Before, he had accepted her kindness. Now, it was his turn to be nice to her. Rong Si couldn’t give her honeyed words, but he decided that he would express his love with actions instead.
Now that he was her boyfriend, he had to go all out.
Helpless, Su Jiu replied, “Okay, okay, Big Brother. Then you have to work hard to be a bigshot who doesn’t blink when it comes to spending money. Otherwise, I might spend all your money on food!”
Rong Si laughed at her. He then looked at her lovingly. “Yes, I’ll work hard to earn money.”
She is right. How am I going to give her a good life if I don’t earn money?
Su Jiu had grown up as pampered as a princess. If she were to live with him in the future, he could not let her be worse off than she was now.
After Rong Si paid the bill, the waiter smiled. “Thank you! Please take care. Remember to take your valuables with you.”
Su Jiu looked around in case she had left something behind. However, Rong Si reached out to her, and his lips curled into a breathtaking smile.
Then, in a magnetic, gentle voice he said, “Let’s go, ‘valuables’.”
Su Jiu was speechless.
Ahhh!
She blushed and put her hand in Rong Si’s. Rong Si immediately tightened his grip. Under the waiter’s teasing gaze, she let him lead her out of the restaurant.
***
I think I made a mistake.’
Su Jiu thought she really shouldn’t have ordered that much food. Now, she felt extremely full. She had been clutching her stomach the whole time she walked after coming out of the restaurant. After a while, she was unable to walk.
Su Jiu stopped and tugged at Rong Si’s sleeve. “Big Brother…”
Rong Si immediately turned to her.
“What is it?” he asked deliberately, raising his eyebrows.
“I think I ate too much.”
Rong Si didn’t look surprised, as if he had expected this. “What about it?”
“Listen to yourself. What kind of tone is that?” Su Jiu pouted. “What do you plan to do now?”
Rong Si suppressed a smile. “Nothing.”
Su Jiu knew that he was saying this on purpose. Yet, pretending to be unhappy, she snorted. “Is this how you’re going to be a boyfriend? You’re so incompetent. Forget it. I’m disappointed in you. I don’t want you anymore. I’m going to find another boyfriend!”
“Dream on.” Rong Si reached out and tapped her forehead lightly. Then, he concernedly asked, “Shall I massage it for you?”
“No.” Su Jiu looked at the people passing by and said in an embarrassed voice, “If you massage it for me… won’t people think that I’m pregnant?”
Her stomach was now bloated. She might really get mistaken for a pregnant girl.
That would be awkward.
“So?” Rong Si objected. “You’re eventually going to be.”
Wh… What?
Going to be?
A Baby?
Su Jiu’s face turned red, and her heart beat faster. Is the little villain… thinking too far ahead?
She curled her lips. “How can you be so sure I will be? What if… what if we break up one day?”
“Break up?” Rong Si stared at her, his expression turning serious.
Instantly aware of the dangerous air he was emanating, Su Jiu laughed dryly. “I’m not trying to break up with you. I’m… just joking. Don’t take it seriously!”
“Don’t make such a joke. I don’t like jokes like that.” Rong Si sounded unusually serious.
He had said that since he had decided on her in this life, he would like only her and give her his entire heart.
