Mr. Bo, Madam Is Pregnant!

Chapter 330: Chapter 330: Humph~

Bo Jingshen’s heart ached terribly.

Finally, he couldn’t help himself and reached out to grab Su Lu’s hand, "Su Lu, I’m sorry, I was wrong. I really...made a huge mistake. You hate me, right? Hate me a little, punish me a little, and then find a day to forgive me, alright? It doesn’t matter if it takes a long time, I can wait. But please don’t not forgive me."

"You said you would never forgive. I’m really scared," Bo Jingshen said in a low voice.

No longer stubbornly insisting on being alone, he revealed his vulnerabilities and fears to Su Lu.

"Forever is too long, I’m really scared," Bo Jingshen murmured again, "so could it be shorter, even three or five years, I can wait."

Forever is too long.

But Su Lu seemed confused again, not continuing the topic or responding to Bo Jingshen’s words, instead staring intently at Bo Jingshen holding her hand.

Bo Jingshen thought she would be angry because of his rash contact.

Because he saw Su Lu’s frown getting tighter, and just as Bo Jingshen was about to let go, he heard Su Lu’s soft voice complain, "You didn’t even wipe your hands, grabbing me with them all oily... Gross."

This sudden shift almost made Bo Jingshen burst out laughing.

"Ah, I’m sorry. I forgot in my excitement," Bo Jingshen said.

Su Lu stared at her hand, then looked up at him, "Then let go."

Bo Jingshen didn’t let go, still holding her hand, and cleared his throat before shamelessly saying, "Let me wipe it for you."

Then, holding her hand with one hand and a wet wipe with the other, he carefully wiped each of her fingers clean.

While he was intently wiping her hands, he was caught off guard by Su Lu saying, "Is three to five years not long?"

"Wha... what?" Bo Jingshen suddenly looked up at her, unsure if it was his own illusion or if she had actually spoken.

Su Lu had no intention of repeating herself, causing Bo Jingshen to still stare at her incredulously.

Su Lu said, "I’m not eating anymore, it’s getting late, I need to go back."

Bo Jingshen really wanted to grab her shoulders or pull this woman into his arms to ask for clarity, to get a clear answer.

But he restrained himself.

"I’ll walk you home." Bo Jingshen waved to call the waiter over to pay the bill.

As Bo Jingshen took out his payment code ready for the waiter to scan, he was caught off guard again by Su Lu saying, "So, are you going to carry me back?"

Bo Jingshen was sure he had heard clearly this time, so without bothering about the waiter still waiting to scan the code, he turned first and agreed to her request, "Alright, I’ll carry you back."

Su Lu stood up a bit unsteadily, but it was only for a moment.

In earlier years, when Su Yukan used to take her here and there for social events, she had developed a habit.

Whenever there was even a slight unsteadiness or fogginess due to alcohol, those people would inevitably take advantage by offering a helping hand, or an excuse to send her off, and take advantage. So, Su Lu had developed the habit of keeping herself steady and upright, no matter how much she drank.

It was the same at this moment.

Bo Jingshen looked at her straight back and steady steps, not showing any sign of unsteadiness, and as they walked out of the lobster restaurant together, he was no longer sure if carrying her home was still necessary.

So, Bo Jingshen walked slowly, unhurriedly taking a few steps forward.

Su Lu was by his side, keeping pace with him.

But just as Bo Jingshen thought she no longer needed him to carry her.

The edge of his jacket was gently tugged with a slight force.

Bo Jingshen turned to look at her.

"Weren’t you going to carry me home? How can you go back on your word?" Su Lu frowned in confusion.

Bo Jingshen smiled, "I’ll carry you, right now."

He crouched down in front of her, and when the tender body leaned onto his back, Bo Jingshen’s eyes suddenly widened a bit, feeling the direct interaction of body heat.

As a result, when Bo Jingshen stood up, he couldn’t help but let out a soft sigh.

It was a sense of satisfaction.

It was as if he had picked up his entire world again.

Su Lu wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning on his shoulder from behind.

The evening breeze was gentle, making the summer night not so hot.

Bo Jingshen could smell hints of alcohol brought by the night wind from behind.

The background noise around them seemed to have quietened down so much that he could only hear her gentle breathing and his own pounding heartbeat.

"Su Xiaolu," Bo Jingshen called her.

Her voice was a bit muffled, "Hmm?"

"Have you been well these past few years?" Bo Jingshen asked.

The woman behind him didn’t speak, and he didn’t know if she had fallen asleep.

But after a while, Bo Jingshen heard her voice, "I don’t know."

She paused before continuing, "I don’t know what counts as well. If you mean compared to being Su Yukan’s daughter, then these years as my mother’s daughter, I have been well."

"But if you mean if I’ve been happy..." Su Lu lazily leaned more into his shoulder, "then I haven’t been well at all."

Bo Jingshen said softly, "I will treat you well, very well, in the future."

Su Lu remained silent.

Bo Jingshen added, "Don’t be unhappy, I will make you happy."

He thought Su Lu wouldn’t respond, but after a short while, he heard a very small syllable, though swept up in the night wind, he still heard it clearly.

It was a very soft, gentle "hmm~"

The tone seemed to carry a wave in it.

Bo Jingshen’s lips curled into a smile.

He carried her like that, step by step walking back.

Although her place was not close at all, he was happy to carry her like this forever, if possible.

However, they didn’t walk too far, just about four streets away.

The two didn’t talk much along the way, Bo Jingshen could hear her gentle breathing, originally thinking she had fallen asleep on his back.

But then he heard Su Lu speak, "My mom bought me a car, it’s still parked at the Lobster House parking lot."

"Hmm?" Bo Jingshen slightly turned his head, "Are you going to drive back?"

"Hmm," Su Lu hummed.

Bo Jingshen wasn’t reluctant at all, nor did he feel that carrying her across these four streets was tiring.

He just asked, "Are you hot?"

Su Lu said, "If you’re hot, you can put me down."

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Bo Jingshen heard that same wavy tone in her words.

"I’m not hot, I was thinking, if you felt hot, I’d buy you a drink from the convenience store on the roadside," said Bo Jingshen.

It was quiet behind him for several seconds before softly speaking out, "Then I want jasmine honey tea."
