Chapter 11
Gu Zhinian took Shi Wan directly to the master bedroom. Shi Wan saw that all her things had been put away. She could tell at a glance that the clothes in the cloakroom were Gu Zhinian's. After all, the two had quite a big difference in body shape.
"Do I live here too?" Shi Wan asked hesitantly. They haven't gotten married yet.
"We are husband and wife." The words were already on the tip of his tongue, so how could he let her go?
"But... we haven't got the marriage certificate yet." Shi Wan blushed and looked down at her toes.
"...I have to go out to work for a while in the afternoon and won't be at home recently. I can only come back on the day we get the marriage certificate." Gu Zhinian explained in a young voice.
"Oh." Shi Wan nodded blankly.
"This is Aunt Lin, the housekeeper of our family. If you need anything, just tell Aunt Lin directly. Also tell Aunt Lin if you have any dietary taboos. This is our home and you are the master here. You don't need to endure anything, okay?" Gu Zhinian said solemnly to Shi Wan.
"Hello, young sir." Aunt Lin was chubby and smiling, making people feel close to her at first sight. This was the name Gu Zhinian asked Aunt Lin to call her.
Shi Wan smiled shyly and nodded to Aunt Lin.
"Let's go, I'll show you your studio." Gu Zhinian had been preparing this studio for several years. It was on the second floor, with a large floor-to-ceiling window terrace. The view of the entire garden was right in front of you, and the swimming pool was right here. The decoration was very warm, with a whole wall of cabinets filled with all kinds of paper, pens, and paints, and in the corner there was a grand piano that looked very expensive.
"This is your studio. If you need anything, just tell Zhou Cheng."
"Are you really giving it to me?" Shi Wan carefully touched the expensive tabletop, the easel on one side, and the neatly hung pens. Shi Wan felt like he was dreaming.
When Shi Wan was learning to paint with his teacher, he used second-hand things, which were given to him by his teacher. Later, he would use the easels left behind by seniors in the school studio. After patching them up, Shi Wan used the same things during his three years of high school. Usually, he only had two pens and an eraser, and he was very frugal with paints. Shi Wan had never been so "rich" before.
"Of course, they all belong to you." Gu Zhinian pushed Shi Wan to sit on the chair, and when he looked around, he saw the view of the garden.
"I...I'll return the money to you." Shi Wan put his hands on the table, feeling very uneasy, and didn't even dare to look up at Gu Zhinian.
It was like a huge cake falling from the sky. Shi Wan was so sweet that he felt like he was dreaming. However, Shi Wan was scared and panicked. He didn't dare to accept such kindness and wanted to escape.
Shi Wan pursed her lips.
"Baby, it's too late." Gu Zhinian lifted Shi Wan's chin with his fingers and moved closer to Shi Wan. The two people's breath blended together. When Shi Wan met Gu Zhinian's deep eyes full of gentle smiles, her body stiffened and her mind went blank for a moment.
"This is my reward." Gu Zhinian kissed Shi Wan on her lips, and Shi Wan's delicate eyes widened.
Are all awards, prizes, and rewards like this?
"Well, this is called self-help. I'm afraid you'll be shy." Gu Zhinian smiled and reached out to ruffle Shi Wan's hair. Children are really easy to understand. Everything they think is written on their faces. "Let's go. Lunch should be ready."
"Oh." Shi Wan looked at the hand held by Gu Zhinian, and followed Gu Zhinian downstairs obediently. The food was already on the table. They were all home-cooked dishes with light taste. There was nothing that Shi Wan didn't recognize, which made Shi Wan breathe a sigh of relief.
Shi Wan looked at the chair that Gu Zhinian pulled out for him, and hesitated for a moment before sitting down. These dishes were all specially instructed by Gu Zhinian, and the most important thing was that the dishes were cooked!
If he got sick at home and ended up in the hospital, Gu Zhinian felt that he would lose all his face.
Shi Wan watched as Gu Zhinian kept picking up food for him, but he never ate the food in his bowl. He wondered if Gu Zhinian wanted to stuff him to death. "I can't eat anymore..." Shi Wan said dryly.
"I really can't eat anymore."
He really couldn't eat anymore, there was still a lot in the bowl. Now his stomach hurts so much, but the bowl is still full. Shi Wan wants to cry when she sees it.
"Hmm." Gu Zhinian put down the serving chopsticks and started eating his own.
Shi Wan watched Gu Zhinian put down his chopsticks and let out a sigh of relief. He then slid down a little in his chair and rubbed his stomach to make himself feel better. "Burp—"
Shi Wan covered her mouth and secretly glanced at Gu Zhinian's reaction. Gu Zhinian seemed not to hear her. Shi Wan was just about to breathe a sigh of relief: "Hiccup——"
"I... I'm done eating and will leave first." Shi Wan stood up in a panic, covered his mouth and walked out the door. Gu Zhinian signaled Aunt Lin to pour a glass of warm water for Shi Wan and brought it to him.
Aunt Lin was afraid that Shi Wan would feel embarrassed, so she didn't chase after him immediately. She gave Shi Wan some time to buffer before she went over. Shi Wan was sitting under a parasol next to the swimming pool, still hiccuping. Aunt Lin held back her laughter and walked to Shi Wan's side.
"Young sir, please drink some warm water."
"I won't drink the diluted warm water. It will give me diarrhea." Shi Wan covered his mouth and didn't dare to reach out to take it. He was really scared because he had diarrhea in the past.
"It's water that's kept at a constant temperature after being boiled. The master has instructed that the young master can't drink diluted warm water." Aunt Lin explained with a smile. The master really cares about this young master.
"Well, thank you, Mr. Gu." Shi Wan took the water and said thank you dryly. A strange emotion flashed through his mind, and his hand holding the cup tightened. Shi Wan wanted to touch Gu Zhinian but was afraid of him.
Shi Wan didn't sit there for long. After he stopped hiccuping, he prepared himself mentally for a long time before going back. Aunt Lin couldn't help laughing when she saw Shi Wan's clenched and unclenched fists. The little gentleman was very cute.
When Shi Wan came back, he saw Gu Zhinian eating the food in his bowl. That, that was the food he had eaten. Shi Wan's face flushed red and he didn't know where to look. He moved to the dining table in small steps and sat down, lowering his head and tickling his fingers, with only his ears exposed, making people want to tease him.
After lunch
Gu Zhinian was packing his clothes for a business trip in the cloakroom. Shi Wan stood aside, feeling hesitant. She wanted to help but didn't know where Gu Zhinian's things were.
"Wanwan, please pass me the things in the drawer behind you."
"Ah? Oh." Shi Wan quickly turned around and opened the drawer, which turned out to be a drawer full of underwear. Shi Wan looked at the black underwear, and his hands felt as if they weighed a thousand pounds, and he didn't dare to reach out to take them.
"What happened Wanwan?"
Shi Wan heard a laugh in Gu Zhinian's voice, and said calmly, "How many do you want?" After saying that, Shi Wan felt like his face was about to be burned.
"Three." Gu Zhinian raised the corners of his lips, his eyes gentle and he spoke softly.
Shi Wan grabbed three '歘' and handed them to Gu Zhinian, not daring to look at him at all.
Gu Zhinian took it, packed it slowly and put it into the suitcase. Shi Wan had the illusion that Gu Zhinian was touching him.
Xie Zhuo and Zhou Cheng came together to pick up Gu Zhinian. Shi Wan followed Gu Zhinian to the car and said dryly, "Have a safe trip."
"Well, take care of yourself at home." Gu Zhinian held Shi Wan in his arms, buried his head in Shi Wan's neck, smelling the faint fragrance on Shi Wan's body, feeling Shi Wan's trembling and resistance, "Baby, I hope you can get used to my closeness when I come back. After all, we still have to do more intimate things."
Shi Wan suddenly widened his eyes to see if anyone else around might have heard it. Xie Zhuo, Zhou Cheng, and the bodyguards were all in the car, and Shi Wan breathed a sigh of relief.
"They don't dare to listen." Gu Zhinian noticed Shi Wan's movements and smiled. "Remember to answer my call tonight."
"You, you, you should leave quickly," Shi Wan blushed and reached out to push Gu Zhinian, and Gu Zhinian let go of her hand.
"Let's go back." Gu Zhinian got on the car and the group left. Shi Wan watched them leave before slowly going back.
In the car——
"Tsk, so clingy. I don't know who said before that couples don't know why they have to be clingy. It's not like they will be separated forever." Xie Zhuo teased with a smile.
"So you are still single now." Gu Zhinian raised his eyes and glanced at Xie Zhuo, and an arrow hit the bull's heart. Xie Zhuo was so angry that he couldn't say a word and turned his back to Gu Zhinian!
