81 Returning Home
Dog bites dog
"I heard it. Every word."
After a long silence, Shao Yue suddenly laughed, and his eyes were filled with tears.
Liang Youwei couldn't bear it any longer. She straightened up and threw herself into his arms, hugging his neck tightly and leaning into his neck. Her smooth white shoulders trembled, and she choked slightly. "Then you have to promise me that no matter what happens in the future, you won't hide it from me."
His warm, dry palms gently cupped her shoulders. He buried his face in her hair and softly promised, "There won't be a next time."
Who would have thought that the next moment, in this heartwarming moment, Liang Youwei suddenly changed the subject: "So, if you don't have an ex-girlfriend, you're still a virgin, right?"
She sounded aggrieved, every syllable sticking to the same point, and asked a shocking question.
With his throat rolling unnoticeably, Shao Yue said, "...Not tonight."
Liang Youwei was confused. She got up from his arms, bewildered. "I didn't say I'd inspect the goods tonight."
It turned out that I was too hasty.
Shao Yue didn't dare look at her, and turned away: "Sorry." With a thousand shames in his heart, his voice became softer: "I still am."
As soon as these words were spoken, Liang Youwei's tears vanished instantly. The surprise came so suddenly that she whimpered like a kitten and flew back into his arms. Her shoulders still trembled, but this time it was purely out of laughter.
Shao Yue didn't understand Liang Youwei's magical train of thought. Seeing her crying and laughing, he felt helpless and confused: "What happened this time?" He gently stroked her waist-length hair and asked gently.
The furry puppet not only hummed but also rubbed against it: "Nothing, I'm just glad that you don't have an ex-girlfriend..."
And he's still a virgin.
Shao Yue was at a loss for words: "Aren't you afraid that I'll lie to you?"
The question of "virginity" cannot be determined at all, regardless of gender.
"I believe you. You won't lie to me." Liang Youwei turned her head and kissed his jaw. Then, with blushing cheeks, she met his suddenly widened eyes. "Right?"
Shao Yue was completely defeated.
How can there be such lovely people in the world?
Liang Youwei was so excited that she couldn't sleep. They were both half lying on the bed. She was still asking Shao Yue all sorts of questions: "When did you fall in love with me? What do you like about me? Tell me quickly."
Shao Yue pondered and looked at the ceiling for a while: "I can't remember exactly when, but it must have been after I became an adult."
Hearing this, Liang Youwei let out a long "ah" with regret.
Shao Yue paused: "What are you talking about?"
Liang Youwei opened her mouth: "I didn't say anything. You continue."
Shao Yue closed his eyes, calmed his disgust towards pedophiles like Qin Zhen, and only after eliminating most of his emotions did he answer the question.
"What exactly do I like... I can't really put it into words. It's just that whenever my family mentioned marriage and finding someone to settle down with, your face would appear before my eyes. Sometimes, seeing you smile at me would make me lose my focus; sometimes, when you asked me to go shopping, I'd be delighted. Later, when I was going to marry you, my family asked me to pick out a property in Shanghai as a betrothal gift, and I suddenly remembered that you said Tan Palace was very grand. So, I think, I must like you."
Liang Youwei felt strange. She propped herself up with her arms and straightened her upper body, leaning forward to get closer to his face: "But if it's about stability, shouldn't you think of being a good wife and mother? Do I have that kind of temperament?"
His breathing became disordered when she approached. Shao Yue didn't dare to look at her directly, but his face was held firmly and he looked into her eyes.
His breath was low. "I don't know. Maybe for me, the stability a significant other brings is psychological, so... she can be anything."
This was Liang Youwei's first time experiencing this kind of "liking" someone. She looked at his face, counted his eyelashes, and said, as if possessed by a ghost, "Then do you know what I like about you?"
"...face." His answer was brief, certain, and desolate.
"——But now I feel the same way." As if confirming something, Liang Youwei closed her eyes and gently kissed his lips.
Shao Yue was stunned, his whole body froze in place, unable to move.
Compared to his naiveté in this area, Liang Youwei was much more experienced. She gave him a sweet taste first, and after he felt dizzy, she straightened up leisurely.
The other person's pupils were dilated, and his pair of peach blossom eyes were filled with the misty rain of Jiangnan. Seeing this, Liang Youwei's smile deepened and her head became more dizzy.
Obeying her most hidden and primal desire, she raised her hand and pushed his shoulder with minimal effort. Shao Yue was the most docile toy, falling over at the drop of a hat. Her soft arms slid around the man's neck, her two radiant white legs encircling him in the perfectly standard woman-on-top position, a practice she knew with unwavering ease.
Soon, the sound of water could be heard and the air was filled with the scent of spring.
"No, no." At the critical moment, Shao Yue shook his head. His fully exposed chest was clearly rising and falling violently, but he repeatedly restrained his behavior, forcing his other self away from the warm and wet place. His voice was hoarse: "Weiwei, at least four months..."
"Then just lick it." Liang Youwei's whole body was drenched in pink mist, and her pretty almond eyes were almost narrowed into slits. The excessive psychological satisfaction had made her lose her mind and she spoke arrogantly, "My kissing skills on top are already behind Qin Zhen, but I can't be good at it on the bottom too, right?"
The veins on his forehead were throbbing wildly.
Liang, You, Wei.
······
Facts proved that Shao Yue was truly a very good learner and someone who could not stand being provoked. Before Liang Youwei brought up Qin Zhen, he was like a docile little bird, obeying her in everything. But once the word "Qin Zhen" came out of his mouth, the little bird instantly transformed into a big bad wolf, learning everything without any instruction.
Even when Liang Youwei cried and used "white moonlight" to change the subject, he easily resolved it with a sentence "young people love to lie."
Except for the lack of "real guns and live ammunition", the two people did everything they could, as if they wanted to make up for the regret of five or six years of misalignment in one night.
In the end, I made up for a lot of regrets, but I also suffered from severe sleep deprivation.
Taking Liang Youwei's shy personality into consideration, Shao Yue specially booked the wedding room in his own hotel instead of living in Shao's house from beginning to end like his elder brother.
Now it seems that it was quite prescient.
The past month has been spent preparing for the wedding. Now that he has resolved the major issue on his mind, Shao Yue has also started to deal with work matters.
Secretary He's eyes widened when he received the boss's video call: "Boss Yue, isn't today your first day of marriage? Why don't you take a break?"
He also attended the wedding yesterday with the secretariat members. When the concept became a reality, he realized how much time and energy Shao Yue had consumed on this wedding.
Every time we had a video call before, the other party was either drawing blueprints or supervising work. He was wearing rimless glasses and looked indifferent. As a straight man, I wanted to marry him after seeing him.
"No need. Let's get ready for the meeting and get down to business."
Considering that he had a morning meeting on Monday, Shao Yue did not wear a bathrobe as usual. Instead, he put on a casual suit jacket over his pure white inner wear.
He lowered his head, switching to the synchronized PPT, and spoke calmly, "The operational pressure in the second quarter is significantly greater than in the previous quarter. Everyone should take this as a warning. New Project has only been around for a few years, so we should prioritize quality over quantity and not rush into taking on projects. In addition to the regular variety show recordings in May, we've also added a CS boy group variety show. We'll be working overtime internally first, and the worst-case scenario is outsourcing..."
The morning meeting included just the right amount of items and ended quickly after twenty minutes.
Shao Yue took the last sip of his black coffee and concluded, "Everyone has worked hard this month, but at the end of the month, we'll still follow the same rules: bonuses based on performance and overtime. Let's encourage each other."
After saying that, he nodded to the serious-looking employee opposite him and hung up the video.
However, what Shao Yue didn't know was that in a deserted corner, his employees were almost stripping him of his clothes.
[Has anyone seen this?! Boss Yue has kiss marks on his neck and collarbone.]
[I saw it~ I feel like President Yue has finally started eating meat hahaha]
What do you mean by finally eating meat? That happened hundreds of years ago.
[No, no, no, as a man, I dare say that Mr. Yue is still a virgin]
[Dear, you are gay, can you please stop judging straight men?]
How can I not comment after sleeping with someone? That's annoying!
…
There was a bit of a backlog of documents, so Shao Yue called for express delivery in advance, and almost all of them were delivered to the main suite. After about half an hour of review, the person in the bed slowly woke up.
"Shao Yue...?" Liang Youwei called out incoherently, seeing a vague figure. A hand was extended to her: "I'm here. What do you want? Are you thirsty or hungry?"
Liang Youwei squinted her eyes and saw the folder on his desk: "Why don't you open the curtains? It's so dark, how can I work?"
"It's not too late to open it after you wake up."
It has almost become a habit. Ever since he knew Liang Youwei was pregnant, Shao Yue often used the back of his hand to feel her body temperature, just like now.
Pregnant women have fewer Chinese and Western medicine options than the average person, and even minor ailments can cause them physical pain. Furthermore, Liang Youwei had been acting up last night, and if Shao Yue didn't repeatedly check her temperature, he'd inevitably be uneasy.
Liang Youwei grabbed his hand and pulled it down from his cheek, saying weakly, "Well, open it now. I'm not sleepy anymore."
It’s so dark, don’t hurt your eyes.
"Why are you so listless? ...Is it because of last night?"
The person in front of him looked really bad, and Shao Yue fell into self-doubt, but he didn't go in.
Liang Youwei chuckled twice, her soft breath hitting his palm: "How could it be? I'm like this when I just got up. Help me up."
At first, she wasn't restrained in this regard, but later, when she realized her body couldn't take it anymore, she started exploring ways to reduce fatigue. Those who plant trees will enjoy the shade. Speaking carefully, Shao Yue should also thank her brother. Oh, no, Qin Zhen should be thanked too.
Liang Youwei struggled to get up from the soft bed and went to the bathroom in her slippers. Looking at her messy hair in the mirror, she brushed her teeth while thinking and laughing from time to time.
After a simple wash, Liang Youwei walked behind Shao Yue and naturally hugged his upper body from behind. Her well-groomed long black hair was blown by the morning breeze and swept across the man's cheek and chest.
"What are we doing today?"
As soon as she turned around, Shao Yue bumped into her smiling eyes. Liang Youwei hugged him without any obstruction, letting the fragrance envelop the space. She asked very attentively: "Are you very busy today? Do you have to work all the time?"
She wore no makeup, a clean, relaxed face, and a simple, creamy white silk dress, yet she was inexplicably captivating. Her pale eyes were captivating, as were the fine hairs. Nothing about her was complex, and nothing was bland either.
Shao Yue pinched his palms and ordered himself to wake up: "It's not very busy. I will try to finish my work in the morning. You can eat first. There are a few movies coming out recently. If there are any you like, we can watch them in the afternoon."
As he spoke, he took Liang Youwei's hand and asked her to sit down beside him steadily.
Pregnant women should not bend over for a long time, as this will cause stomach pain.
Liang Youwei thought for a moment and said, "How about a lighthearted comedy movie? It feels like I haven't had popcorn in ages, and then I want a large iced Coke!"
Before Shao Yue could say yes, she thought of something new, "Then I have to go pick out clothes quickly. Shao Yue, Shao Yue, do you want me to help you choose clothes?"
“…Yes. Thank you.”
Liang Youwei was amused by his gentle politeness and couldn't help but poke his cheek: "You are so polite, little husband."
With a loud bang, his brain exploded. Shao Yue's Adam's apple rolled and he spoke with difficulty: "Why, it's my little husband?"
Liang Youwei raised her eyebrows and smiled a little wickedly: "Because you are younger than your brother Qin Zhen. Of course, I mean in terms of age."
After saying this, she immediately jumped up and trotted away as if she was afraid of being caught, leaving behind only a faint fragrance and the fluttering hem of her skirt.
Shao Yue pursed his lips and his face flushed red, not knowing whether it was out of shame or anger.
After holding it in for a long time, he finally murmured, "...run slower, what if you fall?"
·
After spending two sweet days with the young girl, Liang Youwei was so happy that she didn't want to leave when Shao Yue suddenly said, "Weiwei, you have to go back home tomorrow."
The female guest was confused and repeated: "Return home?"
What is returning home?
Shao Yue patted the back of her head and said, "Have you forgotten all the old traditions? The third day after the wedding, the bride has to bring the groom to her home and stay there for one night."
Liang Youwei remembered it after hearing it: "Oh, I remember now, it's true. So should we go buy something?"
Shao Yue paused strangely for a moment: "Will you still be polite when you go back there?"
Logically speaking, Liang Ting'an should have prepared everything in advance.
Liang Youwei sighed: "You can't say that. My brother is actually a little bit afraid of Dad."
If Liang Jiangsheng died, maybe it would be possible to prepare it.
Shao Yue didn't say anything.
He really wanted to ask Liang Youwei, "Does the father know the child's biological background?" But on closer inspection, perhaps the person herself didn't know who the biological father was. And given her personality, she probably didn't care about the identity of the biological father.
He sighed: "Then let's go shopping this afternoon?"
Except for special circumstances, Shao Yue never lived in the Shao residence. Even after he got married, he lived in the Xia Mansion. The Xia Mansion only had a regular hourly maid who cleaned the house and took care of the meals. There was no other housekeeping staff, so naturally, there was no way to get someone to help with shopping at a moment's notice.
Liang Youwei brought her own aunt, but Shao Yue said firmly, "We only need two people at home, and we can let Aunt Gu and the others live upstairs."
Realizing that the other party was very averse to the idea of outsiders invading their private space, Liang Youwei no longer mentioned the matter. She thought that Aunt Gu and the others were old, so she simply let them semi-retire and not trouble them unless necessary.
Liang Youwei nodded and grumbled, "Yeah. I feel like this kind of etiquette is so troublesome. We're all family, yet we still have to prepare this and that."
Almost as soon as she finished speaking, her cell phone rang and a new message came in.
"Shao Yue!" Liang Youwei's voice floated with surprise, "Aunt Gu and the others have already bought the things and put them next door! We can lie at home all day in the afternoon again——"
Shao Yue laughed dumbly: "Yeah."
As an optimist, Liang Youwei's good mood often lasts for a long time.
At nine o'clock the next day, she was wearing a tight-fitting halter dress and happily spinning in front of the full-length mirror. After comparing for a long time, she finally chose a Mars green mulberry silk cardigan.
Shao Yue didn't know what he saw, his brows were slightly wrinkled, as if he was confused.
Liang Youwei sat on the footstool and let him squat down to change into her pointed stilettos. After putting the shoes on, she gently tapped his knee: "Shao Yue, why do I feel that your expression is a little strange?"
Shao Yue ignored her little gesture, stood up generously, and handed her his hand: "Nothing. I'm just curious why it's been three months now, and there's no outline to be seen at all?"
Liang Youwei smiled and said, "Maybe I'm too thin? I don't know. Anyway, the pregnancy hasn't stopped, so who cares."
"It's a bit of a lie, but the truth is there." Shao Yue picked up the exquisite handbag, smiled helplessly, and opened the door, "Let's go."
-
"Is the Second Ring Road very congested right now? Why haven't we arrived yet? Or did Liang Youwei sleep in again?"
In the living room of the main building of Liang's house, girls dressed up in fancy clothes were walking back and forth, almost wanting to make the sound of high heels with their cotton slippers.
Liang Zhihui lowered his eyebrows, as if concentrating on reading, and spoke slowly: "It's still early for lunch. It's a bit too early to come now."
So, will Weiwei come earlier just to see herself earlier?
Liang Ting'an listened intently and watched in all directions, making tea with a serious expression. He responded to his sister's words: "Zhihui is right. Jingyi, you should rest for a while."
Liang Ting'an was already anxious, and seeing Liang Jingyi turning around, he became even more annoyed.
Liang Jingyi ignored her brother and complained dissatisfiedly: "I don't know if she has been doing well these days. Aunt Gu said that Shao Yue doesn't like outsiders to enter the house, but he is a grown-up young master, can he take good care of Liang Youwei? He doesn't even use his brain when doing things."
The more she thought about it, the more irritated she became. The quiet agarwood in the living room couldn't calm her excessive emotions, so she simply informed her brothers and sisters and turned around and left.
"I'll wait for her at the door."
Looking at her receding figure, Liang Ting'an shook his head: "She's so irritable. I wonder how she's been getting by these past two days."
Liang Zhihui couldn't pretend anymore, so he threw all the French and foreign language documents aside and said casually: "She has a job, how can she have the time to think about other things when she is working."
Hearing the word "work," Liang Ting'an paused in thought, putting down the Ru kiln teapot. "Are you planning to start with multimedia? There have been quite a few reports against Bingshan Zhou Gan lately."
Liang Zhihui leaned back on the sofa and replied lazily, "Yes. We agreed a long time ago to kick all those old guys out. We don't have much time left, only a year at most."
As people age, their blood pressure tends to rise. Liang Zhihui's original plan was to piss Liang Jiangsheng off to death. Seeing his "elders" being expelled one by one by their children, it was hard to believe he felt comfortable.
Liang Ting'an picked up the teacup, but didn't intend to drink. He just gently stroked the smooth wall of the cup and asked: "After this is done, how many seats does Jingyi plan to take?"
Having said that, Liang Zhihui stared, retracted about 70% of his casualness, and sat up straight.
"At least ten. Liang Jingyi has already gone through all the basic departments and has a general understanding of the group's situation. However, due to her lack of experience and occasional unconventional actions, she doesn't have many useful and obedient people under her command. Most of them are hot-blooded young people with ideas but immature ones who need to be tempered."
Liang Ting'an noticed the hidden meaning and looked up: "So, you want to use your own people to push forward first?"
The younger sister left the sofa and smiled at him: "Is it not possible? Brother. Jingyi has already agreed."
Liang Ting'an suddenly curled his lips: "This silly girl, she was sold and still helped count the money."
If nothing unexpected happens, Liang Zhihui will turn the originally planned three-way division of the world into one superpower and two poles.
Liang Zhihui raised an eyebrow: "Does my image in Big Brother's heart really that terrible? This is just a temporary measure. When she grows up a little bit, everything that is hers will naturally be given to her. When the time comes, I will give her a few hundred million to play with without blinking an eye."
Liang Ting'an did not doubt the truth of this statement, because she had already spent hundreds of millions on Liang Youwei and would not be stingy with Liang Jingyi in the future.
"Big brother has never said anything like you're scary." The teacup was put down, Liang Ting'an stood up, and with a sigh, "Don't worry, I won't point out such things casually. It's sunny outside, why don't you go for a walk?"
Liang Zhihui smiled and stood up.
"Then let's go."
"I heard Shuyu say you have a poor appetite recently?"
"It's not that serious. It's a little hot, that's all."
"That's good. I thought the food in the cafeteria was even worse. Even you couldn't eat it."
“…”
"Zhihui, haven't you eaten these days?"
"When have I ever eaten in the company cafeteria? I always order takeout and cook my own meals."
The brother and sister talked as they walked, and soon they walked out the door and into the yard.
"Second sister!"
A laughing voice came first, followed by a big hug.
Before Liang Zhihui could react, she was enveloped by the warm sunshine. She subconsciously protected her lower back: "...Weiwei?"
The other person looked very excited and almost jumped up while hugging her: "Well! I'm home. Are you happy to see me? I got up early and came here early just to see you guys earlier~"
"Of course I am." Liang Zhihui's smile deepened, and he automatically ignored the word "we". "Have you seen the lunch menu?"
"I've read it all, and they're all the ones I like to eat."
After hugging her second sister, Liang Youwei wanted to hug her brother, but after all, they were adult "brother and sister" and she didn't dare to do so in front of everyone. So, she just blinked quickly at Liang Ting'an and respectfully called out: "Hello, big brother."
Liang Ting'an was inexplicably tickled by the joke. He tried to pretend to be serious and nodded, but the tenderness in his eyes could not be concealed: "I'm glad to be home."
The corners of Shao Yue's mouth twitched, and after a little control of his expression, he followed his wife and respectfully called out, "Hello, big brother."
Hearing the male voice, Liang Ting'an's smile froze a little, becoming cold and mean: "Yeah."
Liang Jingyi, who was the first to hug Liang Youwei, turned his head and his shoulders trembled slightly.
Aunt Zhou, who was following the welcoming party, saw this and patted her on the back, asking with concern: "Jingyi, are you okay?"
Liang Jingyi was still covering her lips, her voice sounding particularly serious: "It's okay, I just felt like sneezing a little, I'm fine now."
It's really interesting to watch men fighting each other in the face of a storm, like dogs biting each other, both of them end up with a mouth full of fur.
