{Chapter: 295 Feeding!}

After Lin Yuan opened the door, Mei Yuxian offered a warm smile tinged with a hint of guilt. "Sorry for being a little late, Xiao Yuan. I got held up by some last-minute tasks at the company."

Though they had agreed on a set time to meet, Lin Yuan had arrived a bit earlier than expected. Still, Mei Yuxian had only been delayed because of pressing work matters that needed her attention as the chairwoman of her company.

Lin Yuan didn't mind at all. With a gentle smile and calm voice, he replied, "It's really no problem, Sister Yuxian. I didn't wait long."

As she stepped inside and saw Gui Qingtong still immersed in the VR game, Mei Yuxian couldn't help but feel slightly tense. This was supposed to be Gui Qingtong's study time, and she was known for being a stickler when it came to her daughter's schedule.

She leaned down to slip on her indoor slippers, intending to quietly enter the room without disturbing the moment. But as she bent over, Lin Yuan's large, mischievous hand landed softly on the curve of her OL dress-clad figure.

Mei Yuxian, dressed professionally in a tailored office lady (OL) outfit—a crisp blouse and form-fitting skirt—radiated the allure of a confident career woman. Her elegant appearance was elevated further by her choice of sheer black stockings and subtle yet refined makeup. Her long legs and dignified aura left an impression of dominance, grace, and strength. She was, after all, the head of a very powerful corporation.

As she bent down, the outline of her silhouette was both elegant and dangerously tempting. Lin Yuan, unable to resist, acted on impulse and gave a gentle squeeze, his fingers brushing against the soft fabric.

Feeling the bold touch, Mei Yuxian's body tensed. She straightened slightly and turned her head, casting a sharp glare at Lin Yuan, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes narrowing with fiery displeasure. Her naturally seductive eyes now shimmered with warning.

"Not now," her gaze seemed to say. Just a few meters away, her daughter was still playing VR games, completely unaware of what had just occurred behind her virtual goggles.

Lin Yuan met her angry gaze with a teasing smirk. "You're late," he whispered mischievously. "That was your punishment. How could I resist? It was just too soft to ignore."

Trying to maintain her composure, Mei Yuxian finished slipping on her slippers, then stood up gracefully and, without hesitation, slapped his hand away. Her expression was equal parts annoyed and flustered. She retaliated by pinching Lin Yuan's arm—hard.

"Don't push your luck," she muttered under her breath.

Despite her anger, her cheeks turned slightly pink. Whether it was from embarrassment or the unexpected intimacy, even Mei Yuxian herself didn't know.

Seeing her flushed face, Lin Yuan chuckled softly and finally backed off. He knew better than to push further when she was truly annoyed—especially when her daughter was right there in the room. He had no intention of turning playful teasing into a strangling session courtesy of a very capable woman.

With the brief moment of tension dissolved, Lin Yuan returned to the VR console and continued playing the game with Gui Qingtong, who was still completely absorbed in her virtual world. Because she hadn't taken off her VR headset, she was blissfully unaware of the adult interaction that had just taken place.

Gui Qingtong, however, was beginning to feel a bit uneasy. She knew this wasn't her usual free time, and her mother was usually very strict about sticking to her schedule.

Worried she might get scolded, Gui Qingtong hesitated before speaking up in a gentle voice. "Mom… I was just playing a little with Brother Lin Yuan. Is it okay if I keep playing for a bit?"

Hearing her daughter's sweet and cautious tone, Mei Yuxian softened. She walked over and affectionately stroked Gui Qingtong's silky hair.

"Of course, sweetheart. You've been working so hard lately. It's okay to take a break and have some fun once in a while," she said with a rare, tender smile.

As she lovingly caressed her daughter's head, she once again felt Lin Yuan's hand sneak around and give her dump truck of an ass a playful squeeze. Her face immediately flushed crimson, and her expression twisted into a mix of fury and helplessness.

This man was truly shameless.

Thankfully, Gui Qingtong was still immersed in the VR game and had no idea what was happening right beside her. Mei Yuxian let out a soft sigh, choosing not to react this time. She didn't want to ruin her daughter's moment of happiness.

Overjoyed by her mother's rare leniency, Gui Qingtong smiled brightly and chirped, "Yay! Oh, and Mom! Brother Lin Yuan gave me some medicine and acupuncture earlier today. My throat feels so much better now! It's not sore anymore, and my voice isn't hoarse at all!"

"Is that so? Th-That's great…" Mei Yuxian replied, her voice trailing as Lin Yuan continued his mischief beside her. The sensation caused her to stammer slightly, but she quickly composed herself.

Gui Qingtong, completely unaware, continued cheerfully, "Brother Lin Yuan is really amazing, right? He knows medicine, acupuncture, massage—he's like a miracle doctor! If Brother Lin Yuan lived with us, we'd never have to worry about getting sick ever again."

She said it casually, but there was a deeper implication in her words.

It wasn't just admiration.

She was subtly hinting at a future where Lin Yuan would be a part of their family—not just as a guest, but as someone more permanent. More intimate.

A potential partner.

She was gauging her mother's reaction.

Mei Yuxian paused, hearing the innocence in her daughter's words and the quiet wish embedded within them. Her expression became unreadable for a moment as she glanced at Lin Yuan, who just gave her a knowing smile.

She wasn't ready to answer just yet.

Mei Yuxian sighed softly in her heart as she looked at her daughter.

'This silly little girl,' she thought with a mix of affection and exasperation.

She didn't deny Lin Yuan's skill—his medical abilities were remarkable, and it was clear he had an innate talent in healing and acupuncture. Even the best doctors Mei Yuxian had encountered during her business trips couldn't match the precision of Lin Yuan's techniques.

But letting him live with them?

That would be the equivalent of inviting a hungry wolf into a henhouse.

Even as she mulled this over, Mei Yuxian could feel Lin Yuan's teasing hand continuing its bold actions behind Gui Qingtong's oblivious back. Her breath hitched slightly, but she maintained her composure.

"Ahem… I'm going to wash the fruits I bought earlier," she said, her tone light and casual. "You two keep playing. I'll call you when they're ready."

She quickly picked up the shopping bag filled with fresh fruit and walked toward the kitchen, her steps unusually swift—as if she were making an escape. In truth, she was. If she didn't flee now, she feared Lin Yuan might push things further right there in front of her daughter.

Behind her, Lin Yuan watched the elegant sexy figure vanish into the kitchen and let out a soft chuckle. He could almost picture the little storm of emotions swirling in Mei Yuxian's heart.

Still grinning, he turned his attention back to Gui Qingtong and resumed playing the VR game with her. With her mother's approval to take the day off from studying, Gui Qingtong's mood had brightened significantly. Her laughter echoed lightly in the room as she played with uninhibited joy.

Not long after, Mei Yuxian returned with a tray of meticulously arranged fruits. The aroma of freshly washed strawberries, mango slices, and grapes filled the air.

"Fruits are ready," she called gently.

Both Lin Yuan and Gui Qingtong, having grown tired from the game, eagerly made their way to the living room and plopped down onto the soft sofa.

The three of them sat together in a rare moment of casual peace. They began with small talk—school anecdotes, favorite foods, lighthearted jokes. But eventually, the conversation gradually shifted to more serious topics as Mei Yuxian brought up recent company developments and ongoing business matters.

Gui Qingtong, though sitting beside them, found herself slowly retreating into silence. Business talk didn't interest her. She was still too young to understand stock movements or the strategies of rival conglomerates. While she tried to follow the conversation at first, her eyes began to glaze over, and her thoughts drifted elsewhere.

Meanwhile, Lin Yuan leaned back slightly and asked, "By the way, Sister Yuxian, like I mentioned before… Have you compiled the information about the transactions and dealings between the Chen family and the Mei Group over the past few years?"

"Yes, I've already organized everything," Mei Yuxian replied with a professional nod. "I left the documents in my study upstairs. I'll go get them now."

She rose to her feet and gracefully made her way to the staircase, disappearing onto the second floor.

The moment her figure vanished, Gui Qingtong exhaled a small breath of relief, her body noticeably relaxing.

Now was her chance.

Finally, she could talk to Lin Yuan alone without being overshadowed by her mother's presence. During their earlier conversation, she hadn't been able to get a single word in. Every time she wanted to speak up, she didn't know what to say. The adult conversation made her feel awkward and left out.

But now, with her mother gone, she perked up and took the initiative.

She picked up the fruit tray and moved closer, sitting right in front of Lin Yuan with a radiant smile. One by one, she began feeding him the fruits with her slender fingers, giggling every time he took a bite.

Lin Yuan accepted the gesture at first with a smile. The fruits were sweet and refreshing, and Gui Qingtong's enthusiasm was infectious. It was hard to resist her charm when she looked so genuinely happy.

But she didn't stop.

She continued feeding him—grape after grape, mango slice after mango slice—until Lin Yuan began to feel full.

Eventually, Gui Qingtong picked up the last strawberry on the plate. She held it gently between her fingers, lifting it toward Lin Yuan's mouth.

"Come on, Brother Lin Yuan," she said sweetly, "Just one more. Let's finish it."

Lin Yuan shook his head with a helpless smile. "I've already eaten too much. I'm practically full to the brim with fruits."

"But it's the last one! You can't leave it behind!" she insisted, her eyes sparkling with playful stubbornness. "You can't leave the plate incomplete—it'll bother me."

Clearly, her obsessive-compulsive habits had kicked in.

Lin Yuan chuckled and leaned back a little, but Gui Qingtong was relentless. She leaned forward, eyes gleaming with mischief, and gently pressed the strawberry against his lips, trying to coax him into eating it.

At that exact moment, footsteps sounded from the staircase.

Mei Yuxian had returned from the study, holding a thick folder of documents in her hands.

She stopped dead in her tracks.

There, in front of her, was the scene of her daughter feeding Lin Yuan the last strawberry, looking like a couple in the middle of a romantic date.

A complicated emotion flickered across Mei Yuxian's face—shock, annoyance, and a trace of… something else.

Gui Qingtong hadn't noticed her mother yet, her entire focus still on Lin Yuan.

But Lin Yuan, upon seeing Mei Yuxian standing motionless at the foot of the stairs, gave a sheepish smile.

Things were about to get interesting again.
