“Mm… Gu Yu Cheng, don’t fool around.”

It was very early in the morning when Su Rui was trapped by Gu Yu Cheng on top of the sink. Her nightgown had already been reduced to a “little pitiful” under the pressure of someone’s “bullying”.

Su Rui struggled a little, but she couldn’t move at all as she was being held so tightly.

Moreover, Gu Yu Cheng’s kisses were so fervent and gentle that Su Rui was unable to withstand them.

“I still have to go to school…” Su Rui said after softly scratching the back of Gu Yu Cheng’s ear.

“In a bit,” Gu Yu Cheng said, and after a pause, added, “I’ll take you there.”

Su Rui responded somewhat helplessly, “I can’t. I have an appointment with Tang Xiao.”

Su Rui had really arranged to meet Tang Xiao at the school’s culture hall, just that their appointment was at 10 o’clock.

However, she didn’t dare to let Gu Yu Cheng continue.

She wouldn’t believe this man’s so-called “in a bit” was just a little later!

“Besides, are you not going to the office?” Su Rui pinched the side of his ear and said in a very ‘serious’ manner

Even though he was technically still on a business trip according to Gu Yu Cheng’s original schedule, he had finished his work there early.

But since he was already back, he should still go to the office.

Su Rui spent the majority of her winter break at home since she didn’t have to go to school.

During the holidays, apart from attending art classes, learning at Su Hua, and spending time with Mother Su and Mother Gu from time to time, Su Rui spent most of her time with Gu Yu Cheng.

Then, after two months of indulgence, she noticed that a certain someone seemed to have a little difficulty controlling the ‘car’^[1]!

Gu Yu Cheng frowned and said with some dissatisfaction, “Let her and Zhou Zi Yuan do their own thing.”

However, he still stopped and loosened his grip on Su Rui a little.

Hearing the “resentment” from Gu Yu Cheng’s mouth, Su Rui didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.

Tang Xiao and Zhou Zi Yuan were really their foes. Even after they got together, they would still have fought every day.

And so…

When Su Rui and Gu Yu Cheng were at the hot spring, Tang Xiao called and complained that Zhou Zi Yuan was not a good person. She even said she would take a taxi to her place overnight to continue criticising him in person.

While they (Gu Yu Cheng and Su Rui) were having a romantic dinner, Zhou Zi Yuan called to ask Gu Yu Cheng to go for a drink. In the end, they went to the bar to take the drunken Zhou Zi Yuan back.

There were numerous incidents such as these.

Thus, it was not surprising that Gu Yu Cheng was now so hostile to those two people.

“No,” Su Rui looked at Gu Yu Cheng with amusement and continued, “We are going to report to school today, and then I have to look at the course schedule for this semester.”

“En.” Gu Yu Cheng responded.

“Do you want to help me deal with it?”

“No, you can do it yourself.”

Gu Yu Cheng already had no credibility with Su Rui regarding ‘helping someone with it’. When had she not ‘help’ until…

“Okay.” With a smile, Gu Yu Cheng didn’t insist, kissed Su Rui on the lips again, and carried her down from the sink.

“Wait for me. I’ll take you there later.”

……

By the time Gu Yu Cheng dropped Su Rui off at school, Tang Xiao had already arrived.

Noticing the cold stare from Gu Yu Cheng before he left, Tang Xiao shrank her neck.

“What the heck! Your Gu Yu Cheng is looking at me with such a terrifying look. I’m not interrupting your happy occasion again, am I?” Tang Xiao asked abashedly.

“Aiyo, Tang Xiao Niu, I have realized you have improved.”

“What? I can discern your Gu Yu Cheng’s gaze?”

“No, I found that you actually know how to use the word ‘again’.” Su Rui cast a glance at Tang Xiao and said leisurely.

“Su Xiao Rui, you’re doing it on purpose!” After a pause, Tang Xiao muttered again, “Besides, I have only disturbed you guys a few times, right?”

“Just…4 or 5 times? No, I don’t think it was that many times.”

“Let’s skip this topic”, raising an eyebrow and looking at Tang Xiao, Su Rui added, “But you actually arrived so early today?”

This chick isn’t late today?

Apart from shopping, in other things, Su Rui was already used to Tang Xiao’s regular tardiness.

Today, this person had actually arrived even earlier than her.

Hearing Su Rui’s words, Tang Xiao’s face immediately became “ferocious”.

“I also wanted to have a good sleep before coming out to enjoy my last vacation time, but that bastard, Zhou Zi Yuan, actually came to knock on my door early in the morning and said that he was here to talk to my elder brother about business.”

“If he came to talk about business, why did he knock on my door?”

“Doesn’t he know we’re in the middle of a cold war?” Tang Xiao said with an irritated face.

Su Rui: I don’t know. Hearing you say that, I thought you were displaying public affection in disguise.

This was something that Su Rui just muttered in her own mind without saying anything.

But…

“What’s wrong with you guys again?” With a calm expression, Su Rui expressed a little “concern”.

Have you heard the story of The Boy Who Cried Wolf?

The more melons[2] you eat, the calmer you are.

However, Su Rui did not expect that Tang Xiao’s following reply would be, “What else can there be, that particular life is not coordinated.”

Hearing that, Su Rui almost choked.

“You really dare to say that.”

“I’m telling you the truth. I’m telling you, every time…”

“Stop,” Su Rui very quickly interrupted Tang Xiao’s “story” and said, “I’m really not curious.”

“No, I haven’t even gotten to the main point!” Tang Xiao said seriously.

Thinking that Su Rui didn’t want to hear about her (ahem) life, Tang Xiao simply skipped that part.

“I’m telling you, that bastard doesn’t pay attention at all. I haven’t had my period this month, and oh my goodness you have no idea, it scared the hell out of me at the time. I thought ‘I have won a prize^[3]’.”

“My parents still don’t know I’m dating that bastard. If I hadn’t bought a lottery ticket first and won a prize, I guess my dad would kick me right out.”

“Luckily it came back two days later…”

“False alarm?” Su Rui asked with a raised eyebrow.

“Yeah, false alarm! I went to the hospital, and the doctor said it was caused by me staying up late for a few days and having an endocrine dyscrasia.”

“And you had a cold war with Zhou Zi Yuan because of this?”

“Yes.” Tang Xiao nodded.

“That’s too sensitive of you, isn’t it?” Su Rui said with some amusement.

It’s only delayed for two days…

Su Rui said inwardly.

Suddenly thinking of something, Su Rui froze.

“How am I sensitive? You don’t know I was scared to death at that time.”

“Well, it seems a bit nerve-wracking when you think about it like that”, Tang Xiao thought about it and added, “But I’m still not scared here, I’m telling you, a maternal older cousin sister…”

“Say, don’t you find this kind of thing quite scary?”

“Hm? What did you say?”

“I am talking about my older cousin sister…” With a pause, Tang Xiao looked oddly at Su Rui, “Su Xiao Rui, have you been listening to me?”

“Sorry, just suddenly thinking about other things.”

“What are you thinking about? Thinking so intensely, my big gossip of the day didn’t even divert your attention away from it.”

As Tang Xiao said that, she abruptly felt that Su Rui’s expression was not right. She immediately asked worriedly, “Su Xiao Rui, what’s wrong? There is nothing wrong, right?”

“Nothing.”

It was just that Su Rui suddenly thought of something when Tang Xiao mentioned this topic.

Her period seemed to have also been delayed for a few days?

Originally, it was normal to delay for a week or so, so Su Rui didn’t care too much if she didn’t come at first.

However, if you add the three days after she came back, it would have been almost ten days!

It can’t be that she is…

She has no idea as she has absolutely no experience in this particular area.

If she counted backwards, it should have been the time that she and Gu Yu Cheng were at the Su family’s house during the New Year.

The two families spent New Year’s Eve together.

After that, they stayed at the Gu family’s main residence for two days and then stayed at the Su House for a few days.

On the first night at the Su family’s home, Father Su asserted ‘dominance’ on Gu Yu Cheng.

Originally, Mother Su was thinking that, when they returned to the Su Family’s house, they would naturally be staying in the same room together since the two of them were already a couple and they usually lived together.

Who would have known that Father Su, in a serious manner, said, “Rui Rui’s room is full of all these small items and a big stuffed doll, so it’s uncomfortable for both of them to sleep.”

Of course, Father Su had his own little selfishness and stubbornness.

Now that his daughter and Gu Yu Cheng are together, naturally, they had to live their own lives.

However, on his “territory”, he didn’t want Gu Yu Cheng to live in his daughter’s room before she got married!

So, in the end, Lao Su acted as the head of the family and generously gave his son-in-law the best guest room in the house, which was bright and spacious.

Su Rui didn’t know about her father’s reasons for doing so. However, she hadn’t thought about what she was going to do with Gu Yu Cheng in her own home. And since they were both usually busy, she could take advantage of the New Year holiday to have a good rest.

Therefore, Su Rui thought it was a good idea for her father to make this arrangement.

As for Gu Yu Cheng, no matter what he really thought in his heart, he had to ‘gladly’ accept it on the surface.

However, Su Rui never thought that Gu Yu Cheng would send her a WeChat message at night, asking her if she was asleep.

As a result, Su Rui had just replied ‘not yet’ when Gu Yu Cheng was already at her doorstep.

It was the same room she lived in before she got married, so how would Su Rui have condoms in her room?

She couldn’t just knock on her parents’ door in the middle of the night to borrow from them. Or ask Gu Yu Cheng to go out and buy them on a late New Year’s night, right?

So they just did the way it was.

After that, she stayed at Su Family’s house for a few days. Basically, every night was like that.

Could it be during that time?

Su Rui was secretly calculating the time in her head.

However, this was a complete knowledge gap for Su Rui, so it was a waste of time to do the math.

It was also possible that she was overthinking things.

After all, it was possible that the occasional late period was the result of a metabolic disorder, as Tang Xiao had just said.

Moreover, she doesn’t seem to have any special reaction or feel any different currently.

^[1] 收不住车(shōu bùzhù chē)- Unable to stop one’s car. The word ‘car’ is a reference from the slang, drive a car (开车[kāichē]- Start the car/drive the car. An internet slang that is a sexual innuendo/indirect way of talking about sex.) Thus, being unable to stop the car would mean that one is unable to stop doing the deed.

[2] 吃瓜(chī guā)- Eat melon. An internet slang which means the matter isn’t related to the particular reader and the reader doesn’t comment and just read or spectate the situation. They often refer themselves as 吃瓜群众(chīguāqúnzhòng)- peanut gallery/onlookers who are interested in the spectacle but don’t comment on them.

^[3] Referring to that she thought she was pregnant.
