I alone am the Honoured One!

Zhao Tian stood up and walked towards the kitchen and the women in the kitchen laughed at him.

"How was the coffee, Tian\'er?" Zhao Ying said with a mocking giggle.

Smiling, Zhao Tian\'s gaze wandered around the women in the kitchen "Whose idea was this?"

Each of them tried to hold back their laughter while pretending not to know who was responsible and glanced at one another, trying to push the blame somewhere else without directly pointing fingers.

Zhao Tian shook his head, his gaze finally landing on Zhao Suyin, who was standing near the back, wearing her usual casual clothes, trying her best to appear uninvolved.

She caught his eye and chuckled, shaking her head as if to preemptively defend herself "Tian\'er, that is not me," she said with a chuckle, raising her hands in mock surrender.

"I\'m not the one who proposed the idea. You know about me." Her voice was light, and teasing, but there was a genuine innocence in her tone.

With a nod, Zhao Tian reached out, gently hugging her delicate waist "I know, my Mom wouldn\'t do that..."

He raised his hand caressing her silver hair behind her ear affectionately "But I am sure... my dear Mom will tell me who came up with the idea."

Zhao Suyin\'s heart wavered at his words, and she chuckled softly, her resolve faltering under his affectionate gaze.

He leaned closer, his lips brushing against her ear as he whispered, "Mom… tell me who it is."

Unable to resist, Zhao Suyin hesitated only a moment before her eyes shifted toward the woman who had been trying the hardest to suppress her laughter.

And following her gaze, Zhao Tian glanced at the woman.

Yu Hua stood there, biting her lip to keep from bursting out in giggles, but it was obvious she was the culprit.

"Ah, I see," he murmured, turning his attention toward Yu Hua, who was already stepping backward, her hands raised in mock surrender as her laughter bubbled up.

"Tian… hear me out…"

"Oh, I\'m listening,"

As he stepped close to her, she hurriedly ran out of the kitchen and Zhao Tian swiftly followed her "Hua\'er."

Seeing the banter, others laughed heartedly.

"Tian, stop! It was just a joke!" Yu Hua\'s voice rang out as she glanced back, her smile widening as she tried to dodge him.

Zhao Tian, with an amused smile, followed her as she ran away from him.

"You can\'t outrun me, Hua\'er."

With a chuckle, she teased back. "Oh, can\'t I? I think I\'m doing just fine!"

Giggling, she dashed to the side, moving around the table, trying to keep distance between them.

But Zhao Tian was patient because he knew he\'d catch her sooner or later.

She darted behind the couch, making a sharp turn, but Zhao Tian quickly matched her movements, cutting her off.

"Too slow!" Zhao Tian laughed lightly as he leaped over the arm of the couch, closing the gap between them.

Yu Hua squealed, dodging him at the last second, narrowly avoiding his outstretched hand.

She circled around the couch again, but by now, Zhao Tian was fully committed to the chase, and moved quickly as he closed in on her.

The women in the kitchen leaned against the counters, watching with wide smiles. Ning Zhilian, Zhao Ying, and the others exchanged glances, chuckling softly.

"Isn\'t he going a bit too easy on her?"

"He\'s just playing with her,"

"Hahaha... Tian." Yu Hua was now giggling uncontrollably, her breath coming in short bursts as she rounded the other side of the couch, however, this time, Zhao Tian anticipated her move.

With a quick sidestep, he cut off her path, forcing her to retreat.

"No more running." Zhao Tian said with a playful smile.

He lunged toward her just as she tried to make another dash, and this time, he caught her wrist.

"Haa..." Yu Hua gasped, her laughter filling the room as he gently pulled her back toward him.

"Tian! No, wait!" she protested between giggles, her free hand playfully pushing at his chest as he wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her closer.

But as they struggled, Yu Hua\'s foot caught the edge of the carpet, and with a surprised grunt, they both stumbled forward.

"Ah!"

*thud* As they fell, tumbling onto the soft living room rug, Yu Hua landed on top of him.

There was a moment of stunned silence before they both burst into laughter, their faces close together, their breath mingling.

"HAHAHHA!" Yu Hua\'s cheeks flushed as she looked down at Zhao Tian, her hand resting on his chest.

"You caught me…" she whispered, still breathless from the chase.

Before she could react, Zhao Tian leaned up, his lips brushing against hers softly at first, then deepening the kiss.

Yu Hua\'s eyes widened in surprise, but she melted into the kiss, her fingers curling into his shirt.

As Zhao Tian\'s tongue slid into her mouth, she tasted the lingering bitterness of the coffee he had just drunk.

Her nose scrunched up slightly at the taste, and she tried to pull back with a laugh.

"Ugh! That coffee… it\'s horrible!" she giggled against his lips.

However, he didn\'t let her go and kissed her again, more passionately this time, letting her taste every drop of the coffee\'s bitterness.

His hand cupped the back of her neck, keeping her in place as their tongues danced together.

Yu Hua\'s playful resistance faded, her fingers relaxing against his chest as she gave in to the moment.

"Still bitter?" Zhao Tian teased softly when they finally pulled away, his lips brushing against her jaw as he spoke.

Yu Hua laughed, her face flushed with heat as she playfully smacked his chest. "Yeah..."

Meanwhile, Zahra Ashante stood there dumbfounded "What the hell happened just now?"

...

*freeeennn* " Out on the ocean, Zhao Ying and Ning Yueli were riding a sleek, white jet ski, its engine roaring as it cut through the waves with exhilarating speed.

The water sprayed into the air behind them, sparkling in the sunlight like diamonds.

Zhao Ying was gripping the handlebars tightly, a wild grin on her face as she leaned into the turns, steering the jet ski.

"WALLAHIIIII!!!" Ning Yueli screamed, her voice filled with excitement.

"LET\'S GOOOO, SISTER YING! WAAAAAAAA!"

Ning Yueli, sitting behind Zhao Ying, had one arm wrapped around her waist while holding a Kanon camera with the other hand, recording every thrilling moment.

Zhao Tian stood on the shore, a chuckle escaping his lips as he watched the two women playfully screeching across the water.

At this time, wearing a bikini, Fei Lingxi walked toward him "Master, here... watermelon juice."

Zhao Tian glanced at her and took the glass of watermelon juice to drink.

He smiled and brought the glass to his lips, taking a long, refreshing sip as the sweet, fruity flavor of the watermelon spread across his tongue, a perfect contrast to the heat of the day.

Just as he was about to take another sip of his drink, a loud cry echoed from further down the beach, cutting through the sounds of the ocean.

"NOOO!! MASTER!" a frantic voice called out.
