The moon quietly climbed up the branches, and the whole city was enveloped in its soft light.
Su Man regained consciousness and no longer rejected Lin Ru. That night, Lin Ru moved back to their master bedroom.
In order to avoid his suspicion, Su Man acted extremely naturally towards his presence and did not let him avoid her when she was changing clothes.
However, Lin Ru was very self-aware and turned his back automatically.
Although he behaved very gentlemanly, Su Man felt something was wrong. If they were just dating and were shy, it would be fine, but after being married for so long, why were they so polite?
After turning off the bedside lamp, Su Man lay down on the bed, and Lin Ru, wearing long-sleeved shirt and long pants pajamas, lay down beside her.
Although there was no obstacle between them, Lin Ru automatically kept a distance of one person from Su Man.
Su Man became even more suspicious.
Logically speaking, the two have not had sex since Moman fell ill.
Although her leg has not been healed yet, if two people truly love each other, they will always want to be close to each other.
Su Man doesn't believe that there are gentlemen like Liu Xiahui and Lin Ru. There is only one answer: he has no desire for her.
Could it be because they were siblings? But if he cared so much, why would he keep her by his side?
Thinking of this, Su Man deliberately asked, "Why are you so far away from me?"
"No, I'm just afraid of squeezing you."
As if to confirm his words, after a rustling sound, Lin Ru put his arm under her neck.
"Is this okay?"
"That's more like it." Su Man said angrily, "Just now, I thought you disliked me."
"How could that be?"
Lin Ru bent his arms and hugged her from behind, "Go to bed early."
Su Man put her hand on his forearm, and suddenly, she felt the texture of metal.
Before he could figure out what it was, Lin Ru pulled his hand away. "What's wrong?"
Su Man got up and turned on the bedside lamp. Seeing the watch on his wrist, she laughed, "Why are you wearing a watch to sleep?"
Lin Ru subconsciously touched his obviously old watch and said, "I'm used to it."
At this moment, memories of Mo Man flashed before Su Man's eyes.
It seemed that Lin Ru had been wearing this watch since she met him, and she had hardly ever seen him take it off.
Looking at the badly worn watch strap, Su Man suddenly thought of the photo hidden in Lin Ru’s circle of friends. He was wearing this watch on his wrist when he was blocking the camera.
Su Man felt that she had found a breakthrough. She stopped nagging and just muttered, "Okay, okay, artists all have some quirks anyway."
Hearing her say this, Lin Ru put on a smile again on his face and said softly, "Okay, it's getting late, go to bed."
...
The first ray of light in the morning squeezed through the curtains and came out from the narrow gap.
Lin Ru opened his eyes while lying on the bed. He picked up the alarm clock and checked the time. After closing his eyes briefly, he quietly got out of bed.
Instead of washing up in the bathroom in the bedroom, he went out with his change of clothes.
Almost at the moment Lin Ru walked out of the bedroom, Su Man, who should have been asleep, opened her eyes.
She didn't sleep much that night, mainly because she was worried that her recovered leg might be exposed at any time.
It would be terrible if she fell asleep and accidentally stretched her legs and was discovered by Lin Ru.
Su Man pinched her eyebrows to make her swollen eyes feel better.
When the clock hands pointed to eight o'clock, Lin Ru came in from outside. He stood by the bed and whispered, "Manman, can you get up and have breakfast?"
He still smelled of baked bread. Su Man rubbed her eyes, looking like she had just woken up.
"Ah, you've already made breakfast. What time is it now?"
Lin Ru glanced at his watch and said, "It's already past eight o'clock, get up."
Su Man stretched and stood up by supporting herself on the edge of the bed.
Seeing this, Lin Ru quickly helped her push the wheelchair over and took her to the bathroom to wash up.
-
Since Aunt Wang is not here, breakfast is relatively simple.
Lin Ru put fried eggs and ham in the toasted bread slices, spread mayonnaise on it, and paired it with a cup of heated milk.
Su Man ate nibbles, "Don't you have work today?"
Lin Ru swallowed the bread in his mouth and said, "I have to go to the recording studio to record something later."
"I see."
Su Man sighed, "You can go out to work, but I can only stay at home and be a parasite."
"Nonsense."
Even when scolding, Lin Ru was gentle, "I will never think you are a burden."
Su Man was coaxed into a happier mood, "Then you should go early and come back early."
"Okay, be careful at home alone. If you need anything, call me on the landline."
"I know. The house you've renovated can be turned directly into a rehabilitation center. I won't be in any danger."
Even though Su Man said so, Lin Ru still confirmed it again and again before leaving.
...

Su Man looked down from the window, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Lin Ru leaving in the distance.
She took out her iPad, logged into the forum, and sent a private message to Wuming.
"What else do you know about Lin Ru?"
Su Man waited for a long time in the private message interface, but the other party did not reply.
While waiting, she suddenly thought of Lin Ru's watch.
However, there was no obvious logo on the watch, and she searched for a long time online but couldn't find a similar style.
But Su Man was not discouraged. She found a pen and paper, roughly drew a sketch of the watch, and then found several pictures of similar styles.
