Chapter 164: Chapter 164: Zhou Shuyan: I Always Feel That You Don’t Understand

She raised her right foot and could only step over Zhou Shuyan.

Lu Youxi didn’t dare to breathe too heavily, making sure Zhou Shuyan was still asleep, then hurriedly stepped over him.

Just as Youxi’s right foot touched the ground and she was lifting her left foot, someone suddenly swept her right ankle.

It was apparent who had done it.

There was no one else in the room except her and Zhou Shuyan.

However, Lu Youxi hadn’t expected such a thing to happen, and caught off guard, she yelled "Ah," following which, she fell forward, face-first toward the wardrobe, it looked like her face was going to smash hard against it, but someone suddenly pulled her back.

Lu Youxi then started to fall backward.

But there was no anticipated pain, no heavy impact, and no huge crashing sound.

Her back landed in front of Zhou Shuyan, with him cushioning her fall.

"What are you doing?" Lu Youxi exclaimed, her heartbeat still racing.

She was now resting her head on Zhou Shuyan’s chest.

As she slightly turned her head, she noticed Zhou Shuyan’s slightly stubbly chin.

His hand was still on her lower abdomen, and neither of them seemed aware of this intimacy.

Youxi was too startled by the sudden accident to think of anything else.

Zhou Shuyan hadn’t even realized where his hand was.

He rubbed the corners of his eyes, still not completely awake, his voice hoarse and sleepy, he explained apologetically, "Sorry, I forgot where I was. I just felt someone beside me and thought they were here to harm me."

Lu Youxi, recalling how she found Zhou Shuyan, didn’t even know what kind of perilous environment he lived in, or maybe it wasn’t actually perilous.

"It’s okay," Lu Youxi surely couldn’t blame him for something so small.

"How are you? Any injuries?" Zhou Shuyan asked.

"Nope," Youxi responded, then realized she was still lying in his arms.

In all the romantic dramas, it’s face-to-face in someone’s embrace.

Yet here she was, lying on her back in Zhou Shuyan’s arms, quite an odd posture.

While thinking this, Lu Youxi suddenly felt a pressure on her abdomen and looked down to see Zhou Shuyan’s hand pressing here and there on her belly.

Lu Youxi slapped his hand, "What are you touching?"

Zhou Shuyan awkwardly explained, "I’m just making sure you’re not hurt."

"I’m fine." Lu Youxi quickly rolled out of his arms.

The scene was quite awkward.

Zhou Shuyan also sat up.

As Lu Youxi reached into her bag for some clothes, she asked him, "Is your life normally this dangerous?"

Zhou Shuyan paused, then explained, realizing she was referring to before, "No, my living environment is normal, not dangerous, don’t be afraid."

Lu Youxi thought to herself that she wasn’t scared.

It’s strange, thinking Zhou Shuyan lives in danger, she walked close to him, and she could easily find herself in danger too.

If it were before, she would have stayed far away from him, never allowing danger near her.

But now, she didn’t seem worried at all, nor did she want to avoid Zhou Shuyan.

"I’ve just become overly cautious because of an accident that happened last time," Zhou Shuyan explained.

"I understand, it’s left a psychological shadow," Lu Youxi nodded, understanding.

Zhou Shuyan: "..."

How was he supposed to explain this?

From what Lu Youxi said, it seemed like he was timid.

"It’s not a psychological shadow, just more vigilant," Zhou Shuyan tried to clarify.

Not sure if Lu Youxi really got what he meant, she nodded and said, "I understand."

Zhou Shuyan: "..."

I feel like you don’t understand.

But Lu Youxi didn’t give Zhou Shuyan any more chance to explain; she left with her clothes for the bathroom to change and freshen up before coming back out.

Lu Youxi left the bedroom first, Zhou Shuyan also got up, changed his clothes, and went to the bathroom to freshen up.

However, just as Lu Youxi stepped out, she ran into Liu Yushu with a complex expression.

"Although you guys are young, try not to overdo it," Liu Yushu whispered to Lu Youxi, "Health is the capital of revolution."

Thinking about the loud noise they made first thing in the morning, what must it have been like usually?

But Liu Yushu could understand.

They were married but didn’t live together.

Lu Youxi was in boarding school, probably only meeting on weekends.

It’s rare for them to be together, so them being intense was understandable.

She was just worried they might go too abruptly and Lu Youxi might hurt herself.

Lu Youxi understood Liu Yushu’s concern and, blushing, quickly explained, "Mom, you misunderstood. I just fell over."

"Fell over?" Liu Yushu was skeptical, wondering how one could easily fall during daylight.

"I’m staying here for the first time; I’ve never stayed before, so I’m not very familiar with the room," Lu Youxi clarified, "so I tripped."

That made sense.

Liu Yushu nodded believing her, "I see."

Feeling a little embarrassed by the whole situation, Liu Yushu said, "I’ll go make breakfast," then swiftly left.

Right after Liu Yushu left, Zhou Shuyan came out from the room.

Seeing him, Lu Youxi gave him a stern look.

Zhou Shuyan, taken aback by her look, felt wronged and confused, making him quite irresistible to look at this morning, and uncomprehendingly, he raised an eyebrow, "What’s the matter?"

"It’s because of you," Lu Youxi murmured blushing, "You suddenly tripped me, and my mom heard me scream." She hurriedly explained, "She thought... she thought that we were..."

"Thought we were what?" Zhou Shuyan, not catching on at first.

"Thought we were doing that thing so early in the morning!" Lu Youxi said swiftly.

What thing?

Zhou Shuyan, confused for a moment, then suddenly realized.

"Cough!" Zhou Shuyan cleared his throat awkwardly, "An accident, it was just an accident, it definitely won’t happen again."

Knowing it was a misunderstanding, facing Lu Youxi and Zhou Shuyan became much easier for Liu Yushu, and she even discreetly explained to Lu Zhenguo.

Lu Zhenguo also felt more relaxed.

He had heard the noise with Liu Yushu earlier, but as a father, he couldn’t bring himself to discuss this matter with his daughter, leaving it to Liu Yushu.

Turns out, they had misunderstood.

Lu Youxue also heard it, but being young, he didn’t understand.

There was no need for Lu Youxi to explain; he just thought she had bumped into something.

After the family finished breakfast, Lu Youxi and Zhou Shuyan took Lu Zhenguo and two others for a walk around the Imperial Capital.
