Sheng Qian told He Weiguo and the others to go back to their respective places and find a place to get together for a meal, while she and Long Yunting cooked at home.
Before leaving, Long Yunting had already prepared a table of dishes, which were kept warm in a pot, ready to be eaten when he returned.
It's getting cold. As soon as Shengqian entered the house, she saw a stove burning, making the room warm and cozy. She felt comfortable as soon as she came in.
"I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful, you even prepared a meal."
"You can eat after washing your hands," Long Yunting said, bringing out the dishes and moving the stove next to Sheng Qian's place.
He's a man, full of energy, he doesn't need this.
Sheng Qian smiled as she accepted the hot soup he served her, took a sip, and felt the warmth spread through her heart.
"Your soup is delicious!"
There's still some in the pot, no rush, drink slowly.
"Did something happen to you in Haicheng?"
“It’s nothing, don’t worry,” Long Yunting said, looking at her without touching his own chopsticks.
After finishing her bowl of soup, Sheng Qian noticed he was still staring at her and simply smiled, "Aren't you hungry?"
"I ate something before I left," Long Yunting said, wanting to get a closer look at Sheng Qian.
Sheng Qian had no choice but to let him watch to his heart's content, and she ate the food he cooked. It seemed that men's cooking skills were innate, and the food he made was just right for her taste.
“I know what happened at home. Grandpa said that it was all thanks to you that no other harm was caused. Qianqian, thank you! But please don’t do these things yourself anymore. I’m very worried about you. How can I feel at ease letting you go out alone if things continue like this?”
He seemed to want to keep Sheng Qian by his side and never let her go anywhere else.
Every time something like this happens, he has this impulse.
Yet he couldn't bear to keep her confined.
His wife was different from other women; she had her own space.
She won't depend on a man just because she's a woman.
This is one of the things that makes him fall for her.
certainly.
Even if Sheng Qian was willing to hide behind him, he would be happy to let her do nothing and stay peacefully by his side.
"This is what I should do. Besides, I didn't do it myself; I had a lot of people around me."
Long Yunting reached out and touched her cheek, her reflection shimmering in his deep black eyes. "You're lying. What about the fact that you only ran away with Hongwen?"
Sheng Qian smiled somewhat awkwardly, "The situation was a bit urgent back then, Ting-ge, can you please stop harping on my little mistakes? I'm back safe and sound, aren't I?"
“Qianqian, you…” He only knows how to tease him when he talks about these things.
"Have you finished eating? I'll clean up," Sheng Qian said, taking his hand away and standing up to tidy up.
"You rest, I'll do it," Long Yunting said helplessly, stopping her from doing so and tidying up the table.
Sheng Qian, thinking that she had traveled a long and tiring journey, told him to tidy up while she went to take a shower.
We'll talk about the rest later.
When Sheng Qian finished washing up, she heard Long Yunting talking outside.
Looking out the window, she saw a tall figure standing outside. She dried her hair and sat down at the table. She saw the documents on the table, glanced at the person outside the window, and then picked up the documents to read.
The above is the allocation document from the Haicheng department.
Sheng Qian only looked at the top picture and didn't pay much attention to the ones below. She pulled out her chair, turned around, and continued drying her hair.
As she was wiping, a large hand covered hers, took her hand, and gently wiped her hands with a towel.
Sheng Qian leaned back in her chair, tilting her head slightly to look at the person carefully drying her hair. As she looked, she reached out and put her arm around his waist. "Is things not going well in Haicheng?"
Long Yunting glanced at the table and said, "There are no obstacles."
"Didn't Yan Shuze cause you any trouble?"
“He can’t touch me now,” Long Yunting was quite confident about this: “There aren’t many people who can touch me right now. But that doesn’t include Yan Shuze, so you don’t need to take him too seriously.”
Sheng Qian chuckled softly, "Brother Ting, you're being a bit too jealous."
"I'm just telling the truth."
“Yes, I know,” Sheng Qian said with a smile. “I don’t value him. I’m just worried about you.”
Long Yunting stopped what he was doing, picked her up, and sat down in a chair. Sheng Qian landed on his lap, and the distance between them instantly closed, their breaths mingling. "Has this Yan Shuze been following you all along?"
Sheng Qian turned around to face him: "This person might also be like me, whose soul returned to this era. I'm not really sure what happened," she only knew that she had been thrown back by the spatial force.
What about Yan Shuze?
No, it should be Yan Che.
He was once a member of the Yan family, but his status was somewhat different from that of Yan Shuze now.
In her previous life, Yan Che possessed formidable abilities, and Sheng Qian inevitably suffered some losses when facing him.
certainly.
Yan Che has suffered quite a bit at her hands.
However, Yan Shuze's combat strength in this life is not impressive.
Perhaps, like her, if one were to return to this era, their abilities would be suppressed.
It needs to recover slowly.
Long Yunting was very concerned about the relationship between Sheng Qian and Yan Shuze.
Because in that life, he had no way to participate in Sheng Qian's life, while Yan Shuze was different; he could always follow in Sheng Qian's footsteps, even if he had ill intentions.
Long Yunting felt an unprecedented sense of regret about the missing part.
