Chapter 18
He Ruiting was not anxious, he quietly stood at the door and waited for Su Jinyi to continue speaking.
The two of them remained in this stalemate for a long time before Su Jinyi finally said in a low voice, "But I'm not ready yet."
He Ruiting raised his eyebrows and asked: Prepare what?
"That …" Su Jinyi's voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.
"Hmm? Which one is that? " He Ruiting did not plan on letting her go and continued to ask.
"It's what a couple will do when they get married." This time, Su Jinyi finally understood that He Ruiting did it on purpose, so she just mustered up her courage and said it directly.
When she married He Ruiting, although the two of them didn't have any feelings for each other, she was still an adult and wasn't a child that was a few years old. She naturally thought that if she married him, there might be a day where the two of them would be married.
Previously, the two of them were sleeping in separate rooms, but today He Ruiting suddenly requested to enter her room, she was caught unprepared and did not know what to do.
"What is the Madam thinking? I was just worried that something might happen to you when you were alone in the room. " He Ruiting answered seriously.
"I …" Su Jinyi's face became even redder. She had already made a great deal of determination when she said those words earlier, but she did not expect He Ruiting to actually retort that it was her who was imagining things.
"So you've been thinking about these things in your head all day. No wonder you always think that your wife is absent-minded." He Ruiting intentionally teased her.
"You bastard!" Only now did Su Jinyi realize that she had been tricked by him. She became so angry that she used all her strength to push He Ruiting, who was blocking the door, and heavily closed the door with a "bang".
Instead of getting angry, He Ruiting, who was locked outside, laughed. Why didn't he realise that Su Jinyi had such a cute side to him before?
He Ruiting did not know that when he returned to his room with a smile on his face, the Uncle Xu and the Na
y Lin downstairs all quietly peeked upstairs.
The sound of the door closing made them think that the couple upstairs was arguing. The result was that after listening for a long time, there was no sound of quarrelling. Instead, it sounded like the couple was flirting.
There was also their family's usual man, the one who didn't smile at all. Had he just been shut out by Madam Ye?
But why did he still have that sweet smile on his face? Could it be that he had a hidden tendency to be masochistic?
Uncle Xu and Na
y Lin waited for a long time on the ground floor. After hearing that there were no other movements on the floor above, they looked at each other and returned to their respective rooms in tacit understanding.
They did not know what had just happened, but from Mister's reaction, it seemed like the couple was having fun, so they did not need to worry about anything and went to bed separately.
Su Jinyi was in the bathroom looking at the big red protrusion on her forehead in the mirror.
"It hurts. It should be even more swollen when I wake up tomorrow, right?" Su Jinyi muttered to herself as she reached out to touch the red packet on her forehead.
"Sigh, am I really that stupid?"
Su Jinyi recalled everything that had happened in the carriage, and she deeply regretted not holding that ring in his hand, and why she had fiercely smacked her head twice in the same place.
Her fingers brushed her forehead, and a faint medicinal fragrance wafted from her fingertips.
Why did He Ruiting suddenly ask her out for di
er, why did he suddenly give her a wedding ring, why did he suddenly become so interested in her?
These questions instantly flooded her mind, and she could not figure out how to explain them.
Maybe only He Ruiting himself knew the reason.
Su Jinyi's head was starting to ache, so after a simple wash, she applied some medicine on her swollen forehead and was about to lie down and sleep.
"Hiss …"
The pain on the back of her head made Su Jinyi jump up from her bed.
"Oh god, I can't help but admire myself for striking out like this." Su Jinyi muttered to herself. She also stopped thinking about the problem of the hair getting dirty after applying the medicine on the back of her head. Rather than feeling unbearable pain, she chose to wash her hair one more time a day.
The ointment that He Ruiting bought for her was very useful, it had a faint smell of mint, and after being smeared it, it felt cool and refreshing, able to ease the burning sensation.
Still, he could not lie down and sleep.
Su Jinyi lay down on her side. Although her head was still aching, she was still sleepy and had unknowingly fallen asleep.
It was probably because too many things had happened during the day that even in her dreams, Su Jinyi had once again seen Su Jingran and Li Yi, as well as Su Yuancheng and Wu Wanxin.
Su Jinyi dreamt of the day of Su Jingran and Li Yi's wedding. In her dream, she knew that she was Li Yi's bride, but when all the ceremonial music started and the guests arrived, the host on stage passionately expressed his feelings. Everyone applauded uniformly, and all gazes landed on the stage in anticipation.
Under the spotlight, the bride walked towards the bride step by step. Her steps were dignified and graceful. The white gauze was flawless.
Li Yi removed the veil on the bride's head amidst the crowd's applause.
But why, under the white veil, was's face.
She was clearly the bride.
Amidst the cheers of the guests, the groom kissed the bride, and the two of them stood in the limelight and kissed for a long time. Su Jingran was dressed in a dazzling white wedding dress.
However, she was clearly the bride. Why was it that no one could hear her cries?
She was standing at the wedding, but no one seemed to be able to see her.
She shouted until her voice was hoarse, but no one could hear her voice.
Suddenly the bride turned to her with a smug smile.
Su Jinyi in her dreams wanted to cry, wanted to shout, wanted to loudly ask Li Yi and Su Jingran why they had to do this. But she could not speak, and no one could see her.
"Jin Yi, Su Jinyi. Wake up, wake up. "
There was a faint voice that seemed to come from the horizon. He was calling her name.
"Who are you? How do you know my name? Can you hear me? " Su Jinyi was unable to ascertain the source of the voice, and could only ponder this question in her heart.
"Wake up, Su Jinyi."
The voice continued.
"Su Jinyi, you bitch!" In the dream, Su Jingran's face suddenly became extremely sinister, as she shouted out to her.
"Help!"
Accompanied by a sharp scream, Su Jinyi woke up from her dream.
"You're just having a nightmare. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I'm here."
Su Jinyi felt herself being thrown into a warm embrace.
Her consciousness gradually cleared up, wanting to break free from this embrace. However, she did not expect herself to be hugged even tighter. A hand gently caressed her back, soothing her frightened emotions.
