Ye Ruohuan knew Fu Yijian's "animal nature" very well. When she met Fu Yijian's gaze, she knew what he was planning.
So Ye Ruohuan took advantage of the fact that Fu Yijian hadn't lowered his head again, and she exerted a little force with her hands to break free from Fu Yijian's restraints.
She looked at Fu Yijian with a slightly protesting look, "We're still in the car, if someone takes a picture of us..."
Fu Yijian ignored her resistance, and stroked her moist red lips with his warm, dry fingertips. He said in a magnetic and sexy voice, "When we first met... I wanted to do this to you."
Ye Ruohuan was stunned for a moment, and after realizing what Fu Yijian meant, her face turned even redder. She glared at him and said angrily, "Fu Yijian, you are really... a hooligan!"
Ye Ruohuan deliberately lowered his voice and spoke the last two words in a muffled voice.
How dare this person say anything?
There was some dissatisfaction in Ye Ruohuan's eyes.
Fu Yijian heard it, lowered his head and smiled, looking at Ye Ruohuan with lazy eyes, as if he wanted to take her soul away.
Ye Ruohuan gritted her teeth, pushed away Fu Yijian who was pressing on her, and walked into the apartment without looking back.
Fu Yijian watched her walk into the apartment with warm eyes, and then waited until the lights on a certain floor before steering away.
After Ye Ruohuan coaxed Ye Shuo to sleep, she turned on the desk lamp. The moment she picked up the paintbrush, she remembered Fu Yijian's words - "You shouldn't waste your talent on meaningless things."
Her thick eyelashes trembled, and the paintbrush in her hand was reluctant to fall.
Fu Yijian was right. She entered the industry later than many designers and had no resources, no connections, and no experience.
If she wanted to accumulate these things bit by bit through her own efforts, I'm afraid she wouldn't know how long it would take for her to finish.
Perhaps, she should listen to Fu Yijian's advice.
Ye Ruohuan sat in a comfortable soft chair, hugging her legs, thinking about something absentmindedly.
Suddenly, the cell phone rang.
She took the phone and saw that she was really thinking about Cao Cao, and then Cao Cao called her.
"Hello?"
A soft female voice came from his ears. Fu Yijian put his hands in his trouser pockets, standing on the balcony looking at the full moon hanging in the sky.
Fu Yijian looked at the alarm clock on the bedside table and found that it was already very late.
He frowned slightly and asked, "Are you still asleep?"
Ye Ruohuan stroked her hair and asked, "What about you?"
"I was thinking about you, so I couldn't sleep." Fu Yijian answered honestly.
This was absolutely true. He took several cold showers tonight, but the fire in his heart was still not extinguished.
When Ye Ruohuan heard his hoarse and magnetic voice, her clean face turned slightly red and she scolded him, "What a fake and indecent person!"
Fu Yijian on the other end of the phone seemed to be able to imagine Ye Ruohuan's expression at this moment, and he smiled softly.
The two were silent for a while, and Ye Ruohuan spoke first: "Fu Yijian, I...I want to ask you for help with something."
Fu Yijian thought he was hallucinating. He clenched his phone tightly, suppressed his inner excitement, and tried his best to speak in a calm voice: "Go ahead."
Ye Ruohuan got Fu Yijian's affirmative answer, and she slowly said: "I want to participate in many competitions, many competitions, I don't want to be unknown."
She also wants her work to be known to the whole world and bring joy and happiness to people all over the world.
Fu Yijian's throat smoothed and he didn't speak for a long time. His eyes flickered slightly when he saw Ye Ruohuan speaking her true feelings in front of him so unscrupulously.
He said to the girl on the other end of the phone encouragingly, "Okay, leave the competition to me, and you are responsible for preparing your work well."
Ye Ruohuan was surprised by Fu Yijian's calm reaction and asked, "Do you know what I want?"
"I know." Fu Yijian looked at the late autumn night view outside and said in a low and reassuring voice, "I will help you collect information about the competition. Just go and participate with confidence. The result will be determined by your efforts."
Hearing his words, Ye Ruohuan's eyes became slightly moist.
Fu Yijian really understands her.
He was no longer as overbearing as before, not caring about her thoughts and doing things completely according to his own wishes.
She was no longer as stubborn as before, insisting on shouldering everything alone and refusing to share the burden with him.
They experienced that separation, and after reuniting, they understood each other's inner needs better.
They all learned to make concessions in love, share responsibilities, and walk hand in hand together.
"Fu Yijian, thank you."
It was not until now that she understood the need to give in. She was very grateful to Fu Yijian for telling her what he had said, allowing her to understand and wake up.
From now on, no matter what happens, she will not endure it alone, because she still has him. He is always behind her, supporting her silently.
Ye Ruohuan covered her lips and a choked voice came out from the microphone.
When Fu Yijian heard the intermittent sobbing sounds, his frown deepened. He held the phone tightly, waiting for her to cry for a long time.
After a long time, Fu Yijian spoke to comfort her: "It's late, go to bed quickly. I'll take you to work tomorrow."
Ye Ruohuan replied sullenly: "Yeah."
Then there was a rustling sound from the receiver, and the sound of the desk lamp being turned off. Ye Ruohuan said to the phone, "Good night."
"Good night."
Afterwards, Fu Yijian heard Ye Ruohuan's breathing gradually become steady and she became calmer.
He once again said to the woman who was sleeping very soundly on the other end of the phone: "Good night, Huanhuan."
Ye Ruohuan seemed to have heard it, moved his lips and uttered a "hmm".
At seven o'clock in the morning, the doorbell of Ye Ruhuan's house rang.
Ye Shuo ran to open the door.
He saw Fu Yijian appear at the door in a neat suit with breakfast in his hand, and shouted in surprise: "Brother!"
When Ye Ruohuan heard Ye Shuo's shout, she hurriedly ran out of the room.
Fu Yijian came into the room carrying breakfast, with a boy on his lap. When his eyes met Ye Ruohuan's, he chuckled and said, "Huanhuan, good morning."
Ye Ruohuan was puzzled, and when Ye Shuo saw how sloppy she looked, he said with disdain, "Xiao Ye, you really don't mind being sloppy, do you?"
Ye Ruohuan then realized what was happening and looked down at her pajamas. She quickly ran back to her room and saw herself in the mirror with messy hair, red and swollen eyes, and her pajamas wrinkled into a ball.
She covered her face with regret and cursed herself: Idiot!
It took Ye Ruohuan ten minutes to finally finish messing with himself.
