Suddenly, her body was lifted off the ground, and her field of vision began to sway.
Just like a drowning person would grab at the straws within reach, Liu Yuan instinctively wrapped her arms around the "support" she could touch.
For example, Su Qi's neck.
What she felt was the warm touch of his skin, and she could even faintly feel the gentle pulsation of his carotid artery.
This action was completely out of instinct. By the time she realized what she had done, the heat on her cheeks shot up again.
See, the sense of shame was still there after all.
Su Qi seemed unfazed by his sister's action. With steady steps, he carried her out of the narrow kitchen.
Liu Yuan was hanging on him like a small koala pendant.
She buried her head in the crook of Su Qi's neck, and her nose was filled with his pleasant scent that made her feel both at ease and flustered.
Where was Su Qi taking her in his arms?
What was he going to do?
Countless thoughts were rampaging through her muddled brain, making her feel dizzy.
Su Qi walked through the living room, reached the sofa, and then... gently placed her on the sofa.
Liu Yuan's feet touched the soft surface of the sofa again, but she still maintained the posture of hugging Su Qi's neck and forgot to let go for a moment.
She stared blankly up at Su Qi, who was so close.
Su Qi's voice remained steady, showing no sign of emotion: "Since you want to stay, you need to have a proper identity."
Liu Yuan blinked her eyes, and her long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings.
So, was he really confessing his love to her or was it just "role - playing"?
Su Qi was also looking at her.
His eyes were so deep that it was hard to discern his emotions.
Liu Yuan felt that Su Qi didn't seem to be joking.
Su Qi didn't avert his gaze: "Is there a problem?"
Liu Yuan quickly shook her head like a rattle.
No problem!
Of course, there was no problem!
This was what she had been dreaming of... No, it was something she didn't even dare to think about!
After all, from the very beginning, it was "Iris" (Liu Yuan) who had been pursuing "I Want to Sleep" (Su Qi).
Only...
"Then... the housework..."
Liu Yuan whispered, lacking a bit of confidence.
Su Qi seemed to see through her little thoughts.
"As my girlfriend, isn't it only natural for you to take care of my daily life?"
His tone carried a natural and unarguable meaning.
Liu Yuan: "..."
It seemed... to make sense?
But...
Her little head started to get muddled again.
In novels, after the male and female protagonists established their relationship, weren't they supposed to be sweet and enjoy romantic moments?
In novels, the heroines were always held in the palm of their lovers' hands!
This idiot Su Qi...
He was so concerned about who would do the housework...
For a moment, the atmosphere suddenly fell silent.
Or perhaps it was the calm before the storm?
Who knew?
All Liu Yuan knew was that she was sitting sideways on the sofa with her two calves resting on Su Qi's legs.
This distance was too close.
The pleasant scent on Su Qi that made her feel both at ease and flustered enveloped her even more strongly.
Liu Yuan suddenly remembered a sentence she had read somewhere.
If you can smell a person's unique scent that isn't formed by external forces like perfume and find it pleasant, it might be an attraction at the genetic level.
Her cheeks started to heat up again embarrassingly.
Was it really like that?
Her little nose wrinkled involuntarily, and she took a deeper breath.
It really... smelled so good.
Naturally, this almost greedy little action didn't escape Su Qi's notice.
The faint scent on the young girl, a mixture of the fragrance of shower gel and an indescribable scent that was uniquely hers, wafted into his nose in strands.
Especially her charming face, fair and tinged with a faint pink glow, under the gentle illumination of the living - room lights, unconsciously exuded an invisible charm, making Su Qi's Adam's apple roll slightly involuntarily.
In this quiet environment where you could hear a pin drop, this sound was particularly prominent.
On the contrary, Liu Yuan's eyes lit up.
This discovery made her... a little proud.
She also somehow got a bit bolder.
She swayed her calves more vigorously, making a slight sound.
It was just like a cat showing affection and soliciting attention from its owner.
The living room was extremely quiet, with only the gentle interweaving of their breathing sounds.
Liu Yuan felt a bit uncomfortable under Su Qi's gaze, but like someone who refused to admit defeat, she even straightened her posture slightly.
Although she didn't have much in that regard, she couldn't lose the momentum.
She could clearly feel that Su Qi's body seemed to stiffen for a moment.
Su Qi finally made a move.
He reached out his hand.
And gently pressed down on her swaying calves.
His warm palm covered the area above her ankle, exerting an undeniable force.
Liu Yuan's movement froze instantly.
"Don't move around."
Liu Yuan: "..."
This big idiot Su Qi!
The atmosphere had reached this point.
Couldn't he understand what she meant without her having to say it out loud?
Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"

lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms.
