She replied calmly:
"That's it!"
Fu Hanzhou felt a little depressed when he saw that she didn't want to talk more. Why was she so unhappy with him?
He patiently asked:
"Do you have a problem with me?"
Qin Ying's eyes flickered, her thoughts seemed to pause for a moment, and she subconsciously shook her head:
"No, Fu...you misunderstood!"
Fu Hanzhou looked at her silently, his dark eyes sparkling in the night.
"Qin Ying, you are my wife. I hope you can tell me whatever dissatisfaction you have. I will definitely correct any mistakes I have made! However, I really can't guess what you are thinking. We are husband and wife, and I hope we can be honest with each other!"
Qin Ying didn't expect Fu Hanzhou to say such a thing, and her feelings became even more complicated.
Fu Hanzhou seems to attach great importance to this marriage.
Still, she didn't know what to say; she had no problem with him.
If she is thinking of living with him, she can remind him to stay away from Gu Ping'an at this time. After all, there should be a sense of distance between men and women.
However, she didn't want to have any contact with Fu Hanzhou in the future, so there was no need to say this. Therefore, she remained silent.
Seeing her like this, Fu Hanzhou frowned and sighed silently.
He was very sure that Qin Ying didn't have him in her heart, and she didn't have much enthusiasm or expectations for their marriage. He felt even more annoyed and no longer had the mood to continue the conversation.
"Go home!"
The dull sound seemed to be squeezed out from the chest.
After saying that, Fu Hanzhou turned around and walked towards home.
Before I had taken a few steps, raindrops as big as beans fell without warning. In a blink of an eye, the rain poured down like strings.
Fu Hanzhou turned around and without thinking too much, he quickly ran back to Qin Ying, grabbed her wrist, and ran to a nearby eaves to shelter from the rain.
When the two ran to the eaves, they were both out of breath. There was silence all around, with only the sound of heavy rain.
There was no one around, and under the narrow roof, the space was cramped, so they inevitably got very close to each other.
Qin Ying could clearly feel the aura emanating from Fu Hanzhou.
It was a mixture of a faint smell of tobacco and male hormones, which lingered at the tip of her nose at first and gradually enveloped her completely.
He was tall and straight, and standing beside her, his powerful aura was like an invisible barrier, wrapping her tightly in it, giving her a feeling of oppression yet inexplicable peace.
Qin Ying's hair was a little messy because she ran too fast just now, and a few strands of wet hair stuck to her cheeks.
Crystal clear water droplets slowly slid down the hair and dripped onto the white neck.
Fu Hanzhou's eyes inadvertently swept across this scene, and his Adam's apple rolled up and down involuntarily.
His eyes became deep, and some kind of hot emotion was surging in his body.
Qin Ying turned her head slightly and met Fu Hanzhou's gaze. She could see the panic and unnaturalness that flashed across his eyes.
Being so close, they could feel each other's warm breath. Her face began to feel slightly hot, her heart trembled, and the ambiguous atmosphere spread rapidly in this small space like a vine.
Qin Ying looked away, not daring to look at him, but she felt that the atmosphere around her became more and more charming at this moment.
Fu Hanzhou seemed to have sensed Qin Ying's discomfort and wanted to break the awkwardness. He looked at the rain in front of him and asked in a deep voice:
"You and Wei Zhuolan seem to get along well?"
Qin Ying was slightly startled, looking at his resolute profile, and said calmly and seriously:
"He and I only communicated about work. I was a bilingual proofreader and he published the article. It was just business dealings, nothing more."
Fu Hanzhou turned his head upon hearing that, his gaze fell on her face, his Adam's apple rolled, and he didn't speak for a long while.
Just when Qin Ying thought he would stop talking, she heard Fu Hanzhou cough lightly, his eyes lowered, as if thinking, his voice stiff and tense, and he spoke slowly:
"I might be too serious and reserved on a daily basis, which makes you afraid to approach me easily. You always feel like you're avoiding me. But you're my wife, and I hope we can be closer and not be so distant!"
When Qin Ying heard this, she was stunned, her eyes full of surprise.
She really didn't expect that Fu Hanzhou, who was usually calm and reserved and didn't easily show his emotions, would say such bluntly.
Her cheeks felt hot instantly and her chest began to beat violently.
Thoughts surged in her mind for a moment, and she opened her mouth but gave up on explaining.
I have always deliberately kept a distance from Fu Hanzhou, but I couldn't tell him the reason. I didn't expect that Fu Hanzhou cared about it so much.
She explained dryly:
"I...I understand, but...for a while, I may not be used to it, but I will try my best."
Fu Hanzhou's expression relaxed, and his gaze returned to her, his eyes gentle:
"Since we are husband and wife, we should be honest with each other. There is no need to hide what we think. There should be no barriers between you and me. So... please believe me, there is nothing wrong between me and Gu Ping'an!"
Qin Ying's heart inexplicably surged with warmth. The feeling of being cared for made the corners of her mouth unconsciously rise. A faint sweetness lingered in her heart, and she responded softly:
"Well, I believe you!"
The rain was still falling, and Qin Ying unconsciously looked at Fu Hanzhou secretly.
Fu Hanzhou is quite cute like this, but why isn’t he like this in the book?
Noticing Qin Ying's peeping, Fu Hanzhou's expression relaxed a little, he felt inexplicably happy, and the lines at the corners of his mouth softened.
After the rain stopped and she returned home, Qin Ying's review efficiency in the evening was very low.
My review status was pretty good a few days ago, but today...
Fu Hanzhou seemed to have influenced her.
Although she always warned herself not to have any intersection with Fu Hanzhou.
But being at the center of this story, she was still affected.
She cannot be indifferent to people who have no ill will towards her.
Xu Jinshu hopes for a harmonious family, and Fu Hanzhou hopes to cultivate a good relationship with him.
The more she thought about it, the more confused her mind became.
Pushing the book aside, he opened his diary and began to record again:
"Fu Hanzhou...Fu Hanzhou...
Today I finally found out why he'd been so angry the past few days. It turns out he wasn't distrusting me, he was actually jealous?!
If it hadn't rained...
It was really unexpected that he analyzed himself in front of me and felt that I was cold to him!
When he spoke, he must have mustered up all his courage. It was not easy for someone as reserved as him to say such words...
But despite this, I... still don't know how to respond. It can be seen that Fu Hanzhou is very responsible and not fickle. He is a good candidate.
But I still feel... that I should stay away from him to avoid any adverse consequences.
I’m a little worried! "
