Chapter 144 Coaxing Her
early morning.
Su Jin yawned as she came down from the second floor. She intended to go to the kitchen to pour herself a glass of hot water, but when she looked up, she saw Xiao Yunfeng sitting on the sofa.
Her heart skipped a beat.
I don't even know what time he got back last night, but he's up so early this morning.
This man seems to have inexhaustible energy.
After calming down, Su Jin noticed that the sunshine was exceptionally nice today.
The sunlight streamed gently through the window, bathing Xiao Yunfeng in a golden glow.
He wasn't wearing a military uniform today, but rather a navy blue sweater, which made his skin look exceptionally fair.
His long legs were crossed, and he leaned lazily against the sofa, his deep eyes fixed on the newspaper in his hand.
Seemingly sensing Su Jin's presence, she subconsciously raised her head.
Their eyes met.
Su Jin suddenly snapped back to her senses, a fleeting expression of unease crossing her face.
"Good morning, Uncle."
They greeted each other politely.
"Get up." Xiao Yunfeng's voice was as calm and even as ever, but the next second he seemed to think of something, and a stiff upward curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Su Jin's arms instantly broke out in goosebumps.
Was he just...laughing?
That's terrifying.
At this moment, dozens of ominous premonitions had already surfaced in his mind.
Standing still, not even knowing which leg to step with first?
Xiao Yunfeng: "What are you doing standing there?"
"Heh, hehe." Su Jin really didn't know how to answer, so she moved to the living room like a puppet and stood obediently in front of him.
I checked in my mind again and again to make sure that she had stayed at home for the past two days and hadn't gone out to cause trouble.
Xiao Yunfeng felt a slight soreness at the corner of his mouth, and then he remembered the corners of his mouth that he had deliberately turned up.
Seeing Su Jin's reserved demeanor, I am even more certain that Li Honghai's analysis is correct.
This girl is genuinely afraid of him.
"Sit down."
Su Jin sat obediently on the sofa, her head almost touching her chest.
Xiao Yunfeng couldn't help but sigh.
So he's really that scary?
"I didn't even ask you if you've gotten used to being back."
He clearly wanted to express concern, but the tone of his voice made it sound like a superior caring for a subordinate.
Su Jin: "It's alright."
Xiao Yunfeng raised an eyebrow. "Is 'okay' a matter of getting used to it or not?"
This ambiguous answer prevented him from accurately assessing her situation.
Su Jin noticed his displeasure and quickly forced a smile, "It's a habit."
Xiao Yunfeng, unsuspecting, nodded. "You'll get used to it. If you need anything, just have Aunt Wu buy it for you. If you want to go out for a stroll, Wang Liang can drive you. If you have any other needs, you can tell me."
He's been so good to her, always doing what she wants. She should be able to gradually accept this family again, right?
Su Jin felt a chill run down her spine. His soft voice felt like a sharp weapon hanging over her head, ready to strike at any moment.
Fortunately, Wu Ma came out of her room at this moment and was extremely surprised to see the two of them in the living room.
"Brigadier General Xiao, Xiao Jin, why are you both up so early?"
If it weren't for the clock next to her showing a little past six, she would have wondered if she had overslept.
"Aunt Wu, just make something simple for breakfast. I'll take Xiao Jin out for a walk later."
Xiao Yunfeng's words were like a bolt from the blue for Su Jin.
