Dinner was quite lavish, making Gu Lingling feel a bit guilty about eating.
"Silly girl." Yang Yunhai pinched her nose and said with a smile, "Just let me know ahead next time if something like this happens, so I can accompany you."
What if something went wrong in the meantime? What if someone noticed?
"If I’m not around, call me and I’ll handle it." No matter what, she cannot be subjected to any threats.
"I understand." Gu Lingling lowered her head.
The feeling of being protected like this was truly nice.
"But isn’t it a bit awkward if we don’t explain today?" Knowing the family was worried and curious, but Yang Yunhai’s explanation of going out to play was obviously not believed by the family.
"No problem." Yang Yunhai said with a smile, "As long as you’re safe, that’s all that matters."
At the Wang Family, Wang Shuyun was also talking about this matter.
"Enough, don’t worry about young people’s affairs. As long as she’s okay, that’s fine." Zheng Xiangjun said, disdainfully, "You’ve eaten, hurry back."
"Mom, am I still your daughter, your own flesh and blood?" Wang Shuyun said lamentably, "You’re getting more annoyed with me now."
"A married daughter is like poured-out water; you’re water in my eyes now." Zheng Xiangjun didn’t bother with her further and directly told Yang Aiguo, "Take your wife away."
"Alright, Mom, we’ll be off then." Yang Aiguo said with a smile, "We’ll visit again on the weekend."
Finished speaking, he pulled Wang Shuyun, who wanted to continue talking, toward the door.
"Hey..." I still have things to say, Wang Shuyun struggled, but how could her strength compare to Yang Aiguo’s? She was practically carried out by him.
"Let go of me." Wang Shuyun struggled.
"Your mother-in-law told me to take you away." Yang Aiguo said earnestly, "Can’t let go now."
But why hasn’t he let go even after reaching home?
Wang Shuyun’s face turned red, "Yang Aiguo, release me quickly."
Being held by him, his scent enveloped her, and inexplicably, her heart raced a bit. Wang Shuyun gave his arm a hard pinch.
In the end, it didn’t hurt him much, but her hand ended up hurting.
In frustration, she stomped on his foot and hurriedly ran to her room, closing the door behind her.
Leaning against the door, clutching her rapidly beating heart, she stood there dumbfounded for quite a while before calming down.
The next morning, when Yang Aiguo woke up, he found that Wang Shuyun had already disappeared.
Usually one to sleep in, today she left early, acting as if he was going to eat her.
Sigh... If he really did, he’d accept it.
Yang Aiguo looked at the breakfast that someone loved, smiled, shook his head, took out the dishware, and ate alone.
Even the usually delicious breakfast seemed lacking in flavor without someone sitting across from him, not as tasty as before.
Relationship barely progressed and then regressed, back to square one.
Wondering when this woman would figure it out. Or maybe she was pretending not to know.
After this, Wang Shuyun didn’t return to that house for quite a while, even avoiding Yang Aiguo intentionally when they met.
And Yang Aiguo pretended not to notice.
The two seemed to have returned to the past.
Yet, things seemed a little different.
