When Gu Ruochu woke up the next day, it was already seven o'clock in the morning. The memories from the night before flooded her mind. Other than feeling a little heavy, she did not feel any discomfort at all.
"You're awake?"
While her mind was still in a daze, Huo Nanchen carried her and placed her on his lap. He had picked out some clothes for her and helped her put them on one by one.
"I'll do it myself. Give me the clothes." The tips of her ears turned red when she saw that he was holding her underwear. Gu Ruochu instinctively reached out to grab it, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
'Pervert!'
Even though they were married, seeing him hold that garment felt very strange.
"Behave yourself."
Gu Ruochu did not move again, especially when she felt the heat and tension in his body.
Their bodies were already sensitive when they were in close contact. Gu Ruochu did not want to cause trouble that early in the morning, so she could only close her eyes and let him do whatever he wanted.
A wave of joy spread from the bottom of her heart.
"Spread your legs.
"Raise your hand."
"..."
Hearing his serious voice, Gu Ruochu did not dare to look him in the eye. All she could do was avoid his burning gaze and quietly follow his instructions.
The moment of torment was finally over. Gu Ruochu put on her shoes as soon as she landed on the ground. As she walked towards the door, she suddenly paused.
There had been quite a commotion last night. Could she have been discovered?
"Get out." Huo Nanchen knew that she was thin-skinned and smiled softly. "If you're shy, you can just hide behind me."
Gu Ruochu raised her eyes and glanced at him. She noticed the large grin on his face. He had become more fond of smiling recently. It had become a new trait of his.
She pinched his finger.
"You can leave now."
"All right." Huo Nanchen allowed her to trample on his finger and led her downstairs. Gu Ruochu following behind him meekly. She had almost turned into an ostrich. Huo Nanchen blocked the flirtatious gazes that everyone threw at them.
Mrs. Huo was sitting at the dining table. When she saw the young couple come down, the smile on her face was obvious. "You're awake? Come and have breakfast."
"Sister-in-law and Big Brother woke up quite late today," Huo Zijun teased from the side. Mrs. Huo smiled and patted the back of his hand. "Eat your breakfast."
Huo Zirui's eyes were unreadable as he slowly closed his fingers together.
This sister-in-law was getting more and more annoying.
Gu Ruochu sat next to Huo Nanchen. She lowered her head and ate her breakfast. Huo Nanchen, on the other hand, was in his usual mood. He poured her some milk.
"I think that an old woman like me will soon be able to have a grandchild." Old Lady Huo saw the intimate interaction between the two and understood.
Who would have thought that a young couple, who did not have high hopes in the past, would be able to love each other to this extent?
"Mother, Ruochu is shy." Mrs. Huo smiled and interrupted Old Lady Huo's words. Gu Ruochu almost spat out the milk in her mouth.
Even if her mother-in-law knew about this, she did not have to say it out loud. Wouldn't that make her even more embarrassed!
"If it's a child, let nature take its course," Huo Nanchen replied. However, he unintentionally reminded Gu Ruochu about her harsh reality.
'A child?'
She was not ready to have a child. Why did Huo Nanchen keep insisting on having a child with her?
After breakfast, Huo Nanchen's cell phone suddenly rang. He glanced at it, and his expression changed slightly. He left the dining table to answer the call.
This single action made Gu Ruochu pay attention. She was curious about the identity of the caller.
A few minutes later, Huo Nanchen returned. Gu Ruochu noticed that his expression had changed and knew that something had happened. "What's wrong?"
