Chapter 294: Very Gentle
Translator: EndLessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Binglan’s heart ached when she turned to ask Luo Jin’an that. She thought it would have been hard for him if he did not get proper rest and eat proper meals.
Luo Jin’an saw the look in his wife’s eyes when he lowered his head. He lowered his voice and said softly, “You gave me enough silver, so I ate and rested well during my trip. Don’t worry so much, okay?”
His voice was low and gentle. Perhaps it was because of the moonlit ambiance, or he missed being home. Luo Jin’an looked at his wife and reached out to touch her hair. His movements were tender.
At that moment, Su Binglan forgot to think and react. She felt that her husband’s hand was gentle and magical and that his voice was deep, pleasant, and magnetic.
Luo Jin’an seemed incredibly seductive under the night sky.
Su Binglan could not think as she listened to her husband’s words and nodded instinctively.
Luo Jin’an looked at her cute appearance and smiled. “You’re so good to me. Let’s go to bed early.”
Su Binglan nodded. However, she thought something was amiss when she returned to her room and lay down. She could not help but listen to Luo Jin’an and did whatever he said.
‘That’s not right.’ She sat up from her bed and thought she should talk to him. ‘What should I say?
She scratched her head and knocked on her husband’s room door. “Are you asleep yet?”
“No, come in!”
When Su Binglan opened the door, she saw Luo Jin’an changing his clothes. She looked at his skin and quickly turned around. “Y-You’re changing your clothes?”
‘Why didn’t he say anything?! I wouldn’t have come in if he did!’
Luo Jin’an said in a seductive tone, “It should be fine since we’re husband and wife. You’ve seen me shirtless before.”
Indeed, Su Binglan had seen him shirtless when she put medicine on him. She hurriedly said, “Well, I’m here to take your pulse and check your physical condition.”
Su Binglan was worried Luo Jin’an would say something she could not handle if she did not say anything. This time, she came back with a strange feeling in her gut.
However, she suddenly remembered that she had fainted in the bathtub once, and Luo Jin’an was the one who cleaned her and changed her clothes.
‘Ahh! Why did I have to think of that?!’ Su Binglan felt like she had to cover her face and hide in a hole.
Luo Jin’an looked at his wife, and she was looking down at her toes. With a charming smile, he said lowly, “Okay.”
Su Binglan walked to her husband’s side to take his pulse, but Luo Jin’an suddenly hugged her. Su Binglan struggled instinctively.
Luo Jin’an rubbed Su Binglan’s head with his hand as if he was comforting her. “I’m a little tired. Let me hug you for a while.”
Su Binglan dared not move when she heard that. Of course, it was not the first time she had hugged someone, but her heart began to ache. ‘You said you weren’t tired just now.”
Luo Jin’an sighed softly. “Silly girl, I was lying to you. Still, it’s good to be back.”
His sigh made Su Binglan’s heart clench. “Then don’t go out on long trips anymore. There are some things that others can do instead. You don’t have to leave.”
Luo Jin’an did not say anything but just sighed. Su Binglan thought Luo Jin’an had something on his mind that he would not say even if she asked. She could smell his familiar scent at that moment, and he smelled good.
Su Binglan could also hear his heartbeat as they hugged. Then she asked, “Did you have any symptoms from your cold poisoning along the way?
“Give me your hand. I’ll Take Your Pulse.”
This time, Luo Jin’an reached out, and Su Binglan took his pulse. His cold poison did not take effect, but his body was still much weaker.
“Get some rest first. I’ll brew some medicine for you,” Saying this, Su Binglan prepared to leave to brew some medicine.
However, Luo Jin’an grabbed her wrist and pulled her back. “Listen to me. It’s late, so go and rest.”
“No, I want to brew some medicine for you. You’re so tired that you don’t even know it.” Su Binglan raised her head. She could see her husbands green eyes at a close distance and knew he was too tired to rest well.
Su Binglan was very insistent. Even Luo Jin’an could not do anything, so he did not sleep and stayed with his wife.
Su Binglan was brewing medicine in the courtyard while Luo Jin’an watched.
They felt each other’s warmth even if they did not talk. Nonetheless, Su Binglan liked having her husband by her side.
After brewing the medicine, Su Binglan poured it into the bowl. “It’s still a little hot, so drink it later.” She stirred the medicine with a spoon to dissipate the heat as she spoke.
“It’s also a little bitter. I put some sugar in it to make it taste better.” Su Binglan put in a few more spoonfuls of sugar.
Luo Jin’an watched his wife’s actions and said lowly, “I’m the one who should be taking care of you.”
Su Binglan was still a teenager but behaved like an adult by doing everything herself, even caring for her husband. “It doesn’t matter who takes care of who.
You can care for me when you’ve fully recovered.”
She said this as a joke to comfort her husband, but he said earnestly, “Okay, I will.
‘Oh, I was just joking, so you don’t have to take it so seriously.”
Luo Jin’an looked at his wife deeply. ‘What can I offer her as help?’
Su Binglan felt something different when Luo Jin’an looked at her like that. She quickly changed the topic and said, “Take the medicine and rest.”
Then she quickly returned to her room. She lay on the bed and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. It seemed like she had something on her mind. After a while, she sighed. ‘Forget it. I need to sleep, especially since I still have a lot of things to do tomorrow.’
The hotpot restaurant finally opened two days later. Early that morning, many lined up at the restaurant’s entrance, mainly because they saw the “Su l s Hotpot” signboard on the building.
When everyone saw the name “Su n on the signboard, they knew the restaurant’s food would be delicious, even if they had not tried or heard of hotpot.
“Is it opening today?”
“Yeah, it is. A note on the door says it is opening today.”
“Then why isn’t there any movement inside?”
“Maybe we came too early. I couldn’t help it since I heard that the earlier we came, the better the discount.”
“The owners will host a lucky draw too. They will provide a few tables for free every day.”
The villagers and townsfolk knew about this news earlier, so they came to line up before dawn.
Su Binglan had posted some notices at the door, but some could not read. However, those who could read explained the notices to the ones who could not.
Some also saw the queue and approached the crowd to ask what was happening. The curious townsfolk also queued up after hearing about various discounts for the restaurant’s grand opening.
Moreover, the main reason was that there was a set price, and they could also order their own dishes.
Su Binglan had written the prices and made it more affordable for everyone to eat. Otherwise, the village folk and townsfolk would not eat at the restaurant if they saw the high prices..
