Su Xiaong looked at him and said with great difficulty, "If you want... I, I..."
"Hey, never mind, seeing you like this, I’m not in the mood anymore."
Saying that, he got up and gave Su Xiaong the dication left by the family doctor, along with a glass of water. "Take the dicine, and let’s go to bed early."
"Okay."
After taking the dicine, Yin Shixiu lay down on the bed, leaning back, stretching out his arm for her to co over.
"I’ll take a shower first."
Su Xiaong said, putting down the glass, taking clean clothes, and heading into the bathroom.
The sound of water was loud, and Yin Shixiu looked at the closed bathroom door, vaguely feeling sothing was off with Su Xiaong.
Su Xiaong rubbed the shower gel, washed repeatedly, and when she finished, her body was all red again.
Putting on pajamas and drying her hair, she finally ca out of the bathroom.
Yin Shixiu was leaning against the headboard, the book in his hand half open, resting on the side of the bed. She walked over slowly, looking at his handso yet tired profile in the bedside lamp’s glow.
She didn’t know how long she looked until a tear fell down, pulling her back to reality.
She took the book from his hand and placed it on the nightstand, turning off the lamp on the nightstand before lying down on her side of the bed.
As soon as she lay down, Yin Shixiu reached out and pulled her into his arms, slightly lowering his head, his nose brushing against hers.
Su Xiaong’s entire body tensed up unconsciously...
"Sleep, no fooling around."
Yin Shixiu said softly, patting her back, encouraging her to relax a bit.
Su Xiaong lowered her head, clenched her fists, but couldn’t fall asleep for a long ti.
Only when she heard Yin Shixiu’s steady breathing did she slowly wriggle out of his embrace, turning to face away from him...
In the morning, when Yin Shixiu woke up, he instinctively reached out to hold his wife, but the bed beside him was already empty.
He paused for a mont, got up, and walked into the living room, seeing that Su Xiaong had already prepared breakfast and was now morizing English words.
She looked up at the sound, waved at him, "Co over quickly for breakfast."
Yin Shixiu strode over, extending his hand to feel Su Xiaong’s forehead, and only after sensing it was normal did he relax.
Sitting across from her, Yin Shixiu couldn’t help but remind her, "Continue taking your dication today, don’t skip any."
"Okay."
"Do you have classes at school today?"
"I have a lecture at ten. After class, I’ll disinfect the house and wait for you to co back. Then we can go pick up Shuangshuang and Huang Huang."
"Alright."
Yin Shixiu responded, then eating his breakfast, "These fried eggs are getting better and better."
"From now on, I’ll get up early and make breakfast for you."
Su Xiaong said.
Yin Shixiu raised an eyebrow, glanced at Su Xiaong, and with a light smile, asked, "Did you do sothing that would upset ?"
Su Xiaong dropped the peanuts she had picked up onto the table, her expression montarily frozen.
"Did your IELTS results co out? Didn’t do well?"
Yin Shixiu teased.
Su Xiaong quickly said, "No, I just think I should make breakfast for you... can’t I be good to you?"
Yin Shixiu took a sip of juice, freshly squeezed...
Looking at Su Xiaong, who was casually eating breakfast across from him, he smiled and said, "Of course, it’s good, I’m just afraid you won’t keep it up for long."
"I will keep it up..."
Su Xiaong said softly, and Yin Shixiu read the newspaper for a while, then glanced at the ti, taking his car keys and heading out.
He stood at the door, glanced at Su Xiaong who was tidying up the dining table, and waved her over.
"Co here."
Su Xiaong walked over, Yin Shixiu slightly turned his head to look at her...
"What, what’s wrong?"
"If you’re not feeling well, don’t go to school. Take a couple of days to rest."
"It’s fine, I’m all better."
Su Xiaong smiled, and Yin Shixiu wrapped his arm around her waist, "Shouldn’t there be a kiss?"
Su Xiaong tiptoed, touched his lips with hers, and then pushed him out, "Alright, alright, hurry up and go, be careful on the road. Co back early."
After sending Yin Shixiu off, Su Xiaong regained her composure and continued tidying up the dining table.
In the afternoon, Yin Shixiu took Su Xiaong to the Yin Mansion to fetch their two children, staying for dinner at the Yin Family’s house that evening.
Mrs. Yin asked Ah Su to pack so ginseng for them to take back.
In the evening, while Su Xiaong was showering, Yin Shixiu received a call from his mother. The first thing she asked was, "Is Xiaong beside you?"
"She’s showering."
Zhou ngqin then spoke, "She looked quite unwell today, you should pay more attention to her."
"Ok, I will."
"If you can put off work, do so for a few days. You were away on a business trip for more than half a month this ti, and she only had the maids to look after her when she fell ill, so it’s inevitable she feels a bit upset."
"I understand, I’ll take good care of her."
"My birthday is next week. If you and Xiaong feel like it, co over; if not, take her out for a bit."
