Thinking of this, Su Mianmian's heart began to pound uncontrollably.
Her eyes lit up as she looked at Gu Yizhou. Gu Yizhou chuckled, "Of course not. A few photography enthusiasts participated in A University's anniversary celebration, and I got this photo from one of them." "Oh, I see."
Su Mianmian nodded, a sudden pang of disappointment washing over her. She knew it; how could Gu Yizhou have liked her so early? Gu Yizhou led Su Mianmian upstairs.
They first went to see Tangtang's room, a perfect replica of the cat house in Yuejing Tiancheng. Gu Yizhou explained that this was to help Tangtang adapt to her new environment more quickly.
Su Mianmian thought Gu Yizhou was incredibly thoughtful, always anticipating everything. She knelt down and patted Tangtang's head. "Tangtang, this is our home now. We'll never move again."
Gu Yizhou didn't know what Tangtang was thinking at that moment. In any case, his heart softened terribly. Home. He finally had a home, a home with Su Mianmian. Next, they would go back to their master bedroom. This master bedroom was much larger than the one in Yuejing Tiancheng.
Besides a separate walk-in closet, there was an entire wall of wardrobes. They were filled with her and Gu Yizhou's seasonal clothes, all brand new styles with the tags still on.
Su Mianmian's gaze lingered on the various styles of clothes when she saw Gu Yizhou pick out a beige nightgown. "It's late, go take a shower first. You can look at them slowly later."
Su Mianmian said "Okay," took the nightgown, and obediently went into the bathroom. The bathroom was also incredibly spacious. Her and Gu Yizhou's matching electric toothbrushes sat quietly on the sink, and their toiletries were all brand new and unopened, packed tightly together.
Su Mianmian felt a slight unease. From today onwards, she would truly begin her life of living with Gu Yizhou day and night. Because it was so late, Su Mianmian didn't take a bath, but instead took a simple shower.
While putting on her pajamas, she realized that Gu Yizhou had given her a spaghetti strap style. The V-neck was trimmed with sheer lace, revealing glimpses of cleavage. The back was even more extravagant, adorned only with two thin, crisscrossing straps.
After dressing, Su Mianmian looked in the mirror and realized it was far too sexy. She bit her lip and opened the bathroom door a crack. "Gu Yizhou, could you get me another set of pajamas?" Silence answered her.
Su Mianmian opened the door wider, peeking around. Gu Yizhou was indeed not in the bedroom. Su Mianmian hesitated, then reluctantly went to get it herself. Just as she reached the wardrobe, she heard a sound from the bedroom door.
Su Mianmian turned around and saw Gu Yizhou walking in wearing a bathrobe. His bathrobe was loose, exposing his chest.
He was still holding a towel, drying his hair. Water trickled down his neck and chest, disappearing into the depths of his muscles, leaving clear streaks. Their eyes met, and Su Mianmian froze for two seconds before reacting, covering her chest with her hands.
"I...I'll get another nightgown." She turned and hurriedly opened the closet door. Her gleaming white back was suddenly revealed to Gu Yizhou, making his pupils tremble. His gaze lingered on Su Mianmian's sexy back inch by inch, his throat involuntarily bobbing.
Su Mianmian felt a burning gaze and realized that her back was also quite exposed.
For a moment, she couldn't keep track of both front and back, her heart pounding. Just as she was about to grab anything to change, a large, fleshy wall suddenly blocked her back, and then the closet door was slammed shut by a pair of large hands.
Gu Yizhou, one hand on the closet door, spoke in a deep, bubbly voice above Su Mianmian's head. "Why change again? Doesn't this one look good?" Confined in the small space, Su Mianmian had nowhere to hide.
Her cheeks flushed instantly. Head bowed, her voice barely a whisper, "It's...too revealing." "Revealing?" Gu Yizhou's fingers traced Su Mianmian's shoulder, his fingertips slowly sliding down her shoulder. The rough texture of his fingertips sent a shiver down Su Mianmian's spine.
"Goodness, the one you wore to the bar tonight looks similar to this one." Su Mianmian sensed something was off in Gu Yizhou's tone and quickly explained. "Not similar at all. That one, although it was a halter top, only exposed my shoulders; the rest was covered."
Gu Yizhou lowered his head, close to Su Mianmian's ear. "Even your shoulders are no good, Mianmian. I don't like you dressing like that in public." Su Mianmian lowered her head even further. Sure enough, Gu Yizhou's punishment, though late, had arrived.
Tonight at the bar, when Gu Yizhou draped his suit jacket over her shoulders, Su Mianmian sensed his displeasure with her slip dress. He hadn't said anything then, and Su Mianmian initially thought she was overthinking it, but it turned out he was waiting for this.
Thinking of this, Su Mianmian felt frustrated. "I know, I won't wear that next time." Gu Yizhou kissed her earlobe. "Good girl." "It's not that I won't let you wear it, you can wear it at home, I like it."
Upon hearing this, Su Mianmian's entire earlobes instantly flushed a deep red. She thought defiantly, she wouldn't wear it at home either, why should he have the final say?
Gu Yizhou sensed the girl's displeasure and slowly turned her body around to face him, his large hand taking her small hand and guiding it to his chest. "I promised you before, now I'll keep my promise, okay?" He'd touched her against the grain before, now he was going to stroke her fur with the right direction.
Before Su Mianmian could react, her hand touched a firm, smooth, slightly elastic skin, very pleasant to the touch. She only felt it for less than a second before quickly pulling away. Gu Yizhou, however, wouldn't let go. "Mianmian, I'm your husband, don't be shy."
He said, taking her hand and guiding it along her abdominal muscles, stroking each one. Su Mianmian's face flushed, her heart pounding in her chest. "Okay, I'm done."
Gu Yizhou looked down at the almost radiant young woman before him, his chest trembling slightly, letting out two soft laughs. "Really done?" Su Mianmian nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "Really done."
"Then, when you see other men's muscles in the future, will you still be envious?" Su Mianmian wanted to say that she truly hadn't been envious at all, but at this moment, facing Gu Yizhou's overflowing possessiveness, she could only go along with his words.
"No, I won't be envious of other people's muscles." Gu Yizhou was finally satisfied, releasing Su Mianmian's small hand and slowly putting on his robe. "Let's go to sleep."
The moment the light went out, Su Mianmian finally breathed a sigh of relief. Just a moment ago, she couldn't tell if Gu Yizhou's actions were punishment or a reward, but thankfully, he didn't ask for more.
Just as she closed her eyes to sleep, she heard Gu Yizhou's deep, magnetic voice beside her. "Mianmian, you look as beautiful in this nightgown as I imagined."... The next day, Su Mianmian slept until she naturally woke up.
Stretching, she walked slowly to the window, intending to breathe in some fresh air, when she suddenly smelled a faint floral fragrance.
Something flashed through her mind, and Su Mianmian eagerly looked out the window. Sure enough, right below her bedroom window, there was a sea of blooming roses. Aunt Zhou was watering the flowers with a hose. Hearing the noise upstairs, she looked up and smiled at Su Mianmian.
"Good morning, Madam." "Good morning." No woman can resist flowers, especially such a beautiful expanse. Su Mianmian felt an immense sense of happiness at that moment. Gu Yizhou had said there was a large rose garden here, and he hadn't lied to her.
After a quick wash, Su Mianmian changed her clothes and ran downstairs. Aunt Zhou was already inside, carrying breakfast towards the dining room. Seeing Su Mianmian, she smiled. "Madam, slow down, don't fall."
Su Mianmian said "Oh," and slowed her pace somewhat sheepishly, her eyes scanning the surroundings. "Where's Gu Yizhou?" Aunt Zhou replied, "The master went to the company early this morning. He specifically told me not to wake you, to let you get some sleep."
Su Mianmian nodded, feeling a slight pang of disappointment for some reason. But thinking about it, it made sense. Gu Yizhou was the president of the Gu Group; he must have a lot on his plate, how could he be home every day?
Aunt Zhou noticed Su Mianmian's slight disappointment but didn't point it out, secretly curving her lips into a smile. She pointed to the delicate, vibrant roses in the vase in the center of the table.
"That's what Mr. Gu picked especially for you this morning. He put it on the dining table hoping it would brighten your day." Su Mianmian's heart, which had just sank, suddenly felt like it had been lifted back up. "Did he say anything else?"
Aunt Zhou looked at Su Mianmian's shy and timid appearance and thought her mistress was truly adorable. "Mr. Gu said before he left that he wanted to eat home-cooked meals for lunch. If you don't have any other plans today, you can deliver lunch to him." "Deliver lunch to Gu Yizhou?"
Su Mianmian's eyes lit up. She didn't have any special plans, and since she was at home with nothing to do anyway, she might as well deliver it.
