Song Yingjie looked on for a few seconds and then withdrew his gaze.

At this moment: “Young Master Yingjie.” A maid came in to serve a cup of coffee.

“Shh.” Song Yingjie gave a motion that meant to keep silent and waved to send her away.

The maid saw that Ning Qing was sleeping, and she knew that Young Master Yingjie did not want to wake Madam up. The maid turned and thought, Young Master Ying Jie is really good towards Madam.

…

Lu Shaoming came at 5 to get Ning Qing. He got out of the car, and with a single glance through the windows, he saw that Ning Qing and Song Yingjie were seated side by side.

Ning Qing was still sleeping, and she slept facing sideways with her small head nested on Song Yingjie’s elbow.

Lu Shaoming lifted his eyebrows, and the expression on his face was calm and unbothered. He took big strides with his long legs and walked into the villa.

“Yingjie.” He stood at the side of the table and called out to Song Yingjie.

Song Yingjie lifted his head and spoke in a quiet voice. “Brother Shaoming, you are here. Ning Qing is still sleeping.”

Lu Shaoming’s expression in his eyes was dark. He curled his lips and he suddenly thought that when talking about seniority, Ning Qing was actually Song Yingjie’s sister-in-law, but Ning Qing was similar in age with Song Yingjie.

There were supposed to be in the same age group.

Lu Shaoming went forward, used one large palm to support Ning Qing’s small face, and Ning Qing’s entire body went leaning towards the left. Lu Shaoming bent down his waist and caught her, allowing her to lean in his embrace.

This movement woke Ning Qing up. Her moist eyes were still in a daze, and she looked around in a blur, furrowed her eyebrows, and in a low tone said, “It hurts…”

Lu Shaoming immediately bent down and gently asked, “Where does it hurt?”

As he was talking to Ning Qing, he noticed Song Yingjie stand up in his peripheral vision. Probably because he heard Ning Qing call out in pain, he stood up in a rush. The chair was pushed to the back, leaving a large space.

The floor was covered with high quality carpeting, and it did not make any squeaky noise.

But Lu Shaoming knew that he was overreacting.

Ning Qing press on her own calf with one hand, and did immediately say where it hurts. In a coy voice, she said, “Hubby, my leg is numb, it feels so uncomfortable..”

Lu Shaoming used his two large palms to raise her slim calf up gently, then massaged it bit by bit. “Is it getting a little better?”

“Yes, it’s getting much better. Thank you, Hubby.” Ning Qing smiled sweetly.

Lu Shaoming stood up, held onto her slim arms, and helped her stand up. He then held onto her shoulders and placed her in his embrace. He lifted his head to look towards Song Yingjie. Song Yingjie was numb from his right hand, and the feeling travelled through half of his body. A helper came forward to rub his elbow.

“Yingjie, what happened to you?” Ning Qing still did not know that she had been nesting on his elbow.

Song Yingjie shook his head and said, “Its nothing.”

The helper smiled and said, “Madam, you have slept for almost 2 hours, and you have been resting on Young Master Yingjie’s elbow for the entire time. Young Master Yingjie did not even dare move. He was afraid he would wake you up, and now his body is completely numb.”

“I…” Ning Qing widened her two misty eyes, wanting to speak.

But the man beside her spoke. His tone was warm and plain. She could not discern any emotion in his voice. “Yingjie, are you alright? Two hours is not easy to get through; you should have woken your sister-in-law up.”

Song Yingjie looked at Lu Shaoming. The man’s deep, dark eyes were warm and sharp as he scanned his face. His gaze could uncover everything inside his heart.

Song Yingjie avoided his gaze and channelled his eyes downwards. “I got it.”

Lu Shaoming channelled his gaze towards the helper. His tone was not serious, but it was cold and pure as it brought along the crisp and domineering air of a person of high status. “Madam is pregnant now. Can she perch on the table to sleep for 2 hours? It is fine if Madam is stubborn, but don’t you all know how to advise her to go back to her room to sleep? If she catches a cold, who would take responsibility?”

It was the first time the helper got chided by Lu Shaoming. Lu Shaoming lived delicately. He had his own taste, he did not rely on the helpers, and normally he would not take note of the helpers. He was also normally forgiving towards the helpers, as a true gentleman would be.

It was the first time he had ever chided anyone like this.

The helper was so frightened that her entire body was shaking. She immediately bowed down and admitted to her mistakes saying, “Young Master, it was my fault. I will take note in the future.”

Ning Qing looked at Lu Shaoming in shock. She did not know what was wrong with him today. Why he was making a fuss about nothing? She subtly tugged on the sleeve of his shirt.

Lu Shaoming gave a glance towards Song Yingjie, and gently curled his lips into a smile saying, “Ying Jie, we’re leaving. You work hard on your studies.”

Lu Shaoming held onto Ning Qing as they left.

Song Yingjie stood by the French windows to send off the Bentley with his eyes. At this moment, the voice of old butler rang out in the air. “Young Master Yingjie, there are some relationships that cannot be gained in this world. You have to leave it inside your heart and forget about it slowly. Your statuses are sensitive, and Madam’s path to her current situation was not easy. Don’t create more trouble for her.”

Song Yingjie was silent for a few seconds and he nodded saying, “Okay.”

…

Inside the Bentley, Ning Qing gave a shifty look towards the man who was driving. She fluttered her long lashes and opened her mouth to ask,” Shaoming, what was wrong with you just now? I was tired, so I slept at the desk for a while. I did not think I would oversleep; why would you blame the helper?”

Lu Shaoming lifted his handsome eyebrows and gave her a casual glance with his dark eyes as he said “Ning Qing, you said that your legs were numb. I felt bad for you, so I was in a bad mood. Is that not ok?”

Ning Qing laughed for a moment. She bit on her pink bottom-lip and was displeased with him as she said, “What’s wrong lately? How come you are so good with hypocritical flattery?”

Lu Shaoming stretched out his hand to pinch her small supple face and said, “Ning Qing, when can you grow up? Would you still be this young when I get older?”

Ning Qing’s small face bloomed like a flower. She turned sideways and hugged the man’s right shoulder, and pecked him like a bird on his handsome face. “Hubby, did you only know after marrying me, how much you are earning from this? Men all love to bring along young beautiful girls when they go out for business interactions. I will never embarrass you. How come you still want me to grow older so quickly? People are all jealous of you.”

Lu Shaoming lowered his gaze and kissed her forehead. His voice was low and deep as he said, “I don’t want others to be jealous of me. I only want to hide you away secretly.”

Ning Qing was gurgling with vibrant laughter. She curled her fingers into a fist and hit him. “Lu Shaoming, why are you hiding me? Others can see me but not touch me. I only belong to you.”

Lu Shaoming’s right palm went into her small soft hand and he interlocked his hand with hers. He felt it was not enough, and he kissed her fingertips. Ning Qing withdrew her hand and sat up straight. “Drive seriously.”

Lu Shaoming saw the shyness in her actions and looked sideways to look outside the window. “Keep your distance from Yingjie in the future. Yingjie is 20 this year. He is at an age where he is easily attracted to girls,” he said slowly and casually.

Ning Qing almost choked on her own saliva, and she stared with her huge eyes. She could not believe his words, and she responded, “Lu Shaoming, what’s going through your head? I am Yingjie’s sister-in-law. I see him as naughty rascal that has yet to grow up.”

Lu Shaoming knew how she thought. She was his wife, so she treated herself naturally as an elder, but she had omitted that she was only 21.

He did not like this topic too much, and his handsome eyebrows were scrunched up in disapproval. He turned to look at her, and the strongly defined arcs of the man were highlighted perfectly by the setting sun. “Wifey, be good. Listen to me; don’t make me angry.”

“I got it. Hubby makes sense, so I will listen to Hubby.” Ning Qing nodded her head and complied.

Lu Shaoming patted her head like a beloved puppy, then he gave gestured towards the back seat. “Take a look; this is the present I brought back.”

Ning Qing looked towards the back, and noticed that there was an exquisite present at the back.

Ning Qing’s eyes glowed, and in her heart, she was under the impression that Lu Shaoming was not the type who would buy presents. Even if it were some special occasion, he only knew how to give her his credit card and ask her to spend it at her discretion; to sum it up, he was a boring man.

She really didn’t think he would have the time to purchase a gift.

Ning Qing turned to the back and brought the package forward, “Hubby, is this the present that you got for me when you went on the business trip?”

“Yes! I wanted to see you when I came back last night, and I forgot to take it out.” The man smiled gently.

Ning Qing opened the package, and first took out a small bottle that seemed like a perfume bottle. The packaging was gorgeous, and Ning Qing did not open it. “Hubby, is this a gift for my mum?”

“That’s right. Didn’t Mum always like to collect flowers to make floral water? This is the latest floral water from Europe. Mum will definitely love it.”

Ning Qing turned around and pecked his cheek loudly. Muah “You have put in so much effort.”

She could tell the heart of the man from his presents. He loved her, and hence also loved the things she loved. Because he loved her, he also placed her family members in an important position.

Just like her. Because she loved him, she thought of all sorts of solutions to gain Song Yajing’s recognitio, as she wanted to give him a warm home.

Ning Qing took out another item. It was a tobacco pipe, and it looked to have a long history behind it. I was made out of briar wood, and it was engraved with flowers and words. One look and she could tell it was an item of the upper class. It was probably procured from an antique auction.

“Hubby, this is worth a lot, isn’t it?”

“Yeah.” Lu Shaoming affirmed, then said, “It’s all good as long Dad likes it.”

The way he agreed like that meant that it was really worth a lot, because he would not mention a little sum.

Ning Qing turned around again and wanted to kiss his face, but the man turned sideways and suddenly kissed her soft, fragrant lips.

Because he was driving, he did not dare be reckless, so he let go of her after a moment.

Ning Qing’s small face was a little red, but wait a minute… Ning Qing went through the package. It was empty?

It was actually empty!

Ning Qing was angry as she stomped her feet, and she lifted her eyebrows and complained to him saying, “Hubby, where is my present? Did you forget about me?”

The car had already made it to the grass patch at the Ning family home. Last night he came back from his business trip, and Yue Wanqing had given him a call to ask them to come home for dinner.

Lu Shaoming stopped the car and turned off the engine. He curled his lips into a smile as he said, “Madam, we are already an old couple. What present would you want? Wouldn’t me returning home be the best gift for you?”

“That… That is not the same okay… Lu Shaoming, you are too bad! I don’t want to like you anymore, hmph!” Ning Qing was extremely aggrieved, and she wanted to open the car door and get out of there.

But her slim arm was locked. A thick fashionable book with a glazed glass cover was thrust into her arms. Ning Qing channelled her gaze down to look and was still not satisfied. “What is this?”

She casually flipped through it, and her heartbeat sped up immediately. She hastily closed the book with her little hands and held it in her embrace as she game him a girly look. Her face was burning hot, and she bit down on her pink lips to ask him, “Lu Shaoming, what are you trying to say?”

“Wifey, it is time for us to hold a wedding.”
