217 Sweet and Obedient

Su Binglan took a light breath and smelled a faint bamboo-like scent in her nose. She knew the scent belonged to her husband as it was intoxicating. She was sleepy but could not fall asleep at the thought of Luo Jin’an beside her.

Instead, she seemed very energetic. She did not know whether or not her husband was asleep and wanted to turn over, but she was afraid of disturbing him if she made any noise.

She gently moved the corner of the quilt, and Luo Jin’an turned over at that moment. Su Binglan happened to meet his eyes and blinked, not knowing what to say, so she said, “Y-You’re not asleep yet?”

Luo Jin’an said, “Yes, are you having trouble sleeping?”

Su Binglan could only give one reason, “I’m not sleepy yet.”

Luo Jin’an did not say anything. Seeing that her husband had no intention of sleeping, Su Binglan asked tentatively, “Then why don’t we talk?”

“Okay,” Luo Jin’an agreed.

Even though Su Binglan suggested talking, she did not know what to say. After some thought, she asked, “Have you gotten used to the academy?”

“Yes, I have,” after a short pause, Luo Jin’an asked, “Did you have a tough time during your journey?”

Su Binglan said smilingly, “Not really. I just traveled back and forth to bring Second Brother home. The whole family will be complete when Wenwu returns. Then my parents won’t have to worry anymore.”

She said these things in a light tone so her husband would not overthink. However, she did not know Luo Jin’an had sent Luo Ying to watch over her.

“Well, I know your third brother will return safely,” said Luo Jin’an.

To prevent Su Binglan from traveling to dangerous lands again, Luo Jin’an preemptively sent people to look for Su Wenwu and bring him home safely. Su Binglan was gone for over a month, and it was too long for Luo Jin’an to wait.

Su Binglan nodded, saying, “I know.”

She could sense that her third brother was safe and did not have to worry, but her parents hoped for Su Wenwu to return as soon as possible.

The couple talked, and time pa.s.sed bit by bit. Luo Jin’an noticed how late it had gotten and said, “Go to sleep.” He knew his wife did not rest well on her journey.

“Okay.” After a while, Su Binglan finally felt relaxed, so she quickly fell asleep.

Luo Jin’an listened to his wife’s shallow breathing and knew she had fallen asleep. He got up slightly, reached out, and covered Su Binglan with the quilt, gently tucking her in.

His movements were gentle and did not disturb his sleeping wife. Afterward, Luo Jin’an also went to sleep. However, it had gotten a little hotter due to the heated brick bed, so Su Binglan instinctively pushed off the quilt.

Luo Jin’an was a light sleeper and would wake up at the slightest whisper or rustling. Therefore, he immediately woke up. His eyes were full of murderous intent when he opened them.

His aura only became gentler after realizing where he was. Then he turned around and saw Su Binglan kicking off the quilt.

He had burned extra wood tonight because he knew his wife had not slept well on her journey. He wanted her to have a warm bed, but it had gotten too hot, so Su Binglan removed the quilt.

Luo Jin’an sat up slightly and patiently covered his wife with the quilt again. His pillow was not as good as hers, yet he carefully rearranged Su Binglan’s pillow, afraid of disturbing her sleep.

Su Binglan felt Luo Jin’an’s cool breath and subconsciously stuck to it. She crawled into her husband’s arms as he adjusted her pillow. Luo Jin’an’s whole body stiffened, and he did not know where to put his hands and feet at that moment.

He lowered his head and saw his wife’s face clearly under the moonlight. Su Binglan was very different when she slept than during the day. She was light and soft, looking sweet and obedient as she slept, like a little girl who felt loved.

Luo Jin’an looked at his wife for a while and put her back on her pillow. Su Binglan was unaware of all this. Perhaps she felt safe and relaxed at home and could sleep soundly.

Moreover, Luo Jin’an was very careful, so Su Binglan did not wake.

…

She slept well the whole night and only woke up the following morning. It was still a little dark in the room when she opened her eyes, so she looked at the drawn curtains and rubbed her eyes.

She did not seem to have drawn the curtains last night. Luo Jin’an was the one who woke up to close the curtains when it was almost dawn. He knew his wife had not rested well during her travels, but now that she was home, Luo Jin’an wanted his wife to have a much-needed rest.

Hence, he closed the curtains and blocked the sunlight so Su Binglan could sleep well. When Su Binglan woke up, Luo Jin’an was already gone. She only saw him sitting on a stool in the courtyard when she went to wash up.

He was reading a book, facing the sun. After all, Luo Jin’an did not have to go to the academy for the next two days.

Su Binglan went to her husband’s side, poked her head out, and asked, “Are you reading?”

Hearing his wife’s voice, Luo Jin’an gently replied, “Yes, I am. I’ve boiled some water so you can wash your face.”

He was only reading to kill time because he was waiting for his wife to wake up.

Su Binglan hurriedly said, “I’ll go fetch myself some water. You can rest.” She could not bear to let Luo Jin’an serve her like last time because she would feel terrible.

Luo Jin’an said, “I made breakfast and left it in the pot, so it stays hot.”

Su Binglan stopped in her tracks and asked, “D-Did you have breakfast yet?”

Luo Jin’an replied calmly, “I was waiting for you to eat with me.”

Su Binglan always thought her husband seemed different from before but did not want to overthink it. “You can eat first next time, especially if I wake up late.”

Luo Jin’an said, “It’s okay.”

Although his cooking skills could not compare to his wife’s, Su Binglan did not want to waste the food and ate until she was full because Luo Jin’an had made it for her.

Su Wenxiu had not woken up yet, so Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an went to Shen Qiuhua and Su Fengmao’s house first.

Shen Qiuhua was teaching Liu Yinyin to make dumplings because Liu Yinyin was not around much when the family made them yesterday. Liu Yinyin only wanted to learn how to make dumplings herself so she could teach her family.

Su Binglan went over to help too. When they finished making the dumplings, Shen Qiuhua packed them in a basket for Liu Yinyin to bring home to her parents.

Su Binglan said, “Sister-in-law, you can cook these dumplings any time. Since you watched from the sidelines yesterday and learned how to cook them, It won’t take long to learn.”

Liu Yinyin nodded. “Okay.”

Shen Qiuhia packed more things for her daughter-in-law, including white rice and pork.

“Mother-in-law, there are too many things here.”

Shen Qiuhua said, “It’s not at all. My family’s conditions weren’t good in the past, and we couldn’t send much to your parents, but it’s different now. You must give these to them.”
