"Then you eat first; I'm going for a shower." Lu Liang frowned, feeling a layer of invisible grease on his face and arms that made him uncomfortable. "Go take a shower, I'll wait for you." Su Wanyu smiled sweetly, sitting obediently at the dining table, her calves excitedly swinging under the table as she often sniffed, showing a blissful expression, "It smells so good~" At that moment, she was the happiest girl in the world, having a boyfriend who was capable, talented, and could cook—simply 120 points. "If you're hungry, go ahead and eat." Lu Liang couldn't help but chuckle. Su Wanyu shook her head, quickly pushing his back, "Hurry up; if you delay any longer, the food will really get cold." "Do you have any clothes for me to change into?" Lu Liang had shouted from the bathroom halfway through his shower, suddenly remembering that Su Wanyu wasn't Zhang Qian and might not have prepared any spare clothes for him. Perhaps not even pajamas. f Su Wanyu, blushing, stood at the door and replied, "Seems like there aren't any." "What should we do?" Lu Liang teased with a laugh, "Should I just pull the curtains and walk out?" Searᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Don't, don't, I'll think of something." Su Wanyu rummaged through her things and finally found a garment suitable for Lu Liang to wear: "Open a crack, and I'll pass it through." Lu Liang wore a black robe with a white collar and blue shoulders, which looked somewhat like pajamas, "What's this for?" "My academic gown." Su Wanyu pursed her lips, holding back a smile. She noticed that Lu Liang, freshly showered, had damp hair that made him look a bit soft and cute, and somewhat obedient. Lu Liang sauntered into the living room, "Remember to buy a few more sets of clothes for me; I might stay here for a few days." Su Wanyu replied with an 'oh,' her cheeks flushed as she silently went to the bathroom to place the worn clothes in the washer-dryer combo. Lu Liang turned off the room lights and pulled out candles he had prepared earlier, "Does this set a mood?" Su Wanyu hummed affirmatively, the orange candlelight making her cheeks appear even redder. "Want a drink?" Lu Liang walked over to the refrigerator and took out a few bottles of chilled beer. Although it was a candlelit dinner, he wasn't fond of wine but preferred beer, so he didn't care about those details. Su Wanyu hesitated for a moment, her words almost breaking the atmosphere, "I'll just have a little." "There's not much alcohol in beer." Lu Liang joked as he filled two glasses, suddenly feeling a bit like the Big Bad Wolf trying to lure Little Red Riding Hood. Su Wanyu chuckled nervously, not sure if it was from nervousness or because she had a high tolerance for alcohol, but before Lu Liang could even toast, her glass was already empty. Su Wanyu burped, her apple-cheeked face turning even redder, to which Lu Liang said, "You can hold your liquor, huh?" "Really, I can't handle it; one glass and I'm done." Su Wanyu mumbled in response, repeatedly shaking her head. "Let's eat, don't let it get cold." Lu Liang chuckled, taking her modesty into account. However, a mere ten minutes later, he felt something was off with Su Wanyu. She said nothing, just buried her head and gulped down her soup. He asked a question, and she would answer, but the delay between them seemed to grow. Lu Liang frowned and felt uneasy, turned on the light, and was startled, "Are you allergic to alcohol?" Su Wanyu looked like a boiled crab, her cheeks, neck, and arms all flushed red. "It's not an allergy, just a low tolerance," Su Wanyu replied with a bit of dizziness, but her awareness was still sharp. She also talked about times she had drunk with classmates in the past; every time was the same, even with just one sip, she turned this red. "That is an allergy." Lu Liang looked helpless and had no choice but to help her back to room to rest while calling his cousin to go to the pharmacy for some medication. "I really am not allergic~" Su Wanyu stubbornly denied being allergic. She insisted repeatedly that it was only a little dizziness and some redness on her skin, with no nausea or itching or other allergy symptoms. "Alright, alright, let's just say you're not allergic. Still, rest for a while," Lu Liang responded with a laugh, treating her like coaxing a child. Su Wanyu was tipsy and suddenly held up three fingers, "I'll nap for three hours, please don't go, okay?" "You were awake, and I was still here," Lu Liang said tenderly, holding Su Wanyu so she could rest on his abdomen. "I will recover very soon," Su Wanyu squinted, a sweet smile appearing on her lips with her tongue peeking out slightly. Gradually, she closed her eyes, her breathing evened out, and her long eyelashes quivered with each breath. "Your alcohol tolerance is really poor," Lu Liang couldn't help but laugh, fiddling with her slightly chubby cheeks out of boredom. Before seven, he tried to sleep but couldn't. He could only play with his phone while keeping an eye on her changes. She seemed to know her body well. An hour later, her complexion gradually lightened. Two hours later, she had returned to normal. Two and a half hours later, she woke up. Su Wanyu opened her hazy eyes and looked up to see Lu Liang watching her, which made her giggle endlessly, "I told you, I recover very quickly." "Amazing, it's like it's programmed," Lu Liang marveled, though he hadn't been without his doubts. But having witnessed the whole process, it didn't seem fake at all, especially the change in complexion which couldn't be faked. Lu Liang smiled and asked, "So, are you all better now?" "Not entirely, there are usually some aftereffects." Su Wanyu looked pitifully, pointing to her forehead, "Even a light shake hurts, I need to take it slow for it to get better." "Should you get up now then?" asked Lu Liang. "Why?" "My legs are numb." Su Wanyu giggled, "Thanks, no wonder I slept so comfortably, woke up half an hour earlier than expected." Lu Liang poked her head a bit annoyed, and Su Wanyu immediately held her head groaning, "Don't touch, it really hurts~" After a while, Lu Liang limped out of the bedroom, suddenly understanding the feeling of Su Wanyu's headache. "One with a headache, one with numb legs, we really are a match," Su Wanyu supported him, giggling stupidly. Seeing Lu Liang about to poke her forehead again, she quickly slipped away, "I'll go check, your clothes should be dry." Amused and slightly annoyed, Lu Liang suddenly heard a faint rumbling sound and instinctively touched his abdomen. After all, he had only eaten a few bites of dinner, since Su Wanyu had collapsed, and he hadn't had much of his meal either. It turned out it wasn't his stomach, Su Wanyu, from behind the corner of the wall, sheepishly said, "I think I'm a bit hungry." Lu Liang couldn't help but laugh and deeply sighed, deciding to reheat the food on the table. "Delicious, almost better than what my dad makes~" Su Wanyu complemented Lu Liang as she ate, praising the food to the skies. Knowing it was flattery, Lu Liang was still very happy, after all, the cook loves to hear such words. After dinner, the two nestled on the couch, watching a variety show until almost midnight. Su Wanyu was distracted, "Aren't you going back yet?" "I have told Shiyu to go home and rest, he will come to pick me up in the morning," said Lu Liang with a mischievous smile. Startled, Su Wanyu darted from Lu Liang's arms, rushing into the bedroom barefooted, "Your room's bedding is all new, and it's all washed, I'm off to sleep, goodnight, Makabaka~" Lu Liang was left laughing in astonishment, but waited a long time without hearing the sound of the door locking. Clearly, she was leaving him a choice. Beastly? Or worse than a beast? Lu Liang lit a cigarette, the corners of his mouth lifting. It seemed like a multiple-choice question, but it was indeed singular. It was all about making their relationship closer — a good thing without any need for hesitation. Lu Liang walked to Su Wanyu's bedroom door, gently turned the handle, and easily opened the door. He saw Su Wanyu wrapped in the blanket, facing away from the door, seemingly asleep. Lu Liang lifted a corner of the blanket, felt Su Wanyu shivering, then wrapped his arms around her waist, soothing her. Their bodies pressed together, as if hearing each other's heartbeats, they stayed silent for a long time until she was no longer afraid. "I will take care of you for a lifetime." "Mm~" A very soft reply.
