"Okay, coming right away." Qu Tong stood up from her seat, adding as she went to cover for herself, "I was just replying to messages."
A hint of doubt flashed in Si Yuting's eyes, but he didn't say anything and just nodded lightly.
As I was going downstairs, I ran into Old Man Yuan.
Old Yuan gave Si Yuting a cold snort, then took the French fries to the laboratory.
Qu Tong was blocked by Si Yuting's tall figure at the corner, so Old Man Yuan probably didn't see her.
"Did you have a conflict with my master?"
"No." Si Yuting seemed used to it and didn't react in any special way.
"Then why does my master think of you like that?" Although Old Man Yuan had never been fond of Si Yuting, he would at most turn a blind eye to him.
Si Yuting thought for a moment and then recounted in detail what happened while Qu Tong was asleep.
After that night, Old Man Yuan went to see Qu Tong, but Si Yuting stopped him, saying that she was resting and asking Old Man Yuan not to disturb her.
In the afternoon, on the third day, Old Yuan came to see Qu Tong again, but Si Yuting dismissed him with the same words.
Qu Tong was stunned. After a moment of silence, she said, "Do you think the way Master looks at you is like the way he looks at a beast?"
"Hmm?" Si Yuting looked back in confusion.
“That night, Old Yuan was locked in the lab preparing the medicine. The lab was very soundproof, so he didn’t know about our discussion. And you didn’t explain, so…” Qu Tong blinked meaningfully.
Si Yuting: "..."
"Wow! Honey, you're so brave and amazing! I couldn't get out of bed for three days!" Qu Tong exclaimed dramatically, covering her mouth and laughing uncontrollably.
Si Yuting's expression darkened, and he looked extremely aggrieved.
Pianqutong also made strange, whining noises.
Si Yuting's gaze towards Qu Tong darkened. He suddenly moved closer, grabbed Qu Tong's waist with his large hand, and whispered in her ear, "Tonight, I'll let you call somewhere else."
Qu Tong: "..."
Qu Tong's smile froze on her face, while she cursed him inwardly.
Seeing his wife's stunned expression, Si Yuting felt better.
Qu Tong glared at him: "Get out!"
Qu Tong broke free from Si Yuting's hand, and her footsteps clattered loudly as she went downstairs.
Si Yuting walked behind, his entire demeanor becoming relaxed and gentle.
Qu Tong went to see Cyprus.
Cyprus woke up a long time ago and has been indulging in feasts with Ke Jun these past few days.
With Qu Tong's instructions, Ke Jun and the others did not stop him.
I was just a little surprised that Cyprus has such a big appetite at such a young age.
Ke Jun told Xiao Guang to go with Cyprus.
Although Cyprus maintained a disdainful expression as if he were an ant, he did not drive Xiaoguang away.
Xiao Guang was also quiet by nature, and the two of them didn't have much to say to each other.
However, Cyprus wandered around Loy Star every day as if it were his own backyard, and never once did he run into Si Yuting.
When Qu Tong heard what Si Yuting said, she immediately realized why and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
After meeting Cyprus, Qu Tong dealt with some matters on the planet, and it was almost dark.
Qu Tong had been drinking a high-grade nutritional supplement that lasted a week, so she was too lazy to cook.
Old Yuan finally met Qu Tong, clicked his tongue twice, and shook his head with a sigh.
Qu Tong glanced indifferently at Old Man Yuan, whose mind was full of nonsense, and said, "If your throat is uncomfortable, drink more cold water."
"You think I'm not even worthy of drinking hot water?" Old Yuan snorted irritably.
He stopped being so frivolous and started talking about serious matters.
"Gong Yun is scheduling my final treatment with me. When are you available?"
Qu Tong hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's go back tomorrow."
I happened to go back with Si Yuting.
"Okay, I've already sent the potions to E12. My planet is still short of construction funds, so I sent some extra high-grade mental energy stabilizing potions over. You don't have any objections, do you?"
"what ever."
As long as the shop's supply of medicine is guaranteed to be normal next month, Old Man Yuan can use the medicine he concocts himself however he wants.
"Once my planet is built, girl, go and help me grow some medicinal herbs. I'll give you all the herbs you need to make your potions for free." Old Yuan rubbed his hands together like flies.
"We'll see," Qu Tong replied casually, glancing at the personal terminal.
Old Yuan knew that Qu Tong's words meant he had agreed. He told Qu Tong to rest well and then happily went out in the dark to have a late-night snack.
Qu Tong returned to her room, just as Si Yuting put down his smart device and finished his work.
Qu Tong had actually arranged another room for Si Yuting, but Si Yuting never stayed in it.
Si Yuting leaned against the headboard, his deep gaze fixed on Qu Tong, his voice muffled and indistinct: "Come here."
Qu Tong felt a backache when she thought of Si Yuting's wicked remarks that afternoon.
But her pride wouldn't allow her to bow her head, and her stubbornness wouldn't allow her to admit defeat. Qu Tong steeled herself and walked over, raising an eyebrow playfully: "What? You missed me after only an hour? Sigh!"
As soon as Qu Tong finished speaking, Si Yuting pulled her onto the bed and kissed her.
At first, it was a cautious, light kiss and a gentle bite, as if to confirm something, before the kiss became deeper and more thorough.
I don't know how Si Yuting does it, he can kiss so gently yet domineeringly, it's so contradictory, so... intoxicating.
“Ah Li.”
Si Yuting called out.
Her response was vague and fragmented between her lips and teeth, and her dazed gaze at the moved eyes before her no longer held their former sharpness.
"I've been wanting to, so much!"
His low, husky voice seemed to be answering her earlier question, yet it also sounded like something else, accompanied by heavy, sighing breaths. It's so hot~
As the rough fingertips crept up her thighs, sending shivers down her spine, Qu Tong snapped back to reality and reached out to grasp Si Yuting's hand.
"Husband, no!"
Si Yuting stopped what he was doing.
"I...I've started my period."
Qu Tong was a little nervous and even stammered.
If you lack confidence, make up for it with your eyes.
Qu Tong blinked her almond-shaped eyes innocently, looking pitiful, as if to say, "I really want to, but there's nothing I can do about it."
Si Yuting's dark eyes were like an abyss, staring intently at Qu Tong.
"Isn't your period at the beginning of the month?"
Qu Tong: "...It's ahead of schedule."
The air was silent.
Si Yuting closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and suppressed the turbulent emotions surging in his eyes.
"Ah!" With a sudden lightness, Qu Tong was pulled back into Si Yuting's arms, and instead of lying on Si Yuting's body, she was being hugged from behind by him.
"Don't move, let me warm your tummy."
Si Yuting's voice was hoarse and suppressed. He placed one hand on her head and the other on her stomach.
Qu Tong dared not move. That place was pressing against her inner thigh, making her uncomfortable, and she could even feel a terrifying heat.
Qu Tong felt guilty and said softly, "How about I use my mental power to help you?"
"not enough."
Qu Tong fell silent...
Si Yuting's palms were warm as he gently massaged her stomach, which felt incredibly comfortable.
There, perhaps, a seed already exists.
Qu Tong recalled her last encounter with Si Yuting, which was a month and a half ago when the Lan family had their accident. If she was indeed pregnant, the baby should be one or two months along.
During this time, she drank and celebrated with Fei Wenxing and the others, ate spicy food, often fought with Xu Anxuan and the others, and even had such an intense sparring session with Si Yuting, yet she didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
She was uncertain again. (End of Chapter)
