In a high-end and luxurious Western restaurant, with elegant and soft jazz music playing, Gu Ao, holding Gu Dan Dan's slender waist, walked together into a private room on the second floor.
"Is... is... is this place very... very expensive?" Sitting down, she glanced around the room, her heart starting to feel uneasy.
"What do you think?" He let out a light laugh.
"It's... it's too much of a waste, we could have just..." There was no need to come to such a fancy place. As long as she was with him, even a simple meal at home would make her extremely grateful.
"What would you like to drink?" Gu Ao, holding the menu, said to the restaurant manager nearby, "Get me a glass of whiskey and bring her a glass of juice."
"Yes, Mr. Gu."
"Gu Ao..."
"I acquired this restaurant last year. Now, it belongs to our family."
"O-our... family's?" Two rosy clouds appeared on her cheeks. Gu Dan Dan pursed her lips, wanting to smile but feeling shy to show her happiness in front of Gu Ao.
"Dan Dan, everything of mine is yours, but you can only be mine." Looking at her faint smile, Gu Ao felt a bit puzzled. She was such an easily satisfied little woman.
"Mm, mm." She was his, of course. Gu Dan Dan nodded vigorously, acting naturally silly.
Gu Ao pursed his lips, watching his silly woman, his good mood hard to conceal.
After the dishes were served, Gu Dan Dan looked at the table full of Western food, with various plates and dishes, feeling a bit dazed and frowning. She had never eaten Western food before, and she had never used a knife and fork either. At home, maybe Gu Ao knew she wasn't used to Western food, so he always asked the servants to prepare Chinese meals. She looked at the medium-rare steak in confusion, not knowing how to start.
Noticing her embarrassment, Gu Ao picked her up and placed her on his lap, his strong arm encircling her tightly. He held the knife and fork, cutting the steak on the plate, and then fed it into her little mouth bit by bit. In this posture, she seemed like a young child just learning to speak, needing an adult to hold and coax her into eating.
His chest was against her back as he served her. He seemed to enjoy it, pressing against her pink earlobe and murmuring in a hoarse voice, "Is it delicious?"
"Mm... I... I can do it myself." Her ear was filled with his warm and moist breath, and a rosy glow gradually spread across her face. She tried to挣扎 (struggle) and jump down from his lap, but her body was firmly held by him.
Gu Ao would not agree. He turned her face, looked at her greasy little lips, and gave an evil smile. He got close to her, sucked her tender lips, and his舌尖 (tip of the tongue) lightly licked the oil stains on her lips, as if she were the real delicious dessert.
"Someone might come in, don't..." Gu Dan Dan licked her wet lips, panting slightly, her shy face showing an awkward yet beautiful smile.
"Where do you want to go after dinner?" He pinched her tender cheeks, his voice full of surging passion, burning her snowy skin on her neck.
"Any... anywhere." Being with him, where wasn't the same?
Gu Ao's chin rested in her neck hollow, his lips and tongue continuously teasing her ear, and his hand had already slid into her collar, playing with her breasts, squeezing and pinching them in his hand, "Dan Dan..."
"I... I want to go home!" She quickly pressed his hand, or else she would be in big trouble!
"Go home?" He asked in a low and hoarse voice.
"Don't... don't think乱七八糟 (all sorts of nonsense), I..." She held the collar of her clothes, silent, her face flushed.
Today was her birthday. Even if he was eager, he had to hold back. No matter how she had spent the past years, now that she was his, he would naturally do his best to spoil her and make up for her past unhappiness.
"Is there anything you want to buy? Hmm? Tell me, today you are in charge." Usually, he was quite busy with company affairs. Today, taking advantage of her birthday, he also wanted to compensate her well.
"I... I don't know." She had never dared to think about celebrating her birthday. In the past, as long as she could eat her fill and sleep soundly, she was more than satisfied. Her eyes flickered with a bit of light, how could this man not move her, "Gu Ao..."
In the afternoon, he took her to the cinema. She pointed to a children's movie on the poster. He frowned, his face dark, and he glanced at her with anger. But in the end, he still bought the tickets and sat with her in the theater.
She held the popcorn and watched the movie seriously, occasionally傻笑 (silly laughing) a few times, her two thin legs swinging from time to time. She was still a child who hadn't grown up. She watched the screen, while he gazed at her without moving his eyes. She could laugh so happily watching a movie, but when facing him, she was both stuttering and timid. There was an unbearable irritation in his heart.
After leaving the cinema, Gu Dan Dan followed behind Gu Ao, holding the leftover popcorn. Seeing a cotton candy stall not far away, her eyes闪烁 (flashed) with light again, her steps getting smaller and smaller, and she simply stopped, staring blankly at other children licking cotton candy.
Gu Ao turned his head and saw her silly look, "Want to eat too?"
"Mm." She nodded, looking up at him with anticipation.
What she wanted had always been very simple.
Having done many foolish things, he didn't care about doing one more. Gu Ao held Gu Dan Dan's hand and walked towards the stall. He dropped a few coins, put the cotton candy in her hand, and finally glared at her angrily for a few seconds. She smiled shyly, he walked forward ignoring her, and she jogged to catch up with him.
What men cared about most was their face, especially him. But today, he had lost all his dignity. Gu Dan Dan was really a little (demoness) who could (trouble) him!
...
Gu Ao sent Gu Dan Dan home and then hurried to the company, where a pile of decisions were waiting for him to make up his mind. This day had cost him a lot of time.
She waved to Gu Ao and happily ran out of the car. But as soon as she opened the door, she saw Gu Ao's mother...
"Mrs... Mrs. Gu."
Seeing the uneaten cotton candy in Gu Dan Dan's hand, the pleasant look on Gu's mother's face slightly darkened, "What are you holding in your hand? Throw it away immediately."
"It was bought by Gu Ao..."
"What does this look like? You are already our Gu family's publicly acknowledged daughter-in-law. In the future, you are not allowed to do these childish things anymore! If others see it, what will they say?"
"I understand." Gu Dan Dan lowered her head, staring at the cotton candy in her hand.
"Dan Dan, have you finished all the medicine I gave you last time?" Wheeling her chair, Gu's mother approached Gu Dan Dan, the anger on her face gradually dissipating.
"He... he doesn't let me drink it..." Gu Dan Dan glanced at Gu's mother with difficulty.
Gu's mother was angry for a while. Her son always loved to oppose her. Then she held Gu Dan Dan's hand with concern, "Is there still no news about your stomach?"
