"I just came back and I have some things to do."
Chu Yan did not expose her and stepped forward to hold her hand. The woman's cold fingertips made him frown slightly and said, "Why are you still outside so late? The weather is getting colder and colder now. Don't go out at night if you have nothing to do."
"I just finished freshening up."
Su Liuye withdrew her hand, glanced outside the back door, and couldn't help but ask, "I seemed to have seen Miss Ye from Huichun Hall just now. Why didn't you invite her in to sit down?"
"She still has things to do."
Chu Yan took her back to the house.
Thinking that the children were already asleep, they went to the room where Chu Yan usually lived.
As soon as she entered the door, Su Liuye saw several men's clothes placed on the chair. Her face was slightly red and her heart beat faster.
She didn't usually come in this room very often, Chu Yan was always cleaning it up. This was the first time she followed Chu Yan in at night.
"You go to bed first, I'm going to freshen up."
Chu Yan said.
"Okay." Su Liuye nodded, and his originally rapid heartbeat sped up.
But the children were all asleep, and it was not good for her to go back at this time. She might as well stay.
Besides, she had been married to Chu Yan for so long, so it was normal for the couple to sleep together.
Su Liuye was lying on the bed, and there was a faint, grass-like aroma on the quilt, as if Chu Yan was holding her in his arms.
Su Liuye closed her eyes, and what appeared in front of her was the man's muscular chest. Thinking about it, her cheeks began to feel hot.
After being married for so long, she and Chu Yan didn't have any ambiguous relationship. It's not that she likes to have random thoughts, it's just that they are already married and they are still so "unfamiliar". No one will believe it if she tells them.
Su Liuye yawned as she thought about it. Tiredness gradually came over her. She looked outside the door. She originally wanted to wait for Chu Yan to come back, but because she was too sleepy, she turned over and fell asleep.
Drowsily, Su Liuye felt a warm body approaching, with rough hands caressing her face. The movements were gentle, suppressing and not wanting to wake her up.
Su Liuye snorted twice, because she was too sleepy to open her eyes, and quickly fell asleep again.
In her sleep, Su Liuye felt very warm, as if someone was holding her in his arms.
When Su Liuye woke up the next day, the sun came in from outside. As soon as Su Liuye opened her eyes, she saw the man's kindness.
She was stunned, and then realized that she was sleeping in Chu Yan's arms. Looking up, the man's sleeping face was right in front of him.
She looked down and saw Chu Yan's hand on her waist. As soon as Su Liuye relaxed a little, the man sleeping next to him opened his eyes, still with sleepiness in his eyes.
"Are you awake?" Chu Yan's hoarse voice came, with a deep magnetism.
Su Liuye's heartbeat accelerated slightly when she heard the voice. After saying "hmm", she got up from his arms and looked outside. The sun was shining brightly outside the window.
She hadn't woken up at this hour for a long time. During this period of time, I have been busy with the silk and satin shop. I often wake up early in the morning and can't come back until late at night.
"Husband, don't you have to go out this morning?" She looked at the man beside her, a little confused.
Chu Yan, like her, went out early during this period. After helping to count the ingredients in the store, he went out to get busy. He usually didn't come back until evening.
Su Liuye didn't know what he was busy with and didn't ask.
But after listening to his conversation with Ye Yunniang last night, it seemed that the things they were busy with had something to do with the capital.
Thinking of this, Su Liuye looked at Chu Yan with a little doubt in her eyes.
She never knew that Chu Yan had any contact with the capital, and it seemed that there were very important things waiting for him to deal with.
Thinking of this, she asked, "Husband, are you going to the capital soon?"
"Did you hear that?"
Chu Yan looked at the woman in his arms. Because she had just woken up, her long hair was spread out, and her black hair lay softly on her cheeks, making her skin fairer.
As Chu Yan watched, his heartstrings were gently teased, and the hand originally placed on Su Liuye's waist could not help but become stronger.
"Ah?" Su Liuye realized that she had been exposed, but after thinking about it, it was not an important matter, so she nodded and said, "Yes, I happened to see you and Miss Ye outside last night and heard what you said. Capital City.”
Chu Yan was silent.
He also saw Su Liuye last night, but he didn't expect that she would hear their conversation. He hasn't figured out how to talk about this matter yet, and now he's afraid he can no longer hide it.
"Yes, there are indeed some things that need to be dealt with." He said solemnly, "Maybe it will pass after a while. It's not determined yet, so I can't tell you anything."
"It's okay." Su Liuye shook her head and said softly, "Husband, you and I are just a couple. There are some things you don't want to tell me, and I understand that."
"It's getting late, I still have things to do."
Without giving Chu Yan a chance to speak, Su Liuye stood up and left.
She knew that Chu Yan had his own reasons why he didn't follow her, and she was not the kind of person who liked to get to the bottom of things. Since Chu Yan couldn't talk about his difficulties, there was no point in her asking.
"A Liu..."
Chu Yan wanted to explain to her, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, the person next to him had already stood up and left. His fingertips only had time to touch the woman's palm, but she raised her hand to avoid him.
Su Liuye put on her robe and left without giving him a chance to say more.
Chu Yan looked at his empty palms, and felt empty in his heart. However, he really couldn't tell Su Liuye about things related to the capital, otherwise it would hurt her.
After changing his clothes, Chu Yan went outside and learned that Su Liuye had gone out and took his two children with him.
"Brother Chu, did you and A Liu have a fight?"
Qin Lian brought him breakfast and asked curiously, "I just saw A Liu looking unhappy. I asked her, but she refused to tell me."
As she said that, she looked at Chu Yan for a few times and couldn't imagine that Chu Yan would quarrel with Su Liuye.
In her impression, although Chu Yan didn't like to talk much, he was really good to Su Liuye. He often helped her handle things silently and supported all of Su Liuye's decisions.
Such a good husband is hard to find.
But she remembered that Su Liuye told her that she and Chu Yan had been married for so long and they had never slept together.
Qin Lian had never heard of such a relationship between husband and wife, and she couldn't guess what kind of feelings Chu Yan had for Su Liuye.
But she knew that A Liu must be right!
Su Liuye had a quarrel with Chu Yan. It was probably Chu Yan who did something wrong, which made Su Liuye angry.
Thinking of this, Qin Lian said angrily, "Brother Chu, did you do something to make A Liu angry?"
Chu Yan did not deny it, "I have something to go to the capital recently, but I haven't told A Liu yet. This matter is related to Mr. Xiao, and I cannot disclose it at will. A Liu will feel that I deliberately conceal it."
