She actually wanted to marry him because of her studies, because of the baby, and because she really had feelings for him.
Apart from the somewhat terrifying impression he gave her that night in the hotel, he was truly impeccable in other aspects.
But she knew clearly in her heart that the gap between them was too big, and she couldn't accept this sudden happiness calmly.
Hearing this, Bo Junyi's eyes darkened slightly. He saw her slender wrist trembling slightly, and her bitten lower lip had almost lost its color.
"It's okay." Bo Junyi's voice was unexpectedly gentle, and his fingers gently brushed across her cold fingertips. "I can wait."
These three words made Li Susu look up suddenly, her eyes full of disbelief.
She didn't expect Bo Junyi to give in like this, and even look at her with such gentle eyes.
Bo Mingxiu cleared his throat and said, "Susu is right to think so. Junyi, you should give her more time to adapt."
Seeing that she was not used to drinking bird's nest, Bo's mother handed her a bowl of sweet soup at the right time, "Susu, Auntie understands your feelings. We are not in a hurry, let's take our time. Drink something hot first to warm your stomach."
"Thank you, Auntie." Li Susu took the porcelain bowl, suppressed the surging emotions in her heart, and drank the whole bowl of soup in small sips.
After lunch, Li Susu chatted with Wen Nianshu for a while.
Seeing that she was always yawning, Wen Nianshu arranged for her to go upstairs for a nap.
After the servant left, Li Susu stood in the middle of the bedroom, looking at the large European-style bed covered with silk sheets, her steps hesitant.
The bed curtains hang from the ceiling, swaying gently in the breeze. The delicate dark patterns on the bedding give off a soft luster in the sunlight, and the whole bed looks like a work of art.
She bit her lower lip, and finally tiptoed to the chaise longue beside her, and lay down carefully, not even daring to take the pillow.
She slept in a very formal manner, occupying only a small space on the sofa, for fear of wrinkling the exquisitely embroidered cushions.
The sunlight filtered through the gauze curtains onto her, outlining her thin figure. Her eyelashes cast a light shadow on her face, and her breathing was so light that it was almost inaudible.
When she turned over, she subconsciously glanced at the empty big bed, and a warm scene quickly emerged in her mind of her and Bo Junyi sleeping in each other's arms with two babies sleeping beside them.
Not knowing what she was thinking about, she sighed softly and forced herself to close her eyes and sleep.
When Bo Junyi pushed the door open, this was the scene he saw - the girl was curled up on the sofa, like a vigilant kitten, not daring to relax completely even when sleeping.
His eyes darkened, and he gently walked over to her, leaned over and picked her up.
"Hmm..." Li Susu opened her eyes dazedly and found herself in Bo Junyi's arms. She suddenly regained consciousness. "I, I can do it myself..."
"Bed." He interrupted her, his voice low but unyielding.
He felt her body stiffen as he gently placed her in the center of the large bed.
Her fingers tugged at his shirt sleeves, her eyes filled with anxiety, "It'll get dirty..."
Bo Junyi lay down beside her, and wrapped her in his arms, "Let's get dirty together."
