Chapter 185 Did You Forget Something?

**Chapter 185: Did You Forget Something?**

"At the moment, there really isn’t much for you to do, but later—" Su He paused mid-sentence.

"What about later?" Chen Sufen quickly asked.

Now that they had received the money and gotten a taste of the rewards, the daughters-in-law were eager to help Su He solve any problems.

"If the durians sell well, I’m afraid someone might try to steal them from the orchard. So when that time comes, you’ll need to keep an eye out. But for now, there’s no need to worry," Su He explained.

Before, the Fu family had been skeptical about stories of people stealing durians. But now that they had earned five hundred yuan all at once, even they—never mind others—would be tempted to steal and sell them if they heard about such profits.

"I understand. We’ll be careful when that time comes," Fu Dajun said in agreement.

After breakfast, the family chatted and laughed, clearly in high spirits.

How could they not be? Everyone was making money.

Su He hadn’t favored anyone—each received the same amount.

When it was time, Fu Tinghua gathered Su He, Zai Zai, and Niu Niu to return to their own little home.

Back in the familiar mud house, Su He was struck by how fast time had flown.

Half a year had already gone by since she crossed over into this world.

So much had happened in those six months.

She had gone from being a confused outsider to someone who had grown more comfortable in this world.

"I’ll go fix up the bed. You stay outside and rest with Zai Zai and Niu Niu."

Noticing Su He spacing out, Fu Tinghua reached out and gently mussed her hair, his voice gentle.

"Mm, then I’ll sit for a while. You handle the rest, okay?" Su He said playfully.

She had once been a strong, independent woman, both in life and career.

In the past, she could never have imagined herself acting cute or flirtatious with a man.

But now—

Well, it didn’t feel so bad. It was nice having someone to be playful with.

"Mom, Ya Ya said she wants you to braid her hair," Niu Niu said to Su He after Fu Tinghua went into the room.

"Sure, after our nap this afternoon, I’ll do both of your hair," Su He replied, patting her daughter’s head with a smile.

"Yay! I want mine done too!" After all, she was Mom’s favorite little princess.

"Of course. Our Niu Niu’s a princess—I’ll give you a princess 'do this afternoon."

"What kind of princess 'do?" Niu Niu asked curiously.

"Like Snow White’s."

"I'll be Snow White then!"

Zai Zai quietly watched them without saying anything.

Wanting to include her son, Su He pulled him closer and asked, "Zai Zai, are you happy to be back?"

Zai Zai hesitated for a moment before replying, "As long as I'm with Mom, I'm happy."

Goodness, her son really knew how to talk sweetly.

Unable to resist, Su He gave him a kiss on the cheek and said, "So sweet!"

Niu Niu protested and demanded a kiss too.

Fu Tinghua, who had just finished making the bed and walked into the living room, witnessed this scene: ......

During their nap, Fu Tinghua pulled Su He close and asked, "Did you forget something?"

Su He: ?

"Think again?" Fu Tinghua raised an eyebrow.

"I can't think of anything," Su He replied in exasperation.

"You kissed Zai Zai and Niu Niu already. Now it's my turn," Dr. Fu said, his hands starting to wander.

He couldn’t help himself—he was overcome with emotion.

Su He's face turned red. She quickly stopped Fu Tinghua’s wandering hands and hurriedly said, "Fine, I’ll kiss you, okay?"

"Hmm?" Fu Tinghua looked at her with amusement in his eyes.

With no other choice, Su He gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.

Satisfied with the kiss, Fu Tinghua leaned in and whispered in her ear, "Thanks, babe," and then finally settled down.

At last, she could enjoy a peaceful nap—finally some peace!

In the afternoon, before Su He woke up completely, she could already hear the children's noisy chatter.

Just as she was about to get up, Fu Tinghua walked into the room—she didn’t know when he’d woken up.

"Did they wake you?" he asked, walking toward the bed.

"Yeah, but I should be getting up anyway. Why didn’t you wake me?"

Still sleepy, Su He’s voice came out soft and sweet, sounding almost like a pout.

Fu Tinghua's gaze darkened slightly as he looked at her, though Su He didn’t notice.

"I wanted to let you sleep a little longer," Fu Tinghua said, sitting on the bed and running his fingers through her hair.

"But if I nap too long in the afternoon, I won’t be able to fall asleep tonight," Su He grumbled, giving him a look.

"Don’t worry. I’ll put in more effort—you’ll be tired out enough to fall asleep," Fu Tinghua murmured, whispering in her ear.

Su He: ......

Ughhhh, why did Dr. Fu have to start teasing her as soon as she woke up right after naptime?

"You're so shameless—when did you become like this?" Su He asked, her face flushed.

Fu Tinghua feigned innocence. "What did I do?"

"Don’t pretend!" Su He couldn’t help but accuse him.

Seeing that she was flustered again, Fu Tinghua didn’t dare tease her further.

"Alright, my bad. Don’t be mad," he said, pulling her into his arms and soothing her with a gentle voice.

Honestly, Su He wondered where Fu Tinghua had learned to be so good at this romance thing.

Before, he used to be just as shy as she was—a few words would make him blush.

Look at now—she was the only one turning red while he kept flirting with her nonstop.

"Alright, I need to get up. I promised Niu Niu I’d do her and Ya Ya’s hair," Su He tried to push Fu Tinghua away, only to find herself unable to.

Su He: ?

She couldn’t help but look up at him, meeting his hungry, possessive gaze.

"Give me a kiss, and I’ll let you go," Fu Tinghua said with a smirk.

"You—how can you be like this?"

Before Su He could finish, Fu Tinghua wasted no time kissing her.

Su He: ......

When the kiss ended, Fu Tinghua stroked her lips, his expression unreadable. "If you won’t kiss me, then I’ll just have to kiss you instead."

"Couldn’t you have waited just a few seconds?" Su He couldn’t help but ask.

"Mmm, alright. Anything for my wife, okay?" Fu Tinghua chuckled softly, whispering by her ear.

Just then—

"Mommy’s not up yet, but she’ll braid our hair soon. She said she’ll do Snow White braids for us!" Niu Niu’s boasting voice jolted Su He back to reality.

"I need to get up now," she shot Fu Tinghua a glare and said.

"Fine. Need a hand getting up?" Fu Tinghua teased on purpose.

"Get out, or I’ll actually get mad."

This man—always like this, making her head spin.

But what could she do? She was just a sucker for a pretty face.
