“Hao, try Auntie’s cooking.”

“If you like it, come by more often…”
After a series of surprises, dinner finally began.
Xu Yanfen, the “prospective mother-in-law,” was smiling as she served dishes to Yang Hao.
“Hao, you have to drink more on a day like today!”
Feng Lina also stayed for dinner; she was quite a good drinker and was ready to have a good drink with her major client.
“Yes, we must drink well today!”
“If you drink too much, just sleep here, it’s not like we don’t have space.”
Guan Weimin also raised his glass; he was genuinely happy today.
Receiving a gift like the “Lion Painting” was only part of it; the main thing was that Yang Hao’s choice of gifts was very thoughtful and he was willing to spend money.
As a chief physician at a large hospital, he had encountered numerous wealthy people.
But being rich and being generous are two different things; some rich people even begrudge the money spent on their wives. Take a certain king of pop who flies business class himself, while his wife has to sit in the economy section when traveling. You can call it frugality, but in the end, it’s just stinginess!
Yang Hao was quite happy today too; having sent out a wave of gifts, he not only gained a lot of favor but also made eight million.
He felt he was getting close to turning his temporary girlfriend into an NPC…
Guan Mengmeng already had a favorable impression of him, plus his current maneuvering.
Which young girl could resist such charm?
So, today he could try to get himself drunk.
There’s a saying: if you’re not drunk, I’m not drunk, and no one gets to play cards!
However, such tactics can’t be misused. For instance, when there are many men around during a drinking session, one must protect oneself.
Otherwise, upon sobering up, you might just be serenaded with “Chrysanthemum Terrace” by Jay.
The world is perilous!
When men go out, they must also protect themselves!
But in a setting like today’s, there’s definitely no problem, and besides, Guan Weimin’s tolerance for alcohol was not as good as Yang Hao’s; he was the first to get drunk after a while.
And seeing this older comrade passed out, Yang Hao also slumped onto the table.
“This…”
With both men succumbing to drunkenness, Xu Yanfen was immediately perplexed. She looked at her daughter and then at her niece, “What should we do now?”
“Simple.”
A somewhat tipsy Feng Lina said, “Auntie, help Uncle back to the bedroom.”
“I’ll help Mengmeng take Hao to her bedroom. Looks like he can’t leave today.”
“Ah?”
Hearing this suggestion, Guan Mengmeng’s eyes widened instantly.
“We can’t just make Hao sleep on the sofa.”
“It’s fine, you can come back with me,” Feng Lina offered Guan Mengmeng another option.
“Nana is right.”
“We can’t let Hao sleep on the sofa,” Xu Yanfen thought her niece made sense, “Mengmeng, help him to your bedroom first.”
“Oh, okay.”
Guan Mengmeng was still a bit dazed; she hadn’t considered the possibility of Yang Hao staying over, and especially sleeping in her room.
Even though there wasn’t much of a secret in her room, no man other than her father had ever entered it.
“Hao, I’m going to help you to Mengmeng’s room now, so cooperate a little.”
An all-knowing Feng Lina patted Yang Hao’s shoulder, and he turned out to be quite cooperative, easily making it to Guan Mengmeng’s room with the help of the two girls.
“Mengmeng, I’ve heard it’s dangerous for drunk people to sleep as they might suffocate, so, it’s better if you stay and look after him…”
After they got him onto the bed, Feng Lina added.
“Oh, I understand…”
Actually, Guan Mengmeng didn’t plan on leaving; after all, it didn’t seem right to leave him alone in her home.
But she was now rather conflicted. If Yang Hao slept on her bed, where was she supposed to sleep?
Were they supposed to sleep together?
“Mengmeng, take care of Hao, I’m going now.”
Feng Lina said this, but gave Guan Mengmeng a hand gesture, signaling her to follow her out.
Guan Mengmeng got the hint and escorted Feng Lina to the elevator.
“Mengmeng, sometimes you have to take the initiative.”
“Hao is a very sentimental person. You won’t be at a loss being with him!”
Feng Lina gave her advice earnestly.
She knew Yang Hao had other women, but she also knew that this Hao wouldn’t mistreat his women. So, apart from not having a complete emotional commitment, her cousin could get everything else from him.
And life is never perfect. Besides, her cousin was still young, and even if she started over after two or three years, it would be okay.
Guan Mengmeng nodded; she somewhat understood her cousin’s thinking.
Returning home, she didn’t go straight back to her bedroom but poured herself a glass of wine in the dining room for some courage.
By the time she returned to the bedroom, Yang Hao on her bed seemed to have fallen asleep, breathing evenly.
She approached cautiously, helping Yang Hao take off his shirt and pants.
After all, it’s uncomfortable to sleep in shirts and pants.
But now that the weather was warming up, after removing the shirt and pants, Yang Hao was only left in his boxer shorts.
The sight of the man’s body and the bulging area caught her eye, and Guan Mengmeng’s cheeks turned hot.
Of course, this was related to the glass of wine she had poured for herself.
Guan Mengmeng’s bedroom was designed as a suite, with a small dressing room of several square meters. She went to the dressing room to change into her pajamas, and she hesitated a lot while choosing. Some of her pajamas were conservative, some more daring.
After much deliberation, she chose the latter.
(Ignore the details, just get the idea)
Back in the room, she cautiously lay on the other side of the bed and then turned off the lights in the room.
