After I Woke Up to Find I Had a Wife - Chapter 34
Lin You’s kiss carried no desire at all. She only kissed Fu Xinran gently, her soft, warm lips pressing against Fu Xinran’s.
Gentle love slowly surrounded Fu Xinran. Fu Xinran’s gaze flickered, and a tear suddenly rolled from the corner of her eye, falling onto Lin You’s hand.
Fu Xinran raised her head and looked at the pity and tenderness in Lin You’s eyes, but suddenly smiled. This could be considered finally seeing the moon after the clouds parted. Everything was clear now.
Lin You smiled too. She admitted that she had fallen in love with a beautiful girl. Her heart, which had never been moved before, was now thumping hard.
Their joined lips separated. When their eyes met, both were full of smiles.
It was as if pink bubbles surrounded the two of them, and even the pheromones in the room became pink bubbles circling around them.
Fu Xinran leaned against Lin You’s soft chest, listening to the thump, thump, thump of her heartbeat beside her ear. It made her feel very safe, especially safe, like a dream. She closed her eyes and really wanted to sleep. Maybe when she woke up, everything would be the same as before again.
“President Lin, Su Qingfeng, the executive president of the group’s M Country branch, has already arrived at the group. Do you have any other arrangements?” Sun Yue informed Lin You that Su Qingfeng had returned to the country.
Lin You lay on the bed, holding Fu Xinran. She paused for a moment, a thoughtful look flashing through her eyes. Finally, she said, “I understand. Go handle your work.”
“All right, President Lin.” Sun Yue hung up the phone. Sitting in the spacious office, she thought for a while, then continued working on the tasks in her hands. Since President Lin had no other instructions, she must have her own considerations.
Lin You hung up the phone. A faint smile curved her lips, and her eyes narrowed slightly like a dozing tiger, looking especially relaxed and comfortable.
After being given the suppressant, she had now entered quiet-time mode, becoming extremely Buddhist.
Her scorching gland was still emitting tea-scented pheromones. Facing the restrained, shy aura of snow, it happily wrapped around that cool cluster of scent.
Satisfied. Happy. Her heart felt warm…
After Su Qingfeng met with the old foxes inside the group, she left the Lin Group, as if she had only come to say hello, throwing a stone into the already undercurrent-filled situation.
A low-key, luxurious Maybach stopped at the entrance. Su Qingfeng lowered her head and entered the car, then instructed lightly, “Back to my house.”
The driver nodded, turned the steering wheel, and left the front of the Lin Group building.
Su Qingfeng closed her eyes and leaned back in the rear seat. Thinking that her dear niece already had a child, she felt time had truly passed quickly.
In past years, aside from the few reporting meetings each year, they had barely contacted each other.
Life abroad had not been that comfortable. If it were not for her little niece’s request, she would not have gone. After spending so many years abroad and still being single, Su Qingfeng deeply felt that she had been tricked by the Lin family’s mother and daughter pair.
But what could she do? One was her brother-in-law, and one was her precious, obedient niece. She could not win against the first, and she did not dare hit the second.
Thinking about the home she had not returned to in almost two years, Su Qingfeng felt a little troubled. She suddenly remembered that no one had gone to clean the house.
Since she had returned so suddenly, her little niece definitely would not have had time to arrange for someone to clean up.
What should she do? Did she have to stay in a hotel again? Su Qingfeng touched her chin, a flash of light passing through her eyes. She suddenly thought of someone.
The head of the Xie family, Xie Yun’an, would definitely be willing to take her in. Speaking of which, it had really been a long time since she had seen Sister Xie. A wisp of melancholy passed through Su Qingfeng’s heart.
In the end, she still passed on the plan to go find Sister Xie. After all, Sister Xie was already married. If she went there again, what would that make her? Wasn’t she just a tool for bonding heat? Su Qingfeng thought sourly.
In the end, the Maybach made a turn and headed toward Mount Li.
She still missed her little niece. Her little niece already had a baby, while she was still single. No matter how she thought about it, it was tragic. Su Qingfeng stiffly tugged the corners of her mouth.
When Fu Xinran woke up, it was already one o’clock. Lin You was still holding her tightly in her arms, her long, beautiful fingers loosely placed in front of Fu Xinran’s lower abdomen.
While Lin You was sleeping hazily, she felt someone touching her face. It was soft and ticklish. Lin You slowly opened her eyes, and her blurred vision gradually became clear.
Seeing that she was awake, Fu Xinran withdrew her hand and quietly looked into her eyes. Lin You lowered her head and smiled at her. Her fluffy head moved above Fu Xinran’s face and pressed close.
Fu Xinran held her breath and passively accepted this clumsy, stumbling kiss. When Lin You still wanted to rub toward her ear, Fu Xinran immediately reached out and pinched Lin You’s ear, forcing her to stop.
Lin You looked at her wrongedly. “What’s wrong?”
Fu Xinran’s face reddened. The thing pressing against her leg was becoming more and more obvious. She raised her hand and patted Lin You’s waist. Lin You turned her head to look at her own waist, and her body forcefully pressed forward.
Only then did she belatedly sense that something was wrong. Lin You immediately lifted herself up, stiffly holding her body as she shuffled toward the bathroom.
Fu Xinran’s eyes sparkled as she watched Lin You waddle toward the bathroom like a duck. She turned sideways, hugged the thin blanket, and watched Lin You’s back until the person closed the bathroom door. Only then did she secretly laugh.
Fu Xinran held back her laughter and rolled back and forth on the bed several times. Every time she saw Lin You like this, she found her especially cute.
She thought of something and raised her hand to touch the pheromone gland. The blocking patch on it was already new. When this person became considerate, she really was different.
Lin You could only look at the bulge with her whole face exploding red. She had once been a beautiful girl like a flower and jade, yet now she was being made to look like a starving pervert because of this.
Even if she liked Fu Xinran, she still wanted to date normally, starting from holding hands, kissing soft lips, and following such pure and beautiful steps of romance.
She did not want to go straight to the final step. Besides, Ranran was still in the early stage of pregnancy. If she truly did anything, never mind other people—her own conscience would not let her go.
Lin You covered her face. All the blood in her body rushed to her face. But dating really was so happy and sweet.
Before, she had always wanted to be Fu Xinran’s good bestie. Thinking about it now, what kind of good bestie could compare to a good wife?
So the fact that she had been so unenlightened before, single-mindedly wanting to become besties, meant her brain must have been hit by iron.
Lin You dawdled in the bathroom for half an hour before finally washing herself clean. She was also forced to experience the love of Miss Five Fingers.
She remembered that back on Earth, she did not know which female celebrity had once said that if she became a man, she must experience what jerking off felt like. Now, Lin You truly found it hard to describe.
She could not say it was comfortable, nor could she say it was uncomfortable. It was just faint and light. Lin You held back the shyness and discomfort on her face, thinking she looked normal as she walked out of the bathroom.
During the time Lin You was showering, Fu Xinran had changed into a set of comfortable clothes. It was homewear designed especially for pregnant women: a loose white T-shirt, soft forest-style pants, and simple shoes.
Fu Xinran had forcibly turned this casual outfit into a high-end luxury brand. Lin You was still wrapped in her bathrobe, her messy hair casually dried until half-damp.
The moment she saw Fu Xinran pull open the curtains and sit on the chair reading, she reflexively clamped her legs together.
It was over. So awkward.
Fu Xinran held back her laughter and looked at her lightly, but her voice was soft and delicate. “Hurry and change clothes. Auntie is here and still waiting for you to go down.”
Lin You immediately nodded, touched her still-damp hair, and returned to the bathroom, blow-drying it with a whoosh.
Lin You turned her body sideways and carefully glanced outside the bathroom. She raised her hand and guiltily smelled it, feeling that there was no smell.
This action made her so ashamed and indignant that she nearly died. Heaven knew that although she could not exactly be called a fair, rich, and beautiful girl, she was definitely a good child with a pure heart. Yet she had suddenly become bad. She was so sad!
After drying her hair, Lin You stood before the mirror, looked at her hands, then squeezed out hand soap and washed her hands seven or eight times with a red face, striving to leave not even the slightest scent behind.
Su Qingfeng waited downstairs for quite a while but still did not see the little niece who liked her the most appear. She felt a little sad.
Before long, Lin You appeared with a flushed face, wearing the same style of homewear as her niece-in-law. For a moment, Su Qingfeng stared in a daze.
How long had it been since she had seen her little niece this relaxed, wearing such simple clothes?
Nervous and shy, Lin You held Fu Xinran’s soft hand. She saw Su Qingfeng sitting on the sofa.
It was over. This was another character who had never appeared in the original novel.
Lin You screamed for the system in her heart, but the system did not respond for a long time. Several hours had already passed, and Lin You was a little worried.
Even after walking all the way to Su Qingfeng, the system still had not responded. Lin You could only brace herself and go forward.
Her mouth stretched into a stiff smile, making her look as if she did not quite welcome Su Qingfeng.
Su Qingfeng did not mind, but she still felt a little disappointed. Her little niece might still blame her a little. After all, back then, it was she who had secretly helped her sister leave the hospital and go to Country M.
This had caused Lin Zhi to hurriedly arrange matters in the group and the family before throwing everything to Lin You, who had not yet turned twenty, and chasing after her all the way to Country M.
With a cold face, Lin You dryly called, “Auntie.”
Su Qingfeng was so overjoyed that she nearly cried. Looking at her little niece through misty eyes, she answered happily, “Mm.” How long had it been since she had heard her little niece call her that?
Although afterward, Lin You had expressed that she did not blame her and had even sent her to Country M to develop the company and take care of those two people, every time they met, Youyou had become colder and colder, as if she had lost all human warmth.
It had made Su Qingfeng unable to help wondering whether her sister’s prediction had been correct.
But now it was fine. Just look at her niece-in-law’s methods. Lin You was still rather cold now, but how could someone as sharp as Su Qingfeng not sense the undercurrents surging between this young couple?
“Cough. Why did you come back early?” Lin You asked casually, as if without meaning to.
“Because…” For a moment, Su Qingfeng also did not know how to answer.
Her irresponsible brother-in-law and sister had gone to Country M for many years and had never contacted Lin You face to face.
The pitifully few times they did contact had all ended unhappily. Su Qingfeng suddenly felt that coming to Mount Li today had not been a good decision.
She really had only missed her niece too much. Her little niece used to like playing with her the most.
What even was all this? Thousands of thoughts filled Su Qingfeng’s mind, but on her face, she maintained an excited smile.
“Isn’t it because I heard that you even have a baby now?”
“Speaking of it, I’m ashamed. Your aunt has been single all these years. This time, I came back early to see whether I can find a partner in the country. Little Youyou, do you have any suitable people to introduce to your aunt?”
Su Qingfeng put away her excited smile and changed into an expression of longing.
Listening to Su Qingfeng’s words, Lin You’s brow twitched. Where was she supposed to find someone for her?
“Ding… ding… Host, new plot triggered. Please accept the new plot…”
The belated system made Lin You speechless. This reaction speed was not right.
