Chapter 231 - 209: The Little Strawberry is Exposed
Opening her eyes, the room was still dark, with sunlight filtering through the gaps in the curtains and casting on the floor.She moved her body slightly, only to feel sore and weak, and also something pressing on her.
Turning her head, she saw his face, her thoughts coming back, and a smile slowly spreading across her lips. It turned out that everything from last night wasn’t a dream, they were really together...
She pursed her lips and giggled, gently twisting her body in his arm, facing him. The movement caused their skin to rub against each other, making Gu Qimiao blush slightly again.
Carefully, she moved her hand out from under the blanket, her fingers slowly reaching towards his face, gently outlining his brows and eyes, smiling foolishly, her happiness beyond words.
The little hand that was making mischief on his face was suddenly grabbed by him. When his eyes opened, they were sharp and clear, not at all drowsy from sleep.
Gu Qimiao looked up at him, seeing his thin lips slightly open, his voice hoarse, "Awake and already causing trouble?"
With a doting reproach, Gu Qimiao snuggled into his embrace, her dark eyes staring at him without blinking.
Shen Yanchen had no resistance to her gaze, he moved his lips closer and kissed her. Her eyelashes trembled, and she asked him, "...Was yesterday your first kiss?"
Under her slightly expectant gaze, Shen Yanchen blinked and said, "Yes." After a two-second pause, he asked her, "And you?"
Gu Qimiao shifted her gaze a bit guiltily and whispered, "Me too..."
His hand slowly caressed her smooth back, once marred by lashes she took for him as a child, now without a trace.
Suddenly lifting her head from his embrace, she said, "Actually, that wasn’t our first kiss."
Shen Yanchen raised an eyebrow, "Oh?"
"I kissed you a long time ago, that time when you were asleep."
Hearing this, Shen Yanchen chuckled lightly, "Actually, I kissed you a long time ago as well, you were also asleep, and even a [tongue][kiss] didn’t wake you."
Gu Qimiao: "..."
Seeing her blush deeply, Shen Yanchen found it amusing. He pinched her bottom and asked, "Hungry?"
Not liking his touch, Gu Qimiao dodged, "A bit."
Looking at the sun outside, it was so intense, the time must not be early?
Shen Yanchen wickedly pushed his lower body up, "I’m hungry too."
Gu Qimiao immediately understood what he meant and hurriedly pushed him away, feeling both shy and incredulous, "Last night was so long..."
"Gu Qimiao, you owe me thirty years of happiness, how can one night be enough?"
"I don’t owe you anything..."
Seeing her lift the cover and about to get out of bed, Shen Yanchen grabbed her arm, buried his head in her neck, and lightly bit her. She, too sensitive, squirmed and pushed his head away, "Are you a vampire?"
"Hmm, so thirsty, the scent of your blood is wafting from your pores, I..."
"Ding—ding—" The phone rang, interrupting his teasing words, giving Gu Qimiao a chance to push him away. She sat up and grabbed the phone from the bed.
Seeing the caller, Shen Yanchen frowned, but Gu Qimiao didn’t hesitate and answered quickly, "Teacher Fang!"
On the other end, Fang Shaobei’s voice was gentle as usual, "Just woke up? I called a few times this morning but there was no answer."
Gu Qimiao hesitated, thinking how to explain, but Fang Shaobei didn’t give her time and went straight to the point, "Want to have a meal together?"
Shen Yanchen listened to the voice on the phone without interfering. He stayed close behind her, his tongue lightly tracing her spine, one swipe after another.
Gu Qimiao’s mind went blank, and Fang Shaobei asked, "Are you still listening?"
Coming back to her senses, she looked at the time and saw it was already noon. She pushed Shen Yanchen away and answered in a daze, "...Where? I’m in Mai City."
"In Mai City? How about the place across from the art college, we’ve been there before."
"...Okay."
She hurriedly hung up the phone, frowning at Shen Yanchen behind her, hugging his head to stop his actions.
Shen Yanchen turned over, propped his hands on either side of her body, and looked down at her, asking, "You and he have a ’regular place’?"
"No... We often eat together at work."
Shen Yanchen looked displeased, so Gu Qimiao carefully pushed him, saying, "It’s time to get up, it’s already noon."
At first, he didn’t move, staring at her before his gaze slowly dropped to her bare chest.
Seeing his gaze, Gu Qimiao quickly covered herself and grabbed a towel from the bedside table, lifted his arm, and wrapped it around herself.
As she slipped off the bed, she almost fell to the ground when her legs gave out, but Shen Yanchen, anticipating this, caught her, his smile full of pride as he looked at her.
She glared at him playfully, and after adjusting, she went to the wardrobe, grabbed a set of clothes, and hurried into the bathroom to change.
When she came out, Shen Yanchen was already dressed impeccably, unlike the irrational man dominated by [desire] last night.
He adjusted the cuff of his shirt, turned his head to look at her, scanning her outfit, and tugged at her skirt, pulling her closer.
"What are you doing?" Gu Qimiao stood firm, pressing down her skirt with her hand.
"Your little hickey is showing."
Following his gaze, Gu Qimiao saw the [intimate] mark on the inside of her thigh, quickly found a long skirt, and changed again.
"I’m going to meet Teacher Fang, you can go eat by yourself."
"I’m coming with you."
Gu Qimiao paused, thinking that it wasn’t a big deal since their relationship was now established. No need to hide it; she wanted the whole world to know that Shen Yanchen was her man!
He drove, looking more spirited after last night’s activities, in a good mood, with music playing in the car.
In no time, they arrived at the agreed restaurant, where Fang Shaobei had already booked a table and was sitting.
Fang Shaobei didn’t seem to expect Shen Yanchen and awkwardly chose a two-person table.
Clearly seeing it was a couple’s seat, Shen Yanchen showed no sign and nodded at Fang Shaobei, pushing Gu Qimiao into the seat, then sat next to her, squeezing at the same table.
Though not crowded, it was a couple’s table, making the situation slightly awkward.
Fang Shaobei maintained a polite smile and handed the menu to Gu Qimiao, "See what you want to eat."
Gu Qimiao smiled awkwardly, "Anything is fine."
Shen Yanchen took the menu without a glance and told the standing waiter, "A pot of chicken soup." Then he turned to Gu Qimiao and said, "You worked hard last night, need to replenish."
Fang Shaobei’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, seeing Gu Qimiao’s face turn red as she glared at Shen Yanchen, he could clearly feel the change between them.
He already had a rough idea in his heart, feeling bittersweet, content as long as she was happy.
