However, the time left for Yan Sui to react in the elevator was really too short. With a ‘ding’, the elevator reached the ground floor. Meng Ting straightened up and stepped out of Yan Sui’s embrace. He didn’t think he had said anything particularly moving. He held Yan Sui’s hand and shook it gently, “We’re here.”
Yan Sui turned his head and met Meng Ting’s bright and clear gaze, once again experienced again what it was like to have his heart moved.
Mm, he’s completely smitten with Meng Ting.
Yan Sui, carrying some inexplicable moved feelings, was pulled along by Meng Ting for a while before he finally pulled the person back and found the right path.
This resort is in peak season from April to November, with many guests coming to play or relax here. You can even see some college students having fun; they start school late, so they can still travel around and enjoy themselves before classes begin.
Yan Sui and Meng Ting weren’t wearing formal attire, and walking through the crowd of people playfully fighting didn’t make them stand out much, but they were definitely a sight to behold. After all, Meng Ting was good-looking, and Yan Sui had a great figure as well. However, it was clear that the two of them were already in an extremely close relationship. They couldn’t control what they were thinking in they heart, but no one dared to come over and strike up a conversation.

“Bai Yang, what are you looking at?” Among the rowdy students, a man nudged the arm of the person next to him, but it still didn’t draw his attention back. It wasn’t until Meng Ting and Yan Sui’s figure completely disappeared that he turned around, raised an eyebrow, and chuckled softly.
“I see my destiny again…”
“What kind of destiny?” The man who was talking to him was called Liu Jing. He pondered for a moment and then asked, “The destiny that you fell in love with at first sight in F country?”
This time, Bai Yang did not ignore his question or deny it. He nodded slightly and said, “It’s him.”
Liu Jing’s lips moved, but he didn’t say anything more. Bai Yang’s ‘destiny’ had clearly been snatched away by someone else. Bai Yang didn’t seem particularly concerned about it. He didn’t think it would be a good idea to advise him to pursue it, and comforting him seemed unnecessary. For a moment, there was naturally nothing more to say.

On the other side, Yan Sui and Meng Ting watched the constantly screaming amusement rides with no interest. The two of them walked all the way to the more secluded pool, where, as they had planned upstairs, Yan Sui taught Meng Ting how to swim.
Originally, Meng Ting was still quite concerned about the gazes directed at Yan Sui, but after he started learning to swim, he automatically filtered out everything around him, his expression extremely serious.
The water, which is 1.5 meters high, only reaches below Yan Sui’s chest and around Meng Ting’s shoulders, but the swaying sensation in the water is still quite uncomfortable.
Yan Sui grabbed Meng Ting’s arm, first explaining some simple techniques, and then guiding him to gradually adapt and learn.
One taught earnestly, the other learned earnestly, somewhat out of tune with the various frolics and fun around them, but Yan Sui and Meng Ting felt nothing of the sort. Of course, they didn’t expect to learn how to swim today either.
Meng Ting was not as bad as he thought he was. He had learned some theoretical knowledge at home for a few days before, but he was a little afraid of water. In the end, he only learned fencing. With Yan Sui’s help, he gradually overcame his fear of water. Now, he could hold his breath and glide a short distance.
“Very good,” Yan Sui wrapped his arms around Meng Ting’s waist, bringing him back to the edge of the pool. He placed a towel over Meng Ting’s head, climbed up himself, and then pulled him up. “We’ll stop here for today. I’ll find time to teach you more in the evenings.”
“Okay,” Meng Ting replied, kicking his feet in the water a couple more times before coming up. A slight smile appeared on his face; it had taken almost an hour for him to finally start enjoying playing in the water.
Yan Sui ruffled Meng Ting’s hair, wrapped him tightly in a towel, took his hand to find their shoes, and then went back to the room to take a shower and prepare for dinner.
The view from the balcony of the suite was quite nice, so they didn’t go downstairs again, but directly ordered food to be delivered to their room. After they both finished eating, they stood on the balcony for a while, then returned to the room and turned on the TV. Meng Ting watched TV while Yan Sui, after taking two phone calls, came back to watch with him.
Actually, it’s just a boring, melodramatic TV drama that airs at eight o’clock. However, with a different mindset, the two of them actually watched it with great interest. Meng Ting had both feet resting on Yan Sui’s legs, leaning to the side, making himself as comfortable as possible, occasionally being fed fruit right to his mouth.
Such days were something Meng Ting had never imagined, and neither had Yan Sui, but right now, this was their life—a two-person world that seemed endlessly enjoyable. After nine o’clock, Meng Ting gradually became sleepy.
He changed his position, resting his head on Yan Sui’s lap, then turned around and wrapped his arms around Yan Sui’s waist. He closed his eyes and murmured, “You’re going to spoil me like this.”
His self-care abilities were never very good, and with Yan Sui helping him with everything, he would only be spoiled and become worse. However, even though he said this, he found it hard to refuse; he had finally met someone who treated him so well.
Yan Sui gently rubbed Meng Ting’s hair, a faint smile at the corner of his mouth becoming more evident, “I won’t spoil you. Treating you well… is only right.”
Yan Sui was halfway through speaking when he remembered that he had said this before. He thought about it and smiled, confirming it to Meng Ting once more, “It’s only right, and it’s what I want.” He was willingly treating Meng Ting well.
Meng Ting gently hummed, his eyes completely closed, but the corners of his mouth curled into a smile. Before long, he fell asleep.
As for how Yan Sui carried him back to bed and when he fell asleep, he had no idea. When he woke up, it was already past six o’clock. He leaned against Yan Sui’s side, wanting to wait for him to wake up.
But gradually, Meng Ting noticed something was wrong; Yan Sui’s body temperature was a bit high. He extended his hand and felt Yan Sui’s forehead for a while before he was truly certain.
“Yan Sui, are you feeling unwell? You have a fever.”
Meng Ting got up and, somewhat anxiously, touched Yan Sui’s forehead and cheek. Yan Sui seemed still asleep and couldn’t wake up. Meng Ting didn’t dare to delay any longer. He got up, put on his clothes, and walked to the sofa outside the room where the front desk phone was located.
After he finished the call, he thought for a moment, then ran to the bathroom. After a while, he came out with a towel and started wiping Yan Sui’s face. After wiping for a while, he suddenly remembered something, stood up to go get it, but was stopped by Yan Sui who grabbed his hand.
“I’m fine, don’t worry.”
Yan Sui said as he slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was Meng Ting’s anxious and serious expression. He pulled the person a bit closer, “Really, it’s nothing.”
“You have a fever,” Meng Ting emphasized the fact, pressing Yan Sui’s shoulder back onto the bed. “I’ll go get you some water.”
He got up, took two steps, then turned back with a frown and said, “You lie down, and do as you’re told.”
“Okay,” Yan Sui replied, revealing a slight bitter smile. He slowly raised his hand to touch his forehead; indeed, he was a bit feverish. He had been worried last night before sleeping that Meng Ting might catch a cold, but it turned out he was the one who got sick.
Meng Ting returned with the water, and Yan Sui obediently lay down as he had instructed. Only then did Meng Ting let out a sigh of relief.
He helped Yan Sui sit up and somewhat clumsily fed him water. Yan Sui drank more than half a cup, and when Meng Ting saw that he had had enough, he set the cup aside. Then he frowned again as he looked at Yan Sui.
“We shouldn’t have gone to play in the water yesterday,” they were already soaked from the rain, and then they went to soak in the pool. They might have caught a cold at any time.
Yan Sui nodded, “It’s my fault…”
“No, it’s me,” Meng Ting moved a bit closer, gently holding Yan Sui as if he would feel uncomfortable if he held him a little harder. He whispered, “I know, you got sick because you were taking care of me.”
When it rained, Yan Sui protected him. Once they arrived at the resort, Yan Sui also took care of everything for him. Even going to the swimming pool was just to teach him how to swim. “It’s my fault, always making you take care of me.”
Yan Sui’s head indeed felt a bit heavy, and he couldn’t think of anything to comfort Meng Ting right away, but his hand had already wrapped around him. He gently patted Meng Ting’s back, and for a moment, it was unclear who was comforting whom.
Meng Ting’s feelings of frustration came quickly and left just as fast. He straightened up from Yan Sui’s embrace, his expression returning to normal, and then he continued to busy himself around Yan Sui, changing towels, calling to urge the doctor, pouring water, and ordering food.
Although Yan Sui still had to remind him a couple of times, Meng Ting was truly doing his best to take care of the person. With Yan Sui’s special cooperation, Meng Ting’s expression gradually became less stern.
There was already a doctor on duty at the resort, and he arrived half an hour later.
Meng Ting led Yan Sui out, and the doctor examined Yan Sui in the living room of the suite. After a series of examinations, it was confirmed that it was just a mild cold, and the fever was not severe. After leaving some medicine, the doctor left.
Yan Sui first ate the congee that Meng Ting had ordered for him, and then took his medicine. He went back to his room to lie down, with Meng Ting accompanying him by his side.
Yan Sui probably slept for another two hours. When they measured his temperature again, it had returned to normal. Meng Ting’s seriousness finally eased a bit, but he was still extremely attentive to Yan Sui. Yan Sui really couldn’t refuse him.
***
Around nine-thirty in the morning, they checked out, left the resort, and went to Lijia Village to wait for Zhao Bing and Yan Mingya.
Meanwhile, the directors and managers who specifically rushed over to apologize to Yan Sui just happened to miss him. They continued their meeting to discuss the matter, but no matter how this matter was resolved in the end, Dong Fei could no longer stay at this resort.
Yan Sui and Meng Ting left the resort and walked to Lijia Village. Before they even reached the flower fields, Li Lan came running from a distance.
“You really came, huh? I thought you wouldn’t,” Li Lan was young after all, so he said whatever was on his mind. However, he had a big smile on his face, clearly surprised and delighted by Yan Sui and Meng Ting’s arrival.
He led the way while talking to them, “My house is small… but very clean. My grandpa and I both love cleanliness.” This could barely be considered the only advantage his house had.
The interaction pattern between Yan Sui and Meng Ting has changed a bit, but no matter how precocious Li Lan is, he hasn’t reached such a subtle level. He still cheerfully leads the way, “I didn’t skip class today; I asked my grandpa to ask for leave for me.”
Meng Ting, upon hearing the words, glanced at Li Lan, and then his gaze returned to Yan Sui. He scrutinized the person carefully, as if Yan Sui would also get tired from walking for more than half an hour.
Yan Sui ruffled Meng Ting’s hair and whispered in his ear, “I’m fine, really.”
“Mm,” Meng Ting replied, but held Yan Sui’s hand even tighter.
