Stealing Your Heart

It was an intimate topic the couple was going to cover. Shen Peichuan kept a straight face as he tightened his grip on Sang Yu’s little hand. “Let’s wait until you graduate.”

Sang Yu pecked him on his cheek. “By the time I graduate, how old will you be? Also, I might not be able to conceive a child right away. What if we have to try for a few years before we get a child? Then, wouldn’t you be too old to be a new father?”

Shen Peichuan slanted his eyes at his wife. “Don’t be ridiculous. No one can ever be too old to be a new father unless you are an octogenarian or something. There’s nothing to worry about. I am not even forty yet.”

Sang Yu chuckled and pinched Shen Peichuan’s chin. “Didn’t know you cared so much about your age.”

Shen Peichuan waved Sang Yu off. “I am still driving.”

Sang Yu obediently went back to her seat.

Shen Peichuan added, “I don’t care about age too much. It’s just because you’re young, and I don’t wish to age too quickly.”

Sang Yu found Shen Peichuan’s words quite amusing and adorable.

“It’s not like you are old.” You’re just more of a man than a boy.

Sang Yu figured that Shen Peichuan’s maturity had made him appear older than he actually was.

Sang Yu sat quietly in her seat. Not before long, they were already in their neighborhood. Shen Peichuan parked his car in the basement and the two of them took the lift to the level they were staying on.

Once the two got into their house, Sang Yu took the bento boxes to the kitchen. There was still a bowl of soup leftover. Sang Yu asked, “There’s still some soup here. You want to finish it? It’s going to be a waste if you don’t.”

Shen Peichuan strolled to his wife. “You don’t want to drink it?”

Yu shook her head resolutely. “It’s too late.
