Shen Fu was indeed very tender to his wife, knowing that with so many little people in her head, she must have overused her brain, so she definitely needed a high-quality sleep.
After quietly moving to the guest room, Shen Fu did not disturb Xiaodie, nor did he undress. Watching her pretty little face gradually become intoxicated and fall asleep.
However, he dared not sleep too soundly and woke up early. He first removed all potential weapons within reach, such as the water cup, mobile phone, and slippers, then quietly waited for the little fairy to open her eyes.
When Bai Xiaodie blurredly opened her eyes and saw Shen Fu, an expression of surprise appeared on her face, Shen Fu immediately asked, "Who are you, are you my wife Bai Xiaodie?"
Bai Xiaodie turned over, facing the ceiling, dead serious, "No, I'm Bai Shengnan."
"Mama mia~" Shen Fu immediately flipped backward, rolling off the bed.
"Hahaha~" Bai Xiaodie laughed heartily, peering out from the bed, "Bai Shengnan is proficient in all kinds of martial arts from ancient to modern times, and reacts unusually quickly. She might have kicked you off the bed before even opening her eyes."
Shen Fu patted his butt and got up, "If she's that fearsome I can rest easy, it means you never suffered any losses growing up."
"But I've been to the police station, haven't I? It was people she fought with, but in the end, I was the one taken in~" Bai Xiaodie said with a mix of laughter and tears, "Luckily, I was a triple-A student in the province, a national outstanding member of the Communist Youth League, and a gold medalist in the World Secondary School Math Olympiad, so the school protected me."
This was yet another interesting anecdote about Bai Xiaodie and her personalities, but with so many stories, even after talking for so long yesterday, some were missed.
"The Math Olympiad was also taken by Bai Kao'er for you, wasn't it?" Shen Fu snorted dismissively.
Bai Xiaodie nodded resentfully, "I could have at most gotten a silver medal on my own."
It was quite excessive indeed; even after winning a gold medal in the Math Olympiad, which guaranteed university admission, she insisted on taking the national college entrance exam, dealing a blow to her peers!
Even Wan Ziqian from Ji Province knew about the exam god from Sichuan Province and was deeply affected by it.

After breakfast, Xiaodie, who didn't have to go to work today, accompanied Shen Fu for a walk downstairs.
Below Zijin Garden Residential Area lies Zizhu Park, next to it is the National Library, and opposite is the Beijing Dance Academy. Its preciousness lies in its cultural and natural environment, which are both top-notch.
Normally, Shen Fu would run in the mornings, but with a head injury, he could only stroll, admiring the small bridges, flowing water, bamboo groves, and ancient trees, nurturing his sentiment, and also deciding where to go for lunch.
Today marked 100 days of marriage, which couldn't be simply celebrated with a takeout meal.
After enough strolling, Xiaodie headed to the National Library next door to read, while Shen Fu returned home to write in his study.
Glancing at the data for his novel, wow, it had unexpectedly reached the top of the recommendation list and the monthly tickets had almost doubled. Not only was his new book firmly at the top of the monthly ticket list, but it had also entered the top three overall!
It seemed his dear readers were truly kindhearted. Seeing that he hadn't been sidelined by a minor injury, their voting enthusiasm had increased.
He, known by the pen name "Prince Shen," first responded to messages on QQ and WeChat. They were mostly greetings from colleagues or fans, which could be collectively replied to in the group.
Additionally, there was concern from his studio employees Tianpeng and Ugly Orange. Shen Fu assured them, "It's only a minor injury. Don't worry about me, but I won't be going to the office for the next couple of days."
Ugly Orange: "I'm not very worried, actually. I just wanted to ask Prince, can you post a few more photos of your head injury? The readers love seeing that~"
Tianpeng: "The more serious the injury, the more fervent the voting. Bro, you know what to do."
Shen Fu: "..."
He decisively muted his device and disconnected the internet to concentrate on writing.
Usually, when Shen Fu wrote his books, he would lock his room and turn off his mobile phone. However, now that he had Xiaodie on his mind, he kept his phone on, so she could reach him at any time.
Two hours later, with his fingers flying across the keyboard, Shen Fu finished the day's update tasks and picked up his phone to call Xiaodie first thing.
Then the ringing came from the bedroom—she had come back already and had borrowed a few books. Hearing the sound of a mechanical keyboard from the study, she knew her husband was still alive and didn't disturb him.
Shen Fu embraced Xiaodie as they went downstairs and drove to Huayuan Western Restaurant.
August 28 was the 100th day since their wedding—a significant day that called for serious celebration.
"You love the French cuisine here the most, so I've already booked us a table," said Shen Fu, holding Bai Xiaodie's hand with the same affection as during their dating days.
Bai Xiaodie looked at the unfamiliar restaurant, "Impossible, this is my first time here. Have you brought me here before?"
"Yeah, we've been here twice," Shen Fu frowned, "so who was the one who came with me before?"
"It must've been Bai Shanshan. Every time there's good food, she'd rush out to eat it. She even ate my graduation dinner for me, which left Wan and the others calling me cold-hearted and unfeeling. On graduation day, I was just focused on eating and didn't even cry with them."
Shen Fu asked Bai Xiaodie seriously, "Do you have the impression that I rarely take you out to eat?"
Bai Xiaodie thought for a moment and nodded earnestly, "Actually, that's not true, right?"
Shen Fu laughed out loud, "Actually, it is true. Your memory isn't wrong. I really didn't ask you out to eat much, and we ate at the cafeteria more often, so pursuing you was super cost-effective~"
"Yeah, it was either using my card or Wan's card~"
After teasing his wife for a bit, Shen Fu pulled out a chair for Xiaodie like a gentleman, "Today, your husband will certainly pay the bill. So, the usual it is?"
"Hold on!" Bai Xiaodie surveyed the seemingly expensive restaurant, "What do you mean by 'the usual'?"
"It means ordering a full set of their signature dishes," Shen Fu joked, "The first time we came, we hadn't made our relationship official yet, and you ordered all the high-end dishes; Australian Wagyu beef, French Jumbo oysters, poached egg with caviar, salt-baked snails, crispy foie gras, black cod fish, and duck liver lobster rolls. If I wasn't so well-off, I would have given up back then. You were such a big eater."
Bai Xiaodie's head was buzzing as she quickly flipped through the menu, her forehead breaking into a sweat as she calculated the total cost.
Shen Fu continued, "Honestly, when we first met, I thought you were treating me like a sugar daddy. It was only after getting to know you better that I realized you're a simple and good girl. Today, I finally solved that puzzle—it turns out that the one who was dining with me back then was a foodie named Bai Shanshan."
"She really is a glutton, spending 3,800 yuan on a single meal!" Bai Xiaodie visibly winced as she calculated the total cost.
Shen Fu corrected her, "It was over 8,000 yuan, actually. The portion sizes were small, and I had to order a second helping. Plus, there were desserts and bouillon. But you ate quite a bit of mine too. It's surprising, considering how little you usually eat, but it seems Bai Shanshan can eat so much more."
"No wonder Bai Shengnan said I had gained weight back then and insisted on working out like crazy. It turns out Bai Shanshan was eating behind my back!" Xiaodie murmured to herself.
"I think you look good with a bit of weight," Shen Fu said affectionately, holding his wife's hand, "but when those feasts are brought to our table later, and the delicious aroma fills the air, won't it summon Bai Shanshan out?"
(Do you guys know which day it is 100 days before August 28th? I'm not even sure if I counted the days correctly, and it's quite a coincidence that this book was started right on August 28th~)
