Free Web NovelChapter 495: Chapter 491: Touched
Gu Jiaojiao craved Leng Yuan’s hands, his waist, his legs, his face, his intellect—in short, everything about him. But what was it, specifically?
Gu Jiaojiao felt that even a single strand of hair on Leng Yuan’s body was unlike any other.
Leng Yuan fell completely silent.
He had really underestimated his wife. He originally thought she was just into his looks, but it turned out she was into everything under his clothes.
All the little pangs of bitterness, the minor insecurities, and the slight jealousy he’d been feeling suddenly vanished in an instant.
Gu Jiaojiao leaned in, blinking her glistening eyes, and asked in a soft voice, "Were you so moved by my confession just now that you can’t even handle it? If so, blink for me."
Gu Jiaojiao was on the kang bed while Leng Yuan sat at the desk next to it. As Gu Jiaojiao leaned over, a few wavy strands of her hair cascaded down close to Leng Yuan’s face. He could smell the fresh scent from her hair.
It was soap beans and a faint smell of Chinese medicine, warm and exceptionally pleasant.
Leng Yuan reached out, twirling a strand of her hair around his finger. He replied to Gu Jiaojiao in a calm tone, "I’m moved."
"Very moved. My wife’s confession is... one of a kind."
’It was a type of confession he’d never heard before.’
Gu Jiaojiao rolled her eyes. Leng Yuan didn’t look moved at all.
’As the first person to hear such a domineering declaration, how could he be so calm? She remembered seeing fan comments screaming in the review sections of books she’d read.’
Just as Gu Jiaojiao was about to voice her dissatisfaction, there was a knock on the courtyard gate. Before Leng Yuan could go out, Sweet Girl had already scampered over to open it.
It was Chen JianShe. Sweet Girl, already very familiar with him, immediately stepped aside to let him pass.
Chen JianShe took out two pieces of fruit candy and handed them to Sweet Girl, telling her to share them with Xiao Yang.
Sweet Girl thanked him obediently, led Chen JianShe to the outside of the room, and then went back to her own room.
Chen JianShe didn’t come in right away. Instead, he called out from the doorway.
"Brother Leng, Sister-in-law."
Seeing Chen JianShe, Gu Jiaojiao snatched her hair back from Leng Yuan’s hand without a moment’s hesitation.
Having lost his little toy, the warmth in Leng Yuan’s expression faded a bit.
"Come in!"
Only then did Chen JianShe walk in. He saw one of them sitting on the kang bed and the other at the desk. Although they were doing their own things, the scene felt incredibly warm and cozy.
He stomped his feet and said with a smile,
"Brother Leng, Sister-in-law, there’s a lively wedding going on outside! How come you two aren’t watching?"
Leng Yuan’s gaze turned icy as he glared at Chen JianShe.
’Why the hell did he have to bring up that guy Yun Hao?’
Chen JianShe met the glare with a smile, as if telling Brother Leng not to thank him too much.
’He knew that Yun Hao had been trying to pester his sister-in-law. By reminding Gu Jiaojiao like this, he hoped she would completely give up on that man.’
Gu Jiaojiao hadn’t even remembered that Yun Hao was getting married today. She glanced at the heavy snow outside, then said, "Getting married in a blizzard like this? Is that person sick in the head or something?"
Outside, the ground was frozen and snow was swirling everywhere. On a day this cold, everyone wanted nothing more than to hide in their rooms and not go out. For someone to choose to get married in this kind of weather—they weren’t just sick, they were seriously sick.
Neither Chen JianShe nor Leng Yuan said a word.
Chen JianShe was a bit dumbfounded, while Leng Yuan’s lips curved into a smile, his expression completely relaxed.
After a moment, Chen JianShe finally asked a question.
"Sister-in-law, you mean you didn’t know today was the day Yun Hao is getting married?"
’Yun Hao is getting married?’
Gu Jiaojiao paused in the middle of cracking a melon seed, her eyes filled with confusion.
"Yun Zhiqing’s wedding is today?"
