Things that get you hooked once you try them

  Gu Beichen took Xiaoxiao to a nearby store to pick up some things, and when they arrived at the hotel lobby, they happened to see Ye Shanshan and her mother coming out. Excited Xiaoxiao immediately ran over and greeted them sweetly, "Grandma, Xiaoxiao misses you so much."

  Yang Sulan is now smiling and the more she looks at her, the more she likes it. Being coaxed by her like this, she smiles so much that her mouth can't close, "This little mouth, always so sweet, just like your mom when she was a kid."

  The little devilish spirit proudly tilted his head and said, "Hehe, she's my mommy, of course I look like her."

  The adults were all amused by the little girl's natural performance, and passersby cast curious and puzzled glances. From a normal person's perspective, the relationship between this family of four is really unthinkable.

  These unusual glances were already familiar to Ye Shanshan and Xiao Xiao, but Yang Sulan still felt a bit uncomfortable in her heart, and she hurriedly urged her son-in-law to drive the car. "Let's go quickly, we can't keep your parents waiting for too long."

  Gu Bei Chen's observation was keen, and with one glance, he noticed the unease on his mother-in-law's face. However, he could also show understanding; after all, his daughter was only eighteen, yet she had a nearly seven-year-old granddaughter, and it wasn't easy to be calm about this matter.

  Tonight's traffic is still relatively smooth, and it took less than twenty-five minutes to leave the hotel and enter the private road leading to Gu's residence. Yang Sulan had just walked this way not long ago, and the impression was quite deep. It's just that at the time of leaving, she didn't think she would come back again.

  Mom kept staring out of the window with a somewhat strange expression. Yeshanshan probably guessed something too, "Didn't you just walk this road not long ago, mom?"

  Yang Sulan's face was filled with surprise, she didn't remember telling Shanshan to come here to find General Fang for help, how did Shanshan suddenly ask this?

  "Did you see me?" After thinking it over and over again, this is the only possibility.

  "Uh-huh." Ye Shanshan nodded frankly, "At that time, I wasn't quite sure, just thought of getting off the bus to take a look, but you had already gotten on and left."

  "Oh." Xiaoxiao also remembered, "Mom was so excited that day she almost crashed the car into a tree, just because she saw Grandma?"

  Yang Sulan suddenly fell silent, and after a while, she said in a low voice, "When I decided to come back and find you at first, I was really afraid that you had already completely forgotten me."

  Yeshan was slightly displeased, and said with a sense of justice: "How could I? You carried me for ten months, gave birth to me, and raised me through hardships. If I were to forget you, would I still be human?"

  Yang Sulan smiled with relief and held her daughter's hand, feeling a sense of comfort in her heart.

  In the depths of winter, the days were short, and by the time the four of them arrived at the entrance to the Gu family's large mansion, it was already completely dark.

  Even so, Yang Suxuan still witnessed the grand occasion of Gu's mansion.

  Mrs. Gu is a person who values face, and when her mother-in-law came to visit for the first time, she made meticulous preparations. As soon as the car entered the gate, there were guards lined up to welcome them, and after getting out of the car, Mr. and Mrs. Gu also personally came out to greet them, "Welcome, welcome, it's late at night, wasn't the traffic jammed on the road?"

  "It went very smoothly, not a hitch. Yang Sulan beamed with smiles as she approached and greeted them, casually presenting the gift that had been prepared in advance, "I know you and General Gu don't lack anything, but I still hope you'll accept this small token of goodwill."

  The old lady politely declined, "It's really too much trouble for you to come all this way and bring gifts!"

  Ye Shanshan hurried forward to help, "Mom, you'd better take it, it's my mom's first time here, can't go back empty-handed."

  Two mothers were in front of her, Ye Shanshan deliberately made a distinction, calling her mother-in-law "mom", and using a diminutive form to refer to her own mother.

  Mrs. Gu wanted to decline, but her daughter-in-law took the initiative to help her accept the gift, and she couldn't say anything else, "It's windy outside, let's go inside first."

  The house looks very big from the outside, but the interior decoration style is very simple and unpretentious, not showing any luxury at all. This style doesn't match Mrs. Gu's strong personality, but it suits General Gu's steady and firm character perfectly. With a son-in-law from such a family background, Yang Sulan really has nothing to worry about.

  After the polite small talk, dinner officially began. Although there were many dishes, each dish was not very large in quantity. As we ate and chatted for an hour, nearly ten plates were emptied.

  After dinner, Yang Sulan and her mother-in-law entered the small living room to chat, "Your family's chef is so skilled, our family's Shanshan has good luck."

  "She and Xiao Xiao just came back for the weekend to stay for two days, and they can't even eat a few meals." Old Lady Gu still had a smile on her face, but there was a hint of helplessness in her tone. If possible, she still hoped that Shan Shan and Xiao Xiao could always live at home.

  "I'm going to make some tea." Just as she entered, Ye Shanshan happened to hear her mother-in-law's words. She had come in wanting to sit and chat with them together, but hadn't expected them to be discussing this topic. After a moment's thought, she decided to withdraw for the time being.

  "Go ahead." Old Lady Gu wanted to have a private chat with her mother-in-law and didn't mind Shanshan leaving.

  Shan Shan quickly turned around and walked out the door, but the topic from earlier still needed to be continued. "Children have their own lives, as long as they're happy, that's all that matters." Yang Sulan understood the underlying meaning in her mother-in-law's words, but she was more concerned about Shan Shan's feelings. Moreover, her thoughts were completely opposite of her mother-in-law's; she felt that since Shan Shan and Bei Chen were already married, it was only natural for them to move out and live on their own.

  "That's true, but Shanshan is still in school after all, and I don't want her to be too tired." By this point, the smile on Old Lady Gu's face had also become somewhat forced.

  "You're too kind. But our Shanshan has been independent for a long time, and she can handle things at home on her own, so you don't have to worry too much. If she really can't cope, she'll tell you." Yang Sulan responded fluently, but in her heart, she was thinking about how to bring up the topic of Shanshan and Xiaoxiao going abroad with her mother-in-law without being too abrupt.

  "This is indeed true, just look at our little devil at home, this girl has been spoiled by us and becomes uncontrollable. But she's afraid of Shanshan, one word from Shanshan is more effective than ten words from us! As for how well-behaved and capable her own daughter-in-law is, Grandma knows it in her heart. It's precisely because of this that she hopes to spend more time with Shanshan."

  "They two are also considered to have a good relationship, Beichen is often not at home, with this child accompanying Shanshan, I am quite at ease. The day before yesterday, I told Shanshan to take Xiaoxiao to France for vacation during the winter break, and the little girl was excited like crazy." Although it's not the most suitable opportunity, Yang Sulan couldn't care about many things anymore, speaking out early would also allow her to be at ease earlier.

  The tone of the mother-in-law sounded light and airy, but Mrs. Gu's reaction was abnormally agitated, "When did you decide on this? Why didn't Shanshan ever mention it to me?"

  "Don't get too excited, I just made a suggestion, it's not final yet." The mother-in-law's overreaction had cooled Yang Sulan's enthusiasm by half, but she still had to maintain her composure on the surface.

  Mrs. Gu was also a worldly person, although this news was a bit unexpected, she quickly regained her composure. "The winter break coincides with the New Year, and at that time, Beichen and our family's youngest daughter will both return home. It's rare for us to gather together as a family, so it seems that your suggestion is not quite suitable, Mother?"

  "If Beichen comes back for Chinese New Year, I won't let Shanshan go abroad. I'm afraid Beichen is too busy and can't take time off. What if he can't get a holiday..."

  Mrs. Gu was anxious and didn't wait for her mother-in-law to finish speaking before interrupting, "Even if he can't take leave, we can't let him spend the New Year alone in the army. Shanshan and Xiaoxiao can apply for a family visit, Beichen has a family dormitory in the army, so there's no need to worry about food and accommodation."

  Yang Sulan's heart has completely cooled down, Shanshan had just gotten married and it was understandable that she didn't know this; but Yang Sulan had been a military wife for eleven years and had experience visiting her husband's unit in the past, so it was really not acceptable to forget this.

  Ye Shanshan was standing outside the door with a tea set, because the door was slightly ajar, and her mother-in-law's words fell into her ears without missing a single word.

  Yes, there is still such a thing as visiting relatives in this world. Even if her husband really can't take time off, she can still accompany him to spend the New Year and celebrate his birthday.

  But then, Mom will definitely be disappointed. If she had to choose between going abroad and visiting relatives, she would undoubtedly choose the latter. What would Mom think?

  "What are you doing standing at the door?" Looking at Shanshan stupidly standing at the small living room door and not entering, Gu Beichen curiously asked.

  Ye Shanshan had a guilty look on her face as she pulled her husband towards the tea room, "Speak softly, I have something to tell you."

  "What's so mysterious?" Gu Bei Chen had a completely bewildered expression, like a monk who couldn't find his head.

  "Mom just told grandma about our winter break plans and our trip abroad with Xiao Xiao, guess how grandma responded." My husband's face was full of anxiety, but someone insisted on keeping him in suspense.

  Gu Bei Chen didn't respond, only slightly twitching the corner of his lips and putting on a listening expression.

  "Even if you don't come back, I can take Xiaoxiao to the army base for a family visit," said her mother-in-law. Although it was just an offhand remark, Ye Shanshan's heart was filled with anticipation. When she was little, her mother had taken her to see her father at the army base, and she still had some memories of that trip, but she had only been four or five years old at the time, and the experience had left a very hazy impression in her mind. If possible, she really wanted to relive it again.

  Gu Bei Chen had obviously thought about visiting his relatives, but he didn't mention it to Shan Shan because he didn't want her to be too troubled. On the other hand, his mother-in-law's eager desire to spend the New Year with Shan Shan was clearly written on her face, and he also didn't want to disappoint her.

  "Why aren't you saying anything? Don't you want me to go?" With great enthusiasm, she reported the good news to him, but what she got in return was a silent response. Ye Shanshan felt deeply hurt.

  "I'm so thrilled!" The tea room was usually quiet, and at this time, there shouldn't be anyone coming or going. Gu Bei Chen couldn't contain his excitement, leaned down and kissed that slightly pouting little mouth, "I thought you'd be very troubled, didn't expect you to be so eager."

  Ye Shanshan rubbed his nose awkwardly and asked with a red face, "Why did you think I would make things difficult for you?"

  Gu Bei Chen deliberately teased her, leaning in closer with a mischievous smile on his face. "A team full of old men can't compare to the romantic atmosphere of France, and... there's also your only relative."

  "Aren't you my family?" Ye Shanshan glared at him discontentedly, then changed to a shy expression after a few seconds, whispering: "What's the use of being romantic if you're not there?"

  Only when two people who love each other are together will they feel romantic, with you by my side, even if it's just watching a group of old men rehearse and perform, I'll feel romantic; on the contrary, without you, even standing in front of the most beautiful rose garden would make me feel lost.

  Gu Bei Chen's heart was moved, he slightly lowered his head and gently kissed her eyes, "Little fool, thinking of me like this will make me feel even more guilty."

  Ye Shanshan gently lifted her head, gazing at him with a focused and deep expression. Her bright eyes sparkled like precious gems as she spoke in a soft yet firm tone: "Don't feel guilty, Mom will understand. She has family to accompany her in France, and without me, she won't be lonely either. But you're different; if I don't go with Xiaoxiao to keep you company, you'll have to spend the New Year's and your birthday alone, and I couldn't bear that."

  Although he had a thousand words to say in his heart, Gu Bei Chen couldn't utter a single word. Now, all he wanted was to hold her in his arms and quietly savor this warm and peaceful moment.

  "If I were to join the army... would people laugh at me?" Leaf Shanshan's thinking was quite a leap.

  "What's so funny? They're not even done being jealous yet." Gu Bei Chen was left speechless by her inexplicable concern, "To be honest, I'm actually a bit worried. Those young rascals have been in the military for years and rarely see women, I'm afraid they'll be so captivated by you that they won't be able to focus on training."

  Gu Beichen is indeed laughing at those who take fifty steps while he takes a hundred. Your worries are truly unnecessary!

  "How can it be that serious!" Ye Shanshan couldn't help but burst out laughing, after laughing for a while, she suddenly put on a humble expression again, "I'm not as good as you said."

  "You do!" Gu Bei Chen's tone was firm and decisive, with an unshakeable conviction. "You are the kindest and most lovable woman I have ever met. Your goodness can be felt without needing to know much about you."

  "Flattery will get you nowhere!" Ye Shanshan's classmate had been unable to resist praise since she was a child, and if praised slightly more heavily, she would become embarrassed, sometimes even blushing, then casually finding an excuse to change the subject, "Mom and them should be about done chatting, I'll go serve them tea."

  Without hesitation, Gu Bei Chen picked up the tea set on the table and said, "I'll go with you."

  I believe his mother and wife's mother have reached an agreement, he appeared with Shanshan, just in time to hear their decision.

  Ye Shanshan also thought so in her heart, let's face it together, can't escape the inevitable.

  The young couple walked into the small living room together, and the two elders had already finished discussing the main issue. They were now chatting about family matters, and judging from their expressions, the conversation earlier seemed to have gone smoothly.

  Seeing her son and daughter-in-law coming in, Old Lady Gu hurriedly raised her hand to beckon them, "Come over and sit down, I have something to talk to you about with your aunt."

  "What's wrong?" Gu Bei Chen asked with a straight face, pretending not to know.

  "It's not a big deal." Yang Su continued the conversation, "We were just talking about Chinese New Year. I have another home in France and work is busy there too. It's probably unrealistic to come back and spend the holiday with Shanshan."

  Everyone with eyes to see knew that Yang Sulan hadn't finished speaking, but Gu Beichen seized the opportunity and inserted a sentence without batting an eyelid, "During the New Year's holiday, Shanshan was on winter break, she can go to France to visit you."

  It has to be said that Gu Bei Chen is really good at handling people. Although he knew that his mother and mother-in-law had already made a decision, in order to leave a good impression on his mother-in-law, he still politely put forward his own suggestions.

  "I appreciate your kindness, this is the first year after Shanshan married into your family, she should spend it with you. It's best if you can take leave and come back, but if not, she can also go to the army to accompany you for the New Year. Your mother-in-law just said that the fifth day of the new year is your birthday, on such a special day, I think you must want Shanshan to be with you too." Yang Sulan's face always wore a warm smile, and her tone was very calm. From her expression, it seemed that she had really come to terms with it, her daughter got married, had another home, and should prioritize the current family. As parents, they should understand and support, rather than complaining with reluctance.

  Although I had expected this outcome, hearing it from Mom's own mouth still made Ye Shanshan feel a little guilty. "Mom, sorry, I won't be able to spend the New Year with you."

  "Silly child, don't apologize to me. Mom still has a home, even if you weren't here, I wouldn't feel lonely. But Beichen is different, you guys are already apart most of the time, so during New Year's, you must be together. New Year's is about reunion, being with family, that's what makes it feel like New Year's, right?" Truly a mother-daughter duo connected by blood, their innate understanding is something ordinary people can't compare to. Not only do they think alike, but the words they say are also identical.

  "Mother-in-law, you're absolutely right! Chinese New Year is all about family reunions. Having everyone together, safe and sound, is what matters most." Old Lady Gu smiled in agreement, affectionately holding her daughter-in-law's hand. "Don't be too hard on yourself, dear. There's always next time. If you can't make it for the winter break, there's still summer vacation. The summer break is longer, so we can plan ahead. You can even stay for a month if you want, and don't worry about the round-trip expenses - your father-in-law and I will take care of that."

  Gu Lao Tai also agreed readily, and promised to let her daughter visit for a month. She herself has a daughter who she rarely sees more than a few times a year, so she deeply understands the desire of her daughter's mother to spend more time with her daughter. Just now when she said that Song Song was going to visit his troops, they didn't say another word and cancelled their previous plans, so she should also make some gesture.

  "Don't worry about the round-trip expenses, just confirm the time and I'll take care of everything else." Before Shanshan could say anything, Yang Suyan hastily declined her relatives' kind intentions, saying she would pick up her own daughter to play at home, where it wouldn't cost them a dime.

  Ye Shanshan was at a loss for words and looked at her husband for help.

  Gu Bei Chen received the request for help and stood up in time, "We are all one family, there is no need to calculate money so finely. Mother-in-law should be responsible for taking Shan Shan everywhere to play, and we will pay for the round-trip transportation costs."

  Yang Sulan and Mrs. Gu looked at each other, Beichen's proposal took into account the feelings of both parties, so they couldn't say anything else.

  Ye Shanshan also nodded in agreement, "Alright, it's settled then." After saying that, she didn't forget to give Gu Beichen a worshipful glance. Hmm, no wonder he's the chief strategist, always so calm and collected, simply handsome and cool!

  Looking at his little wife's infatuated expression, Gu Bei Chen's mood was so good that he couldn't speak, and it felt even more fulfilling than being awarded the highest honor.

  Mrs. Gu urged her son and daughter-in-law to return home before 8:30. Her son would be leaving for the army tomorrow night, and tonight was supposed to be a time for the young couple to spend together, so they couldn't afford to waste all their time chatting with their elders.

  Not only that, but the old lady also wanted to let Xiaoxiao stay overnight in the old house tonight. There were some things that weren't suitable for children to hear, so she specially found an excuse that she thought was perfect: "Grandma has been having insomnia lately, how about Xiaoxiao staying over tonight to keep Grandma company and sing a lullaby for her?"

  "I don't want to pinch, I want to go home with Daddy and Mommy together, and sleep with them together." The little ghost's memory was really good, the night before her father left last time, the three of them were sleeping together, she had already taken it as a fixed arrangement.

  Following you home is one thing, but sleeping together? Old Lady Gu would never allow such a thing to happen. "This won't do! You're already in elementary school, you're a big kid, you can't sleep with Daddy and Mommy!"

  "Dad said it's okay just this once, and last time he left, I slept with them too." The little girl spoke in a completely matter-of-fact tone.

  "This time is different from last time!" Old Lady Gu was a veteran, her eyes were sharp, and she saw that her daughter-in-law was a bit different today at a glance. Looking at her careful and cautious walking posture, it's likely that she was messed up last night. It was precisely because she knew that the young couple had already become husband and wife in reality that she deliberately let Xiao Xiao stay behind, giving the newlywed couple more time to be alone together.

  But it's not easy to persuade Little Devil to nod, "What's different?"

  "Grown-ups' business, even if I tell you, you won't understand. Grandma is also thinking about the happiness of your father and mother. When parents love each other, the child's happiness can be guaranteed, don't you know? Old Lady Gu also knew that this little girl was not easy to deal with, so she could only patiently and painstakingly advise her."

  "Grandma is just like Dad and Mom, only knowing how to scold adults, but being mysterious and not saying things clearly, so annoying." Don't mention it, the little ghost is actually quite clever and remembers what Dad and Mom said last night and this morning.

  The little devil's words were sharp, and Old Lady Gu was at a loss for a moment, hesitating before speaking up to advise, "We don't talk about these things because children really can't know about them. When you grow up, you'll naturally understand. Be good, go tell your dad and mom that you want to stay with grandma tonight and won't be going back."

  "I just want to know now, Grandma is telling me, and I'll stay obediently." Xiao Xiao lives up to her reputation as a little devil, at such a young age, she's calmly negotiating conditions with Grandma.

  "This is non-negotiable, at most grandma will agree to give you a piece of mousse cake before your bath." The old lady was forced into a corner by the little devil and could only use delicious food as temptation.

  "I want three pieces, one for tonight, one for tomorrow morning, and I also want to bring one to school to eat." The little devil is making progress inch by inch.

  The old lady lost her patience to continue accompanying the little ghost, gritted her teeth, nodded, "Alright, three pieces is three pieces. You go find Daddy and Mommy first, I'll go prepare cake for you."

  "Grandma is so bad, she actually used mousse cake to lure me into telling a lie. I clearly wanted to go home with Daddy and Mommy." Little devil, isn't this the typical case of getting away with something by acting innocent?

  Gu Lao Tai was so amused by Xiao Yatou's serious expression that she couldn't help but laugh, "If you really have backbone, you can resist temptation!"

  The little devil was blocked and lost his temper, hummed proudly, and quickly ran out to find Dad and Mom to throw a tantrum.

  Xiao Xiao suddenly ran over and said that he wouldn't be going back tonight, so he would stay overnight at the old mansion. Gu Bei Chen had his reasons in mind, but Ye Shan Shan didn't understand, "Why? Dad is leaving tomorrow night, don't you want to spend more time with him?"

  "It's okay as long as mom is here, dad would definitely want you to accompany him more, right?" The little devil lightly and easily shifts the pressure onto dad.

  Gu Bei Chen smiled but did not speak, using his silent silence to give the best answer.

  "Look, Dad is smiling so happily, I didn't guess wrong, did I?" The little devil looked up with a complacent face seeking praise.

  Although feeling a little embarrassed, Ye Shanshan still obediently fulfilled her wish, "Alright, our Xiaoxiao is the most well-behaved and the most formidable, okay?"

  Having received praise, and with three pieces of mousse cake, the little devil was finally satisfied. After saying goodbye to Dad and Mom, he eagerly went to find Grandma to ask for his first piece of mousse cake.

  Just now, Old Lady Gu had arranged for Little Feng to send off the mother of the bride's family. Now it was Gu Beichen's turn to bid farewell to the two elderly people with Shan Shan.

  "Dad, Mom, we'll head back first." Having married into the Gu family for so long, Ye Shanshan still maintained her initial politeness and humility in front of her father-in-law and mother-in-law. She spoke softly and gently, and every time she left, she would respectfully bid farewell with a bow.

  This is also one of the reasons why Old Lady Gu can't help but like this daughter-in-law. A girl as old as Shanshan who is so polite is indeed rare, she should feel lucky. "Go ahead, Xiaoxiao is already taking a bath, don't call her anymore, drive carefully on the road."

  More than two months after their marriage, Gu Bei Chen and Ye Shuang Shuang finally had their first real two-person world.

  The car slowly drove out of the Gu family's mansion, but Gu Beichen suddenly turned off the engine and looked at his wife with a strange expression.

  Ye Shanshan was lost in thought with his head down, only to find that he had turned off the engine and was staring at himself with an odd gaze, leaving him a bit dazed for a moment. "What are you looking at?"

  "Tonight at home it's just you and me, think about how to spend the evening?" This question is really unnecessary, don't you already have a plan in mind?!

  "What else can we do, wash and sleep...". Hmm, sleeping is it. This word has a lot of meanings."

  After sleeping in a special way, Ye Shanshan had only one feeling -

  "I'm so tired... don't want to deal with you."

  "You sleep peacefully, I won't disturb you." Gu Bei Chen also knew he was being too greedy, but some things once started would become addictive. Although his mind thought it couldn't tire her out too much and that was enough, his body wouldn't listen to him.

  Ye Shanshan was too exhausted to respond to him and soon fell into a daze, entering dreamland.

  Still the same as last night, one was sleepy and dark, while the other had no sleep at all. After helping her clean up, Gu Bei Chen carefully pulled her into his arms, lowered his head to print a gentle goodnight kiss on her forehead, and then gazed deeply at her with an unfulfilled passion.

  He didn't know when he would have such a good sleep again, and he really couldn't bear to part with it.

  After falling asleep, Ye Shanshan seemed to be having a beautiful dream, with a smile on her face and occasionally laughing softly.

  Looking at her peaceful sleeping face, Gu Bei Chen also felt very comforted. She must have been feeling very happy to smile so sweetly in her dreams. Thinking that a large part of her happiness came from him, a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment he had never felt before arose in his heart.

  Lover in arms, he is in dreams. The greatest happiness in life is none other than this.

  The last night before leaving, Gu Bei Chen still slept for less than three hours. Nevertheless, he opened his eyes on time at six thirty. The person in his arms was still asleep.

  Perhaps due to exhaustion, the restless little woman who usually can't sleep soundly was unusually still and remained in the same position as she had fallen asleep last night.

  It had been a whole night, and she still had an enticing pink glow on her. Someone couldn't help but feel a surge of heat in their heart, and they couldn't resist leaning down to kiss her once.

  Just as someone was kissing with great relish, she suddenly bit him and it wasn't gentle either.

  Gu Beichen cried out in pain and surprise, just as Ye Shanshan took the opportunity to push him away. "Big bad egg, early in the morning, thinking of doing something bad again?"

  "Unfair......" The words were bitten out fiercely, Gu Bei Chen's speech was somewhat unclear, "Obviously you were the one who clung to me and wouldn't let go!"

  "Sly!" Ye Shanshan simply pulled all the quilts over, wrapping herself up entirely. "If you don't come closer, I'll instinctively counterattack you?"

  That's actually true, she was asleep, unless she was sleepwalking, there's no way she would have gone over there on her own!

  However, as the quilt was occupied by Ye Shanshan, some facts that were originally hidden were also presented to her without reservation. Although it was a bit embarrassing, Gu Beichen didn't think of covering it up. After all, it was all caused by her, so let her take a look, there's nothing to hide.

  "You... you..." stuttered out two words, and Ye Shanshan didn't know how to continue. In her flustered state, she could only pull the quilt over her head, and after a while, she murmured, "You... are you okay?"

  "What did you say?" Gu Bei Chen's voice was clearly suppressed and lower than usual.

  "What... what should I do now?" Waaah, I'm really tired, and I still have to go to school later, can't do it again...
