344: Yan Ran's past

It wasn't like in idol dramas, where the heroine falls on the hero and they just happen to kiss.

However, when Ye Su saw Yan Ran pouncing towards him, he subconsciously opened his arms to catch her, holding her tightly in his embrace.

In an instant, Ye Su felt a huge pressure on his chest.

Even Chen Xinyi's presence paled in comparison to this pressure.

As luck would have it, when Ye Su held Yan Ran, although they didn't kiss, their noses touched.

As their eyes met, both Ye Su and Yan Ran could feel each other's hot breath on their faces.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room turned pink, just short of a gooey BGM starting to play.

Although she had inexplicably wanted to tease Ye Su these past two times at home,

Yan Ran hadn't had such intimate contact with a man since moving into this villa two years ago.

In fact, this was the first time she had truly scrutinized a man's appearance from such a close distance:

And honestly, looking at him this way, he was quite handsome.

Yan Ran used to think that female fans who liked 'fresh meat' celebrities had something wrong with their brains.

Now she realized she had indeed been overacting before.

Who wouldn't like such a pleasing man?

Perhaps it was as the internet said.

If the savior was ordinary-looking, it was, "This humble woman wishes to be a cow or a horse in her next life to repay your kindness."

If he was handsome, it was, "This humble woman wishes to offer herself in marriage; I hope my benefactor will not disdain me."

He was right in front of her, the person who, in the early hours of Monday, when she was most desperate and thought she was about to drown in the reservoir, had descended like a hero on a colorful cloud from a movie, saving her with a single grab.

Afterward, he allowed her to drop all her defenses, sleeping soundly until dawn without a care while they were alone in the room.

Moreover, this person possessed an inexplicable aura that deeply attracted her.

Driven by an impulse she couldn't explain, Yan Ran suddenly leaned in, her lipstick-free lips deeply pressing against Ye Su's.

Mmm!

Yan Ran's unexpected action caused the already flustered Ye Su to instantly widen his eyes, and a rush of blood surged to his head.

It was only after feeling the touch on her lips that Yan Ran suddenly sobered up, and panic began to set in.

She was afraid that her sudden action would make their future interactions awkward.

But just as Yan Ran tried to get up, she felt the arms around her back suddenly tighten, holding her firmly.

Then, Ye Su, who was beneath her, began to passionately respond to her "impudence."

She already had an inexplicable fondness for this man who had saved her life.

Seeing that things had come to this, Yan Ran simply let go of her last shred of reserve, responding to Ye Su with even greater passion.

One was full of youthful vigor, the other was unbearably lonely; they were like dry wood and a blazing fire, igniting instantly.

After their embrace, Ye Su effortlessly picked up Yan Ran in a princess carry and walked towards the large bed.

During the process, Yan Ran, for the first time in a long while, acted like a shy young girl, burying her head deeply into Ye Su's shoulder, while also feeling his strong, powerful arms.

What happened next was, of course, a natural progression... An hour later, Yan Ran lay disheveled in Ye Su's arms, staring blankly at the ceiling, no longer caring about trivial matters like not blow-drying her hair before bed causing migraines.

This was her first time truly experiencing what it meant to be in seventh heaven.

After all, she was a 34-year-old woman, at an age where desires are strong.

But since starting her new life and moving into the villa two years ago, she hadn't accepted any other men, occasionally only solving her needs through her "new energy boyfriend."

Now, the suppressed desires of two years had finally been thoroughly released in the past hour.

After regaining her senses, Yan Ran turned to look at Ye Su, who was holding her in his arms, her large, watery eyes like a rippling spring pond.

She hadn't expected this man to be so excellent in this regard as well; one could say he perfectly matched every woman's dream partner, right?

It was just a pity that, although she maintained herself very well and, just by looking at her face, was no less attractive than the twenty-something female employees at her company, her actual age was still there.

With this man, who hadn't even graduated from college, it was basically destined to be a fruitless endeavor.

But it didn't matter; being happy was enough. Why think so far ahead?

Looking at him just now, he was still very much infatuated with her.

"No way." Noticing the signal in Yan Ran's gaze, Ye Su let out an exaggerated "Wow!":

"We just finished the first half, and you already want to play the second half so soon?"

Then, Ye Su feigned helpless concession:

"Alright, I'll accompany you to the end tonight. Let's continue!"

"A thirty-year-old is a wolf, a forty-year-old is a tiger, a fifty-year-old can suck up dirt while sitting"—it was indeed true.

Since his Physique attribute had gradually climbed, Ye Su had always deliberately restrained himself from speeding when exchanging "driving skills" with Chen Xinyi.

He was afraid that if he accidentally hit the gas too hard, he would blow up his own "car."

But Yan Ran's wolf-like and tiger-like age, and her uninhibited performance just now, made Ye Su no longer worry about speeding, allowing him to drive to his heart's content.

Ye Su's evaluation of their recent "exchange" could be summed up in just four words: utterly exhilarating!

Plus, Yan Ran's figure, which would earn her double pay even if she went to Jingdezhen to print bowls, made Ye Su want to gallop on the battlefield again.

At this moment, his "good brother" also gave Ye Su the strongest support.

"Ah!"

Sensing the change, Yan Ran couldn't help but be startled by Ye Su's Physique:

"Wait a moment, let me rest a bit. Let's chat for a while, too."

Even as a captain for two years, after the past hour, Yan Ran was a bit overwhelmed and had to half-coquettishly request a halftime break.

"Alright," Ye Su said with a hint of regret, "What do you want to talk about?"

"Pfft—" Seeing Ye Su's eager expression, Yan Ran chuckled, then her face inexplicably dimmed:

"Do you want to know how I, a lone individual, managed to build up Yuexinhui?"

"Hmm?" Ye Su was a little surprised to hear that.

He had previously guessed how Yan Ran became the female boss of Yuexinhui.

Now that Yan Ran brought it up herself, it immediately caught Ye Su's attention:

"Of course I'm interested."

"Then let me tell you about my past."

Yan Ran seemed to have made a great decision before she began to recount her experiences after attending university in her hometown.

It was pretty much as Ye Su had guessed; Yan Ran had indeed, during her university days, by chance been noticed by a certain person and subsequently became that person's secretly kept mistress.

Later, that person discovered that Yan Ran indeed had a talent for business and commercial management, so he secretly supported her, providing funds and assistance, helping her to become the female boss of Yuexinhui.

Because everything was handled cleanly and there was no overt connection between them, Yan Ran was able to continue running Yuexinhui even after that person's incident.

And even after that person's incident two years ago, Yan Ran still secretly provided a monthly living allowance to his family.

Although not a huge amount, it was enough for his family to live comfortably without worries.
