The next morning.

When sunlight streamed through the curtains, Lu Nancheng stirred, opened his eyes, and woke up.

He immediately felt someone sleeping in his arms, soft and fragrant. Looking down, he saw it was Lin Xiyao.

Lin Xiyao was fast asleep in his arms.

Memories of last night immediately flooded back, and Lu Nancheng closed his eyes briefly, feeling somewhat dejected.

It seems it wasn't a dream; he and Lin Xiyao really did take their on-screen romance to real life last night.

He couldn't remember how long the two of them had been acting crazy; it seemed they had only gone to sleep in the early hours of the morning, and Lin Xiyao was still asleep.

Lu Nancheng was speechless. He didn't know how to define their marriage to a wealthy family.

At this moment, Lin Xiyao in her arms stirred and opened her sleepy eyes; she had also woken up.

Lu Nancheng looked down at her. She was drowsy, and her eyes had lost their usual coldness, replaced by a touch of childishness and cuteness.

Lu Nancheng, "Awake?"

Lin Xiyao rubbed her eyes. "Good morning."

Lu Nancheng: "Good morning."

Then he wanted to say something, "We..."

At this moment, Lin Xiyao pulled away from his embrace and sat up. "I need to get up. I'll go wash up first."

Lin Xiyao got out of bed and went into the bathroom.

She just left like this?

Not a single word?

Lu Nancheng really didn't expect her to react this way. Last night, he and she had taken their fake relationship to real, but she didn't react at all.

Lu Nancheng threw off the covers and got out of bed. He went to the bathroom door.

Lin Xiyao was brushing her teeth in front of the sink when Lu Nancheng leaned lazily against the doorframe, watching her. "What are your thoughts on last night?"

Lin Xiyao calmly spat out the water, then looked up at him through the mirror, "I have no thoughts."

Lu Nancheng frowned. "What do you mean?"

Lin Xiyao: "Last night was just an accident. You can completely pretend nothing happened!"

Lu Nancheng was completely bewildered, having no idea what she was trying to say.

He stood up. "But we definitely did it last night."

Lin Xiyao turned to look at him, "We are husband and wife, it's normal for this to happen."

"But, but our marriage is an arranged one..."

"So you can pretend nothing happened!"

Lu Nancheng, "..."

Lin Xiyao approached Lu Nancheng. "Lu Nancheng, I know what you want to say. What I mean is, let's keep things as they are. Don't let what happened last night cause us any psychological burden!"

After saying that, Lin Xiyao went into the room. "You can go wash up now."

Lu Nancheng was speechless again. He was completely taken aback by her train of thought.

Just then, a knock sounded on the door, and Aunt Rong's voice came from outside, "Young Master! Young Madam! Are you awake?"

Lin Xiyao: "Aunt Rong, we're awake. Come in."

Aunt Rong immediately pushed open the door and entered, "Good morning, young master and young mistress!"

Lin Xiyao: "Good morning!"

Aunt Rong immediately saw the battlefield in the room. As someone with experience, she could tell at a glance that the two of them had made love last night.

Aunt Rong smiled broadly, "Congratulations, young master and young mistress! The old master will be so happy to know you've consummated your marriage!"

Lu Nancheng washed his face in the bathroom without saying a word.

Aunt Rong said, "Young Master and Young Madam, you two need to work harder from now on. You are young and healthy, and it will be easy for you to get pregnant. Try to let the old man hold his great-grandson as soon as possible!"

Lu Nancheng paused for a moment, then suddenly realized that he hadn't taken any precautions last night.

He originally lived in this villa alone, and he hadn't prepared any of these things here.

He didn't consider these things last night either.

Compared to his reaction, Lin Xiyao remained calm and said, "Aunt Rong, I understand."

Aunt Rong was delighted. "I'll come and clean the room. Breakfast is ready. Young master and young mistress, please have breakfast."

Lin Xiyao: "Okay."

Lu Nancheng and Lin Xiyao sat in the dining room. Aunt Rong served a bowl of soup first, saying, "Young Madam, please drink this soup first. This soup can replenish a woman's lost vitality."

Lin Xiyao said, "Thank you, Aunt Rong."

Lin Xiyao started drinking the soup.

Lu Nancheng picked up the milk and took a sip. He looked at Lin Xiyao across from him and wondered if it was because of the care she received last night, but today she seemed even more radiant, as if she were soaking in a honey pot.

Perhaps noticing his gaze, Lin Xiyao looked up at him. "Why are you looking at me? Do you want a drink?"

Lu Nancheng, "...No need, thank you!"

Aunt Rong laughed and said, "Young Madam, Young Master doesn't need to drink these! We've been single for over twenty years, we have plenty of strength and methods!"

Lu Nancheng glared at Aunt Rong, "Alright, Aunt Rong, stop talking!"

Aunt Rong said, "I'll go to the kitchen and bring out the bird's nest soup. Young Madam, please drink all the soup. This soup is not only good for your health, but it also helps with conceiving!"

Lu Nancheng almost spat out the mouthful of milk he was drinking.

Aunt Rong turned and went into the kitchen.

Lu Nancheng looked at Lin Xiyao, who was still drinking soup across from him, and asked, "Mrs. Lu, are you really going to drink this soup?"

Lin Xiyao: "Is there something wrong with this soup?"

"This helps with getting pregnant."

"I see."

Lu Nancheng, "..."

He noticed that no matter what she said, she didn't seem to respond.

At this moment, Lin Xiyao finished her soup, stood up, and said, "You can eat slowly, I'm leaving now."

Lin Xiyao got up to leave.

But Lu Nancheng grabbed her arm. "Wait."

Lin Xiyao, "What's wrong?"

Lu Nancheng, "Lin Xiyao, what exactly do you mean?"

"what do you mean?"

"You said you would pretend nothing happened last night, but now Aunt Rong is offering you this pregnancy soup, and you haven't refused. Do you really intend to get pregnant?"

Lin Xiyao: "Or what? Are you planning to make me take birth control pills?"

Lu Nancheng frowned.

Lin Xiyao: "Birth control pills are very harmful to a woman's body, so I refuse to take them."

Lu Nancheng had no intention of making her take birth control pills, because he hadn't considered that aspect yet. Last night's events had disrupted all his plans, leaving him in a mess.

Lin Xiyao pushed him away. "If you have nothing to say, then I'll go first. Goodbye."

Lin Xiyao left.

Lu Nancheng watched her retreating figure, "..."

Just then, Aunt Rong came out carrying a bowl of bird's nest soup. "Young Madam, please eat it while it's hot... Oh, where is the Young Madam?"

Lu Nancheng: "Your young mistress just left."

"You're gone? But we haven't eaten the bird's nest yet."

"Aunt Rong, I'm leaving now too."

Lu Nancheng turned and left.

Aunt Rong: "Young Master, why did you leave too? No, why did both of you leave?"

…………

Lu Nancheng arrived at the president's office of Lu's Group. Assistant Li walked in and said, "President Lu, these are the documents to be reviewed."

Lu Nancheng opened the file. "Assistant Li, I want to ask you something."

Assistant Li said, "Mr. Lu, please ask! I will answer to the best of my knowledge!"
