My Soft AI Boyfriend Turned into a Rough Man—and Kisses Me Until I Am Pregnant - Chapter 23

Lu Wang took the dress back to the room, having specifically instructed Qiao Wen not to choose a white one. After all, his little beauty was on her period, and if it stained the dress, she’d only feel embarrassed again.

Xu Xiaoguai was peeking out to look at Lu Wang when, unexpectedly, the man suddenly returned. The girl instinctively took a few steps back, her gaze shifting to his hands, where she spotted a pink dress.

Her eyes lingered for a moment. She knew this dress was meant for her. But the two of them had been together almost the entire time, and the only time they were apart was when Lu Wang went to buy her sanitary pads. So where did this dress come from?

Had he arranged for someone to deliver it without her noticing, or had it been with him all along? First pajamas, now a dress…

Lu Wang had no idea what was going through Xu Xiaoguai’s mind at that moment. He handed her the dress. “Change into it.”

He was confident in his taste, it was the latest style of the season. Due to the rush, he’d asked Qiao Wen to pick something up for his little beauty. If she liked it, he could always have a designer create custom pieces for her later.

But to his surprise, his little beauty stubbornly shook her head. “I’m fine wearing my own clothes. You should take this dress back, Mr. Lu.”

Lu Wang frowned slightly. First, she refused the dress he’d given her, and now she was calling him “Mr. Lu.” Was his little beauty trying to rebel?

“Change into it,” he repeated, stepping closer. “These clothes are old. Wear the new ones, okay?” His tone was domineering, leaving no room for refusal.

It wasn’t that Lu Wang disliked Xu Xiaoguai’s old clothes, he simply wanted his little beauty to have the best. He had the means, and there was no reason for her to make do with faded, worn-out clothes.

“No,” Xu Xiaoguai replied, unusually defiant.

Was this dress originally meant for another woman? Had he just given it to her because she happened to be here? Xu Xiaoguai wanted no part of it.

She’d rather wear her own old clothes than accept something he’d prepared for someone else. If that were the case, what did that make her?

Lu Wang advanced step by step, and before she realized it, Xu Xiaoguai stumbled backward and fell onto the bed. “Do you want me to change you into it myself?” he asked, and it sounded like he genuinely intended to do so.

Tears welled up in the girl’s eyes. “I said no…” In her struggle, her clothes became crumpled.

Lu Wang took a deep breath, set the dress aside, and spoke more sternly. “Why won’t you change?”

Pouting, Xu Xiaoguai muttered softly, “I don’t like it.”

Lu Wang pondered for a moment. That didn’t make sense. He’d seen the photos she’d sent him, her usual sleepwear at home was cute and cartoonish. He’d also collected pictures of her and noticed she tended to wear simple, understated styles, which was why he’d chosen a minimalist dress in a youthful shade of pink.

“Then what kind of dress do you like?” he asked patiently. He figured that if his little beauty was going to live here, he’d need to buy her plenty of clothes.

Xu Xiaoguai didn’t respond. She turned her head away. “Let’s just go eat. I don’t want to change into a dress.”

Lu Wang sensed something was off. This little thing was usually so timid, so why was she refusing to wear the dress no matter what he said? It was strange.

Even if Lu Wang was clueless about a girl’s thoughts, he could still sense that something was off.

For a moment, he didn’t know how to handle it, but he believed that if there was something to say, it should be said directly. This little thing loved to be stubborn and indirect.

If there was really a conflict, wouldn’t it hurt their feelings?

No way. It had taken so much effort to get close to her, he couldn’t let anything damage that.

Lu Wang tossed the dress directly into the trash. “If you don’t like it, then don’t wear it. But you have to tell me why you don’t like it.”

Xu Xiaoguai’s gaze fell on the trash can, her lips pressed tightly together.

It wasn’t that she disliked the dress. She just felt that if it had been prepared for another woman, she absolutely wouldn’t wear it.

But she hadn’t expected Lu Wang to throw it into the trash so decisively.

That dress…

Probably cost almost as much as her living expenses for an entire year.

Xu Xiaoguai lowered her eyes. “I’m sorry…”

Before she could finish, Lu Wang cut her off, punishing her with a bite on her pretty lips.

After releasing her, he spoke in a commanding tone:

“Xu Xiaoguai, I’m telling you for the last time. If you call me ‘Mr. Lu’ again…”

Lu Wang glanced toward the bedroom door. “See that big refrigerator in the kitchen? It’s empty.”

Although Xu Xiaoguai knew Lu Wang was deliberately trying to scare her, she still shrank her shoulders slightly.

Really…

How could there be a man with such a sharp tongue?

“Call me ‘husband.’”

The thought of Lu Wang having brought other women here made it even harder for her to say it.

“I won’t call you ‘Mr. Lu’ anymore,” she said, biting her lip, which felt a bit swollen.

He spoke so fiercely, and even his kisses were intense.

“Do you really like me?” Xu Xiaoguai mustered the courage to ask. “Why do you have women’s clothes here? Whether it’s the pajamas you gave me this morning or this dress…”

She sighed, her voice growing softer. “Lu Wang, I know you’re rich, and I know we’re not on the same level. I don’t… I don’t want to invest my feelings only to be abandoned. I’ve never really been in love before. If you’ve slept with other women… maybe we shouldn’t see each other anymore.”

Xu Xiaoguai finally managed to say everything in one go, something she hadn’t dared to do before.

But if she didn’t speak up, she would always be suspicious about this.

Rather than staying confused, it was better to clarify things.

Even if… even if Lu Wang ended up disliking her.

Xu Xiaoguai lifted her head and met Lu Wang’s gaze.

His deep eyes, initially calm, grew increasingly unsettled as he listened.

Not see each other anymore?

No way!

Besides, when had he ever slept with another woman?

This was the first time his little beauty had spoken to him so coldly, all because of someone who didn’t even exist.

Was she misunderstanding?

More likely, she was jealous.

The thought of his little beauty being jealous over him made Lu Wang unable to suppress a smile.

But when his eyes met Xu Xiaoguai’s hurt expression, he reined in his emotions and took a deep breath.

“I prepared these clothes for you in advance, just so you could misunderstand and think I have other women?”

Lu Wang stared at Xu Xiaoguai. “You little heartless thing, all the clothes are in your size. This is my first time kissing a woman today. If I don’t explain, are you going to start imagining your husband sleeping with another woman?”

Xu Xiaoguai froze. Ignoring the suggestive remark Lu Wang had just made, she blurted out without thinking, “Are you saying… those clothes were specially prepared for me?”

Her gaze drifted back to the trash can, and her clear almond-shaped eyes welled up with tears. It was all because she had overthought things…

If it weren’t for her, Lu Wang wouldn’t have thrown the clothes he had specially prepared for her into the trash can.

Xu Xiaoguai couldn’t help but feel overwhelmingly guilty. Without a second thought, she walked over to the trash can, crouched down, and with red-rimmed eyes, retrieved the dress from inside.

This was the first time… someone had ever given her a dress…
