Xuxu was speechless."Yan Rusheng, where did you go tonight? Did you take the wrong medicine?"
While they were busy talking, the episode ended. As she listened to the closing song, Xuxu put down her books, raised her hands and stretched herself.
Nowadays, she was completely unreserved even in front of Yan Rusheng and was no longer concerned about her own image.
Yan Rusheng seized the opportunity and scooped her up effortlessly.
Then he turned and walked towards the staircase.
Aunt Zhang was just about to come downstairs when she met them at the middle landing. Xuxu's face turned crimson, and she hurled punches at Yan Rusheng with all her might, berating him softly."Hey Yan Rusheng, you're such a pervert! Aunt Zhang is staring at us."
Aunt Zhang grinned and shook her head."It's alright, Missy. My long-sightedness has gotten worse lately, so I can't see very clearly."
Wen Xuxu was speechless...
When they were back in their room, Yan Rusheng pinned Xuxu down on the bed and fixed his eyes on her face.
His gaze was too affectionate, causing Xuxu to blush.
She swallowed her saliva and turned her face away from him."Where did you go after you left work? Did something provoke you?"
She sounded awkward, and her voice quivered uncontrollably.
Somehow, she felt that Yan Rusheng was not his usual self tonight, and his gaze was filled with an unfathomable heat.
It made her heart pound wildly.
"Stupid woman." Yan Rusheng low and gentle voice suddenly entered Xuxu's ears.
Feeling tickled by it, she let down her guard.
"If I'd known, I would've snatched you from him."
Upon hearing this, Xuxu opened her eyes abruptly, and her body jolted for a moment.
She stared at the man in front of her, shocked and baffled.
What... did he say just now?
Yan Rusheng leaned to the side and lay down next to her, his finger brushing gently against her face."Xuxu, should we have a child?"
With a child, she would hold a special place in his heart and their family would be complete.
Xuxu stared blankly at him."Do you really want to have a child with me?"
Or do you want it because it was Grandmother's last wish?
"I want you more." Yan Rusheng laughed softly and started to caress her cheeks."Let me think how many children we should have."
"How about one every year?
"Never mind. After pregnancy, I'd need to be abstinent for ten months. We should have one every two years instead.
"Forget it. Just one boy and one girl will be enough. Having too many children will affect our couple time, and they might even fight over their inheritance when we grow old."
Yan Rusheng stared at the ceiling and mumbled to himself.
Xuxu continued to stare at him with blankly. When she heard the words 'when we grow old', there was a twinkle in her eyes. Is he saying that we'll grow old together?
He's talking about our old age! Our old age!
Is... this a promise from him?
"You're not drunk this time. You're being perfectly sober when you said that to me."
Xuxu turned around with her back facing Yan Rusheng and mumbled those words.
Thinking back, they had been getting along very well with each other when compared to the past.
They left the house together every day and no longer showed their cold faces to each other. He also hadn't yelled at her for a long time.
