My Soft AI Boyfriend Turned into a Rough Man—and Kisses Me Until I Am Pregnant - Chapter 39

The consequence of Little Beauty’s initiative was that Lu Wang spent over half an hour in the bathroom taking a cold shower alone.

When Xu Xiaoguai saw Lu Wang suddenly get up and head to the bathroom, she was a bit puzzled.

But she also knew what was going on, the distance between them just now had been… too close.

So, she understood.

Blushing, she left the bedroom and went to the guest bathroom to use the toilet.

When she came out, she noticed Lu Wang still hadn’t emerged from the bathroom. She rubbed her flushed cheeks.

Alright, alright, she couldn’t keep thinking about it.

It was all Lu Wang’s fault for filling her head with such thoughts.

This wasn’t good.

It was gradually heading in a dangerous direction.

Ahhh!

How could she have taken the initiative to kiss Lu Wang just now?

Indeed, the saying “beauty leads people astray” applies to both men and women.

This was way too embarrassing.

Xu Xiaoguai sat alone in the living room. Seeing that Lu Wang hadn’t come out for a while, she thought that neither of them had eaten dinner yet.

She actually knew how to cook some simple home-style dishes.

Would it be okay if she checked his fridge?

Xu Xiaoguai considered looking to see what ingredients were inside and then preparing dinner.

She wondered if the great CEO Lu would dislike her cooking.

Since Lu Wang was so wealthy, would his fridge be filled with expensive items?

Her curiosity grew. When she opened the fridge, she found it packed to the brim…

with coffee.

Well…

That made sense.

Lu Wang definitely didn’t know how to cook, and he didn’t have a housekeeper here.

Did he eat out every day?

Just then, footsteps sounded behind her. Xu Xiaoguai quickly closed the fridge door, her movements as swift as a thief’s.

“You… you’re done with your shower?”

Even though both of them knew Lu Wang hadn’t just gone to take a simple shower, there was no need to point it out.

“Mm, what are you doing?”

Lu Wang glanced at her hand still resting on the fridge and couldn’t help but curl his lips. “Already starting to explore your husband’s place? What’s missing in the fridge? What do you usually like to eat?”

“Nothing’s missing.”

Xu Xiaoguai replied straightforwardly, “Because the fridge is already full.”

Lu Wang paused for a moment. “What’s inside?”

Frowning, he opened the fridge and saw the coffee he had bought earlier.

Lu Wang explained to the girl, “Since I’m usually at the company and don’t eat at home, I didn’t stock any food. I drink coffee in the mornings.”

Xu Xiaoguai pursed her lips, her expression obedient as she looked at Lu Wang. “Mm… Is it good for your health to only drink coffee in the morning?”

She glanced at the coffee in the fridge. “Besides, it doesn’t feel like a home at all this way.”

Lu Wang hadn’t expected Xu Xiaoguai to say that.

His wife was concerned about him!

Before this, he had always been busy with work. To him, the apartment was just a place to live—nothing special.

Maybe it was because he was a man and didn’t pay much attention to such things.

But ever since Little Beauty mentioned it, Lu Wang felt that this place couldn’t remain a cold, impersonal residence anymore. It had to become a temporary home for him and Little Beauty.

Lu Wang tilted his head slightly.

Why did the thought of it bring him a sense of satisfaction?

Lu Wang’s family could be considered quite happy. He never experienced the gender bias that Xu Xiaoguai faced in her household, so he never lacked a sense of security, nor did he need validation from women to boost his self-esteem.

He had his own career and had always maintained a clean reputation.

His concept of family was rather vague, as he never felt the need for one in the past.

But now, things were different.

He wished he could marry his little beauty in the next second and make her his Mrs. Lu.

This wasn’t a spur-of-the-moment impulse for Lu Wang.

To put it more precisely, no one had ever stirred such an impulse in him before, such an urgent desire to build a home with her.

If, in the future, he could come home from work every day and see his little beauty sitting on the sofa, legs crossed, whether she was playing on her phone or eating fruit, and then watch her run over barefoot to give him a big hug the moment he walked in…

Lu Wang couldn’t suppress the smile tugging at his lips.

Hmm, then he’d scold her sternly for not wearing shoes properly and, as punishment, give her a fierce kiss.

Perhaps nothing in the world could be happier than that.

“Lu Wang?”

“Are you listening?”

His little beauty’s voice snapped Lu Wang out of his reverie about the future.

He knew that if the version of himself from a month ago could see him now, he’d think he’d lost his mind.

Even now, Lu Wang felt like he was going crazy.

“Sweetheart, let’s throw all this coffee away.”

With that, Lu Wang opened the refrigerator door and started to take out the coffee.

“Wait, why are you throwing it all away? That’s such a waste.”

Xu Xiaoguai recognized the brand of coffee, it was expensive. Even though it was bottled, each cup cost over a hundred yuan.

And the coffee was perfectly fine. Why throw it out?

“There’s no room in the fridge for the things you want, and I don’t really drink this coffee anyway.”

Lu Wang answered her question seriously.

“I didn’t really have anything specific in mind.”

She averted her gaze slightly. “I just thought since we haven’t eaten yet, and it’s too late to go out, I’d check what’s in the fridge. I can cook a little, and I was going to make dinner, but since there’s nothing, forget it.”

Hearing this, Lu Wang frowned.

When had he even put this coffee in here? If not for these bottles, he could have enjoyed a meal cooked by his little beauty.

Annoyed, Lu Wang felt like tossing all the coffee into the side room and tearing it apart.

“Sweetheart, won’t cooking tire you out?”

Though Lu Wang really wanted to eat a meal prepared by his little beauty, he was also worried she might get exhausted.

Her hands were so lovely, how could they be used for cooking?

Such beautiful hands were meant for touching his abs.

Xu Xiaoguai shook her head and said slowly, “It’s fine. Since middle school, my parents were often too busy to cook for me and my brother, so I’d make meals myself. I’m just afraid you might not like what I make.”

But the truth wasn’t entirely like that.

Back then, her parents were indeed busy, but when she came home from school at noon, they were usually there.

Yet her mother wouldn’t cook during her lunch break. She’d get home at 11 and have to leave by 11:30.

But her mother wouldn’t start cooking until noon.

Because her younger brother, still in elementary school, got out at 12:30.

So, during those middle school years, Xu Xiaoguai mostly ended up making herself something simple to eat.

Aside from the meals her mom prepared in the morning and evening, she never got lunch at home. Growing up, she had rarely even tasted much meat, her younger brother loved it, so her parents always gave him the lion’s share.

She didn’t think to mention any of this to Lu Wang. It was all in the past, and she didn’t want him to feel sorry for her.

But just hearing what Xu Xiaoguai had said moments earlier, Lu Wang’s heart already ached unbearably. He could picture it clearly: his little beauty, so small back then, treated differently at home, making her own lunch all alone.

The man felt as if his heart were being squeezed.
Not anymore, he thought. From now on, I’ll make sure my little beauty eats her fill every single day.

“Baby, nothing like that will ever happen again. If you hate them, your husband will make sure their breakfast shop goes out of business, anything to make you happy…”

“No, no!” Xu Xiaoguai grabbed his arm. “No matter what, they’re still my parents, Lu Wang. Please don’t do anything bad to them.”

Lu Wang stared at her for a few seconds.
How could someone so kind-hearted ever be treated unfairly?

“Alright, your husband will listen to you.”
He glanced at the time. “I’ll call the supermarket to have them deliver what we need. Just write down what you want and send it to me.”

It looked like they’d need to buy another fridge, otherwise, his little beauty wouldn’t have anywhere to keep her snacks.
Tomorrow, he’d have Qiao Wen buy everything she could possibly want. Now that she was living with him, she would never lack for anything again!

“It’s still early,” Xu Xiaoguai said softly. “Why don’t we go to the supermarket ourselves?”

“Want to go shopping, baby?”
Lu Wang thought it over. If they went together, it’d be just him and his little beauty.
He could carry lots of bags, show her just how strong he was.
She’d definitely be impressed.

“Okay.”
Lu Wang closed the fridge door. “Your husband will take you to the supermarket.”
