In This Life, I Will Extremely Pamper My Short-Lived Husband-Chapter 205: Complete Submission to Her
Chapter 205: Chapter 205: Complete Submission to Her
After the boy finished speaking, he didn’t even dare to glance at Xie Yanchuan and quickly walked away with his head down.
Xu Jinzhi, after the boy left, looked at Xie Yanchuan with a playful smile, "Are you going to be at the scene the whole time?"
Xie Yanchuan shook his head, "No need."
Having said that, Xie Yanchuan looked at Xu Jinzhi and couldn’t help feeling embarrassed, as if it were something shameful, causing even the tips of his ears to turn red.
"So Professor Xie should be free this afternoon, right?" Xu Jinzhi asked, tilting her head slightly and looking playfully at Xie Yanchuan.
Xie Yanchuan shook his head again.
"Then, do you still need to go to the lab?" Xu Jinzhi continued.
The intention was so obvious that Xie Yanchuan obviously understood what Xu Jinzhi meant. Anyway, there hadn’t been much progress in the recent experiments, so it wouldn’t make much difference if he didn’t go.
Therefore, Xie Yanchuan shook his head and directly said he wouldn’t go.
The smile on Xu Jinzhi’s face grew even wider, "Then let’s go on a date this afternoon!"
Since they got Tuantuan, the two of them had less time alone together, but both Xie Yanchuan and Xu Jinzhi were trying to strike a balance. They would still leave Tuantuan behind to go on dates.
Just like today, Xu Jinzhi happened to have time, and Xie Yanchuan could also get away. They briefly discussed it and decided what to do next.
"I need to go back to the dorm and take a shower first," Xie Yanchuan said.
After playing basketball and sweating profusely, there was no way he could just go out like that.
"Okay."
After discussing, they headed directly towards Xie Yanchuan’s dorm. On the way, Xie Yanchuan couldn’t help asking Xu Jinzhi, "How did you know there was a basketball game today?"
Because he knew their game wouldn’t look good, or even quite embarrassing, Xie Yanchuan hadn’t mentioned it to Xu Jinzhi.
"How do you think I knew?" Xu Jinzhi didn’t answer the question but just looked at Xie Yanchuan with a smirking smile.
Xie Yanchuan thought for a moment but couldn’t figure out how Xu Jinzhi knew. Moreover, how Xu Jinzhi found out wasn’t what mattered, but rather that he had shown such an embarrassing side of himself to Xu Jinzhi.
Seeing Xie Yanchuan’s embarrassed expression, Xu Jinzhi directly latched onto his arm, "I’ve never seen you play basketball before, so I wanted to come and see when I heard about it."
"Don’t worry, in my eyes, you’re the best."
Xie Yanchuan couldn’t help but lift the corners of his mouth, feeling a bit ashamed yet also secretly pleased, "Playing like that and still considered the best? Your filter is really quite thick."
"What does it matter how good someone else is? I only had eyes for you, so of course, you are the best to me," Xu Jinzhi answered with conviction.
Xie Yanchuan felt like his heart had been struck, and as the sensation spread, he felt a tingle all over. He glanced sideways at Xu Jinzhi, unable to articulate exactly how he was feeling.
Anyway, Xu Jinzhi was just that way, always finding a way to render him defenseless, completely surrendering to her.
However, Xu Jinzhi wasn’t paying attention to Xie Yanchuan’s expression. She held onto his arm like any ordinary couple, walking and speaking, "At this time, we can go watch a movie first."
Although there might not be any good movies, but that’s what a couple’s date is about, right? "Wasting time" together?
"After the movie, let’s go to the restaurant Youyou sent me before; I remember it’s open-air with an ocean view, and we can watch the sunset."
"Okay," Xie Yanchuan agreed softly. As long as he was with Xu Jinzhi, it didn’t matter what they did; he was willing.
Xu Jinzhi looked back at Xie Yanchuan, trying to hold back a smile, she asked, "Why didn’t you think of bringing Tuantuan along with us today?"
On one of their previous dates, Tuantuan had called Xie Yanchuan, and his cooing voice made Xie Yanchuan want to go back and take Tuantuan with them.
Xie Yanchuan didn’t speak. He indeed had that idea, but he had not taken any real action.
He was fond of Tuantuan, but wasn’t the initial reason because he was his and Xu Jinzhi’s child?
He would do everything he could to love Tuantuan, but compared to Xu Jinzhi, Xu Jinzhi was still more important; she was the first in his life.
When they got back to Xie Yanchuan’s dormitory, Xie Yanchuan went to shower, and Xu Jinzhi waited outside. Shortly after, Xu Jinzhi received a message from Song You.
It was from the university’s forum. Clicking into it, she found a photo of Xu Jinzhi linking arms with Xie Yanchuan as they returned to the staff dormitory.
The poster’s photo was just a back view, but some enthusiastic alumni had posted their front view, side view, and even photos of the tops of their heads.
Xu Jinzhi found it somewhat amusing; they hadn’t realized at all that they had been photographed.
Xu Jinzhi replied to Song You with a message, "Nicely taken."
After all, it wasn’t a photo that was embarrassing for them; if they wanted to take it let them.
It wasn’t long before Xie Yanchuan came out of the bathroom, and Xu Jinzhi stopped looking at her phone.
The afternoon’s plan went just as Xu Jinzhi had arranged: they started by watching a movie, a comedy that was silly but indeed funny.
After the movie ended, the two went to the trendy restaurant.
Sunset by the sea, the atmosphere was truly romantic. Xu Jinzhi had been about to order a bottle of red wine, the words almost on her lips, when she remembered something else.
When the waiter left, Xie Yanchuan said, "It’s okay if you want to drink, we can call for a designated driver later."
Xu Jinzhi shook her head, "No worries, we’ll take a stroll ourselves later."
Xie Yanchuan said nothing more.

In the blink of an eye, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival.
That day at noon, Xu Jinzhi and Xie Yanchuan brought Tuantuan back to the Xu Family and had lunch with Xu Zhen.
The Xie Family had invited Xu Zhen to join them at the Xie family manor for the festival that evening, but Xu Zhen declined.
Xu Jinzhi didn’t insist on anything, because she really understood her own nature.
After lunch, the family of three went back to their bedroom for a nap, and when they woke up it was about time to head over to the Xie Family.
By the time they were packed and ready to leave, Xu Zhen had already gone out to fish with old friends, so the family of three left like that.
When they arrived at the Xie Family’s place, it was neither too early nor too late.
But today there were quite a few more people at the Xie Family’s home; the Xie Family’s branches had also come over, and Xu Jinzhi and her family became the focus as soon as they entered the villa.
Xie Yihang, upon seeing Tuantuan, joyously shouted, "Brother Tuantuan!"
Soon the kids had run over, and Tuantuan called out in his milky voice, "Brother."
Then Xie Yihang pulled Tuantuan to play, and Tuantuan turned his head back and nodded, agreeing to go with Xie Yihang.
