Urban Soldier Young Master

"No, no, that's too embarrassing."

As soon as Chu Ge said this, Qin Ruojing let out a sigh of relief, but immediately realized a problem. Her sister was already using this situation to test her relationship with Chu Ge, and now that Chu Ge had said this, wouldn't their relationship be even more suspicious?

Sure enough, as Chu Ge's words just fell, Qin Ruoying's expression changed a bit.

Just as Qin Ruojing was secretly getting a bit nervous, Chu Ge chuckled and said, "Xiaojing, since everyone is so happy, why don't you sing a song for everyone at the table?"

Qin Ruojing was speechless, but she knew that although Chu Ge's words seemed to be a tease, they were actually helping her out of the situation. She could only follow what Chu Ge said and stood up from the table.

Just as Qin Ruojing was about to sing, Chu Ge spoke again, beating her to the punch, "Xiaojing, what song do you plan to sing for us?"

Feeling that Chu Ge was up to no good again, Qin Ruojing wished she could kick him but instead swallowed her anger and said, "Lifetime Together."

Chu Ge smacked his lips and raised a finger, "No, no, no, that's a song for men to sing, you should sing one for women."

Qin Ruojing's eye twitched, "Then what do you suggest I sing?"

Chu Ge chuckled, "If you ask me... why don't you sing 'Conquer' for us?"

"Haha..."

While laughter filled the Qin Family home, Pan Dongren and Yao Hongmei were walking home, both with dark expressions, their faces looking as unpleasant as could be.

When they reached a particularly secluded spot, Yao Hongmei couldn't hold back any longer and huffed, "Old Pan, are you really going to make Qin Yan the detective team leader? What makes him so special? Do you know how embarrassed I was at the park today?"

"Alright, just shut up! I'd be lucky to keep my position as deputy chief now. I'm warning you, even if you don't suck up to the Qin Family, you absolutely can't cause them any more trouble."

Pan Dongren turned around, annoyed, for the first time in decades, he snapped coldly at Yao Hongmei, eyes wide, a stark contrast to the humility he showed in front of Qin Yan.

Yao Hongmei frowned, "Old Pan, you always said someone called you, can you tell me who it was?"

Pan Dongren sighed with a complicated expression, without speaking, he lifted his right index finger and pointed mysteriously upward to the dark sky.

The night grew deeper.

At the Qin Family, in Qin Ruojing's room.

"Chu Ge, what was that just now? You actually made me sing at the table? That's the first time I've sung at the dining table, couldn't you have found some other excuse to get out of it?"

After tidying up the dishes, Qin Ruojing returned to the room, looking at Chu Ge, who was leisurely playing a card game, and asked with a face full of annoyance.

Chu Ge didn't even turn his head, "It's nothing, although your singing is terrible and tortures me, I'm a magnanimous person, don't worry, I won't hold it against you."

Qin Ruojing was truly speechless, glaring at Chu Ge for a few seconds, seeing him still ignoring her, she felt even more annoyed and helpless.

"I'm talking seriously, can you be a bit serious?"

"I am being serious. By the way, we've been at your house for a few days now, when are we going back to Lidu?" Not wanting to dwell on the topic with Qin Ruojing, Chu Ge lazily changed the subject.

Upon hearing this, Qin Ruojing was slightly stunned, indeed, several days had passed, it was about time to go back.

Thinking of this, she felt a sense of inexplicable melancholy.

When she first brought Chu Ge back, all she wanted was to finish this act as quickly as possible, as long as she convinced her parents, they would go back immediately. But at this moment, she found she didn't want to leave so soon.

As for why, she vaguely had an answer in her heart, but she didn't want to admit it, nor dare to.

"Let's do it... the day after tomorrow."

Chu Ge spread his hands, a bit helplessly, "Why wait until the day after tomorrow? I think your parents don't have any objections to me, our performance was successful, we can wrap it up now, right?"

"What? Does pretending to be my boyfriend feel unfair to you? It's like you're saying my family did something horrible to you."

Seeing Chu Ge eager to leave, Qin Ruojing felt irritated, her tone no longer as calm as before.

Chu Ge forced a smile, "You're the boss, you decide. You capitalists just know how to exploit us hard-working masses."

This time, hearing Chu Ge's complaint, Qin Ruojing's mood brightened again, feeling a small sense of satisfaction, she thought to herself "I'll exploit you then, what can you do about it?", but maintained a composed demeanor.

"I said the day after tomorrow, naturally there's a reason. There's something I need you to do tomorrow, and only by entrusting it to you do I feel at ease."

"Don't rush to flatter me, first tell me what's up?"

"Accompany my sister to a party, see what kind of friends she has around her. If you think they're okay, then do nothing. But if you think they're a bad influence, find a way to keep my sister away from them."

Chu Ge smiled, "I have to say, you're quite the overbearing big sister, aren't you? Aren't you worried something might actually happen between me and your sister?"

Qin Ruojing wanted to say "You dare?", but remembering the unpleasantness from last time, she swallowed her words and continued, "Just tell me if you'll help or not?"

Faced with Qin Ruojing's somewhat hopeful gaze, Chu Ge couldn't resist the urge to tease her. He smiled slyly and said slowly, "About this favor, it's not that I can't help, but... this is outside our agreement, right? If I help you..."

Although Qin Ruojing had seen this trademark mischievous smile on Chu Ge's face many times before, she still found it infuriatingly sleazy and irritating.

But since Qin Ruojing really needed the favor, she could only suppress her slight annoyance and said, "Go ahead, what do you want? As long as it's not too much, I'll agree."

"You can really meet my demands?" Chu Ge's smile grew wider, and the look on his face made Qin Ruojing feel even more irritated and punchable.

"Are you going to say it or not?" Qin Ruojing glared at him.

"Shall I say it then?" Chu Ge pretended to be in deep thought, then scratched his head, glanced at Qin Ruojing with a smirk.

Qin Ruojing nodded and said flatly, "Go ahead."

Seeing Qin Ruojing suddenly become indifferent, Chu Ge found it a bit boring, yet it fueled his desire to tease her even more. Compared to the poised and graceful Qin Ruojing, he preferred seeing her flustered appearance.

With a wider grin and a more mischievous glance, Chu Ge pretended to hesitate, scratched his head again, and let out a sheepish chuckle.

"So, should I really say it? Oh my, this request is really quite embarrassing, haha..."

Qin Ruojing was about to go crazy and suddenly regretted asking Chu Ge for this favor, but since things had reached this point, she could only go through with it.

"Hurry! Up! And! Talk!"

Qin Ruojing squinted her eyes, speaking each word through gritted teeth, while being extremely curious about what kind of request Chu Ge was about to make.

Seeing Qin Ruojing's reaction, Chu Ge knew if he didn't say it now, he probably wouldn't have the chance, so he decided not to string her along any longer and spoke straightforwardly.

"Tonight, let me sleep in the bedroom, how about that?"

"What?" Qin Ruojing was stunned for a moment, thinking she misheard, she furrowed her eyebrows and asked uncertainly.

"I said, my request is to let me sleep in the bedroom tonight." Chu Ge calmly repeated.

"Pervert!"

Qin Ruojing's face flushed red in an instant. Without thinking, she grabbed a pillow and threw it at Chu Ge.

She had wanted to throw something at him for a long time, and this time she finally acted on it.

Unfortunately, the pillow didn't hit Chu Ge's head as she had hoped. He casually reached out and caught it effortlessly.

Not achieving her goal, Qin Ruojing grabbed another pillow and flung it again, but again unfortunately, Chu Ge had another free hand and caught the pillow in his hand once more.

Seeing Qin Ruojing's intense reaction, Chu Ge didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Unfortunately, to Qin Ruojing, his expression only made her angrier, as if he were saying, "Haha, what else can you throw at me now?"

Qin Ruojing was both embarrassed and annoyed, having thrown two pillows already, she randomly grabbed something off the bed. Without looking, she hurled it at Chu Ge.

As expected, Qin Ruojing missed again. This time, as she hurled her latest weapon, Chu Ge simply lifted a pillow slightly and used it as a shield, blocking what Qin Ruojing threw at him.

With a "thud," a delicate little handbag fell to the floor.

Chu Ge burst into laughter, "Nothing left to throw now, huh?"

As he spoke, he glanced down and saw it was a light purple little handbag. The zipper had come undone, and many bright red bills spilled out, scattered everywhere.

"Wow? Are you rewarding me with a bonus for a job well done?"

"Get lost! What bonus?" Qin Ruojing glared at Chu Ge angrily, "Why are you standing there? Help me pick it up!"

"You want me to help pick it up, and I'll help you? Wouldn't I seem totally spineless? According to your logic, even if you stab me, I'd have to thank you?"

Chu Ge sneered and looked at Qin Ruojing with amusement.

Qin Ruojing glared back at Chu Ge, fuming, "If it weren't for your nonsense, would I have thrown it at you?"

Chu Ge shrugged, touched his nose, and shook his head in exaggerated confusion, "How am I being absurd? Clearly, you're the one acting crazy, okay?"
