‘Big Brother, you want to expand the Shen Ji Pastry Shop?” Shen Yao asked softly as he picked up a piece of fish and put it into the bowl in front of Ji Zhao.

‘Yes.” Eldest Brother Shen immediately nodded. “Previously, Shen Ji almost went bankrupt. It was all thanks to Ah Tao’s help in signing the contract with the Qin family. In addition, Double Skin Milk is selling very well. Now, Shen Ji’s business is getting better and better.”

“1 want to take advantage of this momentum to expand the shopfront of Shen

Ji. However, there are no suitable shops on West Street. East Street is not bad.’ Eldest Brother Shen analyzed seriously. “Moreover, in terms of the market entrance, East Street is naturally better. It’s just that the rent is a little expensive.’

“It’s better to buy it than rent it.” Ji Zhao, who was listening attentively, immediately put down her chopsticks. “Big Brother, why don’t you consider buying the shop property?

‘The shops in the county are very expensive, and the boss behind the row of shops on East Street is Madam Ma.” Eldest Brother Shen smiled helplessly. ‘Although I have the intention, I’m powerless!”

More importantly, even if he had enough money, he might not be able to buy the shops on East Street.

‘Alright, alright. Let’s eat in peace. It’s not easy for us to have a holiday. Don’t worry about business matters.” Sensing the low atmosphere, Zhao Lanhua quickly called out, “Don’t just stand there. Hurry up and eat!”

After dinner, the men of the Shen family helped to clean up the dishes.

‘This?” Ji Zhao looked at the scene in front of him and was stunned. “Mother, why don’t I wash the dishes?”

‘One look at Third Sister-in-law and I can tell that you don’t know the rules of our Shen family for the new year,” Second Sister-in-law Shen said happily. ‘Eldest Sister-in-law, quickly tell our Ah Tao?”

Eldest Sister-in-law Shen nodded and smiled. “Ah Tao, don’t feel sorry for them. During New Year’s and on holidays, men have to wash the dishes at home. This is also a rule set by our mother.”

Zhao Lanhua excitedly walked into the central room with a large plate of melon seeds and peanuts. She said with a smile, “Ah Tao, come and munch on melon seeds! There’s also Mother’s five-spice peanuts. Come and try them?”

It was not until early in the evening that Ji Zhao, who could not hold back her sleepiness, prepared to return to her room to rest.

The moment she pushed open the door, she saw a tall figure.

She subconsciously rubbed her eyes and muttered softly, ‘Did I enter the wrong house?

Shen Yao, who was dressed in red, slowly approached. The smile on his face was as gentle as jade.

The moment the door was closed by the wind, Ji Zhao swallowed nervously.

‘You… Why are you dressed like this?”

’11t doesn’t look good?” Shen Yao raised an eyebrow and asked instead of answering.

‘Y-you look good!” Ji Zhao hurriedly nodded, her eyes filled with unconcealed amazement. “I, I just didn’t expect Shen Yao… you would look so good in red.” He was dressed in a long red robe, which accentuated his tall and straight figure.

His black hair was casually scattered behind him, adding to his lazy and charming temperament.

Shen Yao was handsome to begin with, and the red color seemed to make him even more dazzling.

‘Then does Ah Tao like it?” Shen Yao approached her.

Ji Zhao, who was a little nervous, subconsciously retreated.

One step after another, she finally leaned against the wall, unable to retreat.

‘You, you, you… Shen Yao… I.

‘Ah Tao, don’t you like it?” Shen Yao suddenly lifted her chin, his deep eyes filled with love.

‘Il… I like it!” Ji Zhao gulped again and nodded honestly.

“When Qin Minghong appeared in red at the restaurant today, Ah Tao, you were dazed.” Shen Yao pressed his forehead against hers. His seemingly calm tone was filled with grievance.

Ji Zhao could hear the strong jealousy in her voice and could not help but laugh. ‘Cough cough, Brother Qin in red is indeed very good-looking.”

‘Does Ah Tao mean the person or the clothes?” Shen Yao asked impatiently.

“What do you think?” Ji Zhao pinched his earlobe helplessly. Her gentle almond-shaped eyes were as bright as the stars. “My Ah Yao is the most handsome man. No one can compare to him.” Hearing this, Shen Yao instantly smiled.

‘Ah Tao, can you…”

‘No!” Before Shen Yao could finish speaking, Ji Zhao immediately crossed her arms and hugged herself nervously. ‘Although I praised you for being good-looking, you can’t… you can’t push your luck!”

‘Ah Tao, I want…”

‘No, you don’t!” Ji Zhao hurriedly interrupted him. “Shen Yao, Mother has already told me that before this woman turns 18, it’s best not to have sex, let alone get pregnant and have children early. So let’s postpone consummating the marriage for two years, okay?”

‘You have no choice but to agree. I’ve already told Mother that this is your idea…” Ji Zhao secretly sized up his expression and blinked nervously.

‘So Ah Tao is thinking about consummating the marriage?” Shen Yao suddenly smiled. “So the reason why you were blushing in the kitchen earlier was because you were discussing consummating the marriage with me with Mother?”

‘Mm…” Ji Zhao nodded silently, her voice as soft as a mosquito.

‘Do you want to consummate our marriage?

‘Of course not!” Ji Zhao puffed up her cheeks angrily and turned her head away from him.

Looking at her innocent expression, the smile in Shen Yao’s eyes deepened.

‘Ah Tao, don’t call me Shen Yao anymore, okay?”

‘Huh?” Ji Zhao was stunned, and his eyes were filled with confusion. “What should I call you if not Shen Yao?”

Most importantly, if she were to call him ‘honey’ now, she, she, she… she wouldn’t be able to say it now!

‘Ah Yao is fine.” Shen Yao kissed her cheek and smiled. “I like this nickname.’ ‘Oh,” Ji Zhao replied in a daze and nodded slightly.

‘IAS for consummating the marriage…” Shen Yao could not help but pull her into his arms. His tone became even gentler. ‘Let’s listen to Mother and wait for a while!”

It was not that they had not tried to consummate their marriage before, but at that time, Shen Yao could still feel the fear and uneasiness in Ah Tao’s heart.

He was a very proud person. He did not want to force Ah Tao.

Moreover, the love between husband and wife should be a sweetness, not a burden.

Ji Zhao wanted to ask him how long a while was.

A day? A month? Another year?

Actually, she was not against being close to Shen Yao. It was just that there were a few times when they almost reached the last step, all kinds of accidents would always happen.

‘Shen Yao, do you love me?” Ji Zhao, who was leaning in his arms with her eyes closed, asked softly.

‘Yes.” Shen Yao rubbed her shoulder and raised his eyebrows gently.

Ji Zhao smiled sweetly and grabbed his pinky finger. Then, she hooked her pinly finger on it and finally stamped it.

She suddenly looked into his eyes and smiled gently.

Before Shen Yao could react, Ji Zhao suddenly tiptoed and wrapped her arms around his neck. She took the initiative to kiss him. ‘Ah Yao, I love you too.”

Hearing this, Shen Yao’s heart skipped a beat and he responded to the kiss enthusiastically.

After an unknown period of time, Ji Zhao actually fell asleep in his arms.

Listening to her snores, Shen Yao smiled helplessly.

He raised his hand and tapped the tip of her nose lovingly. “What a silly girl.” Ji Zhao slept extremely soundly.

She did not wake up until late in the morning. However, the moment she opened her eyes, she was in a daze.

Recalling what happened last night before she went to bed, she shyly pulled the blanket over and covered her head!

This, this, this… this was too embarrassing, right?

She should be the only woman in the world who could fall asleep even when kissing, right?

Squeak—

When Shen Yao pushed open the door and entered the room, he saw a lump of blanket on the bed.

‘Ah Tao is awake?”

‘No, she’s not awake yet!”

‘Then is Ah Tao talking in her sleep?” Shen Yao could not help but ask with a smile.

Ji Zhao silently lifted the blanket.

‘Are you hungry?” Shen Yao smiled and handed the bowl of noodles in his hand to her. ‘Mother made shredded meat noodles. Try it?”

’11t smells so good!” Ji Zhao took a deep breath. After smelling the fragrance, she quickly got off the bed and washed up. Then, she sat upright beside the desk.

The entire set of actions was like flowing water, done in one go.

‘Mother’s shredded meat noodles are delicious, right?” After a while, the bottom of the bowl of shredded meat noodles could be seen.

‘But looking at the sky outside, it’s getting late, right?”

‘Yes, it’s already 9 am.” Shen Yao sighed as he wiped her lips. “I was reprimanded by mother this morning. She accused me of going back on my word.

‘Huh? Why?”

“It’s probably because my Ah Tao is too good at sleeping, so Mother misunderstood.’

Although Shen Yao said it casually, Ji Zhao still blushed..
