……

When Lin Shuyun and the others returned home, Qin Niangzi had already prepared dinner.

For dinner, we had three-ingredient congee, stuffed lotus root with pork, and two green vegetables.

During the meal, Old Xu was rambling on about how he single-handedly defeated four people, while Qin Niangzi was busy dismantling his act, and Xiao Qing remained silent.

Jiang Changtian was uneasy, feeling like he had thorns in his backside. With something on his mind, he found it difficult to swallow the meal.

"What, is my cooking that bad?"

Suddenly, Qin Niangzi turned her attention to Jiang Changtian.

Jiang Changtian was taken aback. "It's not bad."

Qin Niangzi raised an eyebrow, "If it's not bad, why are you counting the rice in your porridge? Our porridge is almost empty, and yours is still full."

Jiang Changtian hadn't eaten much when he suddenly realized that all the dishes on the table had been eaten, and he was still holding a bowl of porridge.

He hurriedly picked up the bowl and gulped it down.

Qin Niangzi stroked her chin, her eyes darting around, "Is it your turn to wash the dishes today, boy? Hurry up and wash the dishes."

Jiang Changtian got up and subconsciously reached for his cane, but when he saw Lin Shuyun looking over, he pulled his hand back, stacked the bowls and chopsticks on the table, picked them up, and left.

Old Xu suddenly remembered something and slammed his hand on the table. "Good heavens, your leg is healed? When did it get better? You were still limping at the academy just now!"

"Yes, we didn't even know when he stopped limping," Qin Niangzi said in a drawn-out tone.

Xiaoqing glanced at it and said, "Why ask? If they don't want to talk about it, they won't. If they want to, they will."

Jiang Changtian was tense all over, waiting for Lin Shuyun to speak, but she didn't say anything.

Jiang Changtian stood there stunned for a while, then carried a stack of bowls to the kitchen.

Old Man Xu, Madam Qin, and Xiaoqing exchanged glances: there's more to this than meets the eye.

After dinner, we finally waited until it got dark.

Lin Shuyun had just entered the house when Jiang Changtian followed her in.

He cornered her right next to the bed and said, "Yunyun, I have something to tell you."

The significant height difference between men and women, standing so close together, can feel oppressive to most people.

But not with Lin Shuyun. She calmly sat on the bed and said, "Go ahead and speak."

Jiang Changtian looked at her as she suddenly shrunk a inch, her Adam's apple bobbing as her head was exposed. "Yunyun, you should have guessed it long ago, I'm actually not..."

Lin Shuyun interrupted him, "Wait a minute."

Jiang Changtian had been mentally preparing himself for a long time, but being suddenly interrupted made him pause and feel even more at a loss.

"Yunyun, what's wrong?"

Seeing Lin Shuyun get up, he assumed she didn't want to listen and was about to leave, so he hurriedly grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.

"Yunyun, don't go, don't leave me, I was wrong."

Lin Shuyun: ...

"Let me go first."

"I won't let go. Even if you beat me to death, I won't let go."

Lin Shuyun was held tightly against Jiang Changtian's chest, and could hear his heart pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of his chest, making her ears hurt.

Helpless, he had no choice but to use brute force to pull the person away, then walked to the doorway and flung it open.

"Old man, Brother Xiaoqing, Auntie, you seem to be listening so intently, why don't you come in and listen?"

The three people eavesdropping outside almost stumbled and fell into the house.

Old Xu chuckled, "Well, Yun girl, I've come to ask what we're having for breakfast tomorrow morning, and if we can have rice wine."

Qin Niangzi looked up at the sky, then glanced at the bed inside the room. "Uh... Aunt, do you believe me if I just happened to be passing by?"

Xiaoqing said matter-of-factly, "I'm here to eavesdrop! Can I come in and listen?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Old Man Xu and Madam Qin stared at Xiao Qing as if they had seen a ghost.

Are you possessed by a demon? How dare you be so brazen and assertive about overhearing someone eavesdropping?!

Qin Niangzi couldn't help but ask what was on her mind, "Was this kid scared out of his wits when he smashed the shop, or did he get his head smashed?"

Wasn't she a crybaby before, always with red eyes like a rabbit? How come she suddenly changed like this after just one trip back to the countryside?

Old Xu grunted, "It seems so."

"You're the ones who bumped your heads! Are you still going to continue? If not, I'm going to sleep." Xiaoqing yawned and rolled her eyes at Qin Niangzi.

"By the way, little sister, let me give you a piece of advice: men's words are deceitful. Don't believe anything a man says, especially his vows of eternal love and devotion."

After saying that, Xiaoqing quickly went to her room and closed the door.

Jiang Changtian: ...

Lin Shuyun: ...

"What a ghost! Time to sleep." Qin Niangzi shook her head, muttered something, and went back to her room.

Old Xu looked at Lin Shuyun and Jiang Changtian and said, "You two keep going, try to give me a grandson to play with soon."

Lin Shuyun: ...

Jiang Changtian: ...

After everyone left, Lin Shuyun closed the door and sat back down on the bed.

"Alright, now that the walls aren't listening, you can speak."

"me……"

Jiang Changtian's carefully prepared mental state was completely disrupted. He stammered for a long time, his face turning red.

After a long pause, he let out a muffled fart, "Yunyun, I love you, marry me."

Lin Shuyun felt sorry for him and reached out to pull Jiang Changtian's clothes down, bringing the two of them face to face.

"They say a man's mouth is a liar's tongue, let me taste it and see if it's lying?"

After saying that, he looked up and leaned closer.

The warm, smooth touch made Jiang Changtian's mind explode like fireworks, leaving him stunned and unable to react.

Lin Shuyun wiped her lips with her finger. "I've tried it, and it doesn't taste very good."

Of course not. Although a man's words can lie, they are indeed quite sweet to kiss during the long night.

Jiang Changtian went completely mad, grabbed her hand, and knelt on one knee. "Yunyun, I'm not Jiang Changtian, my name is Changtian, I'm from the Chang family of Shengjing..."

"Stop. I don't want to know your identity right now. You are just Jiang Changtian, my husband. We each get what we need. If you regain your identity and still want to be with me then, I'll consider whether I want you or not."

"Alright, it's getting late, let's go to sleep."

After finishing her sentence in one breath, Lin Shuyun took off her shoes, turned over, and went to bed.

This feeling was like a sudden detachment for Jiang Changtian, leaving him completely at a loss.

My heart is pounding with anxiety.

Good news: Yunyun didn't reject him, nor did she blame him for hiding his identity.

The bad news is that Yunyun is not interested in his true identity and is ready to abandon him at any time.

Lin Shuyun urged, "Hurry up and come up to sleep. Let's make this clear beforehand: if you dare to do anything to me, you're a beast."

Jiang Changtian was on tenterhooks... He stood by the bed for a long time before finally tiptoeing onto the bed and lying down beside it, silently reciting military strategy in his mind.

Lin Shuyun waited all night but there was still no sign of anything happening.

I was thinking in a daze.

Bah! They're worse than animals.
