After Transmigrating into a Scum Gong, the Rich Young Master Got Pregnant with My Child - Chapter 14

Chapter 14

After Lu Zhaoyi finished the meeting, he saw Li Xiao resting his head on his hand, watching him. Seeing his expression, Lu Zhaoyi asked, “Are you finished drawing?”

“Yep,” Li Xiao affirmed with a nod, then added, “President Lu looks so handsome when you’re working seriously.”

“Stop that,” Lu Zhaoyi said with a laugh. “Who do you learn all this from every day?”

Li Xiao blinked his foxy eyes and asked him, “Do words that come from the heart need to be learned before they can be spoken?”

“You really are…” Lu Zhaoyi laughed while rubbing Li Xiao’s hair. “A little fox.”

Lu Zhaoyi closed his laptop and sighed: “I have to go to work tomorrow. I really don’t want to go.”

Li Xiao turned to look at him: “Didn’t President Lu promise earlier that you’d take me?”

“I did,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “If you regret it, I…”

Li Xiao stood up and walked over to him, then kissed him on the cheek. Lu Zhaoyi simply wrapped his arm around Li Xiao’s neck, and they exchanged a deep kiss.

After they separated, Lu Zhaoyi smiled and said, “I’ll consider tomorrow as accompanying you too.”

Li Xiao said, “Hey, can you count it that way?”

Lu Zhaoyi laughed: “Even though you’re accompanying me, I still want to take advantage of you verbally.”

The corners of Li Xiao’s mouth lifted, and he pointed a finger at his own lips: “Didn’t President Lu already take advantage just now?”

“I forgot,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “But you reminded me, and now I remember.”

When Lu Zhaoyi and Li Xiao were packing their luggage together, he realized that the medicine box had been brought exactly as it was taken—unused. He shook his head with a smile.

He really couldn’t do anything about this little ancestor, Li Xiao. Fortunately, his complexion was better after they returned. Otherwise, he would definitely make him take the medicine! He’d have to take it even if he was unhappy!

“President Lu,” Li Xiao noticed his expression and asked, “What are you smiling about?”

“Medicine,” Lu Zhaoyi answered instinctively, without a second thought.

“Ah?” Li Xiao said. “Didn’t I obediently listen to you? I didn’t miss a single medicated meal, and I ate the one Uncle Lu made today too. Why do I still have to take medicine?”

Seeing his flurry of words and the grievance on his face, Lu Zhaoyi laughed: “I’m not making you take it. I just thought of the way you take medicine, which is why I smiled.”

“You bully me,” Li Xiao turned his head away. “I’m ignoring you.”

“Fine,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Don’t come looking for me to sleep later.”

“Hmm?” Li Xiao said. “President Lu is going to sleep? The packing is finished anyway, I’ll go wash up now.”

Lu Zhaoyi didn’t reply. Whatever you mean by “sleep,” it’s best if you’re willing to go to bed early and get up early.

Wait a minute, the one who stays up late and wakes up early seems to be me!

After Lu Zhaoyi left the room, he saw Li Xiao sitting on the living room sofa. He asked him why he wasn’t asleep yet. Li Xiao said, “I wanted to wait for you.”

“Go in,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “I’m going to wash up now.”

Li Xiao nodded obediently: “Okay.”

When Lu Zhaoyi came out, he saw Li Xiao drawing on his tablet, and a sense of pride inexplicably welled up in his heart.

If I were like the scum gong, Li Xiao wouldn’t have time to draw!

“You look really good when you’re working seriously,” Lu Zhaoyi said.

“Hey, President Lu, why does that sound a little familiar?”

Lu Zhaoyi said, “It’s just the truth. Anyone can say it.”

“That’s true,” Li Xiao knew he was mimicking him. He smiled and said, “Thank you, President Lu.”

Lu Zhaoyi went into the bathroom and felt that living here was still the most comfortable.

I’m living with Li Xiao in both places, but my mood is different. It must be influenced by the residence. I definitely don’t have any other feelings for Li Xiao! None!

There was a fixed hairdryer in the bathroom. After washing his hair, Lu Zhaoyi quickly wiped the water off and started blow-drying it, but Li Xiao came out of the room when he heard the hairdryer’s noise.

Seeing him come out, Lu Zhaoyi turned off the hairdryer. The noise of the dryer wasn’t small, and Lu Zhaoyi was afraid he wouldn’t hear Li Xiao’s voice.

Li Xiao spoke: “President Lu, let’s go to the bedroom. I’ll help you dry your hair.”

Lu Zhaoyi, with a towel draped around his neck, followed Li Xiao into the second bedroom. Although the room was usually unoccupied, it was kept very clean. Lu Zhaoyi silently appreciated that his money was well-spent.

Li Xiao asked Lu Zhaoyi to sit down, then went to get the hairdryer, preparing to dry his hair for him.

Lu Zhaoyi usually wore a three-seven split layered cut. His hair was a bit long now, but Li Xiao didn’t comment. He very seriously helped Lu Zhaoyi dry his hair.

Lu Zhaoyi thought: He is certainly good at taking care of people.

Li Xiao turned off the hairdryer when the hair was about sixty or seventy percent dry. He told Lu Zhaoyi, “President Lu, it’s done. You can let it air dry naturally now.”

“Thank you for your trouble,” Lu Zhaoyi took the hairdryer from his hand and put it back where he found it.

After putting it away, Lu Zhaoyi said one more time: “Thank you.”

“You’re too polite. This is what I should do.”

Li Xiao had a smile on his face, but Lu Zhaoyi couldn’t be happy.

What does he mean ‘should’? Why does Li Xiao think that being good to me is what he ‘should’ do?

At this moment, Li Xiao said, “President Lu, your hair smells so nice.”

“Your hair is the same scent,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “We use the same shampoo.”

“I don’t remember. I only recall it now that President Lu reminded me.”

“Hmm, why does that sound a bit familiar?” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Xiaoxiao, who did you learn that from?”

Li Xiao didn’t answer his question, instead asking, “President Lu, can you call me that again?”

Call him what again? Lu Zhaoyi quickly ran through what he had just said in his mind, then tentatively said, “Xiaoxiao?”

“Mhm,” Li Xiao smiled. “President Lu.”

“You like that name?” Lu Zhaoyi joked, “I thought you’d prefer Ancestor.”

“How could that be…” Li Xiao said. “When President Lu calls me Xiaoxiao, I feel like I’m not so far away from you anymore.”

“You were never far away,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “I’m right here in front of you. No other distance matters.”

Lu Zhaoyi truly felt this way. Thinking about it carefully, Li Xiao still maintained this poor person persona.

Lu Zhaoyi said, “Xiaoxiao, come here.”

Hearing this, Li Xiao walked over to him. Lu Zhaoyi wrapped his arms around his neck, then lowered his head and kissed him. This kiss carried a sense of comfort. After the kiss, Lu Zhaoyi said, “Are we close?”

Li Xiao laughed: “Indeed. President Lu is skilled at distorting the meaning of other people’s words.”

“Mhm,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “That seems acceptable too. As long as you’re happy hearing it.”

“Hey, so President Lu thinks that way,” Li Xiao said. “I am truly flattered.”

“What else surprises you?” Lu Zhaoyi immediately smiled. “Tell me about it all. I’m very curious.”

Although Lu Zhaoyi’s words sounded like a joke, Lu Zhaoyi knew that the scum gong Li Xiao envisioned would be closer to the original host, which is why he asked such a question.

“I originally thought President Lu would be very difficult to approach. After all, President Lu has Yuehe, and with Yuehe, you could walk sideways,” Li Xiao said. “That you’re so easy to approach is surprising enough for me.”

“Xiaoxiao, I told you a few days ago, I’m only 23 years old. How difficult could I be to approach? Also, I really don’t walk sideways,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “You probably noticed when you helped me dry my hair that I still have quite a lot of hair left.”

Li Xiao was delighted: “I also never expected President Lu to be so good at joking.”

“You flatter me,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “I occasionally watch stand-up comedy.”

“Hey, is President Lu’s humor because you watch shows?”

“No,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “This is an innate ability.” And also the ability to swear, and having a bad temper—it’s just that I haven’t shown it to you.

“Hahaha,” Li Xiao said. “You are completely different from what I imagined.”

“Then which one do you prefer?”
