Oh my god! Why is the boss such a clingy person?

At the dinner table, Su Qingyan continued to act like a good boy, lowering his head to eat and not saying much.

"How old is Xiao Su this year?" Mother Zhou picked up a shrimp for him.

"23. After the New Year it will be my zodiac year." Su Qingyan raised his head and smiled harmlessly at Mother Zhou.

"Which university did you graduate from?" Mother Zhou really liked his smiling and well-behaved appearance.

"A Master's degree from the UK... not worth mentioning." Su Qingyan picked up the cup with some embarrassment.

"Oh, you studied for a master's degree in the UK, that's great." Mother Zhou picked up another piece of fish for him.

"You can't compare with Zhou Cheng. He graduated with a Ph.D. and will go to the United States to attend an international conference at the end of the month." Su Qingyan quickly took the opportunity to praise Zhou Cheng.

"How did you know Mingming, since there's such a big age gap between you and him?" Zhou's mother's face lit up when she heard her son being praised.

Zhou Cheng's nickname is Mingming? Very cute. Su Qingyan secretly glanced at Zhou Cheng and found that he was eating seriously with his head down, so he continued to speak according to the previous confession.

"My colleague is a friend of Xiao Han. My colleague's father had surgery a while ago, and he found Zhou Cheng through Xiao Han. That's how we got to know each other."

"Are you here to attend Xiaohan's wedding too?" Hearing Xiaohan, Mother Zhou became interested again.

"Yeah, we always hang out with Xiao Han when we are free, and we have a pretty good relationship." Su Qingyan saw Zhou's father holding up the wine glass alone, and hurriedly raised his glass and clinked it with his.

"Has Xiao Su made any friends?" As soon as the topic of the wedding came up, Mother Zhou started talking in this direction again.

"Mom, are you checking the household registration?" Zhou Cheng finally spoke.

"I had a very happy chat with Auntie." Su Qingyan said quickly, and then nudged Zhou Cheng with his knee under the table. His reaction was too obvious, so he had to avoid being exposed. "I just graduated not long ago, and work is more important."

"Xiao Su, you and Xiao Han have the same easy-going personality. You two will definitely be able to play together. It's obvious that he is just too stubborn."

When Zhou Cheng heard his mother compare Su Qingyan with Xiao Han, his heart sank. He glanced at Su Qingyan guiltily and found that his expression remained the same.

"Zhou Cheng is pretty good. We are all playful, but he is mature and steady." Su Qingyan continued to praise Zhou Cheng.

"Mom, let him eat something before we talk." Zhou Cheng spoke again.

After the meal, Su Qingyan finally understood who Zhou Cheng inherited his dull and stubborn personality from. Zhou Cheng was simply a replica of his father. His father was even stricter than him. Except for a brief eye contact when clinking glasses with his father, Su Qingyan spent the rest of the time chatting with his mother.

After dinner, Zhou Cheng and Su Qingyan were cleaning up the dishes in the kitchen. Su Qingyan asked Zhou Cheng in a low voice how he performed. Zhou Cheng said that he had already maximized his mother's favorability towards him, and then put the washed dishes in front of him, making him look busy all the time. After hearing this, Su Qingyan smiled and bumped Zhou Cheng's shoulder. Zhou Cheng quickly turned around to see if he was seen, and warned Su Qingyan to be honest and not to give up all the previous efforts.

Mother Zhou quickly came to the kitchen and asked Su Qingyan to go to the living room to eat fruit. She also said something to Zhou Cheng about why he let other people's children work at home.

Zhou Cheng hummed and said nothing. Of course Su Qingyan went to chat with Zhou's mother happily. But when she saw Zhou's father in the living room, her smile immediately diminished by half.

"What does Xiao Su do for a living?" Father Zhou poured a cup of tea for Su Qingyan.

"A company in Mincheng isn't as stable as Zhou Cheng's job." Su Qingyan took the tea handed over by Zhou's father with both hands.

"Your home is in Mincheng?" Father Zhou took a sip of tea.

"My hometown is Xinghai, and I came to Mincheng after graduation. Uncle and aunt, do you have time to visit Xinghai?" Su Qingyan took the grapes given to him by Mother Zhou.

"Xiao Su also works so far away from home?" When Mother Zhou heard him say that, she felt pity for him again.

"Yeah...it's okay, I'm used to it."

When Zhou Cheng came to the living room, he saw the rare laughter in the house and felt like an outsider.

"Be careful when you go to the United States." Zhou Cheng's father said to him after he sat down.

"Got it." Zhou Cheng held the teacup, his palms feeling warm.

Mother Zhou had already cleaned up the guest bedroom that had been turned into a storage room in the afternoon, and replaced the sheets and quilts with new ones. After Zhou Cheng brought Su Qingyan to the guest bedroom, Su Qingyan rolled her eyes at him.

"What? You don't want to act like a good boy anymore?" Zhou Cheng pinched Su Qingyan's chin and shook it.

"Why can't I live with you?" Su Qingyan sat on the bed disappointedly.

"How can you entertain guests like this?" Zhou Cheng also sat next to him.

"I'll come to you in the evening." Su Qingyan suddenly threw Zhou Cheng onto the bed, put her hands on his chest, and leaned over to pursue his lips.

"Stop it, I didn't lock the door." Zhou Cheng looked at the door guiltily, then grabbed Su Qingyan's wrist and pushed him away.

"Too rough, Dr. Zhou." Su Qingyan said, rubbing his wrist.

Zhou Cheng tidied his clothes and went out, not daring to stay in the room for a second longer. All newly-formed couples want to stay together forever, and being apart for a second is torture, and Zhou Cheng is the same, but having lived in such a high-pressure family atmosphere since childhood, he really doesn't dare to go beyond the line.

But Su Qingyan still found Zhou Cheng's bed in the middle of the night.

Zhou Cheng hadn't slept yet. There was a night light on in the bedroom. He was leaning against the head of the bed, wearing blue-light blocking glasses and continuing to optimize his speech on the laptop screen.

Zhou Cheng's heartbeat suddenly accelerated when the door was gently pushed open. Su Qingyan flashed in and then carefully locked the door.

Zhou Cheng closed his notebook and was about to take off his glasses and get out of bed when Su Qingyan suddenly whispered, "Don't move," and then walked over on tiptoe with slippers in hand.

"what happened?"

Zhou Cheng obediently did not move. He watched Su Qingyan wearing his pajamas, walk to the bed, then lift his legs onto the bed and get into his quilt.

"You look so good wearing glasses. Let me see it again." Su Qingyan hugged Zhou Cheng tightly and whispered in his ear.

The side of Zhou Cheng's skin where he blew air trembled instantly. He hugged Su Qingyan back and whispered to him: "Xiao Su, my house is not soundproof."

"I know. I can hear your father coughing. Mr. He always takes a lozenge, which seems to be quite effective. I'll ask him to mail some over tomorrow so that uncle can try." Su Qingyan only dared to speak in a whisper while unbuttoning Zhou Cheng's pajamas.

"No, stop making noise, or we'll hear you." Zhou Cheng grabbed Su Qingyan's impudent hand.

"I won't make a sound." Su Qingyan's hands were restrained, so she kissed Zhou Cheng's neck. When she kissed his Adam's apple, she licked the little mole.

Zhou Cheng exerted force with his hands, turned over and pressed Su Qingyan under him, "You are really brave."

"Brother, come and act like a gangster with me." Su Qingyan finally unbuttoned Zhou Cheng's pajamas and drew circles on his chest.
