Gu Qishen knew that Zhou Zhengye had come to Qianyuan County alone. He had originally wanted to invite Zhou Zhengye to stay at his home, since all the people living in his courtyard were men, so there was nothing inconvenient about it.
But then he thought again. He and his son were already eating with the Han family, and his son relied heavily on the Han family for daily care, which was already a great burden on He Yuhan. If Zhou Zhengye were to move in as well, He Yuhan would feel awkward excluding him, which would make things even more difficult for her. So he didn't invite Zhou Zhengye.
When he saw the wine that Han Yixian brought out while they were eating, and the words of He Yuhan and He Zhenhua made him even more glad that he hadn't asked for it.
He had seen countless people and was very good at reading between the lines. He vaguely sensed that Han Yixian seemed unwilling for Zhou Zhengye and He Yuhan to have much contact, which meant there must be something going on.
Zhou Zhengye was Han Yixian's good brother, and he only became familiar with Zhou Zhengye later. It was best for him not to get involved in their affairs.
The children took their afternoon nap late today, not waking up until after 3 p.m. After they woke up, He Yuhan took them back to the Han family's courtyard and washed some fruit for them.
Since it was the weekend, He Yuhan didn't teach the children but instead spent time playing fun games with them. The yard was filled with the children's laughter.
Zhou Zhengye longed for such a scene and sat in the yard watching the children play games until after four o'clock before leaving.
During this time, Gu Qishen also secretly observed Zhou Zhengye and was surprised to find that Zhou Zhengye's gaze kept following He Yuhan. He felt as if he had discovered a secret.
No wonder Han Yixian was so nervous; it turns out he was on guard against Zhou Zhengye.
He knew that Zhou Zhengye had known He Yuhan for a long time, but he didn't know if there was anything between them. However, Zhou Zhengye was now married, and it would be inappropriate for him to have feelings for He Yuhan again.
Although he liked He Yuhan, he would keep it to himself and would never break up her and Han Yixian's family. He still had that bottom line.
As for what Zhou Zhengye was thinking, that remains to be seen. It seems he'll have to be careful dealing with Zhou Zhengye from now on. He doesn't want anyone to disrupt the current harmony.
After Zhou Zhengye left, Han Yixian felt much more relaxed. This feeling made him smile bitterly to himself. When did things get to this point between him and Zhou Zhengye, requiring him to be wary of the other?
He knew he could no longer interact with Zhou Zhengye without any reservations. He would still treat Zhou Zhengye as a brother, but he would also be wary of him.
He sensed a significant change in Zhou Zhengye, which gave him a bad feeling. But no matter what, he wouldn't allow anyone to ruin his happiness.
He Yuhan was also unhappy that Zhou Zhengye had come to work in Qianyuan County and even served as a leader in the machinery equipment factory. As the technical advisor of the machinery equipment factory, she would inevitably have to deal with Zhou Zhengye in the future, which made her very unhappy.
However, work is work, and she won't let her personal emotions affect her work. Once the machinery factory's products are more mature, she won't need to go there so often anymore. She can simply design new products as needed.
She would try to avoid Zhou Zhengye in the future. It wasn't because she had any prejudice or bad thoughts about Zhou Zhengye, but simply because she couldn't face him without any reservations.
That night, after He Yuhan put the child to sleep, Han Yixian pulled her back to bed. Han Yixian was very passionate that night, as if he wanted to meld He Yuhan into his body, and only stopped when He Yuhan was exhausted.
He Yuhan also sensed that Han Yixian was acting strangely, but she was too tired to ask him what was wrong.
Han Yixian looked at his wife, who was so exhausted that she had fallen into a deep sleep, and felt a pang of self-reproach. He felt a sense of insecurity and anxiety.
He knew his wife was devoted to him, but he was always afraid of betraying He Yuhan's deep affection. He never had enough confidence in front of He Yuhan, always afraid he wouldn't do enough.
He often followed He Yuhan into the space and learned many things he couldn't have imagined before. It made him realize that this world is full of wonders.
He knew his wife wasn't deliberately hiding anything, which made him feel as if she didn't belong here, but rather to another world. It was as if she might return to her original world at any moment.
Therefore, he wanted to use a dense net of love to trap his wife, so that she could never escape and could never leave him.
Now he has a stronger sense of crisis. He needs to pamper his wife even more, preferably to the point that no one else can replace him, so that his wife can never leave him.
In the following days, He Yuhan did indeed notice the change in her husband. He was more gentle and doting towards her than before, often taking the initiative to do the housework, and even cooking with her.
They would constantly flaunt their affection in public, but in private they would often tease her and make it difficult for her to get out of bed. This was a sweet burden for her.
She didn't know what had triggered her husband to act this way, but she felt she should find out.
Before Han Yixian could make any move in bed that night, He Yuhan pinned him down. He Yuhan's sudden action startled Han Yixian.
He Yuhan poked Han Yixian's chest and said, "Tell me honestly, what's wrong with you lately?"
Han Yi blinked innocently and asked, "What? What happened?"
He Yuhan sneered and said, "Still pretending with me? Hurry up and confess honestly, or you'll be treated leniently and severely for resisting."
Han Yixian knew his wife was very sensitive, but how could he possibly voice his thoughts?
He flipped over and pinned He Yuhan beneath him, saying, "I just feel like I wasn't good enough to you before, so I'll treat you even better from now on. I'll make sure you can never leave me."
He Yuhan pushed against Han Yixian's chest and said, "Have you been through something lately? There's something clearly wrong with you. You've been so good to me before, why are you going to be even better to me? Aren't you afraid I'll take this for granted?"
Han Yixian's eyes gleamed with mischief as he looked at his wife beneath him, her jade-like face flushed with an alluring blush. This beautiful girl belonged to him; she was the wife he would spend his life with, the mother of his children.
Now a mother, this girl still acts like a young girl, occasionally showing her lively side in front of him. The more you look at her, the more adorable she becomes, stirring a gentle warmth in your heart.
Han Yixian kissed He Yuhan's red lips deeply and said, "I do hope you'll take this for granted. But will you?"
He Yuhan pouted and said, "Ugh, you've said both, how am I supposed to say it? Should I say I can, or say I can't?"
You haven't answered my question yet, don't try to change the subject.
Han Yixian said, "I'm not changing the subject. What I just said was from the bottom of my heart. You're so wonderful and have brought me happiness. No amount of kindness is too much for me."
After learning about Zhengye's situation, I realized how fortunate I am. All of this is thanks to you. Shouldn't I treat you even better?
