Chapter 161: Gift

Chapter 161

After the annual party, Chi Yu took Song Luokui back with him. Chi Yu had drunk quite a bit that night, but he was still sober.

The two of them returned to ChunWang Manor with their gifts. Song Luokui snuggled into Chi Yu's embrace, "Didn't you say you had another gift for me tonight?"

Chi Yu: "Yes, I'll give it to you when we get back."

Song Luokui kept guessing, "What is it? Jewelry? A bracelet, a necklace? Or maybe cosmetics, a plush toy?"

Chi Yu looked at her, loosening his tie slightly, "Why don't you keep guessing?"

Song Luokui shook her head, "Never mind, I'll like whatever you give me."

Chi Yu lowered his head with a low chuckle, his voice deep and husky, "Really, you'll like anything?"

Song Luokui looked up, and her lips grazed his chin. Her face flushed, "Of course, I've liked all the gifts you've given me before." Who doesn't like receiving gifts?

Chi Yu nuzzled her neck, his breath brushing against her skin, "Hmm, I hope you'll like it..." His latter words were mumbled and unclear. Song Luokui couldn't quite make them out as she was watching the snow falling outside.

Back at Chi Yu's side of ChunWang Manor, Aunt had prepared a detox soup. Chi Yu took a sip without being told, then told Aunt she could leave and get some rest. He also had the driver take her home.

"Thank you, sir."

As soon as Song Luokui entered, she changed into slippers. She was now quite familiar with this place. Tonight, she was wearing 10cm high heels, and frankly, her feet were aching.

Chi Yu crouched in front of her and massaged her feet, "Do you want to soak your feet later?"

Song Luokui: "A bath would be better." And she could soak her feet too.

Chi Yu: "I'll draw you a bath."

"Okay."

After Chi Yu had prepared the bath, Song Luokui took her clothes into the bathroom, which was even scented with aromatherapy candles, clearly set up by Chi Yu.

Song Luokui undressed and sank into the bathtub, instantly relieving much of her evening fatigue.

Outside, Chi Yu went to another bathroom to shower. By the time he finished, Song Luokui would be soaking for at least another half hour.

She had already dried her hair inside. When she came out, she looked sleepy. As soon as she emerged, she saw Chi Yu sitting nearby, and he immediately looked over at her.

Song Luokui blinked, "Where's my gift?"

Chi Yu suddenly extended his hand to her, a ribbon tied around his wrist. Song Luokui was a little puzzled as she took his hand. "Huh?"

Chi Yu looked at her, "I am the gift. Do you want me?"

Song Luokui glanced at him, then at the ribbon on his wrist. With a snort of laughter, she noticed another ribbon around his neck, his chest exposed, his gaze burning as he watched her.

Song Luokui's heart skipped a beat as she swallowed, "Are you... trying to seduce me?" She had to admit, Chi Yu looked irresistible like this.

Chi Yu: "Yes." His voice lowered seductively, "Do you want me?"

Song Luokui slowly approached him, their eyes locked as if joined by an invisible thread. Chi Yu pulled her hand, suddenly tugging her into his embrace. Song Luokui steadied herself, straddling him. Chi Yu offered his hand, "Do you want to unwrap your gift?"

Song Luokui's gaze fell on the ribbon around his wrist. With one tug, the blue ribbon fell to the floor. Chi Yu then guided her hand to his neck. Song Luokui saw his Adam's apple bob.

Song Luokui stroked his Adam's apple, and Chi Yu let out a low groan. Song Luokui's face flushed, but instead of pulling the ribbon off his neck, she leaned in and pressed her lips against his throat...

She felt his hands grip her waist tightly. Smiling, she stopped teasing and bit down, pulling the ribbon off with her teeth.

Chi Yu immediately cupped her face and kissed her deeply... After a moment, he pulled a ring from his pocket and slid it onto Song Luokui's finger, their hands entwined.

When they parted, Song Luokui caught her breath, admiring the sparkling diamond on her finger.

She looked at Chi Yu, who wiped her lips, "Since you've accepted this gift, there's no returning it."

With that, he kissed her again. Song Luokui closed her eyes and succumbed to his embrace.

Outside, the snow fell heavier, while inside, warmth enveloped them...

A tall figure carried a smaller one to the bed, and they soon tumbled onto the sheets together...

After a night of heavy snowfall, the entire city of Jing was blanketed in white. Inside, Song Luokui thought she heard the sound of snow-laden branches cracking and falling. Her eyelids fluttered, and she squinted as she opened her eyes.

The room was warm. Soft light filtered in through the tightly drawn curtains. She felt Chi Yu's chin resting on her head, one arm wrapped around her waist as he slept, his breathing faint.

The ring on her finger proved last night's events were real. The pleasant ache in her body was further evidence of their passionate lovemaking.

She stirred slightly, and the arm around her tightened, pulling her closer. Chi Yu seemed to wake, nuzzling downwards until his breath tickled her shoulder blades, making her shiver...

Her hands were pinned above her head as she blinked dazedly, the light above appearing to sway...

When she awoke again, it was nearly noon. Chi Yu coaxed her to get up, "Are you hungry? I had Aunt make that soup you like."

Song Luokui murmured assent, letting him dote on her like an invalid.

After lunch, Song Luokui sat on the balcony, admiring the snowy landscape. Chi Yu joined her, hugging her from behind and kissing her cheek, "Do you want to go out and play, or stay in today?"

Still feeling a little tired, Song Luokui shook her head, "Stay in."

They snuggled together for a while until, half an hour later, Song Luokui dozed off again. Chi Yu carefully carried her back to the bedroom and tucked her in.

...

The festival atmosphere was getting stronger. The Shan Yu Group and Song Hua Group were already practically in vacation mode, and Chi Yu had returned to the manor. Regarding the matter of sending New Year's gifts, Chi Yong said, "Do you want me to go with you?"

Chi Yu replied, "No need. I may need to help out over there."

Chi Yong: ?

Chi Yu: "Maybe I'll help with cleaning."

Chi Yong: ...He wanted to say that there were maids at home, but considering he was going to the Song family, he decided against it. He would likely need to do more work and give a good impression.

On the morning of February 6th, Chi Yu set out from home with gifts. At the Song residence, Grandpa Song, Grandma Song, as well as the Maternal Grandfather and Paternal Grandmother were all there. They were all spending the New Year together this year.

Moreover, it was said that Kuikui's boyfriend, the son from the Chi family, would be coming to give New Year's greetings today, so everyone had woken up early.

However, they usually woke up early, except for Song Luokui. Today, since Chi Yu was coming, she was a bit nervous, so she woke up early too.

The family had just finished breakfast when Chi Yu arrived.
