Chapter 269 Tightly Intertwined
After being discharged from the hospital, Yu Zhan rested at the old house for nearly ten days before returning to the manor villa.
Zhou Zhiyi originally wanted him to stay at the old house for a week, but Yu Zhan really needed to stay there every day, hanging a curtain as a backdrop to chat with Luo Shu. He wanted to see her.
I can't wait even a moment longer.
Especially when Gan Chang'an frequently sent him photos, his longing for her grew heavier.
Luo Shu was no different.
She was amazed at how many ingenious ideas Yu Zhan had come up with, even something as simple as hanging a curtain.
Hearing that he was coming back today, Butler Li had already gone to meet him, and she was already waiting impatiently at the gate.
Gan Chang'an couldn't dissuade them; the manor gate was quite a distance from the villa, and it would take several minutes to walk there.
She stood in front of the door, gazing at the only road she could take, her heart filled with tension and excitement that had been building up since she left home.
They hadn't actually met for almost a month. Although they could learn about each other's whereabouts from Gan Chang'an every day, they still thought about each other constantly.
The longing in her heart was like a tidal wave, overwhelming her every night.
Sometimes she even wanted to go directly to the old house, just so she could at least sneak a peek at him.
She didn't want to only see him on her phone.
Gan Chang'an also hoped that the two of them could meet. Speaking of which, he was probably the one who suffered the most from this lie, although he had gained weight.
He could have whatever he wanted to eat prepared by Luo Shu, and he was very adept at being a spy.
Yu Zhan's car slowly drove into the manor, and he saw Luo Shu and Gan Chang'an in front of the gate from afar.
He had liked Luo Shu for a long time, and thought that seeing her again would not stir the same excitement he had felt at the beginning of his feelings. But he never expected that his feelings would be no less intense than before.
The car stopped in front of Luo Shu, who seemed a little flustered.
She knew that Yu Zhan wasn't really on a business trip, but was going to recuperate, and a feeling of heartache welled up inside her.
He was gone for almost a month; he must have suffered terribly...
"What's wrong? In less than a month, you don't even recognize your husband anymore?" Yu Zhan was still sitting in the car when he opened the back door.
Luo Shu pouted, forced a smile that looked like she was about to cry, and got into the car.
The car door was immediately closed, and Luo Shu shoved herself into his arms, holding him tightly.
Butler Li raised the partition, and Gan Chang'an sat in the passenger seat.
Before Luo Shu could say anything, Yu Zhan pulled her into his arms and kissed her lips.
His palms caressed her waist wantonly, restrained yet cautious.
Luo Shu didn't dare to move, afraid of hurting him, but she couldn't control her emotions. She put her hands on his shoulders and responded to his kiss.
Until the car stopped in front of the villa.
Yu Zhan reluctantly let go of her arm.
Luo Shu cupped his face in her hands, "You've lost weight."
She stroked his angular face, which had turned sallow and made him look haggard.
"You've lost weight, you need to help me get some nourishment..." Yu Zhan leaned down and kissed her forehead, his voice hoarse.
Their foreheads touched, and Luo Shu's eyes reddened with heartache.
"Okay, I'll give you some tonic."
After saying that, she opened the car door, got out, and waited for him to come out, afraid that something might happen to him.
But she was overthinking it.
It was just a minor surgery to remove something that didn't belong in his body. He can walk normally now, but he still needs to rest for a while to fully recover.
Yu Zhan got out of the car, took her hand, and walked inside.
But she was still apprehensive, fearing that he was just putting on an act for her.
She didn't want it to be like this.
"Would you like something to eat?" she asked.
"Need not."
Last night, when Luo Shu learned that he was coming back, she had already instructed the servants to prepare the ingredients.
She didn't sleep well last night, constantly thinking about what happened today.
But when Yu Zhan returned, she seemed to have no idea what to do.
“Come upstairs, I have something to show you,” Yu Zhan said.
Luo Shu had no choice but to follow him upstairs.
Yu Zhan was clearly in a hurry. Luo Shu didn't know what he was going to do, but she felt her cheeks getting hot.
Yu Zhan led her to the study, pulled over a chair next to the computer, and the two sat side by side.
She pursed her lips, wondering what he was up to, but she had misunderstood.
"Why is your face so red?" Yu Zhan glanced at her during the brief moment while the computer was booting up, and reached out to touch it.
"Really?" she asked, feeling a little guilty.
Yu Zhan smiled and asked, "Did the little guy bully you?"
He saw through her intentions but didn't say anything. He touched her lower abdomen and pulled her to his side.
"No."
The computer was turned on, and Yu Zhan transferred the files in.
These are their wedding photos.
"So fast?" Luo Shu leaned closer.
It had actually been sent a while ago, but Yu Zhan hadn't opened it yet; he wanted to come back and watch it with her.
He held the person in his arms, and the two looked at each other intently.
"Select and drag them to this folder, or keep them all."
"That's such a waste. Let's not keep the duplicates." Luo Shu's lips curled up slightly as she looked at the photos on the computer.
“Look at this picture, you’ve closed your eyes,” Luo Shu said with a smile.
"No, you're just blinded by what you're seeing."
"Glib-tongued."
The two joked around.
Luo Shu looked at the photo, while Yu Zhan sat beside her watching.
This is much better than lying in bed staring at your phone.
"You came back just to give me something to do?" Luo Shu said, dissatisfied.
He looks like he's back to supervise the work.
"I missed you so much I couldn't eat or sleep, so of course I had to visit you more often when I got back." He carefully picked her up.
"no……"
Luo Shu hurriedly pushed him away; she couldn't sit on his lap right now.
"I haven't done anything yet, and you're already failing? What's wrong with you?" Yu Zhan said, dissatisfied, and reached out to pinch her cheek, trying to make up for all the longing he had felt for her during this time.
"It just won't work."
"..." Yu Zhan frowned and could only hold her in his arms.
"I haven't finished looking at the photos yet."
"You do your thing, don't worry about me."
Yu Zhan held her close, resting his chin on her shoulder. He just wanted to close his eyes and feel her breath.
He hadn't felt her warmth for so long that he had almost forgotten that familiar scent.
Yu Zhan was too clingy, so Luo Shu lost interest in looking at the wedding photos. She decided to have them all, and she was willing to spend more money.
She withdrew her hand from the mouse, found his hand on her lower abdomen, and intertwined her fingers with his.
"I miss you too," Luo Shu said.
"You heartless bastard, only saying this now? I thought you didn't miss me at all." Yu Zhan shifted his position and buried his face in her neck.
With a pitiful look on her face, she was punished by having a mark left on her neck.
Luo Shu felt a tickling sensation on her neck.
Yu Zhan kissed her, his large hand slipping inside her clothes to unbutton the back of her dress before moving around to her front.
His earlobe was covered by warmth, and his kisses slid down her cheek.
He pulled the clothes in front of him up to his rounded shoulders, revealing a large area of skin.
Luo Shu leaned back in her chair, biting her lip, afraid to make a sound.
Yu Zhan's hot breath filled the air in front of her, and her forehead was covered in a thick layer of sweat.
