83: Chapter 84 Women are more lewd than men when they talk about sex.

Early in the morning, sunlight streamed through the massive floor-to-ceiling windows into the dining room, filling the air with the aroma of coffee and toasted bread.

The rectangular dining table was spread with an exquisite breakfast: freshly baked croissants, perfectly fried bacon and sunny-side-up eggs, fresh fruit salad, and a pot of steaming coffee.

Yin Tianxue and Yu Bo were already sitting at the dining table. Tang Guo rubbed her eyes and walked downstairs, yawning, with clear fatigue on her face and faint dark circles under her eyes.

"Morning, you two." She pulled out a chair and sat down, her gaze sweeping back and forth between Yin Tianxue and Yu Bo, a meaningful smile playing on her lips.

"Morning, Guoguo." Yin Tianxue's face felt slightly warm; she avoided her gaze with some discomfort and reached out to pour her a cup of coffee. "Did you sleep well last night?"

"Well? What do you mean, well?" Tang Guo picked up the coffee, took a big gulp, and glared at the two of them. "Some people were making such a racket, and the soundproofing is terrible. I almost thought the house was being demolished upstairs!"

"Pfft—" Yu Bo was drinking coffee and nearly choked at her words. He began to cough violently, his ears turning bright red instantly. Embarrassed, he lowered his head, pretending to be focused on cutting the fried egg on his plate.

Yin Tianxue's face flushed red to her ears in an instant. She glared at Tang Guo in shame and anger. "Tang Guo! What nonsense are you spouting!"

"How am I spouting nonsense?" Tang Guo put down her coffee cup, cupped her chin in her hands, and watched the two of them with a leisurely, ambiguous look in her eyes. "Last night, some people... tsk tsk tsk. Those sounds, that commotion... CEO Yu, I never would have guessed. You usually look so ascetic and aloof, but in private... are you really that intense?"

Yu Bo was even more embarrassed by her words. He gave a light cough, his ears red enough to drip blood, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. He cast a quick glance at Yin Tianxue and saw that she was also blushing furiously, looking mortified. Feeling both amused and pained for her, he hurriedly spoke up to defuse the situation. "Tang Guo, um... the breakfast is getting cold. Let's eat."

"Yo, already protecting her?" Tang Guo raised an eyebrow, deliberately drawing out her tone. "Fine, fine, I won't say anything else. But Tianxue..." She leaned closer to Yin Tianxue, lowered her voice, and winked mischievously. "You look so radiant today, your eyes brimming with spring. Last night... you were well-nourished, weren't you?"

"Tang Guo!" Yin Tianxue reached out to pinch her, embarrassed and angry. "If you keep talking nonsense, I'm really going to get mad!"

"Alright, alright, I won't say it, I won't say it!" Tang Guo dodged with a laugh, raising her hands in surrender, but the playfulness and knowing look in her eyes couldn't be hidden. "I'm just... looking out for you!"

Watching the two of them laughing and bickering, a gentle smile involuntarily tugged at the corners of Yu Bo's mouth. He picked up a piece of the croissant Yin Tianxue liked and placed it on her plate, saying softly, "Eat more, you've lost weight recently."

Yin Tianxue glared at him, blushing, and muttered under her breath, "It's all because of you..."

Yu Bo immediately admitted his fault. "My fault, my fault. I'll make sure to fatten you up in the future."

Tang Guo watched the natural intimacy and sweetness between the two and nodded inwardly. It seemed the "in-depth communication" last night had been quite effective; the barriers and awkwardness between them seemed to have melted away significantly. Although she teased them, she was actually quite happy for Yin Tianxue. At the very least, when it came to physical compatibility, Yu Bo had not disappointed her. Moreover, judging by their current interactions, their feelings seemed to have warmed up quite a bit as well.

Breakfast proceeded in a subtle yet warm atmosphere. Although Tang Guo no longer teased them blatantly, the ambiguous glances she cast at them from time to time still made Yin Tianxue and Yu Bo feel somewhat restless.

After the meal, Yu Bo checked the time and said to Yin Tianxue, "Tianxue, I have a meeting at the company this morning, so I have to go first. Are you... going to rest at home today? Or go to the company?"

Yin Tianxue's face warmed slightly, and she said in a low voice, "I... will go to the company in the afternoon. You go ahead, be careful on the road."

Yu Bo nodded and looked at Tang Guo. "Tang Guo, please keep Tianxue company. I'll have someone deliver lunch at noon. What would you like to eat?"

"No need to bother, CEO Yu," Tang Guo said with a smile. "Tianxue and I will handle it ourselves. You go do your work, don't worry about us."

Yu Bo smiled and didn't insist further. He stood up, walked over to Yin Tianxue, lowered his head, and pressed a soft kiss to her forehead, his voice gentle. "I'm leaving then. Call me if anything happens."

"Mm." Yin Tianxue nodded, her face flushed.

Yu Bo nodded at Tang Guo again before turning to leave.

Once Yu Bo's figure disappeared at the door, Tang Guo immediately put down her chopsticks, leaned in front of Yin Tianxue with a gossipy look, and asked with a wicked grin, "Confess honestly, how was the battle last night?"

Yin Tianxue's face flushed red again. She reached out to push her away. "Tang Guo! Are you ever going to stop!"

"No way!" Tang Guo persisted, cupping her chin in her hands and looking at her with sparkling eyes. "Tell me, tell me! That kid Yu Bo... how's his technique? So persistent? Pretty impressive, right? I noticed your walking posture was a bit off this morning; you must have been tossed around quite a bit last night, right?"

Yin Tianxue was mortified by her questions and grabbed a throw pillow from her side to throw at her. "Tang Guo! You pervert! If you ask again, I'm really going to cut ties with you!"

Tang Guo caught the pillow with a laugh, leaned in to wrap her arm around her shoulder, and coaxed, "Oh, come on, my dear Tianxue, my Baby, just tell me! Between us sisters, what can't we talk about? I'm just... checking him for you! What if he looks good but is useless, or has some hidden ailment? We should find someone else sooner rather than later!"

"You..." Yin Tianxue was so exasperated she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She reached out to pinch her waist. "Stop talking nonsense! Yu Bo... he's very good!"

"Oh? Very good?" Tang Guo's eyes lit up. She seized on her words and asked with a wicked grin, "How good exactly? Tell me specifically? Time? Frequency? Size? Hmm?"

Yin Tianxue felt her whole body burning from the questions, so embarrassed she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. She glared at Tang Guo and said through gritted teeth, "Tang Guo! If you ask again, I'm really going to get mad!"

"Alright, alright, I won't ask, I won't ask!" Seeing that she was truly embarrassed and annoyed, Tang Guo quickly stopped while she was ahead, though a mischievous smile remained on her face. "Looking at you like this, I already know. That kid Yu Bo... not bad. He usually looks so ascetic and aloof, but I didn't expect him to be... so skilled in private. He really served our Eldest Miss Yin well. Your complexion this morning, your eyes... tsk, a woman nourished by love is just different!"

Yin Tianxue glared at her with a flushed face, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curve upward slightly. Last night... was indeed wonderful. Yu Bo's gentleness, patience, and... technique all made her sink into it, unable to extricate herself. That ultimate pleasure of body and soul intertwined was something she had never experienced before. Moreover, more importantly, in the height of passion, she could clearly feel Yu Bo's unmasked love and cherishing for her. That feeling of being deeply loved, of being held in the palm of his hand, made the last trace of her misgivings vanish into thin air.

"Alright, I won't tease you anymore." Seeing her sweet and shy expression, Tang Guo was happy for her as well. She wrapped her arm around Yin Tianxue's shoulder, her tone becoming more serious. "Seriously, Tianxue, seeing you and Yu Bo like this now, I'm really happy for you. Although he was indeed a jerk before and made you sad, at least now, he has truly repented and is genuinely treating you well. Last night... ahem, although the commotion was a bit loud, it at least shows that you are physically compatible, which is very important. And I can tell, he truly loves you and cares about you."

"However, you really should install a door with excellent soundproofing in your room. I listened to four or five songs in my room. Even after taking off my headphones, I could still vaguely hear your moans. You guys can go for over half an hour at a time. Impressive; it even makes me feel a bit itchy myself."
