Shi Yang gently held Zhao ii’s head and kissed her forehead affectionately: "Feeling comfortable?"
"Comfortable." Zhao ii humd through her nose, with tears still glistening at the corners of her eyes from excitent: "Ah, I’m almost lted by you."
Shi Yang chuckled and pulled her into his arms; both of them were drenched in sweat and felt utterly satisfied.
Zhao ii rolled in Shi Yang’s embrace, kissing and playfully wrestling for a while before exhausting her energy. The warm sunlight stread through the window onto the bed, making her feel drowsy.
Zhao ii closed her eyes and mumbled: "Brother, I’m tired, will you hold while I sleep?"
Shi Yang’s wet black hair clung to his forehead, his smile radiant with satisfaction: "Alright, I’ll toss a towel first to wipe down."
Zhao ii let Shi Yang wipe her clean, and lay on the bed in her loungewear. Her hair, tousled by Shi Yang just now, was a wild ss. She squinted at Shi Yang, admiring his sleek muscles and lean, strong physique—very handso.
After Shi Yang finished wiping himself down, he looked up to et Zhao ii’s starry gaze and laughed: "Like what you see?"
Zhao ii giggled, her eyes as black as ink, showing deep admiration.
Neither of them was in the habit of sleeping undressed. Shi Yang put on so clothes and returned to bed. Zhao ii moved inwards a bit to make space for him, and as soon as he lay down, she snuggled closer.
Zhao ii stretched her legs between Shi Yang’s. Shi Yang cooperatively lay back, stretched his arms, and let Zhao ii rest on his shoulder, embracing her. Soon they were asleep, cuddled together.
Shi Yang had been driving for several hours, and after the intense release, he felt deeply exhausted, sleeping very soundly.
Zhao ii awoke briefly, thinking she heard so sounds, but she was too drowsy—she fluttered her eyelids and fell back asleep.
Thus, they didn’t notice soone had returned ho.
Zhao Dazhuang and Liu Xiue stood at the bedroom door, looking at the intimately cuddling pair on the bed, their expressions twisting abruptly, eyes wide with shock.
Zhao Dazhuang quickly covered Liu Xiue’s mouth to stop her gasp, pulling her away from the bedroom and carrying out the packed groceries, vegetables, and at, quietly turning to leave.
Once they were out of the building’s hallway, Liu Xiue voiced her complaint: "Why did you pull away!"
Zhao Dazhuang glanced sideways: "Why do you think? Did you want to wake them up directly?"
Liu Xiue hesitated, asking: "ii’s father, do you think they are...?"
Zhao Dazhuang laughed and, putting an arm around his wife’s shoulder, said: "It’s great if they are, if not, so be it. Shi Yang knows his limits; we don’t need to worry."
Liu Xiue pinched Zhao Dazhuang’s soft waist: "Is that how you act like a dad?"
Zhao Dazhuang yelped and cheerfully admitted: "If Shi Yang truly wants to be my son-in-law, I’m quite happy about it. But if you oppose, I’ll definitely listen to you—since you’re the boss at ho!"
Liu Xiue playfully pinched him again: "I didn’t say I’m against it, just concerned ii is still young, doesn’t understand this stuff. Besides, do you think Old Shi and his wife will agree to this?"
Zhao Dazhuang confidently said: "Whether they agree or not, as long as Shi Yang wants to, no one can stop him."
Hearing this, Liu Xiue laughed: "That’s true. If ii really ends up marrying Shi Yang, it’s great. At least Shi Yang truly cares for ii; I’d be at ease if she married him."
Zhao Dazhuang nodded in agreent: "Exactly."
Looking at the groceries in their hands, Liu Xiue said regretfully: "Bought fresh shrimp especially, oh well, let’s go ho and eat it ourselves."
Zhao Dazhuang and Liu Xiue cheerfully left together.
During Shi Yang’s high school exams, things went smoothly. He perford normally, feeling like the exams ended without much fuss. For the last subject, he even handed in his paper early, finding the examination room too warm.
However, when Zhao ii was taking her exams, Shi Yang couldn’t help but feel nervous. The night before, he suffered insomnia, repeatedly checking the alarm clock to make sure it was set, almost staring at his phone’s ti from dawn, fearing he’d wake up late and affect the exam timing.
Even though Zhao ii had always excelled academically and qualifying for the provincial teacher’s college was not difficult, he was inexplicably anxious.
Finally, reaching roughly the ti when it was appropriate, Shi Yang quietly got out of bed to make breakfast for Zhao ii: boiled eggs, plain porridge, so small dishes, milk buns. He even refrained from letting Zhao ii eat dumplings, fearing it might upset her stomach and affect her performance.
Zhao Dazhuang and Liu Xiue, worried about pressuring Zhao ii, were thinking about her while pacing at ho but dared not accompany her.
Like he did every day when taking Zhao ii to school, Shi Yang accompanied her to the school gates.
Shi Yang watched as Zhao ii checked her exam admission slip, tools, water, tissue one more ti to ensure everything’s correct before embracing her, instructing: "Don’t be nervous during the exam. You’ve probably practiced all the basic question types with your teachers. Carefully review after completing the paper. Don’t rush to leave, alright!"
Zhao ii nodded obediently: "Don’t worry, I’m going now!"
Shi Yang couldn’t resist hugging her again: "Don’t be nervous now!"
Zhao ii couldn’t help but smile: "Brother, I wasn’t nervous initially, but the way you’re acting is making a bit anxious."
Shi Yang quickly released her, a bit helpless: "Then you better get inside now, don’t forget to visit the restroom before the exam."
Zhao ii laughed and asked: "Brother, are you especially nervous?"
Shi Yang rubbed his face: "You’re the one taking the exam, why should I be nervous? Go on inside, I’ll wait right here for you!"
Even after Zhao ii’s silhouette vanished at the school entrance, Shi Yang couldn’t help but crane his neck, trying to look inside until the exam bell rang. Then he turned to head to the milk tea shop across the street from the school.
The warmth of creamy milk tea cald him, instantly dissipating the earlier tension.
Looking at the ti, Shi Yang stood up and ordered a sweet dessert set.
The cashier discreetly watched Shi Yang and smiled.
Having noticed this before, Shi Yang curiously asked: "Why are you smiling?"
The cashier replied: "I rember you. You parked your car outside our shop that day and didn’t move it until closing ti."
Shi Yang also recalled the incident, chuckling: "Isn’t that right? I genuinely forgot about the car back then, sorry for troubling you."
The cashier politely smiled: "It’s no issue. Our manager actually gave you a discount card, so you left quite an impression."
Shi Yang grinned: "Your manager is your boss’s sister, right?"
