Su Bai unsurprisingly didn't sleep well that night, tossing and turning all night over someone with a very strong presence. When he appeared the next day with heavy dark circles under his eyes, he gave Hua Jueming a big fright.

"Madam, what's wrong?" Hua Jueming asked with a hint of anticipation. Could it be that his master had suddenly become enlightened last night and made up for their wedding night?

Su Bai waved his hand, not wanting to say more! Because it would be useless to say anything! Hua Jueming was Hua Gengchen's butler, not his butler. It was impossible for Hua Jueming to help him kick Hua Gengchen out of the room!

Just as Hua Jueming was about to press further, Hua Gengchen stretched and came down the stairs with a satisfied look on his face. He had slept very well! Even better than he had expected! "Butler Hua, is breakfast ready?"

Upon hearing Hua Gengchen's voice, Su Bai quickened his pace, distancing himself from him. He didn't want to be with Hua Gengchen for even a second.

Thinking back to how he was completely captivated by Hua Gengchen's good physique and looks yesterday, Su Bai even wanted to travel back in time and beat that lecherous version of himself to death.

Seeing Su Bai's attitude of avoiding Hua Gengchen like the plague, Hua Jueming immediately started to imagine that his master had gone too far last night and hurt the madam, so the madam was angry.

It was his fault for not preparing the necessary items for his owner beforehand! But he won't make that mistake again!

Hua Jueming replied respectfully, "It's ready. Do we need it now?" He wondered if Yang Mian had the foresight to prepare an extra nourishing soup. The lady's complexion looked really bad. How could she give birth to a baby like this?

"Hmm." Hua Gengchen slept very well, so his mood was naturally better. Seeing Su Bai avoiding him made him even happier.

Upon arriving at the restaurant, Hua Jueming intended to prepare a cushion for Su Bai, but Su Bai quickly chose a seat furthest from Hua Gengchen, leaving Hua Jueming no time to bring the cushion. Because Su Bai seemed genuinely angry, Hua Jueming dared not openly mention preparing a cushion for him; what if Su Bai became even more enraged and took it out on his master?

Hua Gengchen said nothing about Su Bai's actions, letting Su Bai do as he pleased, as long as Su Bai was under his watchful eye.

Hua Jueming continued to speculate. Why was his master only half-awake? It was obvious he needed to appease him! Otherwise, when would he ever get a chance to eat meat again? Didn't he know that the most crucial time was afterward?

That's what everyone's saying online!

Fearing that his master wouldn't understand, Hua Jueming, who had created an online account to study, wanted to remind Hua Gengchen but didn't dare, so he could only keep his thoughts to himself.

The servants quickly brought out breakfast. For Su Bai, there was a bowl of lotus seed porridge, four small steamed buns, and two side dishes, while for Hua Gengchen, there was a greasy steak, freshly pan-fried and sizzling hot.

Su Bai watched in shock as Hua Gengchen picked up his knife and fork and ate a steak with elegance and speed. Then the servant brought out another sizzling hot steak. A few minutes later, another steak was brought out, and a few minutes later, another steak, until the tenth steak was served before Hua Gengchen finally stopped eating.

As Hua Gengchen wiped his mouth with a tissue, he noticed Su Bai's gaze and asked seriously, "Would you like one too?" He wasn't the type to be possessive of his food; as long as his treasure trove wasn't touched, everything else was fine.

"No, thank you." He really couldn't understand the lives of these rich people. Getting up first thing in the morning to eat steak, and even eating ten servings at once? Where did all that food go?

Su Bai picked up a small steamed bun with his chopsticks, his eyes darting around the table. He wondered how bloated Hua Gengchen's stomach was. That was ten steaks! He got sick of eating just one, how did Hua Gengchen manage to eat ten steaks so quickly?

I really can't figure it out.

With the steamed buns and side dishes, Su Bai quickly finished a bowl of porridge. After eating, Su Bai seemed to be in better spirits, and Hua Jueming's desire to settle scores with Yang Mian also vanished.

After all, not everyone is as thoughtful as he is.

However, Hua Jueming still decided to give Yang Mian a proper training so that if she encountered a situation like today again, she would have to prepare the tonic soup well in advance, otherwise when would the little master be born?

After breakfast, Su Bai changed his clothes and prepared to go to the other courtyard to hoe the ground. This was something he couldn't let anyone else help him with; he had to do it himself.

As before, Su Bai always took a car to the villa. After changing his clothes, he arrived at the door and was about to get into the car when he discovered that there were other people already in the car.

Standing in front of the car door, Su Bai looked at Hua Gengchen sitting inside. Her thoughts suddenly took a turn. Hua Gengchen had eaten ten steaks and his stomach wasn't even round? She shook her head, pulling her wandering thoughts back. "Are you going too?" Shouldn't Hua Gengchen be going to the company?

"Of course!" Hua Gengchen answered without hesitation. Su Bai had to stay under his watchful eye at all times. Wherever Su Bai went, he would naturally go too.

If it weren't for the fact that Su Bai is a descendant of Shennong, Hua Gengchen would have directly restricted Su Bai from going out, because the probability of an accident happening outside is too high. If anything happens to Su Bai, he and the entire demon race cannot afford to lose!

Upon hearing Hua Gengchen's words, Su Bai blinked first, then asked foolishly, "Don't you go to work?" Didn't he even skip his wedding to handle matters abroad before? Hua Gengchen has already been labeled a workaholic, so how could he do something that goes against his personality? Isn't that too... ridiculous?

Going to work? What's that?

Hua Gengchen said he wasn't very familiar with this thing.

Hua Jueming walked up to Hua Gengchen and whispered the reason for the matter to him, and even found a perfect excuse for Hua Gengchen not to go to work.

After hearing Hua Jueming's explanation, Hua Gengchen said to Su Bai in a serious tone, "I'm done with my work, now it's my honeymoon."

"Click!" Su Bai froze on the spot, unable to believe what he had just heard.

How could he have heard such a refined and unconventional thing as a honeymoon vacation from Hua Gengchen's mouth?

“You don’t need to come with me on your honeymoon! Wouldn’t it be better to rest at home?” Su Bai said with an awkward smile.

Hua Gengchen looked calmly at Su Bai and said, word by word, "Isn't the honeymoon supposed to be a time for the two of you to spend together? If you don't have time, then I'll just have to accommodate you."

"Click!" Su Bai's body stiffened again. Did he need Hua Gengchen to give in? No, he didn't!

"There's no law that says a honeymoon has to be spent by two people! And I'm really busy, I don't have time for you, you should just stay home!" What a joke, who would carry around a moving iceberg? Although Hua Gengchen's cold aura hasn't exploded yet, it could explode at any time, and he doesn't want to carry around a bomb warning all the time.

Hua Gengchen completely ignored Su Bai's words, not even sparing Su Bai a glance, and directly showed with his actions that he was determined to go!

Su Bai puffed up her cheeks in anger again. How could Hua Gengchen be so willful?

It was true last night, and it's even more so now!

Seeing that things were not going well, Hua Jueming immediately stepped forward to explain, "Madam, the head of the family has his reasons for doing this; he was truly forced into it!"

"What do you mean by 'forced'?" Su Bai questioned. If he wasn't given a plausible reason, he would have clashed with Hua Gengchen again today. Don't think he would compromise as easily as he did last night.

Hua Jueming said, "It's just that the Hua family rules are there, and some elders are secretly watching, so the patriarch can't do anything about it." In this emergency, we should make the best of a bad situation and let those old fogies take the blame again!

Anyway, it's all for the sake of the head of the family and his wife being well.

"Family rules govern this?" Su Bai really didn't expect that the reclusive family had so many bizarre rules. The previous rule that he had to call her 'Madam' was already enough to make his teeth ache, and now there's a rule that they have to be together during their honeymoon period. This is simply... Su Bai couldn't find the words to describe it. In short, it's extremely bizarre.

Hua Jueming nodded firmly. Su Bai still found it somewhat unbelievable, and looked at Hua Jueming suspiciously, "You're not here to lie to me, are you?"

"How could that be!" Hua Jueming's voice unconsciously rose a little. "This rule exists because most of the heads of the Hua family are married into other families. It was created to help them get to know each other better and increase their affection."

Hua Jueming's mind worked quickly, and he soon found a perfect reason that made Su Bai have no choice but to believe him.

"So when is this honeymoon going to end?" Su Bai let his hands fall limply. There has to be a time limit, right? If Hua Gengchen keeps following him like this, won't he just have a leech that he can't shake off? What freedom and privacy will he have left then?

"The original rule was that the honeymoon would end when the pregnancy started." Hua Jueming really wanted to hold his little master, so he made up a story. However, Su Bai's shocked gaze and Hua Gengchen's warning gaze fell on him almost at the same time. For the sake of his life, Hua Jueming immediately changed the subject. "However, the family later discussed and decided that the honeymoon would last for three months. During this period, the two of them must stay together."

As soon as Hua Jueming finished speaking, Hua Gengchen looked away. Very good! As expected of the butler he chose, he perfectly solved the problem of him having to stay in Su Bai for three months.

Su Bai's shocked gaze remained fixed on him. Three months!? Not three days or three weeks, but a full three months!

"Really, I can't leave even for a minute?" Su Bai asked pitifully. How could he stay with Hua Gengchen for three months? Did he even want to live?

“Generally speaking, it’s not possible, but we can make an exception unless there’s a very urgent situation. However, it’s best to stay together.” Seeing Su Bai’s pitiful appearance, Hua Jueming couldn’t bear to say it outright and could only agree.

Upon hearing this, Su Bai did not feel comforted.

He glanced at Hua Gengchen, who was sitting motionless in the car, and muttered to himself, "It's a miracle that the Hua family hasn't been wiped out yet!" A family with so many bizarre and numerous rules has managed to survive for so long; it's truly a blessing from their ancestors!

"You haven't been to the company for three months. Aren't you afraid someone will plot against you?" Su Bai still didn't want to give up. He tried one last time. He really couldn't stay with Hua Gengchen for three whole months.

Su Shengrong felt that someone was trying to take his position as president if he didn't go to the company for a day. Hua Gengchen didn't go to the company for three months. Could the company really still operate normally?

"I'm not afraid!" Hua Gengchen said confidently. The company was a fabrication. As for the Hua family's affairs, they have always been managed by outsiders for over a thousand years, and he has never seen anything happen to them. If any of his demons have any disloyal intentions, he will hunt them down to the ends of the earth until he grinds them to dust.

Hua Gengchen's affirmative attitude made Su Bai's teeth ache. He silently cursed Hua Gengchen's company to go bankrupt, and wished that Hua Gengchen would be destitute!

Resigned to his fate, Su Bai got into the car like a deflated balloon. With Hua Gengchen, a walking iceberg, around, he had to be even more careful. Neither revenge nor the system could be something Hua Gengchen knew about!

Sighing deeply, Su Bai thought, "If I had known the Hua family had so many rules, I wouldn't have chosen Hua Gengchen. I could have chosen someone less troublesome, and I wouldn't be so worried now."

"Drive." Hua Gengchen glanced at Su Bai's dejected look out of the corner of his eye, and his mood improved a little. He was even secretly looking forward to what would happen in the next three months.
