get the moon first when you're near the water tower*. Can't you see? Isn't he able to get it?"

*You get the moon first when you're near the water tower (近水楼台先得月啊) = metaphor for getting benefits or convenience because of being close to the person/thing.

Yan Tiefeng smiled and said: "How is laoer*? I haven't seen him call me recently."

*Reminder: title for the second son.

Mrs. Yan told him about his transfer. Yan Tiefeng was shocked and said: "I didn't know anything about this."

Mrs. Yan: "You're not home all day, what can you know."

"Isn't it our wedding anniversary in two days? I want to free up a few days to spend time with you. I have been busy recently." Yan Tiefeng said: "I think Qiuchi's new company has done a great job, and the shareholders recognize him. In two years, I will start to hand over the burden to him. At that time, Yaoxuan will also graduate. If I can help him a little bit, I'll be able to take a break. At that time, I'll spend more time with you at home until you get bored."

"Oh please. Others can't be free, and you can't be idle either." Mrs. Yan said: "Don't worry about Yaoxuan's affairs. Qiuchi has always been in charge of him. Since he switched schools, he'll deduct his living expenses. After a while I'll fly over to visit him. There's nothing to worry about. Quichi is stricter with him."

Yan Tiefang's company was too large keeping his plate full. He couldn't even get through all his meetings in an entire day, and he sleeps on average four to five hours a day. Even his meals were all business related. It was quite troublesome for him to take time out for this dinner. Mrs. Yan first confirmed with him the time, the called Yan Qiuchi and Shen Jintai to confirm their availability. It was truly hard to set up a dinner for three people who were so busy.

Fortunately, Shen Jintai's current project was with Sunshine Media, which give Yan Qiuchi a lot of say in his schedule. Shen Jintai's shooting itinerary was relatively easy to change and it was finally it was determined for Friday night.

The next morning, only Xiao Tang and the others came, as Li Meilan had other plans. Wang Nan found that Shen Jintai's lips were swollen again, just not as swollen as last time. Shen Jintai felt embarrassed. He didn't understand why Yan Qiuchi loves kissing so much. It was as if he couldn't get enough of it, so he had kissed him incessantly until he fell asleep.

"Cut!" Qiu Hong stood up: "Jintai, come here."

Shen Jintai walked over, thinking that there was something wrong with the shot. When he came over, Qiu Hong gently pulled on his collar, glance at it, then gave him a sly smile.

Shen Jintai turned instantly red and hurriedly pulled up his collar.

"Give him a new look." Qiu Hong didn't reveal anything: "Change it to a turtleneck sweater."

The people behind the monitor all knew, but were afraid of embarrassing Shen Jintai, so they all turned a blind eye. When the closeup shot was done just now, the camera caught a hickey that was on Shen Jintai's neck. From afar, it would be fine, but when it was zoom in close, anyone could recognize what it was from a glance.

Shen Jintai knew he was busted. He texted Yan Qiuchi scolding him. It wasn't Yan Qiuchi's fault though as he didn't do it on purpose. As a novice, he just didn't know how to kiss. He had always respected Shen Jintai's career as an actor and knew that he was always diligent in his privacy. He as well didn't want others to see what he and Shen Jintai did in private.
