The sky gradually darkened, and the lights along the Jialing River began to glow, including the night lights at Hongya Cave!
Meanwhile, Zhou Chao and Jiang Li were still fast asleep, dreaming away.
“All, why is it so dark?” As soon as he opened his eyes, Zhou Chao felt the darkness surrounding him. At the same time, he sensed that his right hand was resting on something soft. He gently rubbed it.
“Mmm,” Jiang Li in his embrace emitted a gentle moan, and in that instant, Zhou Chao became acutely aware of where his hand was. He contemplated retracting it but desired to prolong the moment. Yet, as he glanced downwards, he noticed Jiang Li gazing at him with wide-open eyes.
“I can’t help it,” Zhou Chao said, removing his hand.
BoxNovel.com“You big rascal!” Jiang Li whispered under her breath but snuggled even closer to Zhou Chao.
“Do you want something to eat? It’s almost 9:30!”
“I do, but I don’t want to leave the bed. I just want to stay here.”
“In that case, I’ll order some takeout.”
“Sure!” Zhou Chao then picked up the nearby phone and started scrolling through it. At this time, there were plenty of barbecue options available.
“What would you like to eat? How about some barbecue?”
“Sure, let’s have barbecue! 1 want meat!” Zhou Chao chuckled at her response. He ordered a serving of each type of meat and decided not to order any alcohol. Instead, he ordered two fresh fruit juices.
After about an hour, there was a knock on the door. Zhou Chao put on a jacket and went outside.
“Hello, your delivery is here.”
“Thank you,” Zhou Chao replied, taking the two heavy bags from him.
“All Li, it’s time to come out for dinner.”
“Coming!” Jiang Li emerged from the bedroom, having changed into sleepwear.
“It’s all meat!” Jiang Li’s eyes lit up as she saw the table filled with barbecue.
“Eat up before it gets cold,” Zhou Chao said with a smile, observing Jiang Li’s enthusiasm for food.
“Sure!” The two of them then enjoyed their meal heartily.
Before long, they had devoured most of the barbecue on the table, leaving only a few skewers. Adhering to their no-waste policy, Zhou Chao made an effort to finish the remaining ones.
“I’m so satisfied! What if I gain weight from eating like this?” Jiang Li patted her satisfied belly.
“You’ll always be my All Li,” Zhou Chao said, pulling Jiang Li closer and whispering in her ear.
“You’re such a sweet talker.” Jiang Li playfully nudged Zhou Chao, looking at the night view of Hongya Cave across from them. This moment was something special between them.
“All Li, it’s getting late. Let’s go to sleep! We’re heading back to Fuzhou early tomorrow morning!” Jiang Li looked up at Zhou Chao, who was wearing a mischievous smile. She had no idea what he had in mind.
“Okay.” Both of them returned to their room to rest.
The next morning, Zhou Chao opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Li in his arms. He couldn’t help but kiss her forehead.
Perhaps Zhou Chao’s actions woke up Jiang Li. Her dazed eyes glanced at Zhou Chao and then she went back to sleep!
“Lazy little pig, it’s time to get up!” Zhou Chao gently pinched Jiang Li’s cute nose.
“Hmm, I want to sleep more. You were really naughty last night; my hands are still sore!” Her little hand lightly tapped Zhou Chao’s chest, making him chuckle.
“Is it bad that I’m a bit skilled? Darling,” Zhou Chao whispered softly in Jiang Li’s ear, and his breath made Jiang Li’s ear tingle for a moment.
“All, you naughty rascal!” The two of them playfully wrestled in bed for a while before finally getting up.
Seeing that Zhou Chao had already changed his clothes, Jiang Li bit her lip and said, “Brother Chao, you go out first! 1 need to change.”
Zhou Chao flashed a mischievous smile. “1 won’t go out unless you give me a kiss!”
Seeing the stubborn Zhou Chao, Jiang Li reluctantly leaned in and kissed him. Unexpectedly, Zhou Chao pulled her into his arms, and Jiang Li accidentally pressed on a sensitive area!
“Ouch!” Zhou Chao felt a sharp pain, and Jiang Li realized she had accidentally hurt him. She quickly stood up.
“This teaches you not to be naughty!” Jiang Li looked at Zhou Chao in discomfort and couldn’t help but chuckle.
Jiang Li didn’t ask Zhou Chao to leave this time. Instead, she began to change her clothes. Considering that Zhou Chao had already witnessed everything the previous night, she didn’t find this minor incident bothersome.
Zhou Chao, captivated by her graceful figure, momentarily forgot the pain. Soon, Jiang Li finished changing her clothes and turned to see Zhou Chao still staring at her.
“Why are you still looking? Didn’t you say you wanted to go back early this morning?”
“Once I’ve packed up, 1’11 leave.” Zhou Chao got up from his chair and headed outside, carrying Jiang Li’s suitcase.
“Brother Chao, do you think Third Aunt will like me?” As they got closer to Fuzhou, Jiang Li grew increasingly nervous.
“Don’t worry, Third Aunt is a nice person. On New Year’s Eve, she kept talking about you and when she would get to meet you. If you appear in front of her, she’ll be thrilled!”
“Should 1 buy some gifts then?”
“No need for elaborate gifts, maybe just some fruits.”
“Just buying a few fruits might not be appropriate. What if it leaves a bad impression on Third Aunt?”
“It’ll be fine, trust me.”
“Sure.” Despite Zhou Chao’s advice against buying gifts, Jiang Li’s thoughts were in disarray as she tried to envision how to address Zhou Chao’s Third Aunt when they met.
Should she address her directly as “Third Aunt” or call her “Aunt”? As she thought about it, her mind became a jumble.
After about an hour, they arrived in Fuzhou. Zhou Chao drove to the fruit market and bought two boxes of seasonal fruits before heading to the Golden Coast.
“Brother Chao, I’m so nervous!” Zhou Chao held Jiang Li’s hand, and he could feel that her hand was slightly moist from nervousness.
“It’s okay! Take a deep breath; they are easy to talk to!” Jiang Li took a few deep breaths, trying to calm her nerves.
Seeing Jiang Li feeling better, Zhou Chao held her hand and carried the two boxes of fruits as they walked towards the door.
“Knock, knock, knock!” Zhou Chao gently knocked on the door, and Jiang Li anxiously looked at him.
“Click.” As the door opened, Jiang Li’s figure appeared before Guo Yan.
“Mom, sister-in-law is here!” Guo Yan saw Jiang Li and rushed into the house, calling out for her mother.
The scene amused Jiang Li, and her initial nervousness faded away.
“Come in.” Zhou Chao led the way with the fruits, and Jiang Li followed closely behind.
“Xiao Chao, is your girlfriend here?” Third Aunt’s voice came from inside the house, even though she hadn’t appeared yet.
“She’s here, just a bit shy,” Zhou Chao joked, earning him a playful glare from Jiang Li.
“Third Aunt!” Seeing the middle-aged woman coming out of the bedroom, Jiang Li quickly stood up and greeted.
“Oh, you’re so pretty! Zhou Chao is really fortunate to have such a good-looking girlfriend. Sit down, sit down!” Guo Yan warmly took a seat next to Jiang Li.
“What are you standing here for, young man? Why don’t you go and cook? Can’t you see we’re having a conversation?” Third Aunt scolded Zhou Chao, who was standing on the side, without much patience.
Zhou Chao smiled helplessly at her words and had no choice but to take off his coat and head to the kitchen..
