Chapter 448: It's All a Misunderstanding, Let's Sleep Together

"This is my home!"

Liu Xin'ai did not wait for Liu Tengnian to reply, and immediately said this loudly.

"Xin'ai!"

Liu Tengnian immediately scolded Liu Xin'ai, looking at her with some disapproval, and even some surprise.

From childhood to adulthood, Liu Xin'ai had always been the most obedient and sensible one.

Except for when they were discussing the marriage, this was the first time he had seen her lose her temper at anyone.

Liu Xin'ai also suddenly realized something; her gaze flickered for a moment, and she hurriedly withdrew her eyes.

At this moment, Qin Yiyan spoke up at the right time: "Uncle, don't blame Xin'ai. I made her unhappy myself, so it is only right for her to be a little fierce with me."

"Sigh..."

Liu Tengnian sighed: "Since you're here, come to the study. Both of you come."

As he said this, he turned and walked upstairs.

Qin Yiyan followed immediately.

Liu Xin'ai helplessly glared at his back, and had no choice but to follow as well.

The two of them arrived at the study and sat down on the sofa.

Qin Yiyan did not speak, but waited for Liu Tengnian to take the initiative to ask.

The study was quiet for a long while—

Liu Tengnian indeed asked first: "Yiyan, did you go to a bar to drink tonight?"

"Yes."

Qin Yiyan answered obediently, a dark glint flashing in the depths of his eyes.

It seems it really is just as I guessed...

He thought to himself, and then, without waiting for Liu Tengnian to continue asking, he took the initiative to explain: "I did go to the bar to have a few drinks tonight because of a social engagement. If Xin'ai doesn't like it, I won't go in the future."

Liu Tengnian had not expected his attitude to be so good, and was stunned for a moment; the words he was about to say were stuck in his throat.

Liu Xin'ai also suddenly clenched her fists, and couldn't help but feel a bit angry again.

It's starting again!

This guy is acting again!

"Cough..."

She coughed lightly and pointed it out directly: "Is it really as simple as just drinking? I took photos of you with another woman feeding you drinks..."

Liu Tengnian nodded without speaking.

Qin Yiyan, however, raised an eyebrow.

So she took photos... It seems she is even smarter than I thought.

It's just a pity...

Qin Yiyan smiled and explained unhurriedly: "Then you have really wronged me. I didn't touch any woman tonight. I can swear to heaven..."

As Qin Yiyan spoke, his expression suddenly changed to one of doting, and he said helplessly: "Xin'ai, I know you care a lot about this matter, but I really didn't drink any alcohol fed to me by anyone. The woman you saw was pushed away by me afterwards. If you don't believe me, you can go directly to check the bar's surveillance..."

Qin Yiyan truly had not touched any woman, and his expression did not have a hint of falsehood.

"But..."

Liu Xin'ai widened her eyes in disbelief; the plan she had originally thought out was suddenly all disrupted.

Liu Tengnian did not speak, seemingly lost in thought.

Qin Yiyan continued: "Uncle, today's matter was indeed my fault, but I don't have enough time to love Xin'ai, so how could I do anything to let her down?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Tengnian shook his head, sighed, and said: "Forget it, there's no need to make such a big fuss. Since it's a misunderstanding, it's fine once it's cleared up."

"It really was just a misunderstanding." Qin Yiyan smiled and replied: "I originally wanted to come tomorrow, but I was worried that Xin'ai would be angry all night, and I really couldn't rest easy, so I came to disturb you so late. Sorry, Uncle."

"It's fine, as long as you two are fine..."

Liu Tengnian waved his hand.

"Dad..." Liu Xin'ai still wanted to say something, but Liu Tengnian interrupted her directly: "Alright, the matter is cleared up. Go back to your room to rest. I have some things to discuss with Yiyan."

Liu Xin'ai felt a lump in her chest; knowing that the matter was a foregone conclusion and that anything she said would be useless, she had no choice but to turn and leave helplessly.

The room door closed, and Liu Tengnian's expression changed instantly.

"Yiyan."

He looked at Qin Yiyan with a serious expression and said slowly: "Regarding tonight's matter, Uncle believes you, but you must also know that Xin'ai is someone I raised in the palm of my hand. You cannot let her down in the slightest, and even more so, you cannot let her be sad or hurt..."

"Don't worry, Uncle." Qin Yiyan's expression became much more serious.

"My feelings for Xin'ai are something both you and my parents have seen. Spending time with her during this period has also made me regret why I didn't get to know her sooner. As for today's matter... naturally, I won't blame her. If it weren't because she cares about me, how could she be so angry?"

Qin Yiyan said this with a very earnest face.

If Liu Xin'ai were present, she would probably be angered quite a bit again.

Liu Tengnian, however, nodded with great satisfaction: "Mm, as long as you understand. Xin'ai has had a soft temperament since she was a child. If you two have any small frictions, you should coax her more and give in to her, and it will be fine..."

"Alright, you can rest assured."

Qin Yiyan agreed immediately, and then heard Liu Tengnian say again: "Xin'ai is probably still angry. Go and coax her again. Tonight... just stay here. Tomorrow, the two of you can go back together."

"Alright." Qin Yiyan agreed to everything, sent Liu Tengnian back to his room, and only then asked the servants to find Liu Xin'ai's room.

"Knock, knock, knock—"

The sound of knocking on the door rang out.

"What is it?"

Liu Xin'ai hadn't fallen asleep yet and thought it was a servant looking for her, so she asked subconsciously.

Then she heard that voice, which made one angry just by hearing it, say: "It's me."

Liu Xin'ai felt somewhat displeased at once.

"You can leave now, I'm going to sleep."

She replied with one sentence and deliberately turned off the light.

But the next second, she heard Qin Yiyan raise his voice slightly and say, "I have something to tell you. If you don't open the door, I'll just say it standing right here. Uncle Liu should have only just fallen asleep..."

*Swish! *

The bedroom door was pulled open.

Liu Xin'ai glared at Qin Yiyan expressionlessly, her gaze wishing she could throw him straight out of the window.

Qin Yiyan couldn't help but find it a little amusing.

Uncle Liu said she had a soft temperament just now?

But even the softest and smallest animal will have its own little claws...

"If you have something to say, say it quickly."

Liu Xin'ai spoke with feigned calmness, not wanting her emotions to fluctuate because of him again.

Qin Yiyan, however, seized the opportunity, made a move to squeeze directly in through the doorway, and nimbly locked the bedroom door behind him!

"You!"

Liu Xin'ai widened her eyes in disbelief, reacted for two seconds, and then said helplessly, "This is the Liu Family, please conduct yourself with dignity!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yiyan immediately raised an eyebrow noncommittally: "Uncle said just now to let me come over and coax you a bit, so here I am, aren't I? Besides, he also told me to stay the night, but he didn't say which room I should stay in..."

"Don't even think about staying here."

Liu Xin'ai understood what Qin Yiyan wanted to do in an instant and looked at him with twelve points of wariness.

Immediately after her words fell, she saw that someone was already sitting on the edge of her bed!

"I originally didn't intend to stay here, but since you put it that way, I suddenly feel... this room isn't bad either. I think... Uncle probably wouldn't have any objections..."
