"I’ve been thinking about stuff, so I’m having trouble sleeping..." After hearing his voice, Luo Mengmeng poked her little head out from under the covers, with her big, watery eyes staring right at him.
Gu Zhihan walked over, sat on the edge of the bed, and gently stroked her head with his large hand, "What are you thinking about? Tell me?"
"It’s just..." Luo Mengmeng was about to speak, but then she realized how embarrassing it would be to say such things, so she quickly shook her head, "Actually, it’s nothing, really nothing."
Otherwise, would she really have to tell him, oh, I’m actually struggling with whether or not I should give myself to you?
That’s too embarrassing!
People who don’t know would think she’s some kind of little minx!
"What exactly are you thinking about, your face is so red?" Seeing as she wasn’t speaking and her cheeks were suspiciously flushed, Gu Zhihan couldn’t help but lightly pinch her face, puzzled.
Under his persistent questioning, Luo Mengmeng’s cheeks grew even redder, and she couldn’t help but swat his hand away and burrow back under her covers, stuttering, "I said it’s nothing, what more do you want to ask!"
Seeing this, Gu Zhihan squinted his long eyes, as if he had just thought of something, and then asked with a smile, "You’re not worried about tomorrow’s adult ceremony, are you?"
While asking, he brought his face close to hers and gently blew into her ear.
"I, I’m not!" Luo Mengmeng, realizing that her little secret had been guessed by him, suddenly flared up like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on.
Seeing her vehement reaction, Gu Zhihan immediately understood, "It seems that you are indeed worried about that."
"Are you hesitating whether or not you should give yourself to me tomorrow? After all, although we are engaged, we haven’t become a true fiancé and fiancée yet..." Gu Zhihan teased her deliberately, reaching out to lightly pinch her chin and examine her little face, which was as red as an apple from embarrassment and anger.
"Ah! Gu Zhihan you’re so annoying! Get out!" Luo Mengmeng couldn’t take being teased by him any longer, so she hopped out of bed and shoved him out the door.
Then, with a "bang," she shut the door.
Outside, Gu Zhihan looked at the door that had just been closed in front of him and couldn’t help but laugh and cry.
He’ll see how he’ll punish her tomorrow!
Although he was plotting something naughty at the bottom of his heart, Gu Zhihan was outwardly concerned and knocked lightly on her door, saying, "Mengmeng, remember to go to sleep early, and don’t forget, tomorrow you have to wake up early to get your makeup and outfit done. Good night."
The voice of the young girl came from inside the room as well.
"Then I’m going home," Gu Zhihan said, and just as he was about to turn and leave, he saw Luo Dad waving at him from downstairs.
"Hanhan, come here a moment."
"Alright." Gu Zhihan nodded and then walked down the stairs to Luo Dad, looking at him with mild confusion, "Goddad, did you need something from me?"
"Yes, something." Luo Dad pondered for a moment before speaking, "Hanhan, although you and Mengmeng will come of age tomorrow, you know you’re still in your senior year of high school, facing the most important year of your life. I hope you can focus on your studies rather than... ahem, on those other matters."
"Do you understand what I’m saying?"
Gu Zhihan didn’t expect Luo Dad to discuss the matter of intimacy with him, and he felt a bit of embarrassment but nodded, "I understand."
