Chapter 48 Love Moon·048 "More"...
As soon as the words fell, a hot breath fell and the lips pressed against the soft ones.
He Chuyue's eyelashes trembled slightly. After taking a good look at the man's passionate eyes, she raised her lips, closed her eyes and responded to him.
His lips were a little hot, but very soft, and the breath that passed over his nose was filled with a scorching ambiguity. Behind them is a garden lit by warm light, in full bloom.
Still remembering to eat, He Chuyue bit his lips before leaving. When she met someone's dull eyes, she was in a very good mood: "Are you stupid?"
Xiao Zhiyan raised his hand and touched his lips, still a little unbelieving: "You bit me?"
"What, do you want to return it?"
He smiled softly, looking at her with ripples in his eyes: "No, let's go and eat."
The two of them went downstairs one after the other. Their state and pace were very different from when they first arrived. Xiao Wenqi covered his mouth, turned around and winked at Xue Lu, as if to say "how disgusting". Xue Lu glanced at him and took Chu Yue to the restaurant.
At the dining table, the family was having a great time, and outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, endless fireworks bloomed beautifully in the black night sky.
He Chuyue picked up the dumpling and put it into her mouth, her heart filled with satisfaction.
During the Chinese New Year, of course, there are still many people and it is lively.
Everyone at the table drank some wine, except Xiao Zhiyan and He Chuyue. Someone also felt itchy in her mouth when she saw this, but she didn't bring her cell phone, so she secretly searched Xiao Zhiyan's phone, but had no choice but to put it down, not feeling very interested.
She was called by Xue Lu to play cards. Xiao Zhiyan, who was listening to Xiao Wenqi talking, suddenly made an abrupt move - she went to the sofa opposite and took the mobile phone.
Xiao Wenqi thought it was He Chuyue's and was surprised: "Why are you still checking?"
"What do you mean by checking up?"
Xiao Wenqi saw the phone clearly and scratched his chin: "It's okay."
Xiao Zhiyan didn't know what he meant by checking up on him, so he didn't investigate further. He swiped up the lock screen and saw the history of the message board page.
[Is it true that pregnant women cannot drink alcohol? ]
[How many milliliters of alcohol can pregnant women drink? ]
[Can pregnant women sip wine without swallowing it? ]
He looked at He Chuyue who was putting a note on Xue Lu on the carpet, and his eyebrows curved.
New Year's Eve is coming to an end. The villa, which was once filled with laughter, has suddenly become quiet. Only the sound of firecrackers and fireworks can be heard outside the window.
He Chuyue's phone kept ringing as she finished video chatting with Dai Wenchun on the balcony. They were all blessings from colleagues and friends. Under the fireworks, she answered them one by one, her eyelids felt so heavy that she seemed a little sleepy.
She heard footsteps behind her, turned around, and saw Xiao Zhiyan walking towards her.
"Why are you sitting here?" He took the blanket and put it on her shoulders. "Are you cold?"
"It's not cold."
He held her hand, feeling the body temperature was almost the same as his own, and felt relieved.
"I just had a video call with my aunt, and Xiaoyang was there too."
Xiao Zhiyan sat on the chair with her and looked up at the sky: "I'm still a little nervous."
She became interested, "Why are you so nervous?"
He said, "He is the only one of your family I haven't met yet."
Under the light, the corners of the man's eyes were a little red. He Chuyue frowned, leaned in to smell it, and suddenly raised her eyes: "Have you been drinking?"
He blinked slowly: "One bite."
When everyone was toasting at the dinner table, He Chuyue heard Qi Yan talk about it and found out that their family had a good tolerance for alcohol at social events all year round, but Xiao Zhiyan was an independent researcher and his alcohol tolerance was his weakness, so he was the only one at the table who didn't drink.
So why is he drinking again now?
"Do you want a drink?" he asked first.
He Chuyue was stunned for a moment, "I want to - hmm."
Her lips felt warm, and the brief softness disappeared immediately. The aroma of wine mixed with the refreshing mint spread across her nose.
She licked her lips, and the faint sweetness on her tongue made her understand instantly.
He drank it for her.
Thinking of this, she curled her lips and moved her face closer.
“More.”
Xiao Zhiyan smiled, gently held the back of her head, and leaned in to kiss her.
As the night deepened, he was afraid that the excessive alcohol would affect her, so he put his fingertips behind her ear and gently rubbed her earlobe, his voice hoarse:
"No more kissing, it's alcohol after all."
He Chuyue curled her lips, rested her chin on his shoulder, and said resentfully, "Xiao Zhiyan, there are many things you can't do when you are pregnant."
The man chuckled and tightened the blanket around her.
Thinking of something, she raised her face and said, "Mom said you don't drink, so why did you drink like that that day?"
Naturally knowing that she was talking about the first night of their relationship, Xiao Zhiyan explained to her, "That day was a welcome banquet held by the hospital. It would be wrong not to drink at the banquet. I was forced to drink so much that I couldn't escape."
"Didn't Professor Xu help you?"
"I helped, but it didn't work." He was somewhat helpless. "It was Director Yan of our department. He likes to drink a lot."
He Chuyue thought for a moment and asked, "Is it the one who went to Lin City with you?"
"It's him."
Maybe it was because of the drinking, but he spoke slower than usual. "Actually, my alcohol tolerance is not bad. I won't lose consciousness after drinking, but my reaction is a little slow. I was also surprised when you called me that night."
She laughed: "What's surprising? Surprised that I remember your name and can recognize you?"
He shook his head and leaned his head against the top of her head: "You unexpectedly told the front desk that we are husband and wife."
“Is this true or false?”
She froze and moved away from his shoulder, "I don't remember anything at all."
After saying this, He Chuyue frowned, and there seemed to be some more memories in her mind.
As the lights came on, the lights in the hotel lobby were brilliant and dazzling, making the drunken people even more dazed.
Xiao Zhiyan, wearing a black suit, stood by the counter. He Chuyue behind him grabbed his sleeves. He couldn't stand straight at all and was almost half leaning on him.
She was wearing a black corseted long skirt that day, and a coat of the same color was draped over her shoulders, swaying precariously along with the woman's body. Afraid that she would fall, Xiao Zhiyan put his right foot against her shoe for support.
He originally wanted to call a taxi for her and leave, but when he passed the front desk, he was stopped and questioned by the manager. During this time, the endless questions seemed to have turned into countless strange languages that disturbed people's thoughts. He Chuyue directly held Xiao Zhiyan and protected him behind her, and said to the manager: "What are you asking? How can we prove that we are husband and wife? Kiss?"
Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but it was loud enough for the surrounding staff and guests to hear clearly, making them blush.
The shame and anger she felt later surged up in her, she covered her face and shook her head: "That wasn't me."
Knowing that she remembered, Xiao Zhiyan's smile did not diminish, and he said lovingly: "Okay, it's not you, it's my wife."
He Chuyue curled her lips: "Annoying."
The two of them leaned against each other again, just sitting there without saying anything, but it was enough.
He Chuyue suddenly yawned, and Xiao Zhiyan looked at her and said, "If you are sleepy, go to sleep."
"No, I want to stay up all night."
"Then let's go to the room. There are floor-to-ceiling windows in the room so you can see the fireworks."
Thinking about it, she nodded.
In the bedroom, Latte and Coffee were both there, but Latte was wearing clothes, while Coffee had only a small red scarf around her neck, which she had bought via express delivery two days ago.
He Chuyue squatted in front of them and asked Xiao Zhiyan: "Can you knit a sweater?"
The man faced the light and shook his head.
She looked at the cat and dog again: "I can't do it either, but my aunt can. Next time, let her knit one for Coffee."
Xiao Zhiyan agreed and asked her opinion: "Coffee might be stressed in a new environment. I was thinking, why not leave it in the villa for the next two days?"
Although the Peking University staff housing complex is a standard three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment, it is old in style after all, and the layout is not as spacious as a villa. Dai Wenchun didn’t know that she had a cat at home, nor did she know that her cat hair allergy had healed. There were so many things she hadn’t told her yet, so it was better to leave the coffee here.
She stood up and said, "Okay, we'll pick it up after the New Year."
"Um."
Although she said she was not sleepy, He Chuyue still went to the bathroom to wash up. After coming out, she went straight to the bed and even forgot to find the dog bed for Latte. It was only when Xiao Zhiyan placed the doghouse next to the bed that she opened her eyes slightly and reached out towards the shadow.
"What time is it?"
"It's ten minutes to twelve."
"I actually fell asleep." She said this and was about to sit up, but was held down by a big hand.
Xiao Zhiyan climbed onto the bed from the other side and said, "Go to sleep if you are tired. I will keep watch for you."
She giggled, still resting her head on his arm naturally, closing her eyes: "So good."
I don’t know if it was because she was sleepy, but her voice was soft and gentle. Because it was related to her job, her voice was rarely sticky, which made her more touching than usual.
Xiao Zhiyan lifted the scattered hair that was covering her and said softly, "It's your turn."
The only response he got was even breathing. He lowered his eyes, looked at the person sleeping in his arms, and kissed her on the forehead.
Almost at the same time, the fireworks outside the window suddenly lit up as if lighting up the day, shining brightly in the sky. The stars came here to watch the ceremony and witness the arrival of the New Year.
Latte made a vigilant "wu" sound, and He Chuyue's eyelashes trembled slightly but she did not wake up.
The fireworks bloomed again, and the brilliant colors lit up the surging love in the man's eyes. He tilted his head and kissed her on the lips, and in the context of the continuously blooming fireworks and joy, he quietly congratulated the person he loved.
“This is our first New Year together.”
"Happy New Year, Niuniu."
-
After seeing Qi Yan and Xiao Sheng off, the two set off for the family building.
Xiao Zhiyan had prepared everything two days ago, and now even the back seat was almost full, with Latte lying in the corner looking aggrieved.
He Chuyue smiled and warned it: "Don't eat it secretly."
Latte lay down: "Woo."
She looked at the share transfer contract that Qi Yan had just given her and asked him, "Twenty-five percent, how much do you have?"
The driver shook his head: "I didn't."
She was stunned and confirmed that the company on the contract was exactly the company run by the Xiao family. She didn't understand why her own child would not have shares in her parents' company.
The traffic light counted down, and he started again: "Remember I told you that they wouldn't give me money even if they had it?"
He Chuyue blinked.
Xiao Zhiyan was touched by her cuteness and curled his lips: "This is a real case."
"My brother doesn't have any either. The shares of the company were a New Year's gift from my parents to my daughter-in-law. After my brother got the marriage certificate last year, he gave her the other twenty-five."
Considering that the two of them together owned half of the company's shares, He Chuyue did believe it, and at the same time she also felt a little sympathy for Xiao Zhiyan.
Then, she squeezed the steering wheel and said proudly, "It doesn't matter. Although you don't have money, your wife does."
He smiled and said, "Okay, wife."
-
Family building.
After the greetings, Qin Tai and Dai Wenchun went to the kitchen, and the three of them sat down.
Qin Yang sat opposite, his eyes fixed on Xiao Zhiyan, and asked him all kinds of questions. Xiao Zhiyan never refused anyone who came to him and answered every question.
He Chuyue couldn't say anything about him in front of others, so she finally called him to her room before dinner.
"Sister, Mom said you're pregnant with twins. Is that true? You can't tell at all."
Her brother acted like a stupid son, and He Chuyue was so angry that she had no place to vent. She held her forehead helplessly and asked, "Why do you have so many questions?"
Qin Yangyi chuckled and scratched his head, "Brother-in-law is too handsome. Is it abnormal to be curious about handsome guys?"
"......"
Seeing He Chuyue's expression of "I don't believe you", he finally compromised, "I just see some difference between him and Xiao Mo——"
"Wait." She asked, "Who is Xiao Mo?"
There was a knock on the door behind her. He Chuyue turned around and saw Xiao Zhiyan pushing open the half-closed door. Qin Yangyi's voice then rang out.
"That's the person you wrote love letters to in high school. Hello, dear Xiao Mo, I'm He from Class 1, Grade 1—Um!"
He Chuyue rushed over, covered his mouth, and looked at Xiao Zhiyan.
"Why are you here?"
His expression remained unchanged: "Aunt said we can eat now."
Qin Yang nodded vigorously. He Chuyue let go of him and signaled him not to talk nonsense.
"Yes, we'll go right away," she said with a smile on her face, but she was actually trying to chase people away.
"good."
Xiao Zhiyan nodded, turned around, glanced at the guilty person, and then looked at Qin Yangyi.
"Xiaoyang, that word is 'wei', not 'mo'."
