Chapter 130 Marriage?
marry?
These two words rang like an alarm bell in Lin Shuyao's ears.
In the original book, the day the female supporting character gets married to the male lead is the moment the female lead returns.
Then the female supporting character was exposed, imprisoned, and within a month received a bullet that pierced her forehead.
The person is gone.
Now that Cheng Zheng says he wants to marry her, doesn't that mean...?
A chill ran down Lin Shuyao's back.
Seeing that she remained silent and seemed lost in thought, Cheng Zheng looked down at her and asked, "What's wrong, baby? Don't you want to marry me?"
"Huh? No, no..." Lin Shuyao came to her senses and quickly organized a reason for refusing. "I just think it's too fast. We've only been dating for a short time, and I want to enjoy more time alone with my baby."
"We can enjoy life even after we're married," Cheng Zheng kissed her forehead, speaking softly about his plans. "Let's not have children yet. I'll apply for another apartment, and we'll move out..."
"But... my dad is your uncle. Your family won't approve of our marriage, will they?"
"My mom no longer objects to us dating," Cheng Zheng said confidently.
"What about Uncle Cheng? He probably doesn't know about our relationship yet. And my dad... if he knew I was dating you, he definitely wouldn't approve."
"You don't need to worry about these things, I'll take care of them."
"How are you going to solve this, baby? I don't want to put you in a difficult position..."
"It's not difficult," Cheng Zheng paused, looking at her calmly, "but if we get married, you might never be able to acknowledge your uncle. Are you... willing?"
Lin Shuyao secretly wished she could stay away from the female lead's biological father, but if she said she was willing, wouldn't she be getting married to Cheng Zheng very soon?
Her face scrunched up slightly, revealing a troubled expression: "Can you let me think about it? I'm not ready yet."
Seeing her like this, Cheng Zheng couldn't bear to force her, and replied softly, "Okay."
He pulled her closer to him, resting his chin on the top of her head. "But baby, you need to think this through quickly..."
Lin Shuyao was held tightly by him when she suddenly felt an unusual sensation.
She glanced down discreetly and instantly understood why he was in such a hurry.
She feigned anger and snorted, glaring at him with her watery almond-shaped eyes, then clearly glancing downwards: "Hmph, Cheng Zheng, so you wanted to marry me sooner just for this? It's all just to satisfy your own desires, not because you truly love me!"
Her outburst was so forceful and measured that it startled Cheng Zheng. His expression darkened, and he gripped her shoulders, looking at her as she nervously explained, "No!"
"It's because I love you and want to start a family with you, not what you think. I'm not that kind of jerk, with only those kinds of thoughts on my mind..."
"Oh?" Lin Shuyao curled her lips with interest. "So you mean even if we get married, we can still not do 'that'? Just kiss and hug like this?"
"..." Cheng Zheng realized he had set a trap for himself. After a few seconds of silence, he finally said, "If you don't want to, I won't force you."
"You said it yourself."
"Um."
"Can you hold it in?" Lin Shuyao deliberately flirtatiously tossed her hair, then naturally unbuttoned two buttons on her collar, revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin.
Cheng Zheng was blinded by a flash of white. He remembered how he had just buried himself in that white expanse, wolfing down his food with ravenous hunger. His Adam's apple bobbed heavily, and he managed a muffled "Mmm."
Even if you can't hold it in, you have to.
Lin Shuyao saw the prominent veins on his forehead and knew perfectly well that he couldn't possibly hold back. Her chest was still aching slightly, and she wondered who it was that had such a bloodshot look in his eyes, as if he wanted to devour her.
A slight smile played on her lips as she reached out her small hand, feigning innocence, and said, "Your pants aren't straight, let me straighten them for you."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand.
"Um--"
Cheng Zheng's body tensed suddenly, his eyes darkened instantly, and he pressed down on her mischievous little hand, his Adam's apple bobbing violently, "Don't move the baby."
Lin Shuyao winked at him, then tiptoed closer to his ear, her warm breath brushing against his earlobe: "Actually, we can be together even if we're not married..."
boom--
Upon hearing what she said, Cheng Zheng felt all the blood rush to his head.
The veins on his forehead bulged.
"Baby, do you know what you're saying?"
His voice was incredibly hoarse, and he was having difficulty breathing.
"I know," Lin Shuyao took a half step back, tilted her head slightly, her small face both innocent and charming, her eyes slightly upturned, unknowingly alluring, "Don't you want to? Brother Chengzheng~"
Of course he wanted to.
I've thought about it all...
Cheng Zheng closed his eyes briefly, trying his best to control himself. When he opened them again, his gaze was calm.
"You're a lesbian, and before we're married, I won't... In short, I have to take responsibility for you."
Lin Shuyao nodded, about to praise his patience, but before she could speak, he continued, "But before that, I need to collect some interest..."
The next second, Lin Shuyao was pushed onto the bed by him.
"Well……"
His tall figure loomed over her, enveloping her.
His thin lips sealed hers, and his large hand slipped inside her clothes.
"……Um……"
"..."
Intermittent, indistinct monosyllables echoed in the air.
Demanding interest can take up an entire afternoon.
There was naturally no time for lunch.
Cheng Zheng was worried that she would be hungry, so he packed a lot of snacks for her to take to the office and eat whenever she got hungry.
……
In the afternoon, when Lin Shuyao started working, she felt Cheng Hao watching her from across the room again.
His gaze lingered on her lips and neck, but as soon as she looked up, he immediately looked away.
Lin Shuyao pursed her lips impatiently and ignored him.
After working until the end of the day, she quickly got up to pack her things and prepare to leave. At this moment, Cheng Hao approached her with a smile on his face: "Comrade Shen, are you free tonight? There's a nice Western restaurant on West Street, I'll take you to try it."
Lin Shuyao slung her bag over her shoulder and walked out without stopping: "Comrade Cheng, I appreciate your kindness, but there's no need for a meal. I have something to do, so I'll be going now."
"Hey, Comrade Shen, don't be so polite," Cheng Hao said, blocking the doorway and bringing his face closer to hers. He glanced around to make sure no one was watching, then lowered his voice and said, "You're my uncle's daughter, we're relatives. Can't your brother even treat you to a meal?"
Lin Shuyao looked up at him and said, "You've misunderstood. Uncle Cheng isn't my dad. Don't talk nonsense like that in the future."
"Stop pretending," Cheng Hao raised an eyebrow, looking like he knew everything. "I know about your mother and my uncle's affair. Just based on that, there's absolutely no way you and Cheng Zheng could be together. Your aunt would never let you into the family. But it's different between you and me. My dad and your dad aren't related by blood, and we're not really siblings."
He emphasized the words "brother and sister," making the implication clear.
Lin Shuyao gave him a meaningful look: "I told you Uncle Cheng isn't my dad, and Cheng Zheng isn't my brother either, believe it or not. Have you finished translating the document I gave you today? It's due tomorrow afternoon. Just a reminder, the technical department is directly managed by the representative, and they have very high standards for the translations."
Cheng Hao recalled that he had translated less than a third of the materials, and a hint of hesitation flashed across his face, but he quickly dismissed it: "Don't worry, Cheng Zheng is my cousin."
At worst, I'll just say a few words; I can't really do anything to him.
Taking advantage of his momentary daze, Lin Shuyao pushed his shoulder away and walked out.
"Hey! Comrade Shen!" Cheng Hao chased after her again, but this time Lin Shuyao didn't give him a chance. She nimbly slipped into the crowd of people leaving get off work and successfully avoided Cheng Hao's pursuit.
After going downstairs, Lin Shuyao kept walking, and fortunately, Cheng Hao did not catch up with her until she reached the factory gate.
Lin Shuyao breathed a sigh of relief and then slowed down.
There's a meeting at the factory today, so Cheng Zheng can't take her. She has to go to her part-time job at the Western restaurant by herself.
Walking to the restaurant, Lin Shuyao changed into her work clothes and began greeting guests.
jingle.
The wind chimes at the door rang as the door was pushed open. Lin Shuyao looked up and saw the person who came in, and her smile froze.
"Comrade Shen, so you didn't agree to have dinner with me because you were going to work as a waiter here. You should have said so earlier. I would have given you a ride on my bike since it was on my way, so you wouldn't have had to walk so hard."
Cheng Hao walked towards Lin Shuyao. Lin Shuyao was wearing a slightly tight-fitting suit dress, which accentuated her curvaceous figure. Combined with her face, she was particularly eye-catching.
A look of amazement flashed in Cheng Hao's eyes as his gaze roamed over her body without restraint. He then pulled out a chair from an empty table, sat down casually, crossed his legs, and gestured with his chin toward her. "Could you get me a glass of water?"
He was a customer, so Lin Shuyao couldn't give him a hard time. She could only go over and pour him a glass of water.
Cheng Hao drank water while staring at her chest.
It's bulging and full of substance.
Cheng Hao felt a surge of heat in his lower abdomen. He put down his water glass, looked at her, and said, "Can you tell me what good food you have here?"
Lin Shuyao rolled her eyes inwardly, but pretended to be understanding and said, "Comrade Cheng, this restaurant is not cheap. Our monthly salary is only enough for a few meals. Why don't you go to a state-run restaurant instead?"
This was a clever way of putting it; on the surface, it seemed to be looking out for Cheng Hao, but in reality, it was hitting right into the man's pride.
Sure enough, Cheng Hao raised an eyebrow: "Do you think I'm short of money? I used to frequent this restaurant before I went abroad, I know it very well. Give me the menu."
Lin Shuyao handed him the menu she was holding.
Cheng Hao took it and poked at it repeatedly with his fingers: "This one, this one, this one... give me one of each."
"Are you sure? These dishes together cost more than 50 yuan!" Lin Shuyao feigned surprise.
Cheng Hao was indeed provoked: "What, you look down on me? You think I can't afford these dishes? It's only 50 yuan, it's not like I can't afford it."
Cheng Hao took out his wallet and showed Lin Shuyao his wealth.
Lin Shuyao estimated that it should be around a hundred yuan.
She immediately adopted an admiring expression, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Cheng Hao. "Actually, our red wine here is quite good too. Why don't you order a bottle to try?"
After saying that, he deliberately covered his mouth and said, "Oh no, let's forget it. The wine is much more expensive than the food. It's not something that ordinary people can afford. Usually, the people who come here to order wine are either foreign experts or government officials. Last time, Comrade Cheng Zheng treated us to a meal and ordered a bottle."
"Red wine isn't anything rare, why can't we afford it? Give me a bottle!" Cheng Hao waved his hand and immediately expressed his opinion.
"Wow, Comrade Cheng, you're so talented!" Lin Shuyao immediately praised him highly.
Which man can resist the adoration of a beautiful woman?
Cheng Hao is getting too cocky!
He squinted and curled his lips, looking incredibly smug and self-satisfied, as if he had gained both face and substance.
"I'll go to the wine cellar and get you some wine right now." Lin Shuyao seized the opportunity and turned to walk towards the kitchen. In the instant she turned, a sly glint flashed in her eyes.
Soon, the 28-year-old red wine was placed on the table.
"Comrade Cheng, are you sure you want to drive it? Once it's driven, you can't back out."
Lin Shuyao deliberately raised her voice to ensure that the guests and waiters at the next table could hear her.
Seeing everyone turn to look at him, Cheng Hao felt that smug feeling rise again, and said to Lin Shuyao, "Let's open it."
okay.
Lin Shuyao decisively inserted the cork opener into the cork, and soon, the rich aroma of red wine filled the air.
Appetizers and main courses were served one after another.
Cheng Hao swirled his wine glass while looking at Lin Shuyao.
"Comrade Shen, listen to me. You broke up with my cousin. There's no future for you two. Be with me. My dad is a section chief, my mom is a head nurse, and I'm the only son in my family. The whole family revolves around me. Wouldn't it be great if you married into our family and enjoyed a good life with me?"
Cheng Hao downed the red wine in one gulp.
He let out a burp.
"Pour the wine," Cheng Hao ordered Lin Shuyao.
Lin Shuyao filled his cup again.
Cheng Hao, having drunk half his drink, continued, "The moment I saw you, I felt we were destined for each other. What's that called again? Love at first sight! Seriously, my heart was pounding, just like in the Soviet film 'Happy Life,' where I was shot by some kind of arrow..."
"If you're with me, we can have a few drinks, watch a movie, and I'll take you shopping to buy you things you like. That's what it means to pamper someone, you know? Unlike my cousin, who's used to being rough around the edges in the army and doesn't know how to care for anyone. All he ever thinks about is work. You'll regret it if you stay with him for too long!"
As Cheng Hao spoke, his emotions ran high, and he suddenly grabbed Lin Shuyao's hand. Lin Shuyao immediately pulled back, saying, "What are you doing! Let go!"
"Good little sister, your brother loves you. What's wrong with holding your little hand..." After a few glasses of red wine, Cheng Hao was so drunk that he lost his bearings. His eyes were glazed over, and his tongue was slurred, with all sorts of things tumbling out.
Instead of letting go, he gripped her even tighter, pulling Lin Shuyao forcefully into his arms.
"Cheng Hao! Please have some self-respect! Otherwise I'll call for help!" Lin Shuyao said in a low voice, both anxious and angry, pressing her other hand firmly against his shoulder and leaning her body back desperately.
If she weren't afraid of her identity being exposed, she would have already shouted that he was being a pervert, instead of being stuck here pushing and shoving him.
A nearby waiter noticed something was wrong and put down his tray to help. Just then, the restaurant door was suddenly pushed open—
