Chapter 1601: The Fake Young Master Is Going to Be Pampered by the Real Young Master 31

Mu Bo Jian belatedly noticed the atmosphere was off, and seeing Jiang Shui's strained expression as he tried to hold back his anger, he quickly said, "I didn't think that much; I didn't deliberately pick the one without scallion."

But this kind of thing obviously wasn't the first time it happened; Jiang Shui tugged at his lips, "You two are still quite in sync."

Mu Bo Jian wanted to speak but held back, fearing Jiang Shui would get angry again, so he silently picked up vegetables for him, "Don't be angry."

Jiang Shui sighed, his chopsticks poking at the rice, unable to smile at all; Shengsheng used to say Jin Chen was dense, but he thought Mu Bo Jian was the most dense person in the world.

Jin Chen placed the peeled shrimp into Zhu Suisheng's bowl, took off his glove, pulled out two sheets of paper to wipe his hands, and drew Zhu Suisheng's attention back from rolling his eyes at Lv Yu, "Let's eat first."

"I'm not very hungry," Zhu Suisheng obediently took a few bites, then put down his chopsticks, "I feel nauseous."

Jin Chen glanced at the somewhat angry Lv Yu, withdrew his gaze and hummed, "I'll get you lemon water later."

Yu Xing raised his hand, "I want some too."

Yu Xing slowly raised his left hand, still lowering his head to eat the chicken leg.

Lv Yu: "……"

No matter how thick-skinned one is, one can realize this is mockery, starting from when we met during the day; it's simply too much.

He put down his chopsticks with red eyes, choking up as he accused Jiang Shui, "Do your friends have something against me? Why are you always targeting me!"

"What exactly did I do wrong?"

Zhu Suisheng put down his soup spoon first, the clear clink of the ceramic striking drawing everyone's attention instantly.

He smiled, lifting his eyelids to look at Lv Yu, "Why don't you watch your boundaries, always doing things that annoy people?"

"What did I do? It's just letting Mu Bo Jian help me pick vegetables; why are you so sensitive." Lv Yu was dissatisfied, then shyly glanced at Mu Bo Jian awkwardly, "I've grown up with Mu Bo Jian since childhood; if anything were to happen, it would have happened by now."

Mu Bo Jian exclaimed in shock, "What nonsense are you spouting? Who grew up with you?"

"You..." Jiang Shui was so angry he couldn't bear it, just about to curse him when Zhu Suisheng pressed down his hand.

Zhu Suisheng slowly took a sip of wine, his smile deepening, "Then why aren't you two together? Is it because you don't want to?"

"So we can only do things that aren't fit for the table." Zhu Suisheng tilted his head, a flash of contempt crossing his face.

Lv Yu was so angry he could barely keep his composure, raising a finger at Jin Chen, "You and he are the same, what right do you have to criticize me! You even sleep together! Isn't that disgusting?"

"……"

Yu Xing was so frightened he couldn't eat his chicken leg, he pulled Yu Xing's little bear ears over to comfort himself, cautiously looking at Zhu Suisheng.

Zhu Suisheng's smile vanished instantly, he licked his lips, put down his wine cup, then reached out to cover Jin Chen's ears, tilting his head as he said, "I want to teach him a lesson."

Jin Chen pulled his hand away, gently pinching it, "This doesn't count as crossing the line; it's okay to do."

"What are you going to do…" Lv Yu felt bewildered, also sensing something from others' reactions, tears welling up as he looked at Jin Chen, choking out pitifully, "Your brother is so fierce… won't you intervene at all?"

Jin Chen glanced aside, "Tear incontinence is an illness."

Lv Yu stood up angrily, "You still say you're not targeting… ah!"

He watched helplessly as the red wine bottle exploded before him, the liquid staining the table red, shards of red glass flowing across the floor.

Lv Yu was stunned into silence, his mouth open for a long time without regaining his senses, his clothes all over stained red by the splashed wine.

Zhu Suisheng smiled at him from across the table, his beautiful eyes growing brighter yet devoid of emotion, "What a pity, I didn't hit you."

But at such close range, how could Zhu Suisheng miss? He simply didn't want this rare trip to end badly.

Zhu Suisheng thought, his temper really was getting better and better, deserving a reward from Jin Chen.

"You… you…" Lv Yu, frightened, had just regained his ability to speak, trembling as he looked at Mu Bo Jian, "Mu Bo Jian, I'm so scared…"

"Alright, I'll take you to change clothes." Jiang Wen, who had been silently observing without speaking, interrupted him, pulling Lv Yu to his feet; though he wasn't using force, it was impossible to refuse, and since Lv Yu hadn't yet recovered from his fear, he was easily led away.

Mu Bo Jian never imagined that picking vegetables could cause so much trouble, but from their conversation he also realized something, including things he had never noticed before.

He slowly took Jiang Shui's hand, the words he had previously held back finally spoken, "Shui Shui, shall we go out and chat?"

Jiang Shui and Zhu Suisheng exchanged a glance, then looked at Mu Bo Jian, nodded, and the two left the private room again.

Jin Chen rang the private room bell, had the waiter replace the tablecloth and serve the dishes, then took two sheets of paper to give Zhu Suisheng to wipe his hands.

"Are you going to praise me?" Zhu Suisheng let him wipe his hands, his fingers soft, his cooing voice also soft, "I didn't let him get hurt."

"Very good." Jin Chen said, his fingertip brushing Zhu Suisheng's raised eyes, "Worthy of a reward."

Zhu Suisheng felt a grain of sugar in his palm, emboldened by favor to the extreme, he raised his arms for a hug.

As he lunged into the embrace, Zhu Suisheng affectionately rubbed his shoulder, "I'm not fierce at all, right?"

"Right." Jin Chen agreed, wrapping his arms around his waist.

Yu Xing: "……" How dare you say that!

Yu Xing clung to fruit, gnawing on it, then suddenly silently raised his hand to cover his eyes, murmuring in his heart.

Do not look at impropriety, do not look at impropriety.

After the dishes were replaced, the four who had briefly left the private room returned one after another; Jiang Shui's cheeks and eyes were also red, facing Zhu Suisheng with a teasing glance and some shyness, but he no longer showed any trace of anger.

On the other hand, Lv Yu had become much quieter, unsure whether he'd been frightened by Zhu Suisheng's actions or had said something to Jiang Wen.

Jiang Wen took a new bottle of red wine from the waiter, "Let me do it."

He stood up to pour wine for everyone, finally pouring for Jin Chen beside him, their shoulders drawing closer.

Jin Chen's expression shifted slightly, he inexplicably looked at Jiang Wen, "What perfume did you spray?"

Zhu Suisheng lifted his eyelids to glance over, his brows slightly furrowed.

"Natural sandalwood fragrance," Jiang Wen seemed surprised, his ears turning red as well, he laughed openly, "Do you want to link up?"

Jin Chen: "……"

I want to fight you right now.

Jin Chen's fingertips twitched, he suppressed the urge, "No need."

"Okay." Jiang Wen didn't say much more, just a sense of just-right loss in his eyes that Jin Chen caught.

Jin Chen felt puzzled, and also inexplicably strange.
