    Chapter 70: Why is Your Face So Red?

    Amidst the laughter and chatter, the kitchen had already finished preparing the dishes. Shi Qingyan set the table and hurried to the kitchen to bring out the food.

    As soon as the kitchen door opened, the aroma rushed out, making the guests in the living room instantly hungry.

    “Old Shi, your cooking skills are impressive, it smells amazing.”

    “You can tell just from the smell that the food is great.”

    “Still has to be Old Shi.”

    With the food laid out, Qin Haizhao poured the wine, “How can we do without wine? Come, let’s toast to a pleasant collaboration with Mr. Xiao.”

    “Cheers.”

    Shi Qingyan and Ji Yang quietly poured themselves a glass each, joining in the toast.

    Shi Mubai had noticed their little actions long ago, but since there were many people today, a little drinking was fine. Boys will be boys.

    It’s impossible to never touch a drop of alcohol in this lifetime, just have a moderate amount.

    “Come, try Old Shi and his wife’s cooking.”

    “This taste is incredible, can I pay you for the meals and come eat here?”

    “Son, where’s the dish you made? Let me try it.”

    Everyone praised the Shi family’s cooking, and even Xiao Changming couldn’t help but have a few extra bites.

    Qin Tingshen listed the dishes he had made, and Qin Haizhao and Lan Xia each tasted a bite.

    Hmm? How is it a little delicious?

    “Son, I didn’t expect you to have a talent for cooking?”

    Qin Tingshen smiled triumphantly, “Did you think I was like you? Not even able to make a sandwich.” Like a pile of something or other.

    Still considering his dad’s feelings, he didn’t say the last part.

    “That’s because I haven’t learned it. If I studied for a few days, I could definitely make it better than you.”

    Qin Tingshen silently rolled his eyes, his dad’s cooking skills, hehe.

    The others lowered their heads, suppressing their laughter. Was Old Qin this funny?

    Ji Yang stared at the plate of shrimp, wanting to eat but not wanting to peel them. After hesitating for a long time, just as he was about to do it himself, he saw an extra shrimp meat in his bowl.

    Looking up, Xiao Changming was holding a shrimp.

    His large, well-jointed hand was pleasing to watch as he peeled the shrimp.

    The shell was peeled off quickly and placed in Ji Yang’s bowl.

    No one would have guessed that this was Xiao Changming’s first time peeling shrimp.

    He had noticed that Ji Yang wanted to eat the shrimp but was hesitant. Looking at the others, all the ones with wives were peeling shrimp for their wives.

    Xiao Changming observed for a while and knew what to do.

    Looking at the shrimp meat in his bowl, Ji Yang didn’t stand on ceremony, “Thank you.”

    It’s so great to eat without peeling.

    Shi Qingfeng looked at the shrimp meat in his hand, realizing that Ji Yang and his brother both had someone peeling for them, except for Mu Yinian.

    Mu Yinian saw Shi Qingfeng putting the shrimp meat in his bowl, and a smile appeared on his cold face.

    “Thank you, Shi Ge.”

    Mu Yinian always called him Shi Zong, which felt too distant, so he directly called him Shi Ge, and Shi Qingfeng directly called him by his name.

    “You’re welcome, eat.”

    Mu Yinian happily ate the shrimp meat, fireworks going off in his heart.

    Shi Ge peeled shrimp for him to eat, Shi Ge is so nice.

    Hmm… I just don’t know if Shi Ge he…

    The food was so good that they forgot about drinking. After they had eaten almost enough, they remembered that they had only focused on eating and hadn’t drunk any wine.

    After the younger ones finished eating, they went straight to playing games.

    Xiao Changming was pulled by the others to drink, drinking while watching Ji Yang playing games in front of the TV.

    This is the real appearance of the little sheep.

    He has to find a way to bring him home and devour him.

    Ji Yang had no idea that he was being targeted and was foolishly laughing.

    “Hahaha, I won, Mu Yinian, I’m still the best, right?”

    Ji Yang looked at Mu Yinian smugly. Mu Yinian didn’t believe it and pulled Ji Yang for another round.

    Shi Qingfeng got up to go to the bathroom. He was urinating when the bathroom door was opened.

    Mu Yinian saw Shi Qingfeng urinating as soon as he opened the door.

    His fair and delicate face instantly turned red. “S-sorry, I, I…”

    “Bang!”

    Shi Qingfeng was okay, he didn’t have as big a reaction as Mu Yinian.

    After flushing the toilet and washing his hands, he continued to return to his seat.

    Mu Yinian sat on the sofa, at a loss, his flushed face making the two of them curious.

    “Mu Yinian, why is your face so red?”

    “Like a tomato.”

    The scene from just now popped into Mu Yinian’s mind, making him even redder.

    Ji Yang and Shi Qingyan exchanged a look, and smiled mischievously as they sat on either side of him.

    “Tell us, what just happened?”

    Shi Qingyan looked at his brother coming out of the bathroom, and a bold guess floated in his mind: “You didn’t happen to run into my brother in the bathroom, did you?”

    Mu Yinian only felt that his cheeks were about to burn, stuttering, “N-no, it’s not, I, I am, it’s from drinking, yes, it’s from drinking.”

    The more he acted like this, the more suspicious it was.

    “We’re all men, what are you shy about? Could it be…”

    Shi Qingyan squinted at Mu Yinian, with an “I know everything” look that made Mu Yinian’s heart race.

    Xiao Yan is looking at him like that, could it be that he knows everything?

    This, what should he do?

    He hopes he didn’t see it, didn’t see it, didn’t see it.

    “Do you like my brother?”

    Great, he saw it.

    “I, I don’t…”

    How could there be no situation with this nervous look?

    Shi Qingyan and Ji Yang exchanged glances: He really likes my brother.

    Ji Yang: Looks like there’s no escaping it.

    “I can’t believe it, you actually have such thoughts about my brother, Mu Yinian, oh, no, Sister-in-law, tell us, when did you start liking my brother?”

    The two put their arms around Mu Yinian’s shoulders, pressuring the Mu Yinian, whose face was as red as blood.

    “I, you, you don’t, don’t object?”

    Mu Yinian had thought of many possibilities, but never expected that the two of them would accept it so quickly.

    “The way you put it, we have to benefit our own people, right? It’s even better to have a double-family relationship.”

    “That’s right, we wouldn’t necessarily agree if it was someone else, hurry up and confess.”

    Mu Yinian saw that they weren’t repulsed, and finally relaxed, whispering, “It’s, it’s just we’ve interacted a few times, just, just…”

    “Oho, you kid have potential.”

    “Sister-in-law, does my brother know?”

    Mu Yinian’s heart trembled when he heard him call him “Sister-in-law,” “Y-you don’t call me that, your brother, he doesn’t know yet.”

    Shi Qingyan patted his chest: “Don’t worry, I’ll create opportunities for you, guaranteed to work.”

    Mu Yinian bit his lip, glanced at Shi Qingfeng, who was drinking, and suppressed the shyness in his heart: “R-really?”

    At this moment, Mu Yinian had lost his coldness, and his shy appearance was very touching.

    Shi Qingfeng seemed to sense something and turned his head to look at Mu Yinian.

    The two met eyes, and Mu Yinian retracted his gaze as if he had been burned.

    Shi Qingfeng frowned slightly, why is Yinian’s face so red?

    Is the alcohol hitting him?

    “Don’t worry, how could my brother benefit an outsider? We know each other well, we’ll definitely choose you, just wait, and we’ll guarantee that you two will make it.”

    Xiao Changming looked at the three people huddled together on the other side, feeling that the other two were a bit of an eyesore.

    What are they doing with their arms around each other?

    Don’t they know that men and men shouldn’t touch each other casually?

    Qin Tingshen followed Xiao Changming’s gaze and gritted his teeth.

    They’re all people with boyfriends, don’t they know how to keep a little distance?

    Even if they’re friends and don’t have any other thoughts, that’s still not okay.

    It should be said that Qin Tingshen and Xiao Changming are quite similar sometimes.

    Jealous and possessive.
