"Yao Yao." Lei Zichen gently caressed Tao Tian's face, as if he was a completely different person from before.

"You're crying …" Lei Zichen exclaimed in shock as he felt the wetness on Tao Tian's cheeks.

Tao Tian didn't respond. He only gave him a slightly trembling back. His smooth back slightly twitched and his faintly discernible spine meandered like a small snake.

"Yao Yao." Realizing that he had just been tyrannical, Lei Zichen's face was filled with reluctance as he gently hugged Tao Tian from behind. He remembered that Tao Tian had once said that this type of sleeping posture was the most suitable to treat injuries.

"Zichen." After a period of confusion, Tao Tian finally spoke.

"I love you …" Tao Tian spoke his words clearly. Although his syllables contained a slight tremble, it still caused Lei Zichen's entire body to tremble.

"Yao Yao." Lei Zichen didn't say anything else, but held Tao Tian's arm tighter and tighter.

Tao Tian's body was curled into a ball in the posture of a baby in a mother.

The two of them spent the entire afternoon in silence.

"Zichen, will you believe me?" Finally, Tao Tian broke the silence.

"I …" Lei Zichen was at a loss for words. He didn't know how to reply.

"Forget it, pretend I didn't ask." Tao Tian did not speak any further. She was still the same as before, unwilling to speak up for him. Moreover, anything that Lei Zichen could think of would happen. She deserved to die …

She deserved to be tortured under him by Lei Zichen. She was a vicious woman who wanted to kill her newlywed husband.

"Zichen, if, one day, I disappeared, would you miss me?" Tao Tian asked again.

"Yes, I will look for you until I die." This time, Lei Zichen's answer was resolute without any hesitation.

"Zichen," Tao Tian turned around and buried his head deep in Lei Zichen's chest, greedily smelling everything that belonged to him.

"I think I'll take a bath." After hugging for an unknown amount of time, Tao Yao raised her face.

Lei Zichen didn't say anything, but just closed his eyes and nodded his head.

Tao Tian slowly stood up. Lei Zichen's clothes had already been torn to shreds. She casually picked up a shirt of Lei Zichen's and carried a towel into the bathroom.

Looking at Tao Tian's petite body inside his big clothes, Lei Zichen's heart once again had a soft feeling.

Thinking about how he had treated her so harshly just now, his heart didn't feel good either.

Tao Tian, alone, silently walked into the bathroom, squatting under the shower, letting the tears flow freely.

Tao Tian covered his mouth to prevent himself from making a sound.

Tao Tian lay on the ground, his shoulders twitching as he sobbed. Tears flowed from his eyes along with the cold bath water.

Tao Tian thought about their first time. No, it should be the first time in Tao Tian's heart. It also seemed like such ice-cold water. Why was her heart warm at that time?

She knew that this man in front of her was the love of her heart.

She could do anything for him.

Thinking of their first sweet and soft night, but looking at the green and red wounds that Lei Zichen had just sown on Tao Tian's body, Tao Yao didn't feel any pain. Instead, he felt a wave of relief.

Luckily, after being abused by him, her guilt lessened a bit. However, she didn't want to part with him. She didn't want to part with him and leave this man who gave her so many wonderful things in her life …

"Miss, what are you doing?" Qing Qing knocked on the door with worry. "You've been inside for a long time."

"Oh, that's good." Tao Tian forced himself to calm down and began to clean his body.

"Young Master Lei, the little miss has been inside for a long time." Qing Qing panted as she spoke to Lei Zichen, "Young Master Lei, you shouldn't have doubted the little miss's feelings for you. She did everything for your sake." Qing Qing explained to Tao Tian, wishing she could tell Lei Zichen what had happened.

Lei Zichen didn't say anything, but sneered coldly.

He walked past Qingqing to the bathroom door and lightly tapped on it.

"Yao Yao, are you alright?" Lei Zichen asked gently. It was almost impossible to connect the two of them.

Hearing Lei Zichen's voice calling out to him from outside, Tao Tian became even more anxious. He quickly wiped himself clean and wrapped a towel around himself before running out.

"Zichen, I …" "I'm fine …" After experiencing that soul-stirring experience, Tao Tian somewhat cowered and didn't dare to look Lei Zichen in the eye.

"Let me see." Lei Zichen's heart ached as he looked at Tao Tian's exposed skin, which was now completely purple.

His heart seemed to be drawn in two different directions, and then it was kneaded into an irregular shape.

Alright, get dressed and go downstairs to eat.

"Eat!" Tao Tian seemed to have thought of something. "Zichen, we haven't bought the ingredients for tonight's dinner yet. Hurry, hurry …" Tao Tian said as he rushed into the bedroom. He wanted to change his clothes.

"Alright, Yao Yao. Sister E has finished cooking today, so there's no need for you to be busy." Lei Zichen pulled Tao Tian along as he looked at him tenderly.

He wanted to do his best to give Tao Tian the greatest amount of gentleness in order to dissolve the dangerous elements that he could not clearly see in her heart.

If he didn't know how tyrannical he was just now, then he, who had calmed down, would rather use a gentle method to face the unknown in front of him.

"But, but I promised my father." Tao Tian seemed to be unable to control his emotions. It was obvious that Lei Zichen's unusual actions just now had frightened her.

"Yao Yao, be good. Yao Yao." Lei Zichen repeatedly called out her name before finally hugging her tightly, allowing her to wave her arms around.

"Zichen …" Tao Tian finally quieted down in Lei Zichen's arms, but turned into a low sobbing sound.

"I don't want to leave you, I love you …" Tao Tian softly said as he sobbed.

"Silly girl, I won't let you leave me. I know …" I love you too … " Lei Zichen coaxed her softly.

Lei Zichen's entire body was still trembling as he recalled the words he overheard. However, he seemed to have forgotten about them, as if he had forgotten about the one moment in which he heard those words and everything was still fine …

"Alright, I'm fine now." Lei Zichen softly kissed Tao Tian's hair. " Did you hear that? Don't cry anymore. "

Tao Tian tried hard to stop his sobbing, but his body still couldn't help but tremble.

"Alright, quickly wipe your eyes and go downstairs. If dad sees it later, I don't know how to explain it." Lei Zichen, help Tao Tian wipe away the tears at the corner of his eyes.

Tao Tian looked at Lei Zichen, her Zichen came back, gentle and gentle.

It was just a short moment, but it felt like a long and eternal moment.

Tao Tian, sitting in his room for a while to calm his mind, then he and Lei Zichen went downstairs.

"Dad, let's eat. I'm a bit tired this morning so I didn't have the time to prepare dinner. I'm really sorry." Tao Tian politely said to Lei Haotian.

"It doesn't matter, it's the same for Sister E." Lei Haotian's face was filled with warmth. He used his hand to push his glasses up and down, looking at Lei Zichen and Tao Tian with a smile.

"You two?" As if he felt the two of them acting strangely, Lei Haotian couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, Daddy, we're fine. I'm just a little tired." Lei Zichen hurriedly explained.

"Oh, that's great. Young people will always have a few conflicts. The most important thing is to support each other. Zichen, please give up. Her grandfather only has this one granddaughter." Lei Haotian's words contained a hidden meaning.

He looked at Tao Tian, hinting her not to have any presumptuous thoughts.

"Oh heavens, dad remembers that you've been sick these past two days? "That day, I knocked on your door and wanted to see you. You fell asleep, so I didn't disturb you." Lei Haotian still had a benevolent look on his face.

"Ah …" Thinking of that panicking noon, Tao Tian was at first at a loss, but soon he came to a realization.

"Ah, that day. Yes, that's right. I was sleeping soundly when I heard father knocking on the door." Fortunately, Tao Tian remembered that Qing Qing had warned her before.

"What about now? Are you feeling any better?" Lei Haotian was filled with concern.

"Don't worry, dad, you're much better now." Tao Tian tried his best to smile in response.

"Ah, that's good. I'll let Sister E cook a sweet soup. I'll bring it up later to drink after the meal." Lei Haotian laughed and said, "I heard from Zichen that you like papaya stewing Snow Toad. Today, I specially asked Big Sister E to prepare it for you. I'll also let you have a taste of Big Sister E's cooking skills later."

"Thank you, Dad." Tao Tian lowered his head and whispered.

"Alright, alright. Quickly, eat." Lei Haotian gestured with his chopsticks, and Tao Tian and Lei Zichen began to move.

After the meal, the two of them followed their usual routine. They accompanied Lei Haotian to read the financial news together, and then they gathered together to drink the sweet soup they had just stewed.

"Yao Yao, take a look. How is this older sister's culinary skills compared to yours?" Lei Haotian smiled as he saw Tao Yao gulp down the soup.

"Dad, look at what you're saying, how can I compare to sister E? She cooks for much longer than I do, I'm just a child's thing." Tao Tian humbly said.

"Hehe, look at my daughter-in-law. She's really modest. It's been a long time since your grandfather tasted your sweet soup, do you want to go back and see him? " Lei Haotian probed. The meaning behind his words was obvious. He was asking Tao Tian!

Have you contacted her grandfather recently?

"Yeah, it's been a long time, but there's a servant helping out at home. I think without me, nothing would have happened." Tao Tian felt a bit uneasy.

"Oh, so it's like that, haha." Lei Haotian laughed heartily, "I, Dreadful Master Tao, blame me. He said that since I married his granddaughter into the family, I'll seize her. If not, I won't give her to me!"

Take a look, we don't dare to form a feud with the Tao Family. " "Lei Haotian laughed and made a frightened face, but Tao Tianwei was still frightened by what he saw.

"Dad, you're right." At this moment, Tao Tian felt as if he was treading on thin ice. It was as if a single mistake would cause him to fall into an unrecoverable abyss.

"Hehe, alright, alright, let's not joke around. Drink the soup." Lei Haotian gave a self-deprecating laugh. He waved his hand, signaling the two of them to drink some soup.

Lei Zichen silently watched the conversation between the two of them. He seemed to be able to guess what was going on. He didn't want to think about it, he wanted to think about it. Everything was the same as what he wanted.

When it was time for him to go to bed, Tao Tian slowly didn't want to go to bed. That strange Lei Zichen at noon today, thinking about it now, still made Tao Tian shudder.

"Yao Yao, why aren't you sleeping? Why are you still walking around?" Lei Zichen sat on the bed and watched Tao Tian pacing up and down on the floor.

"Zichen, I …" Tao Tian wanted to say something but hesitated. She didn't know how to express her state of mind.

"Yao Yao, I won't hurt you. I just, want … … I'm just sleeping with you in my arms. " Lei Zichen smiled, his smile so harmless, exactly the same as every time he smiled.
