Chapter 350 Promise under the Moonlight
Chapter 350 Promise under the Moonlight
Su Chen stayed around for a while and went straight home when it was time to get off work, as the equipment had just arrived, and Lin Ruoxue and Doctor Gaia still had quite a few things to discuss, so they couldn't leave for the time being.
After getting home, Su Chen helped Mother Wang with the cooking, and they chatted and joked together, which was quite enjoyable.
Mother Wang was becoming more and more impressed with this son-in-law. She couldn't quite put her finger on it, but he was definitely different from the other well-to-do families' sons-in-law.
Since Lin Ruoxue was going to come back very late, he and Mother Wang ate first. Whenever it was just the two of them, Mother Wang would share some household anecdotes, and Su Chen always listened patiently, occasionally offering his own opinion.
If it were Ruoxue, she definitely wouldn't do this. Although she was almost like a family member to Mother Wang, she really didn't have the same patience as Su Chen did to listen attentively, which was probably related to her personality.
Before they knew it, dinner time had passed, and Su Chen sat on the sofa to rest. Occasionally, he would flip through the fashion magazines Lin Ruoxue read, eat some of Lin Ruoxue's favorite cantaloupe, while Mother Wang naturally started cleaning up the pots and pans.
Since they didn't know what time Lin Ruoxue would be back, Su Chen asked Mother Wang to finish up and rest. He could reheat the food for her later, which wasn't difficult anyway, so there was no need to keep the elderly lady waiting.
Almost at 10 o'clock, Lin Ruoxue came back home, tired from a year's worth of work. Su Chen, of course, provided her with slippers, took her bag, heated up the food—his service couldn't be more attentive, and Lin Ruoxue seemed to have become accustomed to his meticulous care.
She found it strange, as normally, men have their pride and are not keen on doing these things for a woman, but her husband seemed to take genuine pleasure in it.
If you didn't let him do it, he might actually get upset!
When Lin Ruoxue was having dinner, he sat by her side, quietly watching her eat, and occasionally made casual conversation.@@@@
"Wife, I see you're really tired; don't work anymore tonight. Money can't be earned all at once,"
Su Chen said, seeing that she was eating without much energy, and couldn't help but feel heartache.
"Okay,"
Lin Ruoxue replied, her expression and tone very calm, but inside she was very happy about Su Chen's concern for her.
"Let's go, take a walk. It's good for health after dinner,"
Just as Lin Ruoxue finished her meal and was preparing to go upstairs to rest, Su Chen suddenly grabbed her delicate hand.
"Forget about it. I'm tired, and I don't want to move anymore,"
Lin Ruoxue just wanted to get a good night's sleep right now.
"No, let's just walk a couple of circles. You never exercise; how can that be okay?"
Su Chen went behind her and, pushing her, headed towards the door.
"You really are a scoundrel!"
Lin Ruoxue said half laughing, half crying, exasperated by his whimsical demands for her cooperation. Really!
It was as if fate had tied them together, binding them ever tighter...
"Hey, how did I end up a philandering playboy?"
Su Chen was quite dissatisfied with Lin Ruoxue's assessment of him, thinking to himself, if I really were such a playboy, would you still be okay?
I would have forcefully carried you off a long time ago and taken care of business!
"How are you not?"
Lin Ruoxue gave him a resentful glance, thinking that he hardly ever acted decently around her, and she couldn't even count how many times he had taken advantage of her.
If it weren't for her constant vigilance, he might have already breached her final defense!
"Alright, if I'm a philandering playboy, are you happy now?"
Su Chen didn't argue further, and Lin Ruoxue quieted down as well.
The two of them walked a short distance more and casually took a seat on a row of benches, where Su Chen quickly took off his jacket and put it over her as he saw Lin Ruoxue shiver from the cold.
Lin Ruoxue was momentarily stunned, then rested her head lightly on Su Chen's shoulder.
"Husband, do you think we can always be like this?"
Lin Ruoxue asked as she gazed at the bright moon in the sky.
"Of course, we can, unless one day you find me disagreeable and kick me to the curb. Otherwise, I'd never leave you even if it killed me."
Su Chen withdrew his arm and wrapped it around Lin Ruoxue, pulling her closer into his embrace.
"As long as you don't leave me, I won't leave you either!"
Lin Ruoxue said solemnly, realizing that she could no longer live without this man...
"Then we will be together forever!"
Su Chen likewise looked at the full moon in the sky and said:
"No matter who it is, if they try to tear us apart, I will fight gods and kill Buddhas in their defense!"
"Good! I'll remember this. Don't you ever forget what you said today, okay!"
Lin Ruoxue burrowed into Su Chen's embrace and said with a laugh, feeling an exceptional warmth in Su Chen's arms...
At that moment, neither of them could have imagined that because of this very promise, in the not-so-distant future, Su Chen would indeed unleash a shocking and bloody storm that would astonish countless people for life! Find adventures at My Virtual Library Empire
