Ch.375 Your Promises Don’t Count (2)
Shen Xiuqi was amused by her gestures and expressions. He burst into laughter, and took big strides towards her with his long legs, like a cheetah striding over with agility, and went along with Su Yaya's performance as he said: "Scream for help, try to scream for help, even if you scream at the top of your lungs, no one will come to your rescue!"
Su Yaya trembled in response, part of her was acting, but the other part of her was frightened. If Shen Xiuqi really wanted to bully her, no one would come to her rescue no matter how she screamed!
The thought of it was scary. Su Yaya met Shen Xiuqi's eyes that glistened in danger, and she immediately chickened out, and said smartly: "My love, don't be like this, you’ll frighten me."
Shen Xiuqi’s soft voice, sounded like someone was swishing a feather around his ears, it felt both itchy and numb, and this feeling spread all the way to his heart, as it tugged at his heartstrings, he was really tempted to bully her until she cried and screamed at the top of her lungs.
Su Yaya looked at Shen Xiuqi who approached, with a sweet smile on her face, "My love, you see,
I'm so exhausted, let’s just call it a day and go to bed early. There are still many things to do tomorrow, don’t you agree? "
Shen Xiuqi stretched out his hand to grab her wrist, looked at her with a smile in his eyes, and went along with her words: "You’re right, it's late now, and we’re all exhausted, we should go to bed early."
"So, so……" Su Yaya pulled on her wrist, trying to pull her hand out of Shen Xiuqi's grip, but she didn't succeed to do so, so she could only look at Shen Xiuqi pitifully, and gulped: "I want to wash up."
"Okay." Shen Xiuqi nodded, Su Yaya secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but she was in joy for only a few seconds, when she heard Shen Xiuqi continue on: "Let’s go together."
"You……" Before Su Yaya could finish her words of protest, she was pulled into the bathroom by Shen Xiuqi.
Su Yaya stood in the bathroom, watched as Shen Xiuqi turned on the hot water, adjusted the temperature, and let the hot water run, then he took out a cup to fill it up. He squeezed some toothpaste on the toothbrush and handed it to her. His movements were as smooth as flowing water, he has done this many times before, and was extremely swift at it.
"Why are you in a daze?" Shen Xiuqi reminded her with a smile when he noticed that she was frozen still and did not take the toothbrush from him.
"Oh……" Su Yaya then came back to her senses. She took the toothbrush from him and started to brush her teeth and wash her face. She thought she would be kept awake by Shen Xiuqi again tonight. Fortunately, things didn't seem to be the case, he still had a conscience.
The conscientious Shen Xiuqi was very considerate over her hard work. He didn't bully her anymore that night, and just hugged her in his arms and slept.
Su Yaya got a good night's sleep, which she rarely does and didn't get up until almost noon. During this period of time, no one came to wake her, and even Chengcheng didn't bother her.
When she got up and was ready to head out, she happened to bump into Mother Su and Father Su, who were having a conversation as they sat in the main hall. She walked over and asked Mother Su, "Where is Xiuqi and Chengcheng?"
Mother Su said, "Xiuqi took Chengcheng to the indoor swimming pool for a swim."
Children loved to play in the water, and swimming was good for the body. Chengcheng had picked up swimming ever since he was born and has never stopped.
Su Yaya said: "I'll go look for them."
By the time Su Yaya got to the outside of the indoor swimming pool, she could hear Chengcheng’s giggles coming from inside. It seemed that the father and son pair were having fun in the swimming pool.
When Su Yaya walked in, she saw the fair-skinned and chubby Chengcheng with a float around his neck, his hands and feet moving around swiftly in the water. Shen Xiuqi stood beside him, as he waved to him, and urged him to swim over to him. Every time Chengcheng swam to his side, he would laugh happily, and his giggles echoed around the whole indoor swimming pool.
Shen Xiuqi turned around and saw that Su Yaya was standing by the pool, and asked her, "Do you want to get in the water?”
