However, just as she excitedly approached the refrigerator, ready to enjoy the delicious treat, she suddenly noticed a sticky note on the refrigerator door: "Don't steal any ice cream. I know how much is in there." Instantly, her smile froze on her face, her little face scrunched up, and she reluctantly closed the door again.
It turned out that she had received a WeChat message from Song Yunzheng before get out of class ended: "I have surgery tonight and may be home late. I have ordered your favorite dishes for dinner."
She was secretly delighted, thinking that she could sneak some of the delicacies that were usually forbidden while he was away from home. But she never expected that he was like a mind reader, always able to easily read her mind and even anticipate her little schemes.
Looking at their spotless, well-organized home, and remembering how he was working overtime at the hospital and still thinking of her, the slight disappointment she felt at not being able to eat ice cream vanished instantly. His meticulous care for her made her like him more and more, and depend on him more and more. With him around, she had nothing to worry about. To be precise, no one had ever treated her with such care, not even Li Shuhua.
Outside the window, the weather suddenly changed, and the rain pounded against the glass, making a rustling sound that pulled her back to reality. "It's raining?" Looking at the swaying branches outside the window, she hurriedly ran to the balcony and closed the window tightly.
The wind was strong outside, and the study window was directly facing the wind, letting in a few raindrops. Lin Yue picked up a rag and carefully wiped the windowsill and floor. She couldn't help but recall what she had unintentionally seen when she first stepped into this place. That seemingly aloof and indifferent person, who was not interested in women, actually looked at such embarrassing things. She couldn't help but chuckle to herself.
After wiping it clean, she didn't rush to leave, but leisurely strolled around the study. The bookshelves were full of books, and the desk was neatly arranged. Last time, she hadn't taken a close look at his study, but this time, because her feelings for him had changed, she was even more curious about everything about him.
She walked to the desk, plopped down, and flipped through the books he often read. She recognized the words in the books, but they seemed quite unfamiliar when read together. She quickly closed the book, afraid that the dense text would hypnotize her.
She was like a mischievous little monkey, touching and looking around. When she opened the drawer, she found a beautiful blue brocade box lying inside.
Driven by intense curiosity, Lin Yue slowly opened the exquisite box, where a diamond ring lay quietly.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Lin Yue exclaimed happily. "Could this be a gift he specially prepared for me?" An irrepressible joy welled up in her heart.
She carefully took out the ring and examined it closely under the bright light. The diamond's cut was perfect, radiating a dazzling brilliance that almost blinded her.
At this moment, the three letters "MWN" inside the ring caught her attention. "What does this mean? Is it an initials of someone's name?" Lin Yue squinted and repeatedly turned the ring over to examine it.
Her name had two characters, so it was clear the ring wasn't made specifically for her. Thinking about this, she couldn't help but laugh at herself, finding the fleeting expectation she had just felt ridiculous.
It's perfectly normal for a man as outstanding as Song Yunzheng to have had a few romantic relationships. But for some reason, just thinking about how he once carefully selected rings for other women fills me with a mix of emotions—awkward, sour. It's as if an invisible hand is gripping my heart, making it hard to breathe.
Just as she was about to put the ring back in its place, the study door suddenly opened. "What are you doing?"
