Chapter 81 - How Can He Not Dote On Her
Su Wan naturally wasn't omnipotent and had no idea what happened at the Luo household while she was busy brooding over her and Lin Rui's fight, Luo Chenxi and her mother were busy brewing a new scheme .
Thus the night passed by just like this , Madam Liu and Luo Chenxi didn't sleep nor did Su Wan and Lin Rui while their reasons for staying awake was completely different .
Su Wan sat up straight in her bed at the first ray of light through obscure as the sky was covered by clouds that flitted around . Pushing the locks of her hair , she took a final glance around her room and finally came to the conclusion that she was indeed wrong .
Last night she had brainstormed as much as possible and the more she thought , the more she realised that Lin Rui wasn't like her ex husband and nor were the others . She shouldn't brood on her past and cast doubtful eyes on her husbands just because Wang Tao cheated on her does not mean that Lin Rui will too .
After much pondering over her mistakes , she finally came to the conclusion that unlike Wang Tao , her current husbands had treated her really well . They don't push on the household work on her head like Wang Tao nor do they skimp on work saying they need to do this or do that , Wang Tao used to this every time she asked him for help , he would make excuses saying he needed to study and that he couldn't take time off right now .
But Lin Rui and the others weren't like that , they would dote on her and pamper her despite being poor . And from how hard working all her husbands were, it was clear that they had no bas habits either , then why did she react so strongly like that ?
It was only now did she realised why she acted like that , as much as she said that she might not trust another man ever in her life , the Lin brothers sincere attitude towards her had touched her heart and her heart have started to consider them as her own .
And when she saw that there was another woman who was trying to get in between her and Lin Rui , she - cough - got jealous .
She , a thirty year old woman stuck in the body of a fifteen year old girl actually got jealous of a girl who was uglier than her ! How embarrassing , what happened to her abundant confidence ? Why was she reacting like this ?
So childish !
Su Wan covered her face and stomped her feet , how was she supposed to face Lin Rui like this , will he tease her ? Or will he still be angry at her ?
Should she say that she was jealous and said something hurtful ?
But actually confessing that she was jealous that was just too embarrassing wasn't it ?
No! So what if it was embarrassing , she made a mistake and she need to amend it , she can't just sit here and hope that Lin Rui would come and patch things up with her ? And even if he does that , then it would mean that he was a gentleman but she wasn't an unreasonable lady either !
She can't just go all bratty and turn her face left , despite knowing that she was also in the wrong can she ?
No she can't !
Now that Su Wan had decided what she wanted to do , she hurriedly jumped to her feet and tidied her clothes and hair before rushing out of her room to find Lin Rui . However , it turned out that she didn't need to search for him because the second she stepped out , Lin Rui who was pacing around in front of her room , stopped in his tracks then he too hurriedly walked over to her .
Last night , after his brother had guided him in the right direction , Lin Rui realised that instead of leaving Su Wan alone , he should have stayed together with her , tried to talk a little more with her . If he did maybe , Su Wan would have told him how she didn't like seeing another woman around him .
His actions last night was really stupid !
" Ah Rui"
" Wan Wan "
Both of them came to a stop in front of each other and Su Wan who was in such a hurry to explain herself and to reconcile with Lin Rui , she abruptly held his hands , clutching his wrists in the soft palms of her .
The soft touch , made Lin Rui shiver and he couldn't help but mentally give himself another kick in the head , if not for him being stupid he would have been able to sleep holding this soft hand last night , Aiye , he was so regretful - now for the sake of touching this softness again , he had to wait for a total of four days again ! So regretful !
" About last night -"
" Wan Wan last night -"
Both of them spoke together then stopped , almost against their will , their lips curved in a smile as they gazed at each other , where was the anger from last night ? If someone saw them like this , they might think that the both of them were truly and madly in love with each other .
Su Wan was dressed in a soft cotton pink dress that flickered around with the wind , because she haven't cleaned herself properly , the air messed her air as her ink like locks flew around with the wind , dressed in a pale blue shirt and pants , Lin Rui too looked handsome and dashing , together the both of them looked like a beautiful painting . If only Luo Chenxi could see these two together right now , she would know that it was impossible for her to actually come between them and how lacking she was .
" You go first " said Su Wan still smiling , now that she had seen Lin Rui's smiling face , she was a little relaxed at least he wasn't angry with her .
" No , you can go first " shaking his head said Lin Rui gently , now that he knew that Su Wan felt something for him , his gaze was even more soft and full of doting . At first this marriage was just a marriage of convenience but now , to Lin Rui it was much more , the soft buds of spring flowers had bloomed in his heart and warmth bubbled in his eyes as he gazed at his wife , this was his wife , the woman who loved and adored him despite his poor background , she loved and liked him for he was , not for what he will be - how can he not dote on her ?
