Si Ruohan stayed in the study for a while before returning to his room.
He remembered! Today was their wedding night. Although they had only registered their marriage, they were still married. How could he leave his girlfriend alone in her room?
After waiting for half an hour, the bathroom door finally opened, and a fragrant aroma wafted out.
Si Ruohan, leaning against the headboard, looked up at the sound and saw a fairy in a red dress emerge.
Seeing that Pei Xi’s hair was still wet, Si Ruohan stood up and led her to the dressing table, helping her sit down.
“Come, sit down, I’ll dry your hair for you.”
It was the first time Pei Xi had been served like this, and she was a little overwhelmed, wanting to do it herself.
Si Ruohan raised the hairdryer in his hand.
“No need, I’ll do it. Didn’t we agree? After marriage, we’ll treat each other like a normal couple. Isn’t it only right for a husband to help his wife dry her hair?”
Since Si Ruohan said so, Pei Xi could only go along with him. After all, she was the one enjoying it.
Pei Xi’s hair was very long, effectively covering her exposed skin.
Now, with Pei Xi sitting down, Si Ruohan, looking down at her, couldn’t help but see some beautiful scenery.
He saw that the water droplets on her hair were actually dripping down, eventually flowing into the deep valley.
The red clothes made her skin look even whiter, making Si Ruohan’s mouth dry and his throat move involuntarily.
He could barely hold the hairdryer in his hand.
No, he had to find something to talk about, otherwise, he was afraid his nose would really bleed.
Pei Xi didn’t look at Si Ruohan in the mirror; she was applying skincare products. She was now at ease; so what if he looked? It wasn’t like he hadn’t seen her
before. “Xiao Xi, you must have had a lot of crushes on you at school, right?”
Pei Xi, meeting Si Ruohan’s gaze in the mirror, continued her musings.
“No, I wasn’t very noticeable at school. Nobody really paid attention to me.”
“How could that be?”
Si Ruohan didn’t believe her. Were the people at school blind? Such a beautiful woman, and she wasn’t eye-catching? Could there be a girl prettier than Pei Xi at school?
Impossible! Si Ruohan thought he’d seen plenty of girls, but he felt that beauties like Pei Xi were rare.
Pei Xi pouted:
“Really, I’m not lying to you. I was really ugly at school. If you don’t believe me, I’ll show you my graduation photo. Nobody at school ever saw my real face.”
Si Ruohan raised an eyebrow; he seemed to understand what she meant.
“You mean… you deliberately made yourself look ugly at school?”
“Yes, you know I’m an orphan. If everyone knew what I looked like, it would only bring me trouble. So, in order to graduate safely, I had to make myself look ugly to protect myself.”
Si Ruohan smiled. So that’s how it is. He sincerely praised her:
“You’re very smart, knowing how to protect yourself. The fact that no one has noticed for so long shows that your skills are excellent. But now that I’m here, you can confidently be yourself from now on.”
Pei Xi smiled after hearing Si Ruohan’s words:
“So, you’ll be my support from now on?”
Si Ruohan’s hands didn’t stop moving. Seeing Pei Xi looking at him in the mirror, he nodded heavily.
“Of course, with me here, you don’t have to worry about being bullied anymore.”
Pei Xi’s heart beat faster. She lowered her head and didn’t speak. Si Ruohan couldn’t see her expression and didn’t know if she believed him.
After a while, Si Ruohan dried Pei Xi’s hair.
Si Ruohan pulled Pei Xi up, held her shoulders, and looked her in the eye.
“What, you don’t believe me?”
Si Ruohan leaned close, their posture ambiguous. Pei Xi’s face flushed red, and she stammered,
“No, no, I believe you, I believe you, of course I believe you.”
Si Ruohan smiled brightly, and Pei Xi was stunned. He looked so handsome when he smiled!
Seeing Pei Xi staring at him, Si Ruohan’s smile deepened, and he lowered his head to kiss the girl’s lips.
Seeing him kiss her, Pei Xi’s eyes widened in fright, and she struggled slightly.
However, she was held firmly by the man, and remembering their previous agreement, she closed her eyes.
Si Ruohan sensed her compromise, carried her to the bed, and indulged himself in her sweetness.
After an unknown amount of time, Si Ruohan stopped, and Pei Xi leaned against him, breathing deeply. Si Ruohan’s bathrobe was long gone, and Pei Xi’s skirt had fallen to her waist, revealing a large expanse of beautiful scenery.
Pei Xi pushed aga inst Si Ruohan’s chest.
“We can’t today. I’m pregnant.”
Si Ruohan buried his head in Pei Xi’s hair, his hands caressing her delicate skin, his voice hoarse as he replied,
“I know. I just wanted to collect some interest first.”
Of course he knew she was pregnant, of course he knew they couldn’t go too far right now.
Pei Xi felt a little uncomfortable and shifted, not knowing where she had touched, only to hear Si Ruohan groan.
Si Ruohan hugged Pei Xi tightly, panting heavily.
“Don’t move, Xi Xi, let me calm down.”
Si Ruohan felt like he was about to explode; those two full breasts pressed tightly against his chest only fueled his rising anger.
Yet, he still couldn’t bear to let go of the person in his arms.
Pei Xi knew Si Ruohan was enduring, preferring to suffer herself rather than hurt her, and her heart softened.
“Why do you have to make yourself suffer? You know it’s wrong, but you still insist on provoking me.” It
‘s one thing for him to suffer, but he’s making her suffer too.
…
Bright sunlight shone on the windowsill, and Pei Xi on the bed stirred, bumping into the person beside her.
Si Ruohan reached out and pulled Pei Xi into his arms, then closed his eyes.
“It’s the weekend, there’s still plenty of time, no need to get up so early, keep sleeping!”
Pei Xi said coquettishly.
“But I’m hungry~”
Pei Xi even pulled Si Ruohan’s hand to her stomach.
“The baby says it wants to eat.”
Si Ruohan touched Pei Xi’s flat stomach; she was now fully awake.
“Alright, since baby wants to eat, then of course I, as the father, have to get up.”
Si Ruohan pulled the blanket up to Pei Xi’s neck to prevent him from being tempted again and then unable to resist playing around with Pei Xi.
Pei Xi rolled her eyes at Si Ruohan, annoyed. This guy, he said he would calm down yesterday. Who knew that after taking a cold shower, he had only been lying next to her for a minute before he was hugging her and kissing her, and in the end, she had to help him.
Pei Xi moved her hand under the blanket; her hand was still sore! She couldn’t let it happen again.
Si Ruohan was satisfied yesterday, and now seeing Pei Xi glaring at him, he found it quite cute.
“I’ll go downstairs and see if Aunt Liu has made breakfast. If not, I’ll go out and buy it for you.”
Si Ruohan quickly took a shower, got dressed, and went downstairs.
Pei Xi went back to sleep without a care, feeling rather spoiled.
Aunt Liu had already prepared breakfast: homemade multigrain soy milk, and some breakfast items from a local shop, including steamed buns, wontons, and sandwiches.
These were things she often bought when she visited Si Ruohan; the shop not only had a wide variety of items but also tasted quite good.
Of course, sometimes she would also make steamed buns, dumplings, and wontons herself, storing them in the refrigerator so she could just take them out and cook them the next morning – very convenient.
But yesterday she came in a rush! She hadn’t prepared everything and didn’t have time to cook.
Yesterday, she heard the old man say that the fourth young master had a sensitive stomach, so she only prepared the ingredients for the warming multigrain soy milk; she planned to buy the rest later. Therefore, this morning they could only eat what they had bought.
When Liu Ma saw Si Ruohan come downstairs, she said,
“Oh, Fourth Young Master, you’re up! Where’s Fourth Young Mistress? Isn’t she up yet?”
“No, I’m just checking what’s available. I’ll bring it up to her later.”
Si Ruohan looked at the breakfast on the table, took out a plate, picked out some food, and planned to take it up to Pei Xi first, otherwise, the baby in her belly would rebel.
Seeing Si Ruohan carrying a plate to prepare food, Liu Ma quickly brought over the poured soy milk and placed the wontons on the tray.
“Fourth Young Master, hurry up and take it up to Fourth Young Mistress! Girls aren’t like boys; they can’t go hungry. If they get low blood sugar, it won’t be good. Hurry up and let Fourth Young Mistress eat something before going back to sleep.”
Liu Ma had seen the Fourth Young Master and Fourth Young Mistress sharing a room last night, so they must have been very tired. Especially Fourth Young Mistress, who looked so delicate and frail; she must have been exhausted by the Fourth Young Master.
Si Ruohan had no idea that Liu Ma was overthinking things again, and took the breakfast upstairs.
In the room, Pei Xi was still asleep, undisturbed by Si Ruohan’s arrival.
Worried she was too hungry, Si Ruohan sat on the edge of the bed and woke her,
“Xi Xi, Xi Xi, wake up, get up and eat.”
Pei Xi felt she had just fallen asleep when she was woken up.
Si Ruohan’s voice reached her ears.
“Get up and eat breakfast. Didn’t you say the baby was hungry?”
Pei Xi opened her eyes, looking at the smiling Si Ruohan, and sat up to look at the breakfast on the small table beside her.
“You bought breakfast so quickly?”
As Pei Xi sat up, the blanket slipped down, revealing skin covered in tiny specks of sweat.
Si Ruohan’s eyes widened; these were all his handiwork!
Pei Xi followed Si Ruohan’s gaze and looked down at herself. What she saw instantly made her explode.
“Si Ruohan! Look at you! How am I supposed to go out like this?!”
Pei Xi pulled open her clothes in front of Si Ruohan, revealing numerous marks left by him. Although she couldn’t see her neck yet, considering Si Ruohan’s actions last night, she knew there must be many marks.
Si Ruohan looked at the flustered Pei Xi, gently hugged her, and soothed her, “No, no, your clothes cover it up, no one can see. There aren’t many on your neck, they’re almost gone. I’ll get you some medicine later.” He smoothed Pei Xi’s hair and continued,
“I admit I was wrong, I’ll be more careful next time.” His wife was too delicious; he couldn’t stop eating her.
“Alright, didn’t you say you were hungry?
Aunt Liu has already prepared breakfast, get up and eat! Aunt Liu wants you to eat something, then go back to sleep. I haven’t had breakfast yet!
She just urged me to come up and bring you some. You see, in Aunt Liu’s heart, you’re more important than me.”
Pei Xi glared at Si Ruohan and got up to wash up. She was hungry and didn’t want to banter with him.
