Rong Jingyang listened to the woman's slightly excited tone, tilted his head, and asked, "Is your aunt finished?"
Du Ruoxin nodded, "Yes, happy?"
Rong Jingyang: "—"
Woman, your face is practically blooming like a spring flower.
He pressed the brake and pulled her into his arms, his kiss a substitute for an answer.
Du Ruoxin, overwhelmed by the man's possessive and fervent embrace, almost lost her senses, "No, it won't work, I need to shower..."
She had never bathed with Rong Jingyang before.
Nor had she ever done it in the bathroom.
That... did it require any preparation... did it need...
Du Ruoxin was carried into the bathroom by the man, the spacious bathing area becoming a battlefield.
A long time later, Du Ruoxin's strength was completely drained. Like a newborn lamb, she lay exhausted in the man's arms.
Rong Jingyang was also panting, but he didn't rush to sleep.
A pair of well-defined hands tightly held the woman's soft palm, and he called out in a hoarse voice, "Du Ruoxin."
Du Ruoxin was physically and mentally exhausted, the kind where she could fall asleep instantly if she closed her eyes. But hearing her husband call her name, she pouted, "Call me wife."
Rong Jingyang, I am your wife, your one and only wife.
I don't like you calling me by my full name.
Come, be more intimate.
Rong Jingyang paused, then leaned in and whispered in her ear, "Wife."
A beautiful curve appeared on Du Ruoxin's lips, "Mmm."
Rong Jingyang: "From now on, stop taking birth control pills."
Her period had come half a month early, and he knew she had taken birth control pills again.
Du Ruoxin's heart skipped a beat—how did he know she had taken them?
But she was so sleepy, so tired, so eager to sleep.
Muttering a drowsy "Mmm," Du Ruoxin fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, a phone call woke her up.
"Ring ring ring—"
It was so insistent, it made Du Ruoxin think there was an earthquake.
She suddenly opened her eyes, realized there was no earthquake, and it was her phone ringing. She returned to the embrace of her pillow, reaching for the nightstand.
"Hello?"
"Sister Xin, I'm here, open the door."
Caroline?
Du Ruoxin's mind was a bit hazy, "Mmm?"
She really wanted to sleep, could she sleep a little longer, and talk after she woke up?
Hearing the woman's groggy voice on the other end, Caroline immediately understood, "Oh, it looks like you played poker all night?"
Pfft—
Du Ruoxin's muddled consciousness instantly cleared. What poker? She and Rong Jingyang were legally married!
No, legally cohabiting!
She rolled over and sat up. The man was no longer beside the bed, only the sound of water trickling from the bathroom could be heard.
What time is it?
There was something important today!
"Coming, coming." Du Ruoxin hastily put on one of Rong Jingyang's long t-shirts.
She opened the door.
Caroline gave the woman a big hug, "Sister Xin, did you miss me?"
Du Ruoxin pulled her lips into a smile, "Miss you, of course I missed you."
However, when her gaze fell on the man behind her friend, her eyes narrowed.
Brother Qin?
Did he come with Caroline?
They...
"Hi," Qin Yunxi greeted.
Du Ruoxin replied "hi," then remembered she was wearing Rong Jingyang's clothes and nothing underneath!
So embarrassing!
"Brother Qin, wait a moment!"
Du Ruoxin flashed behind the door, pulled Caroline in, and slammed the door shut with a bang.
The action was swift and seamless.
"What..." Before she could finish speaking, Caroline understood as she looked at her friend's expression.
She couldn't help but tease, "Did I interrupt something? Should I also excuse myself? You guys continue?"
A blush crept across Du Ruoxin's face, "It's not what you think!"
She shot her best friend a glare, then turned towards the bedroom, "I'll go change first."
Caroline: "Wait!"
Turning back to the door, she opened it just a crack, "Give me the stuff."
Qin Yunxi very nimbly handed over the bag.
Caroline took it, closed the door cleanly and directly, and stuffed the bag to Du Ruoxin, "Your couple's set, delivered to your door with free shipping."
