Chapter 59

While Su Yao and Liang Chuyuan were on a video call, Guan Ting took a hot shower. By the time she entered the room, she had missed another chance to greet Liang Chuyuan.

“How come you guys are done being lovey-dovey so quickly?”

Su Yao responded cheerfully, “Because I want to spend time with you.”

Guan Ting shuddered, “Spare me, please.” She splashed some water on her face. Catching a glimpse of Su Yao happily focused on her phone, she remembered her conversation with Guan He. She cleared her throat and asked, “Yao Yao, do you like Liang Chuyuan?”

Su Yao retorted, “Isn’t that a dumb question?”

But Guan Ting pressed on, “How much do you like him?”

“You’re acting a bit weird today, Ting Ting.”

“Just tell me, I want to know.”

Guan Ting hesitated, her eyes filled with worry and pity, as if she could foresee the challenges this couple would face.

Such a turbulent fate!

Su Yao asked suspiciously, “What’s wrong with you? Why are you hemming and hawing?”

Guan Ting felt a bit defeated, “I’m just worried about your future.”

Su Yao yawned, “What’s there to worry about? It’s not even certain yet. I was just saying, who can predict the future?”

Hearing this, Guan Ting felt a glimmer of hope and calmed down a bit.

Yes, Su Yao always had a clear sense of things.

If it ever came to the point of breaking up, she probably wouldn’t do anything foolish.

The next day at work, Su Yao almost arrived late.

Before she even reached the office, she could hear Huang Wan’s laughter. With just a few words, it was clear that she had reconciled with her wealthy second-generation boyfriend.

Su Yao couldn’t help but link this to Huang Wan’s disappearance during their business trip. If this were true, she felt that Huang Wan’s relationship with Kun Jian was unbalanced and likely wouldn’t last long. But then again, they probably hadn’t thought too much about it either.

Fortunately, the rekindling of Huang Wan’s romance restored her work efficiency.

This allowed Su Yao to leave work early.

Liang Chuyuan arrived ten minutes late, waiting at the building’s entrance. [Off work so early today?]

“Yes,” she handed him her bag, smiling. “There wasn’t much to do.”

Then she asked, “How about you? How did your trip home go?”

Liang Chuyuan’s eyes flickered as he looked towards a car parked not far away.

Su Yao missed his glance and had to catch up to him, grabbing his hand, “I didn’t see what you said just now.”

Liang Chuyuan turned back, [Not great. Things are a bit tricky, but I’ve thought of a way to handle it. I’m just not sure if it will work.]

Su Yao, always considerate, believed that if someone wanted to talk, they would bring it up on their own, so she never probed too deeply.

She smiled gently, “It will definitely work.”

Liang Chuyuan touched her face meaningfully, [Thanks for your kind words.]

…

Before going to sleep that night, Liang Chuyuan needed his treatment, and Su Yao, being the best remedy, naturally had to fully cooperate.

The bathroom was slippery. After a few intense thrusts, Su Yao couldn’t keep her balance. Pressing her body against the wall was uncomfortable, and she twisted around, her eyes misty with desire. “Let’s go back to the bed.”

Liang Chuyuan didn’t respond verbally. He held her by the waist and thrust deeply a few more times, making her legs go weak. Only then did he pull out and carry her in his arms out of the bathroom.

Both of them were still wet, and as they lay on the bed, they left dark, damp spots. Su Yao’s black hair spread out, her eyes half-closed as she looked at Liang Chuyuan. “Check if my skin is broken. It feels a bit painful.”

“Painful?”

Liang Chuyuan repeated the word. Su Yao was used to his rare speech, so she wasn’t surprised and just nodded. “It feels swollen.”

Liang Chuyuan turned the bedside lamp to its brightest setting, spread her legs, and examined her carefully. It was just swollen, not broken, though it looked tender and inviting.

He shook his head, touched her, and felt the wetness.

Blushing, Su Yao whimpered, “Be gentle this time. You were too fast earlier.”

Before Liang Chuyuan could respond, she changed her tone—

“Never mind, I want to be on top today.”

“Always facing away from me, I can’t see what you’re saying.”
