Ning Yunyin stroked Ye Jinsu's hair, and a doting smile appeared on her face. She spoke as if she was coaxing a child, "Why didn't I realize that you loved to cry so much in the past?"
Ye Jinsu sniffed and pushed him away.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm not crying." It was impossible to see clearly in the darkness. Ye Jinxiu tried her best to maintain a normal tone of voice.
Ning Yunyin ignored her slightly hoarse voice and lowered her head to kiss the wet spot at the corner of her eye. She softly said, "Fine, you're not crying."
Ye Jinsu angrily pushed him away, not allowing him to get close.
Ning Yun immediately grabbed her hand.
It was cold to the touch.
Ning Yunyin grabbed Ye Jinsu's hands and carefully placed them on her palms to warm them. He frowned slightly and said, "You should have brought the warm jade that I gave you. When winter comes, your hands and feet will be cold."
Fortunately, Ning Yun's hands were warm.
Ye Jinsu wrinkled her nose and awkwardly tried to pull back her hand, but it was unsuccessful. She could only mutter softly, "How do you know everything?"
How much information did this fellow have on him?
Ning Yunyin laughed lowly. "I know you much better than you think."
Ye Jinsu looked at him in a daze, secretly curling her lips under the cover of the night.
She was happy.
"I know you like eating green jade cakes from Beijing Tier 1 Workshop; you like soft ducks made by Xiao Hong; you like red, you don't like white; you like going out to play, you don't like staying at home; you like acting on your own accord, you don't like others forcing you …"
Ning Yunyin held Ye Jinsu's hand as she spoke slowly, as if she was memorizing every detail of it in her heart. Only then could she speak in such a fluent and fluent manner.
In the darkness, Ye Jinsu opened her eyes wide and looked at the hazy figure in front of her.
The moonlight outside the window seemed to have brightened up a little. Ye Jinsu could see a little light from the coffin, shining on Ning Yun's back, illuminating the strands of hair at his temples.
Ning Yunyin lowered her head and put down Ye Jinsu's hand to hold her side. "I also know that you like me," she said.
Ning Yunyin's low voice seemed to have magic as she broke the string in Ye Jinsu's mind that was called reason.
She opened her eyes wide as her mind became blank. There was only the incessant echo of Ning Yunyin's words in her ears.
Again and again.
After a long while, Ye Jinsu finally pushed him away and forced a calm smile, "You …. "You sure know how to joke around …"
Ning Yunyin let out two low laughs, but her tone was exceptionally relaxed. "Now you're embarrassed again?"
"Heh …" "Haha …" Ye Jinxiu laughed dryly, not knowing what to say. She could only retreat a few steps and quickly said, "It's getting late, go to sleep!"
After she finished speaking, Ye Jinsu slipped away like a wisp of smoke.
In the darkness of the night, Ning Yun stood with her back to the light, seemingly about to merge into the darkness. The smile on his face gradually widened as he stared at Ye Jinsu's fleeing figure, before turning his head to look outside.
Outside, in the faint moonlight, a bird was circling.
Ning Yun lowered her eyes and looked in the direction Ye Jinsu had left, but her eyes seemed to have already made up her mind.
As for Ye Jinsu, she slipped away and entered the bed. The heat on her face was astonishing.
For some reason, she felt that tonight's Ning Yunyin was exceptionally gentle, especially pleasing to her. Perhaps it was because the moonlight outside had made his outline appear too soft, or perhaps it was because his voice was too soft and gentle, but Ye Jinsu felt like she was drowning in a pool of spring water.
Who can take this …
Ye Jinxiu's heart was beating rapidly. She seemed to be whispering to herself, every word was like a brand in her heart.
Right now, her mind was filled with Ning Yunyin's voice.
He definitely did it on purpose!
Xiao Rong'er had already fallen asleep by his side, but Ye Jinxiu still had her eyes open as she thought about the previous scene.
When she closed her eyes, she could picture his face.
In the deep, chaotic night, Ye Jinsu had a beautiful dream. She dreamt that Ning Yunyin had come to pick her up. Everyone was urging her to change into a wedding dress. She got on Ning Yunyin's bridal sedan and bowed to him.
The host's voice was extremely loud, and the couple bowing together was exceptionally loud.
Red candles were flickering everywhere, and sounds of celebration could be heard everywhere. Her head was covered, and all she could see was a naked red. The red color in the dream continued to spread.
Suddenly, the surrounding voices stopped.
Terrifying silence.
Ye Jinxiu suddenly became flustered. She tore off the top of her head, but all she could see was a patch of red …
Ye Jinxiu sat up suddenly as beads of cold sweat the size of beans oozed out of her forehead.
Xiao Rong'er sat in front of the mirror and turned around to look at Ye Jinsu. "You had a nightmare?"
Only then did Ye Jinxiu regain her senses. She released the hand that was tightly clutching the blanket, and lowered her head with a lingering fear in her heart.
A second before she woke up, she saw a blinding red patch of blood. Ning Yunyin was lying in that patch of red.
She got up and washed her face with cold water. Only then did she completely calm down.
Xiao Rong'er was still dawdling in her room.
Ye Jinsu walked in and saw that Xiao Rong'er was fiddling with her face. Some rouge powder was placed on the stage, and little Rong'er was holding her cheeks as she tried to figure out how to use it.
"You're not married yet and you're thinking of dressing up?" Ye Jinsu laughed and walked over to close the box. "That's why I'm here to propose. Why are you in such a hurry? If you want to dress up, you might as well wait for the day of the wedding."
Xiao Rong'er became angry from embarrassment and pushed Ye Jinsu away.
Ye Jinsu stood on the spot and smiled helplessly.
As expected, people from the Xu Family arrived on time. The two parents wore their betrothal gifts as they came smiling. They had agreed on it previously, but now, it was just a formality for a auspicious occasion.
As Xu Lianhai followed behind his parents, the happiness on his face couldn't even be concealed.
Ye Jinsu sat at the side, watching Xiao Rong'er and Xu Lianjing sit opposite each other. The two of them lowered their heads, not even daring to look at each other.
Ye Jinshu nudged Little Rong'er and teased her, "I'm not watching right now. When your dad accepts the betrothal gift, you won't be able to meet each other again until the day of the wedding, right?"
Xiao Rong'er's face became anxious. She couldn't care less and raised her head to look at Xu Lianchai.
After reading it, he hurriedly lowered his head.
She really looked like a young girl in love, really shy. Ye Jinsu couldn't help but think of her usual shameless appearance with Ning Yunyin and felt deeply ashamed.
What little Rong'er was wearing on her head today was the hairpin Xu Lianshan had given her. Naturally, Xu Lianhai also saw it and was so happy that the corner of his mouth never dropped. He stuttered as he looked at Xiao Rong'er: "You …" "You're so beautiful …"
Xiao Rong'er lowered her head and smiled, her heart was jumping with joy.
Ye Jinxiu shook her head and sighed.
"See that? Beauty is useless." Ye Jinsu nudged Ning Yunyin with his elbow as he spoke, secretly smiling.
"As long as it's useful to you." Ning Yunshu replied smoothly without the slightest bit of embarrassment.
Ye Jinsu harrumphed.
She thought back to last night, and it really was …
Useful for her.
