After dinner, Tang Yulan went back to Orchid Gardens first.

  Seeing that it was getting late, Su Yicheng asked Luo Xiaoxi, “Shall we go back too?”


  “It’s still early!” Luo Xiaoxi suddenly got excited and said while rubbing her hands, “We hardly get together. How about playing cards?”


  Considering that Luo Xiaoxi needed to hit the sheets early, plus the fact that Shen Yuechuan’s health condition did not allow it, Su Yicheng secretly gave Su Jian’an a hint to reject Luo Xiaoxi. He persuaded Luo Xiaoxi, “If you want to play cards, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. How about going back to rest now?”


  Luo Xiaoxi looked at Su Yicheng leisurely, without saying yes or no. There was no obvious emotion on her delicate and beautiful face.

  After having a baby, Luo Xiaoxi had such a disposition. She was moody and unpredictable. Su Yicheng had no choice but to coax her.

  “It’s only eight o’clock, and it’s still early.” Luo Xiaoxi said stubbornly, “How about we play for just two hours?”


  Although she just asked for two hours, Su Yicheng could not guarantee that she would not insist on playing after two hours.

  “For the baby in your belly, 8 o’clock is not early.” Su Yicheng pointed to Xiangyi and Xiyu. “Look, they’re all asleep.”


  In order to make Su Yicheng’s words more convincing, Su Jian’an asked Aunt Liu to take the two little guys back to the children’s room. Luo Xiaoxi finally did not know how to refute.

  Su Yicheng offered his hand to Luo Xiaoxi. “Let’s go home.”


  She jumped up indignantly and said, “You carry me!”


  Without permitting her to play cards, if he didn’t even agree to the latter request, Luo Xiaoxi was very likely to become an angry little monster.

  Su Yicheng compromised and prepared to carry her on his back. “Come on.”


  However, Luo Xiaoxi did not climb onto his back. She laughed and took his hand. “I’m just kidding! Let’s go home!”


  Su Yicheng was speechless.

  Xiao Yunyun rested her chin on her left hand and saw them off. She couldn’t help sighing. “It’s really hard to imagine.”


  Shen Yuechuan raised his eyebrows. “Imagine what?”


  Xiao Yunyun said, “It seems that my cousin is the one who took the initiative. I can’t imagine that my cousin-in-law kept pursuing my cousin for almost ten years.”


  Shen Yuechuan smiled.

  Xiao Yunyun probably didn’t know that since they got married, Su Yicheng had become a “wife freak”. After Luo Xiaoxi was pregnant, Su Yicheng was more obedient to her. People who didn’t know the road to their marriage generally didn’t believe that Luo Xiaoxi had pursued Su Yicheng for ten years.

  At this time, Aunt Liu suddenly came down and said that Xiyu had suddenly woken up and refused to sleep no matter how hard she coaxed her. She asked Lu Boyan and Su Jian’an to go up and have a look.

  “You go upstairs,” Shen Yuechuan said, “and I’m leaving with Yunyun.”


  “Be careful on the way back.”


  After that, Lu Boyan held Su Jian’an’s hand and went straight upstairs.

  Xiao Yunyun stood up with the help of the armrest of the sofa. Shen Yuechuan was about to hold her, but she just held Shen Yuechuan’s hand and said, “I want to try walking.”


  After sitting in a wheelchair, she realized how precious it was to walk on her feet freely.

  Now, in order to get rid of the wheelchair as soon as possible, she wanted to seize all the opportunities to practice walking.

  Only when her feet regained the ability to walk could she carry out her plan!

  Shen Yuechuan didn’t know Xiao Yunyun’s secret plan, but he didn’t stop her. He just told her, “Be careful. Don’t force yourself.”


  When she managed to walk to the door, there was already a thin layer of sweat on Xiao Yunyun’s forehead.

  She couldn’t hold on any longer. She looked at Shen Yuechuan pitifully and said, “I can’t do it anymore. You pick me up.”


  Shen Yuechuan held her instead of picking her up and said leisurely, “Miss Xiao, since you ask me for help, you should show your sincerity.”


  Xiao Yunyun put her arms around Shen Yuechuan’s neck and pretended to be fierce. “Cousin and Cousin-in-law are upstairs. Believe it or not, I’ll tell them that you bullied me.”


  Shen Yuechuan found it difficult to deal with either of them, let alone both.

  Shen Yuechuan picked her up, ambled through the garden, and walked to the door.

  Xiao Yunyun raised the corners of her lips, and the smile reached her eyes. She suddenly kissed Shen Yuechuan hard on the cheek. “Shen Yuechuan, you’re a fool.”


  But she said so in a satisfied tone.

  Shen Yuechuan lowered his head and took a bite of Xiao Yunyun’s lips with love and hatred as if he wanted to bite the happiness on her lips at the moment.

  Xiao Yunyun nestled in Shen Yuechuan’s arms and inadvertently glanced at the second floor. She saw Su Jian’an standing in front of the window and looking at them with a slight smile.

  It was obvious that Su Jian’an had seen her secretly kiss Shen Yuechuan and the latter bite her.

  Xiao Yunyun felt guilty and subconsciously buried her face in Shen Yuechuan’s arms. “Cousin is upstairs.”


  “Don’t worry.” Shen Yuechuan said indifferently, “She went too far when she was with Boyan.”


  Xiao Yunyun thought for a while and said, “Actually, I envy Cousin and Cousin-in-law very much.”


  Shen Yuechuan glanced at her and raised his eyebrows. “What do you envy about them?”


  “They have a tacit understanding and trust each other!” Xiao Yunyun said, “You should remember Xia Mili more clearly than me, right? My cousin received photos when she was having Xiyu and Xiangyi in her belly, but she didn’t mention it or make a fuss. Because she believed in my cousin-in-law. I can’t imagine how much she trusts Cousin-in-law to remain so calm in adversities.”


  Shen Yuechuan replied in agreement with a “hmm”.

  He couldn’t deny it at all.

  “By the way,” Xiao Yunyun suddenly remembered something and asked, “how is Xia Mili now?”


  “The photos of her entering the hotel with Boyan did not cause a misunderstanding between Jian’an and Boyan, and the truth soon came out. She had to admit that she was just an ordinary classmate of Boyan, and now there are still people making fun of her.” Shen Yuechuan asked the little girl in his arms, “Are you satisfied with this answer?”


  Xiao Yunyun smiled and nodded hard. “Yeah! As long as the results are beneficial to my cousin, I’ll be satisfied!”


  That’s right. She was always so protective of her own cousin!

  Shen Yuechuan smiled helplessly and put Xiao Yunyun on the back seat of the car. Then he got in the car from the other side and asked the driver to drive them home.

  When they got home, Shen Yuechuan carried Xiao Yunyun to the sofa and kissed her on the forehead. “I’ll prepare a bath for you.”


  “Wait a minute.” Xiao Yunyun grabbed Shen Yuechuan’s clothes and said solemnly, “I have something to tell you.”


  She seemed to have considered it for a long while.

  Shen Yuechuan squatted down in front of her with interest and said, “Well, go ahead.”


  Xiao Yunyun’s almond-shaped eyes sparkled with expectation. “In the future, can we always trust each other no matter what happens, just like Cousin and Cousin-in-law?”


  “Fool.” Shen Yuechuan stroked Xiao Yunyun’s hair and smiled helplessly. “We will have different stories.”


  Xiao Yunyun blinked her eyes and asked, “What do you mean?”


  Shen Yuechuan didn’t say anything. He contained Xiao Yunyun’s lips, opened her teeth with the tip of his tongue, and deeply absorbed her sweetness.

  There were many happy people in this world, and everyone was different from each other.

  Why did they have to follow suit?

  They would have their own happiness.

  They had been together for a month. Thanks to Shen Yuechuan’s personal teaching, Xiao Yunyun had already grasped some kissing skills. She wrapped her arms around Shen Yuechuan’s waist and responded to him unhurriedly.

  Well, she seemed to understand what Shen Yuechuan had meant.

  It wasn’t until Xiao Yunyun’s cheeks turned red and she could hardly breathe that Shen Yuechuan let go of her.

  She looked at Shen Yuechuan with a smile. “You just promised me one thing.”


  Shen Yuechuan really couldn’t remember. He raised his eyebrows and asked, “What is it?”


  “You said that we would have our own happiness.” Xiao Yunyun tilted her head and said, “Doesn’t that mean that you’ve promised me happiness?”


  Shen Yuechuan laughed and rubbed her hair. “Yeah, I’ve promised you.”


  “Well, you don’t have to put in a lot of effort.” Xiao Yunyun excitedly gestured. “For me, being with you is the greatest happiness.”


  Something flashed across Shen Yuechuan’s eyes. It disappeared in a flash, so Xiao Yunyun didn’t have time to see it.

  He kissed Xiao Yunyun and said, “I’ll run a bath for you.”


  Xiao Yunyun nodded and looked at Shen Yuechuan’s back with a look of happiness in her eyes.

  She hoped that her life could go on like this!

  At noon the next day, the doorbell rang on time. Xiao Yunyun knew it was Song Jiqing, so she opened the door for him with the remote control.

  Sure enough, the person who came in was Song Jiqing. However, after seeing the things in his hand, Xiao Yunyun’s face changed dramatically……

  Xiao Yunyun kept shrinking to the corner of the sofa. “Dr. Song, what…… is in your hand?”


  “Your medicine.” Song Jiqing said, “I’ve seen the X-ray you took yesterday. You’re recovering very well. It’s time for you to take the medicine again.”


  Xiao Yunyun’s face wrinkled into a ball in pain. “No……”


  Song Jiqing put down the medicine and took out his phone. “Should I call Yuechuan?”


  “No, no!” Xiao Yunyun quickly waved her hand and picked up the bowl of black medicine. “Shen Yuechuan should be very busy. Don’t bother to disturb him.”


  On ordinary days, her trivial affairs had already been troublesome enough for Shen Yuechuan. Shen Yuechuan didn’t have to worry about such an insignificant thing as taking medicine.

  Song Jiqing took back his mobile phone and gave Xiao Yunyun a small bag of plums. “It will mitigate the bitterness. Drink it.”


  Xiao Yunyun picked up the medicine but didn’t drink it. Instead, she raised her head and negotiated with Song Jiqing. “Doctor Song, if I finish the medicine, you have to promise me one thing.”


  Song Jiqing nodded. “You drink it first.”


  Xiao Yunyun held her breath, closed her eyes, and drank the bowl of medicine.

  Putting down the bowl, she hurriedly ate two plums and finally suppressed the bitter and puckery taste in her mouth. Without drinking water, she couldn’t wait to say, “Doctor Song, can you hide my health condition for me?”


  Song Jiqing adjusted the frame of his glasses in confusion. “Who do you want to hide it from? How can I hide it?”


  “Help me hide it from Shen Yuechuan.” Xiao Yunyun said, “I’m going to completely recover soon. Help me tell a lie to Shen Yuechuan that I won’t recover so soon.”


  Song Jiqing became even more confused. “Why?”


  He adjusted her medicine so that Xiao Yunyun would recover faster. It was obviously good news, but why didn’t Xiao Yunyun want Shen Yuechuan to know?

  If it were someone else, Song Jiqing might suspect that the little girl probably wanted her boyfriend to care more about her.

  But it was Xiao Yunyun. Even if she had such an idea, she couldn’t be bothered to do it.

  If Shen Yuechuan didn’t care enough about her, Xiao Yunyun, who didn’t know how to beat around the bush at all, would directly protest.

  Vaguely, Song Xiaoqing felt the same as Su Jian’an—Xiao Yunyun was going to saying something very important.
