Chapter 270: Love Always Comes After Becoming a Woman, Right?
How do you become a proper woman?
First, you have to become a woman. Say goodbye to being a girl. Become a woman!
Early in the morning, Lin Yibai woke up in bed. She didn’t want to move at all because it hurt a lot whenever she tried. So she just lay there thinking about some random things.
Xia Changyu definitely spent the night on the sofa. He must have been in pain too, but she wouldn’t let him get on the bed.
Because, you know, don’t add fuel to the fire, who knows if he would cause trouble again?
After all, she used to be a man too, so she really understands how stubborn men can be.
“Creak~”
“Bang~~”
The apartment door was opened skillfully. Xia Changyu walked in. This apartment felt even more familiar and warm to him than his own place.
He rubbed his hands and said shyly, holding a big breakfast, “Baiyi... um, why don’t you get up and eat some breakfast first?”
Lin Yibai put down her phone, turned to the other side, and said quietly, “I don’t want to eat.”
Xia Changyu was shocked, “Ah, why not?”
Lin Yibai said, “No reason. I’m in a bad mood and it hurts, so I don’t want to eat. Is that not allowed?”
“You can, of course you can,” Xia Changyu said, but he didn’t want to give up so easily. He really wanted to always pamper his girlfriend, but skipping breakfast was unacceptable.
He put the breakfast on the table, then gently supported Lin Yibai's shoulders and softly said, “Alright, my beloved girlfriend. Just eat a little, even if it’s just a little bit.”
Lin Yibai pouted, looking upset, “I told you, I just don’t want to eat right now.”
Xia Changyu said, “Just one bite is fine.”
Lin Yibai wanted to bite him to get back at him, that damn guy had taken away the most important thing from her last night. How could he be so bad?
The more she thought about it, the angrier and sadder she felt. She was about to lose it.
Then she looked up and saw Xia Changyu’s slightly smiling face. Handsome, sincere, caring…
Suddenly, all her anger disappeared.
After all, who did she choose? Xia Changyu was her boyfriend, the one she promised to be with.
Lin Yibai sighed softly, “Okay then.”
Xia Changyu asked, “What do you want to eat first? There’s fried dough sticks, peanut soup, meat patties, and your favorite big meat buns.”
Lin Yibai said, “I want to brush my teeth and wash my face first.”
Seeing that Lin Yibai’s mood seemed better, Xia Changyu relaxed a little and smiled, “It’s okay. Just eat one bite first.”
Lin Yibai sighed again, as if she really couldn’t help him. She lightly tapped Xia Changyu’s forehead with her thin finger and said, “Spoiling someone has to have limits, okay!”
With that, she limped toward the bathroom. Obviously, the injury she got last night wouldn’t heal quickly. Saying she couldn’t get out of bed was an exaggeration, but she would definitely have trouble moving for a few days.
Xia Changyu wanted to come help her, but Lin Yibai pushed him away casually. “Do I need your help?”
She brushed her teeth and washed her face. Then, enjoying the quiet morning, she looked out the window at the light morning mist while eating the breakfast Xia Changyu fed her little by little.
Her body hurt a little, but her mood was calm and the view was nice.
The busy life during her senior year internship seemed to slow down a lot, so relaxed. And there was that annoying guy, taking care of her carefully and thoughtfully.
To be honest, Lin Yibai felt like just lying back and waiting for Xia Changyu to take care of her was enough.
Why bother finding a job? Why study for a government job?
All she had to do was act cute every day, act a little spoiled, say some sweet words, then sleep with him, and then fast forward to marriage, kids, and family life?
‘Is this really the life I want?’
Lin Yibai shivered a little and quickly picked up the book for the civil service exam next to her. Only then did she feel a little calm. Then she looked at the person sitting nearby and asked curiously, “Um, do you not have to go to work today?”
Xia Changyu smiled and said, “I took the day off. I want to take care of you fully today. You know, I own the company myself, so if I don’t want to go, I don’t have to.”
Lin Yibai said firmly, “I can take care of myself, but thank you for your concern.”
Xia Changyu quickly waved his hand. He thought she might have misunderstood, thinking he looked down on her because she was weak. So he quickly explained, “I really just want to take care of you, nothing else.”
Lin Yibai said again, “If you only stayed to take care of me, then you really don’t have to. Everyone has their own things to do. I’m at home now, studying for the civil service exam. What about you? What are you doing at home with me? I’m not disabled... and I’m not the kind of person who gets upset if you don’t stay with me.”
Xia Changyu said, “Baiyi, I...”
Lin Yibai interrupted, “If you go to the company now, you should still have time. You can arrange today’s work first. If you work fast, maybe you can still make it back for the lunch I saved for you?”
ia Changyu felt very touched. This was one of the many things he liked about his girlfriend.
She would never try to control a man or force him to do something according to her wishes.
Because in Lin Yibai’s eyes, controlling a guy to get what you want is like using a trump card!
She knew guys very well. They would pamper a girl once, twice, three or four times. But too much 'demanding' will just result in tiredness and annoyance.
They can really love you, but they can also lose all love for you in an instant.
For Lin Yibai, if she had to use this power, it meant there was a big problem between them. She also thought of herself as an easygoing person.
If even the trump card doesn’t work, then maybe it’s time for the two to end things. When it’s time to break up, they would just break up.
So she would never easily use her own stubbornness to control a guy’s will.
Xia Changyu raised his eyebrows and after a moment said, “Then I’ll come back as soon as possible.”
Clearly, Lin Yibai was right.
No matter how small a convenience store is, there are always lots of things to do every day. Besides, Xia Changyu ran a company with more than ten employees!
Just as Xia Changyu was about to get up, Lin Yibai suddenly called, “Wait a minute.”
Xia Changyu asked confused, “Ah, what’s wrong?”
Lin Yibai said, “I can’t move easily right now. Just come a little closer to me.”
Xia Changyu took a few steps toward her. While he was wondering what it was, he suddenly felt something heavy on his neck. It was Lin Yibai’s hands around his neck, and a faint sweet smell came to him.
Before he could think more, he felt softness near his mouth.
Lin Yibai gently kissed him lightly and then said, “Okay, it’s nothing. You can go now.”
Xia Changyu touched his lips, which still felt warm from the kiss, and then smiled.
His mood for the whole day.
From now on, everything will surely be bright and joyful.
