It was already embarrassing for his little wife to initiate the intimate acts.
Hence, Captain Lu decided to take over. With that, the couple ended up kissing across the table. It gradually became more and more heated.
“Alright, alright.” Gu Yan stopped the kiss. She looked at Lu Ye who was almost over the table.
“There is still food on the table.”
“Wifey…” Lu Ye clearly wasn’t satisfied yet. He sighed and sat down to pour himself another cup of wine.
“Wifey, you’re too naughty. I couldn’t put up any defenses against you.”
“I didn’t tell you to defend though,” Gu Yan teased back.
She felt her lips were a bit numb. Lu Ye used too much force.
Gu Yan didn’t know how to express what she thought anymore.
“Ye, your cooking is really delectable…”
“I’ll cook for you for the rest of your life then!” Lu Ye suddenly gulped some wine and looked at Gu Yan. He declared genuinely, “Wifey, after you get admitted into the First Empire Academy, we’ll register our marriage. How about it?”
Lu Ye truly didn’t want to wait anymore.
While he was out on his recent mission, he could still focus on the task at hand. However, upon returning, the thought of his lonely wife spending New Year alone occupied his mind.
As a result, he did his best to return as quickly as possible.
“Okay.” Gu Yan looked genuinely at Lu Ye. In truth, she didn’t want to wait too long either.
After she gets into the First Empire Academy, she will find some time to soften Mrs. Lu’s attitude.
They took their sweet time to finish the meal. When they were done, it was already two o’clock in the afternoon.
Lu Ye sent Gu Yan away so she could keep studying while he cleaned the dishes and returned the tray to the dining hall.
Gu Yan ate too much and didn’t feel comfortable sitting down. Hence, she walked around the room while holding her book.
The weather was fair today. Although the fireworks left some residue, they solidified the spirit of New Year even more.
Gu Yan stood at the door and watched as Lu Ye returned. From a distance, he smiled vibrantly.
Gu Yan grinned.
This sort of life was the best.
‘Ye, it’s really good to have you by my side.’
These few days, Lu Ye stayed with Gu Yan. They didn’t need to visit anyone for the holiday.
Gu Yan had to prepare for her exam, so she spent most of her time studying.
Lu Ye took charge of all the housework. He cooked every meal in the kitchen and brought it back to Gu Yan.
Gu Yan felt this was too bothersome for him.
“Ye, we can eat whatever the kitchen has. It’s too troublesome for you to cook all the time.”
“How can it be troublesome to cook for my wife?” Lu Ye shook his head. “Just focus on studying. According to some, the exam will commence in March. There isn’t much time left. Just accomplish the practice questions, and I’ll help you check over them.”
“Mhm, sure.” Gu Yan nodded but added, “Ye, call back home.”
He didn’t return for New Year. He should at least make a call.
“I’ve already done that.” Lu Ye smiled with his eyes. “Wifey, you’re really good. My family will definitely like you.”
