Aromatic Flesh

The door was pushed open, and upon hearing it, Gu MingYue, who was in an apron with a spatula still in her hand, leaned out from the kitchen entrance and called out, “Old Song¹ is back~” She smiled gently at the man who was still taking off his shoes near the door.

The bachelor – Song ZhenYi, smiled helplessly at being called old, but he was 11 years older than her, and this nickname was somewhat appropriate.

“Well, hurry up and wash your hands, dinner is almost ready~”

“Alright, what are we having for tonight?” The man dropped his work case on the sofa and walked towards the kitchen casually, before leaning against the kitchen door and watching the busy lady scuffling around with a smile.

“Shredded potatoes with vinegar, hot and sour cabbage, sweet and sour fish, and tofu soup!” Gu MingYue lined the dishes beautifully on their respective plates and pots as she replied to his question.

“Sour dishes again?” Song ZhenYi couldn’t help but chuckle at her words, he was beginning to miss the flavor of other dishes.

“Yup, only sour dishes~ Now, go wash your hands and help me with serving the dishes.” Gu MingYue cheekily ignored the man’s complaints and instead, instructed the man to help with the work.

Honestly, what’s there to complain about when he can come home every day to ready-to-eat food?

“Yes, my lady.” The man walked towards the bathroom obediently to wash his hands, before returning to the kitchen to assist with bringing the dishes out to the dining table, even taking the time to serve the seated young lady a bowl of warm soup.

Gu MingYue had developed a habit of drinking soup to nourish her stomach before having her meal. Smiling sweetly at him in thanks, she picked out a piece of the most tender part of the fish with her chopsticks and placed it in Song ZhenYi’s bowl.

Their interactions have been warm and happy ever since the two moved in together.

It all goes back to the first day Gu MingYue had run away from home.

“Please come in.” The handsome and elegant man opened the door of his bachelor’s apartment, switching on the lights along the hallway before turning sideways to let the girl behind him enter.

This was an apartment consisting of two bedrooms, two bathrooms, one living, and one kitchen. The apartment was decorated mainly in two colors – blue and white, which gave the place a simple and casual vibe. The furniture placed in the room was also simple and modern-looking, mostly made of wood and soft-colored linen, giving a clean and comfortable homely feeling.

Though this was a bachelor’s apartment, based on Gu MingYue’s visual observation, she realized that the living room area was at least sixty square meters.

It seems that she had accidentally hugged a very thick pair of thighs².

In fact, judging from the car that she just took a ride in, Gu MingYue vaguely guessed that this kind and helpful Doctor Song might be someone with a very strong background. Otherwise, there was no way he would’ve been able to afford such an expensive sports car and a luxurious apartment at this age with the salary of a doctor.

Well, and the fact that there was a strange sense of incongruity between his limited edition sports car and the polite man’s leisurely attitude.

“Actually, you don’t have to do this.” Gu MingYue looked around the apartment, noticing that every single room was brightly lit by the sunlight. However, even though she was more than satisfied with this new living environment, it did not seem nice for her to take advantage of his kindness, “I’m just a stranger to you, this isn’t good…”

In fact, Gu MingYue could not deny that she had been shocked when Song ZhenYi proposed to let her live in his home.

Was this man a magical creature that feels uncomfortable if he does not do a good deed each day? Gu MingYue wondered silently.

Imagine inviting a pregnant underage lady, whom he had only met twice, to live in his own house!

Though he had not given her a reason to, Gu MingYue could not help but suspect his intentions.

“Ah.” Song ZhenYi was also afraid that the young lady would regard him as a perverted man with a shady mind who likes underage girls, so he quickly explained his action as his ears flushed scarlet red, “I suppose you don’t have anywhere to go at the moment, so why don’t you stay at my house in the meantime? At least, until you find your own place to move into… Don’t worry, I…” It was difficult for him to say it in words, but fortunately, the lady seemed to understand his unspoken words and nodded at him.

“Why are you helping me like this, do you usually bring strangers home?” Gu MingYue thought it would be better to ask and clear her doubts clearly.

Honestly, even if she could not feel any ill intentions from this handsome young man, she still thought him to be too warm and helpful, and it was generally unusual for a person to be like this.

“Please don’t get me wrong, I’m definitely not the kind of person who simply brings anyone home.” Song ZhenYi breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he also did not want her to see him as an infinitely good guy, “It’s just that it’s really dangerous for a young lady like you to stay outside alone. I respect your wishes in not informing your family and insistence on giving birth to the baby alone, but I, too, have my own beliefs. And since I have come across this incident, I believe it is my responsibility to make sure of your safety.”

As a doctor who saves lives and heals the wounded, Song ZhenYi was truly a kind-hearted doctor. He had a warm and lustrous appearance, paired with a gentle and soft heart. He belonged to the kind of humans who would bring home injured animals on the roadside just to treat their wounds.

Being such a person, how could he ignore Gu MingYue, who had run away from home and was pregnant with a child!
