“I’ll go home now. Remember to come to the event.”
Before he got off work, Corey received a text message from Ying Xiaoxiao.
After staring at the words on the screen for a long time, Corey turned around and shut down his computer. Getting up, he put on the vest on the back of his armchair and walked out after grabbing the car keys on the table.
He had been to the Ying family home a couple of times. However, each time, he had parked his car outside. This was the first time that he had drove the car into the Ying family’s garden.
Ying Xiaoxiao, who stood outside the door waiting for him to park, ran over and stopped in front of him. As she straightened his tie for him, she whispered to him, “We must act more intimate later on. Don’t mess up.”
She was so close to him that he could smell the light fragrance on her body.
Lowering his gaze, he could see her trembling eyes, as well as her cherry mouth as she opened it to speak.
However, unknowingly, he felt heated. Subconsciously, he wanted to loosen his tight tie, but he accidentally touched her hand.
Ying Xiaoxiao raised her head to look at him, her beautiful eyes shining with confusion.
He licked his dry lips and smiled embarrassingly. “My tie is a little tight.”
Ying Xiaoxiao frowned. “Tight? Let me loosen it for you.”
As she spoke, she loosened the tie for him before asking, “Is it still tight now?”
Corey shook his head. “Not anymore.”
Immediately following that, he saw someone walk out of the manor. Before he could even decipher who that person was, he hugged her tightly.
Instantly, his clear and crisp smell attacked her nose and filled her nostrils, making her dazed.
A low voice rang in her ears. “Is that your father?”
“My father?”
Ying Xiaoxiao frowned as she followed his gaze. Indeed, her father had walked out and was staring at them.
He had hugged her because of her father.
A little disappointed, she mocked herself. “How much did she anticipate this moment?”
“Yeah, that’s my father. Let’s go over now.”
As she spoke, she moved away from his embrace before hugging his arm, smiling at him. “Let’s go.”
Seeing her cute little face break into a smile, his heart trembled as a unique feeling appeared from within.
He passively followed her footsteps, focusing his gaze on her body for every single step.
“Dad.”
When her crisp voice rang out, he noticed and blinked, focusing his gaze back on the middle-aged man near the door.
Nighttime descends early in autumn. Following the rays from the sunset, Corey stared comfortably into Father Ying’s eyes.
Even though Father Ying was already over 50 years old, he had a good figure and stood upright. With an elegant and calm expression, his lips were tightly shut as his brilliant eyes shone sharply and coldly.
However, compared to the old man, he seemed much more benevolent.
Corey smiled at him. “Good evening, Uncle. I’m Corey, Xiaoxiao’s boyfriend.”
Father Ying stared at him for a long while before glancing at Ying Xiaoxiao and speaking in a low voice. “Come in.”
Father Ying turned into the manor.
Corey turned around and smirked. “Your father doesn’t seem to like me.”
Ying Xiaoxiao glared at him. “You must be God to know that he doesn’t like you when you’ve just met him!”
Corey raised his brows and replied solemnly, “I’m not God, but I am a man, like your father. I can easily sense if the other party likes me. Obviously, your father doesn’t like me.”
