Sweet Wife in My Arms - Chapter 546
Chapter 546: You Should Slap Yourself To Death
Indeed, he had always been bad at remembering faces. He did not have much concept of women’s looks; they all looked the same for him. Yan Huan was the only woman distinguishable to him in terms of looks. As for the others, he did not have much feeling for them.
It could be put in this way: Lu Yi had an outstanding talent in recognising numbers compared to the others but he had a trivial face blindness, causing him to forget the faces of those whom he did not care much about, especially women.
He opened the car door, threw the files in and drove back to his own apartment.
As for this, he looked at the paper bag at the side and decided not to tell her so that it could be a surprise for her when she came back. He was certain that she would like that.
Lu Yi never mentioned about the land in their latest video calls. Yan Huan thought that those from the Su Family refused to give the land up, so she stopped asking.
As for what the Su Family offered and to whom the offers were for, Yan Huan did not really care. As long as it was not the land, she was insensible.
Half a month later, Zhu Xiaoye was done with his filming and only the late stage productions were left. They also finished their filmings at the set and were free to return home.
Yan Huan kept her things and was prepared to go back with Luo Lin. She still did not tell anyone.
Lu Yi was too busy. She knew that he would postpone all his work to come and fetch her if she told him. However, she did not want to trouble him. One single day off might cost him several restless days and nights. She did not want him to pay such a price.
Yan Huan and Luo Lin boarded the plane together. Both of them had not been at home for a long time and they could not wait to go back.
“Are you homesick?” Yan Huan asked Luo Lin.
“How can I not be?” Luo Lin put her hands at the back of her head and felt so relieved, “What a journey, we can finally go home after a year of work.”
“Didn’t you just get back from home?” Yan Huan was an honest person and she would not give Luo Lin a chance to express her feelings.
Luo Lin rolled her eyes.
“No one will think you are dumb even if you keep quiet.”
“Only when I talk will people not regard me as a dumb person,” Yan Huan objected in all seriousness.
She covered her body with her own clothes. It was her habit to sleep whenever she was on a plane. Whether it was a car or a plane ride, she would just sleep as soon as she got on board and she would be arriving at the destination when she was awake. She might miss out on the scenery along the journey, but everyone would miss out on something in their lives.
One might be destined to miss out on something to be able to admire another better scenery in the future.
“Who do you miss the most?” Luo Lin opened her eyes suddenly. She turned to face Yan Huan as she asked her. Yan Huan’s eyes were closed but her breath was just like before so Luo Lin knew that she was not asleep.
“Missing my man.” Yan Huan tugged her clothes toward her chin.
Luo Lin’s eyes twitched. Can you not be this blunt? “Your man just left and you have video calls with each other every night, making no difference to couples who are by each other’s side. How can you bully someone single like this.”
“I am not being blunt,” Yan Huan continued, annoying Luo Lin.
“A woman without a man like you would never understand how it feels to be a woman who is missing her man.”
Luo Lin held out her hand and was so close to strangling Yan Huan.
This vicious woman.
Yan Huan was already asleep. Her sleep was so deep that she did not wake up even when the train arrived at the station.
“Wake up…” Luo Lin tapped on Yan Huan’s face slightly heavier than before as revenge.
Yan Huan opened her eyes and Luo Lin quickly kept her hands back. She coughed awkwardly and said, “We are here. We’re getting off the plane soon.”
Yan Huan touched her face. It hurt.
She might be the most pitiful celebrity who was slapped by her own manager.
Luo Lin stopped a taxi with their luggages. She did not tell anyone about their return.
In the car, Luo Lin put her finger in front of her, immersed in her unknown thoughts.
“Was it fun? For slapping my face just now?” A voice intruded suddenly and Luo Lin could not react to it immediately.
“Yes, it felt good, I should do it more whenever I am free.”
“Ah, is it? No wonder someone would slap her own face every day and night.”
Luo Lin stiffened her body. She turned her face over slowly and saw Yan Huan laughing. Her smile was beautiful but there was always something else in her smile, sending a shudder through one’s body…
Horror.
Luo Lin’s eyes twitched.
I slapped my own face?
Was that not it? Yan Huan calculated with her fingers. Every day and night, she would slap her face with patting noises. That must’ve hurt.
It must be really painful!
Luo Lin’s face turned gloomy. Slapping my own face? That was me doing my skincare routine.
But was there a need to slap yourself in the face for the purpose of skincare?
“I only wanted my skin to absorb the essence quicker.”
“Ah I see, more pain indicates quicker absorption,” Yan Huan suddenly realized that the reason behind all these slappings were for the face to absorb the essence. She never knew that there was this reasoning behind it.
“And…” Yan Huan placed her hand on Luo Lin’s shoulder, ” Do you know what I am thinking about whenever you are slapping yourself?”
“What are you thinking?” Luo Lin regretted instantly after asking the question. She wanted to slap herself. Why would she even bother to talk about this? Yan Huan would never have anything nice to say.
Yan Huan smiled. Her smile gave Luo Lin goosebumps.
“I was thinking…”
“Keep slapping, keep slapping! You should slap yourself to death.”
Luo Lin was so annoyed by Yan Huan, she wanted to vomit blood.
Upon reaching their destination, Luo Lin extended her hand toward Yan Huan and asked for the car keys.
“Alright.” Yan Huan gave her car keys to Luo Lin and she drove back home. She would not be back before the New Year.
Yan Huan put her baggage down and planned to take a shower, change her clothes and take a rest. She was way too exhausted, she needed some good sleep.
She did not know when Lu Yi would be back but it should about time, she thought. It was getting darker outside, the sky darkened even quicker especially during winter.
She took her hat and mask while getting ready to head to the market for ingredients she needed to prepare a meal. The housekeeper was already gone at this time, as usual. Since her hometown was not in Sea City, she left several days before the New Year.
She bought some vegetables, tomatoes, eggs and meat. She was going to make Lu Yi some braised pork even if she did not eat meat because Lu Yi loved them.
