Chapter 22: Success
“Kiss… kiss you, I… can’t… it’s too fast…”
“Not fast, we’ve already married, Mengyao, you don’t have to be too shy; anyway, this day will come sooner or later.”
Compared to Gu Mengyao, who was blushing and stuttering, Gu Yu remained very calm.
In fact, he even felt a bit eager to try.
Originally, Gu Yu only saw this kiss as a way to subdue Gu Mengyao, so he didn’t have any romantic thoughts in his mind.
However, seeing the stubborn girl who had just been fierce transform into such a shy appearance made Gu Yu feel quite accomplished.
He just feared that Gu Mengyao might directly kiss him without changing her expression, and then he would worry… whether Gu Mengyao didn’t really have feelings for him, which is why she was so proactive.
It must be said that whether to kiss or not had Gu Yu tangled for quite some time.
In the end, Gu Mengyao still shyly pecked Gu Yu’s cheek, and the soft touch of her lips made Gu Yu feel quite nice about having a wife.
However, she was still too young, as flat as a washboard, and needed to grow up some more.
“I’ll let this go this time, but if you do it like this next time, it will be a kiss here.”
Although Gu Yu was no longer angry at this moment, he didn’t dare let it show directly, thinking that if Gu Mengyao had no sense of crisis, things would only get worse.
However, while speaking, he tapped his lips with his fingertips, which caused Gu Mengyao’s already red cheeks to blush even more.
Seeing Gu Mengyao look like a cooked shrimp, Gu Yu felt quite satisfied, and his previously tired body felt much better.
Thus, he decided to sell the wild boar in town now to avoid any lengthy delays.
That Hunter Wu didn’t seem to be a good person just by name, and it would be awkward if this wild boar became a nuisance to his family.
Anyway, Gu Yu didn’t plan on letting Gu Mengyao go up the mountain to hunt in the future, so it didn’t matter if he fell out with Hunter Wu.
In fact, Gu Yu secretly wished to get into a fight with Hunter Wu as soon as possible; it would be even better if Gu Mengyao couldn’t keep hunting.
“You rest first; I’ll borrow an ox cart in the village. Once the wild boar is sold, I’ll come back.”
“It’s so late; let’s wait until tomorrow.”
“It’s fine; there’s still time. The town is lively at night, and we can get a better price. You and Qingheng stay at home and enjoy some buns tonight.”
As Gu Yu spoke, he put down the basket he had forgotten to take off his back, pretending to take out a meat bun wrapped in oil paper and set it beside Gu Mengyao.
As soon as he took out the meat bun, a delicious aroma spread.
Watching Gu Mengyao swallow her saliva like a little greedy cat, a smile appeared in Gu Yu’s eyes. He then took one of the buns and offered it to her.
Gu Mengyao looked up at Gu Yu, and without refusing, she slowly opened her mouth and took a bite.
Perhaps because they had just kissed, Gu Mengyao felt even closer to Gu Yu.
So, despite her shyness, Gu Mengyao showed no signs of resistance, which made Gu Yu feel extremely satisfied.
After feeding a whole bun to Gu Mengyao, Gu Yu decided not to linger in the house with his wife any longer but instead rushed to find someone in the village with an ox cart, directly paying twenty copper coins as the rental fee, bringing both the person and the cart back home.
Gu Yu didn’t know how to drive a cart, and even if he borrowed an ox cart, he couldn’t guide it to town, so it was better to pay more and have the cart owner accompany him for extra support.
Gu Yu didn’t believe that as just a little kid driving an ox cart loaded with a wild boar, he wouldn’t attract the attention of those with ill intentions.
Robbery on the road wasn’t uncommon, and Gu Yu was just a child; even if he lost the wild boar, no one would care to report it.
Since he couldn’t put the wild boar in his space now, it was better to be cautious.
