Chapter 82: What if Miss Zhu is pregnant?

In the unlit room, the man's footsteps were steady, landing on the wooden floor so lightly that they seemed to make no sound at all.

The light shining obliquely from the floor-to-ceiling window fell upon him, with a wisp resting on the eyelids of the woman in his arms.

The man frowned slightly and turned his body a little to walk toward the large bed in the middle of the room.

But the moment she touched the bed, Zhu Yuan drifted awake.

Sheng Yu's thin lips pressed together, and he frowned in displeasure.

Why was she like a child, with that annoying habit of waking up the moment she touched the bed!

"I don't want to spend the night here; I want to go home."

As soon as she opened her eyes, she recognized that this was not her home; once her vision adjusted, she knew this was the Hot Spring Villa, Sheng Yu's room.

The moment she opened her mouth, she said something Sheng Yu did not want to hear.

"Not allowed."

He leaned down, bracing his hands on either side of her, his dark eyes dangerously captivating. "Last time you said you had to go back no matter what; me giving in to you once doesn't mean I will every time."

The man's thin lips pressed against the corner of her mouth, and Zhu Yuan began to tremble uncontrollably; she was still in some pain, that soreness making her very uncomfortable, and she clutched the bedsheets beneath her tightly.

"Still want to leave?" The man's low, hoarse voice carried a soul-captivating allure.

Zhu Yuan's heart tightened in waves.

She understood what the man meant: if she insisted on leaving, he would keep at it until she was obedient.

There was no room for choice.

Seeing the woman beneath him with her delicate brows tightly furrowed, she shook her head obediently.

The darkness in Sheng Yu's eyes deepened a few shades.

Two minutes later, he returned to the bedside in black silk pajamas; as soon as Zhu Yuan's half-closed eyes opened, the man pulled back the quilt, lay down, and pulled her tightly into his arms.

With her back pressed against the man's hard, warm chest, Zhu Yuan went rigid all over and held her breath.

"Don't make me feel like I'm sleeping with a corpse."

The man's voice was exceptionally low, and Zhu Yuan felt the vibration of his chest cavity against her back.

She remained stiff as a board.

She had never had such a clear-headed moment while being held by him like this.

They were not lovers, yet they were doing the most intimate of things.

This feeling was very strange and made her feel panicked.

She suddenly remembered something and whispered a sentence.

But the man holding her from behind did not speak.

Just as she thought the man hadn't heard and wanted to say it again.

The hand around her waist suddenly moved upward, cupping her with five fingers, and without a word, he turned her over; his tall frame pressed her into his embrace, and he lowered his head to forcefully invade her mouth.

Kissing her until her brain was oxygen-deprived, he stroked her slightly swollen, upturned red lips while peeling off her clothes.

"Eat it after daybreak."

……

The sky was bright.

Sheng Yu opened his eyes, his face showing not a hint of fatigue, only the refreshed satisfaction of being fully sated.

He looked at the woman in his arms who had long since been exhausted and was now sleeping soundly.

He didn't know how long he had been staring, when the person in his arms murmured, "Don't..."

Sheng Yu narrowed his eyes.

Was she dreaming of him again?

After staring at her face for a while longer, he gently placed her onto the soft pillow and pulled back the quilt to get up.

He turned his head to glance at the exquisite, pink-white skin of her body beneath the quilt, his hand gripping the quilt tightening slightly, before he pulled the quilt up, covering even the woman's head, then turned and strode toward the walk-in closet with his long legs.

Doctor Qiao Mai received a call early in the morning.

The man's low, magnetic voice came through, "Send over the thing you gave her last time."

"Are you referring to the Vitamin?" Doctor Qiao Mai asked tentatively.

"Mm."

After hanging up the phone, Doctor Qiao Mai was completely awake.

He packed his things and drove to the Hot Spring Villa himself.

When he entered the room, he saw the man sitting on the sofa in black loungewear, a cigarette burning between his fingertips.

His whole person exuded a sense of despondent coldness.

"Young Master Yu."

Doctor Qiao Mai walked over and placed a box containing a transparent pill in front of the man.

The man lowered his eyes to glance at it and stubbed out the cigarette.

As long as she took what he gave her, she wouldn't go back to taking that real Medicine.

"Young Master Yu..." Doctor Qiao Mai hesitated, "What if Miss Zhu is pregnant?"

He truly felt that given Zhu Yuan's temper, the consequences of being deceived like this would be very serious.

The man swept a sharp gaze at him and asked him in return.

"What do you suggest I do?"

He didn't look at him again and got up to walk toward the second floor.

Doctor Qiao Mai's expression was heavy.

It was clear that protective measures could have been taken, yet Young Master Yu insisted on doing something so extreme.

He tried to see through the young man's intentions, but having followed Sheng Yu for seven years, he had never truly understood him.

But at this moment, he understood what Sheng Yu meant.

If she were pregnant, then she should give birth to the child.

But given the situation of the Sheng Family, how could such a thing be allowed to happen?

……

After Zhu Yuan woke up, she saw a glass of water and some pills on the nightstand and swallowed the pills without a second thought.

She sat on the large bed, feeling fresh and clean, wearing one of Sheng Yu's pajamas; it was so loose that when she propped her hands on the bed, the collar slipped off one shoulder, revealing her fair, rounded shoulder and the tooth marks that had not yet fully faded.

When Sheng Yu opened the door and walked in, he saw this scene.

His eyes darkened slightly.

"Trying to seduce someone the moment you wake up?"

The man closed the door behind him.

Zhu Yuan hurriedly pulled her collar back up and said nothing; what the hell kind of seduction was that?

As she looked up, she noticed a puppy following behind Sheng Yu.

Its little head wobbled as it walked, and just by looking at it, one could imagine its milky, sweet scent.

It was so small, following behind the tall Sheng Yu, that it was no wonder she hadn't noticed it at first.

Seeing her eyes light up the moment she saw the puppy, Sheng Yu raised an eyebrow slightly.

You like it?

Stopping his steps, he leaned over, grabbed the puppy by the scruff of its neck, and lifted it up.

"Whimper, whimper..."

The puppy immediately began to struggle, clawing and yelping.

Zhu Yuan watched with a start, jumped off the bed without hesitation, and snatched the dog from his hands.

"It's okay, it's okay." She turned her body slightly, gently stroking the puppy's head to soothe it.

The puppy first lifted its head, looking at her with a pair of round, wide eyes, then let out a whimper and rested its head against her palm.

Zhu Yuan's heart was melting.

A person as bad as Sheng Yu actually raised such an obedient dog.

"What's your name?"

Hearing her voice unconsciously turn soft and sweet, a strange feeling spread through the man's chest.

"It's called Ungrateful Wretch."

Hearing the man's voice, Zhu Yuan paused her stroking and turned her back to him.

She ignored him.

Sheng Yu sneered in his heart.

The more Zhu Yuan looked at the puppy, the more she liked it.

"Feiyuan."

The puppy in her arms heard the man's voice, suddenly lifted its head to look around, and tried to climb over Zhu Yuan's shoulder.

Fearing it would fall, Zhu Yuan quickly turned her body and pulled it back into her arms.

So its name was Feiyuan.

For a moment, she felt inexplicably flushed and embarrassed.

Because she had been chubby before the third grade of elementary school, and her grandfather often called her Fatty Yuan.

Feiyuan, Fatty Yuan.

Sheng Yu narrowed his eyes, and the moment the puppy's head rubbed against Zhu Yuan's chest, he grabbed it by the scruff of its neck and took it away.

He took the opportunity to wrap his arm around her slender waist and warned, "The places on your body can only be touched by your man."
