Chapter 105: Before Chinese New Year


"Auntie~ Auntie~"


Chen Cheng rang the doorbell while calling out toward the house.


The door opened almost immediately. It was An Yuan’s father, who was home for the holiday break. He grinned warmly and welcomed her inside.


"Hello, Uncle~"


"Hey there! You’re here to hang out with An Yuan?"


Uncle was a big guy, probably around 1.8 meters tall, with a beer belly, a bald head, and a burly frame. But despite his tough appearance, he had a voice that sounded like he was coaxing a child.


He smiled at her kindly, the kind of smile that made it seem like he was looking at his future daughter-in-law. He wasn’t home very often, so he wasn’t too familiar with Chen Cheng. He took a moment to size her up, his smile growing even more welcoming.


In his memory, Chen Cheng was still just a little girl. But now, she had grown up into a beautiful young woman with a great figure. He also knew her family background well, no wonder An Yuan liked her.


Because she wasn’t very familiar with him, Chen Cheng was extra polite and a little reserved. "Yeah! Where’s An Yuan?"


"He’s still sleeping. I’ll go wake him up."


"I’ll do it!"


"Have you had breakfast? I can make you something."


"No need! I’ll just go eat with An Yuan downstairs."


Before he could say anything else, Chen Cheng dashed straight to An Yuan’s room. The door wasn’t locked, so she barged right in.


She glanced at the bed, An Yuan was still asleep, buried under his blankets. The room was dark, with the curtains drawn shut.


Instead of waking him up right away, she stretched lazily and sat down in a chair, lost in thought.


She had a serious problem to consider…


She recalled what An Yuan looked like at twenty-seven. Overweight, beer belly, thinning hair. He looked exactly like his dad! Every single detail matched!


Was this… a genetic issue? A tendency to gain weight easily? Severe hair loss?


Oh no! What if An Yuan’s good looks only lasted a few years?!


Chen Cheng was a huge fan of good-looking people. She absolutely couldn’t accept a bald, chubby boyfriend! Even if he was a handsome chubby guy!


"I have to make sure he exercises and loses weight. As for hair loss… maybe it’s just psychological issues, so there’s still hope," she mumbled to herself. "He also can’t be too stressed. Bad eating habits and poor sleep will mess up his looks too."


Even though she herself can't do it, that doesn't stop her from demanding An Yuan do it!


"How about we work out together?"


A sudden voice startled her. She looked up to see An Yuan already awake, hiding under his blanket while playing on his phone.


"It'll make me muscular, and I'm not concerned about getting fat anyway."


"Oh? Then explain that little belly of yours~"


"This is normal, okay?"


"Yeah, yeah. I actually like it, it’s nice to touch."


Chen Cheng climbed onto the bed and looked down at An Yuan, who was still lying there comfortably. She had a strong urge to just crawl under the blanket with him.


But his dad was in the living room, and his mom was probably still asleep. If someone suddenly walked in, it would be hard to explain. Even if she locked the door, his parents would definitely overthink things.


"Aren’t you getting up? Let’s go out for a bit."


"Why do you suddenly want to go out? You’ve only left the house three times this entire winter break."


"My dad’s home, and I don’t really know your dad that well… How about we go to an internet café?"


To be honest, what kind of couple goes on a date to play games at an internet café?


An Yuan yawned and curled up under the blanket. "Too lazy~"


"Come on, get up! You’re even lazier than me!"


"Pull me up." He stretched an arm out from under the blanket.


"How old are you? Stop acting like a kid."


Rolling her eyes, Chen Cheng climbed onto the bed, straddled him, grabbed his wrist, and pulled hard, trying to pull him up. "Up!"


But An Yuan barely moved, he only tilted slightly before suddenly pulling back hard.


Caught off guard, Chen Cheng lost her balance and fell straight onto him.


"You idiot!" she grumbled before shamelessly sitting on top of him. "Get up, or I’ll sit on you until you die!"


An Yuan let out a dramatic groan. "Get off me, you demon!"


"An Yuan! Watch your damn mouth!"


A loud voice boomed from outside the room, it was his dad.


An Yuan froze for a moment. As expected, even his father was already siding with Chen Cheng too, and he… well, he was clearly at the bottom of the family hierarchy now.


Maybe he should just get a dog in the future…


"You getting up or not?"


Chen Cheng suddenly bounced on top of him again, making his back in pain.


"Alright, alright! Get off me first! Seriously, do you even know how much you weigh?"


"At most, like a hundred pounds, okay?"


She grinned mischievously and climbed off him. But instead of leaving, she sat on the bed and shoved her ice-cold feet under his blanket. Then, as if nothing happened, she curiously asked, "Where are we spending New Year’s Eve?"


"Not sure. My family doesn’t really care, but it depends on your dad."


"My dad? Oh… yeah, he definitely wouldn’t want to spend it with your family. He’s already sick of seeing you. He doesn’t even argue with my mom anymore because of you."


"Isn’t that a good thing?"


Chen Cheng tucked her freezing feet into his pajama shirt, pressing them against his warm skin. It felt incredibly comfortable.


But An Yuan flinched at the cold. "Move your feet away! What if you have a foot infection?"


"Then I’ll pass it on to you."


Chen Cheng suddenly wrinkled her nose, sniffing suspiciously. She kept smelling around, feeling like there was a strange smell in the room.


It was a familiar scent, but she couldn’t quite recall it right now.


"There’s a weird smell in here. I’ve noticed it a few times already."


"It’s probably just the air freshener."


Chen Cheng shook her head. "No… there’s also a bit of a fishy smell…"


At that moment, An Yuan realized what she had picked up on. His face turned stiff, and he quickly looked away, avoiding eye contact.


At first, he felt guilty about using Chen Cheng as, well… inspiration. But after a while, he got used to it, sometimes even two or three times a day. Then, a community doctor warned him that he might be overdoing it, so he tried to cut back.


But now that Chen Cheng was his girlfriend? And she kept unintentionally teasing him every day? There was no way his young, energetic body could resist. By the end of the day, his trash can was practically half full of tissues.


"It kinda smells like…" Chen Cheng was slowly connecting the dots. Then her eyes widened. "Wait, no way…"


"No way what?" An Yuan asked, trying to stay calm. But his face had already turned red. He acted all righteous and defensive. "Come on, you know guys our age can’t control that kind of thing. And besides, I’m at home, what’s wrong with that?"


"I mean… fair point…"


Chen Cheng knew that An Yuan was physically attracted to her, but it was hard to imagine him actually… handling things himself.


An Yuan complained. "Isn't it your fault for constantly teasing me all day?"


"Me?!"


"Who else?"


Chen Cheng suddenly smirked. She stood up from the bed, untied the belt of her coat, and flung it open.


"Surprise!"


Underneath was the tiny dress An Yuan had bought for her online. A mini skirt so short it barely covered anything, made of fabric so thin it almost showed the soft pink of her skin. She even had black stockings on.


An Yuan’s eyes instantly widened, completely mesmerized. His gaze burned with a possessive hunger, like he wanted to devour her on the spot.


Chen Cheng loved seeing him stunned like that. Satisfied, she smugly wrapped the coat around herself again. "Heh~"


"I think… you might need to take responsibility for this."


"Hmm?"


Following his awkward and embarrassed gaze, she looked down at the blanket, where a very obvious "hill" had formed.


"Figure it out yourself!" Chen Chen’s face turned bright red, and she quickly turned away.


There was no way she was helping with that!


"Chengcheng~" An Yuan knew she was weak against soft pleas, so he whined pitifully. "It really hurts…"


"I mean, it’s not like I’ve never been a guy before…" Chen Cheng mumbled, trying to talk herself out of it. But then she hesitated. "Wait… is it really that bad?"


"Yeah!"


Somehow, she felt like he wasn’t actually suffering as much as he claimed.


But… she really couldn’t stand the way he was begging her. Her heart softened in an instant. She looked at him with hesitation and suspicion, but his eyes were so sincere.


Feeling incredibly embarrassed, she fidgeted with her fingers, torn between choices. This time… she was really in trouble.


"Just… just this once, okay?"


But his dad was still outside!


That only made it feel even more thrilling.
