Chapter 183: Chapter 183: Dad, Mom, What Are You Doing?

"Daddy had to go out for work today. Didn’t Mommy pick you up?"

Jiang Fan was a little stunned.

"What’s going on with you today?"

Jiang Fan looked up at her.

He noticed her cheeks were slightly flushed, and when he got closer, he could smell the faint scent of alcohol.

"You went drinking? You went drinking and didn’t pick up our child?"

"It was an unexpected situation. I thought you were going to get her."

"I was about to call you partway through, but then..."

"Who told you to go drinking?"

Jiang Fan’s brow was tightly furrowed.

Looking at him, and then at Mengmeng in his arms, Yin Ruxue directly explained what had happened.

She didn’t hide anything, even telling him about her old agreement with Su Qingchu.

"So that’s why that bitch was breathing down my neck all day! Turns out she was fucking scared I’d find out, huh? Spying on me?"

Jiang Fan was so angry he had to laugh.

’She set up a scheme that ensnared us both.’

"And this is your ’best friend’?"

Jiang Fan sneered.

"Susu didn’t do it on purpose. Please don’t take it to heart."

"Mengmeng, Mommy was wrong this time. I promise, it will never happen again."

This time, Mengmeng had waited at the school gate for over an hour.

In the end, Nanny Chen had to run to the school to pick up Mengmeng when she couldn’t get in touch with either of them.

"She knew perfectly well that I was going out for dinner tonight—I told her so—and she still called you over to her house without giving any notice."

"Did she even think about Mengmeng?"

"What if no one ever came to pick Mengmeng up? What if I got too drunk, and you got too drunk, and no one answered their phone?"

"What if Nanny Chen happened to have taken the day off?"

"Would Mengmeng have had to spend the night at school then?"

At this point, Jiang Fan was genuinely angry.

’If Su Qingci were here right now, I’d definitely give her a piece of my mind.’

Yin Ruxue fell silent. Even she had to admit her best friend had gone too far.

"Fortunately, nothing disastrous happened this time. Why don’t you go take a shower and get some sleep. I’ll put Mengmeng to bed in a bit."

"You’ve been drinking, so you should rest early."

Jiang Fan sighed. Seeing her like this, he felt a pang of guilt. ’I shouldn’t have said such harsh things. My tone was too aggressive.’

"Let Nanny Chen give Mengmeng her bath. Didn’t you go drinking too?"

"I’ll shower upstairs. You can use the one downstairs."

Jiang Fan nodded and played with Mengmeng for more than half an hour.

It wasn’t until Yin Ruxue had showered and come back downstairs that Jiang Fan asked Nanny Chen to bathe Mengmeng. He then ran upstairs, took a quick shower, and changed into his pajamas.

By the time everything was done, it was past 10 p.m., and the effects of the alcohol were starting to hit Jiang Fan.

When he walked into the bedroom, he found the mother-daughter duo had taken over the entire bed, sleeping sprawled out every which way.

Mengmeng, in particular, was lying completely sideways.

Hearing the door open, Yin Ruxue opened her eyes and shifted slightly to make some room for Jiang Fan.

"Hurry up and get some rest."

"It’s the weekend tomorrow. Mengmeng wants us to take her to the amusement park."

"Alright."

Jiang Fan adjusted Mengmeng’s sleeping position, covered her with her little blanket, and planted a gentle kiss on her forehead.

Then, he lay down on the very edge of the bed.

"Why don’t you sleep over here? I’ll move to the middle."

"Otherwise, you have too little space over there... It won’t be comfortable to sleep."

Yin Ruxue’s voice was as faint as a mosquito’s buzz.

"No, no, it’s fine. I’m good on the edge."

After a moment of hesitation, Jiang Fan still refused.

’I have to admire myself.’

’Any other man would never be able to refuse!’

"Just come over here. If you don’t rest well, people might think I’m abusing you."

Her tone grew a little more forceful. In the end, Jiang Fan obediently moved over and lay down beside her. Yin Ruxue was in the middle, with Mengmeng on the other side.

’Being able to lie down completely instead of on my side feels amazing.’

And so, time passed, but Jiang Fan didn’t feel the slightest bit sleepy. The drunkenness in his head, however, was growing stronger.

He couldn’t help but turn over, only to find Yin Ruxue also on her side, facing him.

Their eyes met, and they stared at each other wordlessly.

Yin Ruxue was blushing even more fiercely than he was, though it was hard to see clearly in the dark.

Just as Jiang Fan was about to turn away, Yin Ruxue’s arm suddenly wrapped around his neck, and she offered him her lips.

The sudden move made Jiang Fan freeze, but a second later, he returned her kiss with the most passionate response.

Before they knew it, their pajamas were gradually peeling off.

Until finally, they were stark naked. Jiang Fan’s eyes were bloodshot and hazy.

Jiang Fan was on top of her, but before he could make a move, a puzzled voice rang out.

"Daddy, Mommy, what are you doing?"

The next second, the two of them froze, their bodies rigid.

The passion, drowsiness, and drunkenness in their minds vanished completely.

"AHEM, um, Mengmeng, why are you awake?"

"Daddy and Mommy... Daddy and Mommy... we’re just playing a game."

Jiang Fan quickly pulled up the blanket, covering Yin Ruxue’s fiery body.

At that moment, Yin Ruxue also buried her head under the covers.

Jiang Fan gently patted Mengmeng, and in no time, the little girl was back in dreamland.

Jiang Fan let out a long breath.

’My heart almost jumped out of my throat.’

"Um, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to... I was drinking... I..."

Jiang Fan stammered, not knowing how to explain himself.

"We’re both adults, and we’d been drinking. Strictly speaking, I was the one who initiated it. I don’t blame you."

"Let’s just pretend this never happened."

Jiang Fan huddled under the covers. He could feel the heat radiating from Yin Ruxue’s body, but he didn’t dare move a muscle.

Especially after hearing her words, he felt so ashamed he wanted to crawl into a hole.

’Her voice is so calm, and look at me...?’

"Um, get dressed."

Yin Ruxue said after a pause.

"Ah? Oh, oh, oh, okay."

Only then did he realize he was stark naked. He quickly picked up his clothes from the floor and threw them on.

"Um, could you pass me my clothes too?"

Only then did Yin Ruxue’s voice carry a trace of shyness.

Jiang Fan didn’t dare hesitate. He picked up all her clothes from the floor—her underwear and everything else—and placed them on the edge of the bed.

"Um, I’ll go out first. You get dressed."

"No need. Just turn your head away and don’t look."
