Chapter 155: Chapter 155: Seeking Out

"Then just pretend I saw it wrong. I want to eat popcorn; you feed me." Xu Ke chuckled softly, his eyes drifting between the popcorn and Lin Mengyao’s bright red lips.

Looking into Xu Ke’s deep eyes, Lin Mengyao extended her hand to take a piece of popcorn from the bucket and brought it to Xu Ke’s mouth, but Xu Ke turned his head to avoid it. "I don’t want this one; I want one like just now."

"There’s only this one, take it or leave it." Lin Mengyao’s cheeks were so red they could drip blood, even her nose had started to sweat.

Xu Ke looked at Lin Mengyao’s current state, let out a soft laugh, and opened his mouth to take the piece of popcorn along with Lin Mengyao’s fingers into his mouth. His soft and agile tongue curled around Lin Mengyao’s finger, satisfied as he watched Lin Mengyao’s eyes widen in shock and her limbs stiffen. Only then did he arch an eyebrow and slowly took the popcorn from Lin Mengyao’s hand to eat it.

"Didn’t you say you wanted to eat popcorn? Why aren’t you opening your mouth, do you want me to feed you? Hmm?" Xu Ke looked at Lin Mengyao’s dazed and silly expression, a softness overwhelming his heart, yet his actions showed no hesitation. He didn’t give Lin Mengyao a chance to refuse and directly blocked Lin Mengyao’s mouth, pushing the popcorn from his own mouth into hers.

"Mmh." Lin Mengyao hummed softly, her powerless hands clinging to Xu Ke’s shoulders, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

A battle belonging to the two of them began in this dark cinema, in a corner where no one noticed.

Lin Mengyao had completely lost track of what the latter half of the movie was about. She had already turned into a puddle of water from Xu Ke’s constant teasing, the blush on her cheeks never fading. As the movie ended, Xu Ke appeared unusually content, while Lin Mengyao’s cheeks were flush, her eyes seemingly brimming with a lake of spring water, exceptionally moist, walking with a soft and weak gait.

"Can you still walk? Do you need me to carry you?" Xu Ke supported Lin Mengyao with one hand, a satisfied smile on his face as he asked.

"Being carried out by you, how am I supposed to live it down?" Lin Mengyao gave Xu Ke a weak and unthreatening glare, biting her lips, she spoke with slight resentment.

"You could pretend to faint." Just as Xu Ke’s words trailed off, Lin Mengyao suddenly felt herself being lifted, and by the time she regained her senses, she had already fallen into Xu Ke’s arms.

"Xu Ke." Lin Mengyao instinctively wrapped her arms around Xu Ke’s neck and raised her voice to shout.

"Everyone’s watching you, quickly pretend to faint." At this moment, Xu Ke acted like a child, winking at Lin Mengyao with a mischievous smile.

Lin Mengyao’s gaze lightly swept over the surrounding people and saw some glances subtly directed their way. Shyly, she buried her face in Xu Ke’s shoulder, like an ostrich pretending to be dead, too embarrassed to look out, but her neck slowly turned pink under Xu Ke’s gaze.

"How did I not notice you were so easily embarrassed before?" Xu Ke, staring at Lin Mengyao’s exposed pink skin, laughed lightly.

"Shut up, let’s go home quickly." Lin Mengyao quietly pinched the flesh on Xu Ke’s waist, whispered softly.

"Then you better hold on tight." Xu Ke jostled Lin Mengyao upwards, and with her soft exclamations, he carried her out of the mall, his heart sparked with a fire that urged him to hurry home and throw Lin Mengyao onto the bed.

Outside the hilltop villa, Yun Rulan sat in the car with red eyes, trapped in darkness like a desperate beast, breathing heavily, her eyes fixed fiercely on the unopened villa gate, hoping for that person’s arrival.

The car’s heater was off, and the mountain wind battered the car window, causing Yun Rulan to involuntarily shiver. At that moment, the familiar Lamborghini appeared in Yun Rulan’s view, shooting a startling brightness into her previously dim eyes.

Inside the car, Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao had just finished a round of kissing, their eyes glistening, their breaths intertwined sketched out a trace of ambiguity. "Not here, let’s go back." Lin Mengyao panted heavily, her hands pressed against Xu Ke’s shoulders, her voice as faint as a mosquito.

"What did you say?" Xu Ke raised an eyebrow, a somewhat dazed look in his eyes.

"Never mind if you can’t hear it, just hurry up and open the door." Seeing Xu Ke’s silly, dazed demeanor, Lin Mengyao didn’t know what to say, so she could only glare at him fiercely.

"No, repeat what you just said. Did you just decide to give yourself to me?" Xu Ke, snapped back from his daze by Lin Mengyao’s glare, was immediately enveloped by immense joy. His eyes, which were just a bit red, now shone like spotlights, as he excitedly placed his hands on Lin Mengyao’s shoulders and asked.

Lin Mengyao looked into Xu Ke’s eyes, her cheeks once again slowly turning a rosy hue. Just as she was about to say something, the car window behind Xu Ke was knocked on.

"Xu Ke, I know you’re in there. Come out, I have something to tell you." Yun Rulan urgently knocked on the car window, her knocks growing increasingly forceful.

In the car, Lin Mengyao closed her mouth once more, the words Xu Ke had waited four years to hear were swallowed back in her presence, while the annoying noise outside the window grew louder, making Xu Ke’s eyes red with anger.

"Wait for me."

Xu Ke gave Lin Mengyao a deep glance, turned and opened the car door with enough force to nearly knock the unprepared Yun Rulan back.

"Why are you looking for me?" Xu Ke frowned, his voice cold and devoid of warmth.

Standing in front of Xu Ke, Yun Rulan looked at him with misty eyes, biting her lower lip with her pearly teeth, saying nothing.

"If you called me out for nothing, I’m going back home." Xu Ke suppressed his annoyance, seeing Yun Rulan still wasn’t speaking, he frowned, threw out this sentence, and was about to return to the car to coax the words Lin Mengyao hadn’t finished saying out of her. But he didn’t anticipate that, in the moment it took him to turn, Yun Rulan suddenly lunged at him, embracing him tightly.

"Let go." Xu Ke’s voice was as sharp as a blade as he looked at the pair of pale hands suddenly around his waist.

"I won’t let go, Xu Ke. Now only you can save the Yun family. Will you help us? The Yun family can’t fall. Will you help us rise again?" Yun Rulan’s hands, intertwined and clenching tighter in front of Xu Ke, pulling herself closer to Xu Ke, with such force that she wished to meld into his body.
