Teacher, spare me and I'll call you Old Lu

  Wasn't there supposed to be a social engagement? You're back so early, aren't they usually until dawn or midnight?

  "Are you unhappy that I came back early?"

  Lu Zhou was both angry and amused, what kind of woman would be dissatisfied with her husband coming back early from a social engagement? Others would hope that their husbands wouldn't go out for social engagements, but she...

  Xu Liu didn't really mean to imply that he was unwelcome, it's just that his sudden return made her a bit flustered when she was relaxing. She picked up her bowl and sat back in front of the computer, only to find what he said to Xia Weiliang, and couldn't help but feel indignant and complain.

  "Why are you sneaking a peek at my chat records? And chatting with Weilian too!"

  The flattery of Xia Weiliang's words made her collapse, and Lu Zhou leaned against her computer desk with narrowed eyes looking at her.

  "Liuyi, what do you think of Xia Weiliang's proposal?"

  Xu Liu'er pretended not to hear his words, lowering her head to quickly eat her noodles. How did he coincidentally come back and see what Xia Wei Liang said to her? Facing her intentional foolishness, he calmly and slowly spoke out.

  "It's her saying, give me a chance to get close to you, this proposal!"

  "Oh, hehe..."

  Xu Liu Wei had no way to retreat, so she just laughed and continued eating noodles. She didn't know if she was really hungry or what, but in any case, her head almost fell into the bowl.

  Lu Zhouyu looked at her calmly, watching as she lowered her head to eat noodles, thinking about the words she had just used to respond to Xia Weiliang. She said that because she had been hurt once before, she was afraid and didn't dare love again, which pained him.

  He thought that whether he should get close to her or not, maybe he shouldn't force her to give a clear answer, as long as she no longer rejected him like before, they had already taken a big step forward, hadn't they? Just like Xia Weiliang said, it was enough for him to love her.

  He watched her eat silently for half a while, then helplessly sighed and reached out to take the noodles away from her.

  "It smells pretty good, I didn't eat much tonight and now I'm a bit hungry!"

  He finished speaking and took her chopsticks to start eating, Xu Liu was shocked.

  "What's wrong with you? Do you want to eat? I can get you another bowl..."

  He's hungry, no big deal, she can just get another bowl, why is he eating what she ate? This is too unsanitary. She doesn't know about others, but for her, it's like having a phobia of eating something that someone else has eaten.

  "Are you really going down?"

  Lu Zhou finished the remaining noodles in her bowl, then looked at her with eager eyes. He was really hungry now, and he couldn't eat much when entertaining outside, just drinking alcohol.

  "If you're hungry, I'll go get some for you!"

  Xu Liu'ou took a glance at him with his expectant eyes and suddenly felt sorry for him.

  "I actually just drank tonight and didn't eat anything!"

  He handed her a bowl and said pitifully, thinking of his weak stomach, took the bowl and turned to walk out.

  Lu Zhou stood there, a faint smile on his lips. In fact, he didn't need her to love him with all her heart and soul; as long as she could stay quietly by his side, that was enough.

  Xu Liuyang went to the kitchen and cooked another bowl of noodles. She thought of his pitiful look just now and added an extra egg for him. Since she was young, she had been helping Lian Su with household chores. Sometimes when Lian Su was ill, she still had to take care of her. So the taste of her cooking was quite good.

  Lu Zhou changed into a set of home clothes and leaned against the kitchen door, sniffing his nose.

  "It's really delicious!"

  Being able to eat the meal she made with her own hands was something he had never dared to hope for. It wasn't that he was afraid she wouldn't make it for him, but rather that he couldn't bear to let her do it. Yet, as he was eating the noodles just now, he suddenly felt very much at ease with this feeling.

  Xu Liu'ou couldn't help but walk over and gently hug her from behind, wrapping his arms around her waist. She was so thin that he didn't dare use much force, fearing that he might break her in two. Xu Liu'ou's body stiffened for a moment, then struggled again, his voice tinged with a hint of pleading.

  "Flowing water, let me hold on for a while. I feel like everything now is just a dream, and when I wake up, it will all disappear?"

  Perhaps it was the faint sadness in his tone, or perhaps it was something else, but she suddenly didn't know what to say and gave up struggling, just letting him hold her like that, both of them staring at the steaming hot noodles in front of them.

  Qin sister heard the sound in the kitchen, and hurried out to take a look. The lady ate very little at night, so she might be hungry. As a result, when she walked to the door, she saw such a warm scene: the husband gently hugged the wife from behind, and his sturdy body completely wrapped the petite wife in his arms.

  She thought of the previous Mr. obscure and yet bitter pay, couldn't help but smile and turn to leave, wishing Mr. would one day thoroughly win Mrs.'s heart, and grow old together without leaving each other.

  "Lu Zhouyue, your face is much better now, hurry up and let me go, I need to get out of here!"

  No sooner had they met than they became familiar with each other. Xu Liu hurriedly pushed him away, and Lu Zhou reluctantly let go of her.

  "Liuyi, I think we should have a good talk about how you address me!"

  She calls him by his full name all the time, and when she's angry or mocking him, she shouts "Lu Laoshi" (Teacher Lu), which really makes him feel depressed.

  "Except for calling me directly, my big"

  Besides Mr. Lu, you can also have many other titles, such as...

  He hadn't finished speaking when she turned around and walked out of the kitchen with a bowl of noodles, tossing him a sentence without any politeness.

  "Aren't you hungry? Come and eat quickly!"

  "Such a title is too unfamiliar!"

  He followed behind her and continued to speak persistently. She put a dish in front of him on the dining table, suddenly turned around and smiled at him.

  "Is it okay as long as I don't call you by your full name and address Teacher Lu?"

  She smiled and he was completely defenseless.

  "Hmm..."

  She smiled even more brightly and leaned in close to him saying

  "Then I'll just call you Old Lu from now on!"

  "Xǔ Liú Yī!"

  He gritted his teeth and reached out to grab her, but she dodged nimbly.

  He knew she wouldn't be laughing like that if something good was going to happen, but he was still charmed by her. Xǔ Liújīn chuckled and ran upstairs, who made her dislike his title, from now on she would learn from Xià Wēiqiáng and call him Old Lù too.
