"What did you say? I can't understand," Su Chen said as he scratched the back of his head, feigning confusion.
"Since that's the case, I'll just ask directly. What exactly is your relationship with this Young Master of the Yun Family? Why does he call you 'boss'?"
Lin Ruoxue did not beat around the bush; true to her straightforward nature, her beautiful eyes were fixed intently on Su Chen.
"What do you an by that? You can insult my character, but you can't insult my aesthetics and sexual orientation! I am a pure man, with no thoughts of fooling around!"
Su Chen widened his eyes and covered his chest with his hands, loudly retorting with a look of terror.
However, Lin Ruoxue did not react at all to Su Chen's exaggerated acting; she continued to stare at him coldly.
It was clear that Lin Ruoxue ant he should not try to change the subject.
Faced with Lin Ruoxue's clear, bright gaze, Su Chen soon lost the battle. His eyes steadily focused on her, Su Chen felt that her gaze was even more terrifying than being pointed at with ten heavy weapons.
"Alright, I'll tell you," Su Chen spread his hands and said, "He used to be my soldier."
"Your soldier?" Lin Ruoxue's beautiful eyes suddenly widened, and she quickly asked, "You were a soldier?"
Su Chen nodded, realizing she knew absolutely nothing about her husband.
But looking at his casual deanor, it hardly seed he could have been in the strictly disciplined military.
And that elder son of the Yun Family, with his haughty and spoiled image, was far from the image of a military man she had in mind!
What kind of soldiers were they? Could it be sothing like pig farming?
"Is there anything else you're keeping from ? Take this opportunity to tell it all," Lin Ruoxue said, quickly regaining her composure and seizing the montum.
Su Chen was silent for a mont, then slowly raised his head and seriously said to Lin Ruoxue:
"Ruoxue, so aspects of my past are quite special; for your own good, I can't tell you now. When the ti is right, I will tell you everything without holding anything back. Trust !"
Watching Lin Ruoxue's serious expression, she nodded:
"I look forward to that day!"
After speaking, Lin Ruoxue sat down to continue working, waving her hand without looking up at Su Chen:
"You can leave now, and close the door."
Su Chen touched his nose and quietly left.
Just then, Su Chen's phone received a ssage from Xia Qiuru, saying she had already gone to buy groceries and asked him to et her directly at the gate of her residential complex at 6:30 PM.
It was only around five o'clock at that ti, and with more than an hour left, Su Chen had no choice but to return to the security room and started playing online card gas.
At ten past six, he picked up his car keys and drove to the gate of the residential complex where Xia Qiuru lived.
When he arrived, Xia Qiuru had just returned from grocery shopping. They smiled at each other and walked side by side into the complex.
Xia Qiuru currently lived in a rented house—she wasn't a local of Jianghai.
Being Jiangnan's political, economic, and cultural hub, property prices in Jianghai were inevitably sky-high.
Although Xia Qiuru was an executive at Belle Corporation, she still found the housing prices a burden.
Moreover, she needed to send money ho regularly to her mother and younger brother, so Xia Qiuru's financial pressure was quite significant.
Although Xia Qiuru's house was rented, it was tastefully and stylishly decorated by her.
The mont Su Chen walked in, he experienced a comfortable and warm feeling.
The house was a two-bedroom and two-living-room apartnt, with the floors, walls, and furniture all impeccably clean.
The overall style of the house was Nordic, full of minimalist and fashionable flair.
From various details, it was evident that Xia Qiuru was indeed the kind of woman you would want to marry and take ho.
In this respect, Lin Ruoxue paled in comparison to her!
"Su Chen, sit on the sofa and read so magazines while I cook," Xia Qiuru said with a smile.
"Director Xia, go on with your work; don't worry about ."
"We should consider each other as friends by now, so stop calling 'director' all the ti."
Xia Qiuru said this with feigned displeasure.
Su Chen was slightly taken aback, "Then what should I call you?"
"Just call Qiuru."
After she said this, Xia Qiuru felt a slight warmth on her cheeks; she hurriedly picked up so vegetables and walked into the kitchen.
"Qiuru? That does sound quite nice."
Su Chen thought to himself, and then he sat down on the sofa.
Su Chen could see the busy silhouette in the kitchen from where he sat; surprisingly, it gave him a feeling of reassurance.
Similarly, Xia Qiuru, who was busy in the kitchen, occasionally glanced at Su Chen, who was flipping through a magazine on the living room sofa, and she suddenly felt a sense of ho.
That must be what they an by "peaceful years."
Suddenly, Xia Qiuru turned her head and saw Su Chen quietly leaning by the door, watching her.
"When did you get here? I didn't hear a sound."
Being looked at with such tenderness by Su Chen, Xia Qiuru suddenly felt butterflies in her stomach.
"It's because you were too focused," Su Chen smiled and said.
"You should just stay on the sofa and read your magazine!"
"You do your thing; I won't bother you."
Su Chen continued to look at her tenderly, his feet not moving an inch.
Xia Qiuru had no choice but to continue chopping vegetables, but she felt her heart start to flutter...
However, she had to force her heart to calm down; just as she was feeling a bit more composed, suddenly a pair of large hands embraced her from behind.
Xia Qiuru's delicate body trembled violently; just as she thought to pull away, Su Chen's distinctly masculine and magnetic voice sounded next to her ear.
"Don't move!"
The voice, as if magical, struck her instantly, leaving Xia Qiuru without the strength or will to resist.
"This is nice!"
Su Chen embraced Xia Qiuru, inhaled her unique scent, slightly closed his eyes, and whispered gently.
"This isn't right."
Xia Qiuru's voice was as faint as a mosquito; her face was flushed, and she seed to have lost all her strength. If not for Su Chen holding her, she might have collapsed.
"What's wrong with it?"
Su Chen laid his head on Xia Qiuru's shoulder and pulled a mischievous smile.
"We, we..."
Xia Qiuru didn't know how to express herself, feeling her heart pounding wildly!
"It's alright, don't say anything. Just focus on what you were doing."
Upon hearing Su Chen's casual words, Xia Qiuru thought, how can I stay calm with you doing this?
But she had no better option, so she continued chopping vegetables with a perturbed heart.
At that mont, Su Chen suddenly lightly kissed her earlobe, as fleeting as a dragonfly skimming the water.
Xia Qiuru felt as if she had been struck by a bolt of lightning; her body jerked violently!
"Ah~~"
A soft cry rang out, for Xia Qiuru's mind had been in turmoil, and her hand had slipped, accidentally cutting herself; bright red blood flowed from her delicate fingers...
"How can you be so careless?"
Su Chen quickly grabbed Xia Qiuru's bleeding finger and started sucking on it...
