Chapter 81: I

Su Qingyue's reluctance was swallowed into Pei Huaiye's mouth.

He domineeringly gripped her slender waist, which could be spanned by a single hand.

The kissing was urgent and rough.

Su Qingyue couldn't fend him off, her swan-like neck, white as mutton-fat jade, arching slightly backward.

Her long eyelashes were beaded with moisture, her eyes hazy and innocent, and delicate, charming sounds spilled from her red lips, so alluring they drove one to madness.

Pei Huaiye eagerly demanded more kisses.

After a long while, he pulled back slightly.

His voice was unusually hoarse, and holding that soft, delicate hand... he begged with longing, "Be good, help me..."

Su Qingyue pouted, glared at Pei Huaiye, closed her glistening eyes, and as if admitting defeat, she complied.

After heavy, ragged breathing.

A low, muffled groan followed.

The west bedroom.

Following Su Qingyue's instructions, Pei Huaiye took out a jar of something like vanishing cream and gently applied it to her body.

"What is this stuff? Can you just use it like this?" Pei Huaiye asked, gently pecking at the exquisite little face before him.

Su Qingyue lifted her eyelids and lazily glared at him, "Do you think my skin is naturally this good? It still needs maintenance; it's the same principle as face cream."

Pei Huaiye massaged Su Qingyue's little hands, read the instructions on the jar carefully, and said ingratiatingly, "It's almost empty, I'll buy you some more tomorrow."

Su Qingyue turned over huffily, presenting her back to him, and pointed to her waist, signaling Pei Huaiye to massage it.

Her waist was already sore, and now her hands were weak and aching too.

Pei Huaiye was more than willing; he leaned over and first kissed Su Qingyue's crystal-clear, adorable ears, "Still angry? Then hit me!"

It was all hard muscle, what was there to hit?

Su Qingyue closed her eyes to rest.

Pei Huaiye massaged her from head to toe; Su Qingyue hummed in comfort a few times, and then her eyelids grew heavier and heavier.

Hearing Su Qingyue start to snore softly, Pei Huaiye smiled silently, kissed the top of her head with eyes full of doting, and fell into a happy sleep while holding the soft, delicate bundle.

The next morning.

The neighbor's rooster was crowing again. Pei Huaiye looked at the flushed little face beside him, leaned down to kiss her twice, and unable to bear waking her, he got up on tiptoe to cook.

Su Zhuangzhuang carried a small basket of vegetables and knocked on the door, "Auntie, time to get up."

Pei Huaiye opened the door and patted the little guy's head, "Keep it down, your aunt is still sleeping."

"Auntie is a big lazybones! Mom told me to give these vegetables to Auntie."

Pei Huaiye led the little guy into the kitchen and saw eggs, tomatoes, cucumbers, and a piece of meat in the basket.

Might as well cook some noodles and make a refreshing side dish. Pei Huaiye was in an exceptionally good mood and actually started chatting with little Zhuangzhuang.

"Zhuangzhuang, do you know how to tend the fire?"

Su Zhuangzhuang widened his eyes and shook his little head seriously, "I'm still a child, tending the fire is dangerous, I can't do that."

Pei Huaiye raised an eyebrow, "A man who can't do chores won't be able to get a wife in the future!"

Zhuangzhuang was innocent and naive, "What do I need a wife for?"

Thinking of Su Qingyue, Pei Huaiye's face was full of soft smiles. He washed and chopped the vegetables in one go, started the fire, and scrambled the tomatoes and eggs.

The water in the pot was about to boil, and Pei Huaiye was making the cucumber salad, "Zhuangzhuang, go wake your aunt up for breakfast."

Su Zhuangzhuang ran to the west side room, "Auntie, if you don't get up, the sun will burn your bottom!"

Su Qingyue rubbed her eyes, "Zhuangzhuang be good, let Auntie sleep for five more minutes."

"In five minutes, the noodles will be mushy." Zhuangzhuang swallowed his saliva.

Smelling the fragrance of the food and thinking about having to deal with Su Qianqian and go see the school today, Su Qingyue woke up instantly.

After washing up and sitting at the table, Su Qingyue's little face was full of surprise.

"You actually know how to cook? How come I didn't know?"

Su Qingyue's eyes were sparkling. Pei Huaiye raised an eyebrow, looking very mysterious, "Taste it."

It was simple boiled noodles, but every strand was coated in thick tomato sauce; the eggs were savory, and the cucumber was crisp and refreshing.

"Mmm~"

Before Su Qingyue had even swallowed the noodles, she let out a sigh of satisfaction.

Su Zhuangzhuang had already eaten in the morning, but now he took a bite and stopped to exclaim in wonder.

Pei Huaiye curled his lips into a smile, "I'll cook from now on. Whatever you want to eat, I'll learn how to make it for you."

Su Qingyue smiled sweetly and said affectionately, "Whoever has time will cook; you don't have to do it all the time."

Pei Huaiye felt as if his heart had been filled with honey. He covered Su Zhuangzhuang's face with his large palm and leaned over to kiss Su Qingyue's cheek.

He pulled away as soon as he touched her.

Then, like a child who had stolen a piece of candy, he was so happy his eyes squinted shut.

Su Qingyue glared at Pei Huaiye, "Take your hand away, you're going to suffocate Zhuangzhuang."

"I know what I'm doing."

Su Zhuangzhuang blinked, not knowing what had happened.

Su Qingyue and Pei Huaiye were pushing their bicycles out side-by-side when they ran into Su Qianqian.

"Sister, brother-in-law, where are you going?"

"To work." Pei Huaiye replied coldly, frowning with disdain, "Something the matter?"

Su Qianqian suppressed her anger and said with a beaming smile, "I came to ask Sister Qingyue for help. The exam is in two days, and Big Brother said before he left that you should help me."

"You go take the bus, we'll meet at the entrance of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative later."

"Isn't the salesperson exam coming up? Why do you want me to go to the Supply and Marketing Cooperative?"

Su Qingyue rubbed her forehead, "If you want to pass, just do as I say."

The Su family courtyard.

Su Qingxi had heard her sister-in-law say last night that she and Zhuangzhuang were going to school, so she got up early to practice writing.

The dictionary Su Qingyue brought back was very thick. She had taught her basic pinyin before, but she only knew simple characters for now and was learning very slowly.

Su Qingxi frowned and learned stroke by stroke.

It wasn't until Su Zhuangzhuang shouted outside that it was time to leave that Su Qingxi came out with her satchel.

"Qingxi, come quickly, sit on the back seat, I'll take you."

"Sister, are Zhuangzhuang and I both going to school in the city?"

"Yes, don't be afraid. You don't need to worry about tuition. You and Zhuangzhuang will be at the same school so you can look out for each other."

"Once we've picked out the school, I'll teach you how to ride a bicycle."

Su Qingxi hugged Su Qingyue's waist and acted sweetly, "Sister, you're so good."

"Silly girl, hey, A Ye, Pei Huaiye, ride slower, wait for me."

Pei Huaiye slowed down and rode side-by-side with Su Qingyue, while the two children on the back seats were laughing and playing.

They rode straight to the entrance of the Hongqi Supply and Marketing Cooperative, where Li Zilan and Su Qingwu had just finished delivering the vegetables.

Zhuangzhuang threw himself into Li Zilan's arms, and Su Qingyue parked her bicycle, "Sister-in-law, wait for me for a moment."

Su Qianqian followed Su Qingyue inside but was stopped, "You wait a moment too."

Su Qingyue went into the President's office and talked for a long time. An hour later, she came out and called Su Qianqian in.

Zhang Dongfeng asked with a serious expression, "You are Su Qianqian?"

Su Qingyue introduced her with a smile, "President, this is Su Qianqian. She is both smart and diligent. She will only observe for two days; whether she passes the exam the day after tomorrow depends entirely on her own ability."

Su Qianqian was dazed, and then she was taken by President Zhang to Jiang Meng.

"Comrade Jiang is a very experienced salesperson. For these two days, you will follow her to work, study hard, observe carefully, and practice your arithmetic when you go back."

Zhang Dongfeng also instructed Jiang Meng, "Su Qianqian is smart, we can't waste such talent. Jiang Meng, put some effort into training her well."

Jiang Meng and Su Qianqian both had sweet smiles on their faces, but in their hearts, they both wanted to curse Su Qingyue to hell.
