Bao Jingyan continued to gaze at her.
Su Ruanruan reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, eyes glistening with moisture, softly saying, "I’ll serve you."
Bao Jingyan said nothing.
He gently stroked her dark hair with one hand, unhurriedly, with a certain meaning.
From start to finish.
He never once took his eyes off her small face.
...
It had been a long time since they last acted as husband and wife, it could pass the time well.
Su Ruanruan came out from the bathroom, clinging to his body with an attachment: "I don’t know when we’ll be able to be together properly."
Bao Jingyan said in a husky voice, "Come home with me."
Su Ruanruan made a sound of agreement.
She said, "I want to! But more than that, I don’t want you to fight alone."
Bao Jingyan patted her hand, "In a few more days, I’ll take you to move out."
Su Ruanruan knew that when he said this, he was confident.
She felt joy in her heart.
Bao Jingyan had been drinking, feeling a bit languid.
Su Ruanruan felt sorry for him, "You’ve just recovered from a serious injury, drink less alcohol!"
He joked with her, "The little girls here are good at persuading people to drink."
Su Ruanruan’s expression wasn’t very good.
Bao Jingyan pinched her face, "Jealous and upset?"
She gave a sound of acknowledgment, saying, "I know you need to play along, but... you cannot touch them! The way Mr. and Mrs. Zhou get along will not work with me!"
She warned him again, "You must not smell like others."
Bao Jingyan teased her, "Still as jealous as when you were young, but... Ruanruan, I like you this way!"
Only when you care, can you not tolerate others.
He was the same.
Thinking of her going in and out with He Jitang every day, he almost wanted to stifle He Jitang’s thoughts; if it wasn’t for thinking about the one in that distant place, he would have lost patience long ago.
Bao Jingyan had gone around a big circle, and now his expression showed a hint of jealousy, so Su Ruanruan could clearly see he was jealous.
She felt sorry for him.
She said, "You know me!"
Bao Jingyan knew, otherwise, how could he feel at ease?
He didn’t make things difficult for her, and after speaking with her for a while, he let her go.
Su Ruanruan was reluctant to leave, asking when he would come again.
Bao Jingyan lit a cigarette, saying, "I’ll be around this area for a while, so I’ll come over whenever I have time!"
His voice softened, "Next time, don’t bring the kid out, then we can really have a good time!"
Su Ruanruan blushed.
She scolded him, "Talking nonsense."
Bao Jingyan held her hand, deliberately asking, "I don’t believe you don’t want to!"
How could Su Ruanruan not want to?
But she was always modest, not like him who always had it on the tip of his tongue...
She bid him farewell properly.
Bao Jingyan also became serious, personally escorting her to the door, finally pecking her on the lips, "Just endure a little longer."
Su Ruanruan nodded.
She left and quietly returned to her own box.
The door opened, and she was momentarily stunned.
He Jitang had actually come.
He sat in her seat, looking nonchalant.
Seeing Su Ruanruan come in, He Jitang smiled faintly, "Fourth sister took so long in the bathroom?"
Su Ruanruan’s heart skipped a beat.
Afraid he’d suspect, she sat down and said, "It’s that time of the month, my stomach’s a bit uncomfortable."
Her willingness to confide in private matters made He Jitang’s expression look better.
He spoke gently, "If it’s that time, you should go home early! I’ll have the small kitchen make some ginger tea for you when you get home."
Su Ruanruan gave a soft sound of agreement, still feeling a bit guilty.
On the way home, little Ci’an clung to Su Ruanruan, and He Jitang said, "Your aunt isn’t feeling well, come sit with Dad."
He reached out and picked little Ci’an up, setting her on his lap.
Su Ruanruan leaned back in her seat, saying nothing.
Suddenly, He Jitang spoke, "Why does it smell like smoke?"
