Chapter 12: I Want to Look and Touch~

Yu: 【Do you like it?】

Shu Shu You Tang: 【Mm-hmm, I love it. Auntie put a lot of thought into everything.】

Yu: 【As long as you like it. If you need anything, just tell the butler.】

Lying on the soft bed, Tang Shu couldn’t help laughing when she saw the message.

People from wealthy families really did seem to love saying things like:

“If you need anything, ask the butler.”

Or:

“Tell the assistant.”

A moment later, another message arrived.

Yu: 【Also… eat more.】

Tang Shu stared at it.

This wasn’t the first time Shi Zhiyu had said that.

Hadn’t she told him she was a two-hundred-pound fat girl?

Did he genuinely not care about looks or body shape?

Or had Aunt Qiao sent him photos?

Had he already seen what she looked like and realized she definitely wasn’t two hundred pounds?

Was that why he kept telling her to eat more?

Did that mean he’d already seen her face?

She immediately sat up and started typing.

Shu Shu You Tang: 【Big brother, do you know what I look like?】

Yu: 【No.】

Tang Shu patted her chest in relief.

Good.

He didn’t know.

So he probably just wanted her to take better care of herself.

Yu: 【Are you going to send me a photo?】

Shu Shu You Tang: 【Nope.】

【I’ll wait until you come back and see whether you can recognize me in a crowd at first glance.】

Yu: 【Okay.】

Tang Shu scratched her head.

The Crown Prince was surprisingly easy to talk to.

He accepted such a terrible excuse without question.

Then another message appeared.

Yu: 【I’ll find you instantly in any crowd.】

Tang Shu became even more suspicious.

Were all rich heirs this confident?

Or was he planning to investigate her after she broke up with him?

Well, if he investigated her, then of course he’d recognize her immediately.

After all, she’d be the girl who dumped him.

His enemy.

She’d heard rumors that Shi Zhiyu’s methods were ruthless.

Finding someone was supposedly as easy for him as crushing an ant.

No.

For the sake of her own life, she needed some reassurance while he was still in the honeymoon phase.

Shu Shu You Tang: 【Big brother, if I ever did something that hurt you in the future, would you blame me?】

Yu: 【Are you planning to cheat on me?】

Tang Shu nearly choked on her own saliva.

Another message followed immediately.

Yu: 【You won’t have the chance.】

【After you meet me, you won’t like anyone else.】

【And even if you did like someone else, I’d take you back.】

【You can only be mine.】

One message after another popped up.

Tang Shu clicked her tongue.

What a domineering CEO-style declaration.

As expected of the Crown Prince.

Even his possessiveness sounded powerful.

Shu Shu You Tang: 【No, no! I’m not that kind of person.】

【I’m very loyal. I only like big brother~】

【I meant something else. Like… a tiny little deception…】

Shi Zhiyu immediately thought of her claim about weighing two hundred pounds.

Yu: 【Small deceptions can be forgiven.】

The moment Tang Shu read that, the tension in her chest vanished.

Good.

He could forgive it.

Shu Shu You Tang: 【Then big brother has to keep his word. Pinky promise~】

Yu: 【Okay. Pinky promise.】

Tang Shu smiled.

Then checked the time.

6:00 PM.

Wait.

Shouldn’t he be asleep right now?

How was he still replying?

Shu Shu You Tang: 【Did I wake you up?】

【I just realized it’s six o’clock.】

Yu: 【No. I like waking up early.】

Shu Shu You Tang: 【Wow~ Big brother is so disciplined. Do you get up early for morning runs?】

On the other side of the world, Shi Zhiyu froze beneath his blanket.

She likes athletic guys?

Without blushing in the slightest, he typed:

Yu: 【Mm. Starting today, I do.】

Shu Shu You Tang: 【Big brother is amazing~】

【Your body must be incredible.】

【I want to see it and touch it~】

A mischievous cat sticker with a lecherous grin followed the message.

Tang Shu rolled around on the bed.

Oh my god.

She was too good at this.

He’d definitely been flustered again.

Absolutely.

While she was busy congratulating herself, a knock sounded at the door.

“Miss Tang, the barbecue grill is ready.”

“Madam asked me to invite you downstairs.”

Tang Shu immediately climbed out of bed, slipped into her pink slippers, and headed downstairs.

In the garden pavilion, charcoal crackled inside the grill.

The aroma of roasting meat drifted through the evening air.

Several servants were already preparing ingredients.

The moment Qiao Yaxin spotted her, she hurried over.

Taking Tang Shu’s hand, she said enthusiastically,

“Shu Shu, come quickly.”

“I haven’t had a barbecue at home in years.”

“It’s usually just the two of us old folks.”

“Thanks to you, we finally get to enjoy one again.”

Tang Shu smiled.

“It’s my honor.”

“If not for Auntie, I wouldn’t get to eat barbecue this delicious.”

Qiao Yaxin handed her a freshly grilled beef skewer.

“Such a sweet talker.”

“Try it and see if it suits your taste.”

Tang Shu took a bite.

The meat was juicy, tender, and perfectly seasoned.

Her eyes curved into crescents.

“It’s delicious.”

“Really delicious.”

Watching her eat so happily made Qiao Yaxin even more delighted.

She kept passing skewers to Tang Shu while chatting about everyday life.

The two sat close together, talking comfortably like family.

Meanwhile, Shi Hengjun had become little more than background scenery.

After dismissing the servants, he personally took over grilling duties.

When Tang Shu tried to help, Qiao Yaxin immediately stopped her.

“Shu Shu, our job is to eat.”

“Let your uncle grill.”

“He enjoys it.”

Shi Hengjun looked at his wife with grievance written all over his face.

Qiao Yaxin shot him a glare.

At that moment, he only wanted his son to hurry home.

Because his wife had spent the entire day accompanying Tang Shu instead of him.

Feeling wronged, he pulled out his phone and opened the family group chat.

Xinxin’s Jun: 【@Yu Can you talk to your school and come back early?】

Yu: 【Why? Did something happen at home?】

Xinxin’s Jun: 【Your wife stole my wife away.】

Yu: 【It’s only two days. Endure it.】

Xinxin’s Jun: 【Who said two days?】

【She’ll definitely come often in the future.】

【Otherwise if your wife runs away, you’ll probably tear the entire Shi family apart.】

Yu: 【Dad, take good care of Shu Shu.】

Xinxin’s Jun: 【Do you even need to say that?】

【Your mother already treats her like a goddaughter.】

Yu: 【She’s a daughter-in-law.】

Xinxin’s Jun: 【Then hurry up and finish your studies.】

【Your mother and I want to go traveling.】

Yu: 【After I return to China, I won’t join the family corporation immediately.】

Xinxin’s Jun: 【?】

Yu: 【Because I need to chase my wife too.】

【You’re already legally married.】

【I don’t even have a girlfriend physically beside me yet.】

【So, Dad, please understand.】

Xinxin’s Jun: 【…】

A new participant suddenly joined the conversation.

Flowers of Spring: 【Jun? Did you just say Xiao Yu has a wife?】

Xinxin’s Jun: 【Mom, no. Not yet.】

Yu: 【Grandma, she is my wife.】

Flowers of Spring: 【Where is my granddaughter-in-law?】

Yu: 【At the family villa.】

Flowers of Spring: 【You little brat!】

【My granddaughter-in-law came to visit and nobody told me?】

【Now I didn’t get to see her today!】

Xinxin’s Jun: 【We invited you.】

【You refused because you thought we were trying to steal Yuanyuan from you.】

Flowers of Spring: 【Hmph.】

【Will my granddaughter-in-law still be there tomorrow?】

Xinxin’s Jun: 【Yes.】

【She’s staying overnight.】

Flowers of Spring: 【Just wait until tomorrow.】

【I’ll beat you to death for being such an unfilial grandson.】

Yu: 【Grandma, don’t scare the little girl away.】

Flowers of Spring: 【Don’t worry, my precious grandson.】

【I’ll help you keep a close eye on your wife.】

Yu: 【Grandma is the best.】

After that, Shi Zhiyu exited the family group chat.

His gaze returned to Tang Shu’s conversation.

A little earlier, he had sent her a photo.

But she still hadn’t replied.

Most likely…

She was still chatting happily with his mother.
