After Transmigrating into a Scum Gong, the Rich Young Master Got Pregnant with My Child - Chapter 50
Chapter 50
Lu Zhaoyi held him in his arms: “Xiaoxiao darling, don’t be like this.”
Li Xiao just smiled and didn’t speak, but slowly stood up and moved closer to him. Lu Zhaoyi softly called out: “Xiaoxiao…”
The smile on Li Xiao’s face grew more pronounced. He slowly leaned in and wrapped his arms around Lu Zhaoyi’s neck. Lu Zhaoyi instantly understood. He smiled just before his lips touched Li Xiao’s, and then the two exchanged a deep kiss.
When they separated, Li Xiao’s eyes were glistening with moisture, looking utterly pitiful.
Lu Zhaoyi hugged him again, then mercilessly said: “Didn’t you want to draw?”
Li Xiao said: “Okay.”
…
Initially, Li Xiao could feel that Lu Zhaoyi was indeed following his movements, but soon he sensed that something was wrong.
He turned his head and found Lu Zhaoyi staring at him.
Yet, Lu Zhaoyi acted as if nothing was wrong: “What is it?”
“What are you doing?” Li Xiao asked him.
“Looking at you,” Lu Zhaoyi replied naturally.
Li Xiao laughed out loud. He simply turned back and kissed Lu Zhaoyi.
After they parted, Lu Zhaoyi asked him: “Xiaoxiao, am I distracting you too much?”
Li Xiao shook his head: “Of course not.”
“Really?” Lu Zhaoyi was skeptical.
“No matter whether you are here or not, I always finish what I need to do,” Li Xiao added. “And I can even help you finish some of your tasks.”
Lu Zhaoyi sensed the teasing in his words: “Xiaoxiao, are you giving me a hard time?”
“No,” Li Xiao said. “I’m bragging that I can help my boyfriend with some things.”
Lu Zhaoyi placed a light kiss on his forehead: “Thank you, Xiaoxiao.”
“Shall we continue drawing?” Li Xiao looked up at him.
Lu Zhaoyi shook his head: “Xiaoxiao, I’ll just watch you.”
Li Xiao nodded.
…
After dinner, the two went to Haidi Manor. Li Xiao had already given his design drafts to the decoration company, so today’s visit was just to check on the progress.
Even though the materials chosen were high-end and environmentally friendly, both of them put on masks. Li Xiao smiled: “Why are you so nervous?”
“Xiaoxiao is my darling,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Of course I’m nervous.”
Because not much was being renovated, the interior wasn’t too difficult to navigate. Even so, Lu Zhaoyi was still very worried about Li Xiao. Li Xiao shook his head and smiled, asking him: “What are you afraid of? That I’ll get tired?”
“No,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “That you’ll be unhappy?”
“Hmm?” Li Xiao asked him. “Why would I be unhappy?”
Lu Zhaoyi said: “That my excessive worrying will affect your mood.”
“That certainly won’t happen,” Li Xiao said with a smile. “You care about me. I’m too happy to even have time to be angry.”
Lu Zhaoyi smiled: “That’s good.”
The people from the decoration company communicated with them. Li Xiao was in charge of the communication, while Lu Zhaoyi listened to their discussion.
After it ended, Lu Zhaoyi smiled: “Xiaoxiao is too amazing. You’re practically killing people with your professional charm.”
Li Xiao smiled back: “I just know a little more than you. You are more capable in other areas. Your compliment is too exaggerated.”
Lu Zhaoyi shook his head: “It’s not exaggerated, Xiaoxiao. You really are amazing. Besides, your expertise is exactly what’s needed right now.”
Li Xiao smiled and replied: “You are also very capable.”
After Li Xiao said this, Lu Zhaoyi felt he shouldn’t think too deeply about it. The more he thought, the stranger the phrase sounded.
Lu Zhaoyi reassured himself: It must be because I’ve been with my wife for too long. It has nothing to do with me.
They surveyed the entire house. Afterward, Lu Zhaoyi commented to Li Xiao: “After seeing it, I suddenly feel like we’re not in a hurry to move.”
Li Xiao asked: “This is our joint property, our matrimonial home. Why are you not in a hurry now, CEO Lu?”
Lu Zhaoyi sighed: “I see that the conditions here are not half as good as your family’s home. I’m afraid my darling will be disappointed.”
Li Xiao laughed: “You didn’t think Xizhou was bad when you lived there. Why do you suddenly think Haidi is bad now?”
Lu Zhaoyi was embarrassed: “That’s different.”
“Oh?” Li Xiao asked. “Because Xizhou was a gift from you, so you’re biased towards it?”
“Not at all…” Lu Zhaoyi spoke halfway and then stopped.
Li Xiao looked at him and said seriously: “Whatever you give me is the best.”
Lu Zhaoyi hugged him: “Xiaoxiao, with such deep affection, I don’t know how to respond.”
Li Xiao said: “Your love for me is already the best response.”
“So, are we going back to Xizhou tonight?” Lu Zhaoyi asked. “Or should we find a place to stay?”
Li Xiao said: “Let’s stay at a hotel nearby.”
“Tsk,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Playing so wild?”
“Mm,” Li Xiao said. “I brought things, didn’t I?”
“Huh?” Lu Zhaoyi finally realized what was in the suitcase Li Xiao had brought with him.
Lu Zhaoyi said: “I thought you only brought the medicinal tonic.”
Li Xiao said: “I brought that too, don’t worry, CEO Lu. But these tools are also important. You probably don’t want to switch out the things you’re used to.”
In the end, the two found a hotel near Xizhou that belonged to Yuehe. It wasn’t for any other reason; it was sudden, and neither of them had anything with them to prove their identity.
…
Lu Zhaoyi was only relieved after watching Li Xiao finish the medicinal tonic.
Li Xiao asked him: “I actually feel better. Can I not take this later…”
Before Li Xiao finished asking, Lu Zhaoyi interrupted him: “No. Your health is important.”
“Oh,” Li Xiao said. “Alright, I’ll be good. Don’t be unhappy.”
“I’m not unhappy,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Xiaoxiao, if you’re not well, I won’t be happy either.”
“I know,” Li Xiao hugged him tightly. “I know everything.”
Looking at the city’s night view from a tall building always felt different. Lu Zhaoyi was often in high places and could understand the meaning of Su Shi’s line, “The heights are unbearably cold.”
After being up high for a long time, he could only occasionally relax, but with Li Xiao by his side, he was always at ease. Even if they did nothing, just having Li Xiao next to him was enough to make Lu Zhaoyi happy.
He wouldn’t voice his affection repeatedly like Li Xiao, but he truly loved Li Xiao, and the most wonderful part of it was that Li Xiao knew.
“Xiaoxiao,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “It’s almost the end of the year.”
“Mm,” Li Xiao said. “Things at the company will get busier.”
Lu Zhaoyi said: “Xiaoxiao, why don’t you guess what I want to say?”
Li Xiao asked him: “Travel after the engagement banquet?”
“Mm,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Even though we have the marriage certificate, others don’t know, so we can collect gifts twice.”
“Hahahaha,” Li Xiao laughed. “If you try hard, you can collect gifts three times.”
Lu Zhaoyi blinked: “I haven’t been slacking off, have I?”
Li Xiao blushed: “Mm, you…”
Lu Zhaoyi didn’t force him to continue. He ruffled Li Xiao’s hair, then pulled him into his arms: “Babe.”
Li Xiao said: “Three times.”
“I don’t understand.”
After saying that, Lu Zhaoyi unbuttoned the top button of his shirt. Li Xiao understood, and immediately sat on his lap.
Their breaths quickly intertwined, followed by more.
“Let’s go to the bathroom.”
“Mmm…”
…
When Lu Zhaoyi woke up in the morning, he found Li Xiao still asleep. It was rare for Li Xiao to wake up later than him. Lu Zhaoyi placed a light kiss on his face.
Li Xiao’s appearance was inherently lovable. He looked even more gentle when sleeping. Lu Zhaoyi looked at his long eyelashes, and then further down to the red marks on his neck from the night before.
He was beautiful no matter what. Lu Zhaoyi suddenly felt very happy, but then, remembering how much he had put Li Xiao through last night, he felt a little embarrassed.
Li Xiao probably wouldn’t feel too well today.
Lu Zhaoyi didn’t move. He took out his phone and sent a message to order breakfast. He decided against going to the restaurant; it was better to have it delivered.
Lu Zhaoyi wanted to keep this Li Xiao all to himself.
By the time he finished ordering, Li Xiao had moved. Li Xiao’s hand instinctively searched for him. Lu Zhaoyi asked him: “Xiaoxiao, are you awake?”
“Mm…” Li Xiao’s voice was soft at the end, clearly indicating that Lu Zhaoyi had gone too far last night.
Lu Zhaoyi helped him sit up, then went to pour him a glass of water.
“Xiaoxiao, drink some water to soothe your throat,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “It’s my fault.”
Li Xiao shook his head. He coughed twice but still found it difficult to speak: “No.”
Lu Zhaoyi felt a pang of heartache seeing him like this: “Xiaoxiao, I went too far with you.”
Li Xiao said: “Knowing that you like me, there’s nothing to apologize for.”
At this moment, the doorbell rang. Lu Zhaoyi said: “I’ll go get breakfast.”
Li Xiao nodded: “Mm.”
Lu Zhaoyi didn’t return too quickly, but Li Xiao wasn’t in a rush.
When he came back, he brought a cup of hot milk. Lu Zhaoyi put down the water in Li Xiao’s hand and handed him the hot milk instead.
Li Xiao smiled and said to him: “I haven’t brushed my teeth yet.”
Lu Zhaoyi finally realized: “I’m sorry, Xiaoxiao.”
“It’s okay,” Li Xiao said. “Let’s go wash up together.”
“Okay.” After getting out of bed, Lu Zhaoyi instinctively tried to support Li Xiao: “Be careful.”
Seeing him so cautious, Li Xiao smiled and said: “You don’t have to be so careful. I’m fine.”
Lu Zhaoyi said: “Last night…”
“I seduced you,” Li Xiao quickly answered him. “It’s not your fault.”
Lu Zhaoyi could recall the scene from the night without closing his eyes. His Xiaoxiao was always extremely attractive, and he was even more so last night.
Perhaps for that “third gift money,” Li Xiao worked hard to lead Lu Zhaoyi into a sea of desire.
Lu Zhaoyi couldn’t resist such temptation and immediately succumbed to it with him.
While washing up, Li Xiao looked at Lu Zhaoyi with many unspoken emotions in his eyes.
Despite his confusion, Lu Zhaoyi didn’t ask.
Li Xiao knew he wouldn’t guess what he wanted to say, so he asked him: “Will what we did yesterday… result in a child?”
