Chapter 153 Composing Poetry and Eating More Seafood to Replenish
Before the two were honest with each other, Su Yao was like a ravenous wolf.
Every day she changed her tactics to tease Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan remained calm in the face of danger and withstood the test.
But what happened?
Once they were honest, Su Yao became a paper tiger.
She shouted, "This lady is going to sleep with you!"
But when Lu Xuan opened the door wide, she'd say, "Next time, for sure!"
It made Lu Xuan not know whether to laugh or cry.
However, he never forced such things.
Letting things take their natural course was the best way.
Lu Xuan actually knew about Su Yao's hesitation.
If nothing unexpected happened.
She would be in this state for a long time to come.
But if nothing unexpected happened, something unexpected was bound to occur.
A few words from Aunt Liu.
Caused some subtle changes in Su Yao's mind.
"Come on! You can do it!"
Su Yao cheered herself on.
Then, she mustered her courage and walked downstairs.
This time she was light-footed, not deliberately trying to wake Aunt Liu.
Inside Aunt Liu's room.
Aunt Liu was asleep with her headphones on.
She didn't know what she was dreaming about, but a smile hung on her lips.
Creak—
As the wooden stairs made a slight sound.
Su Yao stopped in front of Lu Xuan's door.
Then she hesitated for a moment, a flash of determination in her eyes.
"What are you afraid of!"
She raised her hand and knocked decisively on the door.
Tap, tap, tap—
There was no response.
Su Yao pouted. "Couldn't he be asleep?"
"I finally mustered up the courage..."
She raised her hand to continue knocking.
She hesitated even longer this time.
But still, she knocked.
Tap, tap, tap—
Still no response.
"..."
Su Yao felt a little aggrieved.
But she also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She whispered, "Looks like it's fate, I'll try another day!"
She found a reason to comfort herself, then turned around decisively to go upstairs.
But as soon as she turned around, there was a 'click' behind her.
The door opened.
Su Yao froze on the spot.
She couldn't leave, and she couldn't stay.
How awkward!
Waiting online, it's urgent!
Lu Xuan didn't say anything, just leaned against the door frame, staring at Su Yao with a smile.
The heat was on in the house.
So Su Yao was wearing a silk nightgown.
Lu Xuan remembered that it seemed to be something he and Su Yao picked out together when they went shopping.
This was the first time Su Yao had worn it.
"It looks pretty good."
He nodded leisurely.
Seeing that Su Yao couldn't stand still, he said in a slightly teasing voice.
"Now that the maiden has conquered the world with her back view, why not turn around and disrupt that beauty again?"
"Who are you calling ugly!"
Su Yao couldn't help but retort immediately.
She turned around and glared at Lu Xuan.
Her expression was puffed up with anger, with both the shyness of being caught red-handed and a hint of grievance.
Lu Xuan was clearly not asleep!
Why didn't he open the door for her?
Did he dislike her?
Too hateful!
Lu Xuan was also a little helpless.
Who told him he was in the bathroom just now?
He couldn't shout out in the middle of the night, "I'm squatting, wait a minute?"
That would be too embarrassing!
Seeing that Su Yao was a little angry, Lu Xuan took two steps forward and came to Su Yao.
Then he reached out.
And cupped Su Yao's pretty face.
He said softly, "You are my beauty."
His expression was solemn, and his tone was soft.
But the strong affection inside instantly made Su Yao's cheeks turn red.
"So... so cheesy at night?"
She couldn't bother to be angry anymore.
She wanted to turn her head away from Lu Xuan's fiery gaze.
Lu Xuan stopped while he was ahead, sighing inwardly.
"This silly girl is too easy to coax."
Lu Xuan asked, "What do you like to hear? Come to my room and I'll tell you slowly."
"The bed in my room is big and soft!"
Su Yao tilted her head in confusion.
"Did you change your bed? I remember your bed wasn't very big."
"... Uh."
Lu Xuan was immediately choked.
Was he too wicked?
Then he saw the sly look in Su Yao's eyes.
He suddenly realized.
This girl was pretending to be stupid with him!
"Good fellow, you're playing me!"
"Come here!"
He wrapped his arm around Su Yao's slender waist and pulled her into his room.
"Ah!"
Only to hear Su Yao let out a delicate cry.
Then came the sound of the door closing.
This time he intended to give this girl a profound lesson!
Su Yao naturally would not sit still and wait for death, and she rose up to resist!
A great battle was about to break out!
But because both sides couldn't bear to hurt each other, they changed it to a small-scale sparring session.
Sparring, sparring...
Then it was changed to a verbal battle.
The next day.
The sun was shining brightly, dispelling a hint of chill!
The city was sealed off by heavy snow, and everything was covered in a blanket of white.
But beneath it, new life was brewing!
Winter is here, can spring be far behind?
"Hmm..."
When Lu Xuan woke up, it was already past eight in the morning.
He glanced at Su Yao next to him.
She was sleeping soundly with her eyes closed.
"You must be exhausted."
Lu Xuan smiled.
Then he got up and covered the snow-white body that had been battling all night, so that Su Yao wouldn't catch a cold.
Then he dressed and walked out of the room.
Aunt Liu was in the kitchen making breakfast.
Seeing Lu Xuan come out, she gave him a meaningful smile.
"We're having seafood tonight."
"Uh..."
Looking at Aunt Liu's smile, even a big man like Lu Xuan couldn't help but blush.
Then he scratched his head with a silly smile.
"Okay, whatever you say."
After helping Aunt Liu make breakfast, Lu Xuan wanted to wake Su Yao up.
But Aunt Liu stopped her.
"Let her sleep a little longer."
Lu Xuan blinked and nodded obediently.
After breakfast, Aunt Liu went out to buy seafood.
Lu Xuan sat in the living room and contacted Li Hao.
The New Year was over, and it was time to start working.
Although *Life Events* didn't make it to the Spring Festival holiday season, it still took advantage of the New Year's heat to promote it well.
Li Hao spent the New Year in Kyoto, with the old man.
So there were no problems with the promotion.
Of course, Lu Xuan himself wasn't idle either.
He took advantage of his own popularity from "The Ordinary Road".
And gave *Life Events* a good wave of promotion.
I believe the box office won't be disappointing when the time comes.
Lu Xuan was starting to look forward to what good things the system would reward him with.
According to his speculation.
As long as he participated and the movie performed better than expected.
Then the extra rewards would be greatly increased.
And the rewards would be better.
"I hope for more rewards in kind."
Just as Lu Xuan was pondering, the door to his room was opened.
"Are you awake?"
Lu Xuan looked over.
Su Yao was standing at the door, wearing a large shirt.
"Where's Aunt Liu?"
She poked her head out and looked around.
Lu Xuan replied, "She went out to buy groceries."
Su Yao breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
Then she looked at Lu Xuan, pointed to the clothes on her body, and waved her small fist.
Then she stomped upstairs.
But her posture was a little awkward.
On the sofa, Lu Xuan embarrassedly touched his nose.
He sighed.
"Well, looks like I have to go to the mall again."
"What a sin!"
