Yaqing: "Kevin, You've Earned Your Keep as a Dad These Past Three Years." (4K) (Part 2)

Mei, who was waiting for the meal to be served, was very puzzled by this scene. Although she had heard that boys liked to go to the toilet together, she thought it was unusual for them to share a toilet.

"Su, do you boys all like to go to the bathroom together?" Mei asked Su this bold question, completely puzzled.

How did you come up with this idea?

Since renting Golden Courtyard, Su feels like she's about to transform from a surgeon into a psychiatrist, seeing everyone as if they're sick.

For example, the plum blossoms now.

Su looked at her with a strange expression.

Perhaps because it was considered impolite, or perhaps because it might affect one's appetite at the dinner table, Su refused to answer Mei's question.

Mei still looked curious, her eyes full of curiosity.

"Men go to the toilet together mostly to smoke. If there are three or more stalls, they won't occupy the two adjacent stalls."

Mobius suddenly spoke.

This made Mei even more curious, and it also aroused the curiosity of everyone else.

How did Mobius know about such a subtle question?

Mobius seemed to realize what was happening, and said without changing his expression, "Yaqing told me."

"What do you guys talk about every day?" Mei complained.

Inside the toilet.

"???"

Kevin stared blankly at Yaqing, who had pinned him against the smooth wall.

"I'm not gay."

Kevin hugged himself comically, looking at Yaqing.

"Nonsense, I'm not doing it either." Yaqing replied irritably, realizing that her action had caused a misunderstanding, she quickly withdrew her hand and even rinsed it several times with the tap in disgust.

"If you're going to the toilet, just go to the toilet. Why did you drag me in? Are you asking me to help you carry you?"

Kevin was speechless.

"Lift your butt."

Yaqing retorted.

"Hmm, that works too."

Kevin said with a smile.

"Get lost."

Yaqing gave Kevin a hard push, Kevin stumbled back a few steps and plopped down on the toilet.

"To be honest, what are you planning to discuss in secret, without their notice, by bringing this in?"

Kevin knew perfectly well that Yaqing wouldn't do anything without a reason. Pulling him into the bathroom and closing the door meant she must have something private to tell him, or perhaps she wanted to avoid someone's gaze.

Yaqing leaned against the cabinet with the faucet integrated, her hands resting on the countertop, and said, "Kevin, do you remember what day Mei's birthday is?"

"September 17th," Kevin blurted out.

What's the date today?

"September 10th..."

Kevin realized something halfway through his sentence, and his pupils contracted slightly.

"Got it? Eden just called me to celebrate May's 28th birthday."

"Even Eden remembers, and I actually forgot. I'm such a bad boyfriend..."

Kevin paused for a moment, then smiled.

"Oh dear, I'm getting goosebumps." Yaqing joked, trying to calm Kevin down, and asked, "Is the gift ready?"

Kevin shook his head.

"I originally planned to propose to Mei on her birthday."

Kevin's words shocked Yaqing immensely.

"I forgot about it later." Kevin scratched his head sheepishly. "Maybe I'm like you, I like to run away from things."

"Aren't you going to talk anymore?"

"I'm so sorry."

Yaqing was silent for a moment, then asked, "So you want to propose today?"

"Forget it, I'm not prepared at all. Mei doesn't know anyway, so let's just pretend this doesn't exist. I'll propose to Mei next year when everything is ready."

Kevin kept his head down.

"Preparing? You've been preparing for seven years, boss. In another year, you'll be 30." Yaqing patted Kevin on the shoulder. "A sage in Shenzhou once said, 'At thirty, one stands firm.' Stop preparing and start today."

"But..."

Kevin was clearly hesitant.

"I'll arrange the ring, and Eden will take care of the venue." Yaqing smiled. "Kevin, you're somewhat famous now. Wouldn't it be better to propose to Mei under the watchful eyes of everyone?"

Kevin was stunned.

After a long while, Kalpas, seeing that the noodles he had painstakingly prepared were about to clump together, finally couldn't bear it any longer and knocked on the bathroom door, "You two..."

Kalpas was about to speak.

The toilet sliding door opened.

Kevin walked out of there, beaming, while Yaqing's smile made Kalpas feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Kalpas seemed to have made a connection to something.

I gradually moved a little further away from the two of them.

"The noodles are cooked, hurry up and eat, but if they get soggy, you'll be ruining my hard work!"

Yaqing and Kevin returned to the dining table together.

Kevin was probably fantasizing about what would happen that night; he couldn't stop smiling.

"Eat quickly, what are you thinking about?"

Mei urged him on.

"Oh oh oh oh."

Kevin rummaged through the noodles in his bowl.

Sitting opposite them Mobius seemed to have noticed something and asked Yaqing, who was sitting next to him, "What did you two discuss in the restroom?"

"Senior, curiosity and anticipation are indispensable."

"Snort."

Mobius snorted coldly, put down her chopsticks, and went upstairs without looking back, preparing to change her clothes for going out, since she was still wearing the same dinosaur pajamas as Yaqing.

Yaqing and Kevin exchanged glances.

Both parties instantly understood what the other meant.

"I'm done eating! Mei, I'm going upstairs to change my clothes."

Seeing Kevin run upstairs excitedly like a child, even Mei, with her intelligence, was baffled. "Is it really necessary to be so excited about Eden's concert?"

Su watched Yaqing follow closely behind upstairs, then glanced at the puzzled Mei, shook her head, and sighed, "Love is truly a deadly poison, but it also has the effect of making people stupid."

Hearing Su's sentiments, Mei was even more bewildered.

"Something feels off today."

Inside Yaqing's room on the second floor.

Kevin sat in the gaming chair that Yaqing had specially customized.

Yaqing opened the cabinet under the computer, took out a small box, hesitated for a moment, and casually tossed it to Kevin without any hesitation or lingering feelings.

"What is this?" Kevin asked curiously, shaking the small box, which made no sound.

"A ring," Yaqing replied calmly.

"What?!"

A flicker of excitement crossed Kevin's face, but it quickly vanished. After a moment of silence, he said, "I'm sorry."

"It's okay, she doesn't know anyway."

Exactly the same words.

The words, spoken by two different people, conveyed completely opposite yet identical meanings.

"When you get married, Sue and I will be your best men."

"Must!"

"And your son's godfather."

"... That's impossible."

Yaqing burst out laughing.

"Alright, go change your clothes."

Upon hearing Yaqing's order to leave, Kevin clutched the small box tightly and got up to leave, but when he reached the door, Yaqing suddenly called him back.

Kevin wasn't sure what kind of emotions he was feeling.

Conflict, fear, joy...

"Kevin, you and May have been dating for almost eight years. Don't embarrass yourselves tonight, be more energetic."

"Inevitable!"

"Good, well done."

Yaqing took off her dinosaur pajamas and put on a black shirt.

"Yaqing, why did you suddenly decide not to go?"

Elysia looked at Yaqing in surprise.

Eden had finally managed to hold a concert in the Far East, Miss Pink Elf naturally wanted everyone in the Golden Courtyard to have a team-building activity together. She wouldn't feel comfortable if anyone was missing.

"There's no other way, Elysia. There's an urgent matter at the company. We received a document from the Central Europe headquarters that I need to sign as soon as possible. Don't worry, I'll definitely be there tonight."

Yaqing looked helpless.

"Alright then..." Elysia compromised, after all, business was the most important thing.

Mobius frowned.

As if by some unspoken connection, Yaqing seemed to hear Mobius's voice in her ear.

What are you up to all of a sudden?

Yaqing realized he was overthinking things. This wasn't the world of his dreams, so how could there be such a thing as telepathy?

"Goodbye, Brother Yaqing." Little Griseo waved.

"Come over soon." Kevin patted Yaqing on the shoulder.

After everyone had left the Golden Courtyard and headed to the largest and most famous venue in Changkong City, Yaqing stood at the entrance of the courtyard, took out her phone, and made a call.

"Rita, how long would it take if I wanted to see the biggest fireworks display in the Far East tonight?"

When Rita received the call, she was traveling in Shenzhou with Shigure Kira. At that moment, she was completely stunned.

But as a perfect secretary, she quickly realized, "Yaqing, what size fireworks display would you like?"

Upon hearing Yaqing's name, the women's cheerful voices immediately ceased as they strained to listen to the conversation on the phone. Rita, as they wished, turned on the speakerphone.
