On the first day of school, the school beauty in black stockings took me to a hotel.

"Let's go grocery shopping." Liu Yu sat down on the edge of the bed, looking at her. "Does it still hurt?"

Su Wanqing blushed and shook her head: "It doesn't hurt anymore."

"real?"

Su Wanqing lowered her head and whispered, "Yeah. It's just that my back... is a little sore."

Liu Yu smiled and ruffled her hair: "Then get some rest today."

Su Wanqing nodded: "Yes. I want to eat your boiled fish."

"I've bought all the groceries. Let's have breakfast now. I made fried egg toast, and it's on the table."

"Carry me." Su Wanqing reached out her hand.

Liu Yu bent down, picked her up, and carried her to the dining table.

"Eat."

After breakfast, Liu Yu cleared the plates, and Su Wanqing leaned on the island counter, propping her head up with her hands and watching him.

"What are you looking at?" Liu Yu asked.

"My boyfriend is so handsome. He's even more handsome when he's cooking."

Liu Yu laughed: "If you keep looking at me like that, I can't keep doing this."

Why?

"Because I want to kiss you again."

Su Wanqing blushed: "Then you do it."

Liu Yu dried his hands, walked over, cupped her face, and kissed her.

After the kiss, Su Wanqing leaned against him and said, "Liu Yu, I feel so happy."

"Me too."

The two hugged for a while, then Liu Yu said, "I'm going to make boiled fish. You can lie down on the sofa."

"I want to see you do it."

"Then you just watch."

Liu Yu began processing the fish, removing the scales, gutting it, and slicing it.

The movements were very practiced; it was obvious that the person had trained before.

Su Wanqing lay on the island platform, staring at him without blinking.

"Your Majesty, I didn't expect you to be in such good health."

"What?"

"The battery life is amazing. The difference in physical fitness is truly remarkable. Keep it up, keep training!"

Liu Yu blushed: "Su Wanqing, you..."

"What did I do? I was praising you."

"The way you're praising me... could easily lead people to misunderstand."

"It was crooked to begin with. But to be honest, His Majesty performed very well last night and deserves praise."

Liu Yu suddenly remembered something: "Oh right, when did you buy those condoms?"

"I paid for the hotel room the first time we went there together, but who knew you'd have such a low alcohol tolerance and be such a coward!"

Liu Yu was surprised and looked up: "Su Wanqing, I didn't expect that the first time you asked me to go out, it would be like you wanted to possess me!"

"So what? Pursuing your own happiness, what's wrong with that! You dare say you didn't want that back then!"

Liu Yu smiled and said, "I do want to, but I definitely don't have the guts!"

Su Wanqing: "Tch, I've flirted with you so much, and you still won't take the bait. I thought you were just incompetent!"

Liu Yu rolled his eyes at Su Wanqing: "So, what do you think of my abilities now? Amazing, right?!"

Su Wanqing gave a thumbs up: "Amazing!"

Liu Yu smiled and lowered his head, continuing to cut the fish.

Su Wanqing looked at Liu Yu and smiled even more happily.

The boiled fish took a full hour to cook.

Liu Yu strictly followed the steps taught by his father: marinating the fish fillets, stir-frying the base sauce, cooking the side dishes, and finally drizzling hot oil over them.

When the fragrant boiled fish was served, Su Wanqing's mouth watered.

"It smells so good!" she exclaimed, sitting on the sofa with longing eyes.

Liu Yu also served two bowls of rice.

"start."

Su Wanqing couldn't wait to pick up a piece of fish, blow on it, and put it in her mouth.

"Mmm!! Delicious!"

"real?"

The fish was tender and flavorful, with a spicy and savory taste; it was indeed delicious.

"How does it compare to what my dad makes?"

Su Wanqing thought for a moment and said honestly, "Uncle's cooking is delicious."

Liu Yu: "..."

He put down his chopsticks: "Then I won't do it."

"No, no, no! Your Majesty, I know I was wrong! What you made was delicious! Absolutely delicious! The best in the world!"

"It's too late. My heart is broken and needs healing."

"How will you compensate me?"

"Think about it."

Su Wanqing's eyes darted around, and she leaned over to kiss him on the cheek: "Like this?"

"not enough."

They kissed again.

"It's still not enough."

Su Wanqing thought for a moment, put down her chopsticks, straddled his lap, and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"How about this?" She kissed his lips.

After the kiss, they were both a little out of breath.

"Is that enough?" Su Wanqing asked.

Liu Yu looked at her moist lips and nodded: "That's enough for now."

Su Wanqing smiled, got off his lap, and continued eating the fish.

The two ate and chatted, finishing off the entire pot of boiled fish.

"I'm so full... but I'm so happy."

Liu Yu cleared away the dishes and took them to the kitchen to wash.

Su Wanqing watched his busy figure, her heart filled with emotion.

When Liu Yu finished washing the dishes and came out, Su Wanqing was already lying on the sofa, almost asleep.

"Tired?" Liu Yu asked.

"Hmm... I want to take a nap."

"Then go to bed."

"Hold me."

Liu Yu picked her up again and carried her into the bedroom.

Put her on the bed and cover her with the blanket.

"Go to sleep. I'll stay with you."

Aren't you going to sleep?

"I'm not sleepy. I'll watch you sleep."

"No, I want you to sleep with me, a meat-themed one!"

...(8,000 words omitted here)...

Their tender and affectionate feelings were deeply intertwined.

Our love is as deep as lips and teeth.

The red hair sways in the spring waves.

Her beautiful face was draped around his waist and neck.

Two hours later, Liu Yu looked at the sleeping Su Wanqing.

He pulled a small box out of his pocket; he had gone out of his way to buy it at the Tiffany boutique when he went grocery shopping.

T smile necklace.

He gently lifted a corner of the blanket and put the necklace around her neck.

I fastened the buckle and adjusted its position.

The necklace hung between her collarbones, complementing her skin tone perfectly.

Su Wanqing woke up at three o'clock in the afternoon.

She sat up, rubbed her eyes, and felt something on her neck.

Looking down, I saw it was a necklace.

The pendant features a small smiley face design and is studded with diamonds.

She froze, got out of bed, and ran to the mirror.

The necklace is exquisite, with a radiant smile and diamonds that sparkle in the sunlight.

She stared at herself in the mirror for a long time.

Then he turned and rushed out of the bedroom.

Liu Yu was watching TV on the sofa when he heard footsteps and looked up.

Su Wanqing stood at the bedroom door, wearing a white shirt, bare legs, and the necklace around her neck.

Her eyes were red as she looked at Liu Yu.

"What's wrong? Don't you like it?"

Su Wanqing shook her head, walked up to him, and threw herself into his arms.

Her voice choked with emotion as she said, "I like it... I really like it..."

Liu Yu put his arm around her and said, "I'm glad you like it."

Su Wanqing looked up at him, tears streaming down her face: "But... this necklace, it cost 27,000... last night's dinner cost 3,000... all of your 30,000 bonus..."

Liu Yu wiped away her tears: "If you're happy, then it's worth it."

Su Wanqing hugged him tightly: "I'm so happy... I'm really so happy... Liu Yu, I'm so lucky to have met you..."

"I'm very happy too," Liu Yu said softly.

Su Wanqing looked up and kissed him.

It was bittersweet, with salty tears.

After the kiss, Su Wanqing leaned on his shoulder and touched the necklace around her neck.

"Liu Yu, you're so good to me."

"You're even better to me. You sponsor the basketball team, train with me, cheer me on... You've done so much more than I have."

"That's different. You bought this necklace... with all your bonuses."

"The bonus was a pleasant surprise. Without you, there would be no bonus. So, using it to buy you a gift is the most appropriate thing to do."

Su Wanqing looked at him, and tears fell again.

"Stop crying. If you keep crying, you'll look like a little kitten."

Su Wanqing buried her face in his chest: "I'll just cry. My boyfriend is so good, can't I be touched?"

"Fine, fine. Go ahead and cry. I'll lend you my clothes to wipe your tears."

Su Wanqing was amused and playfully punched him.

Just then, Liu Yu's phone rang.

Liu Yu took out his phone; it was Teacher Xu Yao.

"Shh, it's Teacher Xu."

Liu Yu cleared his throat and sat up straight: "Hello, Teacher Xu."

"Liu Yu, did I disturb you?"

"No, no, please tell me, teacher."

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Wanqing's eyes darted around, and a mischievous smile appeared on her lips.

She slipped one of her small hands under the hem of Liu Yu's clothes.

"!!!" Liu Yu froze.

Su Wanqing returned his innocent smile, her fingers beginning to wander restlessly.

Liu Yu gasped, his breathing instantly becoming erratic.

"Liu Yu? What's wrong? Your voice sounds a bit strange. Is the signal bad? Or... are you feeling unwell?"

"No, no! Teacher Xu, I'm fine!"

Seeing his expression, Su Wanqing laughed so hard her shoulders shook.

"Here's the thing, Liu Yu. The second National College Student Singing Competition is about to start, and the city attaches great importance to it, with very high standards. Our school's Youth League Committee and Arts Department have held several meetings, taking into account your image, strength, and stage presence, and everyone unanimously recommends that you represent Tsinghua and Peking Universities in the competition."

Representing Tsinghua and Peking Universities in a competition? A university student singing competition?

Liu Yu's mind raced.

In the past, he might have considered it, but now that the basketball game had just ended, he just wanted to spend time with Su Wanqing.

This kind of activity requires a lot of time to prepare for...

"Ms. Xu, thank you for the school and teachers' trust in me, but I just finished a basketball game, and I also want to catch up on my studies. Besides, this game..."

Before he could finish speaking, he felt a burning sensation in his ears.

Su Wanqing leaned closer, her lips nibbling at his earlobe: "Participate! You absolutely must participate!"

That aura, that voice, seemed to have tiny hooks, drilling into Liu Yu's heart.

He immediately changed his tune: "...And this competition opportunity is extremely rare! Teacher Xu, thank you for the organization's trust! I will definitely prepare diligently and go all out to bring glory to the school! I will never let everyone down!"

"Great! Great! Liu Yu, that's fantastic! Du Ningxuan from the Arts Department will discuss the registration and preliminary round arrangements with you next week. Prepare well; the school will fully support you!"

"Okay, Teacher Xu, I will."

"Okay, then I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."

"Beep!" came the busy signal.

Liu Yu immediately tossed his phone onto the sofa: "Su, Wan, Qing!"
