Chapter 11 : Is He Teasing Her?
On the other side, Yan Mian was resting in the side hall.
As time passed, her emotions gradually calmed down.
Until she heard the sound of the main hall door opening, she instinctively stood up.
Walking past the carved wooden pillars, she looked up and saw a man striding towards her.
Bo Jingyan was dressed in a black suit, with broad shoulders and narrow hips. Paired with his handsome and cold face, he exuded a seductive charm with a hint of forbidden desire.
It had to be admitted that this man was truly a favored child of God.
He had both looks and money, a perfect dream lover.
She raised her eyebrows and went to greet him.
"Mr. Bo, I came to accompany Chenchen. I apologize for disturbing your residence."
Bo Jingyan adjusted his slightly tight tie and gave her a casual glance, his thin lips slightly parting.
"No problem."
Yan Mian smiled faintly as she watched Bo Jingyan walk past her. However, he suddenly stopped.
She glanced at him and saw that he was staring at her face, slowly leaning towards her.
Puzzled, she asked, "Mr. Bo?"
Bo Jingyan's nostrils twitched as he tried to capture the lingering fragrance on her body.
It felt... familiar.
Where had he smelled this scent before?
He moved closer, and Yan Mian leaned back against the wall.
Finally, his face stopped beside hers, and he took a deep breath.
This action was incredibly teasing.
Yan Mian widened her eyes, feeling her ears burning.
"Mr. Bo, what are you doing?"
She took a few steps back, staring at him in astonishment.
Bo Jingyan's eyes darkened slightly, but he remained calm and indifferent. He spoke in a plain tone, "What brand of perfume are you wearing?"
"I don't wear perfume," she replied in a low voice, furrowing her brows.
Bo Jingyan narrowed his ink-like eyes and let out a low hum.
"You smell nice."
Yan Mian: "..."
Was he... teasing her?!
"You."
For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
On the other hand, Bo Jingyan casually walked away as if nothing had happened.
She stood still, her eyelids twitching twice.
If it weren't for Chenchen's sake, she would have left now!
But she couldn't break her appointment with the little guy. She glared at his back and walked in the opposite direction of Bo Jingyan.
Meanwhile, near the kitchen door, Yan Feifei watched the whole scene, her eyes almost popping out.
That despicable Yan Mian was seducing Bo Jingyan!
Just wait, she would make her cry soon!
Ten minutes later, everyone gathered around the dining table.
Yan Feifei raised her glass to toast Yan Mian.
"Sister, welcome back to the capital. I'm glad to see you!" Her voice was sweet, and her eyes were full of friendliness towards Yan Mian.
Yan Mian remained calm, her smile forced.
"Well, you'll be even more 'glad' in the future."
There was an underlying message in her words, and Yan Feifei couldn't help but notice it.
She tightly gripped her tall glass, maintaining her composure as she changed the topic.
"Sister, I heard that four years ago, you went abroad with a stranger. Did he treat you well? Did he abandon you?"
With these words, Yan Feifei portrayed her as a shameless woman who eloped with a random man.
Bo Jingyan glanced at her for just a second.
Regardless of what Bo Jingyan thought, Yan Mian didn't want Chenchen to misunderstand her.
Just as she was about to retort, a sudden cough caught her attention.
She saw Chenchen's face turning red, his throat seemed to be blocked, and his breathing was labored.
In an instant, everyone was shocked.
"Chenchen?" Bo Jingyan immediately stood up and held him.
"Daddy, I..."
Chenchen tried to speak but choked, coughing and scratching his arm at the same time.
Yan Mian's heart skipped a beat, and she hurried over. She lifted his sleeve and saw clusters of red dots.
This was... an allergic reaction!
She turned to look at Butler Li and said in a deep voice, "Prepare ammonium nitrate and sulfur solution!"
It was a severe allergic reaction that had caused temporary asphyxiation in the child. Immediate medication for desensitization was necessary!
Yan Feifei suddenly exclaimed, "Sister, why did you put peanut butter in Chenchen's sandwich?"
Yan Mian's expression froze as she looked at the sandwich in her hand, with a layer of peanut butter spread on top of the red tomato sauce.
How... was this possible!
She didn't put it there!
"It wasn't me," she said coldly, her eyes sharp.
Bo Jingyan's face turned as dark as the night, and his gaze towards Yan Mian became noticeably hostile.
The chilling atmosphere became even more oppressive, and Yan Mian met Bo Jingyan's gaze head-on.
"Mr. Bo, take Chenchen upstairs first!"
They couldn't delay any longer; they had to save him immediately!
