“Yes?”
Su Yanyun raised her brows, not understanding why her husband was suddenly looking at her so quietly.
The bedroom was very quiet. The thick curtains isolated them from the night outside, and only the light from the yellow lamp illuminated the gentle orange color of the room.
Rong Linyi’s voice was low and dreamy. “In the past month, every time night fell, I would think how good it would be if you were here…”
Su Yanyun covered Rong Linyi’s hand with her own and squeezed his.
“I’m here now.” Her voice was so gentle.
“You have to be here every night from now on.” Rong Linyi lowered his head and kissed her finger gently.
It was rare for him to show such a gentle and weak side to her.
At that moment, Su Yanyun suddenly had a feeling that his usual harshness, toughness, and coldness… were just methods he had to use to protect his heart.
She didn’t know what he had gone through, nor did she know the kind of injuries and pain he had experienced.
But at this moment, she was willing to open her arms and provide a clean and warm harbor for him.
A rapid ringtone broke the silence.
Rong Linyi picked up his phone and looked at the number on it. He seemed to think for a long time before answering.
“It’s already so late, what’s the matter?”
It was Jiang Chenglong’s phone number.
Rong Linyi basically had no connections with the Jiang family, but he didn’t have any bad relationship with Jiang Chenglong. Perhaps it had something to do with Rong Xuelong for him to call so late at night.
“I’m sorry, Young Master Yi, for disturbing you so late.” Jiang Chenglong’s voice was forced. “Erm, someone has very important things to discuss with you…”
Rong Linyi frowned and didn’t answer.
But a woman’s voice had already sounded on the other end of the line. “Linyi, it’s me… Don’t hang up yet. There’s something I have to see you for immediately… When my brother came back tonight, I rummaged through his bag and found a sapphire…”
Rong Linyi was really about to hang up.
He paused after hearing Jiang Yilin’s last words.
“Continue,” he said coldly.
“I asked him. He said that this gem is yours and said that he took a lot of effort to snatch it from you… Is this… this gem very important to you?” Jiang Yilin asked carefully.
“What if I say it’s not important?” Rong Linyi asked.
Jiang Yilin scoffed carefully. “Linyi, I don’t care if this gem is important to you. I only know that this is yours. I’ve already stolen the gem from Brother while he was drunk… If you want it, I want to return it to you face to face…”
Rong Linyi’s gaze fell on Su Yanyun’s face.
Su Yanyun was looking at him in a daze. She didn’t know who was on the phone with him or what their conversation was about.
“Where are you?” Rong Linyi looked back and asked.
“I’ll send you the address.” Jiang Yilin’s voice was happy. “I’ll leave immediately. See you in half an hour… As soon as possible, it’ll be bad if Brother wakes up.”
After hanging up the call, she returned the phone to Jiang Chenglong in a good mood. “Thank you, thank you.”
Jiang Chenglong pondered for a second and asked Jiang Yilin. “Is what you and Rong Linyi said true?”
“Of course it’s true.” Jiang Yilin looked at Jiang Cheng unhappily. “What do you mean?”
