Song Yu felt emotional from seeing how handsome he looked at that time. The incisive gaze that he so often had was absent, and at that moment, he looked at her like she was the apple of his eye. Song Yu had an even greater appreciation for that handsome and magnificent man.
As a result of his gaze, a tender lovingness surfaced inexplicably from the bottom of her heart. She stretched herself and kissed him lightly on his eyes. Her thumb then drew gently across his facial features, thinking to herself, ‘How is it possible for a man to be so handsome?’
She scrutinized his face in detail and suddenly recalled that he had not answered her question, so she asked again. “What did you talk about with Auntie?”
“What else is there to talk about? The only thing I’d talk about is you and I. I told her not to interfere.” Qi Chengzhi wrapped his arm on her and tightened his grip.
Song Yu sighed. She had been resting her chin on his chest, but at that moment she turned her head slightly so her cheek was resting above his heart. She listened to his heartbeat, which had yet to return to normal speed.
“Did you rush back specifically for that? It must’ve bothered your work, right?”
“Not at all. I was already thinking about leaving.” Qi Chengzhi kissed her forehead. “You told me to come back earlier, didn’t you? I remembered.”
Song Yu smiled, lowered her head, and smelled the sweat on his chest. It was salty, but not pungent in the slightest.
It was as if nothing that came from him could ever be bad.
Song Yu frowned, looked up, and asked, “So, do you want to eat dinner tonight, or not?”
Without waiting for an answer, she sat up, counted the hours, and ascertained that he had not had the time to eat something.
She had overlooked that particular point because she kept thinking about him and his mother.
“You smoked and drank tea on an empty stomach?” She frowned disapprovingly. She then pursed her lips and rebuked him, “You’re not allowed to do that in the future.”
Once she was done talking, she sat up, and not bothering to cover herself in front of him, she moved to get off the bed.
“Where are you going?” He sat up immediately too, grabbing her by the waist. He wrapped his arms from behind and placed his warm palms on her belly, after which he planted a kiss on her shoulder.
“Down. I’ll cook some noodles for you.” Song Yu then asked, “Isn’t it uncomfortable for you because we did some…’exercises’…when you were on an empty stomach?”
“As long as you let me eat ‘down there’, I won’t feel uncomfortable at all.” He leaned over to her ear and whispered softly. His rich voice was very indecent because of his sexual tone. The eroticism in his voice tunneled through her ear and threaded deep into her body, sending shivers down her spine.
On the surface, there was nothing too unusual about his words, but it was his hand movements that led her to realize the hidden meaning behind his sentence. Her face turned red immediately!
A change of tone in those words was enough to make it lewd!
“Qi Chengzhi, you… how can you be so shameless!” Song Yu could not find any other word that could describe him appropriately. He was so proper when he had clothes on, but the instant he took them off, he was a beast!
She barely finished her sentence when he pushed her back down onto the bed.
“Qi Chengzhi, what are you doing!” Song Yu exclaimed in alarm and tried, unsuccessfully, to stop him.
…
…
On that occasion, Song Yu’s legs were trembling madly afterward, and she was red from head to toe.
She lay exhausted on the bed with no energy to get up. Qi Chengzhi’s fingers grasped her on her waist and he asked, “Do you still have the energy to cook those noodles?”
Song Yu looked at the time. In fact, it was still early, but she replied rather sheepishly, “Has Aunt Yang slept yet? If she hasn’t, maybe you could ask her to cook a bowl for you.”
Initially, Song Yu wanted to be the one who cooked for him, but she did not expect him to push her back down onto the bed so savagely.
Song Yu would not agree to him going hungry for the night. At that time, Aunt Yang was not yet asleep, so Qi Chengzhi requested Aunt Yang to cook a bowl of noodles for him.
Aunt Yang rummaged through the fridge, and upon remembering that the freezer contained some oyster flesh she had bought the day before, she took them out.
She mulled it over for a moment. Oyster flesh had benefits to men who ate them, and Qi Chengzhi had also been doing ‘it’ quite frequently as of late. At thirty-four years of age, he was no longer young. Aunt Yang had never seen him with other women in the past few years, and although she understood that Qi Chengzhi was probably unable to control his excitement once he had Song Yu, doing it too much would be detrimental to his health!
Song Yu had been cooking his meals recently, so Aunt Yang felt that it was inappropriate to say anything. Aunt Yang wanted her to add some ingredients that would benefit men’s health into those meals, but she felt embarrassed to bring it up. The perfect opportunity came that night, and Aunt Yang really wanted to just toss in every single type of ingredient that could strengthen his body.
In the end, oyster flesh covered the noodles completely, so much so that the noodles disappeared underneath the oysters.
She brought the noodles up to his room and could not resist advising him, “Sir, please eat more oysters. They’re good for you.”
Once Aunt Yang left, Qi Chengzhi carried the bowl of noodles back to Song Yu, and she saw how full of oysters it was. Almost immediately, she was speechless and embarrassed: the thought of Aunt Yang personally bringing the noodles up made Song Yu so ashamed that she did not know how to face Aunt Yang in the future.
“What’s up?” Qi Chengzhi was curious as to why Song Yu was red-faced.
“Aunt Yang…” She blushed while looking at Qi Chengzhi. “Oyster meat is an aphrodisiac for men.”
Qi Chengzhi, “…”
A mouthful of oysters did not stop his lips from curling into a teasing smile. “Aunt Yang’s afraid that you’re milking me dry?”
Red-faced, Song Yu hugged a pillow and retorted, “You’re the one who’s always so randy. This has nothing to do with me!”
Qi Chengzhi continued eating his noodles while Song Yu sat up. She used a blanket to cover herself, and the pillow was still hugged in her embrace.
“Are you busy tomorrow?”
Qi Chengzhi looked up at her, prompting her to explain, “If you have nothing to do tomorrow, let’s go and meet my parents. You’ve already brought me to the wedding today, so we can’t hide our relationship anymore. Jian Yi’s parents were there too, and I’m worried that his mother might go and gossip with my mom. So, I was thinking that we should tell them before they hear it from someone else. We can’t drag this on for long. Sooner or later, we’ll have to tell them.”
Qi Chengzhi placed his chopsticks down, walked over to the bedside, and picked up his phone from the bedside cabinet. He called Cheng Dongge and said, “Cancel my itinerary for tomorrow.”
“…”
“Tomorrow’s plan will go ahead as usual, but Chenglin will attend on my behalf.”
Song Yu did not expect Qi Chengzhi to cancel his work arrangements directly. She told him after he hung up, “If you’re busy with work tomorrow, you should deal with it first. Don’t just cancel your appointments because of this. It’s the same if I tell them myself.”
“In the event that your mom doesn’t agree, what then? Can you handle it all yourself?” He sat on the bed and held her hand with his slender, fair fingers. Noticing how she lowered her head in helplessness, he reminded her, “That is why I told you I’d follow you. I said that before, didn’t I?”
Song Yu leaned forward and rested her forehead on his shoulder. She inhaled the sweat-infused fragrance from his body.
“Qi Chengzhi. Have I ever told you that I feel lucky to have you liking me? Thank you for being so sincere towards me. I’m really happy that you came into my life,” she uttered softly as she placed her palm affectionately on his chest.
His chest was warm, and his thumping heartbeat was pounding gently on her palm.
Qi Chengzhi placed his arms around her with enthusiasm and hugged her tightly in his embrace. His warm, thin lips brushed through her eyes and then to her cheekbone. “Wanna do it again?”
“…” Speechless, Song Yu hit him. He just had to ruin the emotional moment with his words. “Why do you keep thinking about that!”
Qi Chengzhi chuckled with a resonance that was akin to the lowest note on a piano; it was rich and seductive.
He kissed her forehead, hugged her, and laid back down. “Time to sleep.”
…
…
The next day, Song Yu was still asleep when her lips were being gently kissed by a pair of moist lips. She groaned and strained to open her eyes, which she finally did, although she was still having some blurry vision. Bit by bit, Qi Chengzhi’s handsome face slowly began to look crystal clear.
“What time is it now?” Song Yu’s voice was hoarse and she was not completely awake yet. She leaned her head to look at the bedside clock and saw that it was not even eight. “Why did you wake up so early?”
“Didn’t you say you wanted to meet your family today?” Qi Chengzhi’s dry hand crept into the blanket and slid to her belly. His fingers gently massaged her there. “We have to leave a little earlier so we can buy something for them. I can’t be going to your home empty-handed for my first meeting with your parents.”
Song Yu was still blurry at first, but those words jolted her awake immediately. She ran off to get herself ready, and after both of them had breakfast at home, they left for the shopping mall.
In fact, Qi Chengzhi could simply ask Cheng Dongge to help get everything in order. There was no particular need to bring Song Yu to choose what they were going to buy, but because Qi Chengzhi would be showing up in person, he wanted the gift to be sincere.
He held Song Yu’s hand and they walked side by side. Song Yu watched as he chose those gifts without even the slightest hint of impatience. His slender fingers brushed across those items while his body stood still and upright, lending him an appearance of calmness and dignification.
