Su Li quickly got back on his feet and resumed riding, taking only a moment to recover. He was so fast that Su Bing, who was leading the way, didn’t notice what had happened when he glanced back.

A strange sound reached Su Bing’s ears, causing him to instinctively look behind. What he saw was nothing more than a blur left in the wake of his brother, Su Li.

“Brother, I’ll make sure to beat you home this time!” Su Li’s voice faded away with the wind as he pulled ahead.

Su Bing remained silent, pedaling his bicycle at a leisurely pace behind Su Li. He knew his brother’s temperament well, understanding that competing with him for the lead would only make the journey riskier.

At the Su family’s residence, Su Shen’s car came to a stop in front of the house. The tall figure of a 1.9 -meter man emerged from the vehicle, his long legs drawing attention. He pressed his thin lips tightly, his healthy bronze complexion accentuated by a high nose bridge and deep-set eyes. Dressed in a white shirt buttoned up to the top, he exuded an air of cold and ascetic detachment. His commanding presence discouraged anyone from approaching him.

Gu Zi heard the car’s arrival and stepped outside to see Su Shen’s return. She recalled his earlier words when he left for the pig farm, stating that he would return after a brief visit in the afternoon and a meeting in town. Consequently, she had been keeping an eye on the afternoon’s activities.

She carried Lele and walked toward him, her gaze filled with infatuation. She found him exceptionally striking, as if any garment he wore would instantly become fashionable.

Normally, he was the rugged, powerful man in an army green vest, but now, he exuded an air of calm nobility in his white shirt.

Gu Zi couldn’t help but praise her good judgment. Men ought to be good-looking, irrespective of their status. Being easy on the eyes was always a plus, and she took delight in seeing a handsome man like Su Shen every day.

Furthermore, he was incredibly considerate. As he approached, he naturally took Su Le from Gu Zi’s arms, effortlessly carrying her while supporting Gu Zi with his other arm.

“Didn’t you park your car in town?” Gu Zi inquired, leaning on his shoulder.

Su Shen shielded her as they entered the house. “The day after tomorrow is the day you return home. Let’s drive back.”

They had brought along numerous gifts upon their return home, including the tonics and fruits they purchased in the morning. Additionally, Su Shen planned to present 50 catties of pork, two pigeons, and a sheep to the Lin family. Transporting them would be challenging without a vehicle.

“How much pork do you intend to deliver this time?” Gu Zi asked as she sat on the sofa. She was unaware of the pigeons and sheep; she only considered the quantity of pork the large pig farmer might take to her father’s house.

Seated beside her, Su Shen replied candidly, “It’s not much, just 50 catties. I’ll have Brother Lin bring it over after I finish eating.”

Although Lin Cheng was younger than Su Shen, it was customary for him to address Gu Zi as ‘brother.’ Su Shen found this arrangement quite pleasing.

Upon hearing Su Shen address Lin Cheng as ‘brother,’ Gu Zi smiled and quipped, “If you call him ‘brother’ on the pig farm, you might intimidate him.”

Su Shen briefly contemplated and teasingly responded, “I might give it a try next time.”

Gu Zi believed her husband to be an honest man. Teasing him felt like bullying him, inducing a sense of guilt. She chuckled and remarked, “Don’t tease him. You know my brother is a straightforward guy.”

Lin Cheng and Su Shen had one thing in common, and that was that they rarely spoke in front of people other than their wives.

However, Lin Cheng’s communication style made him appear forthright and dutiful, whereas Su Shen did not project an image of honesty. As he stared at Gu Zi, his gaze became somewhat inscrutable. Gu Zi had been about to rise from the sofa for something, which also served to evade his strange stare. However, in the next moment, he grasped her, initiating a kiss.

Simultaneously, Su Shen shielded Su Le’s eyes with his other hand. His tongue gently parted Gu Zi’s lips, engaging in a few enticing maneuvers. His kissing prowess had evidently improved rapidly, nearly causing Gu Zi to moan.

“Honey, I’m honest and straightforward too,” he asserted, his expression remaining unchanged after breaking the kiss.

With her heartbeat returning to its normal rhythm, Gu Zi observed Su Shen covering their daughter’s eyes. She clenched her fist and playfully punched his chest. “In the future, don’t do that in front of our child.”

Honest? After all, Su Shen didn’t consider himself honest. There were times when he felt unscrupulous, such as during their recent kiss, or when they had played in the reeds. Such moments were undeniably thrilling..
