356: Landlord
After hearing Ye Su's answer, Chen Xinyi's vision went black, and she lost the ability to speak.
She couldn't figure out why she was so devoted to this man.
But hearing Ye Su say that he planned to have two girlfriends and didn't want to break up with her, the heartstrings that had been tightly wound since Chen Xinyi first saw Yan Ran quietly relaxed.
"Sigh— Anyway, from the very beginning, I never expected him to belong only to me."
At least the second girlfriend he found now was Yan Ran, who had excellent conditions in all aspects, so Chen Xinyi could accept it.
If Ye Su had found someone whose figure and appearance were inferior to hers, that would be when Chen Xinyi should be sad.
After thinking it through, Chen Xinyi gathered her mood and rolled her eyes at Ye Su with annoyance: "You playboy, you certainly don't beat around the bush at all."
Seeing Chen Xinyi's reaction, Ye Su understood immediately, knowing he had passed this hurdle.
Yan Ran had long known about Chen Xinyi, and now Chen Xinyi had accepted Yan Ran. Perhaps in the future, the three of them could play "Fighting the Landlord" all night!
Thinking of that scene, Ye Su couldn't help but want to laugh out loud.
"What bad idea are you cooking up again?"
The two had great chemistry. One look at Ye Su's expression, and Chen Xinyi knew he was definitely thinking about nonsense again: "I'm still talking to you, hey!"
"Oh—" Ye Su hugged Chen Xinyi with a cheeky grin: "I'm not cooking up any bad ideas. I'm just happy to have such an understanding, gentle, generous, stunning, and beautiful girlfriend."
Chen Xinyi struggled only symbolically before giving up resistance and letting Ye Su hold her: "Smooth talker. No wonder a big boss like Sister Ran was tricked by you."
Chen Xinyi turned her head in Ye Su's arms, looking at the man holding her from another angle: "I really don't know how many more women will be tricked by that mouth of yours in the future."
After accepting reality, Chen Xinyi's way of addressing Yan Ran changed back to "Sister Ran," and she no longer called her by her full name.
"What do you mean 'tricked'? You make it sound like I specialize in deceiving women's feelings."
Ye Su looked at Chen Xinyi righteously: "I always trade sincerity for sincerity, okay? Just like I do with you."
Hearing Ye Su's semi-confessional joke, Chen Xinyi held back for a moment, but couldn't help turning her head and revealing a smile.
Immediately after, Chen Xinyi suddenly sat up and looked at Ye Su with concern: "I'm fine, I've already been wrapped around your finger anyway. But Yan Ran has such great conditions, she's the boss of Joyful Gathering, and who knows how much she's worth."
"It's fine for now, maybe because she's just started dating you, she doesn't mind our relationship. But if she can't accept it later and forces you to choose between us, what will you do?"
"Then I'd definitely choose you." Ye Su pulled Chen Xinyi back into his arms: "You were the first to enter our Ye family's door. As long as you don't want to leave, no one else matters."
Although she didn't know if Ye Su was just saying this to coax her while Yan Ran wasn't around, Chen Xinyi still felt sweet inside after hearing it.
It seems that after getting another girlfriend, this man has finally learned to say a few sweet words to coax people.
"But even if Sister Ran doesn't mind, what if her family discovers our relationship and sends people to retaliate against you?"
In Chen Xinyi's view, for Yan Ran to be able to open a Joyful Gathering, she must have inherited the family business. This also meant that Yan Ran had a big family behind her.
How could such a wealthy, prestigious family accept that Yan Ran's boyfriend had another girlfriend?
Chen Xinyi had already started imagining what would happen if the three of them were discovered: Yan Ran's family would be furious, then hire assassins to throw her and Ye Su into the Pearl River to feed the fish.
"Actually, there's only Sister Ran left in her family now..."
Ye Su thought for a moment and decided to tell Chen Xinyi about Yan Ran's background, though he omitted the reason for how she started her business.
"Ah!" Between women, there is ultimately more empathy.
Hearing that Yan Ran's father had passed away when she was just a few years old, and then she was abandoned by her mother at her grandmother's house and raised by her grandmother. When she was only in her teens, her grandmother passed away, and she had to support herself alone, without a single person around to talk to. Even her only younger sister had been sent away by their parents when she was a month old.
Chen Xinyi's eyes turned red: "So Sister Ran's life story is so rough. It's a good thing she made it through and now has her own career."
"Anyway, just remember not to mention her sister when you meet next time."
"I know." After wiping her eyes, Chen Xinyi looked at Ye Su suspiciously: "You didn't find out about Sister Ran's background and then take advantage of her vulnerability to trick her, did you?"
"What kind of talk is that!" Ye Su put on an innocent expression: "She was the one who made the first move on me, you have no idea!"
Ye Su was about to tearfully reconstruct the "crime scene" for Chen Xinyi, but she slapped her hand over his mouth: "Forget it. With Sister Ran's conditions, what kind of young stud hasn't she seen? Why would she make a move on you? Why don't you say you were drugged and knocked out by her instead?"
"Heaven is my witness, every word I said is the truth!" Ye Su cried out in grievance: "She just kissed me right then and there, and I'm a hot-blooded young man. You tell me, what was I supposed to do!"
"Hehe." The only response to Ye Su was a disdainful laugh from Chen Xinyi.
But looking at Ye Su's expression, Chen Xinyi couldn't help but believe him. Could it really have been Sister Ran who made the first move? It was one thing for her to be wrapped around this man's finger. But how could a woman like Sister Ran also be attracted to him?
Unable to figure it out, Chen Xinyi had to give up dwelling on the question: "Then does that mean in the future, I have to be the mistress, and Sister Ran is the main wife?"
"Didn't I tell you? You were the first to enter my old Ye family's door. According to the order of arrival, you are the first wife, and Sister Ran is the second wife. In the future, she has to call you 'older sister'."
"Oh, 'older sister,' is it?" Chen Xinyi smiled playfully: "Next time I meet Sister Ran, should I say that to her?"
"Don't!" Ye Su hurriedly stopped Chen Xinyi from this dangerous idea: "This is our secret. How can you just say it out loud?"
Chen Xinyi gave a look of [I know you too well]: "I can't be bothered with you, I'm going to take a shower."
After speaking, Chen Xinyi got up, first put the clothes the two had bought that afternoon into the washing machine, and then went back to the master bedroom to get clothes for her shower.
After the rain cleared, while Chen Xinyi was tidying up the new clothes, Ye Su returned to the guest bedroom.
He first took out the Lucky Dice, guessed [1], and casually threw it onto the table.
Today is Sunday, and the intelligence income is only the thousand or so yuan from the Secondhand Shop. Playing with the Lucky Dice, Ye Su naturally had no psychological burden.
Seeing the dice roll a few times and stop on [6], Ye Su put the dice away and took out his phone to send a message to Yan Ran.
