Chapter 224: Yi lan's parent surprise visit
"Ok, I won't say anything, but you must first spend the night with me a day before our wedding. You must not spend the night at Xiao Bai's place like the two of you had planned it. Deal or no deal," Yi Lan asked as he stares at her displeased face. For some unknown reason, Lie Ruge had been sleeping over at Xiao Bai's apartment, leaving him all alone in the Mansion. She had always used the upcoming wedding as an excuse, so he had to resort to this petty trick to keep her beside him a day before their wedding day. The rest of the guys just watched the couple who had been constantly whispering into each other's ears with interest. They were curious to know what they were secretly discussing, but none of them had the guts to interrupt the scary couple.
"We have already talked about this and you even agreed to me sleeping over at her place so why are you changing your mind at the last minute?" Lie Ruge asked.
"We have got to make little buns as soon as possible. We have to work very hard like we always did at the Mansion to make our big dream into a reality. Is it a deal or not? As you can see everyone is waiting for me to continue what I was saying," Yi Lan said calmly. He was a little scared that she would reject his request but he did not let it show.
"Ok, deal," Lie Ruge replied immediately. Yi Lan turned around to face everyone with a smile on his face after Lie Ruge agreed to his condition.
"Brother Yi, aren't you going to continue with what you were discussing earlier?" Jiang Xue asked eagerly when Yi Lan did not speak up after he finished talking to Lie Ruge.
"Will you be able to handle the consequences of knowing her secrets?" Yi Lan asked expressionlessly as he threw her a cold stare.
"We were just curious third bro, you don't have to resort to threats. We will continue with the game we were playing. Honey why don't you spin the bottle," Tan Fan said mellowly as he quickly signalled Jiang Xue to spin the bottle.
"Wow! Now it is our naughty couple's turn! My question is, what is the most embarrassing moment you guys have ever experienced as a couple?" Jiang Xue smiled naughtily as she threw the question at Yun Yi and Xiao Bai since the bottle stopped in Xiao Bai's front.
"Jiang Xue, what kind of question is this? I bet you are asking us this to get even with us. I don't like your question one bit," Xiao Bai said, her voice showing that she was a little pissed off.
"Are you going to answer or are the both of you willing to drink the wine? It's just a simple question, so why don't you just give us the answer that we want," Jiang Xue, who does not like losing when arguing, spoke up instantly. "This is why I don't like her one bit, she is so darn rude," Xiao Bai uttered inaudibly. Xiao Bai signalled Yun Yi and they both spoke up at the same time.
"When we were caught by Yun Yi's assistant having sex in the office," they both answered at the same time.
"That was indeed really embarrassing," Jiang Xue shook her head gently as she said these mean words.
"My question is two in one and I hope the two of you will answer it truthfully. When are you guys getting married and after you get married will Yun Yi still permit you to work as a model?" Tan Fan asked firmly. Everyone was surprised by his question. The Tan Fan they knew was not the type of guy to lose the opportunity of making jest of them by asking them a serious question, he was the type of guy to ask the naughtiest question ever.
"In six months and of course Yun Yi is ok with me working as a model after I am married, but I don't think I will be able to continue my career as a model after I get pregnant," Yun Yi and Xiao Bai answered the first part of the sentence together but she chose to answer the second part alone since the question was directly thrown at her. They kept on playing the spin the bottle game for an hour before they moved onto the next exciting game.
"Ok, how well can you dance? Let's see which couple can dance the longest. Let's see how confident you and your partner are of your dance moves. The first couple on our list is Tan Fan and Jiang Xue. Let's clap our hands for these two lovely couples," Yun Yi, who was the coordinator for this game, screamed excitedly. Jiang Xue's smile was bright as she walked confidently to the stage while holding Tan Fan's right hand. Since she hasn't seen any of the ladies dance before, she was so confident that she and Tan Fan would win that game. She was so unhappy when Yi Lan and Lie Ruge won the secret game while she and Tan Fan lost. She chose a song that she was familiar with. She and Tan Fan did justice to the song as they danced as a team. The way she moved her body in rhythm to the song showed that she was a very good dancer. The next couple to dance was Yun Yi and Xiao Bai. Jiang Xue was surprised when she saw that Yun Yi and Xiao Bai were good dancers too, but she was so sure that she had a chance to win since she assumed that Lie Ruge could not dance. She later realized that her assumptions were wrong when Lie Ruge danced like a professional dancer that she was. Even though she conceded defeat when Yi Lan and Lie Ruge danced, she was shocked that these two dreaded figures could do things as normal people did. It was in this dance party that she agreed with the others that this couple was really a match made in heaven. They were a perfect pair that could do the extraordinary things when they were together. Yi Lan later accompanied Lie Ruge to their room after he saw how sleepy she was. Yi Lan was so considerate when he saw how tired she was, he allowed her to sleep peacefully without disturbing her for his daily meal. Everyone was woken up the next morning by the bright rays of the sun. They did their normal routine and had their breakfast. They later postponed their trip, which was supposed to be in the morning to afternoon, due to the fact none of them were eager to leave such a peaceful and carefree life to a tiring and boring one. But they eventually had to leave in the late afternoon because they had a life waiting for them back in Major City.
Lie Ruge and Yi Lan were greeted by the happy smiles of their parents who had been patiently waiting for their arrival.
"Mum, dad why are you guys here?" Yi Lan asked with surprise written all over his face. He wouldn't have been that surprised had he seen their car outside.
"Your dad and I wanted to surprise both of you. We have missed our beloved daughter very much since you don't always allow her to visit us often we decided to personally visit her. Ge'er, come and sit down beside mother, I have missed you so much," Madam Yi said as she tapped the space beside her. Lie Ruge obediently did as she was instructed. She knew that her mother and father-in-law were just using the excuse of missing her to check up on her and the baby.
"Mum, if you and dad are here to nag us about the grandchild issue, I suggest that you don't bring it up. Ge'er's body has been acting quite weird these days, so she needs some rest. I will have to take her to the hospital for a check-up later on so don't nag us today because as you can see today is not a good day," Yi Lan said with a look of concern visible on his face.
"Ge'er baby, what is wrong? I hope my son did not tire you out the whole night. Tell me so that mum and dad will immediately avenge you," Madam Yi said caringly as she patted Lie Ruge's back affectionately.
"Mum, I have been trying so hard to conceal the truth from him, but as you know, I normally feel sleepy these past few days and as you know, your son is very quick to grasp things, so he assumed that I am sick, not knowing that I am carrying his child. I am so happy that he is naive when it comes to symptoms of pregnancy or else I would have been discovered a long time ago. So mum please help me out of this dilemma," Lie Ruge whispered into her mother-in-law's ear, smiling so that Yi Lan would not suspect what they were talking about.
"Yi Lan there is no need to panic over such a trivial issue. That is just the normal way ladies' bodies act up sometimes. I am very sure that nothing is wrong with my dearest daughter. She is perfectly ok. She just needs to rest for a few days then she will eventually regain her normal self. Yi Lan, I hope you heed my advice right. I have been warning you not torture my daughter in bed like you normally do. I hope you haven't unleashed the beast on her these days?" Madam Yi asked as she shot Yi Lan a suspicious glare.
"Mum, Ge'er is stronger than you think. She can last for at least ten hours in bed, so you don't have to mind our business. Let us enjoy ourselves before we get married in three days. I'm sure you and dad will understand how we feel, since you guys went through the same emotion when you were younger," Yi Lan replied shamelessly.
"I won't let you off the hook if you dare hurt my grand....," Madam Yi nudged her husband by his side before he could complete his sentence. Beads of sweat began to form on Lie Ruge's forehead as she held unto her mother-in-law's hand tightly.
"Lanlan, you don't have to worry about giving us little buns, just take it easy with Ge'er alright. I know that both of you are at your primes right now, but there might be consequences later on if you keep eating my daughter up. I will not let it slide if you dare hurt my daughter, okay? Ge'er needs the maximum amount of rest so just exercise a little bit of self-control over your little brother down there. Hmmm," Madam Yi said seriously.
"Mum you are scaring me with your words. Why the change of mind? I thought you and dad said that you needed little buns as soon as possible," Yi Lan asked doubtfully.
"I will go easy on you because you have made me and your dad very happy by giving us what we have always wanted," Madam Yi said smiling happily.
"And what is that thing I have given you and dad?" Yi Lan asked curiously.
"You don't have to know," Elder Yi replied smiling too.
