Chapter 17: Hurried
He Yu didn’t let her do much, stopping after two rounds. Feeling sticky, the two of them took a bath together….
The two were becoming more compatible with each other.

The next few idle days were relaxing but boring. There wasn’t anyone available to hang out with so she could only stick to exercising or reading books and watching dramas. She occasionally went home to visit her mother, and every time Mother He would bring up Ye Xun. She wanted to meet her daughter’s girlfriend, but He Yu would always change the topic.
Naturally, Mother He knew that He yu was avoiding the subject so she could say, “Don’t torment yourself and live a peaceful, stable life.”
He Yu knew that her mother was just worried for her, so she nodded her head: “I know.”
When she left, Mother He would pack her two person’s worth of portions of flaky meat-filled rice cakes and sticky brown sugar rice cakes.
These two person’s worth of rice cakes all ended up in Ye Xun’s stomach.
Regarding Ye Xun-s previous proposal to visit Beijing, He Yu thought about it and finally decided not to go, but, alas, things always change unexpectedly. Right before He Yu was ready to tell Ye Xun the decision, Mother He suddenly decided to travel abroad for Chinese New Year, and would only return after the fourth day, which happened to conflict with He Yu’s schedule.
When her brother told her the news, Ye Xun happened to be present, and she glanced sideways at He Yu.
In the next few days, although Ye Xun didn’t say anything, she was observing He Yu’s reaction secretly, waiting for her answer.
It seemed that Ye Xun really wanted to bring He Yu home with her.
He Yu didn’t know what to do, so he asked for advice from Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun answered without hesitation: “It’s good to see the parents in advance. The dad has already sent you gifts, which means they already accept you. Don’t stress about it too much, and you’ll have to see them sooner or later anyway.”
“Wouldn’t it be too sudden?” He Yu frowned, their relationship seemed to be moving a little too fast.
“Why do you think that little kid asked you to go?” Jiang Yun asked, if it weren’t for her parents reminding her, Ye Xun would’ve never asked. “It’s not like you’re asking them for their blessings to marry or anything. Nowadays, it’s just a meal and some chatting, not a big deal at all.”
He Yu still had her doubts, while Jiang Yun searched for a cigarette, but she didn’t smoke it. She was trying to quit, but whenever she felt the need, she would take out a stick and take a whiff. When she was annoyed or angry, she would only smoke half a stick. After a while, she felt a little anxious and went outside with a lighter.

He Yu decided to go to Beijing. Ye Xun, on the surface, was calm but had called her parents two or three times in private.
On Friday night, maybe because she thought they wouldn’t have many chances to do it after they arrive in Beijing, Ye Xun came over to He Yu’s apartment in the middle of the night. She gave an excuse, which was “to help pack the luggage,” but came over to mess around.
He Yu knew what she wanted, but didn’t let her do it until the packing was done.
“You can pack up in the morning…” Ye Xun whispered, leaving kisses behind her ears, then leaning down to kiss her neck while her hands tightened around her waist.
He Yu tilted her head, grabbed Ye Xun’s arms, and murmured something softly. Ye Xun turned her around, biting her soft lips, and kissed her fiercely as their tongues intertwined.
After “messing around” the entire night did they fall asleep.
