Chapter 770 I’m Not Good Enough for You

Shen Xi was too tired to lift a finger, but she could not just lie in bed all day. She had to bring the children to their extracurricular activities.

They had to see the job to the end since they brought the kids home yesterday,

Li Yuan helped his fair lady get dressed while struggling to lock the beast within. Men tended to have needs in the morning.

Nevertheless, he felt bad enough to see the girl so lethargic. How could he possibly have the heart to go for another round?

At the door, Shen Xi nudged him. “Go and get me a scarf.”

She felt her neck. It would be embarrassing if the kids saw it.

With a doting smile and love in his eyes, Li Yuan gazed at the love bites on the girl’s fair neck. He went to pick a scarf from the wardrobe.

Shen Xi opened the door to find a human-shaped thing tumbling to her feet. At a closer inspection, she met a pair of angry and distressful eyes staring at her.

Fu Qingxuan!

Taken aback, Shen Xi stammered as she pointed at the person. “W-why are you here?”

When did he come over? Had he been eavesdropping at the door?

Biting his lip, Fu Qingxuan sat up. With bloodshot eyes, he hissed, “Meanie!”

He had a sudden discomfort in the heart in the middle of the night, thinking something had happened to her. Rushing to Li Mansion, Fu Qingxuan was struck by a thought at Li Mansion’s doorstep.

What else could happen when Shen Xi and Li Yuan were together? It could only be the most natural act between men and women.

Shen Xi’s head was spinning from the blow. No way, no way, no way. What could be more embarrassing between twins? Could Fu Qingxuan sense whatever she was doing?

Jesus. How was she supposed to do the deed with Li Yuan thereafter?

Sensing her shame and panic, Fu Qingxuan added. “We were at close range. I felt an uneasiness in my heart.”

He did not want to have a telepathic connection with what she and Li Yuan were doing. Otherwise, Fu Qingxuan might just pass away in rage.

“That’s weird, okay!” It did not sit well with Shen Xi. She was speechless. “I ought to find a way to cut the telepathy between us.”

That would not do. It would be awkward if she could perceive Fu Qingxuan engaging in the act of love when he had a lover down the road.

“I won’t be able to pick on that if you didn’t get your panties in a twist.” Turning flushed in the face, Fu Qingxuan glared at her. Could they change the subject?

Shen Xi heaved relief. Fu Qingxuan was right. She must have gotten too excited because yesterday was Li Yuan’ and her first time. Hence, Fu Qingxuan felt it.

Fu Qingxuan would not be able to feel a thing if she showed a little restraint next time.

“Uncle.”

Lu Guoguo’s sweet voice cleared the awkward air between them.

Fu Qingxuan got himself in a sticky situation. He regretted it, believing he should not have come or said anything. Nevertheless, there was no point crying over spilled milk. Fu Qingxuan bolted to Lu Guoguo and Lu Zhen’s side.

Shen Xi asked Uncle Li and found out that Fu Qingxuan spent the night at Li Mansion’s entrance.

Uncle Li stumbled upon him at the doorstep and invited him in when he got up to sweep. Fu Qingxuan was not eavesdropping bright early in the morning

Despite no one at home talking about Shen Xi and Li Yuan consummating the marriage, everyone was aware of it. It was common for lovers to be intimate during their private time.

In the next few days, Shen Xi tried to figure out if Fu Qingxuan could feel anything when she and Li Yuan did the deed. She could finally rest, seeing that he acted nothing out of the ordinary.

Fu Qingxuan was right. She was hot with emotions that night because it was her first time. He could pick up on high fluctuations of emotions.

The Shen family had an agreement with the Fu family to celebrate the New Year together.

This would be their first New Year together. After a discussion, they decided to spend the New Year at the Fu family’s residence. Shen Tang’s family was included in the celebrations too. The merrier the better. The Fu family had enough rooms to accommodate everyone.

In the afternoon of December 24th in the lunar year, the family gathered at the Li family’s private airport for their flight to the Fu family’s country of residence.

Shen Tang was going to meet up with them after taking care of business. She was the last one to arrive.

Yu Qiubai drove her to the airport.

The pair started dating last night.

Shen Tang had her eye surgery ten days ago and the bandage was removed yesterday. Although she had regained vision, the swelling around the eyes had not gone down.

Yu Qiubai had been in low spirits since getting out of the car. He carried the luggage and quietly walked ahead.

Shen Tang gazed at him amusingly. “You have to stay behind to spend the New Year with your

mom.”

Yu Qiubai begrudgingly looked at her. He was sad and pouty. “Just tell me that you don’t want me to tag along.”

Shen Tang replied, “We’re dating, not married.”

Besides, she was already a little shy about going to the Fu family’s residence. She was afraid the Fu family might think the Shen family knew no boundaries if she also brought along her boyfriend.

Shen Tang was aware that the Fu family was nice. That being the case, she should reciprocate with good manners and not inconvenience the family.

“So you’d bring me along if we’re married?” With his face beaming, Yu Qiubai asked.

Shen Tang hesitated. “Um…”

If nothing else, the guy was a world-class clinger.

“You must be talking about this.” Yu Qiubai suddenly whipped out their household registers. “City hall is still open. We have two hours before they close. It takes us one hour to get there. Let’s go now.”

It blew Shen Tang’s mind that he took out the household registers and talked about getting a marriage license out of the blue. She took a while to get over the shock. “You must be joking.”

Yu Qiubai drowned himself in a pity party. “I knew it. I’m not good enough anymore. You don’t like me now that your eyes are better.”

Shen Tang got a good laugh. “What about your mom if you come with me? Is she spending the New Year on her own?”

“My mom is going too. My mom is Li Yuan’s aunt. Come to think of it, we’re family.” Yu Qiubai came clean. “I asked Xixi for a favor. She’s picking up my mom. Just tell me if you want me.”

Shen Tang answered, “I want you.”

Yu Qiubai broke into a smile. With his foxy eyes reflecting joy and happiness, he drew near. “I got your household register from your mom. When are we getting our license?” “You’re not of age.” Shen Tang reminded him.

The legal age to marry in China was eighteen for women and twenty for men. He had two years to go! “We can have the wedding first.” Yu Qiubai would not let it go. “We can get the marriage license on my twentieth birthday.”
