No one knew what was going through Qi Youxuan's mind but he let out a sigh out of the blue and said, "Auntie, aren't you going to consider to be my stepmother?"
This time, it was much more serious than before.
Qi Youxuan felt that Song Yu was demure and good-looking. She was also very attentive to him, thus making her a good candidate as a stepmother.
Song Yu was caught unprepared by his question. She blushed from the awkwardness and could not think of any appropriate remark to answer him. Suddenly, the ringing that sounded like the monologue from Detective Conan, 'There's only one truth', in Japanese could be heard.
Qi Youxuan then retrieved a blue Totoro-styled child cell phone from his pocket. The voice of Detective Conan originated from his cell phone.
"Hello uncle, " Qi Youxuan called out after answering the phone.
"If you try to steal my girlfriend again, I'll send you back home. Don't even think of getting the money." Qi Chengzhi's gentle threat could be heard from the phone. His voice was quite monotonous but it was enough to make Qi Youxuan hung up the phone with an unusually serious expression.
"Is your uncle okay?" Song Yu asked Qi Youxuan while she was helping him adjust his clothes after seeing the serious look on his face.
When Qi Youxuan was about to start talking when Qi Chengzhi's cold, deep voice called out from his back."I was on the phone for some work-related issues and he disappeared in a blink of an eye, that's why I called to ask where was he."
Qi Youxuan's cheeks were all puffed up while he glared at Qi Chengzhi angrily.
He was no match for his uncle if they were to compare who was more shameless.
Qi Chengzhi pouted his mouth at Qi Youxuan sarcastically while he extended his well-structured palm to hold his hand.
Qi Youxuan stared at Qi Chengzhi in surprise because knowing his uncle's temper, he would abandon him and left by now. He would never take the initiative and hold his hand. Even when they were in the Qi family house, his uncle had never treated him so well in front of great-grandfather and great-grandmother.
The next second, Qi Youxuan put the pieces together and understood what was happening.
Qi Chengzhi held him with his left hand and proceeded to hold Song Yu with his right. This action naturally separated him with Song Yu.
'Humph!'
Qi Youxuan mentally judged him with disdain.
Three of them walked out of McDonald's. Instead of heading to the direction of the car park, they went to the car accessories department.
"What're you buying?" He led Song Yu into a shop.
"I'm buying a child safety seat. Since Chenglin asked me to take care of him, I need to fulfill my responsibilities." Qi Chengzhi's deep tenor voice was already very pleasing to the ears but this statement made him look exceptionally serious and persuasive.
Qi Youxuan was the only one who almost puked after hearing what he said.
Qi Chengzhi spent very little time making the purchase. He did not choose and just follow the salesman's recommendation. As one would expect, the salesman recommended the most expensive model but he made the purchase without giving much thought.
When they reached the car park, he fixed the safety seat onto the backseat and let Qi Youxuan sit on it. Then, he tossed his school bag onto the seat beside him which filled up most of the space. Naturally, Song Yu was forced to take the passenger seat in front.
Suddenly, Qi Youxuan understood the motive behind Qi Chengzhi buying him the safety seat. He even made it sound so noble; being responsible was all an excuse.
Song Yu felt bad when she saw Qi Youxuan sitting all alone behind through the rear-view mirror. Qi Chenglin was unmarried when he brought a baby Qi Youxuan home out of the blue. No one dared to say anything to him since he was the youngest son of Qi family but there were many people spreading the rumor about him being an illegitimate son.
He did not have a mother since young. Furthermore, his father was not around him during Chinese New Year but he remained so cheerful. Song Yu felt even more sorry for him.
She wanted to ask Qi Chengzhi to stop the car at the side of the road and let her accompany Qi Youxuan at the back, but her hand that she placed on her knee was suddenly held by a larger hand.
The distance between the driver and passenger seat was not that far but Qi Youxuan could still clearly see the motion of Qi Chengzhi's hand extending across the seat.
Song Yu looked at his warm sturdy hand and said quietly, "The kid's behind us!"
"Then just sit tight and not to worry." Qi Chengzhi squeezed her hand and took the opportunity of the red traffic light to glance at her for a good few seconds.
Song Yu blushed and looked at him in surprise. How did he know what was she thinking!
...
...
Qi Chengzhi brought them back to his condominium in Viewpark Residence. Song Yu only agreed to go under the coaxing influence of Qi Youxuan.
Qi Chengzhi took the dumplings that Song Yu brought back home to freeze it in the refrigerator.
Aunt Yang did not even expect the arrival of Little Young Master, it was only natural that she was more startled when she noticed Song Yu.
She saw them acting all strange and distant the other day. Judging by the interaction today, it seemed like they were in a relationship.
Especially when Qi Youxuan called her 'auntie', Aunt Yang was totally dumbfounded. Furthermore, Qi Chengzhi did not oppose the way Qi Youxuan address her. It was obvious that he already acknowledged Song Yu's status.
'What will the Qi family think about this?' Aunt Yang shook her head then proceeded to tell herself that this was not something that she should be worried about.
Aunt Yang was about to bring Qi Youxuan for a shower but got rejected by him in a serious tone. He said something about men and women should not have physical contact with each other. Shortly after, he turned around and tugged at Song Yu's sleeve before he shyly said, "Auntie, take me to the shower!"
Song Yu was speechless."..."
So was Aunt Yang."..."
In the end, Song Yu brought Qi Youxuan to shower. Aunt Yang went and prepared the guest room that Song Yu had stayed in a few days ago for Qi Youxuan.
Qi Chengzhi's house was a duplex. There were many rooms available and Aunt Yang could not predict which one Song Yu will be staying in.
After she finished cleaning the room for Qi Youxuan, Aunt Yang planned to ask Qi Chengzhi but while she was hesitating on how to phrase it, he said, "Aunt Yang, you can rest now. Don't worry about it."
Song Yu finished bathing Qi Youxuan and blew dry his hair before taking him to the guest room.
Qi Youxuan had difficulty sleeping so he tossed and turned on his bed. He held onto Song Yu and said, "Auntie, tell me a story!"
Song Yu initially decided to go home after she tucked Qi Youxuan to bed. When she took out her cell phone to check for the time, it was already ten o'clock at night.
However, her heart was melted by Qi Youxuan's big googly eyes. Song Yu could not bear to reject him, so she searched for a story on her phone and read it to him.
Gradually, she heard the sound of steady breathing. Qi Youxuan fell asleep in the midst of listening to the story.
Song Yu smiled and turned off the table lamp. She made her way to the door through the dark with the help of the light from her cell phone's screen. She opened the door gently to prevent making any loud noise that might wake that little guy up. Her gaze was fixed at him the whole time to ensure that he was not awakened, only then she slowly backed away from the room.
Just as she gently shut the door, her footsteps were blocked when she tried to walk backward away from it. She was trapped between Qi Chengzhi and the door but his arms were out of her way. She could leave anytime she desires. However, Song Yu did not move. She did not want to, neither did she have the energy to move.
"I should be heading home..." Song Yu said with a lowered voice. Her trembling voice sounded as if her teeth were clattering in the chilly winds and the volume was so low as if it was stuck in her larynx.
Even though she said that she did not have the strength to move. Deep down in her heart, she was also unwilling to move. She just wanted to indulge at that moment.
Qi Chengzhi raised his hands and secured it on the door; the action was made to trap her in his arms completely.
"Aunt Yang..." Song Yu tried very hard to gather her strength and voice out helplessly.
"She's resting." Qi Chengzhi's voice became extra raspy. Finally, he grabbed her shoulder with one hand and turn her around gently. Song Yu placed both her hands on his chest and finally had a full view of him.
He was only wearing a silk bathrobe with a wide opening at the neckline. The rope on his waist was holding it loosely, baring the solid muscles inside. The thin robe also accentuated his taut figure. His body was exuding a faint scent of the shower gel as he just came out of the shower. The glasses on his nose bridge was missing. His features looked very much sharper in comparison to the day and it made Song Yu even more fluttered.
"In all honesty, do you really want to leave?" His lips nestled onto hers.
Song Yu could not refrain but to slide her hands up along his chest and surround his neck. Her soft fingertips caressed the evenly trimmed hair ends behind his neck affectionately. She was blushing and did not know how to agree to his words. Thus, she agreed tacitly without saying a word and took the lead to kiss his warm, thin lips. Her cheeks were burning hot as if it was on fire.
Once she was enamored of him, her eyes could only take in him and only him. Every movement and action of his looked so good, manly, and sophisticated. From the looks of it, this man have a cold mien but on the inside, he was mischievously villainous. These contradictory aspects made him one of a kind. His charm really managed to pull her heartstrings to the maximum.
She could only use one expression to describe a man of such magnificent style - unmatched in his generation.
However, such a uniquely magnificent man belonged to her now.
Qi Chengzhi smirked while he pressed her lips. He knew that she was easily embarrassed, so he did not tease her further.
...
...
Song Yu leaned on his body, unable to move as he had a grip around her. Both of them were slightly breathless. She could clearly feel the undulation of his breathing while she leaned on Qi Chengzhi's chest.
He was breathing at a steady rate, it made her felt secured. The up and down motion resembled a boat rocking gently. There were small droplets of sweat on his chest mixed together with hers.
Song Yu lifted her head and looked at his satisfied, half-opened eyes. He looked like a rascal, the sense of modesty and composure that she saw on the magazine previously was nowhere to be seen. Her fingertips could not resist but to touch his handsome face when she look at him. She traced his delicately charming features. She felt unreal like she was in a dream that such a good-looking man was then hers.
Qi Chengzhi saw her looking up and traced his face with her soft fingertips; that motion was as light as feather. She probably would never know how immersive her expression looked, where she naturally revealed such deep, tender affection. She rested her chin on his chest, her dark eyes were still a little lost but they were filled with trust.
Qi Chengzhi's heart fluttered and could not resist himself to plant a kiss on her forehead.
At that moment, her fingertips had already passed the tip of his nose, sliding gently across his moist lips and reached his scruffy chin. She put some pressure on his stubble with her fingertips and felt an itching sensation. This was all very new to her. She locked gaze with Qi Chengzhi's deep, dark eyes looking ever so tenderly at her when she lifted her head. Song Yu's heartbeat was racing as if she was bewildered by his gaze. She allowed him to give a gentle peck with his stubbly chin.
Qi Chengzhi grinned slightly. She looked like a small pet with her cheeks all blushed. Her obedient manner stirred something inside him but she suddenly straightened up her body.
"Where are you going?" Qi Chengzhi became serious as he thought she was about to leave. His tone was heavier than normal.
"I'm taking a bath, " Song Yu blushed.
...
...
As Qi Chengzhi turned the showerhead off, he immediately carried Song Yu to the bed; there was no intention to wipe their body dry. As a result, the bedsheets were drenched. Song Yu could not sleep and started pondering about the women he got involved in the past. This was an inevitable thought when a woman started to be emotionally involved with someone. They would not be happy after hearing about their partner's past relationship but they still insisted on hearing it.
When Song Yu was thinking halfway, 'Aili' popped up in her mind. Her heart stifled when she recalled that morning when he subconsciously called out this name.
All of him was already savored by other women, including his kiss, his body, and the sense of charm.
She was very particular in relationships. Similarly as to how she could not tolerate Jian Yi. Even if he was willing to cut off all ties for her sake, she would not accept him again.
"Qi Chengzhi, how many women have you had before me?" She pointed at his firm chest with her fingers. She dared not to lift her head and look at him as she added, "Including serious and casual ones."
She felt cliche when she asked it out loud but she would feel unsettled if she did not ask him.
"..." Qi Chengzhi looked at her and tightened his grip around her. He was perplexed as to where did she gather her energy to think about this after two rounds?
Song Yu felt a little puzzled when she could not get his answer. She asked with a dejected voice, "Who's Aili?"
