Chapter 250
Hu Yuying felt incredibly embarrassed. Had Long Ge really cleared the way for her...?
Adding to that, she was already five days late... and now she couldn't help but wonder if she was pregnant...
She stole a glance at Long Ge.
Long Aotian seemed to sense her unease and gently ruffled the little girl's long hair. "Just wait for me at home."
Watching Long Ge jog away, Hu Yuying covered her face with her hands, feeling utterly ashamed to face anyone...
Before long, Long Aotian returned, carrying a large bag of supplies.
After changing his clothes, he picked up the little girl and placed her on the bed.
As soon as she hit the mattress, she burrowed under the covers, muffling her voice as she said, "I-I’m sorry, Long Ge... It’s just that... my period was delayed..."
**Chapter 304: The Changeable Woman**
Looking at the little girl all wrapped up, Long Aotian chuckled softly and reached out to pat her bundled form. "It’s okay. We were together before your period was delayed, so there’s nothing to be embarrassed about."
"Are you saying that if my period hadn’t been delayed, I wouldn’t care about you?"
At this, the little girl peeked out from under the covers.
Her slightly reddened eyes looked even more delicate and lovely.
He gently pinched her cheek. "Do you feel unwell anywhere?"
Hu Yuying's cheeks flushed even more, making her look even more charming. "I-I just have a little stomach ache, and my lower back feels a bit sore..."
After brewing some ginger tea with brown sugar, Long Aotian lay down beside her, one hand resting lightly on her abdomen while the other gently massaged her waist.
"The ginger tea just needs to cool a bit before you can drink it."
His large hand radiated warmth, easing the discomfort in her belly.
"Are you a little disappointed, Long Ge?"
"Do you want the honest answer?" Long Aotian looked at the little girl in his arms with a fond smile.
"Of course I do."
"To be honest, I’m a bit disappointed, but I’m also relieved."
"Because I really want to marry you and have a child of our own. I’m sure he or she will look just like you."
"But that would mean you’d have to give up your best years and the dreams you’ve worked so hard to achieve."
"I feel guilty, but I’m also selfish..."
Hu Yuying looked seriously at Long Aotian, her delicate fingers gently resting on his lips. "Don’t say that, Long Ge. I’m willing to do all of this."
"I like you, and what you call sacrifice is nothing compared to how good you are to me, how you pamper me."
"Will you marry me after you graduate?"
A faint smile appeared on Hu Yuying's face, her eyes sparkling with sweetness. "Okay."
"Let’s make a pinky promise." Long Aotian extended his pinky.
"But didn’t you say that was childish?" Hu Yuying giggled, covering her mouth.
"If it’s with you, it doesn’t feel childish at all."
Their tiny fingers hooked around his big one. "Long Aotian will marry Hu Yuying, and Hu Yuying will marry Long Aotian. We’ll pinky swear for a hundred years without changing our minds..."
After this, the little girl and her big brother exchanged a glance and couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
"Get up and drink the ginger tea, then let’s go to the hospital."
"Why are we going to the hospital?"
"To find out why your period is delayed so we can avoid it in the future."
After all, before he had taken her, her periods had been quite regular, but now they were all over the place. Long Aotian didn’t understand it, but he cared about her, which made him even more worried.
Feeling Long Ge’s concern, Hu Yuying nodded gently.
After getting ready, he helped her into his jacket.
Then they rode off on his electric bike.
At the hospital, Long Aotian waited outside.
Before long, the door opened, and Hu Yuying stepped out, her lips pressed together, her face flushed.
"What happened? Why is your face so red?" Long Aotian rushed over, concern etched on his face. "What did the doctor say?"
Hu Yuying nodded, then shook her head, whispering, "I’ll tell you outside."
Once they were outside, the cool breeze brushed against her cheeks, and the redness on her face finally began to fade.
"Can you tell me now?"
Seeing her relaxed demeanor, Long Aotian knew it couldn’t be anything serious, just a bit of curiosity.
Hu Yuying looked down, her fingers intertwined. "The doctor needed to know various reasons, like if I did any extreme sports or ate something unusual..."
"And then I explained what happened with you..."
"The doctor said that losing my virginity right before my period could cause a delay, and she asked how many times we... you know..."
Long Aotian cleared his throat, finally understanding why the little girl’s face was so flushed.
"When I told her we did it over thirty times in two and a half days, she laughed and said it was fine, just to take care of my health and let me go..."
By the end, her voice was so soft it was almost inaudible...
Long Aotian couldn’t help but chuckle.
He found it amusing how shy she was, but he was also relieved that she was okay.
Hu Yuying playfully pinched his waist. "I told you not to do it so many times, but you just wouldn’t listen..."
"Okay, okay, it’s all my fault. Go ahead and pinch me a few more times to vent."
"My little girl is so wonderful..."
For some reason, hearing Long Aotian say that stirred a wave of inexplicable emotion in her heart.
"Long Ge, the workers didn’t come today. Let’s go buy some groceries. I’ll cook for you."
"Sure." Long Aotian hopped on the electric bike, taking Hu Yuying to the market.
Compared to him, the little girl was much better at shopping and bargaining.
Everyone has a different attitude towards life.
For someone like Hu Yuying, who focused on living, shopping was a joy, buying groceries was a joy, and cooking a delicious meal was also a joy.
So she was happy, and happiness is contagious, which made Long Aotian happy too.
They bought a lot of groceries and rode back home on Long Ge’s electric bike. The weather had cooled down, so the groceries would be fine.
Once home, Long Aotian washed the vegetables while Hu Yuying started the fire to cook.
Every time their eyes met, they couldn’t help but laugh.
"I can’t keep looking at you, or I’ll burn the food."
Hu Yuying covered her face with her hand, trying not to look at Long Aotian.
Seeing this, Long Aotian couldn’t resist moving closer to her. "You took advantage of me last night, and now you don’t want me to look at you? Changeable woman?"
Ever since they had become intimate, Long Aotian was no longer the serious, meticulous older brother he used to be.
Just then, Long Aotian’s phone suddenly rang.
"Wan Ning, what’s up?"
In the video, Lin Wan Ning looked anxious. "Brother, I heard Qing Xue say that Yuying is... is that true?"
Hu Yuying, sitting on a small stool, muttered, "Qing Xue has such a big mouth..."
Hearing this, Long Aotian couldn’t help but chuckle at her flushed ears. "No, it’s just a delayed period."
He turned the camera to focus on Hu Yuying.
Hu Yuying shyly looked at the screen. "Wan Ning, don’t listen to Qing Xue’s nonsense..."
**Chapter 305: The Inconsistent Little Woman**
After hanging up the video call, Hu Yuying returned the phone to Long Aotian, pouting. "Now even Wan Ning knows..."
"When I see Qing Xue this afternoon, I’m definitely going to tickle her..."
She clenched her little fists, looking like she wouldn’t let Qing Xue escape her grasp, which made Long Aotian unable to resist pinching her cheeks.
"Hu Yuying, did you grow up eating cuteness?"
Hearing this, and seeing the unhidden affection in Long Aotian’s eyes, Hu Yuying’s eyes sparkled. "No, I grew up eating food..."
Before she could finish, Long Aotian captured her lips.
She struggled a little, but soon surrendered to him.
Suddenly, she sniffed the air, opened her eyes, and began to tap on Long Aotian’s chest. "Mmm, my food... I need to cook my food..."
Ignoring the strands of saliva lingering on her slightly reddened lips, Hu Yuying hurriedly returned to stir-frying the ingredients in the pan.
