--sorry.
Seeing that Wei Min didn't respond, A Ruan's movements seemed to be a little slower than before, and he raised his hand and gestured again.
He lowered his eyes, not even daring to look at the expression in Wei Min's eyes. He placed his left hand on his thigh, fingers clenched together, his underwear wrinkled into a ball, and his right hand repeated the sign language over and over again.
--sorry.
--sorry.
Wei Min had never learned sign language, so when she saw A'ruan raising her hand to make gestures to her, she could not help but stand there in a daze beside the bed, not coming to her senses for a long time.
"What do you mean?" The words got stuck in Wei Min's throat, blocking her throat, and she didn't ask in the end.
Even though he didn't know what he meant by the gesture, Wei Min could guess roughly what it meant just by looking at his current appearance.
A Ruan put his palms together and placed them against his forehead, then immediately clenched them into fists and only extended his little finger to tap his chest a few times.
The movements went from slow and gentle at first to increasingly clumsy and slow, as if a thousand-pound stone was hanging on the wrist, and every time he lifted it, he had to use all his strength.
Originally, the palm was just lightly touching the forehead, but now because of A'ruan's guilt and Wei Min's lack of reaction, the force became heavier.
In the quiet room, the only sound that could be heard was the crisp sound of his hands slapping his forehead.
Just listening to it makes me feel pain.
After Wei Min's initial surprise, he had finally reacted. She grabbed his wrist to stop him from slapping his forehead. After a while, she finally lowered her eyes and asked him in a hoarse voice, "Doesn't it hurt?"
Ah Ruan looked up at Wei Min in surprise, tears hanging on her long eyelashes, about to fall. He stared blankly at his wrist that was being held. His stiff back and waist seemed to have lost support all of a sudden and he went limp. He lowered his eyes and shook his head.
Wei Min let go of his wrist, withdrew his hand, clenched it into a fist and placed it on his knees, then sat on the edge of the bed and said nothing more.
Ah Ruan clenched her hands and looked up at Wei Min. She did not make any more gestures to her, but opened her mouth and silently said to her again:
--sorry.
Wei Min found that the color of A'ruan's lips was very light, but now because his lower lip was bitten and bleeding, it was stained a glaring red.
The husband she had dreamed of marrying turned out to be a mute when they got married... It would be a lie to say that she was not disappointed, but now when Wei Min looked at A'ruan's appearance, she felt nothing at all.
There is no resentment, and there is no big fluctuation in my heart.
Seeing his pale face covered with tear marks and the blood on his lips already dried, Wei Min wanted to raise his hand to touch his bitten and bleeding lips to wipe away his tears, but he retracted his hand halfway.
A Ruan caught a glimpse of her retracting her hand from the corner of his eye, his body trembled slightly, the fingers that were clenching the clothes tightened again and again, and finally he fell down on the bed in dejection and closed his eyes.
Wei Min got up and went out. A Ruan didn't know whether she would come back or not, so he knelt for a while before he reached out to wipe the tears from his face, took off the clothes Wei Min had put on his shoulders, hugged him in silence for a while, and then folded them neatly for her and placed them at the end of the bed.
Since his wife hadn't come back yet, A Ruan didn't dare to sleep, so he sat on the edge of the bed and looked towards the door.
Under the candlelight, his eyes were dim as if covered with a layer of ash, obscuring the flickering candlelight inside. He sat there in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.
Wei Min didn't go out for long before he came back, holding a steaming washbasin with a towel on it.
Seeing A'ruan sitting on the bed in his undershirt, Wei Min was stunned for a moment. He took a stool from the table to put the wash basin and asked him, "Why are you sitting here without any clothes on? Aren't you cold?"
When Ah Ruan saw Wei Min handing her a hot towel that had been wrung out of water, she stood up subconsciously. After taking the towel in a daze, she looked at her helplessly, not realizing what she was going to do.
Seeing A Ruan staring at him blankly, Wei Min couldn't help but smile and suggestively touched his face with his fingers.
Ah Ruan finally reacted, lowered his head and covered his face with a towel, rubbing it a few times to hide his face which quickly turned red after she touched him.
He didn't know how to wipe it properly, and Wei Min was worried that he would make his already bitten lips bleeding worse.
When A Ruan put down the towel, his face looked a little more rosy than before, probably because of the hot towel.
After the foot basin was brought in, Wei Min did not take it out.
After blowing out the candles, the two of them lay flat on the bed in their middle clothes.
Wei Min didn't say anything, and A'ruan had no idea what his wife was planning, so he lay down close to the edge of the bed, trying not to take up too much space.
In the darkness, Ah Ruan, who couldn't sleep, could hear Wei Min's gentle breathing.
Hearing that she was already asleep, A Ruan breathed a sigh of relief and turned over in bed.
He was sleeping close to the edge of the bed, and when he moved, he felt like his back was hanging in the air and he almost fell.
Ah Ruan was startled, but luckily it was a false alarm. He breathed a sigh of relief as if he had survived a disaster.
However, before he could catch his breath, a hand reached out from under the quilt, grasped his waist, and with a slight force, flipped him from the edge of the bed to the inside of the bed.
Ah Ruan: “!”
After Wei Min turned A'ruan over to the bed, he did not loosen his arm around his waist. He tucked the quilt between both of them, pressed his chest against his back, held him in his arms, and prepared to sleep like that.
A Ruan was so shocked that he didn't know how to react. If he could speak, he would have screamed out loud.
Being almost embedded in Wei Min's arms, A'ruan felt that her heart, which had been pounding with fear just now, was beating even faster now.
The sound of his ears beating drums vibrated against his eardrums, so that he could only hear his own drum-like voice.
Wei Min held the person in his arms without saying a word, closing his eyes and pretending to be asleep.
She felt that the person in her arms, who was as stiff as a piece of wood at first, slowly relaxed and lay in her arms. He even adjusted himself into a comfortable position with movements that she didn't notice, and just lay there obediently without moving.
In the dark night, Wei Min's lips slowly curled up, and when A Ruan adjusted his movements and prepared to fall asleep, he called him softly.
"Aruan, can we just live like this?"
Ah Ruan was startled and opened his eyes to look at the person behind him. However, his back was facing Wei Min and he could not see anything. He could only hear her voice ringing softly in his ear:
"Since you've married me, you're my husband, Wei Min. Let's live a good life from now on, okay?"
A Ruan didn't know what expression was on his face. He just felt a sour and painful pain in his heart, and he felt like crying.
Ah Ruan's nose felt sore and hot, and she pursed her lips and nodded. After he finished ordering, he realized that his wife might not be able to see it, so he tentatively reached out and touched Wei Min's hand on his waist, pressed it against his body, and blushed, asking her to hold him tighter.
Wei Min buried his head in the hair behind his neck, smiled silently, and slowly tightened his arms around A Ruan's waist.
"Go to sleep." Wei Min took out a hand to tuck the corner of the quilt for A Ruan, and then fell asleep holding him in his arms.
Seeing that his wife didn't seem to have any plans of that kind tonight, A Ruan slowly let go of the worry that had been hanging in his heart. While he breathed a sigh of relief, he also inexplicably felt a slight sense of loss.
Wei Min and A'ruan had already fallen asleep, but on the other side, Sun was tossing and turning and couldn't sleep well.
Sun was feeling guilty about the two Wei sisters, and she knew her guilt would be exposed after tonight. She couldn't sleep no matter what.
He kept his eyes open and looked at the bed curtains, turning over every once in a while.
Wei Lian was awakened by his torture.
After Wei Min moved to the old house two days ago, Wei Luo lived alone in a room. Now there were only his wife and husband in the inner room. Wei Lian saw that Sun Shi couldn't sleep, so he simply sat up and asked him, "What's wrong?"
Her voice was hoarse and sleepy from being woken up, and it was particularly seductive to hear at night.
If he had heard Wei Lian talk like this at other times, he would have been unable to control himself, but tonight he felt guilty and naturally had no time to pay attention to anything else.
"Alian," Sun sat up, her hands twitching at the quilt on her body nervously. Her tone was a little weaker than usual, and she asked her tentatively, "What do you think of Aruan?"
Wei Lian felt a little puzzled when she heard Sun's question, and couldn't help but frowned, "How would I know what's going on with Ah Ruan? Isn't it enough that Ah Min likes it?"
Sun said timidly, "That's right. He touched the quilt a few times and said, "I think Ah Min likes him very much. Besides, Ah Ruan is really good-looking."
"Tell me," Sun saw that Wei Lian seemed to be sleepy, so she whispered, "If A'ruan was a mute, would A'min regret marrying him?"
After hearing this, Wei Lian's sleepiness immediately disappeared. She sat up from the bed, looked at Sun steadily, and said, "What do you mean by that?"
Wei Lian thought about it and felt that Sun was indeed a little abnormal in the past two days and was particularly easy to talk to. Her heart sank, she grabbed his wrist and asked, "Aruan is a mute? You still know this?"
Thinking about it carefully, she had indeed never heard A Ruan speak. But the other person was a man, and as the eldest sister, she had a different social status than men and women, so it was normal that she didn't hear him speak. But Sun must have known something, otherwise she wouldn't have said that.
Sun's wrist was pinched by Wei Lian and it hurt a little. She frowned and struggled for a while, but seeing Wei Lian's cold face, she didn't dare to move for a while.
"Amin is my biological sister, and you actually let her marry a mute!" Seeing his expression, Wei Lian's hope was shattered. She was furious and shook off Sun's hand, "How can you be so cruel?"
Sun felt wronged. She was right, but when she heard the man beside her accusing her without asking any questions, she yelled in anger, "Yes, I am so cruel. Wei Lian, are you regretting marrying such a vicious husband like me?
I have been married to you for five years. Have you ever really cared about who I am? Have you ever kept me in your heart? All you think about is your sister. Have you ever thought about this family? Have you ever thought about how difficult it is to have this family of mine? ”
"I think A-Ruan is fine. So what if she can't speak and is dumb? In the future, the two of us will live together. Even if Wei Min only studies and doesn't make money, A-Ruan can't complain to Wei Min when she is upset, nor can she blame her. What's wrong with this?"
Sun didn't know what she was thinking about. She looked at her wife in front of her with a bitter smile on her face. Her chest was filled with depression that had been difficult to resolve for many years. She grabbed the pillow behind her and threw it at her, "Don't you just think I'm nagging and annoying, and that I'm not as gentle and virtuous as the eldest son of the Chen family, and you wish I were a mute? Now that your sister has married a mute, why are you dissatisfied again!"
When Wei Lian heard what Sun said, she was stunned and even forgot to dodge the pillow that was thrown at her.
Sun, what nonsense are you talking about?
