The light fell quietly, and the sound of water sounded behind him.
Ye Wen came out of the bathroom, walked to the sofa in front of the French window and sat down, bent her legs, and wrapped her slender arms around her knees.
The moonlight was cold outside the window, and the shadows of the trees were shrouded in hazy light and mist. She looked out the window silently, with a hint of sadness floating in her clear eyes.
For some reason, she always felt that Xie Shuo's attitude towards her was a bit strange recently, or that the atmosphere between the two was a bit strange.
It seems that after returning from the research institute, Xie Shuo's temper suddenly became much milder, and he was no longer as volatile as before. However, their relationship did not go any further, and instead became a little alienated inexplicably.
Like a pool of still water, without waves or ripples.
Before he was depressed, she had to accompany him every step of the way, trying to make him happy, but now, he was in a peaceful mood, busy with the company every day, and no longer needed her help, she seemed to suddenly lose her function and become a dispensable person.
Obviously before going to the research institute, he promised her to try to get along well as a husband and wife—could it be that he was just impulsive at that time? Regret it later? That's why you deliberately alienated her
Ye Wen rested his chin on his knees, slightly frowning his slender eyebrows, a little incomprehensible.
Her calves were sore, and she walked around the street in high heels for several hours in the afternoon, but she still couldn't feel relieved. She squeezed her calves, exhausted, leaned on the sofa, closed her eyes gradually, and fell asleep.
A thin white hand hangs down on the edge of the sofa, the fingertips are faintly shiny.
Time passed slowly, and after an unknown amount of time, the bathroom door opened, and a slender figure emerged from the mist. Under the black nightgown, his calf muscles were strong.
Xie Shuo walked to the sofa and stopped when he saw Ye Wen curled up in a corner with his legs bent.
The soft light shrouded her fair face, blurring a light radiance, making her skin delicate and smooth, and her nose like cream.
She closed her eyes quietly, her dark and slender eyelashes gently covered her eyelids, the shadow was light, her red lips were slightly pursed, full like a rose under the moon.
She was sleeping on her side, with a delicately curved jaw, a slender neck, and her collarbone was covered by the collar, revealing only a little whiteness.
The curve stretches down, the waist is slender, and he has held it more than once in the dark.
Xie Shuo stood quietly and looked at her for a while, the sense of unreality came up again.
After seeing the sun again, most of the people seemed to him to meet again after parting for a while, but she was both familiar and a little strange to him.
During the seven or eight months of being together day and night, he was familiar with her voice and the scent of her body, but he was not familiar with her appearance, so he could only imagine it out of thin air.
These days, he just regained his sight and was anxious to solve the company's problems. He was so busy that he didn't pay much attention to thinking about her. Now that he calmed down, he suddenly wanted to take care of it.
When he agreed to marry her at the beginning, it was indeed as she said, just to find someone to take care of his daily life. He was originally unwilling to take this step, but at that time Xie Baiyan was worried about him and kept nagging, and the old man dragged his sick body to persuade him. He felt that there was no hope of recovering his eyesight, and his heart was depressed, so he simply followed their wishes.
In his situation at the time, the rich and famous ladies of the right family were naturally unwilling to marry, so he picked and picked, and finally picked such an insignificant young lady from the Ye family. With an average background, no one to rely on, no way out, it can save a lot of trouble—of course, the most important thing is that she didn't show any reluctance.
At first, he only thought that she had no choice but to make false claims for the benefit of the Ye family, but after getting married, he would naturally change to a cold attitude and perfunctory.
However, the fact was the complete opposite. Instead of being indifferent, she put all her thoughts on him. Take good care of him, endure his ups and downs, try to make him happy, pull him out, face the world again, and try to accept everything.
—So, she really likes him
The previous doubts flashed in Xie Shuo's mind again.
Or, she simply felt that since she was already married and had no other choice, why not live a good life with him
Thinking of her vowed "divorce when you recover", Xie Shuo frowned slightly, with a displeased expression on his face, and bent down.
The shadow then fell, and he watched her eyebrows and eyes closely, and stretched out his hand involuntarily, wanting to touch her face.
Just when his fingertips were about to touch her cheek, Ye Wen's long eyelashes moved and he opened his eyes.
The four eyes met, but the expression in her eyes was still a little dazed, with the dazedness of waking up.
Xie Shuo froze, reacted in the shortest possible time, suppressed his emotions, and put his slender hands on her face expressionlessly, pretending to be groping.
After groping, he took a step aside and sat down on the other corner of the sofa.
Ye Wen: "..."
If you don't touch it, do you want to slap me in the face
"It's cold, I want to sleep, take a shower and go to bed." Xie Shuo looked straight ahead and said in his usual indifferent tone.
Ye Wen rubbed her eyes, put on her slippers and got up, her calves were sore and numb, she took half a step, shook a bit, almost fell.
Xie Shuo caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye, and subconsciously reached out to help.
Ye Wen stood still, and walked tiredly towards the bathroom. Xie Shuo looked at her slender back with deep eyes, and slowly withdrew his hand that was suspended in midair.
The sound of water resounded in the bathroom, and Ye Wen became more and more dizzy as he was steamed by the heat.
She came out of the shower and breathed in the fresh air before she woke up a bit.
Xie Shuo was no longer on the sofa, but was sitting on the head of the bed, his forehead was shattered and black, and there was still a faint wetness, and half of his face was stern.
Ye Wen glanced at him, finished skin care before going to bed, went to the bed and sat down, lifted the quilt, and slowly put his legs on it.
The soreness in her calf still persisted, she turned her head to look at Xie Shuo, thinking of his strange attitude these past few days, her heart felt a little oppressed for no reason.
Did he really regret it
No, she had to test him to see what he meant.
Ye Wen rolled her eyes, leaned over, lay on his shoulder, and called softly: "My husband..."
Xie Shuo tilted his head, facing the delicate face that was close at hand, blinked his long eyelashes lightly, which could reveal a charming expression.
His eyes moved slightly, afraid that she would notice the clues, so he moved his eyes down, only to catch a glimpse of the scenery under the neckline of her nightgown again.
Ye Yan didn't realize it, and clung to him, saying softly, "I've been shopping all afternoon today, and my legs are so sore, can you massage for me?"
Xie Shuo didn't speak, and looked away from her.
Ye Wen hugged his arm and tugged at his nightgown: "I usually press it for you, and you can press it for me today..."
I thought there would be no response, but unexpectedly, my ankle was suddenly held by a slender and powerful hand.
Xie Shuo lifted the quilt, fumbled to hold her slender ankle, put it on her leg, and gently pressed it.
! ! !
Ye Fan's clear eyes widened: Really helping her
Under the light, the man lowered his head and pinched her calf silently, with an unpredictable expression on his face.
This action has completely exceeded Ye Wen's cognition, she was stunned for a while before she recovered.
The man's finger bones were as long as jade, and he kneaded them slowly, with neither light nor heavy force.
Ye Wen's ears were hot, and he felt a little hot for no reason. His fingers curled up, and he couldn't help but want to retract his legs, but he held them down.
She didn't struggle anymore, she pursed her red lips, glanced at him secretly, caught a glimpse of his drooping long eyelashes, her heart skipped a beat.
With such a big change, do you really figure it out
The weird feeling spread from her calf to her fingertips. She put the pillow aside and leaned sideways on the pillow to watch his movements. The corners of her lips curled up in an obvious arc.
The boredom and loss of the past few days faded away in an instant. She rested her hand on her chin and looked at him quietly, feeling happy.
His thoughts gradually became chaotic, and the stern outline of the man in his vision became blurred bit by bit, shrouded in a halo, his long black eyelashes flickered twice, and finally fell down powerlessly.
The shadow of the lamp was dim, reflecting the slender and slender legs, which were as white as warm jade, hidden under the nightgown.
Xie Shuo's fingers gradually moved up, and when he reached his knees, he looked up at Ye Wen, and found that she had fallen asleep, her eyelashes were drooping, and her face was calm.
He paused, then withdrew his hand, looking at her beautiful sleeping face, his dark eyes seemed to be haloed, extraordinarily soft.
After a long while, he gently put down her calf, pulled off the quilt, covered her, and brushed his fingertips across her cheeks, as if lingering on something.
The lights went out, the room fell into darkness, the pillow was lightly fragrant, and he heard her long breathing, which was the same as many nights in the past.
…
----
The next day, Xie Shuo was unable to go to the company again.
Suddenly news came from the old house that the old man had suddenly fallen ill.
Not daring to delay, the two hurried over.
After getting out of the car and walking through the courtyard, everyone had solemn expressions on their faces. The old man was old and his health had gotten worse in the past two years, and he didn't know how long he could last.
Ye Wen supported Xie Shuo, and followed the servants to the old man's room. The private doctor had just finished his examination and left, and the air in the room was a bit dull.
On the table near the head of the bed, there was an old-fashioned desk lamp with exquisite workmanship and two books stacked next to it.
Seeing the two people coming in, the old man propped himself up and sat up from the bed, Ye Wen hurried forward, supported him, and put the pillow behind him.
Xie Shuo sat down by the bed, and the old man tremblingly held his hand: "Ah Shuo..."
The old man's hands were thin and old, Xie Shuo called "Grandpa" and put his hand on the back of his hand.
The old man raised his cloudy eyes and looked at him with a loving face: "Grandpa heard that you went to Xiao Cen's place again a while ago. How is it? Is it better?"
Xie Shuo hadn't had time to tell the old man about his recovery.
"It's better, don't worry."
The old man only thought that he was comforting himself, the worry on his face did not fade, he patted his hand and sighed.
Seeing the old man's old and weak appearance, Xie Shuo's eyes flickered slightly, he grabbed Ye Wen's wrist, and said in a low voice, "Go and pour a cup of tea for grandpa."
Ye Fan understood that this meant to avoid her, got up tactfully, and left the room.
After Ye Wen left, only the grandfather and grandson were left in the house.
"Do you have something to say to Grandpa?"
Xie Shuo looked directly into the old man's eyes, and suddenly said, "Grandpa, I can see now."
The old man thought he heard it wrong, he was taken aback for a moment, then held his hand tightly, stared into his eyes, his voice trembled with excitement: "Grandpa... did you hear me wrong?"
"You heard me right. My eyes have recovered. I've been busy with company affairs these days, so I haven't had time to tell you."
Xie Shuo freed his other hand and pulled the quilt up for him very naturally.
The old man was finally sure that he heard it right, his face was wrinkled with joy, and tears welled up in the corners of his eyes: "I never thought that grandpa would see this day..."
"You don't have to worry about it anymore."
"well… "
Even after the old man said a few good words, his hands were trembling.
Xie Shuo added: "If you are familiar with this matter and don't know about it, please don't tell her."
The old man was surprised when he heard this: "Why did you hide such a happy thing from her?"
—for telling her she was going to get a divorce.
This sentence flashed through Xie Shuo's mind, and he felt inexplicably irritable.
The old man didn't know that the twists and turns between their husband and wife would make a mistake, so he sighed and persuaded him: "Ah Shuo, grandpa knows that this daughter-in-law was chosen by grandpa and your father, and you don't like it. But being familiar with it is indeed a good idea." Child, you have worked so hard to take care of you for so long, you have to remember her well, don't go too far in everything... "
Listening to the old man's nagging, Xie Shuo replied, "I know, don't worry."
The grandpa and grandson chatted alone in the room for a long time.
----
Probably because people are in good spirits on happy occasions. After hearing the news of his grandson's recovery, the old man's spirit suddenly improved a lot. After lunch, he was able to get out of bed and walk around.
In the afternoon, there was an endless stream of people who came to visit, and Xie Yuran hurried over after two o'clock.
Zhang Muqing followed him.
Seeing her, Ye Wen was a little surprised at first, but after thinking about it, the Zhang family and the Xie family are considered family friends, and it is not unusual for Zhang Muqing to know the old man.
However, the old man's attitude towards her was obviously average, he said a few words to her politely, and then entered the study with Xie Shuo and Xie Yuran, as if he had something important to tell her.
Ye Wen had no choice but to entertain Zhang Muqing in the living room as the host.
She is wearing a light apricot coat and a bottoming skirt today, with light makeup on her face, looking like a gentle and elegant goddess.
The aroma of tea wafted from the desk, and the water mist dispersed in mid-air.
Zhang Muqing didn't regard herself as a guest at all, before Ye Wen could say "please sit down", she just sat down by herself.
She folded her hands on her knees, leaned sideways, and said with a slight smile: "So Miss Ye is also..."
Ye Wen: ... I'm the grandpa's granddaughter-in-law, if I'm not here, should you be here
Ye Wen was stunned by her logic, and returned an embarrassed yet polite smile.
Seeing that she didn't respond, Zhang Muqing's eyes flashed an imperceptible strange color, she picked up the tea cup and took a sip, her white fingertips slightly raised.
Ye Wen looked at her, ready to go to war at any time.
However, Zhang Muqing was also silent, sitting quietly drinking tea, without saying a word, as if holding back some big move.
The two faced each other quietly, the atmosphere was weird and awkward.
Not long after, Xie Yuran came out of the study. He still had something urgent to do, so he didn't stay here for dinner, so he greeted him casually and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, Zhang Muqing suddenly got up and followed out.
Ye Wen:? ?
Shouldn't you be my rival in love? Why are you chasing after others
---
"Yu Ran!"
Zhang Muqing caught up with Xie Yuran in the courtyard.
"Miss Mu Qing."
Xie Yuran stamped his feet, his dark suit jacket was slightly open, his shirt was without a tie, and he looked handsome with a youthful look.
Zhang Muqing looked at him, pursed her lips and smiled: "Can you give me a ride?"
Xie Yuran also smiled: "I'll ask the driver to take you."
Zhang Muqing was about to be happy when she heard another sentence: "If I don't go back to the city, I won't be with you."
After Xie Yuran finished speaking, he called the driver to come and see her off, while he drove away by himself.
The smile on Zhang Muqing's face froze slightly, and a look of disbelief appeared in her eyes.
The winter wind was cold, and her face was shaved like a knife. She followed the driver who sent her to the car, and her face was not very good-looking along the way, so heavy that she could drip water.
When I got home and entered the room, I saw Zhang Junfeng sitting on the sofa in the living room, as if he was waiting for her specially.
"How is it?" Seeing her coming in, Zhang Junfeng asked.
A trace of impatience and boredom appeared between Zhang Muqing's exquisitely drawn eyebrows and eyes: "It's useless. After I returned to China this time, Xie Yuran seemed to be a different person, and he didn't take the bait at all..."
Zhang Junfeng frowned, and asked again: "Where's Xie Shuo? He's been acting a lot lately, so I'm afraid he has become suspicious."
Zhang Muqing smiled sarcastically: "He used to ignore me, let alone now."
Zhang Junfeng frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Since this is the case, then there is no need to waste time on them. I will find other people for you in two days."
Zhang Muqing's fingertips were slightly stiff, she answered "Got it", turned around and headed towards the bedroom, the sneering expression on her face did not fade.
From the moment she was sensible to the present, she knew very well in her heart that she was just a marriage tool cultivated by him, and she had never had the power to choose among different families.
…

Xie's old house.
The old man seemed very excited today, and insisted on letting Ye Wen and Xie Shuo stay overnight. Considering the old man's health, the two could not refuse, so they stayed.
In the evening, the two sat and chatted with the old man.
"How are you two preparing for pregnancy?" While chatting happily, the old man suddenly brought up the topic of giving birth again.
Ye Wen choked for a moment, and subconsciously looked at Xie Shuo. The man's expression was indifferent, and he didn't know whether he simply didn't care, or he didn't know what to answer.
"Grandpa, why do you say this every time?" Ye Wen's ears were slightly red, and he could only show a shy expression, trying to get away with it.
The old man smiled, put their hands together, and looked at Xie Shuo again, as if asking him something.
"Okay, grandpa is tired, you should go to bed earlier."
The two lived in a bedroom on the east side of the second floor. There was a wooden window on the side of the room, facing the courtyard, and the moonlight leaked in, making it as cool as water.
It's not at home, I'm not used to it, and the layout of the house is completely different.
Ye Wen originally thought that Xie Shuo's washing would be difficult, but unexpectedly, it was smooth without any bumps, as if he was very familiar with the environment here.
Ye Wen guessed that it might be because he lived there when he was a child, but didn't think much about it.
After taking a shower, go to bed and lie down, it's less than ten o'clock.
Ye Wen didn't feel sleepy, and didn't turn off the lights in a hurry, but leaned next to Xie Shuo, talking to him in a low voice.
Thinking of how he pinched her legs last night, Ye Wen's heart seemed to be wrapped in honey, and now seeing the handsome silhouette of the man under the lamp, she couldn't help but want to move again.
She stretched out her slender fingers and moved flexibly above his eyebrows, making several gestures.
Xie Shuo was originally lying on his back, but suddenly an extra hand appeared in his line of sight, acting recklessly in front of his eyes, his fingers were slender, making various shadows, jumping in the light.
He didn't dare to react too much, so he could only lower his eyelashes slightly, as if he didn't see anything.
However, Ye Wen became more and more bold, pointing down with his fingertips, he tapped his Adam's apple, and then tapped his jaw.
For the first time, Xie Shuo ignored her.
The second time, her fingers were caught, Xie Shuo took her hand, held it in his palm, and rubbed it habitually.
Ye Wen didn't feel any embarrassment at being caught, so he simply leaned on his shoulder, raised his face and said softly, "Do you remember what I told you that night?"
Xie Shuo turned his face towards her.
Ye Wen looked at him from a close distance, with sparkling eyes: "Just before your eyesight is good, let's try to get along well and be a husband and wife."
Xie Shuo's eyes were dark, and after a while, he responded softly: "Yes."
Da held her hand and did not let go.
Hearing his response, Ye Wen became happy, turned over and leaned on him, and kissed him on the lips.
She always loved to kiss him when she was drunk, but it was rare when she was sober. Xie Shuo took advantage of the opportunity to wrap his arms around her waist, turned over and turned around, and pressed her under him.
Ye Wen was lying on his back, his black hair was scattered between the pillows, and there was light from the bottom of his eyes, which were clear and clear, reflecting his shadow, with a high nose and thin lips, his expression was rare and gentle.
She felt a little nervous for no reason, pursed her lower lip, and her chest heaved a little deeper.
Xie Shuo looked at her condescendingly, his gaze was slightly concentrated, and for a moment he forgot to hide it.
Just when he was about to bow his head and kiss him, Ye Wen stared at the light in his deep eyes, and suddenly expressed doubts——
"Why do your eyes seem to be much brighter than before?"
She paused, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"You can't see it, can you?"
