—Is it really that tiring?
—Of course.
Lin Chuxia thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's because I was too tired from rushing back yesterday."
Gu Yuheng glanced at her and curled his lips: "Really? I thought I was the one making you feel tired."
Lin Chuxia: "..."
He shouldn't have mentioned it, because once he did, she couldn't help but recall the intense battle of last night... it almost cost her her life. She didn't know why he was suddenly so agitated; was it because of the change of environment?
Early in the morning, Lin Chuxia didn't want to delve into these suggestive questions, and if she couldn't figure them out, she simply put them all out of her mind.
She reached out her hands to Gu Yuheng, her voice soft and sweet as she woke up, sounding to Gu Yuheng like she was pleading: "Pick me up."
When your wife is being affectionate, how can you not give in?
With a smile in his eyes, Gu Yuheng leaned down and picked her up with a look of doting affection.
As she got closer, Lin Chuxia felt the coolness emanating from him and asked in surprise, "You got up so early this morning?"
"Okay, time to get up and pick mushrooms."
"What mushrooms are you picking?" Clearly, Lin Chuxia had no recollection of Lin Qingze's request last night that Gu Yuheng get up at five o'clock every day, nor did she remember that Gu Yuheng had woken her up early this morning before leaving the house.
She was probably still half asleep when she was woken up, so she didn't have much of an impression of the incident.
Gu Yuheng didn't mind, and simply said, "I picked some mushrooms for you, I'll take you to see them later."
After washing up, Lin Chuxia suddenly remembered something as she went downstairs and instructed Gu Yuheng, "Gu Yuheng, when my brother asks me why I got up so late, remember to cover for me. Just say we were too tired from traveling yesterday, so we got up late."
Gu Yuheng, who was a step behind her downstairs, couldn't help but smile and his eyes crinkled when he heard her words: "I guess he probably won't ask that question." After all, he had already guessed it.
"Even if my brother doesn't ask, you should at least find a chance to explain it to me." She couldn't let anyone know the real reason she slept in; otherwise, it would be incredibly embarrassing.
Gu Yuheng: "..."
Only his wife could come up with such a blatant attempt to cover up the truth.
However, Gu Yuheng still smiled and nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'll explain for you."
So, Lin Qingze, who was forced to listen to this "explanation," couldn't help but tap his back teeth.
Hmm, he suddenly felt a toothache.
I guess the dog food was too hard this morning, and it accidentally hurt its teeth.
...
Although Lin Qingze required Gu Yuheng to get up early every day, he didn't make things difficult for him in the evenings. After all, everything should be done in moderation; going too far might backfire.
Therefore, Gu Yuheng usually had plenty of time after dinner. He would chat with the two elderly people in the living room for a while, and then pull Lin Chuxia, who was playing games with Lin Xiaoran, back to their room.
Since we have to get up early, our nightlife naturally has to start earlier too.
He's not a god; he can't really only rest for an hour or two every day. If he ruins his health, his brother-in-law, who deliberately makes things difficult for him, won't feel sorry for him. Only his wife will truly care about and worry about him.
Moreover, he couldn't possibly ruin his health just to please his brother-in-law for a moment, only to become a burden to his wife in his old age, could he?
He also wanted to prove to his wife that he was still "vigorous in his old age".
