Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Shen caught the woman’s gaze directly fixed on him, and his throat involuntarily tightened.

Earlier, she was shy and demure, but now she stared at him like a wild cat eyeing its prey.

The woman’s swift change in demeanor surprised him. Sitting on the bed, he tensed slightly.

At this moment, Gu Zi wasn’t focused on being shy. She took the initiative to sit close beside him.

Her fair arms wrapped around the man’s neck, and her slender fingers caressed the man’s Adam’s apple wantonly. Their eyes met, and the temperature rose where their skin touched.

Gu Zi had never been in a relationship in her past life. Although she had never had a boyfriend, she had always followed some public accounts that discussed sexual health and intimate topics.

One article discussed how caressing a man’s throat could arouse his desire.

It was the most vulnerable and sensitive area for a man. If he allowed you to touch it without reservation, it meant he fully trusted you.

Of course, the premise was a gentle touch. You had to be delicate; you had to protect the man’s vulnerability.

Gu Zi was surprised by her own talent. Looking into the man’s eyes, she thought she did quite well for her first attempt.

Su Shen’s eyes slightly darkened. The woman’s seductive eyes were captivating and ambiguous. He couldn’t discern her thoughts, but he was sure they weren’t entirely pure.

This woman turned out to be quite a seductress. Su Shen began to anticipate their wedding night.

But for now, he couldn’t let this little temptress have her way. His rough fingers pinched her wrist lightly, a subtle curve forming at the corner of his lips. “Gu Zi, sit properly; otherwise, it might not be good for you.”

His voice was low, magnetic, and steady, making the woman willingly compliant and easily controlled.

Gu Zi, like a child caught in mischief, withdrew her hand, a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Was this usually composed older man threatening her? How did he know it wouldn’t be good? He had restrained himself again. Well, this man was probably not that capable.

But was she too eager? She even found a man with hidden issues exuding such sexual tension.

There’s that saying, “If you’re not good at cards, being skilled at shuffling can make a woman yearn for ecstasy, right?”

She could try guiding Su Shen toward shuffling; as long as he excelled in bed, it didn’t matter if he couldn’t perform at crucial moments.

Gu Zi resigned herself to the thought, lowered her head to pick up and hug Lele, who was turning over—her signal that it was time to get up.

Once she lifted Lele, the child opened her eyes. She had not seen Su Shen for a day. When she saw Su Shen, she called out, “Daddy!”

Su Shen replied. He felt that Gu Zi was making his daughter more and more lovable. Indeed, children grew to resemble their caretakers.

He took Lele from Gu Zi’s hands, and the three of them exited the room. He informed Mrs. Lin that they were going to the town to choose a wedding dress and traditional clothing for toasts.

At this time, Lin Cheng had already left for work, and Li Hua was also preparing to go to the fields.

She said to Gu Zi and Su Shen,”Why don’t you two come with me to bask in the sun?” Playing in the mud is more fun than staying at home.”

Li Hua suggested, “Would the two older ones like to come with me to bask in the sun? Playing in the fields is more fun than staying cooped up at home.”

Li Hua felt that the two boys were physically weak, so she wanted them to accompany her to the fields. She didn’t intend to make them work but believed that more physical activity would strengthen them.

Gu Zi said, “You two, Su Bing, Su Li, would you like to go with Auntie?”

Su Bing and Su Li had already accepted Gu Zi as their mother, and naturally, they didn’t reject the Lin family. They were willing to accompany Li Hua.

Mrs. Lin looked at the frail backs of the two boys and couldn’t help but recall the words of the village women from the previous night.

She couldn’t help but think about how much hardship they had faced in the past. The Lin family used to be so poor and tough, yet both Lin Cheng and Lin Miao grew up so robustly.

Now that Gu Zi was taking care of them, she hoped they would grow strong quickly.

Mrs Lin hugged Su Le and said,” Don’t worry. The three children are part of the Lin family now. Be good, Lele. Grandma has made some corn porridge for you to eat; we’ll go and have it now.”

Lele, upon hearing about food, happily waved to Gu Zi and Su Shen, seemingly saying, “Mom and Dad, I’m going to eat!”

A smile appeared in Gu Zi’s eyes. “It seems Lele is as much of a little foodie as su Li.”

Su Shen looked at her. A radiant maternal glow had descended upon her young and beautiful face, making her even more attractive.

He could see that she genuinely loved Lele and also Su Bing and Su Li. Her careful nurturing made him feel inadequate..
