Chapter 011 Look, are you crying?
The current He An is completely different from the unkind, overbearing male protagonist in the original book. He is sentimental and forceful kisses at every turn, catching Ruan Qinghuan off guard.
The noise in the yard continued, but Ruan Qinghuan's brain froze.
Just as Ruan Qinghuan fell into self-reflection, He An took her hand and walked out.
Seeing this, Xia Lian stood behind Ruan Qinghuan angrily, secretly complaining that Liu Yueru changed her expression faster than turning the pages of a book.
Liu Yueru also put on a gentle and graceful look, holding the tray in her own hands, and walked up to the two of them with a smile: "Brother He, Miss Ruan, this is the sweet soup I cooked, and I brought it specially for you to taste."
Brother He?
Miss Ruan?
Although Ruan Qinghuan said that he didn't want to argue with her, he really admired Liu Yueru's intelligence. Did she really think He'an was a fool who couldn't walk when he saw a woman?
In order to satisfy his momentary desire for verbal pleasure, he revealed his own little thoughts.
Ruan Qinghuan originally wanted to give her a step, but before she could let Xia Lian take the soup bowl from her hand, she heard He An coldly say, "Miss Liu, the Prime Minister's Mansion has its own rules. You are a guest, so it is better for you to stay in the guest room on weekdays."
"Also, there are people in the Prime Minister's Mansion who will take care of the cooking and serving of tea. You don't need to do it yourself." He then looked at Ruan Qinghuan and said, "My wife always likes to be quiet. Don't disturb her when she has nothing to do."
Liu Yueru: “…”
Ruan Qinghuan: “…”
Liu Yueru didn't expect him to be so blunt. He'an and the eldest brother had a life-and-death friendship, and he was always polite to her in the past. His behavior today made Liu Yueru's eyes tear up.
"It's Yueru who is ignorant and has put Brother He in a difficult position."
Look, are you crying?
Ruan Qinghuan thought He'an would at least say a few words of comfort, but he once again saw his straight male characteristics: "In the future, you can call her sister-in-law, or young lady, so that there is a difference between the host and the guest, and it will be polite."
Even though Liu Yueru was unwilling, she still bowed: "Yueru understands."
Watching Liu Yueru walk out of the Banyue Gate, Ruan Qinghuan suddenly felt a little emotional. If the original owner had not acted impulsively at the beginning, how could she have fallen into the hands of Liu Yueru, this green tea girl.
The hot water was ready, and Ruan Qinghuan was still sitting at the table reading a book. Although he yawned one after another, he still forced his eyelids open.
"Madam, aren't you going to take a bath?"
"My Lord, please come first, my Lord, please come first..."
He'an went to the bathroom. Ruan Qinghuan slammed the book in her hand on the table, feeling frustrated and helpless. She really didn't expect that He'an would actually stay in Changchun Garden.
Xia Lian brought the two people's simple clothes with a smile, and glanced at Ruan Qinghuan meaningfully: "I wish the young lady and the master a good sleep."
Anmian Eran bit very hard, but Ruan Qinghuan couldn't explain it.
Xia Lian is a girl who speaks her mind. It would be terrible if she let something slip in front of her mother one day.
The bathroom door opened, Ruan Qinghuan stood up the book in panic, and yawned at a bunch of tadpoles.
The collar of He'an's simple shirt was open, revealing his solid wheat-colored chest. He wiped his hair and looked towards the desk, and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Ruan Qinghuan thought he was greeting her, so she chuckled twice in response.
But then I heard He An's voice in a low voice: "Madam, do you usually read books backwards like this?"
Ruan Qinghuan: “…”
This time I was embarrassed at my grandma's house, and I ran to the bathroom as if escaping: "I'm going to take a shower."
He'an casually picked up the book she was reading. It was a local chronicle, and the page she was reading had the shape of a mountain drawn on it, which looked upside down at first glance.
It can be seen how absent-minded she is.
Seeing that more than half an hour had passed and Ruan Qinghuan still hadn't come out, He An frowned slightly, went to the bathroom door and knocked twice, but there was no response.
I knocked twice more, but there was no response...
His peaceful expression became more serious, a hint of worry flashed across his face, and after a moment of hesitation, he pushed the door open and walked in, quickly stepping over the screen...
Ruan Qinghuan was leaning on the edge of the tub with her eyes closed and breathing shallowly. Her hair floating in the water, covering her soft hair that was about to burst out, swayed slightly with her breathing.
Looking at this scene, He An's Adam's apple rolled and something changed inside his body.
When Ruan Qinghuan woke up, he was already wrapped in a blanket and carried to the bed. The moment he saw He An, his brain exploded. In desperation, he had to wrap himself in the blanket and roll into the bed, lying motionless.
He An: “…”
How could she resist him so much?
He An was unhappy. If he used force, it would be possible to succeed, but he was worried that he would scare her.
He sighed helplessly, turned around and went back to the bathroom.
While soaking in the already cold bathtub, something started to flow out of his nose. He An wiped it clean with a towel and closed his eyes in annoyance.
**
The next morning, Ruan Qinghuan slowly opened her eyes. The sunlight shone into the bed through the curtains. Her misty eyes slightly raised, and the moment she saw He An, she swallowed the yawn that was halfway through, and her mind instantly became clear.
Recalling what happened last night, Ruan Qinghuan suddenly realized that the blanket that wrapped her was gone and she was naked. What made her even more unacceptable was that she was now clinging tightly to He An with her hands and feet all on him.
Fortunately, he was a deep sleeper.
Fortunately, she woke up first.
Feeling awkward, she first pulled the quilt over herself, looked around, and then remembered that Xia Lian had placed the simple clothes on the tray on the table last night.
Then when He An took her out of the bathtub last night, didn’t he see everything?
How could he break into the bathroom privately?
Her heart was beating so hard like a drum that it hurt Ruan Qinghuan's ears. She couldn't just stay there like this. She had to get up and put on her clothes. Otherwise, if He An woke up, how embarrassing it would be for her.
Ruan Qinghuan took three deep breaths and finally calmed down. After getting out of the quilt, a cool feeling swept over her body. She moved the quilt gently with her, but it was quite strenuous for He An to jump over the bed with the quilt.
A leg passed over He'an and stepped on the edge of the bed, followed by a hand. Ruan Qinghuan pursed her lips and stared at He'an nervously. Just when she was about to finish, He'an suddenly opened his eyes...
Ruan Qinghuan was startled, her feet slipped, and she fell directly on him. At the same time, she almost blurted out an explanation: "I just want to get out of bed and put on some clothes."
She regretted it as soon as she finished saying it. She saw He'an's eyes looking down. Ruan Qinghuan got anxious, a bit like an animal in danger, and buried her head directly in He'an's chest.
There was a knock on the door. He An grabbed her waist, put her back on the bed, lifted the quilt and pushed her in.
Ruan Qinghuan felt the warmth of his hand and was so frightened that she dared not move.
Xia Lian knocked twice and when there was no response, she turned around and walked out with the basin of water. She inadvertently saw Liu Yueru and her maid in the next courtyard, looking into Changchun Garden.
In the room, He An's breathing became heavier. He stared at Ruan Qinghuan, who was curled up in the quilt, and said in a hoarse voice, "I don't want to wait any longer."
