"Is that so?" The Na y Lin teased, "You just got married, it's normal to think like this. Madam, you don't have to be shy."
"Na y Lin, I really don't have any more." Su Jinyi's face was slightly flushed from Na y Lin's words, "This sun is a bit hot, I'll head back to my room first."
After Su Jinyi finished speaking, she stuffed the blanket on her body into the Na y Lin's embrace and quickly escaped.
Watching her hastily leave, Na y Lin laughed deeply.
No matter how you looked at it, it was the bashful look of a newlywed wife who was missing her husband!
He Ruiting arrived home the next day in the afternoon. When he arrived home, Su Jinyi was taking an afternoon nap in his room, still not awake, so he did not disturb her and asked the servant to take his luggage to his room. He sat in the living room and read the financial news.
After watching the news for a while, he turned off the television and called Na y Lin.
"Sir, is there anything you need?"
"How is she these two days?" He Ruiting's eyes were still fixated on the black screen of the television, he could not hear the tone in his words, but, it seemed to have a hint of concern.
"Madam, you've been doing very well these two days. It's only the day you left that you went out for a stroll. You didn't go out again for the next few days, so you stayed at home to see each other." The Na y Lin answered truthfully. As she said that, she revealed a troubled expression, "But ..."
"But what?" Seeing that Na y Lin was hesitating, He Ruiting turned his gaze to her and indicated for her to continue.
"Madam seemed to have something on her mind for the past two days. I asked her yesterday, and she said that she had not yet adapted to such a comfortable life. However, I feel that she seems to be thinking about you."
After hearing what Na y Lin had said, He Ruiting's expression became profound, and the string in her heart tightened. Did she miss him?
Was this the reason why she took the initiative to send him a message? Thinking up to here, He Ruiting's heart actually jumped a little, as if he really wanted to see her.
"Sir? Did you hear what I just said? " Na y Lin was curious, what happened to him? This expression had never appeared on He Ruiting's face before.
"I'm fine, you go and busy yourself first." He Ruiting cleared his thoughts and then got up from the sofa and walked upstairs, leaving behind the puzzled Na y Lin.
He Ruiting did not return to his own master bedroom, but instead went to Su Jinyi's room. The room's door was not locked, so He Ruiting walked in softly with the person on the bed facing the door, sleeping soundly. He slowly approached her and sat down on the edge of the bed. Looking at her sleeping face, he unconsciously put his hand on it.
This was the first time he had had such a feeling, and He Ruiting didn't know how to describe it. It was as if something had smashed into his heart, making his heart feel like it was about to jump out of his throat.
Su Jinyi's eyelashes trembled slightly. Perhaps she had enough sleep, or maybe she had felt the auras of others and slowly opened her eyes. She was a little surprised to see the person in front of her.
"He Ruiting?" Su Jinyi's mind was still a little muddled, she felt that she must be dreaming. Otherwise, why would she see him at the bedside?
"Are you asleep?" He Ruiting's feeling had not disappeared, so his tone was extremely gentle.
"I'm not dreaming. You're back?" Su Jinyi rubbed her eyes with one hand and propped herself up from the bed with the other.
"You've slept for an entire afternoon. Are you hungry?" Seeing her cute appearance, He Ruiting couldn't help but raise his hand and pet her head.
Su Jinyi was shocked by his sudden intimate action, what was wrong with him? Why did she feel that the man in front of her now was so gentle? This was the first time she had seen this.
Not only was Su Jinyi frightened, even He Ruiting herself was frightened by her actions. He stiffly retracted her hand, and didn't dare look at her.
"Na y Lin stewed chicken soup in the afternoon. I'll ask her to cook some for you. He Ruiting stood up from the bed.
"Right." Su Jinyi subconsciously nodded and she still had not recovered from the shock just now.
He Ruiting went out and even closed the door for her with concern. The moment he closed the door, only then did Su Jinyi come back to his senses, he patted his face to clear his mind and crawled out of bed. It was probably because she had just woken up, but she felt a little cold.
When she went downstairs, Su Jinyi saw that He Ruiting was also sitting at the dining table, with a bowl of soup in front of him and another bowl of soup in front of him. Su Jinyi subconsciously tidied up her hair and clothes, then sped up her footsteps and sat opposite him.
"Drink while it's hot." Seeing that she had sat down, He Ruiting put down the phone in his hand and started drinking the soup with her.
"When did you get back?" Su Jinyi asked him as she drank the soup.
"I've been back less than two hours." He Ruiting lowered his head and drank the soup, not looking at her.
Su Jinyi did not reply, and also lowered her head to quietly drink the soup. Although she did not like this kind of quiet atmosphere, she was still unable to find a topic to talk about in this short period of time. He Ruiting was also silent the whole time, as if she did not want to say anything. The two of them were silent just like that, with only the sound of spoons colliding with bowls.
This kind of quiet and somewhat stifling atmosphere caused Su Jinyi to be unable to sit still. Very quickly, the soup in her bowl was finished.
"I'll get Na y Lin to help you fill another bowl." Even though He Ruiting had been silent the entire time, his attention was still on Su Jinyi.
"Ah, there's no need for that. Drink another bowl, and we won't be able to eat anymore tonight." Just as Su Jinyi was about to take the bowl to the kitchen to put it on display, before she could even stand up, He Ruiting's words stopped him from thinking about standing up.
"Alright then." He Ruiting nodded, then continued, "Go up and pack, we'll eat outside at night."
"Ah, where are we going?" Su Jinyi did not understand. She remembered that the Na y Lin had told her that she had to eat a lot of dishes she loved to eat tonight.
"You'll know once you get there." He Ruiting didn't say where he was going.
Su Jinyi did not have much to pack, so she went upstairs to change her clothes, then took her bag and went downstairs. He Ruiting looked at her attire and felt that he was somewhat satisfied. Without saying anything, he led her to the carriage. Su Jinyi realized that He Ruiting was driving his own car today, and did not arrange for a driver to drive. He couldn't help but be curious where he was supposed to take him.
As the car drove along the road, Su Jinyi looked at the scenery outside the window. She could not resist her curiosity and asked: "Where are we going?"
