One Pet Gets Married Chapter 41

"?" Tang You'an stared at the screen for a long ti before finally sending a question mark.

Since Song Xici had retracted the ssage so quickly, Tang You'an wasn't entirely sure if she had seen it correctly.

Fuck?

Afterward, the "typing" indicator at the top of the WeChat dialogue box kept disappearing and reappearing, but after a long while, Song Xici still hadn't sent anything.

Putting the lid back on her boxed al and setting it aside, Tang You'an had no intention of eating anymore. She just stared directly at her phone screen.

"You're not eating anymore?" Zhu Huitian lifted the lid of the boxed al, looking at Tang You'an.

"Mm," Tang You'an nodded.

Zhu Huitian suddenly felt that Tang You'an had been acting a bit strange lately. In the past, even if Tang You'an complained about the food tasting bad, she wouldn't eat so little. Moreover, she had never seed so addicted to her phone before.

After quite a while, Tang You'an finally received a ssage from Song Xici: "Did you see anything just now?"

Seeing this, Tang You'an couldn't help but grumble inwardly. Nearly ten minutes, and this was all she managed to type? Her typing speed must be terribly slow.

"What do you think I saw?" Tang You'an countered.

So, the "Other party is typing" indicator on the dialogue box started up again in the sa pattern as before... Tang You'an raised her hand to rub her brow.

At this mont, everyone was preparing to start work. Seeing that it was almost her turn to film, Tang You'an picked up her phone, pressed the voice ssage button, and brought it to her lips: "Are you ready on your end? Don't forget we're going to the airport later. We promised my parents we'd go tonight. I'll contact you after I finish filming here."

After saying this, Tang You'an put her phone in her bag, handed it to her assistant, let the makeup artist touch up her makeup, and then continued filming.

On the other end of the network, Song Xici sat on the soft sofa in Chen Shihan's office, her face alternating between red and white, her teeth chattering so hard they almost made a sound.

"Where are you?" At this mont, ng ng, completely unaware of what had just happened, continued to send ssages to Song Xici.

Song Xici propped her forehead with her hand, having no idea what to do.

"What's wrong with you? You look like you've seen a ghost," Chen Shihan walked in with a stack of docunts, glancing at Song Xici while flipping through them.

"Nothing..." Song Xici shook her head, then collapsed on the sofa in despair, motionless.

In the afternoon, after finishing her last scene, Tang You'an smiled and said goodbye to everyone who had taken care of her these days, then set off for the airport.

On the way, Tang You'an picked up her phone and called Song Xici. The phone rang for a long ti before soone answered.

"I'm heading to the airport now, what about you?" Tang You'an asked.

"Oh... I'm on my way too..." Song Xici's voice sounded a bit uncertain.

"That's good. By the way..." Tang You'an paused at this point.

Song Xici on the other end of the phone tightly gripped the corner of her clothes. What was she going to say?! About the ssage from noon?!

"I forgot to bring gifts for my parents," Tang You'an frowned. "It's impolite to go empty-handed."

Hearing this, Song Xici let out a breath: "Oh, that... Don't worry! I've already asked soone to prepare sothing. Haha, they'll bring it to

soon, hahaha!"

"That's good then. See you later." Tang You'an held the phone, smiling.

"Mm! See you later!" After hanging up the phone, Song Xici's heart was still pounding. Even though Tang You'an hadn't ntioned what happened earlier.

Could it be that she forgot? Or didn't see it? Or maybe she saw it but didn't understand what the single character "cao" ant? She now fully understood what it ant to be on tenterhooks.

After hanging up the phone, Tang You'an didn't do anything either. She just put her phone away, pinched the bridge of her nose, then crossed her arms and lowered her head for a short nap.

She hadn't felt it before, but now that filming was really over, she actually felt a bit tired. The good thing was that for the next period of ti, she wouldn't be very busy. The farming variety show wouldn't record episodes 3 and 4 for a while, and during this ti, generally speaking, there was only one movie audition left.

After arriving at the airport and passing through security, Tang You'an adjusted her glasses and mask, then walked straight towards the VIP waiting room.

When she reached the waiting room, she saw Song Xici already sitting there quietly, playing with her phone and drinking coffee.

"When did you arrive?" Tang You'an asked.

"Oh... I, about ten minutes ago." Song Xici glanced at her, answering sowhat nervously.

"Mm." Tang You'an nodded after speaking, then sat down, crossing her legs and slowly massaging her temples.

"Not feeling well?" Song Xici's gaze traveled from Tang You'an's long legs to her profile and fingers, and she quickly asked.

"Maybe because it's been windy these past two days, I got so wind and feel a bit off," Tang You'an nodded.

"Oh..." Song Xici nodded.

Although her mind was full of what had happened at noon, since Tang You'an didn't ntion it, she didn't dare to bring it up randomly. It would be terrible if she made sothing out of nothing.

"By the way," Tang You'an released her temples and turned her head to look at her.

"Ah?" eting Tang You'an's gaze, Song Xici swallowed. She really felt like she couldn't sit still anymore. Might as well just bury herself in the ground.

"What did you buy for my parents?" Tang You'an rested her hands on her legs and asked.

"Oh... Haha, just so wine and jewelry, things they like." Song Xici wiped her sweat. Did she have to be like this? It's easy to scare soone to death!

"That's good. I don't know as much about them as you do. Can you fill

in on so things about them?" Tang You'an asked.

"Oh, sure. Listen..." Song Xici looked around, seeing that there weren't many people, then sat closer to Tang You'an and quietly told her about Tang Bingguo and Pei Qiuyue's likes and preferences.

Tang You'an listened with slightly furrowed brows, quickly morizing everything.

After a while, it was ti for them to board. So the two stood up and went to board the plane.

Tang You'an walked in front, seemingly without any abnormal feelings. Song Xici followed behind her, her tightly held heart finally relaxing a bit. Perhaps she really hadn't seen it.

When they arrived in the city where Tang You'an's parents lived, it was already past 5 PM. By the ti they left the airport and reached the Tang family ho, it was already past 6 PM.

Tang Bingguo was seen pacing back and forth in the yard, as if waiting for sothing. But when he saw Tang You'an and Song Xici, he straightened his clothes and coughed twice.

Tang Bingguo had high cheekbones and deep-set eyes, with a fierce look that gave him a very authoritative appearance. At the sa ti, Pei Qiuyue also looked like soone not to be trifled with.

However, when Tang You'an saw him, sothing in her heart was lightly touched.

Having lost both parents at a young age, she no longer rembered what her birth parents looked like. But at the mont she saw Tang Bingguo, she seed to recall sothing.

Back then during the New Year, when there were lion dances in the small town, her father would lift her high, letting her sit on his neck to watch the lively lion dance troupe. Then, she would clap her hands happily.

"You're back?" Tang Bingguo raised an eyebrow as Tang You'an and Song Xici entered the yard.

"Yes, we had so free ti today, so we ca to visit you and Mom," Tang You'an smiled as she ca back from her mories. "Dad, were you waiting for us?"

"You? Who's waiting for you? I was waiting for Xici." Tang Bingguo glanced at her.

Tang You'an heard this and didn't say much, only asked, "Dad, how have you been feeling lately? I wanted to co see you earlier, but I've been busy, so it got delayed until now."

After hearing this, Tang Bingguo looked at her again, puzzled. In the past, Tang You'an always looked at him as if she was seeing an enemy. He didn't expect her attitude to change so much today, and for a mont, he couldn't quite adapt.

"You still know to co see us?" Tang Bingguo looked at her, his brows furrowed.

Hearing this, Tang You'an looked at him and instantly understood that her original self must have had a very poor relationship with him.

"I'm sorry," Tang You'an lowered her head and said.

Tang Bingguo heard this, clasped his hands behind his back, turned his head to the side, and said nothing more.

"Ah... Dad, we brought so things for you." Seeing the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Song Xici hurriedly handed over a bag of items, breaking the tension.

"You didn't need to bring anything, just coming is enough." Tang Bingguo took the bag and said lightly, the corners of his mouth turning up slightly.

Song Xici smiled, hearing this. "It's because you like to drink, so I just bought so. If you don't like it, I wouldn't have bothered!"

"You little..." Tang Bingguo looked at her, shaking his head with a smile. "Co in quickly, Qiuyue has prepared the al."

"Alright," Tang You'an nodded, then followed Song Xici into the house.

As soon as they entered, the scent of sandalwood incense enveloped them. It was faint but pleasant.

Following Tang Bingguo to the dining table, they saw that more than ten dishes had already been laid out. Each dish looked appetizing.

At this mont, Pei Qiuyue was walking out carrying a bowl of soup. "Sit down and eat, I made everything myself."

"Mom, I'm sorry. I said I'd cook for you, but..." Tang You'an sat down and began.

"What does it matter who cooks? It's all the sa. I just want you two to be well, not like before," Pei Qiuyue said.

Hearing this, Song Xici's hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly.

"Xici, has our You'an been treating you well lately?" Pei Qiuyue asked after sitting down next to Tang Bingguo.

Hearing this, Tang You'an turned her head to look at Song Xici. Song Xici hesitated for a mont, then hurriedly shook her head. "Of course she has, she's been very good to !"

"That's good. Ah, you two really make us worry endlessly. Before, there was always news about this or that, saying you were going to fall apart..." Pei Qiuyue sighed as she spoke.

"Indeed," Tang Bingguo said. "Like a dog seeing a sheep."

"Mom, I will treat her well for a lifeti, don't worry," Tang You'an said with a smile as she picked up a piece of vegetable and put it in her bowl.

Song Xici heard this and glanced at her, then continued eating in silence. The words "a lifeti" were truly heavy for her.

"You'd better keep your word," Pei Qiuyue said. "Xici is such a good person."

"I will keep my word." At this, Tang You'an turned her head to look at Song Xici and reached out to cover Song Xici's left hand, stroking her fingers.

After hearing this, Song Xici's chewing slowed down. She didn't dare look at Tang You'an at all, nor did she reach for any more food.

Then after a while, Song Xici turned her head and looked at the shiny diamond ring on Tang You'an's finger.

"By the way, when are you planning to have children?" After asking this, Pei Qiuyue first put a chicken leg in Song Xici's bowl, then put another in Tang You'an's bowl.

"Huh?" Song Xici stared at the chicken leg for a long ti, then suddenly looked up.

Here it cos again, pressuring them about children.

"You've been married for so long now, and you're both about the right age. Once you're over thirty, pregnancy becos much harder. So I think, if you want children, you should have them sooner rather than later." Pei Qiuyue smiled gently after speaking.

"We'll talk about it in a few years. Our focus is still on our careers right now," Tang You'an spoke up.

"Yes, let's talk about it in a few years," Song Xici nodded hurriedly.

"Alright," Pei Qiuyue saw that Song Xici had expressed her opinion and couldn't say much more, so she just nodded. "Anyway, if you want to, think it over carefully."

"Mom, there's no rush, no rush," Song Xici said with a smile.

"She's not the one in a rush. She went to the temple before to pray for a child for you two," Tang Bingguo spoke up.

Tang You'an smiled hearing this, while Song Xici nearly spat out her water.

"She also asked the Buddha to bless you two to be together for a lifeti, never parting," Tang Bingguo continued. "My wish is simpler. As long as you two can live happily and safely for a lifeti, that's enough."

Song Xici heard this, looked up at them, and said softly, "Thank you."

To be honest, every ti she t the parents, whether her own or Tang You'an's, Song Xici felt a bit guilty.

Probably because they sincerely hoped for her and Tang You'an to be happy together, while she was just acting.

This feeling of lying made her quite uncomfortable. A lifeti... a lifeti. Thinking of these words, Song Xici turned her head to look at Tang You'an again.

After finishing dinner, chatting with Tang You'an's parents, and playing a few gas of chess, Tang You'an followed Song Xici to her room here.

The room had already been tidied up and looked clean and neat.

After closing the door, Song Xici's heart started pounding again.

They would be sleeping together again... But at least Tang You'an hadn't ntioned the incident from noon, so it seed that it could be forgotten.

However, just thinking about what happened last night made Song Xici bite her lower lip hard. That girl was so unpredictable, who knows what she might do tonight...

She must be going crazy. The most crucial thing was that when facing Tang You'an, her rejection button seed to be broken.

"We have clothes here too. Wait a mont, I'll go find them." Turning around, Song Xici went to open the wardrobe and started rummaging inside.

"Okay," Tang You'an nodded, then thoughtfully watched Song Xici's back.

"Here, you go shower first." Not long after, Song Xici took out pajamas, underwear, and bras from inside and turned around to hand them to Tang You'an.

Tang You'an took them and looked, smiling. "Then I'll go wash up first."

"Go ahead." Song Xici nodded quickly.

So Tang You'an picked up the clothes and entered the bathroom.

Watching the bathroom door close, Song Xici let out a breath, took out her phone, and opened her chat with ng ng: "Ah, I'm relieved. I think I don't need to worry anymore, she probably didn't see it."

The next second, ng ng replied, her tone seemingly quite disappointed: "How could she not see it?! It would be more fun if she had seen it!"

"Unbelievable, how can you hope for trouble like this? Are you still my friend?!" Song Xici asked, her face red.

"Please, I'm thinking of you! You want her to x you so badly, but you have to hold it in. That can cause problems if you do it for too long!" ng ng sent several silly expressions.

Song Xici saw this and rubbed her forehead: "It's mainly that she keeps teasing , and she's not ugly, so I... any normal person would feel a bit, you know."

"Wow, so what did she do to make you so lustful?" ng ng continued to ask.

Seeing this, Song Xici thought about what Tang You'an had done to her and felt it was too embarrassing to say, so she typed: "Nothing, stop asking."

anwhile, after finishing her shower, Tang You'an walked out wearing pajamas.

Due to her slender build, the pajamas looked loose on her, giving her a unique charm.

As soon as she ca out, Tang You'an saw Song Xici hurriedly flip her phone face down on the table. So after tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, she looked at Song Xici's face, then at the phone, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"No, nothing," Song Xici shook her head quickly. "I'm going to take a shower."

Tang You'an nodded after hearing this, then watched Song Xici walk into the bathroom.

Afterward, Tang You'an picked up a glass of water and took a few sips, then took her phone and lay down on the bed with one leg bent.

Opening a bookmarked tab, her fingertip slid across the screen. After reading for a while, Tang You'an put down her phone, raised her hand to rub her head, occasionally frowning, occasionally pressing her lips together lightly.

A while later, the bathroom door opened, and Song Xici walked out.

Seeing Tang You'an half-lying on the bed, one hand resting on her bent leg, looking quite tired, Song Xici was really worried. So finally, she walked over, sat down on the edge of the bed, and reached out to push her shoulder gently: "What's wrong, are you feeling unwell sowhere?"

"My head doesn't feel very good," Tang You'an said, opening her eyes slightly.

"Then..." Song Xici swallowed, "Shall I massage it for you?"

So Tang You'an turned her head to look at her, then nodded.

"Then sit up," Song Xici said, pressing her lips together as she looked at her.

So Tang You'an propped herself up on the bed with her hands and slowly sat up.

Then, Song Xici reached out and pressed on her temples.

But when Tang You'an looked up at her, Song Xici froze again. She really couldn't et Tang You'an's gaze, feeling as if she was being burned.

Tang You'an thought Song Xici always looked extrely beautiful after showering. Her originally fair cheeks were tinged with a slight pink, a few damp strands of hair clung to her ears and neck, along with her elegant neck line, incredibly delicate skin, and the soft curves of her body—no matter how you looked at it, it was alluring.

Rembering how Song Xici's body had trembled when she kissed her earlier, Tang You'an's throat bobbed. That feeling gave her an indescribable excitent.

"You, close your eyes," Song Xici commanded at this mont.

"Why?" Tang You'an asked.

Song Xici looked at her lips and delicate features, unable to speak. Finally, she could only say, "Are you going to listen to

or not?"

Hearing this, Tang You'an's lips curved slightly: "Of course I'll listen to you. Whatever you say, I'll do. Whatever you want, I'll give."

"Your mouth sure knows how to talk," Song Xici glanced at her.

"So..." Tang You'an pondered, looking at her.

"So, so what?" Song Xici looked at her, not understanding what she wanted to say, then turned to get so essential oil.

But at this mont, Tang You'an suddenly grasped her wrist and pulled her over, holding her in her arms with her back against her.

"Hey, you..." The mont she sat on Tang You'an's legs, Song Xici's eyes widened.

Tang You'an firmly encircled her waist, then slowly moved to her ear and whispered, "I saw the ssage you retracted at noon."

Hearing Tang You'an suddenly say this, Song Xici's face instantly turned red and hot, as if it was about to drip blood.

"Ah, wh-what ssage..." Song Xici sat on her legs, already incoherent, "I, I talked to many people at noon, I, I don't know..."

"Is that so?" Tang You'an held her waist even tighter.

Song Xici's body was burning hot, as if she had just co out of a sauna. Tang You'an really liked the faint, subtle fragrance emanating from her body.

"Can't rember? Shall I recite it for you?" Tang You'an tilted her head, looking at her reddened earlobe and neck. At the sa ti, her throat beca a bit dry. "I rember."

"You..." Song Xici listened to her increasingly ambiguous voice, tightly closed her eyes, her mind filled with the phrase "you reap what you sow" spinning around.

"You said you wanted

to fuck you," Tang You'an then spoke those words.
