Chapter 494 Daddy

Song Ruize saw that the belt around Qin Huiyin's waist was loose, so he reached out to tie it for her.

Seeing him doing all this silently, Qin Huiyin felt that his previous idea was correct.

Although he is called an elder brother, he is actually more like a father.

The way he took care of her was like an old father taking care of his worrying little girl.

What?!

She stood up and said, "I've been sitting for too long and I feel a little stiff. I'm going to the lounge at the back for a while. You continue with your work. I won't disturb you."

"good."

As soon as Qin Huiyin left, the whole room became empty.

I didn’t feel it before, but now I feel like I’ve lost something and I’ve suddenly lost my spirit.

He listened to the noise inside, but couldn't hear anything for a long time. He walked into the inner room with light footsteps, only to see Qin Huiyin lying on the bed and sleeping.

Song Ruize sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her palm-sized face filled with a peaceful sweet smile, his eyes full of satisfaction.

"Hmm..." Qin Huiyin turned over and felt heat next to her. She arched her back and found a comfortable position.

She noticed something, opened her eyes, and saw Song Ruize sleeping soundly.

Her eyes widened.

Then she found herself in Song Ruize's arms, and Song Ruize hugged her, holding her tightly, his hands stroking her hair.

She wanted to sneak out, but as soon as she moved, the hand held her tighter.

what to do?

If it were in the past, she would definitely think that there was nothing wrong with lying in the same bed. After all, they were brother and sister, and her heart was at peace with herself and she had a clear conscience.

But recently, for some reason, some strange things appeared in her mind.

Song Ruize acts openly, but she is not open in her mind. This contrast makes her seem despicable.

Let's go back to sleep! She was asleep and didn't know anything, so it wasn't awkward.

Qin Huiyin closed her eyes tightly.

Suddenly, there was a warm touch on my forehead.

Song Ruize withdrew his arm, got off the bed and left the inner room.

After he left, Qin Huiyin opened her eyes and touched her forehead.

She had already convinced herself that the previous kiss was a farewell kiss from 'old father', so why another one now?

What does her brother mean?

Did he treat her as his 'daughter', as his sister, or...

Like her?

The love between men and women.

Should she ask clearly?

However, if it wasn't what she thought, their relationship would become awkward.

Qin Huiyin covered her head with the quilt and struggled in it.

She has experienced a lot over the years, encountered many setbacks, and had to make many decisions, but she has never been as conflicted as she is now.

"Awake?" Song Ruize looked up and saw her coming over, and patted the seat next to him. "Sit for a while, we'll be having dinner soon."

Qin Huiyin hesitated for a moment and sat down.

She turned her head to look at Song Ruize next to her, who looked at her puzzledly: "What's wrong? Are you bored? I'm going to patrol in the afternoon, you can go out and play!"

"I want to follow you." Qin Huiyin said, holding Song Ruize's hand and interlocking their fingers.

Song Ruize was stunned for a moment, a dark light flashed in his eyes, but his right hand did not stop writing, looking very natural.

"I'm going to East City for an inspection this afternoon. You can wait for me in the Food City. You can see me in the study in the Food City, which can be regarded as keeping me company."

Qin Huiyin suddenly took his hand and held it tightly, which was something she had never done before. Even if their fingers had to touch for some reason, they would not hold them tightly.

This action is considered very intimate.

Even siblings shouldn't be so close.

But even so, Song Ruize remained calm and looked normal, even his breathing was not disordered, let alone his face turned red.

Qin Huiyin came to a conclusion: he had no romantic feelings for her.

If anything, he shouldn't be this calm.

Although she has never been in love, she has seen pigs run even if she has never eaten pork. In romance dramas, when men and women create sparks, they are like deer running wildly, with sparks flying everywhere, and even a touch can cause an electric current to surge.

None of these.

He held her hand as if it was his left hand holding his right hand, so naturally.

It turned out that she was overthinking it.

Qin Huiyin wanted to pull her hand back, but the other person held it too tightly and she couldn't.

She wanted to ask Song Ruize to relax, but Song Ruize looked at the booklet in front of him with a frown on his face, as if he was worried.

She couldn't argue with him over such a "little thing".

She just didn't believe it. How could he keep holding her hand? Didn't he feel uncomfortable?

Song Ruize waited until the attendant brought in the food and then he let her go very naturally.

Qin Huiyin couldn't face Song Ruize. Every time he looked up at her, she always felt guilty and didn't dare to face those eyes.

If you have a dirty heart, everything you see will be dirty.

Now when she looks at Song Ruize, she always feels that he is flirting with her.

"What are you thinking about?" Song Ruize picked up some food for her. "Are you feeling depressed? Don't follow me here again. You can see it, it's very boring here, and I always encounter those brainless people quarreling."

Qin Huiyin was amused by him: "I think they are more like children fighting for candy, and you are the head of the family who has to uphold justice for them. If you are unfair, they will definitely make a fuss."

"I don't want to be their head patriarch." Song Ruize muttered, "I'll take you to the food city later."

"Brother, I'll go back to Tang's house this afternoon!" Qin Huiyin said, "You've been doing well and are quite obedient. I don't think I need to keep an eye on you."

Song Ruize: “…”

It’s better not to listen!

The food in front of me became bland and tasteless.

Song Ruize realized that something was wrong with his mentality.

He seemed to want her less and less to leave his sight, and even didn't want her to notice others. If she were to discover this morbid possessiveness, she would definitely be scared away.

This can't be done.

"Okay, I'll take you back later."

The two of them had their own thoughts and ate in silence. After the meal, the attendant arranged a carriage, and Song Ruize took the carriage to send Qin Huiyin back to Tang's house.

He opened the curtain and watched Qin Huiyin enter the gate of Tang's house.

"Let's go!"

After Qin Huiyin returned to Tang's house, she first lay there to rest for a while. She heard voices outside and called out to Zhilan and Sujin.

Zhilan walked in and said, "Miss, you're back."

"What's the noise outside?"

"Shang Zimo joined the Imperial Guards. He was injured just two days after joining the army. The eldest lady is arranging for a doctor to give him medicine."

"How did you get hurt?"

"It seems that he was injured by his opponent during normal training." Zhilan said, "Miss, don't worry about these trivial matters."

"How are you today, brother?"

"The second young master applied medicine to the eldest young master this morning and said that the wound has already scabbed over. If you want to get out of bed and walk around, it's fine if you walk slowly."

"I'll go see him." Qin Huiyin stood up.
