Is there a problem? We came back after our run and now we have to head back to your place. Naturally, we need to start running earlier than usual,” Tang Moxi walked out of the bathroom and replied. Liuli was already speechless.

Mr. Tang would do anything to torment her!

Liuli felt down, but she still did what she had to do.

After Mr. Tang carried her to the foot of the mountain and they did some warm-up exercises, they began their run around the mountain!

Liuli felt like she was about to pass out.

“Brother Moxi, don’t we usually run one kilometer each day?” Liuli asked, swallowing hard.

“Yes, that’s the distance on the mountain path. But now that we’re running on flat ground, the physical exertion will increase the distance!” Tang Moxi explained.

“Boohoo, it feels like we’ll have to run thousands of kilometers!” Liuli exclaimed.

“Well, this mountain is about three kilometers away. So don’t worry, it’s not thousands of kilometers!” Tang Moxi reassured her.

“Uh…” Liuli found the joke rather cold.

As Liuli ran, she decided she wouldn’t care if she fainted later.

Mr. Tang was just too cruel.

She wished she could draw a circle and curse him!

Liuli complained as she continued running.

Thanks to their previous training, it wasn’t as agonizing and grueling as the first time they ran!

However, the thought of running over three kilometers disheartened Liuli once again.

She could only push herself as far as she could go.

Just as Liuli felt overwhelmed and could barely move her legs…

Then Mr. Tang said, “That’s all for today!”

Liuli thought she had heard incorrectly and immediately looked up.

She hadn’t even completed one lap!

She was about to stop, but Mr. Tang pulled her along.

“You can walk the rest of the way back!”

Liuli lowered her head and couldn’t help but laugh.

Haha, there was no need to finish the entire route.

Mr. Tang still had some compassion!

“Feeling tired?” Mr. Tang asked again at that moment.

Liuli looked up and stopped smiling.

“I’m so exhausted! I’m so worn out!”

Tang Moxi gently touched her head, feeling a bit helpless. Then, he approached her and crouched down.

Get on my back!” 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝓌𝑒𝒷𝘯𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝑜𝓂

No, no need. I’ll walk back.” Liuli was taken aback for a moment before quickly waving her hand.

“Come on, I’ll carry you back!”

“It was Brother Moxi who wanted to carry me, not the other way around!” Liuli emphasized before lying on Tang Moxi’s back and allowing him to carry her.

Tang Moxi engaged in conversation with Liuli as he carried her on his back.

“Your physical condition isn’t great, so you need to train more.”

“After training, your immune system will also strengthen.”

“You won’t catch colds as often.”

“Do I frequently catch colds?”

“My mother-in-law says you catch a cold every month or two.”

“Oh, that was in the past. I rarely catch colds now.”

“See, I haven’t caught a cold since 1 met you,” Liuli replied.

“We’ve known each other for less than two months!” Tang Moxi pointed out.

“I won’t catch a cold either!” Liuli pouted.

“That’s the best!” Tang Moxi smiled.

“Brother Moxi, when are you going back to headquarters?”

“Why can’t you bear to see me leave?” Tang Moxi turned to look at her and asked.

“No… I was just asking!”

“You won’t miss me!”

“Well… actually, I will, but a man has to prioritize his career, right?”

“Then it’s alright. Brother Moxi, you still have to work hard!” Liuli replied with a faint smile.

“When do you start school?” Tang Moxi asked.

“It’s the tenth day of the lunar calendar. I might go back to school on the ninth!”

“Oh, 1 need to book a plane ticket in advance. Otherwise, I might not get one!” Liuli suddenly remembered.

“You don’t have to book it. I’ll come back and pick you up!”

“No, no need. 1 can go back to school by myself!” Liuli quickly said.

“You don’t want me to pick you up?”

“It’s not that. I’m just worried about wasting your time! You’re so busy, Brother Moxi!”

“No matter how busy I am, I still have time to pick up my wife!”

“Brother Moxi, do you really consider me your… wife?” Liuli couldn’t help but mutter.

“Aren’t you my wife?”

“But it’s only in name, right?”

“Maybe it will become true in the future!”

“Hehe, hehe!” Liuli could only smile foolishly, her face turning red.

Before she realized it, Liuli had asked Mr. Tang to carry her to the parking lot.

Initially, Liuli intended to let Mr. Tang remember it as a token of appreciation for a while.

Then she would come down and walk by herself.

But in the end, she was so engrossed in conversation with Mr. Tang that she walked all the way to the parking lot.

Liuli got off Mr. Tang’s back and said guiltily, “Brother Moxi must be tired. I was so focused on talking that I forgot to get down.”

“I won’t get tired. How could I tire carrying my wife!” Tang Moxi lowered his head and smiled at her.

Are you making fun of me, Uncle?

The two of them got into the car and returned to the Tang family’s house.

Liuli went to take a shower first. After changing her clothes, she went to the main room for breakfast.

Everything was prepared for their departure.

Liuli said to Grandpa Tang, “Grandpa, I’ll cook red-braised pork for you in the afternoon!”

“Alright! Have a good time at home!”

“Okay, Grandpa!” Liuli replied with a sweet smile. Then she walked out of the main house with Tang Moxi, got into the car, and headed back to her parents’.

This was the first time Liuli had returned to her own home after getting married.

“Don’t say that casually in the future!” Tang Moxi cleared his throat and admonished.

“What?”

“Hubby, you’re the best!”

“Oh, 1 was praising you!” Liuli blushed and explained.

“You can praise me in different situations from now on!”

“Huh?” Liuli looked at Tang Moxi in confusion.

“That’s all. Go to sleep now!”

Is the translation okay?”

“I can barely give you a 60 out of 100. Keep working hard tomorrow!”

“Oh, Brother Moxi, aren’t you going to sleep?” Liuli blinked and asked.

“You go ahead and sleep. I’ll join you later!”

“Well, don’t stay up too late, Brother Moxi! Good night!” After saying that, Liuli shut down her computer, set aside her notebook, and left the study.

Liuli entered the bathroom, brushed her teeth, washed her face, changed into her pajamas, and climbed into bed to sleep.

She was truly exhausted today.

It had been an overwhelming day, both physically and mentally!

Moreover, after making so many revisions, Mr. Tang still mentioned that he could only give her a 60 out of 100.

Based on this evaluation, she could only imagine how poor her performance in the final exam would be.

However, by this standard, no one would achieve outstanding results.

Nevertheless, Liuli still felt a sense of accomplishment.

Despite spending numerous days translating emails, Liuli had truly gained valuable knowledge.

For instance, she learned the importance of considering the main purpose and content of the text during the translation process.

Additionally, each word could hold a different meaning depending on the specific context.

Thus, translation was far from a simple word-for-word task; it required calculation and comprehension.

Liuli fell asleep shortly afterward.

When Tang Moxi returned to the bedroom,

Liuli was already fast asleep.

After taking a shower, he settled down beside her.

Almost instinctively, Liuli turned around and nestled into Tang Moxi’s arms.

She even murmured a few words.

Previously, she had always maintained that despite being married, their relationship differed from that of ordinary couples.

Sharing a bed seemed inappropriate!

Yet, in this moment, she clung to him like an octopus.

Tang Moxi let out a soft sigh, switched off the lights, and fell asleep with Liuli in his embrace.

As Liuli slumbered peacefully,

She heard someone calling her.

How bothersome.

Can’t I just sleep?

Liuli, don’t you plan on visiting your parents’ house today?”

A cheerful voice echoed in her ear.

Return home?

Her own home!

Liuli instantly opened her eyes, only to find herself staring at her own rising and falling chest.

Then, she saw Mr. Tang’s smiling face.

“Hehe, Brother Moxi, good morning!”

“Morning! I thought it would take another half an hour to wake you up!”

“Hehe, as if! I’m not one to linger in bed!” Liuli replied with a dry chuckle.

In the next moment, she felt a twinge of guilt.

If she claimed not to linger in bed, then no one in the world truly did.

“Are you getting up?”

“Yes!” Liuli answered.

It was only then that she realized she was in Air. Tang’s embrace, with him lying beside her.

Liuli gasped and instinctively tried to push Mr. Tang away.

However, she discovered that not only was she holding onto his waist, but her legs were also draped over his thighs.

No wonder she had slept so soundly throughout the night and felt reluctant to rise in the morning!

She had unwittingly turned Mr. Tang into a pillow!

“Hehe, um… I’m sorry, Brother Moxi. This morning’s situation was just an accident!” Liuli apologized awkwardly.

“I understand. This isn’t how you usually sleep!”

“Of course!” Liuli responded promptly.

But then, her spirits dampened once more, and she mumbled an explanation.

“I’ve been using you as a pillow!”

“You’re welcome to use me. Do you want to brush your teeth and wash your face first? Or should I go ahead? Or shall we do it together?”

No, I’ll go first!” Liuli quickly released ATr. Tang and hurried out of bed.

She heard Mr. Tang’s laughter trailing behind her.

Liuli’s expression darkened.

What’s so amusing about it?

Hmph!

After freshening up in the bathroom and choosing an outfit from the wardrobe, she coincidentally ran into Mr. Tang again.

However, Mr. Tang was already dressed in his attire.

Liuli was about to slip into a dress when she heard Tang Moxi say,

“We’ll go for a run later. Change into your workout clothes!”

“Huh? Aren’t we heading back to my parents’ house?” Liuli was taken aback and looked at Mr. Tang with a pitiful gaze.

“We’ll return after our run and have breakfast. Then we’ll leave from here!”

Oh!” Liuli replied, feeling a wave of frustration.

She resigned herself to her fate and opted for sportswear.

Meanwhile, Mr. Tang had already entered the bathroom to freshen up.

Liuli muttered to herself as she changed her attire.

“We still have to go for a run. How are we going to make it in time!”

“What time is it now?”

“Boohoo, we’re about to return home, but he still doesn’t want to leave me alone?!”

Liuli changed her clothes and walked out of the changing room.

When she took out her cell phone, she noticed that it was not even seven o’clock yet!

“Brother Moxi, it’s not even seven o’clock yet!” Liuli exclaimed towards the bathroom.

“Aren’t you early too?” Liuli smiled. “My mother woke me up. She said that I have to get up early on the first and second day of the Lunar New Year.”

“By the way, did you know that we’re having a class reunion?”

“Class reunion?” Liuli was confused.

“Yes, there’s a notice in the group. Don’t you know?”

“I haven’t checked it!” She had been busy with her recent marriage, so she hadn’t had time to engage in conversations!

“It’s happening at 3 p.m. today at Sichuan Restaurant!”

“Today?” Liuli sighed.

“Yes, you should come!”

“I’m not sure yet. 1 might not have time today!” How could I possibly find time today!

“If you don’t go, I won’t go either.”

“Don’t worry, I might not be able to make a decision until the afternoon!”

“Alright then, just let me know in advance!”

“Okay, I will!” Liuli replied.

After ending the call, she turned to Mr. Tang and said, “Uncle, our high school classmates are having a gathering this afternoon!”

“Oh!” Tang Moxi replied as he drove.

“Oh, what do you mean? You know the latest rule. When a husband and wife chat, they only reply with one word. It’s considered violent!” Liuli said playfully.

She had seen it on Weibo before, but she didn’t expect it to be relevant today!

It seemed that staying informed and acquiring knowledge from various sources was important in case of unexpected situations.

“Are you the one who wants to go?” Tang Moxi turned to glance at her and asked.

“I want to go, but 1 don’t know if I’ll have time. We’ll go back to our parents’ house in the morning, after lunch. Do you have any plans for the afternoon?” “You have to translate the emails in the afternoon!” Tang Moxi replied directly.

“Can we move that to night?” Liuli begged.

She almost forgot that she still had a mission to complete!

“You really want to go!”

“Yeah, our classmates haven’t seen each other for a semester!”

“What time does it start? What time does it end? Where is the gathering?”

“It starts at three o’clock. I don’t know what time it ends, but I can leave early and eat Sichuan food together!”

“I’ll send you there at three. I’ll pick you up at five!”

“All?” Was there a need to go? The stool was not even hot!

“Aren’t you going to have dinner with Grandpa tonight?” Tang Moxi asked.

“Oh, okay!” Liuli replied.

Yes, she was different from before.

She could not stay out too late, not to mention that it was the first day of the New Year!

She had to eat with her family!

She did not know who chose this time. It was really annoying.

She did not even consider the actual situation of her married person.

The next second, Liuli dropped the thought in her mind.

If everyone knew that she was already married, it would be a big problem!

At the base of the mountain, he stepped out of the car.

After completing the warm-up exercises, he started running.

This time, Liuli ran with great determination and focus.

Perhaps it was because she had accepted her fate. Regardless, she had to run, and there was no room for choice.

Tang Moxi jogged alongside her at a leisurely pace.

Occasionally, he glanced at her.

He contemplated this young girl. Though she could be carefree and lazy at times, she displayed remarkable focus and resilience when she was serious.

They simply lacked proper guidance!

“Liuli, it’s about time,” Tang Moxi called out to her.

“Brother Moxi, if I run back, can I propose a condition?” Liuli gasped for breath.

“What condition do you have in mind?” This girl was getting better at negotiating with him.

“Let’s discuss it once I’m finished running!”

“Then we’ll talk about it later. Today, you’ve covered nearly 1,500 meters. You’re improving.” Tang Moxi stopped Liuli and walked at a slower pace.

“Sigh, why can’t you dangle a carrot in front of me and entice me to run the whole way?” Liuli still panted.

“You’re not a rabbit!”

“I’m just using it as an analogy!”

“If I were to use something to tempt you…”

“Maybe 1 would be filled with energy and confidence, enabling me to run the entire distance!” Liuli expressed her confidence.

“Running requires gradual progress. It’s not good for you to be too impatient!” Tang Moxi advised calmly.

Liuli walked in front of Tang Moxi and smiled at him.

“What happened?”

“Brother Moxi, you sounded like my father when you were being reasonable just now!” Liuli replied with a smile.

Tang Moxi looked at her, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

“Haha, I’m just joking with you. You’re younger and more handsome than my father!”

“Isn’t that obvious? I’m your father’s son-in-law! Of course, I’m younger than your father-in-law,” Tang Moxi replied helplessly.

“A son-in-law is not necessarily younger than his father-in-law. For example…”

“Alright, I understand,” Tang Moxi could only reply.

Liuli smiled smugly.

After running, she went home to shower, change her clothes, and prepare to make breakfast.

When they arrived at the main house, they realized that Tang Yunxi and Tang Yanxi were already prepared.

Grandpa was sitting at the kitchen door, chatting with them!

“Did you guys fall asleep first yesterday?” Liuli asked in confusion.

“Of course it was you!” Tang Yunxi and Tang Yanxi replied with a smile at the same time.

“Isn’t that the person who fell asleep first to prepare breakfast?” Liuli was still at a loss..
