36. Is he being affectionate?
joke?
Ke Qi shook her head: "I'm not joking."
At least at the time, she was serious and genuinely pursued him with marriage in mind.
But now...
"That's good."
The smile in his eyes became genuine. "How about this Saturday?"
"Sorry, how about next week?"
Ke Qi lowered her eyes slightly: "I'm going home this week."
Seeing his puzzled look, she explained, "I'm going to celebrate my younger siblings' birthdays."
"Like this~"
Gu Zhao looked at the barely perceptible dimness in her bright eyes and asked, "Don't you want to go back?"
Having her thoughts exposed, Ke Qi simply admitted, "Yes."
That home was filled with warmth and the joy of family life.
Unfortunately, none of that mattered to her.
"Ke Qi".
Gu Zhao took in the sadness she was trying so hard to hide, and gently stroked her beautiful eyebrows and eyes with his fingertips.
"Don't force yourself to do things you don't like."
He didn't say it too explicitly, but Keqi still understood what he meant.
but……
"I still want to go."
Ke Qi didn't want to explain too much to him, so she only promised, "Don't worry, Gu Zhao, when I come back, we can go back together to meet the elders."
"But before that."
She said solemnly, "I'll tell you a secret about myself first, a secret that might have a huge impact on you."
"If you can still accept me after hearing this secret, I'll go with you to meet the elders, okay?"
Gu Zhao met her gaze quietly, without replying for the time being.
Although she didn't explicitly say what the secret was, he already knew.
But outwardly, he still feigned curiosity and asked, "Oh, what secret? Can you give me a spoiler?"
"Anyway, it's a huge secret."
Ke Qi's expression was serious: "The kind that will shock you to death!"
Gu Zhao almost laughed at her little expression. "Oh, I see~"
Her ambiguous descriptions made it seem to outsiders that she had committed some kind of murder or other illegal act.
Gu Zhao found it amusing, but calmly agreed, "Okay!"
So the matter of meeting the elders was temporarily put aside.
Gu Zhao placed her calf on his knee and rubbed it. "Does your leg still hurt?"
Ke Qi nodded: "There are still some."
"Then I'll carry you back."
After he finished speaking, he turned his back and squatted down.
Keqi looked at his broad back.
She had clearly resolved to ignore him for a few days, but after being so affectionate and coaxed by him just now, it felt strange to start a fight now.
She stopped arguing and got up to lean on his back.
"Thank you, Gu Zhao."
The girl's warm, soft body pressed against him, and Gu Zhao gripped her thighs, steadily lifting her onto his back.
"Next time I'm with my boyfriend, I don't have to be so polite."
Ke Qi stuck out her tongue: "I'm used to it."
Gu Zhao chuckled: "Hmm, a polite and well-behaved baby."
Ke Qi was a little embarrassed by the praise.
Whenever she was with Gu Zhao, no matter what she did, she would usually receive his praise.
Being in this kind of atmosphere, Ke Qi felt that she had become much more confident lately, and he was practically coaxing her into becoming an embryo.
She rested her chin on the crook of his neck and smiled, "Gu Zhao, your family must be very happy and fulfilling, right?"
"really."
Gu Zhao did not deny this, and turned his head with a smile, asking, "How did you figure that out?"
"It's easy!"
The bright sun shone on his clear and handsome face.
Ke Qi stretched out her fingertip and gently poked his beautiful short hair, which was dyed a warm sunlight color, near his ear. "I only need to look at you to know."
Gu Zhao raised an eyebrow: "Look at me?"
"Mmm~"
She chuckled softly, listing his good qualities:
"You are gentle yet strong, sunny and confident, with high IQ and EQ. You never doubt yourself and are always willing to give positive feedback to others."
"People who are with you will be unconsciously influenced by your magnetic field and become full of energy and confidence."
“You know, I’ve seen many children who grew up in love and happiness, and their traits are very similar to yours.”
However~
She kissed his cheek like a kitten, "Gu Zhao, you must be the happiest person I've ever met."
The happiest one~
It sounds like praise, and also like a blessing.
Gu Zhao's back steadily supported her petite body, feeling her warm body temperature, her vibrant heartbeat, and the sweet fragrance emanating from her.
At that moment, he thought he was indeed the happiest person, just as she had said.
"Thanks."
...
The flight to City S was scheduled for 9:00 AM the following morning.
So Keqi woke up at seven o'clock.
The location was Gu Zhao's house next door.
At this time, the morning light was still quite gentle.
Bright sunlight streamed through the white gauze curtains, illuminating Keqi and highlighting her appearance.
He wasn't wearing any clothes, and his fair skin was covered with spots, all traces of what he had left behind.
Unable to control himself, he left a clear hickey on her neck.
They are practically living together now; if there's any difference, it's that they have two shared apartments.
In these two little nests,
He almost lost control and ate her whole.
Knowing that she was going home today and would be separated from him for at least two or three days, he was especially fierce last night.
Many times, when things got really emotional, he coaxed her into agreeing to have a baby with him.
But Ke Qi didn't dare to agree.
Last night, I was kissed so passionately...
She used almost all her patience to hide her tail and horns.
Under the intense allure of his hormones, it was impossible for her to hide it.
So, if they really want to do it, they'll have to wait until she confesses her secret of being a succubus to him.
If he accepts her then, she won't have to hide in fear anymore.
In the future, no matter how much he wants, she will most likely grant his request, because she likes it too.
"woke up?"
While I was lost in thought, Gu Zhao suddenly walked in.
Ke Qi subconsciously pulled the blanket up a little higher.
Gu Zhao noticed this action, chuckled softly, and then approached, his gaze sweeping unabashedly over her barely concealed, fair curves.
Finally, he pulled off the cumbersome thin blanket and kissed her.
A fleeting kiss, like a dragonfly skimming the water.
It landed right on that little devil's birthmark.
"Gu Zhao!"
Ke Qi whimpered.
Her inner thighs still hurt. If it happened again, given how long it lasted, she wouldn't need to take her morning flight anymore.
"Don't be afraid."
After kissing her, Gu Zhao pulled her into his arms and pressed his forehead against hers: "This time, let me kiss you for a while."
"All right."
As long as you don't mess with her anymore, everything will be fine.
Keqi then closed her eyes, pouted her lips, and said, "Mmm, let's kiss."
Gu Zhao chuckled and lowered his head to kiss her for a while longer.
And so another half hour passed.
By the time we finished breakfast and went to the airport, it was almost time to board.
At the security checkpoint, Gu Zhao held her hand tightly, still unwilling to give up, and asked, "Are you sure you don't want me to go back with you?"
His beautiful peach blossom eyes drooped slightly, like a big dog abandoned by its owner: "I also want to meet your elders."
Ke Qi found it somewhat amusing.
Yesterday I could barely maintain my composure, subtly hinting at things without explicitly stating them, but today I can't keep up the act anymore.
Young people are always unrestrained and flamboyant; this is the first time I've seen them with such a gentle demeanor.
"Gu Zhao, what are you doing..."
She drew out the last syllable meaningfully, gently poked the tip of his high nose, and winked at him mischievously, "Are you trying to be cute with me?"
