She couldn’t answer the silly dog’s question because she couldn’t provide compensation. But she couldn’t say no either, or he would start crying again later.
If it were an ordinary child crying, she might have been able to soothe him.
But him…
He was not an ordinary child!
So, she posed a more tempting question.
Sure enough, her silly dog was taken aback, then asked, “Oh, right, Wife, didn’t you go back to the family mansion? Why did you suddenly come here?”
Then, looking utterly clueless, he said, “Oh, this is Wife’s first time coming to my house!”
His face lit up with excitement as he said, “Wife, do you want me to take you around, show you some places?”
“It’s already dark, what is there to see?” Liu Shimei naturally refused.
She came to find him because she wanted to see him, it was a momentary impulse.
But even the entire Capital knew that they were ‘inseparable’, always together. It wasn’t proper for a young girl to come to her fiance’s house like this.
She hadn’t thought much about it before coming due to the negative emotions pressing on her heart. But now that she was here, she could not just go out and make a spectacle for others to watch!
Huangfu Lingyao thought about it too.
He lay down, moving his head away from hers and onto the bed, burying his face in the soft pillow, took several deep breaths, suppressing the restlessness in his bones. He rubbed his nose against her ear and asked, “Then why did you suddenly come?”
It was a question she had asked herself, but when the dog asked it so smoothly, she found herself at a loss.
How should she answer?
In the end, she was honest and said, “I just… suddenly wanted to see you.”
“But we just separated.” Huangfu Lingyao’s heart was ecstatic, but he had to appear surprised and innocent on his face. He said, naive and sweet, “Oh, Wife, are you like me? Every time we part, even before returning home, I miss you. Are you the same as me?”
Liu Shimei’s lips twitched slightly.
Of course, she wasn’t. She often thought of him, yes, but it did not happen the moment they separated.
Today was just an exception…
“I was feeling really down earlier, didn’t think much of it,” Liu Shimei avoided his question, sighed, and said, “I don’t know what happened; I just suddenly became sentimental.”
She had thought she was strong enough, that these small emotions wouldn’t make her lose control. Moreover, those people weren’t her closest relatives in her soul.
But humans were not like plants; they couldn’t remain emotionless!
She lay on his large couch, staring at the intricately carved bedposts, and said, “Don’t ask me why I’m feeling low; I can’t explain it. In that moment, I just felt so sad, so incredibly sad. Suddenly, I wanted to see you, and then I ran out.”
As she analyzed herself, she completely failed to notice what expression Huangfu Lingyao wore!
Of course, he was immensely shocked inside, but only a small part of it showed on his face. He asked in astonishment. ‘When my wife is feeling down, she wants to see me?’
This realization threatened to drown his entire heart in joy!
Based on the Liu Shimei he knew, she was not very sensitive when it came to emotions. Despite her intelligence, she was quite dull in this regard.
If he were a modern person, he would recognize this as: a tough, unyielding woman!
He had been working on nurturing their relationship, but for the past few months, all he got was him sticking to her, and her willingness to indulge him, but she never actively reciprocated!
This was the first time, Liu Shimei had actively sought him out!
And this was the first time she had come to him because she was feeling low!
