Chapter 254

“There’s a feeling in Haiwan City that if the kitchen is finished, I can cook for Long Ge every day from now on.”

“Slowly, everything will be alright, just like it was in the beginning.”

“Yeah, everything is gradually getting better.”

Thinking back to her earlier self, she realized she was slowly becoming a better version of herself.

Looking back now, it all felt truly magical.

“Long Ge, I want to lie in your arms.” The little girl tilted her face up, speaking innocently and purely.

Long Ao Tian opened his arms wide. “Come here, you’re always welcome.”

Hu Yu Ying lifted her long hair and gently laid it against Long Ao Tian’s chest.

She loved listening to Long Ge’s heartbeat; she adored it so much.

As she listened to his heartbeat, Hu Yu Ying let out a soft yawn, snuggled into a comfortable position, and slowly drifted off to sleep.

Gently stroking the little girl’s long hair and inhaling her faint, sweet scent, Long Ao Tian wrapped his arms around her and closed his eyes...

**Chapter 309: The Little Girl's Subtle Schemes**

The next morning.

Hu Yu Ying felt so warm.

Lazily opening her eyes, she found herself in Long Ge’s embrace.

How could it not be warm when he held her so tightly?

Quietly slipping out of Long Ge’s arms, she stretched happily and looked at him still sound asleep, feeling an inexplicable urge to laugh.

Long Ge seemed even more handsome while sleeping.

There was a hint of stubble on his chin.

As she carefully observed every detail of Long Ge, her cheeks suddenly flushed. Sneaking a kiss on Long Ge’s lips wouldn’t be noticed, right?

With that thought, Hu Yu Ying cautiously leaned in, quickly planted a kiss, and then burrowed back under the covers, leaving only her smiling eyes peeking out to watch Long Ge.

She saw him instinctively press his lips together, then a slight smile appeared.

How wonderful.

Her Long Ge was just too adorable!

Quietly getting out of bed and dressing, she stepped out of the room.

After the weather turned cooler, Kyoto’s air wasn’t particularly fresh; instead, a light mist often lingered in the mornings.

At this hour, the streets were bustling with people. Those working in Kyoto were all striving hard to make a living.

Looking at the distant skyscrapers, Hu Yu Ying couldn’t help but wonder if she would stay in Kyoto after graduation.

In this fast-paced city, what would life be like in the future?

But then she thought, as long as Long Ge was by her side, everything should be just fine. Of course, she would work hard too.

After queuing for breakfast, she returned home to find Long Ge still asleep. With her cool fingertips, she gently poked his cheek.

“Long Ge, wake up!”

Accompanied by her gentle shaking and soft calls.

Long Ao Tian stretched with a smile, finally opening his eyes in a daze.

He looked at the little girl leaning over the bed, her face lit up with a smile.

Long Ao Tian pulled her in and gently rolled over, bringing her back to bed.

“Waking up to see you feels so good.”

Holding the little girl tightly, Long Ao Tian felt a surge of happiness.

A gentle girl, a pure girl, a beautiful girl—she was his little girl, his own.

It felt like a dream. In his world, he was just a 28-year-old wage slave without parents.

In this world, he had a nominal father, earned unimaginable wealth, bought a siheyuan (a traditional Chinese courtyard house) in Kyoto, and had such a wonderful partner...

“Time to get up for breakfast.”

“I want to hug my little girl.”

Hearing this, Hu Yu Ying bit her lip, tilted her head back, and looked at Long Ge with a smile in her eyes, softly saying, “Then let’s hug for a bit longer?”

“Yeah, let me hold you a little longer. How could I ever get enough of you? You’re so soft and small, it’s so comfortable, I really like it...”

“If you don’t get up soon, breakfast will get cold.” Although she loved being held by Long Ge; his embrace was truly warm.

“You haven’t given me my good morning kiss yet.”

Like a child asking for a loving kiss, seeing Long Ge like this made Hu Yu Ying want to laugh. Was he more clingy than she was?

“Mua.”

After receiving the kiss, Long Ao Tian smiled as if he had just eaten honey.

“Time to get up.”

“Ah~” Hu Yu Ying covered her eyes with her hands. “Long Ge, how can you be like this...”

Her beautiful eyes sparkled between her fingers. Although it wasn’t the first time she had seen him like this, and they had even bathed together before, every time she saw him, different feelings arose in her heart.

She still felt a bit shy.

Long Ao Tian glanced down, feeling helpless about this. Morning wood wasn’t something he could control.

Besides, it had been so long; how could she still be shy?

The little girl was just too bashful.

Leaning closer to her ear, he whispered, “It’s not like you haven’t seen it before. Look at your little face turning red; you’re making me even more excited.”

Upon hearing this, Hu Yu Ying’s cheeks, ears, and even her neck turned a shade of crimson.

“Long Ge, you’re so shameless.” After saying this, she turned and walked to the small table, taking a deep breath and clenching her small hands tightly.

Even though everything that needed to happen had already happened, Hu Yu Ying still didn’t know why she couldn’t fully let go in front of Long Ge.

This was actually quite normal; girls and boys were different.

Especially for a shy girl like Hu Yu Ying, it was even more pronounced.

But this also showed that they hadn’t spent enough time together.

Fortunately, they were officially living together now. With more time, she wouldn’t be so easily shy anymore.

However, at this stage, she needed to overcome her shyness on her own.

Life was long, and their journey had just begun.

Her small hand was enveloped in his larger one.

Hu Yu Ying looked up at Long Ao Tian.

He sighed softly and gently tucked her loose hair behind her ear. “Shy little girl, Long Ge is all yours now. You need to learn to slowly accept all of me.”

Slowly accepting all of Long Ge, the little girl nodded heavily.

Just like before, when Long Ge taught her to be thick-skinned.

Practice slowly, adapt gradually, and ultimately accept everything, including Long Ge’s body.

“Then Long Ge has to accept all of me too, including my body.”

Hearing this, Long Ao Tian burst into laughter, pulling the little girl into his arms. “You’re right. First, let Long Ge check your body.”

Seeing the smile on Long Ge’s face, Hu Yu Ying knew he was trying to tease her.

Quickly covering her chest, she exclaimed, “No! Long Ge, you’re such a big pervert!”

“The big bad wolf loves to eat little white rabbits. I’m going to eat my little white rabbit now, ah woo~”

Fortunately, this scene happened at home, and thankfully no one else was around. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be having breakfast; they’d be feasting on dog food instead.

After breakfast.

Long Ao Tian rode his bike to take Hu Yu Ying to A University. “I’ll come pick you up at noon.”

“Okay, let’s go buy groceries for lunch. Can we invite Qing Xue and Wan Ning to join us?”

“Sure.”

Long Ao Tian would never say no to any of Hu Yu Ying’s requests; he always indulged her.

“Hehe, I’ll go tell Qing Xue and Wan Ning. They’ve been wanting to eat stir-fried chicken for a long time. I’ll let them know, and they’ll be so happy!”

“You all have a great relationship.”

“Didn’t Long Ge say it before? Friends can be few, but you can’t be without them. We all enjoy each other’s company and can talk easily, so our bond naturally grows stronger.”

Arriving at the entrance of A University, Hu Yu Ying hung her helmet on the electric bike and cheerfully said to Long Ge, “Drive safely!”

“Ahem, did you forget something?”

Hu Yu Ying blinked suspiciously.

“Right here...” Long Ao Tian shamelessly pointed to his cheek.

Seeing this, Hu Yu Ying chuckled mischievously. How could she forget?

She just wanted Long Ge to bring it up because it would sweeten her day.

Feeling the warm touch on his cheek, Long Ao Tian looked at the little girl with amusement.

Her little schemes were still quite obvious.

But he was more than willing to indulge his little girl...

**Chapter 310: Seeing You Weak, My Heart Breaks**

Watching the little girl happily walk into the academy, Long Ao Tian finally turned to leave.

Walking through the campus, Hu Yu Ying felt joyful, occasionally glancing back. Although Long Ge had already left, everything that had happened at the school gate replayed in her mind like a vivid scene.
