Yun Qian is someone whose thoughts are hard to grasp, so even when she suddenly covers her eyes, Xu Chang’an is only surprised for a moment.
What kind of scenery is before him now?
Yun Qian is a very charming person.
But there are many types of charm in a person, and for Xu Chang’an, who is accustomed to her beauty, to feel a thrill is extremely rare.
For Xu Chang’an, when he sees Miss Yun covering her eyes, with her oval-shaped face and elegant brows, it’s as if the strings of his heart are fiercely plucked by a jade hand, and only by gripping his sleeve does he restrain his thoughts.
It’s the first time he sees Miss Yun emanating such an aura. If he must say, the ribbon covering her eyes magnifies and manifests the mystery unique to Yun Qian that only he knows.
Is it just covering the eyes that creates such an effect and looks so good?
Xu Chang’an doesn’t quite understand.
The eyes are the windows to the soul, and he is someone with a discerning heart. Although he loves everything about Miss Yun, he can rank them in his mind, and her gentle eyes undoubtedly make it into the top three.
Yet now not seeing her eyes, he feels even more moved.
It shouldn’t be , he’s not someone who gets bored with the old and yearns for the new.
This is what Xu Chang’an thinks.
Yun Qian closes her eyes, the evening sun’s rays blocked by the ribbon, her sight is dark, yet she can clearly perceive Xu Chang’an’s presence right in front of her.
One sensation from the ribbon, another from his breath.
Yun Qian slightly tilts her head, thinking this method is feasible. As long as she covers her eyes, even if he gets hurt, she can pretend not to see, thereby not spoiling his mood.
Learning that system’s "don’t look" approach was indeed correct, very useful.
Her view of the system has shifted a bit.
With this thought, Miss Yun slightly opens her mouth, waiting for Xu Chang’an to feed her the unappealing snacks.
Xu Chang’an still does not move, as if frozen in place.
Yun Qian is not in a hurry, she knows her husband lacks initiative, so she just bites her lip and continues to wait.
The chirping of birds outside the window is clearly audible.
Xu Chang’an glances at the pastries in front of him, then at the flock of autumn sparrows not far away, and finally his gaze falls on Yun Qian’s neck, his eyes deep, pupils trembling slightly.
Yun Qian’s neck starts to ache.
If she hadn’t heard Xu Chang’an’s breathing, she would’ve thought he had left her there and walked away alone.
Yun Qian slightly furrows her elegant brows, asking uncertainly, "What are you doing? Weren’t you going to feed me?"
Hearing Yun Qian speak, Xu Chang’an pauses, the emotion in his eyes gradually fading.
Her voice is still so gentle and soothing, best at calming him down.
"Miss." Xu Chang’an steps in front of Yun Qian, his hand brushes across the ribbon before gently resting on her cheek.
Yun Qian feels the warmth on her face, she tilts her head towards Xu Chang’an’s palm, "What’s wrong with you?"
"I like your eyes." Xu Chang’an says earnestly.
"Hmm, I know." Yun Qian nods, her eyes covered, calmly says, "Why say this? Want to see my eyes? Let me eat the snack first, then go make dinner, I’m really hungry."
"Alright." Hearing Miss Yun’s focus on dinner, the turmoil in Xu Chang’an’s heart instantly dissipates, he gently sighs, picks up an item, and brings it to Yun Qian’s lips.
Yun Qian’s lips slightly open, biting onto the item Xu Chang’an offers, but just as it enters her mouth, she pauses.
"Frosting? Not sesame?"
She remembers clearly sprinkling sesame over the insect, but it tastes completely different from what she thought.
"Where does candy have sesame? It’s supposed to be frosting." Xu Chang’an laughs, his hearty laughter clearly reaching outside, startling a flock of autumn sparrows.
"What’s so funny." Yun Qian tastes the familiar sweet jelly, asks curiously, "Weren’t you giving me the cake?"
"Not eating." Xu Chang’an says, "Since you covered your eyes to not look, how can I be hard-hearted enough to make Miss eat?"
"It’s not because of the snacks." Yun Qian shakes her head, thinking if in cultivation he were not so hard-hearted, not getting hurt would spare her heartache.
"Anyway, today I’ve lost." Xu Chang’an says, reaching to loosen the ribbon over Yun Qian’s eyes.
As Yun Qian opens her eyes, under the Fire Stone’s glow, Xu Chang’an thinks her brows and eyes are more beautiful, radiant and alluring.
Seeing Xu Chang’an tightly clutching the ribbon, his body stiff, after a momentary pause, Yun Qian sighs, "You’re such a strange person, I’m your wife, why hold back."
"Miss, I’ve already said, I like your eyes." Xu Chang’an says helplessly.
"So?" Yun Qian takes out a handkerchief, spits out the pit, and looks at Xu Chang’an, "You want my eyes? I can give them to you."
"The mood I’ve set up for so long, you’ve completely shattered." Xu Chang’an’s mouth twitches, these words sound a bit creepy.
What’s he supposed to do with her eyes.
"Whatever makes you happy." Yun Qian vigorously pries open Xu Chang’an’s fingers, retrieves her favorite red ribbon, smooths out the creases, and looks at the untouched pastries on the plate, asks, "Really not letting me eat it?"
"Not eating." Xu Chang’an responds.
Leaving other matters aside, at least today it’s not possible, unwilling to part with it, he will think of a way later.
