Chapter 17: Reaction After Drinking Bull Penis Soup

Chen Jingzhi leaned his head forward and looked at Qiao Yanyan, greeting her: “Yanyan, haven’t seen you in a few days. Are you doing well?”

Qiao Yanyan nodded and smiled at him.

Then she waved at Fu Shiyuan. “Hello, Yanyan’s husband!”

Fu Shiyuan politely replied: “Hello.”

Then he leaned back into his seat and whispered in Su An’an’s ear: “He’s a bit silly, but he seems like a decent guy!”

“Chen Jingzhi! You’re not allowed to say that about my sister’s husband!”

“Okay, okay, I promise I won’t say it again. That was the last time!”

Fu Shiyuan looked very happy sitting in his seat. He was going on a trip with his wife!

The plane slowly took off, getting farther and farther from the ground. Fu Shiyuan looked out the window in awe. “Wow! So beautiful!”

Qiao Yanyan smiled and said: “There’ll be something even more beautiful soon. When the plane enters the clouds, that’s really stunning.”

“Really, Wife?”

“Mhm. Shiyuan, have you never been on a plane before?”

“I think I have… but I can’t really remember!”

When the plane entered the clouds, Fu Shiyuan kept exclaiming how beautiful it was, taking lots of photos.

After taking photos, he sat in his seat holding his wife’s hand. Feeling thirsty, he leaned toward Qiao Yanyan and said: “Wife, I want some water.”

Qiao Yanyan opened her eyes and nodded. “Okay, I’ll ask the flight attendant to bring you a glass of water.”

She had the flight attendant bring over a cup of hot water, and Fu Shiyuan gulped it down quickly. Then he wanted more, so the attendant brought another cup.

“Wife, I feel so hot!” Sweat began to bead on Fu Shiyuan’s forehead.

Qiao Yanyan took a tissue and helped wipe his sweat, saying: “The air conditioner is set to 26 degrees. I even feel a bit cold. You’re only wearing one layer of clothes—why are you feeling hot?”

“I don’t know. My body just feels weird, like… really hot.”

“Want some iced water?”

“Mhm!”

So Qiao Yanyan had the flight attendant bring a glass of iced water.

He felt much better after drinking it, but before long, Fu Shiyuan said he felt hot again.

Su An’an, watching the flight attendant come and go with water for her brother-in-law, asked: “Sister, what did Brother-in-law eat this morning to make him so thirsty?”

Qiao Yanyan suddenly recalled the bull penis soup her mother-in-law had prepared for Fu Shiyuan that morning and answered truthfully: “He had bull penis soup this morning. My mother-in-law made it for him and said Shiyuan needed to build up his strength.”

Chen Jingzhi burst out laughing, then quickly checked if they were disturbing anyone nearby. Thankfully, they weren’t.

He leaned toward Qiao Yanyan and said: “Yanyan, do you know what bull penis soup is for?”

“How would I know?” Qiao Yanyan clearly had no idea.

Su An’an beside her also shook her head.

Chen Jingzhi said: “It’s to strengthen a man’s body—used by people with weak kidneys to replenish their health. Yanyan, looks like you and your husband must be very… passionate at night. Your mother-in-law gave him bull penis soup? What, afraid he’d tire himself out?”

Then Chen Jingzhi covered his mouth and chuckled.

Su An’an’s face turned bright red!

Qiao Yanyan finally understood—so it was her mother-in-law’s doing!

Seeing Fu Shiyuan looking so uncomfortable, she didn’t know what to do.

He was sweating again, so she kept wiping him, but now his back was sweating too. His clothes were slowly getting soaked…

She figured once the plane landed, they had to find a place to stay immediately and give him a cold shower.

Qiao Yanyan asked Su An’an: “An’an, did you guys book a hotel?”

Su An’an nodded. “We did. Let’s head straight to the hotel after we land. Or should we go see a doctor? Brother-in-law looks really overheated.”

Chen Jingzhi waved his hand. “No need for a doctor. He just needs to sleep with Yanyan… you know\… that. He’s just too energetic from over-supplementing.”

Qiao Yanyan felt extremely uncomfortable. Sleep with Fu Shiyuan? Of course not!

She needed to get off the plane quickly and get him a cold shower at the hotel.

Mother-in-law\… Not only did she teach Shiyuan to sleep with her, but also made him drink bull penis soup in the morning. Had she even considered whether Shiyuan… was capable of sleeping with her?

“Wife, I feel hot.” Fu Shiyuan looked extremely uncomfortable.

“Wait until the plane lands, we’ll go to the hotel and give you a cold shower. Then you won’t feel so bad, okay?”

“Oh.” Fu Shiyuan suddenly wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his head on her chest.

Chen Jingzhi secretly pointed at the two of them and whispered into Su An’an’s ear: “An’an, look at how close your sister and Brother-in-law are.”

“Mhm. Jingzhi, don’t get so close to me.” Su An’an felt a little uneasy.

Chen Jingzhi’s expression changed immediately. “Haven’t we always sat this close? Why are you suddenly saying this?”

“Is that so? I never really noticed. But anyway, Jingzhi, we’ve grown up now—we should keep some distance.”

“Keep distance? Su An’an, what are we? We grew up together, and you want to keep distance from me?” Chen Jingzhi sounded angry as he lightly tapped Su An’an on the head.

“Ouch! That hurts.”

“I didn’t even use any force. What are you yelping for?”

Chen Jingzhi suddenly thought of that tall man at the airport. He narrowed his eyes and asked: “I haven’t asked you yet—Yanyan’s husband’s little brother, why is he so familiar with you?”

At the mention of Fu Shixu, Su An’an felt a strange flutter in her heart.

“Huh? What? I’m not really close with him.”

“Not close? Then why do you sound so guilty? Don’t tell me, you two…”

Su An’an quickly waved her hands. “No, no! There’s nothing going on between us.”

“I didn’t even say anything yet!” But deep down, Chen Jingzhi had figured it out—An’an was probably falling for him.

“I also… didn’t say anything.”

“Is he into you?” Chen Jingzhi asked calmly.

“What? I don’t know.” Su An’an’s ears slowly turned red.

Damn it, An’an was really falling for him!

He had stayed by her side for so many years, but to her, he was always just a friend—just a close, familiar friend.

His heart ached inexplicably. An’an… might really like someone else now.

Over the years, countless people had confessed to An’an, but she was never swayed. Whenever someone persistent came along, she’d ask him to pretend to be her boyfriend to get rid of them.

Chen Jingzhi cautiously asked: “An’an, has he caused you any trouble? Do you want me to step in and pretend to be your boyfriend again?”

Su An’an shook her head. “No need, Jingzhi. You don’t have to pretend anymore. I think it’s unfair to you. If a girl likes you in the future, it might hurt your reputation.”

“I don’t care!” Chen Jingzhi shouted in a low voice.

Su An’an was startled. She looked at him and asked: “Jingzhi, what’s wrong with you?”

Chen Jingzhi looked out the window and muttered: “I’m fine.” Then he ignored her.

The girl he had guarded for so many years was finally falling for someone else.

His heart really hurt. It felt like shit.

Can’t you see it? I like you!

Twenty minutes later, the plane landed.

The group hailed a cab and headed to the hotel.

In the car, Fu Shiyuan lay in Qiao Yanyan’s arms, repeating over and over again that he felt terrible.

Qiao Yanyan could only comfort him. “It’s okay, it’s okay. We’re almost at the hotel.”

In truth, he wasn’t feeling that terrible. He just wanted to stay in his wife’s arms a little longer.

With his ear pressed against her chest, he could hear her heartbeat, and her caring words made him feel incredibly content.

When they arrived at the hotel, they picked up their room keys and headed upstairs in the elevator. Inside, Chen Jingzhi grinned at Qiao Yanyan and said: “Yanyan, remember to be more affectionate with your husband in the room. He really is feeling bad right now. You’re a woman—you don’t understand how uncomfortable it is for a man.”

Qiao Yanyan just wanted to roll her eyes and say one thing to him: Get lost!

⋆⁺₊⋆ ━━━━⊱༒︎ • ༒︎⊰━━━━ ⋆⁺₊⋆

Once in the room, Qiao Yanyan locked the door and led Fu Shiyuan into the bedroom, helping him sit on the bed. Then she stood up to head into the bathroom to prepare a bath—but Fu Shiyuan suddenly pulled her into a tight hug.

“Wife, where are you going?”

“I’m going to run the bath for you. Let go of me.”

“I want to go with you.” Fu Shiyuan held her tightly and wouldn’t let go.

Qiao Yanyan really didn’t know what to do with him. “Fine, fine. Let’s go together.”

The two entered the bathroom together. While Qiao Yanyan was running the water, Fu Shiyuan suddenly kissed her on the cheek.

“Wife, I want a kiss… I want more kisses…”
