"Guess what?" She playfully stared at him, unwittingly getting lost in his eyes that were as calm as the murmur of a night stream.
Ye Gushen’s charisma wasn’t just about his strikingly handsome looks; it was also his innate calmness, cool demeanor, and steady nature.
He truly was a god among men, unmatched by anyone.
Except, when he was with her, in bed, he would occasionally show a roguish, soldierly demeanor that made her seriously doubt if he had a split personality!
How could he balance it so well!
"I guess, yes." Ye Gushen met her gaze, his amber eyes that seemed to have been unearthed after a thousand years reflecting her image.
Ye Gushen played with the strand of hair near her ear, his voice low and tender, yet laced with an irresistible charm, "Honestly, you can call me anything you like, but I prefer ’husband’ the most."
"Husband..." she immediately called out.
She thought she saw a sparkle in his dark eyes, and his enchanting voice sounded in her ear again, "Say it once more."
"Husband!" she said cooperatively, "It’s not the first time I’m calling you that, what’s up with you today?"
"I’m still jealous; I’ve been feeling a bit jealous lately." Ye Gushen answered earnestly.
"I’m not going to argue with you, Brother Bei is just a brother!" She pushed him lightly with her small hands, "Come on, come on, let me help you remove the stitches!"
Tang Suiyu’s fingertips brushed over his eight-pack abs, her heart skipping a beat; he felt so warm.
"Dear Mr. Ye, do you have a fever?"
"Jealousy can cause fever? I’ll have to study that later." Ye Gushen swiftly tore off the bandage around his waist, revealing a faint pink scar underneath.
Being in the military for so long, a small injury was nothing to him; he could even remove the stitches himself.
But with Ruannuan around, he just wanted her help.
"You being so openly jealous is unexpected. I thought with your personality, you’d sulk in silence! Be quietly jealous! Like, ’I’m jealous, I’m unhappy, come and soothe me!’ But it seems quite different from what I imagined."
If he hadn’t consulted Li Xingle, he might have really done that.
Li Xingle said someone like Ruannuan, it might be better to speak out, keeping things bottled up would only make both of them uncomfortable.
In matters of love, Li Xingle is the true expert!
He was trying hard to be Ruannuan’s one and only love expert.
"So, will you comfort me?" Ye Gushen sat on the edge of the bed, looking down at her earnest expression.
"No way! I’d just glare at you, tell you you’re overthinking, and then go play games!" She twisted the stitches with the pliers and snapped them clean.
It hurt like an ant bite, and Ye Gushen’s dark eyes fixed on her, "Playing too many games is bad for your eyes."
"..." She was just making a point, why did he have to take it so seriously!
"Mr. Ye, you’re way too serious!" Tang Suiyu put down what she was holding and sat on his lap, hooking her arms around his neck, "Or should I call you Uncle Ye?"
"If Uncle Ye is..." She glanced towards the door, almost saying it.
She couldn’t say it; it was just a joke in her mind anyway.
"...going to be a good friend in the future!" She slowly turned her gaze back to him, "Well, I’ll go ask Li Zi about tomorrow’s classes. I’m planning to go back to school tomorrow!"
She scurried off in a hurry!
Almost spoke without thinking!
