Is it really impossible for me to like him?
Not necessarily.
More than half an hour later, the Rolls-Royce stopped near the back gate of the campus, close to the dormitory building.
"We're here." Bie Yunzong unbuckled Su Yanxi's seatbelt and reached out to press the door open button next to the car door for her. "Finish it as soon as possible and get some rest. Don't stay up too late."
Su Yanxi had ridden in Bie Yunzong's Rolls-Royce many times, but he still hadn't learned how to open the door using the button. He wasn't used to sitting in a luxury car, so he always felt very reserved whenever he rode in the young master's car.
He nodded slightly to thank Bie Yunzong, picked up his bag and was about to get out of the car when he stopped, turned around and called out, "Young Master Bie."
Helpless, Bie Yunzong repeated, "You can just call me 'Yunzong.' We've been on so many dates already, why do you still call me so formally?"
"Then... Yunzong?" Su Yanxi called out Bie Yunzong's name stiffly, beckoning him with her finger, "Could you come closer for a moment?"
Chapter 125
Bie Yunzong leaned closer, puzzled.
He thought Su Yanxi had something to say, but unexpectedly, Su Yanxi suddenly leaned in and kissed him on the cheek. Her soft lips touched his cheek, making a soft "pop".
This kiss completely stunned Bie Yunzong.
Su Yanxi was so embarrassed that Ma Ang turned around and got out of the car. When she was about to close the door, she held onto the door and gave Bie Yunzong a slight bow and a sweet smile.
Goodnight, Yunzong.
"Ooh ooh ooh—!" Upon hearing this, Bie Yunzong began to excitedly hug his wife and howl.
Look at his infatuated and crazy appearance, as if he's about to transform into a pink love bubble at any moment.
"I remember, I remember that kiss! Damn, I remember it so clearly. I was so excited when I got home that day that I stayed up all night, and my stinky older brother even laughed at me when I woke up the next day!"
"Ah, so sweet! So this is what it looks like from my wife's perspective. So sour, so sweet, so sour and sweet!"
Bie Yunzong was so excited he couldn't stop. After rolling around on the bed, he got up and walked around the bed twice. Then he suddenly hugged Su Yanxi and kissed her several times in a row!
"Wife, I love you!"
Su Yanxi wiped her face in disgust and glared at Bie Yunzong reproachfully: "You're disgusting. I just finished showering, and you've already kissed my face all over with your saliva!"
"Because I love my wife!" Bie Yunzong couldn't contain his excitement. He threw himself into Su Yanxi's arms and rubbed his face against hers for a while. "Wife, I was wrong. You love me so much, I love you so much! If I ever lose my temper with you again, I'll punish myself by loving you ten times more!"
"Come on! Who cares?" Su Yanxi scoffed, then chuckled. "That kiss at the back door was the beginning of me abandoning reason and accepting my true feelings. I'm finding it harder and harder to resist your advances, so I've decided to accept my true thoughts, which is—I like you."
"Although our relationship started off a bit bumpy and involved a lot of misunderstandings, it's amazing how we've managed to stay together for seven years after all the ups and downs."
Su Yanxi scooped up the heavy dog's head from her arms and treated it with great care.
The more he looked at Bie Yunzong's face, the more he wanted to laugh: "Now do you understand? You don't need any attributes or labels; you have your own unique personal charm. You're the one who can make me fall in love at first sight."
"And it turns out that bringing home the dog you fall in love with at first sight is definitely the right choice."
His wife's beautiful eyes sparkled, and Bie Yunzong was mesmerized by them. He couldn't help but pounce on his wife on the bed, hugging her slender waist and whimpering sweetly.
"You're so good, my wife, how can you be so good?" Bie Yunzong buried his face in his hands. "If I could, I would like to hear you tell me the story of how you fell in love with me every day."
Author's Note:
Dog: Honey, can you tell me again the story of how you chose me from a bunch of puppies?
Su Su: ...Some emotions can only be expressed once.
————————
I'm sorry, my creative process has been a bit unstable lately, and I'm really sorry for releasing fragmented outlines every time!
I've finished revising it, sob sob. I'll try to get back into shape sooner in the future. I'll give you all red envelopes for the last and this chapters! Thank you so much for your understanding!
51# I need you, and you need me.
The next morning, Su Yanxi woke up on time, urged by her biological clock.
His head throbbed with pain, and his body ached as if it had been torn apart and forcibly pieced back together. He struggled to break free from the dream, and the first thing he saw upon opening his eyes was, without a doubt, Bie Yunzong's handsome face.
A face that's both handsome and infuriating!
"...He was sleeping so soundly." Su Yanxi was speechless.
He tried to get up, but unfortunately, he was completely held in Bie Yunzong's arms, his arms were pinned down, and he couldn't move at all.
That feeling of frustration and helplessness made Su Yanxi feel more wronged than the monkey under the Five Elements Mountain. She wanted to kick the calf of the person next to her, but her feet were firmly pinned down and she couldn't lift them at all.
He twisted and turned, trying different angles for a while, and finally managed to pull one of his arms out of Bie Yunzong's arms.
After last night's chaotic and intense battle, Su Yanxi's limbs were sore and weak; now, after another strenuous struggle, he felt like he was about to break down.
Exhausted both physically and mentally, Su Yanxi felt increasingly angry no matter how she looked at her nemesis husband's face!
He deliberately ran his finger along Bie Yunzong's eyelashes and whispered, "Yunzong, Yunzong? Wake up, it's time to eat meat."
In his sleep, Bie Yunzong seemed to truly hear the call; he even smiled dreamily in his sleep, uttering a blissful murmur: "Mmm..."
Su Yanxi thought to herself, "Are you crazy? I was just teasing you, and you actually started laughing in your dream?"
Could you please stop just having fun and give me a break?
Su Yanxi rolled her eyes and changed her tone, saying, "Don't let it go! Your wife has run off with someone else! If you don't wake up soon, you might not even see her again!"
The snorting dog, who had been sleeping soundly, suddenly changed his expression. His face darkened, and he curled up even tighter around Su Yanxi. He stretched his neck and brought his face closer to his beautiful wife's neck, letting out a muffled groan of dissatisfaction.
"snort……"
Bie Yunzong's reaction made Su Yanxi feel both angry and amused. She was angry that this rascal was so impolite, using her as a human pillow, cushioning, hugging, and cuddling her, using all sorts of tricks to comfortably sleep with her the whole way.
Laughing, Bie Yunzong truly loved him to the extreme, even in his dreams he couldn't escape things related to him.
He loves his wife even in his dreams, and smiles sweetly when he thinks of her; but when he hears that his wife is going to run away with someone else, his face darkens fiercely, and he roars a warning.
Oh, you silly dog.
In her husband's warm embrace, Su Yanxi quietly observed him for a long time. Only after scrutinizing every detail of his face did she resume her actions, scratching his neck, poking his stomach, and pinching his waist, teasing the sleeping Bie Yunzong.
Chapter 126
After much effort, Su Yanxi finally managed to wake up Bie Yunzong, this "sleeping mountain".
"Um……"
The Alaskan Malamute yawned lazily, stretched, and greeted its beautiful wife in its arms with a cheerful expression.
"Good morning, wife~" When he was in such a good mood, even the last syllable of his voice would unconsciously rise.
"You big rascal." Su Yanxi took the opportunity to roll out of Bie Yunzong's arms, propped herself up on the bed and sat up, rolling her eyes and scolding, "You're the one who's most shameless."
"What happened yesterday is over. You are not allowed to mention the misunderstanding from last night, and you are not allowed to ask for any 'compensation' or 'subsidy' again."
"ah?"
The moment the topic of bargaining came up, Bie Yunzong instantly snapped out of it and jumped out of bed.
"How can you say that? Honey, you clearly promised yesterday that you would spend a week with me, just the two of us!"
"Did I say that?" Su Yanxi asked blankly. He seemed to be pretending not to remember, but in reality, he genuinely couldn't recall what he had said last night.
Last night, both he and Bie Yunzong were completely enveloped and captivated by a pink, ambiguous atmosphere. In that intimate moment, his words and actions were out of control—completely driven by instinct, letting things unfold naturally.
“I don’t remember. But eating meat and having a week of time alone together should be a choice between two options. You’ve already eaten meat, so you’re not entitled to choose another week of time alone together.”
"You're lying! You never said you had to choose one of the two!" Bie Yunzong angrily pounded the bedside table. "Besides, weren't you enjoying it when I hugged you yesterday?"
"I'm enjoying it; I'm glad we cleared up the unnecessary misunderstanding. But as much as I'm happy, does that conflict with making it up to you last night?"
“Of course there’s a conflict!” Bie Yunzong said matter-of-factly. “Last night was just a romantic exchange between an old married couple, a weekly task at a set time. The time you spend with me is an extra reward, not part of the weekly task—the two are different!”
Su Yanxi put her hands on her hips: "You have so many fallacies."
“That’s not nonsense.” The big dog snorted through its nose, refusing to accept its owner’s lecture no matter what. “When we’re intimate, you’re clearly excited and happy too, but you never admit to that pleasure afterward and just push your needs onto me.”
The Alaskan Malamute, with its ears drooping, began to complain again about its owner's unfair treatment.
"This makes it seem like only I care about and crave a wife? But what I see is clearly not like that."
"Just as I need my wife, she needs me in the same way."
Bie Yunzong's aggrieved words made Su Yanxi shudder with heartache.
Su Yanxi thought to herself, "Please, stop! Stop indulging me, please stop messing with me!"
So, after it was discovered yesterday that he felt sorry for Bie Yunzong and felt wronged and aggrieved on Bie Yunzong's behalf, Bie Yunzong... started using feigning grievance as a secret weapon?!
"I'm sorry, honey." Su Yanxi couldn't stop herself from apologizing. "I'm too proud. Subconsciously, I always see the fact that I need you as something shameful and a failure."
In fact, after their last argument and subsequent reconciliation, Su Yanxi had already realized that "there is no need for husbands to pursue propriety." Since there was no need for pretentious propriety, Bie Yunzong could wail loudly in front of him, and he could disregard his noble status as "the young mistress of the Bie family" and show weakness and imperfection in front of his beloved husband.
However, Su Yanxi lacked a deeper understanding, such as "it is not shameful for husbands and wives to have mutual needs."
Perhaps it was because Su Yanxi had a strict upbringing: his mother, a former dance teacher, treated him strictly, and his father, a former mayor, also wanted him to be a dignified person; therefore, Su Yanxi's way of dealing with things was somewhat "afraid to talk about sex".
Even after sharing a bed with Bie Yunzong for four or five years, he still couldn't bring up the topic openly. For the reserved, dignified, and polite young mistress of the Bie family, such topics were best left unsaid and never brought up as conversation!
But now that I think about it, why is that? It's true that you can't talk about it with other people, but what can't you say to your husband with whom you share a bed?
What's there to be ashamed of?
“Husband, you’re right. It’s perfectly normal for husbands and wives to have needs and desires. I shouldn’t keep avoiding them and transfer all my needs to you.”
Su Yanxi thought he should re-examine his own sexual needs. He probably didn't actually have few needs, but rather he habitually translated his own needs for Bie Yunzong into Bie Yunzong's needs for him.
He was arrogant for far too long during his time with Bie Yunzong.
"A truly good relationship should be one where I need you and you need me."
But scrutiny is one thing, facts are another.
The reality is that if Su Yanxi doesn't stop talking and stop her uncontrollable apologies and reflections, then Su Yanxi will...
Once again, they stepped into that damned wolf's carefully laid trap.
"So, wife, you need me too, right?" Bie Yunzong's aggrieved expression vanished in the blink of an eye, replaced by a sly smile. "Just like I need you, you need me too, right?"
Su Yanxi clenched her fists, her reason screaming "No!" but her emotions defied reason, and she resolutely nodded in response—
"yes."
