After I jumped onto the bed, he stopped with a smile, gently brushed my hair aside, and asked, "It's already past midnight, aren't you asleep? Waiting for me?"
"No, not really... I slept on the way, I'm not sleepy now." I said slyly, my eyes darting around.
Actually, I'm just waiting for him.
I feel uneasy when he doesn't come back.
Su Shenglin was very clever; he saw right through me at a glance, "Little fox."
"You always like to give people nicknames."
No, I only like to name it for you.
I suppressed a smile, feeling happy, and nudged him: "Go wash up and go to bed, it'll be dawn soon if you keep dawdling."
"Okay, I'll go wash up. You go to sleep first." He kissed me again before getting out of bed.
I pulled the blanket over myself, listening to the faint sound of water coming from the bathroom, and my mind conjured up his strong and sexy body.
So many troubles and problems are right in front of me, but I'm not worried at all. All I can think about is men.
Sigh, I know I'm hopeless.
Su Shenglin came out after taking a shower, but I was still not asleep.
As soon as his warm and alluring body slipped into the blankets, I rolled over and snuggled up to him.
"You're being so proactive, which surprises me," he teased with a smile, pinching my waist as he hugged me.
I exclaimed in surprise, feigning anger, "What, you don't like it? If you don't like it, I'll just leave."
I turned over to get away from him, but he stretched out his long arm and pulled me back.
"I like you... I like you so much I'm practically half dead." He whispered intimately in my ear.
Back in our own private space, we were both noticeably more relaxed.
In just a short while, things were in full swing, and the arrow was on the bowstring and had to be released.
But Su Shenglin suddenly stopped, "Wanwan..."
"Um?"
"There are no safety measures in place here, is that alright?"
I was taken aback at first and didn't understand, but when I saw his expression, I suddenly realized.
He doesn't live here permanently.
This is also my first time staying overnight here.
Of course, no such little thing was prepared.
Seeing that I understood, Su Shenglin asked again, "Is it okay?"
"Of course not!" I suddenly snapped back to reality.
My enjoyment of male beauty and sexual intimacy with him does not mean I can accept being pregnant now.
A whole host of conflicts remain unresolved, and our future together is uncertain. If we were to have a child now, it would only make our already chaotic situation even worse.
Once I came to my senses, I pushed him away and pulled the blanket up to cover myself completely.
"It's getting late, go to sleep, you have a lot to do tomorrow."
Su Shenglin stood there, staring at me for a long while, then smiled in an ambiguous way.
"You really are..."
He couldn't finish his sentence, but I understood what he meant.
I am the one who is enthusiastic and proactive.
I was the one who suddenly came to my senses and refused.
It's a pity he's already so assertive; to force him back down like this seems rather cruel.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." I covered myself with the blanket, leaving only my eyes showing, and apologized innocently.
He was both amused and exasperated. As he lay down to sleep, he gritted his teeth and said angrily, "I'll go buy them tomorrow! I'll buy them wholesale!"
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Who's talking nonsense? I'm very serious."
"..."
Will I be mistaken for a pervert by the salesperson if I buy family planning supplies wholesale?
I couldn't help but chuckle to myself, and he hugged me tightly from behind.
"Go to sleep, these past few days have been too exhausting..." He kissed my ear, whispering to lull me to sleep.
I closed my eyes and never asked him why he had rushed back to Su Garden.
If he doesn't bring it up himself, then it's definitely not in my best interest.
Since that's the case, I won't ask any further and make a fool of myself.
I'll enjoy every day I can live right now.
Call it burying one's head in the sand or deceiving oneself, whatever.
That's all I can do.
————
The result of staying up late is that when it's light the next morning, I'm still sleeping like a log.
So it's no wonder Su Shenglin likes to give me nicknames.
When I opened my eyes, he was no longer beside me.
Reaching out to touch it, the blankets were no longer warm; it seemed he had been up for quite some time.
I got dressed and went out to find him.
After looking around, I found him sweating profusely in the gym.
"Awake? Why didn't you sleep a little longer?" Su Shenglin smiled as soon as he saw me, then got off the exercise equipment and grabbed a towel to wipe his sweat.
"The sun's already high in the sky, what are you still sleeping for?" I had just replied when my phone rang.
Upon picking it up, trouble indeed began.
Tang Xiu'e.
After settling them into the hospital last time, I had about ten days of peace and quiet, which allowed me to finish my fashion show abroad.
Now that she's back in the country, she's going to cause trouble again.
"Hello……"
"Jiang Wan, your father has been taken away by the police. They said he needs to cooperate with the investigation. His condition has just stabilized a bit, and he still needs to continue treatment. Do you think the police might arrest him again and lock him up?"
Tang Xiu'e's tone was flustered, and she sounded very anxious and at a loss.
But I remained calm.
Before I returned to China, I spoke with my aunt on the phone and learned that the Gu family's troubles were related to Jiang Haiyang, so it was expected that he would be taken away by the police for investigation again.
“You should ask the police or a lawyer about these things. Why are you asking me? I don’t know what he did.”
As I was replying to the other end, Su Shenglin wiped his sweat and walked towards me. He leaned down and kissed me on the cheek, whispering, "I'm going to take a shower. You go downstairs and get ready for breakfast."
I nodded, then looked downstairs with some surprise—was breakfast already prepared?
