Chapter 38: Chapter 38 Good morning, Mrs. Fu!

When the alarm clock rang, Ye Li groggily reached out for her phone and accurately turned off the alarm.

Then, she burrowed into the warm embrace and waited for the next alarm to sound.

The whole movement was fluid and smooth.

A muffled chuckle sounded overhead, and Ye Li abruptly opened her eyes, only then realizing something was off.

This was not her bedroom in the Ye Mansion.

Nor was it her own bedroom.

This was Lishan Mansion!

Looking up, she met Fu Yanci’s smiling eyes.

Instinctively recalling the awkward closeness of the previous morning, Ye Li, faster than her mind could react, sat up from his embrace with a bashful rub of her hair, "Um, I... didn’t talk in my sleep last night, did I? Didn’t kick you, right?"

Talk in sleep?

The phrase "thanks, husband"?

As for kicking...

As she came to her senses, the absence in her arms was immediate, and Fu Yanci shook his head, "No!"

Phew!

Ye Li breathed a sigh of relief and hurried into the bathroom before the awkward atmosphere could spread.

Her gaze landed on the mirror, and Ye Li paused.

Her lips were a rich red, making her skin seem even brighter, as if it were glowing.

Her lower lip looked as if it were filled with dew, slightly pouted—somehow giving off a sexy pouty look.

She pursed her lips, feeling a slight tingle.

It was as if last night, in her dreams, she had tasted something delicious and had savored it endlessly.

But, she definitely hadn’t!

With a mind full of question marks, Ye Li finished washing up and went downstairs, where Fu Yanci was already waiting for her at the dining table.

When she looked up, she saw Aunt Lan give her a glance, pause, and then smile even more broadly.

???

Ye Li bit into a bun and asked with an utterly puzzled face, "Aunt Lan, what is it?"

So cheerful this early, was there some good news?

"Nothing..."

Glancing subconsciously at Fu Yanci, Aunt Lan smiled, "Seeing you eat well and sleep well makes Aunt Lan happy! Eat up, you should be leaving soon."

"Oh."

Ye Li nodded and focused on her meal.

Ten minutes later, full-bellied Ye Li carried a thermos of hot milk from Aunt Lan and followed Fu Yanci out the door.

At seven in the winter morning, the sky was still dark.

The Maybach stopped at the West Gate of Imperial University when the distant sky was just beginning to lighten.

The milk in the thermos was all gone, Ye Li put the cup back in its holder and turned to Fu Yanci, "When you get home tonight, remember to bring the cup back to Aunt Lan to wash, otherwise it might start to smell if left in the car."

Fu Yanci nodded, "Okay."

"I have no classes Friday afternoon, so I’ll just go back by myself; you needn’t come pick me up."

"Okay."

Even in the dim light, the sudden softness in Fu Yanci’s demeanor, his eyes seemingly tinted with a smile, seemed to brighten the surrounding atmosphere.

It was as if, no matter what she said, he would be endlessly patient and respond with an "okay."

Ye Li couldn’t help but frown slightly. "Fu Yanci, is there anything you want to tell me?"

No. As long as you are fine, that’s all that matters.

Words at the tip of his tongue turned as Fu Yanci reversed and said, "Of course."

Ye Li looked up.

In the driver’s seat, the man raised a hand to her head.

Expecting a pat on her head: Ye Li, study hard!

The corners of Ye Li’s mouth had lifted, already prepared for that "okay."

In the next instant, the man’s palm slid to the back of her head.

The handsome face suddenly drew close.

Ye Li’s heart inexplicably skipped a beat.

Next, his lips landed on hers.

"Good morning, Mrs. Fu!"

A... a good morning kiss?

But it had been a long time since they had gotten out of bed and said good morning!

Her heart pounding nervously, Ye Li even forgot to close her eyes.
