Chapter 11: The Female Supporting Character in the Control Group—Long-Distance Couples
The week before the college entrance examination, Yao Yao packed her bags and decided to return to Shanghai to become part of the large group of people accompanying their children to the exam.
Shen Yu naturally couldn't stop his brother-in-law from getting married. Although he wanted to go along, as the head of the group, he was really not having an easy time. The two-week honeymoon vacation was arranged well in advance.
The night before their departure, the two naturally had a close conversation.
After the storm of passion came a peaceful and serene warmth. Yao Yao was drowsy, but Chen Yu behind her was wide awake.
"Wife, I'll pick you up on the 9th." As he spoke, Shen Yu unconsciously hugged her even tighter.
Both of them were lying on their sides, with Yaoyao facing the window, while Chen Yu hugged her from behind, his large hand resting on her flat stomach, gently rubbing it back and forth.
Yao Yao instinctively refused: "No!" She wanted to enjoy Shanghai a little longer!
Shen Yu: "..."
He hadn't expected to be rejected so quickly. He thought back to how clingy his wife was when they got married, and now! Only a month had passed, and she wasn't clingy at all?
After reflecting for a while, Shen Yu realized he hadn't done anything wrong. Just as he was about to say something more, he found that Yao Yao had already fallen into a deep sleep.
Soft breathing came from beneath him, and her sweet face made him reluctant to disturb her. Shen Yu could only suppress his frustration and force himself to fall asleep.
The next morning, as usual, Yao Yao slept soundly until she woke up naturally.
Waking up to the sunlight is a wonderful thing. Yaoyao slowly opened her eyes, staring at the light streaming in through the curtains, feeling very content.
After meditating for a few minutes, Yao Yao gradually regained her senses and realized something was wrong—there was someone behind her!
At this time of day, Shen Yu would have already gone to the company, and the spot next to him would be cold. But today, he could clearly feel warmth on his back!
Yao Yao was extremely surprised. She turned around in a bit of a panic and met the familiar doting gaze, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.
Although she knew the chances of an outsider getting in were extremely low, Yao Yao still couldn't help feeling anxious. It was understandable, since she had recently become obsessed with crime dramas and couldn't help but overthink things.
"You scared me to death!" Yao Yao angrily slapped Shen Yu's exposed arm with her little hand to vent her panic.
Before Shen Yu could speak, Yao Yao's eyes reddened, her watery eyes filled with grievance: "It hurts so much..."
Shen Yu: "..."
There were no marks on his strong, muscular arms, but his fair palms were bright red.
Shen Yu immediately sat up, gently massaged her small hand, then lowered his head and blew softly on her palm, readily admitting his mistake:
"I'm sorry, honey, it's all my fault. I forgot to tell you yesterday that you were off today and that I would take you to Shanghai."
Yao Yao: "Didn't we agree that I would go by my own private jet?"
Shen Yu was supposed to attend an important meeting today, but he felt uneasy thinking about Yao Yao's rejection last night. So he shamelessly asked his father to come out of the mountains for a day so he could see his wife off and not let her forget him!
Thinking of this, Shen Yu couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart. How could he have imagined that he would become the insecure and clingy one after marriage!
Shen Yu naturally wouldn't tell the truth. He leaned down and kissed her palm, saying gently, "I don't want you to leave. I want to stay with you longer!"
Sweet words flowed from her lips, and of course, they came from the heart. Yao Yao was delighted to hear them, her expression slightly haughty: "Hmph~ Why are you so clingy!"
After saying that, Yao Yao couldn't bear to see her dear husband sad, so she added, "Honey, don't worry, I'll be back as soon as Zhizhi finishes her exams. Don't be sad while you're at home, and don't do anything bad while I'm not home, okay!"
Hearing the assurance from the previous section, Shen Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Doing something bad? Shen Yu was momentarily confused: "What bad thing?"
Yao Yao thought Shen Yu was pretending to be stupid. With the mistress of the house away, what bad things could the master of the house possibly do? The answer was obvious. Yao Yao feigned anger, grabbed Shen Yu's ears with both hands, and said, word by word:
"Of course it's all about romance and good things! If I catch you doing that, I'll divorce you... ah..."
Before Yao Yao could finish speaking, Shen Yu sealed her lips with his, domineeringly absorbing her breath with a hint of punishment.
This was Yaoyao's first time witnessing the domineering side of Shenyu, a truly novel experience with a touch of excitement.
Yao Yao was having some difficulty breathing, but the person holding her showed no sign of letting go. Yao Yao could only pinch him hard to remind herself that she was suffocating.
Shen Yu noticed Yao Yao's discomfort and reluctantly pulled away from her sweet lips. His possessiveness hadn't subsided, and looking at her innocent and pitiful expression, Shen Yu felt helpless, his tone even bordering on gritted teeth:
"Yaoyao, before today it was just you, and from today it will only be you. There will be no one else. Don't think nonsense, and you can never have any thoughts of divorce again!"
Yao Yao: "Hmph~ I'll believe you for now!"
Shen Yu wanted to speak again, but Yao Yao covered his mouth with her hand. Their eyes met, and from their gazes, they seemed to understand what the other wanted to say.
Yao Yao: "Time will tell."

They always cherished the time they spent apart. Shen Yu carried her to get ready in the morning, as this was the first time the couple had been separated for such a long time since they got married.
Yao Yao didn't think much of it at first, but seeing Shen Yu's reluctant eyes and his meticulous care, she felt a little sad.
At 3 p.m., the two arrived at the Ji family home, where only Ji's mother was present. Shen Yu chatted with his mother-in-law for a while, then helped his wife pack her things. After Ji's father returned, the four of them had dinner together. At 7 p.m., Shen Yu took a plane back to the capital.
Before her marriage, Yaoyao began to feel uneasy sleeping alone in her boudoir. She missed her husband's warm embrace.
On the plane, Chen Yu, sitting alone, felt a little lost, wondering what Yao Yao was doing at home right now. Was she resting?
Around 9 a.m., the plane landed in Beijing. After getting into the car, Shen Yu habitually turned on his phone and found several missed calls, all from the kids in his circle. Just as Shen Yu was about to call one back, another call came in.
It's Zhao Yan.
After answering the call, Shen Yu immediately turned on the speakerphone, leaned back in his chair, and closed his eyes to rest.
"What a coincidence, it went through! Brother Yu, you're really hard to get through to!" Zhao Yan clicked his tongue on the other end of the phone.
Shen Yu didn't explain, but asked directly, "What is it?"
"Brother Yu, it's been a long time since we got together. Come to the Blazing Flame Club, all the brothers are here. Bring your wives too!" A refreshing voice came from the other end of the phone.
Shen Yu thought for a moment, realizing he hadn't had a get-together with friends since getting married: "Okay."
