Jisoo had never asked what the relationship between Chaeyoung and Jaehyun was. To be exact, he made nothing of him.
He watched Chaeyoung came out of the bedroom in pink homewear. Her cheeks were ruddy in color, and those plump, red lips of hers were dazzling and alluring.
Jisoo's Adam's apple bobbed a little.
He had not kissed her lips for a long time. In fact, that taste was not something he could abstain from.
"Jennie drank too much and is now asleep."
Chaeyoung said plainly and looked away, not wanting to meet his gaze.
"How about you ask Lisa to let her sleepover tonight. Tomorrow I'll bring her back!"
Jisoo thought about it for a moment. Without a wife by his side for one night, it should not be unbearable to the point of death for Lisa, would it?
After all, he had never...
"It's rather cozy here." Looking around, Jisoo struck up a conversation.
This was the first time he could come inside, so he was piqued.
Chaeyoung knew that although Shao Yibai usually looked unruly and unrestrained, he was extremely well-mannered. Every time he dropped by, even though Aunty Zhang treated him coldly, he would still respond politely and had never once barged inside.
"This is my friend's place. When I earn enough, I'll get a small apartment..."
"Jaehyun's?" It suddenly occurred to Jisoo that Chaeyoung might have received much help from Jaehyun upon her arrival at Luo Hai. After all, he had not only provided her with lodging but also a nanny. Why did it look like he was keeping a mistress in a golden house 1?
If that was the case, then this golden house was somewhat shabby-looking. Jisoo felt a tinge of jealousy.
That Jaehyun seemed like a gentleman. He was rather handsome, young and talented. Chaeyoung could not be falling for this kind of man, could she?
Hearing Jisoo mentioning Jaehyun and upon noticing his questioning gaze, she felt a little uncomfortable.
Since the last time they had a substantive relationship at the Spring Hotel, she had told him that she did not want to be associated with him and wanted to cut ties with him.
She had been evading him, so this was one of the few long talks they were having.
"Jaehyun's a friend of mine."
"What kind of friend?" Jisoo blurted out but instantly felt ridiculous of himself.
Why should he even consider that Jaehyun? Would he, Kim Jisoo, be jealous of that kind of person? What a joke!
"Ordinary friends!" Chaeyoung was getting impatient. She looked at her watch. It was already 10 o'clock. If this man would not leave, she could not go to bed.
Her gaze fell on the door, and Chaeyoung gave the order for him to leave. "If there's nothing else, I'd like to rest now."
"Kiss me!"
Jisoo put up a brazen manner, his eyes swirling with emotions. "I won't leave until you've kissed me!"
"You..." Chaeyoung bit her lips. "How shameless you are!"
"And uncouth too!"
Jisoo's tone was full of ridicule, and his tall and strong body pressed over.
Chaeyoung retreated in fear. Jennie was sleeping in the bedroom behind her.
In the other bedroom, Aunty Zhang and An An were also sleeping soundly. There was no way she could fight him.
Seeing Jisoo's unrelenting gaze, Chaeyoung surrendered.
"Just a brief one!"
"Alright!"
Standing on tiptoes, Chaeyoung lightly pecked his lips. Although it was only for a short moment, she could already feel them burning.
"Miss Park calls this a kiss?" Jisoo was somewhat irritated.
"What do you want then?" Chaeyoung pushed him away to make him leave.
"No way. That can only count as the dessert before dinner!" Jisoo spoke and placed his arm around Chaeyoung's waist. "Let me teach you!"
"Mhmm..." Before Chaeyoung could refuse, her lips were firmly shackled by him, and the tip of his tongue barged in without any warning.
Her little hands clutched the fabric at his waist tightly, and her whole body shuddered non-stop. She bore his unreasonable encroachment, feeling his warmth and that domineering aura...
The moment she felt the changes in his body, Chaeyoung was frightened and hurriedly pushed him away.
Jisoo grabbed her trembling little hands. He placed them on it and whispered into her ears, "It wants you!!"
"Jisoo!" Chaeyoung called out harshly with a plea. "You can't do this..."
Jisoo was already aroused, but he was trying hard to control himself. Even though he had been mingling in the social circle for two years, there was never once a woman who could cause him to be this impulsive nor interest him. However, in front of Chaeyoung, he would always lose control!
Perhaps, she was his calamity!
"Mom? What are you all doing?"
A child's voice broke the ambiguous atmosphere between the two people.
Jisoo turned around in shock. His gaze fell on the little kid by the bedroom door. Jisoo looked incredulously at his white and tender face and asked coldly, "Who are you? What did you just call her?"
"Who are you? Why are you in my house?" An An rubbed his eyes that were not fully opened yet and asked with his childlike voice, "Mom, is he a bad person?"
Chaeyoung was stunned and stood rooted on the spot. She hastily pushed against Jisoo's chest and walked over to hug An An, gently whispering to him, "This uncle is a friend of mine. Why are you up? Do you want to go pee?"
An An nodded. His shiny black eyes were exceptionally beautiful.
In actual fact, he was thinking about his mother in his heart, so he could not sleep soundly. When he got up in the middle of the night and heard some movements on the outside, he came out to check it out.
Jisoo watched Chaeyoung bring the little kid to the bathroom. He was still bothered by the issue. "Who's this kid? When did Chaeyoung become a mother?"
'FML. Does she have another man?'
This kid seemed to be three or four years old. At that time, Chaeyoung had not left him.
Could this man be the reason she left without saying goodbye back then?
Jisoo scrambled his hair and was like a lion that was about to go into a rage. His bloodthirsty and vicious eyes filled with traces of sorrow.
He watched as Chaeyoung came out of the bathroom carrying the child in her arms. Her maternal tenderness could not be concealed at all.
"Darling, sleep with Grandma Zhang tonight. I'll sleep with you tomorrow, okay?"
Chaeyoung rubbed An An's head.
The little kid was very sensible. He nodded and shifted his eyes to the trapped beast under the orange light in the living room. He whispered to Chaeyoung, "Mom, be careful of bad guys! If you find yourself in danger, just shout loudly. Grandmother and I will come out to help you!"
When Jisoo heard that, he did not know whether to laugh or cry. This kid really took him as a bad person.
"Don't worry, this uncle's not a bad guy. He'll leave in a minute. Go to bed. You still have to go to kindergarten early tomorrow morning. Teacher Liu said that you'll be the ceremonial guard!"
"Yea, it's because I'm the most handsome!"
An An said with all seriousness.
Chaeyoung could not help but laugh. Jisoo listened at the side. 'F*ck. This kid's as narcissistic as I was when I was a child!'
The moment this thought surfaced, another thought suddenly came crashing into his mind, and he trembled in excitement!
Could this kid be his child?
Chaeyoung sent An An into the bedroom and turned around to see an excited Jisoo. She said plainly, "Don't overthink. An An has nothing to do with you. You better leave now!"
