Humans are inherently complex creatures; they are controlled by rationality, yet they cannot escape emotional thoughts.
Sometimes, emotional thinking can even influence their judgment more.
Many times, many problems arise from a moment of impulse.
People must pay for their impulses, and once they realize this, it actually means shouldering a layer of responsibility.
And now, Zhou Yi had added another layer to himself.
Before, he could handle such matters very well, but now he didn't know what to do.
Ultimately, he still hadn't controlled himself.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yi laughed mockingly.
He fumbled around the bedside table for a cigarette and lit one.
"Smoking in bed isn't a good habit, you should know that!"
A snow-White arm reached out in front of him, its jade-like luster exuding astonishing charm.
This beauty once intoxicated Zhou Yi, but when she took the cigarette from his mouth, he was unwilling.
"You know, I need to think about some things."
"Are you thinking about how to deal with me... or are you thinking about how to keep me from spreading this around?"
Ada's teasing voice rang in his ear, causing Zhou Yi to turn his head and stare at her face.
Ada's face was close, her watery eyes met his, filled with emotions so complex he couldn't decipher them.
At this, Zhou Yi immediately tightened his arms, pulling the thing he was embracing closer to himself.
At the same time, he stared very seriously into Ada's eyes and said to her.
"You should know what I mean. Since I've made this choice, I will take responsibility for you!"
Facing Zhou Yi's unusually serious gaze, Ada seemed very uncomfortable.
She turned her face away and retorted.
"Don't joke. I don't need you to be responsible for me! This isn't a love game, it's just mutual comfort between two consenting adults.
For adults, this should be very normal.
Don't tell me, great lover, this is still your first time!"
"Of course this isn't my first time, I'm sorry, Ada!"
Zhou Yi reached out and gently turned Ada's twisted face back, making her look at him.
"But it is yours, isn't it?"
"Does it make sense for you to care so much about something even I don't care about?"
Regarding Zhou Yi's forceful action, Ada Wong could only sigh mournfully.
Her identity and personality destined her not to be able to demand anything from him like a clinging young woman.
She might as well let go a little, and at the same time, maintain more dignity.
"Listen, Ada, I don't care what you think.
But to me, this means a lot!"
Zhou Yi spoke very seriously, so seriously that Ada wanted to laugh.
"What's wrong with you? Don't forget how the outside World views your past.
A playboy, only a little better than Tony!
So please, don't act like this, okay?
This isn't like you, and I also think it will make those women you once had a fling with sad."
"I admit I was indeed quite wild before, but at that time I paid a sufficient price.
And now, Ada, I want to take responsibility for you."
Zhou Yi whispered these words, while his hands tightened their embrace around her.
This tight embrace made Ada feel particularly uncomfortable; she felt surprised, and at the same time, a sense of being overly surprised.
She really wanted to agree, to find a reliance like an ordinary woman.
But she knew there was still something missing between them, something very crucial.
Their feelings didn't seem to have reached the stage of love yet.
And that was the most crucial issue.
"What exactly do you want to do? Marry me?"
With this profound realization, Ada asked aloud.
She sincerely wanted to know to what extent Zhou Yi's promised responsibility would go.
"If you agree, I have no problem at all."
To Ada's surprise, Zhou Yi nodded very straightforwardly.
"It's not easy to find a woman who accepts all my secrets.
And perhaps, as those teachers at school say, I really do need to find a mother for the children!"
"This is your real purpose, isn't it? You just want to find a mother for those two children."
Ada heard this and playfully pushed his chest, showing her displeasure.
Zhou Yi, however, just quietly grasped her hand and said with ill intent.
"Alright, alright.
If you think that, there's nothing I can do.
So, do you agree?"
Ada's expression changed instantly.
A hesitant look lingered on her face for a long time, and after a while, she quietly sighed and said listlessly.
"Let's just forget it.
I don't think I'm ready yet!
Marriage, it's still too far away for me!"
"Are you sure?"
Now it was Zhou Yi's turn to be a little confused; he thought everything should be very smooth.
"I'm sure, for now, this is fine.
We haven't reached the point of taking it further yet."
Ada pushed Zhou Yi's shoulder as if complaining, found a comfortable spot to rest her head in his arm, and then, like a lazy cat, curled up and lay down.
"I'm tired, I just want to sleep.
Let's drop this topic!"
"Ha!"
Watching Ada end the topic like that, Zhou Yi couldn't help but let out a questioning sound.
He wanted to say something more, but then he realized the woman sleeping in his arm was already breathing evenly.
This made him smile bitterly at once.
Because he knew that anything he said at this moment would be useless; no matter what you did, you couldn't wake someone who was pretending to be asleep.
Ada's attitude was very clear: she didn't want to continue entangling with Zhou Yi on this issue, so she simply feigned sleep to get by.
This left Zhou Yi utterly helpless.
In the end, he could only, like the woman in his arms, honestly fall into a dream.
And so, the day quietly came to an end.
Early the next morning, Zhou Yi was awakened by the movement beside him.
He knew very well that the movement was coming from next to him, so he was even too lazy to open his eyes.
Sometimes people are like this; once they relax to a certain Realm, they will progress to a state of laziness from which they cannot extricate themselves.
Just like Zhou Yi now, he clearly felt that Ada had already gotten up, and had even started making rustling sounds of dressing.
But he just didn't want to get out of bed; it could almost be said that he had now developed the bad habit of lying in bed.
Ada, already dressed, forcefully pushed Zhou Yi, who was still unwilling to move in bed, and seeing him wriggle like a caterpillar, her expression immediately changed.
"Damn it, aren't you getting up yet?
If you keep this up, you'll be seen by the children!"
"Oh, Ada.
I think my lovely children will surely understand their father's hard work yesterday, you know I was really working hard last night, especially after I came back!"
Zhou Yi was still wrapped in the quilt, looking as if the entire World consisted only of the bed.
And this was what Ada least wanted to see.
You know, this was her room, not Zhou Yi's.
If the children saw their father sleeping here, Ada's reputation and everything else would be completely ruined.
Under Ada's urging, Zhou Yi reluctantly opened his eyes.
This feeling of being forcibly dragged out of a cherished, comfortable dream was not good at all.
However, after seeing Ada, his mood inexplicably brightened.
At this moment, Ada was wearing a White silk ladies' blouse, and through the silk weave, Zhou Yi could even clearly see the scenery beneath.
Her long, slender, and straight beautiful legs, encased in a black form-fitting suit skirt and black sheer suspender stockings, formed a stunning sight.
To be fair, Ada had a very good figure.
Although she wasn't the type with particularly exaggerated curves, she was absolutely perfectly proportioned.
Especially her long leg shape, which definitely had a soul-stirring charm.
Coupled with her slender waist that could be encompassed by two hands and her almost perfect female body curves, it was enough to make ninety-nine percent of the women in the World retreat in defeat before her.
This was just her figure, not counting her extremely charming face.
From a woman's perspective, she was almost perfect.
Smart, wise, capable, and very beautiful.
This made Zhou Yi a little smug, after all, such a woman already belonged to him, so how could he not be happy?
"Good morning, Darling Ada.
I thought you'd sleep in a bit longer?"
Hearing Zhou Yi's words, even with Ada's composure as a spy, her face flushed slightly.
She still remembered the extent of their absurdity last night.
However, she quickly regained her composure and softly admonished him.
"Stop messing around, get up now.
I don't want those two Little fellows to misunderstand anything."
Zhou Yi put on his clothes, saying cheerfully.
"Misunderstand what? What can they misunderstand?
Ada, I think you're overthinking it."
"You're definitely doing this on purpose!"
Listening to his words, Ada immediately rolled her eyes at him.
"Maybe, who knows?"
After getting dressed and putting on his shoes, Zhou Yi stepped forward and hugged Ada's waist.
In Ada's panic, he gently leaned his face closer and sniffed her neck slightly.
Finally, in Ada's bewilderment, he directly kissed her.
After a long while, he was forcibly pushed away by the startled Ada, and at this moment, Zhou Yi's face broke into a mischievous smile.
"That's a good morning kiss, Darling Ada.
Also, I find you even more beautiful than yesterday."
After saying that, he stealthily slipped out of Ada's room like a thief.
In fact, not only Ada was worried about being discovered by the children, but he himself was also worried about this problem.
Before their relationship was officially confirmed, no matter what, if the children saw them, it would be a trouble.
Watching Zhou Yi sneak away like that, a certain feeling arose in Ada's heart.
Was this * *?
She felt something wasn't quite right, but no matter what, her mood today was still very good.
Especially after seeing her radiant self in the mirror, this pleasant mood became even more wonderful.
Perhaps this step, for her, wasn't a wrong one after all!
