The prerequisite for using this card was that Fang Yuan's favorability value toward him had to reach the standard.
Thinking this, Jiang Cheng had no choice but to abandon the plan he had just prepared and act as if he had simply come over for a visit.
The interior of Zhou Ying's home was tidy, bright, and clean.
The house was a two-bedroom apartment with very simple renovations; aside from the white walls and basic utilities, there were no other decorations.
Seeing Jiang Cheng looking around, Zhou Ying said, "There's nothing much to see in our living room. Neither my mom nor I are the type to buy things for decoration. It's mainly because the house is too small; too many decorations would make it feel cramped, so we keep everything simple."
Jiang Cheng nodded. "I think it's quite nice."
Just then, Fang Yuan walked out from inside.
Seeing Jiang Cheng greet her so naturally, Fang Yuan nodded and said, "Student Jiang, please make yourself at home."
Then she turned to Zhou Ying. "On the way there with your uncle, we got stuck in traffic and had a flat tire, so I came back early. We've rescheduled for tomorrow."
Listening to Fang Yuan's explanation, Zhou Ying shrugged helplessly at Jiang Cheng.
Fang Yuan asked with a normal expression, "Have you eaten?"
"The two of us just ate out."
Fang Yuan had no intention of disturbing their time alone, so she continued, "Then you two chat. I'm going to take a nap. I woke up early this morning and I'm a bit sleepy."
After saying that, Fang Yuan avoided Jiang Cheng's gaze and walked quickly into her room.
Ever since witnessing Jiang Cheng's attitude toward Zhou Ying firsthand, Fang Yuan had tacitly accepted their relationship.
To be honest, there weren't many boys with Jiang Cheng's qualities, and he was extremely good to Zhou Ying. If it were her, she probably wouldn't be able to resist either and would just want to lose herself in it completely.
Let alone her daughter, who had never been in a relationship before.
Besides, Zhou Ying had said last time that she only wanted happiness in the moment and didn't care about anything else.
After hearing those words, she had thought about it for a long time.
Later, she admitted that compared to herself, Zhou Ying was the smart one.
Wasn't it good to enjoy love and being pampered during one's best years?
Since giving birth to Zhou Ying at eighteen, how many years had she lived like a widow?
Had she ever been happy?
Fang Yuan felt her own experience was a cautionary tale, and she truly had no right to interfere with Zhou Ying's decision.
Originally, she wanted to endure for the sake of Zhou Ying's growth, but in the end, she still ended up as a single mother, even dragging Zhou Ying down and making her live a hard life for all these years.
She always felt that these eighteen years had been endured in vain.
Instead of this, it would be better to find someone to fall in love with early on and enjoy the true happiness that belongs to a woman.
So, regarding the two of them, Fang Yuan simply didn't want to care anymore and let them develop their relationship freely.
After Fang Yuan went inside, Zhou Ying immediately pulled Jiang Cheng's hand into her room. "Come quickly, take a look at my room."
As soon as they entered the room, Zhou Ying quickly locked the door and then gave Jiang Cheng a sly smile. "Hehe, now you can't escape."
Zhou Ying's room was very small, with only a bed, a small wardrobe, and a desk.
The doorway was only a meter away from the edge of the bed.
From this distance, Jiang Cheng could catch her just by leaning forward.
After pulling Zhou Ying into his arms, she restlessly started tickling Jiang Cheng.
This playful action made Jiang Cheng's heart itch with unbearable desire.
There was no time to tour Zhou Ying's room; with her delicate body in his arms, Jiang Cheng pushed her down onto the bed.
On the light pink soft bed, Zhou Ying looked at Jiang Cheng with a mix of shyness and anticipation.
Her innocent look with her lips slightly parted was something no one could refuse.
Without a moment's hesitation, Jiang Cheng impatiently kissed her.
While kissing her, he began to move his attack downward.
His hot hands began to move passionately over her curvaceous body.
Although Zhou Ying was shy, she didn't want to avoid him; when she was moved by Jiang Cheng's kisses, she just bit her lip tightly, not daring to let herself make a sound.
After all, the soundproofing in such an old building wasn't very good.
Any little noise would surely be heard clearly in the next room.
The blush rising on her face and her restrained emotions made her look a bit more seductive.
Even though Jiang Cheng had tasted many "delicious meals" before, at this moment, he couldn't help but lose himself to Zhou Ying.
He felt that he had some different feelings for Zhou Ying in his heart.
In this situation, not only was Zhou Ying's heart racing, but Jiang Cheng's heart also couldn't help but beat faster and faster.
If it weren't for Fang Yuan being next door, Jiang Cheng really would have wanted to hold Zhou Ying in his arms and dote on her properly.
Zhou Ying seemed to see through Jiang Cheng's restrained thoughts.
The more it was like this, the more she wanted to playfully tease Jiang Cheng.
Not only did she not let Jiang Cheng leave, she even lightly licked his earlobe.
Seeing this, Jiang Cheng launched a counterattack without hesitation, lingering on Zhou Ying's small and soft earlobe.
"Ah~"
Zhou Ying didn't expect that she would be so sensitive in this spot.
Not just her, but Jiang Cheng, who had absolute control over Zhou Ying, also felt her change.
The tables had turned; the more Zhou Ying dodged, the more Jiang Cheng attacked that spot.
His flexible skills soon made a novice like Zhou Ying surrender completely.
Jiang Cheng looked at Zhou Ying with some surprise. "Ying'er, you're...?"
You should know that at this time, neither of them had even taken off their clothes; everything was very pure.
Jiang Cheng had only been holding and kissing her, and it was already over??
Zhou Ying herself didn't know what was going on.
Losing her composure like this in front of Jiang Cheng, she only felt a bit embarrassed.
And she seemed to have let out a sound involuntarily just now.
She wondered if Fang Yuan next door would hear.
Zhou Ying immediately pushed Jiang Cheng away, opened the door, and headed toward the bathroom outside.
Fang Yuan in the next room indeed heard some noises.
Her head, covered by the quilt, involuntarily lifted and looked toward the door.
Although she had covered herself with the quilt to sleep as soon as she entered the room, she hadn't been able to fall asleep.
Listening to Zhou Ying and Jiang Cheng's playfulness, her heart felt both relieved and a bit envious.
