Chapter 370: Chapter 228: You’re Not Thinking of Sleeping in the Middle, Are You? Part 2

“What do you mean ‘should have’?” Su Liya cupped Chen Cheng’s cheeks with both hands, making him look directly at her, “Baby, you have to tell the truth!”

Chen Cheng saw how Wen Shulin looked when he was jealous, but Su Liya was more straightforward.

“There are one or two.”

“Ah?! Did they also do this?”

“For you, they are all aunties, why are you seriously arguing here?”

Su Liya quickly changed the subject, after all, those “old aunties” might already have children older than her.

The cheerful smile returned to her face, “I just don’t want anyone to take you away.”

Chen Cheng pinched her plump cheeks and tapped her pert nose.

Su Liya playfully stuck out her tongue and then hugged Chen Cheng, bouncing around a bit.

When the song ended, the two returned to the bar.

Su Liya took out a tissue and wiped the light sweat from Chen Cheng’s forehead, “Are you that hot?”

“Too many people.” Chen Cheng took the tissue and casually wiped.

Then he checked the time, “There’s half an hour left, you better hurry.”

“Then I—”

Before she could finish, a stylishly dressed young man came over, “Hello, beauty, can I buy you a drink?”

Su Liya glanced over, “Sorry, I don’t understand Chinese.”

The young man raised his eyebrows, trying to guess her nationality from her appearance.

“Where are you from?”

“UK.” Su Liya bluffed.

“Yep, I also studied in the UK! In Wales, which university did you go to?” He seemed to be looking for something in common.

Su Liya switched to Chinese: “Wallace.”

“That’s so coincidental… Walla…ce?”

Chen Cheng was barely holding back laughter, he knocked on the table, “Hey, mine.”

Hearing these words, Su Liya turned around surprised, hugged Chen Cheng’s neck, and sweetly said, “Baby!”

Then they shared a deep kiss for several tens of seconds, her fluttering eyelashes revealing Su Liya’s mood.

This was the first time Chen Cheng acknowledged Su Liya’s presence, even if just with a simple “mine” to declare ownership.

After this “long” kiss ended, Su Liya smiled brightly at Chen Cheng, “Baby, you are so manly!”

Chen Cheng drank some water, “Let’s go, we should head back.”

But Su Liya didn’t get up immediately; she put her hands on the bar, looking intensely at Chen Cheng, “Baby, what did you just call me?”

“Did I say anything? I don’t think so.”

“It was ‘mine’!”

Su Liya pressed eagerly, “Are you declaring to the whole world that I’m yours?”

“Could you be someone else’s?” Chen Cheng retorted.

“Can’t be, can’t be!” Su Liya bounced around, “I am baby’s!”

The two left the nightclub ten minutes earlier.

Chen Donghai was already waiting by the road.

Seeing the woman next to Chen Cheng was Su Liya, he was initially surprised but quickly thought it was normal.

“Mr. Chen, Miss Su.”

He opened the car’s back door.

Su Liya got in first, Chen Cheng stood by the door, “Back to No.7 courtyard, come over tomorrow morning at 8, take her to school.”

“Understood, Mr. Chen.”

The luxury car disappeared into the night of the stadium, as if they were both there and not there.

…

…

Arriving at Wen Shulin’s house, Su Liya took out the keys, carefully inserted them into the lock, and opened the door.

The living room was still a mess, exactly as they had left it.

“See, I told you it would be fine,” Su Liya whispered.

Chen Cheng was still a bit worried, took off his shoes, and headed to the bedroom.

Su Liya followed closely.

Wen Shulin and Xiao Meier were still fast asleep, the only difference from when they left was their sleeping positions.

Chen Cheng walked in, hands on his hips, unsure of what to do.

“Baby.”

“Hmm?”

Su Liya covered her mouth and giggled, “You’re not thinking of sleeping in the middle, are you?”

She pointed at the gap between Wen Xiao and teased.

Chen Cheng gently flicked Su Liya’s forehead, “What are you always thinking about in your little head?”

“I’m giving you ideas!”

Su Liya rubbed her forehead, seriously said, “Look, Sister Xiao Er is sleeping so deeply, she definitely won’t notice. Plus, mommy is drunk, she might even think you’re a pillow!”

“You’re speaking more and more nonsensically.”

“LOL~!”

Su Liya made a funny face and then walked towards the door, “I’m going to wash up first, you figure it out yourself!”

Only Chen Cheng and the other two were left in the room.

Li Ya’s suggestion was of course fanciful and unachievable.

Chen Cheng sighed, walked over to the closet, and took out a thin blanket.

After covering Xiao Meier, he covered Shulin with the blanket that was already on the bed.

After making sure everything was in order, he turned off the lights and walked out, back to the living room.

Soon, the sound of running water came from the bathroom.

Chen Cheng leaned on the sofa, looking at the scattered wine bottles on the floor, his mind in disarray.

He picked up one, looked at the text on the bottle and murmured to himself, “Is this wine really that intoxicating?”

After a while, Su Liya, having finished freshening up, walked out wrapped in a towel.

She glanced at Chen Cheng sitting on the sofa, “Are you sleeping here tonight?”

Chen Cheng had just thought about this issue.

Leaving, he didn’t feel at ease.

He dared not imagine what kind of reaction Shulin and Xiao Meier would have when they woke up sober the next day and saw each other.

Not leaving, didn’t seem quite right either.

“Seems like I don’t have a choice?” He gave a wry smile.

Su Liya sat down next to Chen Cheng, “If there’s no choice, then follow your heart~ Being happy is the most important thing in life!”

She kissed Chen Cheng’s face and said, “Goodnight, babe.”

After speaking, Su Liya straightened up, walked to the bedroom, and smiled back, “I won’t lock the door.”

Chen Cheng gave a light chuckle, “Go to sleep early, you have school tomorrow.”

He also turned off the lights in the living room and lay down on the sofa, propping his head with his right hand, but he couldn’t find sleep.

…

…

The next day.

Xiao Meier groggily opened her eyes, saw the unfamiliar environment and the familiar figure, and instantly became alert.

Shulin had woken up about ten minutes before Xiao Meier, and her reaction was the same.

Embarrassed and puzzled, she just turned over, pretended to sleep, and listened to the noises behind her.

“Shulin…”

Before Xiao Meier could finish speaking, Shulin lazily stretched and pretended she just woke up, turning around, “Eh? Xiao Er?”

“I think I drank too much last night…” Xiao Meier sat up, rubbing her head, “I don’t know how it happened…”

Shulin also rubbed her temples, pretending to be unaware of anything, “Me too, I don’t remember anything.”

“Where is Xiao Cheng?” Xiao Meier asked.

Sounds of clinking came from the kitchen.

Both women got up at the same time, walked out of the bedroom, and saw Chen Cheng making breakfast in the kitchen.

Chen Cheng instinctively turned around, “Whoa! You startled me!”

He served the fried eggs from the pan, “Go wash up, breakfast is ready.”

Shulin glanced at the table, with its unset dishes, Chen Cheng noticed her look, “Li Ya had breakfast before going to school, I had Xiao Hai drop her off.”

This might be the best hangover cure for Shulin, she said with a smile, “Thank you, Mr. Chen.”

“Why be so formal with me?”

Chen Cheng removed his apron, “Plain porridge, pickles, eggs, and buns, to warm up your stomach.”

Xiao Meier yawned, “Xiao Cheng, why didn’t you take me home last night?”

“I was about to say, you were sleeping so deeply, nothing could wake you up.” Chen Cheng pointed towards the sofa, “There you go, I only had to endure one night there.”

“Oh, my bad.”

Xiao Meier hurried over and took Chen Cheng’s hand, “Did you sleep well?”

“Quite well.” Chen Cheng replied.

“Cough cough, Xiao Er, why don’t you go wash first?” Shulin tentatively asked.

“Sure!”

“This way.”

Shulin led Xiao Meier to the bathroom, then came back out, and returned to Chen Cheng’s side.

“Thank you.” She said with a smile.

Chen Cheng smiled, “No trouble.”

Shulin leaned down and kissed Chen Cheng, “Morning, husband.”

“It’s almost noon,” Chen Cheng slapped Shulin’s peachy bottom, “You go wash too.”

“Okay.”

After everyone left, Chen Cheng also sat down and began eating this simple brunch.

And his new day of progressing relationships had just begun.
