After Transmigrating into a Scum Gong, the Rich Young Master Got Pregnant with My Child - Chapter 49

Chapter 49

Lu Zhaoyi: “…”

“Shall we go in?” Li Xiao asked again.

Lu Zhaoyi’s last shred of rationality snapped. He and Li Xiao went into the inner lounge. They had slept together on that bed before, and they had done other things.

But truly giving themselves to each other—this was the first time.

Lu Zhaoyi wasn’t in a hurry, but Li Xiao’s eyes were full of temptation, clearly indicating he didn’t want to wait any longer.

Lu Zhaoyi looked at the marks on his neck. Li Xiao obviously sensed his gaze.

Li Xiao smiled: “Make them deeper.”

“Okay.” Lu Zhaoyi kissed him. “Xiaoxiao…”

…

“Don’t wear it…” Li Xiao said to him, his eyes red. “Leave it inside.”

Lu Zhaoyi refused this request. Li Xiao, when his rationality was compromised, always wanted to cling to him. However, Lu Zhaoyi’s avoidance made him a bit uneasy.

But recalling that Lu Zhaoyi didn’t want children, he ultimately didn’t dwell on it.

After showering, Li Xiao lay in Lu Zhaoyi’s arms and asked playfully: “Is Young CEO Lu happy with his work day today?”

Lu Zhaoyi glared at him: “With a wife as skilled as mine, of course I’m happy.”

Li Xiao was a little embarrassed: “I’m naturally willing to learn for you.”

Later, the two of them got dressed and went out.

Lu Zhaoyi said: “You’re too sensible. There were actually no documents you needed me to handle today.”

Li Xiao said: “I handled them yesterday.”

Lu Zhaoyi looked at him with confusion: “When did that happen?”

“When you fell asleep leaning on me,” Li Xiao said. “I planned yesterday to come with you today.”

Lu Zhaoyi said: “That’s so impressive, making long-term plans.”

Li Xiao said: “I just don’t want you to work so hard.”

Lu Zhaoyi smiled: “Xiaoxiao is truly considerate.”

“Why do you say that?” Li Xiao said. “I just like you. It has nothing to do with being considerate or not.”

Lu Zhaoyi said: “Anyone else would think I have endless glory and wouldn’t realize I also have work to do.”

Li Xiao said: “Lu Zhaoyi, I can see everything you do.”

Lu Zhaoyi coughed. Li Xiao naturally realized that his thoughts had strayed elsewhere: “I’m being serious.”

“I know,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “I just thought about it wrong.”

Li Xiao’s voice rose at the end: “Mm.”

Later in the evening, the two went to the employee cafeteria to eat. Seeing them approach together, everyone consciously made way for them.

Lu Zhaoyi and Li Xiao exchanged a look and then smiled together.

After sitting down, Lu Zhaoyi asked Li Xiao: “Xiaoxiao, did we fail to achieve our goal?”

Li Xiao shook his head: “Quite a few people should have seen us.”

Lu Zhaoyi laughed out loud: “Do you really want everyone to know what we do at the company?”

“Mm,” Li Xiao said. “Public display of…”

“Time to eat,” Lu Zhaoyi interrupted. “It’s good that we’re eating dinner early, so you can go back and eat more medicinal tonic.”

Li Xiao quietly said: “Can I not eat it…”

“No,” Lu Zhaoyi was very serious. “Last time, Xiaoxiao couldn’t quite handle it. I wouldn’t dare accept your seduction again.”

Li Xiao’s face immediately flushed: “I was the one who served you.”

“Doesn’t matter,” Lu Zhaoyi said somewhat childishly. “You have to eat the medicinal tonic properly.”

As soon as Li Xiao nodded, Lu Zhaoyi said to him: “Don’t you still want a child?”

Li Xiao’s eyes widened. Lu Zhaoyi said: “Why are you looking at me like that? I was just asking. I didn’t mean anything else.”

Lu Zhaoyi saw him lower his head, a smile hanging on his face: “Xiaoxiao, don’t be too impatient.”

Li Xiao didn’t answer that and quietly started eating dinner. After a while, Lu Zhaoyi asked him: “Xiaoxiao, are you cold?”

“It’s a good thing no one is passing by us,” Li Xiao said. “That statement is practically a firing warning.”

Lu Zhaoyi said: “No one can let my Babe freeze, anyway.”

Li Xiao said: “Mm, CEO Lu is so doting.”

Lu Zhaoyi said: “It’s not doting, I just like you.”

“Is that how I usually talk?” Li Xiao asked him. “Why are you making fun of me?”

“My darling, I can naturally make fun of you however I want,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “I just want to see all your different emotions and states.”

Li Xiao asked him: “Do you have any ideas about where to hold our engagement banquet?”

Lu Zhaoyi honestly shook his head: “Xiaoxiao, just pick a place you like.”

“I have no idea, that’s why I wanted to ask your opinion,” Li Xiao said. “I always think everything looks good, and Mom and Dad won’t give me a final decision either.”

“Let me guess why our Xiaoxiao can’t come up with anything,” Lu Zhaoyi asked him. “Is it because you can only focus on thinking about me?”

“Mm,” Li Xiao said. “I can only focus on thinking about you. I have no opinion on other matters.”

Lu Zhaoyi embraced him: “My darling.”

Lu Zhaoyi knew Li Xiao had many drafts to submit. Aside from the time he spent with Lu Zhaoyi, he was either drawing or studying.

Lu Zhaoyi wasn’t an expert, but he knew Li Xiao was always seeking improvement in his own way and always had his own ideas.

Even before the location of the engagement banquet was decided, Li Xiao was already designing the brooch.

Li Xiao specifically asked about Lu Zhaoyi’s preferences, and finally drew a rose. Lu Zhaoyi’s explanation was: “It’s a conventional form of romance.”

“Such strange phrasing,” Li Xiao said. “But somehow apt?”

“You are romance itself,” Lu Zhaoyi met his gaze and said.

“If you keep looking, I won’t be able to draw,” Li Xiao said. “My attention will follow you.”

Lu Zhaoyi laughed: “Then I’ll go out and leave my darling here alone.”

“No way,” Li Xiao said. “We clearly agreed you would keep me company while I draw.”

Lu Zhaoyi thought for a moment, then said: “I never said that.”

Li Xiao immediately glared at him: “Then CEO Lu should handle work matters yourself from now on. Li Xiao is shallow and can’t help you.”

“Don’t be like that, Xiaoxiao, I’m sorry,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “I was just joking.”

“You weren’t joking,” Li Xiao said. “You just don’t like me.”

“How is that possible?” Lu Zhaoyi said. “If I don’t like you, who would I like?”

“Le Mingshuang,” Li Xiao looked at him and said.

Lu Zhaoyi said: “Xiaoxiao, what kind of irrational jealousy is this? Did someone send you strange photos again?”

“No,” Li Xiao said. “I actively contacted him.”

“Ah?” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Didn’t I tell him not to dwell on me? I told him I have a lover.”

Li Xiao said: “I don’t know about that. I gave him twice the amount of money you did and told him never to come and see you again.”

Lu Zhaoyi immediately laughed: “Xiaoxiao, how are you so adorable?”

“You actually don’t think I wasted money?” Li Xiao asked him.

“Xiaoxiao, you can handle your money however you please,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “I’ll pay you back later.”

Li Xiao shook his head: “No need.”

“That’s true,” Lu Zhaoyi joked. “A famous designer naturally wouldn’t care for my small amount of money. It looks like I can only rely on Xiaoxiao’s kindness for a living.”

“That’s fine too,” Li Xiao said. “At least it confirms you’ll never bear to leave me.”

“It works that way?” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Good thinking.”

Li Xiao shook his head: “That’s not my thinking. It must be yours.”

Lu Zhaoyi was stunned, his expression clearly saying, “How do you know?”

“I know naturally,” Li Xiao said. “You must feel that a sugar-daddy relationship is very stable, which is why you think paying money is a necessary step.”

“That’s so right,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Xiaoxiao understands me so well.”

Li Xiao said: “I worked hard to pursue you for a long time. I would never allow someone else to use the same method as me to make you…”

Li Xiao didn’t finish his sentence, and Lu Zhaoyi laughed: “Xiaoxiao, what nonsense are you talking about? You’re the one I like.”

“Mm,” Li Xiao said. “But CEO Lu still helps children who have feelings for him.”

Lu Zhaoyi blinked: “He’s only one year younger than you.”

“He’s still a child.”

Lu Zhaoyi said: “Xiaoxiao, he was heavily involved with the original protagonist in the novel. I just wanted to quickly make him give up, saving both of us trouble later.”

Li Xiao nodded: “I understand.”

“That doesn’t sound like you understand,” Lu Zhaoyi asked him. “Xiaoxiao, are you blaming me?”

“No,” Li Xiao said. “You did very well to prevent the start of any trouble. You only met him once.”

Lu Zhaoyi said: “I know what you mean, Xiaoxiao. You don’t want me to solve everything alone, do you?”

“Mm,” Li Xiao said. “Please stop trying to solve every problem and trouble behind my back, okay?”

Lu Zhaoyi hugged him and said seriously: “Okay.”

Li Xiao didn’t hold back: “I really like you.”

“Me too,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “I ask to be with Xiaoxiao forever, and for everyone to know we are in love.”

Saying this, Lu Zhaoyi suddenly felt he was contradicting himself. Quietly solving problems on one hand, and saying he wanted everyone to know they were in love on the other, was a seemingly contradictory proposition.

But Li Xiao didn’t mind: “Just don’t do things alone anymore.”

Lu Zhaoyi said: “Xiaoxiao, I understand. I will definitely consider your feelings in the future.”

“Mm,” Li Xiao said. “So, shall we do it now?”

“Huh?” Lu Zhaoyi was startled by his sudden change of topic.

“Never mind,” Li Xiao answered himself. “CEO Lu should accompany me while I draw instead.”

Lu Zhaoyi said: “Xiaoxiao, you know my skill level.”

“Mm,” Li Xiao said. “I’ll hold your hand while we draw.”

“Xiaoxiao, don’t you think I’ll be wasting your time?”

“Of course not,” Li Xiao said. “I need your participation.”

This sentence immediately ignited Lu Zhaoyi’s fighting spirit: “Okay, I promise not to draw a pig’s head this time.”

Hearing this, Li Xiao told him: “I saved that drawing.”

“No way?” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Xiaoxiao, quickly tell me you’re lying.”

“I’m not,” Li Xiao said. “If you bully me, I’ll send it out for everyone to see.”
