Grandma Xia watched Ning Yuan practicing calligraphy with her husband and sighed inwardly.
These two kids seem to be thinking and thinking from completely different worlds.
Xiao Ning may not necessarily have no feelings for Xiao Nan; they just have different views.
Nan Xiaozi wants something very traditional—a warm bed and family after get off work; his job dictates that his wife has to be more family-oriented.
But Xiao Ning...
The girl's way of thinking was somewhat similar to that of her university tutor when she was young and studying in England, who had given up her beloved aristocratic fiancé to become a battlefield nurse.
They didn't seem to think that love and men were necessary parts of life; they just wanted to pursue their dreams.
But Nan is assertive, and he will do everything in his power to achieve whatever he wants.
This was his instinct as the once fearsome commander "Tai Sui".
Now he wants Xiao Ning.
He is a very smart and capable child.
But he didn't know how to get along with girls, and their marriage lacked any emotional foundation; it was just a business partnership.
He simply and habitually treated Xiao Ning in the same way he aimed to achieve "strategic and tactical" goals.
But love isn't like that...
Miss Xia sighed, hoping that the two children would eventually reach an agreement, be tolerant and compromise with each other, and that they were a well-matched couple.
Ning Yuan noticed that, unusually, Grandma Xia didn't rush her to leave.
It was already 10:30, and Tang Lao was struggling to stay awake. Ning Yuan couldn't bear to see the two elderly people uncomfortable.
She left on her own, lingering as she returned to her room.
Under the yellow light, Rong Zhaonan was still sitting at his desk looking at some documents. The file on the desk was labeled "Top Secret".
Seeing her return, he didn't even look up, and said indifferently, "Go take a shower, the water is warming up on the stove, get some rest early."
Ning Yuan felt as if she was being told, "Pig, wash yourself clean so we can slaughter you later."
"Fine." She gritted her teeth and decided to take it or leave it.
She's someone who's lived through the open era of later generations and even been married, so why would she be afraid of this virgin? Let's do it!
He's so handsome, she's not losing out if he gives her his virginity!
What's there to be afraid of!
Ning Yuan took a deep breath, turned around, and strode off to the shower room outside with the kettle in her arms.
Watching Ning Yuan's resolute figure as she left with the water jug, Rong Zhaonan couldn't help but chuckle, rubbing his forehead as he let out a soft laugh: "Hehe..."
This silly curly-haired rabbit looks like he's heading to his execution. Does he really look like an executioner?
Rong Zhaonan put down the top-secret file in his hand, looked at the document thoughtfully, and tapped the table lightly with his slender fingertips.
He placed the case file on the table, then put a notebook on top of it, with the words "Top Secret" written on it.
...
After Ning Yuan finished washing her hair and taking a shower, it was almost eleven o'clock.
She lit mosquito coils in the yard and sat under the persimmon tree drying her hair. The starry sky was something she wouldn't see in big cities decades later.
Ahei and Ahbai rubbed against her feet, becoming more and more like dogs. She wondered how Rong Zhaonan had managed to tame these two wild wolves.
She stroked the two furry creatures, her mind elsewhere as she stared at the light in her room.
Is he waiting for her?
Ning Yuan lowered her head to dry her hair, her face flushed. By the time she finished, it was almost midnight.
Cinderella's magic has worn off by now. Well, let's go in and see what the big bad king is planning to do!
She gritted her teeth, got up, and carried the washbasin into the house.
Who would have thought that she would be stunned as soon as she entered the house, (⊙o⊙) uh…
A quiet figure sat on the bed, eyes closed, breathing calmly.
She thought the ruthless, cunning demon king... no, Comrade Rong Zhaonan had actually gone to bed first?!
They've been roommates for a year now, and she knows Rong Zhaonan is in good health; he doesn't even snore.
Therefore, his regular and steady breathing at this moment means that he has entered a deep sleep.
Ning Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, but was also a little puzzled. Wasn't he planning to "kill" her after the college entrance examination?
Is he sleepy and tired tonight, so he's too lazy to touch her and will do it tomorrow or the day after?
When Ning Yuan thought about it, she felt terrible.
It felt like a piglet about to be slaughtered, knowing it was about to be roasted into a suckling pig, but the butcher got drunk and fell asleep next to it?
Now we're stuck waiting to die, that's even more unbearable, it's better to just end it quickly!
Ning Yuan sat at the table in a daze for a while, her gaze falling on the file on the table, and she frowned.
This guy is a retired soldier, how could he just casually throw these classified documents on the table?
They have absolutely no sense of confidentiality!
I need to remind him tomorrow!
Ning Yuan piled all of Rong Zhaonan's police uniforms on top of the case file, using it as a temporary cover.
Although she didn't think any bad guys could possibly escape the two wolves, Ah Hei and Ah Bai, from their little courtyard and steal things.
Ning Yuan looked at the sleeping person on the bed, her mind a jumble of thoughts. She simply turned around, grabbed an enamel mug, drank some water, turned off the light, and went to bed herself.
The secondhand fan, bought from the black market, wobbled and sent out a cool breeze.
She lay there for a while, then couldn't help but quietly glance at the man lying quietly beside her.
The college entrance exam is over, and her most important goal at this stage has been achieved. Finally, she has time... well, to think about her relationship with this man.
Rong Zhaonan slept soundly and quietly, exuding an aura of asceticism.
Even in the dim light, she could still see his perfectly high nose and his well-defined profile.
Young Boss Rong is really handsome...
Sometimes when she saw his high, straight nose, she was so envious that she wanted to touch it.
Moreover, aside from occasional mood swings due to irregular periods, he is actually a very nice person. When he is gentle and kind, it is even more irresistible.
I don't really understand why someone like him would insist on being a real husband and wife with her.
Is it... because he likes her?
Ning Yuan's mood suddenly fluctuated because of this guess.
The next moment, she sighed again, but he had never said he liked her, let alone loved her.
She couldn't help but think back on the year they had spent together, but she still couldn't figure it out.
Ning Yuan couldn't help but yawn sleepily and closed her eyes.
The college entrance exam is over. Since he didn't make a move on her tonight, maybe I should find an opportunity to talk to him tomorrow.
The current Rong Zhaonan is not the same as the powerful Rong of later generations; he is still a young man who acted impulsively.
Just as Ning Yuan was slowly falling asleep and her breathing began to stabilize, the quiet figure beside her opened his deep, dark eyes.
Rong Zhaonan suddenly turned to the side, propped his hand on his forehead, lowered his eyes, and swept his cold and deep gaze across Ning Yuan's quiet face.
He was very pleased that she hadn't touched the top-secret files, or even glanced at them.
She even covered his police uniform over it as a simple form of concealment.
That way, when he takes out his police uniform the next day, he will be able to see the case file hidden underneath.
She's thinking of him, which is good.
A smile flashed in Rong Zhaonan's eyes, and he happily used his slender fingertips to lift the long, curly hair of the girl beside him that was scattered on the pillow.
She has naturally beautiful, glossy curly hair, which she usually wears in two braids so that it's not noticeable.
Now it's scattered, like curled black silk.
With curly hair, a round face, big eyes, and a small mouth, the girl next to him lay in a thin blanket like a porcelain doll.
But she was always a bad sleeper, sprawled out on her back, so when she slept in the big bed, she always tried to stay away from him.
At this moment, the thin blanket was rolled up to her stomach, her waist was half exposed, and even her loose pajama pants were rolled up, revealing her snow-white calves.
The neckline of her simple vest pajamas was slightly open, revealing a small, fair, and delicate mound on her chest.
Rong Zhaonan's eyes deepened. He suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her cheek, then slowly pulled her closer and closer.
The college entrance exam is over... He wants a real wife now.
