A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

Okay, okay, my dear daughter!

Li Xixue pursed her lips tightly.

As her biological daughter, her status has plummeted.

Song Qiulan ignored her and instead spoke kindly to Lu Yang:

"Are you tired from work lately? Are you eating well?"

Lu Yang scratched his head and subconsciously said, "Actually, I'm not tired. I ate quite well."

"That's good."

Song Qiulan nodded, her gaze sweeping across the living room again.

"Your house is very clean. Did Xiaoyang clean it?"

Li Xixue's lips moved slightly, then closed again.

Strictly speaking, Lu Yang did tidy up most of the living room.

She's usually too busy with work to think about these things.

"That's good, that's good. It's an advantage for a boy to be able to tidy up the house."

Song Qiulan became more and more satisfied with what she saw.

Li Guoqing didn't say much.

He held his teacup, his gaze sweeping back and forth between the two men.

After a while, his gaze softened, and he finally spoke: "You're all busy with work, so living together and taking care of each other is good."

When Li Guoqing said this, Li Xixue's eyes flickered. She realized that her father had given his initial approval to their relationship.

Song Qiulan followed with a smile:

"Yes, we should look out for each other. And Xiaoyang, don't just focus on work. Take care of Xiaoxue more often. She's stubborn and keeps some things to herself. You have to ask her directly."

"Okay, Auntie." Lu Yang nodded.

Song Qiulan added, "Also, she has a sensitive stomach, so remember to remind her to eat on time and not to forget to eat because she's always working overtime."

"Um."

"Oh, right, her..."

Song Qiulan wanted to continue.

Li Xixue finally couldn't hold back any longer: "Mom, can you please stop talking?"

"I'm talking about my son-in-law, is he bothering you?" Song Qiulan retorted.

"..."

Li Xixue was speechless.

Moreover, legally, he is indeed the son-in-law.

Lu Yang lowered his head and ate his apple, not daring to make a sound.

Li Guoqing took a sip of tea and said, "Alright, stop talking about this. Xiao Yang, there's something I need to tell you."

"Uncle, please speak."

"Your aunt and I are going abroad in a few days, and we might stay for a while," Li Guoqing said calmly.

Lu Yang was taken aback: "Go abroad?"

"Yes, you know Xiaoxue's younger brother, right?"

"younger brother?"

Lu Yang turned to look at Li Xixue, his face full of confusion.

Why didn't she mention it to me?

"That child is graduating soon, and we need to go to the graduation ceremony and pick him up while we're at it," Song Qiulan added. "He's been abroad for so many years, it's time for him to come back."

Lu Yang nodded.

Song Qiulan continued, "So, we might have to stay here for the night."

"Stay for one night?"

Lu Yang was stunned.

"Yeah, what's wrong? Is it inconvenient?"

Song Qiulan looked at him.

Lu Yang didn't dare to speak, but instead looked at Li Xixue.

Li Xixue's fingers curled up slightly.

Before she could speak.

Song Qiulan took over the conversation directly.

After all, the daughter's opinion is not important.

"I've seen all the rooms. The master bedroom is quite big, so you and Xiaoxue can sleep there," Song Qiulan said with a smile. "Your uncle and I will sleep in the second bedroom."

"mom!"

"What's wrong?"

Song Qiulan patted her hand: "Don't worry, the bed in the second bedroom is big enough. Your dad and I can sleep comfortably without disturbing you two."

A blush rose on Li Xixue's cheeks.

Lu Yang ate his apple silently beside him, without saying a word.

That's settled.

After all, no one can protest what the mother-in-law has decided.

Song Qiulan tidied up the second bedroom, making sure the bedding and pillows were neatly arranged.

Li Guoqing was not involved much throughout the process.

He sat in the living room for a while with his teacup in hand, waiting for Song Qiulan to finish before standing up.

"Alright, it's getting late, everyone should get some rest."

Song Qiulan nodded in agreement: "Yes, we all have to go to work tomorrow, so don't stay up too late."

After saying that, she looked at Lu Yang and Li Xixue, her eyes filled with barely suppressed satisfaction.

"Xiaoyang, Xiaoxue is afraid of the cold at night and she exposes her belly when she sleeps, so don't set the air conditioner too low."

"mom!"

"Also, she has a habit of kicking off the covers at night, so remember to cover her up."

Li Xixue's face was already red all the way to the roots of her neck.

Song Qiulan completely ignored her daughter's protest, patted Lu Yang's arm, and said with a smile, "Go on, go on, go to sleep early."

Her eyes seemed to yearn for a grandson as soon as possible.

Lu Yang could only nod.

The two elders went into the second bedroom and closed the door.

Only Lu Yang and Li Xixue remained in the living room.

The two stood still, neither making the first move.

"Let's take a shower first."

Li Xixue spoke, her tone no different from usual, except that she walked faster towards the bedroom.

Lu Yang didn't stand on ceremony and went straight into the bathroom.

He only realized it when he was taking a shower.

It wasn't the first time he'd shared a bed with her.

Yes, we're an old married couple.

Of course, this is on the premise that she doesn't drink alcohol.

After Lu Yang finished showering, he quickly dried his hair and changed into a short-sleeved shirt and athletic shorts.

Pushing open the bedroom door, Li Xixue was already sitting on the edge of the bed.

She changed into a set of loungewear, a light gray cotton suit, loose and comfortable, and her hair was not tied up, but draped over her shoulders.

Lu Yang naturally lifted the covers and lay down inside.

There is no dividing line.

There was no "you sleep on your side, I'll sleep on my side" statement.

Lying down on the bed, Lu Yang turned his head and glanced at her.

Li Xixue faced the ceiling, her hands resting on the blanket.

"What are you looking at?"

"I didn't see anything."

"Then why are you staring at me?"

"I'm thinking about a question."

"What?"

"When did you become so easy to talk to?"

Li Xixue turned her head and glanced at him.

indeed.

Normally, he would have kicked Lu Yang off the bed long ago.

But now, even sharing a bed with Lu Yang, she doesn't resist at all.

Li Xixue's lips twitched, then she turned her head back and stared at the ceiling.

"I'm used to it."

The three words fell.

After she finished speaking, she didn't say anything more.

But Lu Yang noticed that the tips of her ears were slightly red.

The room was quiet for a while.

Li Xixue suddenly called out "Hello".

"Feed".

"Um?"

"You did that last time...?"

Li Xixue asked in a very soft voice.

"What is it?"

"That's the one..."

"?"

Lu Yang yawned, completely bewildered.

"clothing."

"What clothes?"

Li Xixue frowned.

Is this guy genuinely unaware or just pretending?

"oh."

Lu Yang suddenly remembered something and quickly added, "But I kept my eyes closed the whole time and didn't see anything."

Li Xixue kicked him.

He really did change my clothes!

"You, you really didn't see anything?"

Li Xixue asked again, but her cheeks were already flushed.

Lu Yang recalled carefully, then thought for a moment and said, "I only saw a little bit of... white."
