After recovering her strength, Ye Shengge took a shower and changed her clothes. Sister Xiu had returned from Ming Building with her luggage.
“Young Madam, let me help you put it on,” Sister Xiu said with a smile.
“No need. I’ll do it myself later. You don’t know my habit of placing things.” Ye Shengge smiled. “Thank you.”
“You’re being too polite, Young Madam. This is what I should do.” Sister Xiu handed the key back to her.
Ye Shengge took it and felt the coldness of the key.
“Let’s go down. Shiting should be back soon.”
…
As night fell, the lights in the villa lit up.
Ye Shengge stood at the door to welcome him.
Ji Shiting got out of the car and walked to her. He grabbed her hand and said, “Why are you standing here?”
“I want to see you as soon as possible.” The woman smiled, and her eyes were filled with longing.
Ji Shiting couldn’t be upset anymore. He softened his eyes and grabbed her waist. “Come have dinner.”
At the dining table, Ye Shengge acted like a considerate wife. She smiled gently and scooped soup and food for him, not even bothering to eat.
Ji Shiting found it amusing, but his heart softened.
“What’s wrong, huh?” He chuckled. “Are you that happy?”
“I’m still your wife. Of course I’m happy.” Ye Shengge looked at him and curled her lips. “If you dare to date another woman again, I’ll break your legs.”
Ji Shiting smiled and said, “Ye Shengge, you’re getting bolder.”
“That’s because you spoiled me.” Ye Shengge snorted. “Besides, haven’t you been threatening to break my legs every day?”
The man’s heart pounded seeing how delicate she was.
“Mm, that’s right. It’s all my fault.” His voice was hoarse. “Don’t bother about me. Eat more yourself.”
The two of them had often eaten together before, but they had never been so intimate and harmonious like today. Perhaps it was because they were telepathically connected, but Ji Shiting no longer suspected that she was being gentle to please him. Ye Shengge also didn’t need to worry about making him unhappy with what she said, so they didn’t need to hide or pretend anymore.
That was probably how real couples were. They had been married for so long, but this was the first time they were getting along like ordinary couples.
Ye Shengge felt sore seeing the gentleness in the man’s eyes.
Ji Shiting wiped his mouth with a napkin and said, “Aren’t you curious about what grandpa and I talked about?”
Ye Shengge clenched her chopsticks and smiled, “At least grandpa didn’t faint from anger. That’s the best outcome for me.”
Ji Shiting looked at her and smiled, “Grandpa is indeed very angry, but he’s experienced all kinds of things, so he won’t faint from anger.”
“Grandpa definitely won’t allow me to move back.” Ye Shengge smiled self-deprecatingly.
“There’s nothing he can do if he doesn’t agree,” Ji Shiting said calmly, but his tone was firm. “I’m his only grandson. He has no choice.”
Ye Shengge’s breathing stagnated for a moment, but then, she smiled.
“I’m full.” She looked at the man opposite her and bit her lips. “Shiting, you don’t have any work tonight, do you? Can you accompany me?”
