Chapter 727: Not One for Fancy Words
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the throes of passion, he matched her fervor, his efforts eliciting satisfied moans from her. This brought him a sense of equilibrium. Even though Gu Zi had once ardently pursued Gong Zhan, it was he, Su Shen, who had the privilege of possessing her. By this measure, Gong Zhan was the loser. And how could Gu Zi’s current initiative be any less than her past pursuit of Gong Zhan?
With a sudden shudder, Su Shen rolled over, pulling Gu Zi into his arms and pressing her beneath him. He strove to please her, whispering in her ear, “Gu Zi, let me take care of you now…”
As noon approached, Gu Zi was too exhausted to rise from bed.
Su Shen, fully dressed, planted a kiss on her forehead before heading off to prepare their meal.
Gu Zi watched him leave, her eyes lingering on his retreating figure for a while before she closed them again. A contented smile played on her lips. They had made love last night in their old house, and again this morning. Was this frequent lovemaking a sign of love?
Gu Zi thought it might be. The older man was not one for fancy words. Even though he had learned about romantic psychology and techniques to pursue her, his preferred method of expressing love was through action. He was not a man of excess, but his inability to resist her, wasn’t that a sign of love?
Although they had met for other reasons, they seemed to be the right people for each other. Gu Zi had certainly felt the older man’s love. And she had to admit, she was beginning to feel love for him too. It was more than acceptance and liking; it was a hint of love!
With these thoughts, Gu Zi drifted off into a peaceful sleep. She didn’t rise until Su Shen had finished preparing their meal.
After the family had eaten lunch, Su Shen left for the slaughterhouse. Gu Zi went upstairs to change her clothes, applied a light makeup, tidied up the kitchen, and then left the house with fresh vegetables and a small basket of chicken and duck eggs.
As she passed through the living room, she kissed Su Le and instructed the two brothers, “You two will have to take care of the living room. I’m going to deliver some vegetables to Gao Ming’s house. Take care of Lele.”
Su Li had already planned to show his mother his mature side. So when Gu Zi approached, he was already hard at work, squatting on the floor and vigorously scrubbing it. He didn’t say a word, but he felt triumphant, believing that his image in his mother’s eyes had greatly improved. She must be very pleased.
Su Bing was sweeping the floor and responded solemnly, “Okay, we’ll clean it up. It’s not a problem.”
Once Gu Zi’s footsteps had faded, Su Li immediately looked up and asked his older brother Su Bing, who was still working diligently, “Brother, was I cool just now, working in silence? Did mom pay special attention to me?”
Su Bing glanced at his brother and said, “Yes, she paid special attention because when you were scrubbing the floor, your butt was sticking up high. It looked a bit ugly. Right, Lele?”
Su Le, who was sitting on the sofa watching TV, obediently nodded when she heard her older brother call her. She looked at her second brother and echoed in a childish voice, “Second brother’s butt was high and ugly.”
“Really? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” Su Li was questioning his life choices. He had been so focused on showing his mature side to his mother that he had forgotten about image management.
He had made a mistake, next time he should plan some good-looking cleaning movements in advance!
Su Bing watched his brother’s frustrated expression and felt a secret satisfaction. Heh! Who asked him to always be so scheming, always trying to show off in front of their mother…
When Gu Zi delivered the goods to the Gao family residence, Grandma Gao was very pleased. She wanted to invite Gu Zi to have tea and snacks in the courtyard.
Since Gu Zi had nothing else to do, she didn’t refuse. She stayed to accompany Grandma Gao. Besides, she also had something to discuss with Grandma Gao, and was just waiting for an opportunity to bring it up.
As they chatted, Grandma Gao mentioned the children’s school starting, “I called yesterday and arranged for my Gao Ming to transfer to the first grade B2 class. School starts tomorrow. You said you’re going to work tomorrow, right? I think Su Bing and Su Li should come to my house tomorrow, and they can go to school with Gao Ming.”
Gu Zi knew that Grandma Gao’s kindness was hard to refuse, and the children from both families got along well. This was not a big deal, so she naturally wouldn’t refuse. “If you thinks this is convenient, of course it’s okay. But Grandma Gao, aren’t you afraid that Gao Ming’s studies will be affected by the transfer? Wasn’t Gao Ming originally in an A-class?”
