Seeing that Song Lan was clearly distracted, a hint of doting affection flashed in Qin Yanzheng's eyes. In the days since he woke up, his wife had impressed him as a smart, calm, gentle and witty woman, but he never expected that she would have such a lovely side.
—While talking to him, my thoughts wandered off somewhere else!
"What are you thinking about?"
Qin Yanzheng suppressed a laugh and spoke again.
"ah?"
Song Lan snapped out of her reverie and shook her head, feigning composure. "I wasn't thinking about anything. By the way, did you call me because you had something to say?"
"I'm so glad I married such a wonderful wife!"
Originally, it was only out of necessity to marry into the family, and after only three brief encounters, I didn't even know what the other person looked like, let alone understand their temperament and preferences. But unexpectedly, I really married the right person. Could this be the work of fate?
—At the moment when her life was almost ruined, he unexpectedly saved her; when she was driven to the brink by rumors, out of compassion, he agreed to the marriage between the two families, thus bringing about his marriage with her.
To be honest, before he was seriously injured and about to collapse, he thought that his wife, whom he had married, would probably leave the Qin family and remarry after learning of his death.
After all, they were husband and wife in name only, not in reality.
She has absolutely no need to stay by her side.
Even his parents wouldn't want a young girl to spend her life as a widow in their Qin family.
Besides, the concept of widowhood doesn't exist in the new society.
Unexpectedly, Song Lan, his wife, not only did not leave the Qin family to remarry after his accident, but also used her superb medical skills to treat him. At the same time, as his wife and the eldest daughter-in-law of the Qin family, she took on the heavy responsibility of the family, taking care of and educating his younger siblings...
If you were to not dare to be moved by a woman like this, it would be a lie!
And how fortunate we are, especially considering this.
Qin Yanzheng sighed inwardly!
"you……"
Song Lan's expression was clearly a little uncomfortable. She felt her cheeks burning and her heart racing. She wanted to turn around immediately, but she didn't want Qin Yanzheng to overthink it, so she could only pretend to be calm and stand still without moving.
"I'm listening. Just say what you have to say."
A slight smile curved his lips as Qin Yanzheng stared intently at Song Lan, his wife of nearly a year. Her cheeks were flushed, and her peach blossom eyes sparkled, yet there was a hint of evasion in them.
However, upon closer inspection, one will find that her eyes are calm and reserved.
Very restrained; this is the essence that Qin Yanzheng saw through the surface.
"Since you can see, why don't you just tell me?"
Song Lan felt that she couldn't show weakness at this moment. Although they were husband and wife, she and he were not really familiar with each other. If he knew her too well, she might suffer in the future!
Silently cursing in her heart, Song Lan's eyes became unusually clear, giving off a subtle sense of imposing authority.
Qin Yanzheng wanted to laugh, but to show respect, he didn't laugh out loud and chose to back down: "It's my fault. I should have told you as soon as I felt the light."
Upon hearing this, Song Lan blinked lightly, then casually uttered, "Really? If I don't ask, when do you plan to let me know?"
"I didn't intend to hide it from you."
Qin Yanzheng's feelings were a little complicated: "This is the truth, please believe me." He really didn't intend to hide it from her, but before he could say it, she discovered the clues.
Slowly blinking, before Song Lan could speak, Qin Yanzheng said again, "If you think I'm lying to you, I'll accept any punishment you may give me."
Song Lan was stunned for a moment, then realized that her cheeks, which had been gradually cooling down, suddenly heated up again.
Punish him?
Is she really that unreasonable?
"Do you think I enjoy being unreasonable?"
Turning her head away, Song Lan coughed lightly, then shifted her gaze back to the man, her tone light and nonchalant: "Think what you want, I have something to do, you should rest!"
Turning around, Song Lan was about to leave. She needed to be alone. To be honest, being stared at so intently by the man in front of her made her very uncomfortable.
"You're trying to avoid me."
It wasn't a question; Qin Yanzheng used a declarative sentence.
Song Lan paused, her foot still slightly raised: "You're overthinking it."
Why don't you dare look at me?
If he's overthinking things, she should simply meet his gaze.
And what was the result?
He's clearly feeling guilty!
Qin Yanzheng chuckled inwardly. At this moment, Song Lan was facing him sideways. Hearing this, she turned her head, and their eyes met. She said, "What do I have to see?" As soon as she finished speaking, she glared at the man and continued, "You're not a man-eating tiger. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
In that instant as he turned his head, Qin Yanzheng looked at her beautiful, fair swan neck, and at the same time, noticed her delicate collarbone.
Although it's a bit cold now, people are mostly wearing jackets. But today the temperature has risen a bit, so Song Lan is only wearing a white shirt. To avoid feeling stuffy around her neck, she has the top button undone.
So, when she turned to look at Qin Yanzheng, she inadvertently revealed one of her collarbones.
Watching the slender figure disappear into the distance, Qin Yanzheng was stunned: ?
He got roasted...
Not only did she glare at him, but she also confronted him. How did that surprise him so much?
Qin Yanzheng opened his mouth, wanting to call out to Song Lan, wanting to say, "I'm not a man-eating tiger, I'm your husband, I never thought you would be afraid of me, can you stop and let's talk this out?"
Little did he know, the moment Song Lan turned her back to him and looked away, she almost burst out laughing.
"Brother, what did you and sister-in-law talk about? When she came out of your room, she seemed to be trying hard to suppress a laugh."
Qin Boyan entered Qin Yanzheng's room.
"eventful."
Qin Yanzheng glanced at his foolish younger brother indifferently.
“I’m concerned about you, about your relationship with your sister-in-law, so that you don’t offend her without realizing it.”
Qin Boyan's tone was full of "I'm doing this for your own good." After hearing what he said, Qin Yanzheng scoffed and said, "Offend your sister-in-law? I'm not crazy. Besides, she's my wife. Am I out of my mind to upset her?"
Besides, you yourself just said that your sister-in-law was trying not to laugh, which shows that she had the upper hand!
Tell me about it!
Qin Boyan grinned like a lackey as he sat down beside Qin Yanzheng's bed: "What exactly did you and my sister-in-law say that made her gain the upper hand and leave while suppressing her laughter?"
Why should I tell you?
Qin Yanzheng raised an eyebrow.
Qin Boyan shamelessly said, "You're my brother, and I'm your younger brother. Telling me won't hurt you. Just let me have some fun too."
"I think you're asking for trouble!"
With his eyes half-closed, Qin Yanzheng stared directly at his foolish younger brother.
Sensing the danger in his eyes, Qin Boyan was startled at first, then suddenly stood up, his eyes wide open, and after a long while, he managed to squeeze out, "Big brother, you...you can see me now?"
