At the capital. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
The problem No. 14 Research Center was facing had finally ended for the time being, so Lu Chengzhou parted ways with He Yidu and Qin Fang at the airport.
It was currently a weekend when he returned to the Royal Garden.
Peng Yan, who was playing a game in the living room, immediately stood up and greeted Lu Chengzhou when he saw him. "Young Master Lu."
Lu Chengzhou nodded. "Where’s Gu Mang?"
"Madam is sleeping in the bedroom."
He thus headed to the bedroom while unbuttoning the top button of his shirt.
Gu Mang had just fallen asleep not too long ago when she was woken up by a kiss. She opened her bleary eyes, only to shut them again at the sight of Lu Chengzhou. "I’m sleepy."
Lu Chengzhou had been gone for over a week, but Gu Mang seemed to crave sleep even more now than before he left.
"Sleep with me," mumbled the girl, her voice slightly hoarse and gentle.
Lu Chengzhou smiled and nibbled her earlobe as he breathed into her ear. "If I had known that being pregnant would make you act so coyishly, I would’ve made you pregnant long ago."
"How much earlier do you want??" Gu Mang opened her eyes, her face devoid of expression. I’m just a freshman.
Lu Chengzhou removed his clothes and lay beside her. "I want to see if you act coy when you’re young."
Gu Mang recalled her childhood while being hugged by Lu Chengzhou. "I was always fighting, dissecting animals, and seeing blood when I was a kid. I didn’t act coy back then, nor do I now."
Lu Chengzhou placed his hand on her relatively flat belly. "Then I’ll see my daughter act coy instead. She’ll surely look exactly like you when you were a kid."
Gu Mang opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but she ultimately didn’t.
"Why is your waist so thin?" Lu Chengzhou rubbed his hand over her waist. "Why is it still so thin when you’re almost five months pregnant now?"
Gu Mang didn’t say anything.
Lu Chengzhou then buried his face in the crook of her neck, his nose filled with her scent. "Did you miss me, Gu Mang?"
Under the blanket, naughty hands began roaming all over her body.
...
That night.
Lu Chengzhou held Gu Mang’s hand and came out for dinner. Lu Yī and Peng Yan joined them at the table.
Peng Yan looked at Lu Chengzhou. "Young Master Lu, Lu Qi is asking if he can come back already."
It had been almost two weeks since Lu Qi had gone to Red Flame.
Lu Chengzhou directed his gaze to Gu Mang, who had her chin propped on her hand as she ate the prawn he had peeled for her. "Yes."
Peng Yan nodded. "Madam, then Ms. Lin..."
Gu Mang raised her exquisite eyebrows. "She won’t be back in the capital for the time being."
Feeling assured, Peng Yan immediately took out his phone. "In that case, I’ll send a text to Lu QI right away."
At the mention of Lin Shuang, Lu Chengzhou couldn’t help resist asking on He Yidu’s behalf. "Is Lin Shuang planning to get married?"
"Ah, if nothing goes wrong, they will discuss their wedding date on the sixth of next month."
Break up? I don’t even have the right to break up with her. I was a one-night stand.
