Chapter 437: 404 On wedding night, be happy and joyful (2 updates)

They were almost back to the complex, and Tang Su was still ruminating over the expense when Lu Han eased the car into the underground parking garage. Reaching out, he squeezed her hand, "Wife, are you still upset about the cost?"

"Yeah, tonight’s dinner could cover a whole month’s living expenses for an ordinary family. If the Empress Dowager knew I was living this luxuriously after marriage, she would definitely scold me."

Being scolded wasn’t what she was afraid of, Tang Su was mainly distressed about the money.

Even if money was easy to come by, it didn’t grow on trees.

If it had, she wouldn’t have minded spending it.

But hard-earned money, whether it was from mental or physical labor, that was always hard-earned, no matter the amount.

"Once or twice on occasion isn’t too bad, we don’t do this every day. Besides, we only get married once in a lifetime, so it’s fine to splurge just this once. Don’t fret about it. From now on, your husband will work doubly hard to earn money, okay?"

After hearing what Lu Han said, Tang Su felt almost embarrassed to worry about the money anymore.

Actually, when you think about it from another angle, the reason everyone works hard to make money is to live a good life. If they’re able to enjoy life now, why be so tangled up about it?

Tang Su felt relieved, "Mmm, let’s both work hard together."

"Good."

Lu Han’s lips curled into a smile.

Tang Su also knew in her heart that from now on, she really didn’t need to live so frugally, but it was a tradition passed down from her parents to be thrifty. She was still somewhat unaccustomed to such extravagant spending habits.

Getting used to it would actually be pretty easy.

However, the precondition is that her income would have to keep up with her expenditure.

If her income stagnated and she only spent Lu Han and her parents-in-law’s money, she would feel insecure about it.

The two went upstairs. After stepping out of the elevator, Lu Han asked Tang Su, "Tired?"

Tang Su shook her head, "Not tired."

Tonight, they would officially be husband and wife. Would they sleep together, or continue to sleep separately?

Without realizing it, Tang Su found herself pondering this question.

If they slept together, under her current circumstances, she wouldn’t be able to fulfill her duties as a wife.

"Then help your husband move."

"...Okay."

Tang Su paused, then nodded with a bloom of a smile.

Lu Han took her to his place first, packed a basket with his daily home clothes, pajamas, slippers, toiletries, and razor, and brought them over.

As for the rest, it was left in place. It was easy to grab replacements if needed.

Then, they went to Tang Su’s place. She personally arranged Lu Han’s items one by one, and looking at the washstand with male and female toothbrushes, tooth mugs snuggled together, Tang Su felt that it finally felt like home.

Before, it was just a house that provided her a place to rest after a tiring day at work.

It was cold and empty, lacking the warmth of a home.

She never felt it before, but now Tang Su realized that without Lu Han, the life she thought was not too shabby was actually quite pitiful.

Once everything was arranged, Lu Han brought the pillows and quilts from the guest room into the master bedroom. The matching pillows sat side by side, and Lu Han embraced Tang Su, their heads gently leaning in.

Amidst their mingling breaths, Tang Su felt Lu Han’s moist lips touch hers...

**

After a long intimate moment, Tang Su had wrinkled Lu Han’s neat clothes. Lu Han sensed Tang Su’s breathing was labored, let go of her to allow her to breathe in some oxygen, and just as he was about to resume, an untimely phone call rang.

It was for Tang Su.

"Pick it up," Lu Han said, reluctance in his tone, but he let go of Tang Su to let her answer the phone.

When Tang Su stepped away, her legs were still a bit wobbly.

It was Shen Yi who had called, oblivious to the inconvenience.

Seeing Shen Yi’s incoming call, Tang Su rolled her eyes unconsciously. She really didn’t want to answer and felt like blocking her.

In the end, Tang Su answered anyway, "Hello, Sister Shen Yi—"

"Tang Su, didn’t you see the WeChat message I sent you? Can you talk right now?" Shen Yi asked.

"There were so many WeChat messages today I haven’t had the chance to reply to them one by one, sorry about that. It’s fine to talk now, what’s up?" Tang Su couldn’t imagine what was so urgent that Shen Yi couldn’t wait for her to check her messages and instead called her directly.

After letting go of Tang Su, Lu Han had gone downstairs to the kitchen.

"Of course it’s a big deal. Why were you in such a rush to get the certificate with Lu Han?" Shen Yi’s tone carried a hint of regret.

Tang Su: "..."

Tang Su had thought the call was to offer her congratulations but, listening to Shen Yi’s tone, it seemed not to be for blessings, but rather...

"It’s already been quite slow; it wasn’t rushed at all. I’ve liked him for a long time," she said.

"I know that, but I just found out that he and his ex-girlfriend were really close, and now in Beijing’s high society, there are rumors that Lu Han sees you as a substitute for his ex-girlfriend."

"Really? Is Beijing’s high society that bored? Didn’t they also spread rumors that my mother-in-law was a homewrecker before? Sister Shen Yi, these baseless rumors without evidence—I think you should just listen to them and not bother passing them on to me."

"No, Tang Su, I’m telling you this specially because I respect Wu Jie. Is this the thanks I get for my kindness? Why are you being like this?"

Shen Yi was speechless, feeling like Tang Su had just made her out to be a malicious gossip.

If it weren’t for her wanting to curry favor with Wu Jie, she wouldn’t care so much about Tang Su.

"Thanks for your kindness, but I really don’t need it. Also, I’ve already told you before, you and Wu Jie are not compatible. Wu Jie doesn’t like your type. You’d better give up sooner rather than waste your time."

"..."

Without waiting for Shen Yi to say anything, Tang Su hung up the phone and, for the moment, blocked Shen Yi.

On the day she and Lu Han got their marriage certificate, Shen Yi couldn’t even manage some kind words of congratulations but instead had to say things that annoyed her. Did she think that Tang Su couldn’t be just as irritating?

Besides, she had spoken the truth. If she continued to chase after Wu Jie, it would indeed be a waste of time.

If she heeded the advice, good for her; if she really didn’t, Tang Su couldn’t be bothered to care.

Tang Su was very annoyed. Displeasing people were displeasing at all times.

Hadn’t Shen Yi always lived in a big city?

With such low emotional intelligence, how had she even survived to this age?

Hadn’t anyone beaten her up?

When Lu Han came in with two cups of hot milk, Tang Su’s face was fuming. Handing her the milk, he said, "Drink it while it’s hot, be careful not to burn yourself."

"..."

Tang Su blew on it a couple of times and began to drink slowly.

"What’s wrong? What did Shen Yi say to make you so angry?" Lu Han wasn’t trying to pry; he just wanted to help her clear her mind.

It was their wedding night, and even though they couldn’t celebrate with a traditional wedding night, it was still their wedding night.

The wedding night was supposed to be joyful.

"I’m not wasting my energy getting upset over her. She thinks she can chase after Wu Jie? Really, she might as well suggest Wu Jie consider a match with Miss Wei downstairs."

Lu Han: "..."
