Zi Yi giggled in response.
“Auntie Lu, why are you looking for us?”
“Oh, I’m calling to tell you the result of the discussion that Jingye’s father, your Dou Family and I have had.” Mrs. Lu was worried that any undue delay might bring about trouble and immediately made an appointment with the Dou Family for dinner after she ended the call with Lu Jingye.
Zi Yi, who was originally seated on the bed, had laid down on the duvet and swung her feet around happily. “Auntie Lu, what are the results of your discussion? Can Ah Jing and I get the marriage certificate immediately?”
Mrs. Lu smiled happily over the phone. “That’s right. To prevent trouble due to undue delay, Jianlin will complete the procedures for your marriage certificate tomorrow. Therefore, you can’t call me Auntie Lu in the future anymore. You have to change the way you call me.”
Zi Yi was extremely tactful. “Mom~”
Mrs. Lu felt her heart melting and her eyes were even somewhat moist. In the end, her voice was somewhat slightly trembling . “Good child, I’ll be your mother in the future and whoever dares to bully you, I will fight it out with them with everything I’ve got!”
Zi Yi’s lips curved up uncontrollably. “Okay!”
Mrs. Lu then started telling her about what she and Lu Jianlin had discussed with the Dou Family. “We will be discussing your wedding day in the following days. There’s no need for you to do anything. The both of you will only have to wait to be the bride and groom.”
“Okay~” Zi Yi’s voice lilted as she spoke. She rolled around the bed a few more times out of happiness.
When Lu Jingye had barely managed to suppress the raging fire within by taking a cold shower, he nearly had a nosebleed by the fiery scene in front of him.
The young lady rolled around on the bed while she was on the phone and she was originally only wearing a white formal s.h.i.+rt of his. Right now, the s.h.i.+rt came up to her navel and a few of the b.u.t.tons had even loosened due to how she had rolled about. Only a single b.u.t.ton was left done up.
With her current appearance, there was no difference as to if she was naked or not.
When Zi Yi felt a burning gaze looking in her direction, she made eye contact with Lu Jingye’s eyes which were a much deeper color than usual.
She somehow felt her throat going dry.
She then asked Mrs. Lu, “Mom, Ah Jing has come out of the shower. Do you want to talk to him?”
Mrs. Lu smiled and said, “No need. You can tell him the general gist of our intentions, and that will do.”
She even added and said, “I don’t mind being a grandmother next year. You two can work hard!”
Zi Yi responded loudly. “Okay.”
The call was disconnected the next second.
Zi Yi looked at Lu Jingye and he asked in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Mom? Hmm?”
Zi Yi felt her heart trembling because of his deep voice and said with a smile, “We will be getting our marriage certificate tomorrow. What should I call her if not Mom?”
“Tomorrow?”
“That’s right. Dad and Mom have already discussed it with my Grandfather and Uncles. They will help us get our marriage certificate tomorrow and discuss the dates for our wedding.”
The way Zi Yi called his Mother and Father ‘Mom’ and ‘Dad’ was extremely natural.
Lu Jingye lowered his eyes and the next second when he looked up, there was a burning light in his eyes.
He strode towards Zi Yi and his fingers slowly reached for the b.u.t.ton on his s.h.i.+rt. He then gently undid the single remaining b.u.t.ton with his slender and nice-looking fingers.
Zi Yi’s face turned red as she saw his actions.
Lu Jingye walked to the bedside and looked at her. “Yiyi, haven’t you always doubted if my body can do it or not, right ? I’ll let you check it out tonight.”
He pulled her towards him and his lips covered hers.
The base in the winter was indeed foggy and it was only 11 p.m at night when the fog had already spread out all around.
In the end, it had covered the whole yard and there were faint voices that would arouse one’s imagination coming out from the room.
…
Zi Yi inevitably woke up late the next day.
Her mind was in a blank state the second she opened her eyes and it was then followed by the sensation she felt from her body.
She buried her head into the quilt and her lips curved up uncontrollably.
She did not wish to move at all, but her stomach had been very honest, as it started to grumble.
Zi Yi clicked her tongue and just as she planned to let her stomach suffer, the sounds of the door opening could be heard.
She tilted her head and glanced over and was overwhelmed with how handsome Lu Jingye was.
Zi Yi felt that Lu Jingye seemed to be radiating light today and was Nth times more handsome than he usually was.
Lu Jingye was holding onto a thermos flask in his hand. He walked over when he saw that she had woken up.
“Yiyi, are you hungry?”
Lu Jingye was smiling as he said that and he looked as if he was refreshed and in a good mood. He walked over and placed the flask on the bedside table, sat on the edge of the bed, and reached out to touch her face. “Does your body still hurt?”
Zi Yi immediately started grumbling as she heard his question. “You’re a big baddie.”
Lu Jingye admitted it at once. “Yes, I’m a big baddie.”
Lu Jingye’s att.i.tude of admitting his mistake was good.
However, Zi Yi’s anger had yet to be appeased. “You look like a weak scholar on usual days…”
Before she could say something that would arouse his instincts, Lu Jingye lowered his head and sealed her lips.
After Zi Yi swallowed the words she wanted to say, Lu Jingye picked her up, together with the quilt, and put her on his lap. He then whispered in her ears in a dangerous tone of voice, “I’ve been vegetarian for 26 years and I’m pretty energetic. Don’t say these words so easily, otherwise…”
His voice became softer at the end and Zi Yi’s face turned red from his words. She shrunk her neck and snorted. “I feel uncomfortable.”
Lu Jingye saw that she was really feeling uncomfortable and so, he said, “Have some porridge first and then go back to sleep later.”
“I have no strength.”
“I’ll feed you.”
Lu Jingye held her with one arm and stretched out his other arm to open the thermos flask and put it by the side as he scooped the porridge and fed Zi Yi.
It was preserved egg and lean meat porridge. After Zi Yi had her fill, Lu Jingye put the lid back on the thermos flask.
Zi Yi regained some strength after filling her stomach and she stopped him from putting her down. She sat on his lap and asked, “Has Dad gotten our marriage certificate yet?”
“Yep, it’s done. I got my men to send it over today.”
Zi Yi was delighted. “You’re my husband from now on.”
“Yes.” Lu Jingye’s lips slightly curved up and he gave her a peck on her slightly bruised lips. “Madam, please take care of me for the rest of my life.”
Zi Yi looked at him with a sparkle in her eyes. She had also raised her head and kissed him on the lips. “Same to you too.”
…
By the time Zi Yi walked out of the courtyard where they stayed, it was already 2 p.m in the afternoon.
When she arrived at the laboratory, she was greeted by Elder Hu’s gaze. “You youngsters like sleeping in late every day.”
Zi Yi was not embarra.s.sed at all and she replied with a giggle, “Young people should sleep more when they are sleepy. Otherwise, when we reach Elder Hu’s age, we won’t be able to sleep even if we want to, and can then only stay envious.”
Elder Hu who was poked in his sore spot said, “…You stinky brat!”
