After a while, Li Ruo slowly shifted her gaze.
She carefully observed the man beside her.
She originally thought that Wen Huaiyan wouldn't come.
They might even kick her out of the villa.
So, when did he arrive, and how much of his past experiences have we heard about?
After getting out of the car, the two remained silent.
As soon as he entered, Wen Huaiyan spoke.
I'm hungry.
It was his usual cold tone, completely different from the one who had called him "baby" just now.
Li Ruo hurriedly put her coat away and said respectfully.
"good."
She went into the kitchen and started working quickly and efficiently.
When she came out, Wen Huaiyan had changed into a beige pajamas. His soft hair lay flat on his back, revealing a flawless face.
She quickly looked away and put the bowl and chopsticks down.
"I've cooked noodles for you."
It even laid an egg.
The small restaurant was quiet. Wen Huaiyan ate at a leisurely pace, while Li Ruo kept him company.
As time went on, Li Ruo would hand Wen Huaiyan a glass of water or something.
She had expected Wen Huaiyan to say something, but when the meal ended, he only coldly uttered two words.
"sleep."
Wen Huaiyan remained silent about what happened last night and tonight.
Li Ruo nestled obediently in Wen Huaiyan's arms, feeling the warmth emanating from him.
At that moment, the temperatures overlapped, and she remembered the moment he grabbed her hand at the banquet.
In her previous life, Li Ruo felt that Wen Huaiyan was violent, ruthless, unpredictable, difficult to serve, and unfathomable.
But to this day, Li Ruo feels that Wen Huaiyan is the purest and warmest person.
Compared to people like Li Rao and Wen Changfeng who only know how to talk, Wen Huaiyan is practically a god.
Especially that moment tonight, every time Li Ruo thinks about it, she feels a surge of emotion.
"I'm sorry about yesterday."
A dull sound fell from above, and Li Ruo, who was deep in thought, paused and looked up in disbelief.
She looked at the other person's chin and asked in surprise.
"What did you say?"
Wen Huaiyan let out a long sigh of relief and didn't respond.
Was Wen Huaiyan apologizing to her just now?
Will Wen Huaiyan apologize?
The amount of information was too much for Li Ruo to process all at once.
She secretly pinched her thigh, and a tingling sensation immediately swept through her body.
It's not a dream.
"Why are you apologizing to me?"
"Li Ruo, you're asking too many questions."
He was clearly the one apologizing, yet he acted superior.
Li Ruo muttered something to herself, then reached out and hugged the person in front of her tightly.
"Although I don't know why you came today, thank you, Mr. Wen."
Time passed slowly, and the room was filled with the sound of even breathing.
Wen Huaiyan felt the softness in his arms and gradually pulled the other person closer.
Wen Huaiyan lost control last night.
In fact, Wen Huaiyan had sensed the changes in himself during this period.
So he started dating other women, trying to figure out what hormones were causing his desire for a woman.
Or is it only with Li Ruo?
It was really boring to be around those women. Whenever they asked if his new dress was pretty, Wen Huaiyan would always think that Li Ruo would look quite cute in it.
It was Wen Huaiyan who intentionally spread the news that Li Ruo knew about his affairs with those women.
He wanted to tease her, to see her jealous and sour look, to see her pitiful appearance as she begged him not to talk to others.
But she was too calm.
This feeling of not having complete control over her made him very uncomfortable.
But—Wen Huaiyan suddenly realized that there seemed to be a big problem with him.
Over time, he was always alone.
It felt rather strange to suddenly have someone else beside me.
Suddenly, the person in front of me turned over.
"Mr. Wen—"
A soft, sweet voice rang out, carrying a hint of drowsiness.
Wen Huaiyan responded indifferently, "Hmm?"
"You know what? The moment you appeared tonight, I truly decided I'd be your dog for life..."
Li Ruo was clearly talking in her sleep, her words were indistinct and unclear.
But it was precisely this one sentence that, like a small knife, cut a gash in Wen Huaiyan's heart.
Then, a strong wind rushed in, stirring up ripples in his calm heart.
Something seems to have changed quietly.
...
When Li Ruo woke up the next day, Wen Huaiyan had already left.
She glanced at the time; it was already noon.
"not good!"
She let out a soft gasp and quickly dressed herself.
As soon as she entered the living room, the housekeeper stopped her and spoke respectfully.
"Mr. Wen said that you are given the day off today, so that you can have a good rest after you get up."
"Miss Li, there's some hangover soup warming up for you in the kitchen."
The huge weight that had been hanging over Li Ruo's heart finally lifted.
She said, "Thank you for your help."
While waiting for the hangover soup, Li Ruo habitually opened her phone and checked today's trending topics.
The screen had barely lit up when more than twenty missed calls came into view.
It was the same number that called.
Li Ruo initially thought it was someone's urgent work matter, but when she answered, it was a familiar voice.
The other party begged for mercy desperately.
"I'm sorry, Li Ruo. What happened before was my fault. I did a lot of things that hurt you. I deserve to die. But please, please ask him to let me and my family go, okay?"
