Chapter 119: Want to Kiss Your Husband?

Shen Shiyan first went to the sales office of Yunjing Mansion and added several hundred thousand to buy the upstairs unit that was still on sale.

The salesperson had never seen anyone pay so swiftly; their face was almost stiff from smiling. After signing the contract and handing over the password and keys, they respectfully escorted him out.

After the meeting at Chonghe, Shen Shiyan grabbed his documents and planned to head to the supermarket to buy some vegetables and fish. Shen Ci had been clamoring for cod yesterday. As he walked downstairs, a figure stopped him—Fang Yuexun.

"Mr. Shen, long time no see." Fang Yuexun's expression was far from friendly. "I shouldn't still owe you twenty million."

"Master Fang." Shen Shiyan nodded politely, pulled out his phone to check the time, and said, "I don't have time to discuss whether you're short on money with you here."

Fang Yuexun frowned. "Then don't meddle in the matters between Shen Ci and me."

Hearing this, Shen Shiyan finally glanced at him with a hint of seriousness and said coldly, "I don't think there's anything between my lover and you."

Fang Yuexun froze for a moment, his expression strange.

"Lover?" Fang Yuexun asked incredulously. "Mr. Shen, are you joking with me?"

Shen Shiyan checked the time again.

"Sorry, I have things to do." Without any intent to waste more words, Shen Shiyan brushed past him.

Fang Yuexun clearly wanted to argue further. He was a gentleman with good manners, but after being blocked by Shen Ci on WeChat and social media accounts, he had lost most of his composure.

When Shen Shiyan got into the car, Fang Yuexun directly opened the passenger door.

But he didn’t get a chance to sit down.

Because the lumbar pillow and blanket on the passenger seat, along with the plushie ornament in front, all proved that this seat was taken—not for him.

"Sit in the back." Shen Shiyan didn't even look at Fang Yuexun as he got into the car.

Fang Yuexun didn’t fuss and settled into the back seat.

Not long after the car started, Fang Yuexun caught a faint scent of green apple in the car—unique to Shen Ci.

"Why is Shen Ci with you?" Fang Yuexun had already begun to believe Shen Shiyan was telling the truth.

"Why can’t Shen Ci be with me?" Shen Shiyan countered, driving a bit faster, making a sharp turn.

Fang Yuexun was momentarily stumped and turned his head to look out the window, feeling downcast.

He had assumed Shen Shiyan would drive straight home, allowing him to see Shen Ci. But Fang Yuexun hadn’t expected Shen Shiyan to park in the supermarket basement garage instead.

"I have no interest in driving you home." Shen Shiyan got out and shut the car door.

Fang Yuexun also got out, stubbornly intent on getting an answer—most importantly, about Shen Ci’s attitude. He still felt that Shen Shiyan had a hand in Shen Ci blocking him.

He followed Shen Shiyan into the supermarket, watching him meticulously pick out a bunch of garlic chives, then head to the seafood section for freshwater prawns and cod.

Shen Shiyan’s expression remained indifferent, with just a hint of tenderness occasionally showing as he selected items, completely ignoring Fang Yuexun trailing behind him.

"Even if he’s with you now, it doesn’t matter, right?" Fang Yuexun suddenly spoke as Shen Shiyan picked up some cilantro. "I’ll still continue to pursue him."

Shen Shiyan’s hand holding the cilantro paused slightly.

The supermarket wasn’t too crowded. Shen Shiyan looked directly at Fang Yuexun’s detestable face.

"Your pursuit only proves that my lover is a wonderful person." Shen Shiyan’s face was expressionless, but in his heart, he was still worrying about whether Shen Ci had woken up and if just a bit of egg custard would leave him hungry.

"In the past, I couldn’t guarantee it, but now, all my money, power, and influence can be given to him without reservation," Shen Shiyan continued. "Fang Yuexun, in all the years you’ve been chasing him, how many men have you slept with? Can you even remember?"

Fang Yuexun stiffened, quickly recovering. "You investigated me?"

Shen Shiyan nodded calmly. "Not really. It’s easy enough to find out."

"Fang Yuexun, the reason your infatuation with Shen Ci has lasted so many years is simply because you’ve never had him. Back at the banquet, it was just lust at first sight. The Shen Ci you’ve seen has always been at his most beautiful and radiant."

Shen Shiyan’s words hit the mark.

"How do you know I don’t truly love him?" Fang Yuexun’s defiance lacked conviction.

"Don’t use Shen Ci’s innocence as an excuse to fool him." Shen Shiyan gave a sarcastic smile, his words blunt and provocative. "Fang Yuexun, your love is cheap."

Fang Yuexun had never seen Shen Ci’s red-rimmed eyes, never seen his withered, yellow hair at eleven years old, nor the tear stains at the corners of his eyes after a nightmare.

But Shen Shiyan had seen all of that. He had raised Shen Ci.

In the past, Shen Shiyan had prepared himself for everything, including handing Shen Ci over to a stranger who would love him more.

But that stranger would never have been Fang Yuexun. He was the most likely to let Shen Ci’s sadness and tears multiply once the novelty faded.

But Shen Shiyan was different now. He had grown strong enough to let Shen Ci live carefree for a lifetime. Even if the fake marriage announcement couldn’t lure Shen Ci back, he wouldn’t give up easily.

And fortunately, Shen Ci loved him too. Shen Ci still loved him.

Shen Shiyan’s gaze shifted from Fang Yuexun’s face to a small pumpkin behind him.

He seemed to like this one too. Maybe steam it.

He reached out and picked one up, weighing it in his hand.

"I need to go home and cook for my lover." Shen Shiyan pushed his cart forward. "Do as you please."

After taking a couple of steps, Shen Shiyan turned back to look at Fang Yuexun, who was still frozen in place, his eyes icy.

"Pursue him however you want, but if you use any underhanded methods, the Fang family has no reason to remain in Bincheng."

Fang Yuexun felt a chill.

He was a fake gentleman. Shen Shiyan, on the other hand, was a true gentleman—never slacking in cooperation with any company, big or small, even offering favorable terms to small and micro enterprises. But his ruthlessness was undeniable; he had driven even his own uncle to ruin. Fang Yuexun believed Shen Shiyan would go to extremes for Shen Ci.

When Shen Shiyan arrived home, Shen Ci was still sleeping soundly, though his face had an unusual flush. Next to his pillow lay Shen Shiyan’s shirt.

He glanced down at the trash bin by the bed.

There were two or three crumpled tissues in it.

Shen Shiyan let out a silent laugh, went to the bathroom to shower, then returned to the bedroom. He lifted the blanket and lay down, pulling Shen Ci into his arms from behind

Shen Ci shook his head absentmindedly.

"Then I haven't been taking good care of you these past few days." Shen Shiyan laughed, gathering all of Shen Ci's hair together and tousling it.

Shen Ci's face suddenly flushed, and he snapped fully awake, realizing what Shen Shiyan was implying.

He lifted his head slightly to look at Shen Shiyan.

Those dark eyes, with a half-smile, stared fixedly at him without blinking, as if he had long known Shen Ci would look over.

"How did you know..." Shen Ci's voice faltered.

"Did you get tired from playing by yourself?" Shen Shiyan didn't answer but countered. He rubbed Shen Ci's tailbone, then lowered his head until their noses brushed, whispering, "Do you want to kiss your husband?"

Shen Ci's scalp tingled.

He had absolutely no power to resist Shen Shiyan. Shen Ci even felt that Shen Shiyan didn't seem like someone in his first relationship at all.

He willingly pressed his lips to Shen Shiyan's, and soon the tables turned as his breath was completely taken away.

Only when he was almost out of breath did Shen Shiyan let him go, holding him quietly for a moment.

"Fang Yuexun came looking for me today." Shen Shiyan twirled a strand of Shen Ci's hair around his finger.

Shen Ci asked lazily, "What did he say?"

Shen Shiyan had seemed completely indifferent in the supermarket, but in front of Shen Ci, he showed an intense possessiveness, exaggerating the details as he recounted it.

"His love is indeed cheap." Shen Ci was amused by his antics and laughed for a good while before asking, "And what about your love?"

Shen Shiyan kissed his eyelids.

His voice was low and very solemn.

"I've already given you all my love."
