Chapter 35 Chapter 35 Soft
I didn't expect that even though I'm married, I'd still be sleeping alone in bed.
Gu Zhao asked unwillingly, "We are all legitimate now."
He had already prepared the big bed at home, and had even made the sheets neatly, just waiting to lie on it with Ye Tan in his arms tonight. Now that he was told that it was not possible, his disappointment was indescribable.
But seeing that Ye Tan's expression didn't seem like she was trying to coax him, Gu Zhao took advantage of the situation and hugged her. He lowered his head and took a deep breath on her fair neck, while trying to find some benefits for himself: "I've had it so hard. You must compensate me with something, otherwise I won't be able to get through tonight."
Ye Tan smiled, and with her slender fingers she lifted his chin and pushed his face away a little. Their eyes met, "Why can't you live like this anymore?"
Gu Zhao was quick to notice that Ye Tan's tone was not very good, and immediately said, "I mean, I can't live on my own."
Ye Tan's expression brightened up a bit instantly, and she kissed him on the face to comfort him: "Good food is never too late, why rush?"
Gu Zhao wanted to kiss him on the lips, not on the face. Seeing him coming closer, Ye Tan put her hand on his face and pushed him away again, then reached to the side with one hand to open the car door.
"Stop dawdling, it's time for dinner."
The sunlight was shining on the car seat. Gu Zhao narrowed his eyes and sighed deeply. Once the car door opened, he would not be able to continue sticking to Ye Tan.
Finally, he stared at Ye Tan's lips unwillingly and fiercely, thinking that he must kiss him thoroughly later, because it was too tiring to see but not be able to taste.
Ye Tan pulled her skirt and tidied herself up, then stood by the car door and looked at the man inside who failed to control his facial expression.
At this moment, Gu Zhao really didn't look like a good person. Not only his face, but his whole aura was full of ferocity. If they had met Gu Zhao like this for the first time, there would definitely be no future for them.
Finally now, she no longer has any idea what kind of person Gu Zhao is.
While Gu Zhao was adjusting his breathing and restraining his expression, she was still in the mood to gloat: "It's all your fault."
Gu Zhao looked at her charming smile, touched his teeth, and thought to himself that he should let her be happy for a few more days until the wedding night.
He finally closed his eyes, straightened his collar to suppress his restlessness, picked up the military cap placed aside, and put it on. When he looked up again, Ye Tan found that the man's expression was serious and righteous, completely different from his impatient appearance just now.
Ye Tan: “…”
Good at pretending to be a man.
This time, Gu Zhao didn't dare hold Ye Tan's hand, for fear that the restlessness he had tried so hard to suppress would emerge again. The two walked home side by side.
The Ye family’s meal was already on the table, and they were just waiting for the newlyweds who had gone to get their marriage marriage certificate to come back and start eating.
Ye Tan took out the marriage certificate and showed it to everyone. Ye Yanlin looked at it curiously and said, "This marriage certificate looks like a big award. Should it be framed?"
Gu Zhao: "You can frame it, otherwise it will get damaged easily."
"But it's hard to carry around, and it's a glass frame, so it's easy to get squeezed and break when put in a bag. So, let's just leave it that way. If it does break, can't we just get a new one?"
Gu Zhao thought about it and realized that it made sense. "Then I won't have to worry about it getting torn if I put it between books later."
After seeing Er Feng on the side, Ye Yanlin couldn't help but reach out to grab it. Ye Yanlin frowned, dissatisfied with her rough action, "Be careful not to break it."
Er Feng didn't take it seriously and looked down. "What are you afraid of? Didn't I say that if it gets broken, you can just get a new one? Let me see what happens."
Ye Yanlin took advantage of her unpreparedness to grab it back and said dissatisfiedly: "It's easy for you to say, but it's not your time that's wasted, right?"
Erfeng curled her lips in displeasure and said to her mother, "Mom, look at how my cousin talks."
Jin Guihua was indeed feeling a little uncomfortable. Ye Yanlin spoke to his daughter so rudely, which was not like a brother. But before she could speak, Ye Jianhui on the side spoke first.
"Is your cousin wrong? This isn't a piece of paper, it's a marriage certificate. You'll need it when you go out to do business or stay at a hotel. Wouldn't it be a waste of time to get a new one if you tore it? You're such a grown-up and still don't know how to be more careful."
Erfeng could make a fuss in front of her mother, but she was still afraid of her father, the head of the family. Although she was very dissatisfied and wanted to talk back, she didn't dare to do so and could only lower her head and sulk.
Jinguihua tried to hold it in, but couldn't help but say, "The child is just curious to see what's going on. Is it really that serious?"
"Then what's wrong with Yanlin giving you a reminder?" Ye Jianhui said.
Jin Guihua: "Why are your arms..."
Ye Jianhui glared at her, and Jin Guihua swallowed back the words she was about to say, not daring to say any more.
Seeing that the couple was about to quarrel, Xu Huiling reached out and pulled Jinguihua to persuade them: "Okay, okay, sister-in-law is right. Erfeng is also a grown-up girl. If you are curious, just find a partner and get married quickly. You will be happier when you see whether you are right or not. Don't you agree?"
Xu Huiling was also very dissatisfied with Erfeng's behavior, but her son could speak rudely, but as an elder, she couldn't do the same.
Besides, today is my daughter's day, how can I let them quarrel and ruin the atmosphere? After saying this, I pointed at the food on the table in front of me and urged them, "Come on, come on, the food is getting cold, let's eat quickly. Jianguo, please pour some wine for Deputy Director Feng. This is all thanks to them and their wife, we should thank them for being the matchmakers."
"You're right. Come on, Deputy Director Feng, let me toast you..."
Ye Jianguo personally poured wine for Feng Xian. After the two of them drank a glass of wine, they brought Ye Jianhui along. The three of them drank one glass after another and quickly forgot the little unpleasantness caused by Erfeng.
Xu Huiling breathed a sigh of relief and signaled Ye Tan to put the marriage certificate away.
When Ye Tan put his things away and returned to the table, he saw a big chicken leg in his bowl.
She tilted her head and saw Gu Zhao smiling at her. When she looked over, he said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Your cousin almost took it away. Luckily, I was quick."
Ye Tan didn’t know what to be proud of, but he still praised him: “You are really awesome.” One should not discourage a man’s enthusiasm.
Gu Zhao: “…”
It seems like I got the praise but I didn’t get it.
Ye Tan picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of cabbage into his bowl, "You eat too."
Gu Zhao looked at Xiao Baicai and his face turned green, his brows were tightly knitted together.
Ye Tan was secretly happy. She had long seen that Gu Zhao was a real carnivore and vegetables were not to his liking at all.
Ye Tan picked up another piece of water spinach with his chopsticks and said, "Eating more green vegetables is healthier."
Gu Zhao ate the dish with a green face, and then kept picking up meat to eat.
Ye Tan gnawed on a large chicken drumstick, and after a while, he would pick up some vegetables for Gu Zhao. He watched Gu Zhao eat it reluctantly, and waited for him to take a few more bites of meat before continuing to pick up some vegetables...
Gu Zhao had a hard time eating and clearly didn't want to eat but forced himself to eat. Ye Tan rarely felt a sense of disgust in feeding him.
Gu Zhao chewed the green leaves fiercely, feeling extremely distressed, but since this was fed to him by his wife, he had to eat it even if it was real grass.
Everyone was eating and talking, and when they touched upon something of interest, Gu Zhao told everyone how to protect themselves in case of danger and how to use clever strength to immobilize people.
Everyone suddenly understood after listening to it. They didn’t know until they heard about it that these methods were quite simple.
Even Ye Tan secretly took note of it.
No one can guarantee that he will not encounter trouble in his life, so having more means of self-protection always provides more paths.
After the meal, the women left the table and went to talk aside, leaving a few men to continue drinking at the table. She and the others didn't care. Today was a rare happy event, so they just let it go.
Of course, the men did not include Gu Zhao. He had already taken the opportunity to slip away and went into the room hand in hand with Ye Tan to talk.
The legitimate son-in-law finally entered Ye Tan's boudoir and felt that the whole space was filled with the familiar warm fragrance of Ye Tan, as well as a rich aroma.
But it wasn't from Ye Tan.
"What scent?"
"Is it this rose?"
Ye Tan pointed to the desk by the window. On it stood a small porcelain vase with a yellow rose in it. A gentle breeze blew in through the window, and the delicate petals trembled slightly, emitting a faint fragrance.
Gu Zhao looked at the flowers, then at Ye Tan, and then nodded.
Ye Tan laughed and walked over, "What are you looking at so strangely?"
Gu Zhao touched the petals with his fingertips. "This flower looks a lot like you, but..."
Ye Tan asked casually, "Just what?"
Gu Zhao looked at her delicate cheeks and suddenly remembered a very elegant sentence: "Jade is soft and flowers are tender, but people are more beautiful than flowers." His fingers touched Ye Tan's delicate face.
The window in front was open, and the breeze blew in, ruffling her hair and making Ye Tan's nose itch. She reached out to brush her hair away and took his hand away at the same time.
"You should pay attention to the occasion."
Gu Zhao reached out to close the window, but Ye Tan held his hand back: "You want to tell others that we didn't do anything good in that room, right?"
It's simply a case of trying to cover up one's own mistake.
Gu Zhao grabbed her hand and held it in his palm. "Do you want to go out for a walk?"
Ye Tan picked up the palm-leaf fan on the table and sat down on a chair to fan himself. "It's too hot."
"Let's go to the small park we were in before. It's cooler there."
Not only is it cool, but there are also fewer people there.
Ye Tan raised his eyelids and looked at him, "Do you want to do something bad?"
Gu Zhao's little thoughts were seen through, but he still had the nerve to continue smiling, "We're already married, so it's a problem if I don't want to, right?"
When Gu Zhao spoke, he deliberately exhaled close to Ye Tan, and the air blew on his earlobe, dyeing Ye Tan's ears red.
She placed a large palm-leaf fan in the middle to block the view.
Then I heard the man's low laugh, and the big fan beside my face sank and was pressed against my face.
Gu Zhao put his palm-leaf fan on the table and sat face to face with Ye Tan, but what he was thinking about was the scene of kissing the girl against the wardrobe in his room yesterday. Her soft waist and sweet and fragrant smell were all unforgettable.
"Gu Zhao."
Gu Zhao came back to his senses instantly and found that his hand had climbed up along the girl's waist without him knowing when, and was now pressing on a soft and fragrant ball.
Ye Tan's face flushed red. He took out the palm-leaf fan and pushed Gu Zhao's face away: "You are very skilled. Do you have experience?"
Gu Zhaoxia quickly swore: "No, wife."
Ye Tan narrowed his eyes and asked in a doubtful tone, "Really?" He lowered his eyes to look at his stubborn big hands.
Gu Zhao also looked at his hands, then slapped them hard, "I don't know how it works."
Gu Zhao really had no practical experience, but his hands seemed to have their own ideas, and he knew where the most beautiful and softest holy place was without the master's instructions.
