Help! My hunky roommate is begging me to touch his abs!

The next morning, when the sunlight peeked into the room through the gaps in the curtains, the two people in bed were still fast asleep.

Jin Bao'er nestled in Zhao Yuheng's arms, her nose brushing against his warm chest, her breath carrying a lazy warmth.

Zhao Yuheng was fast asleep, his chin resting on Jin Bao'er's head, his arms tightly wrapped around her, as if afraid that the person in his arms would run away.

It was quiet outside the bedroom door. Li Jiaxin deliberately walked slowly as she passed by, and didn't forget to glare at the study to signal Old Man Zhao to keep quiet.

They stayed like that until the sun was high in the sky.

The clock in the living room had just struck eleven when Old Zhao in the study finally couldn't sit still any longer.

He suddenly stood up, strode to the bedroom door, and knocked heavily on it.

His voice was loud and clear, filled with barely suppressed anger: "Zhao Yuheng! What time is it?! Get up!"

The door rattled loudly, instantly waking the two people on the bed.

Jin Bao'er was so frightened that she shrank into Zhao Yuheng's arms, her cheek brushing against the man's hot skin, and her ears instantly turned bright red.

Zhao Yuheng was also completely bewildered. After realizing what had happened, he slapped his forehead in annoyance and quickly nudged Jin Bao'er: "Oh no, I overslept."

The two hurriedly got dressed, washed up, and came out of the bedroom to find Li Jiaxin placing a warm breakfast on the table.

Old Zhao sat on the sofa, his face still dark, flipping through the newspaper noisily, clearly still angry.

Jin Bao'er followed behind Zhao Yuheng, her head bowed low, her ears so red they looked like they could bleed, and she even seemed a little reserved when she sat down.

Zhao Yuheng, on the other hand, was very easygoing. He pulled Zhao Yuheng's hand and sat him down on the dining chair, then scratched his head and chuckled at Old Man Zhao, "Old man, I overslept, I overslept."

Old Zhao snorted coldly and ignored him, but Li Jiaxin smiled and put a steamed bun on Jin Bao'er's plate: "Bao'er, eat quickly, I saved this especially for you, it's not hot anymore."

Jin Bao'er thanked him softly, her hand holding the chopsticks stiffening as she shoveled at the porridge in her bowl, not daring to lift her head.

Breakfast was eaten in silence, but the whole house was filled with an awkward atmosphere.

Only after Zhao Yuheng put down his chopsticks did Old Man Zhao put down his newspaper and say in a deep voice, "Come with me to the company later; I have some things to tell you."

Zhao Yuheng paused for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."

Old Zhao glanced at Jin Bao'er beside him again, his expression softening slightly, and his tone becoming more indifferent: "You stay home with your mother, she'll be bored being alone at home."

Upon hearing this, Jin Bao'er quickly looked up, met Old Man Zhao's gaze, and nodded obediently, "Okay, I understand, Dad."

The word "Dad" made Old Zhao's ears burn slightly. He coughed lightly, picked up the newspaper, and turned a page, but his movement was noticeably slow.

……

Li Jiaxin didn't have much to do at home, so she just grew flowers and raised fish.

After watering the flowers, she went to feed the fish in the fish tank, dropping fish food little by little.

Seeing this, Jin Bao'er rushed over to help.

Seeing that he seemed a bit awkward and had nothing to do, Li Jiaxin shared half of her fish food with him: "You and Yuheng are classmates, right?"

"Um."

"So how did you two get together...?" Li Jiaxin asked with some curiosity.

Jin Bao'er found it difficult to speak when her elders asked about their past.

However, since the other party was Zhao Yuheng's mother, she still briefly recounted how the two met, got to know each other, and fell in love.

"No wonder, no wonder he couldn't eat or sleep after he came back that summer. It was all because of you." Li Jiaxin looked at Jin Bao'er with a maternal smile.

That summer?

Was it that summer when he flew to his home?

Was it the summer vacation when I spent almost the entire holiday helping with farm work?

Was it the summer when someone celebrated my birthday for the first time?

As Li Jiaxin spoke, she pulled Jin Bao'er to the sofa next to her and said, "Let me tell you, this kid has never brought a girlfriend home since he was a child. We thought he didn't like dating early and that we had raised him well. Who knew he would like boys?"

Jin Bao'er listened and smiled.

"At first, I didn't intend to turn him gay. I don't know how, but he did. I feel really bad for you guys."

Jin Bao'er felt a little guilty for "turning" someone else's son gay.

"Hey, what's with all this talk about turning him gay? He might not like men, but he definitely likes you, you silly girl," Li Jiaxin said with a smile.

"Have you ever wondered why he's so nice to you, but not other guys?"

Jin Bao'er thought about it and realized that she was greedy and lustful, and her looks were average. Apart from her self-righteous kindness, she didn't seem to have anything special about her.

But Zhao Yuheng was willing to pay the price for this kindness.

"Of course it's because of you. Although I haven't known you for long, based on my son Yuheng's descriptions and my recent observations of you, you have a kind of resilience and an incredibly keen sense of observation."

"You mean I'm too sensitive, right?" Jin Bao'er smiled helplessly.

"What's wrong with being sensitive? I was sensitive back then too. Although I come from a good family, your dad had a huge business back then, and there were countless people pursuing him and throwing themselves at him."

"Sometimes I'm really afraid he'll cheat on me one day, I'm so worried." Li Jiaxin paused.

"Guess what he did after he noticed my unusual behavior?"

"What's wrong?"

"He proactively linked our phone locations together, video-called every night when we were on business trips, and even made me become close with his friends, saying that if he ever did anything wrong, his friends wouldn't completely side with him."

"So being sensitive isn't a bad thing. As long as you meet the right person, they will give you a sense of security."

She looked at Jin Bao'er and continued, "Moreover, highly sensitive people perceive love twice as much."

"Tell me, aren't you already envious of our family atmosphere? And aren't you to the point where you can't live without Yuheng?"

Li Jiaxin spoke with the air of someone who had been through it all; the family atmosphere in her home was truly exceptional.

Jin Bao'er nodded after listening. Yes, this kind of family atmosphere was what he wanted to have for the rest of his life.

"Then you should move in quickly, so you can experience this atmosphere every day," Li Jiaxin said with a smile.

Jin Bao'er blushed and lowered her head.

Li Jiaxin sighed softly: "Bao'er, I understand your situation now. Actually, our family is not good enough for you."

"Don't be fooled by how big this house is; it's practically our only house, and we still have millions in debt. Why don't you move in with us..."

The woman sighed again as she spoke, wishing the family business were still as successful as it used to be.

She was able to easily "bring" Jin Bao'er back to be her son's wife, but now...
