“Yeah, I heard about it from my big sister,” Luo Jin’an’s heart ached when he mentioned his eldest sister.
His parents, brother, sister, and the Wei army had gotten wiped out on the battlefield three years ago. He would avoid recalling what happened back then if he could.
Su Binglan could see Luo Jin’an’s expression under the moonlight. Her heart ached for him. She hugged him tightly and said, “I’m sorry for reminding you of the past.”
She knew the Wei family was loyal. Even if Luo Jin’an’s eldest daughter were married, she would still fight on the battlefield. Although she was a woman, she was not inferior to men. Su Binglan genuinely admired Luo Jin’an’s sister. Luo Jin’an gently rubbed his wife’s hair, saying, “Don’t apologize, silly.”
He looked at Su Binglan profoundly and intensely. His emotions resembled a flood about to overflow. Su Binglan raised her head and met his gaze, causing her heart to pound.
Her eyelashes flattered as if she dared no longer look into Luo Jin’an’s eyes. However, Luo Jin’an saw her expression. He calmed himself down and lowered his head slightly.
Su Binglan’s heartbeat and breathing quickened when she felt his aura. Luo Jin’an kissed her forehead and caused her heart to race. Su Binglan could not help but blush and tug at her husband’s clothes.
Luo Jin’an lowered his head and saw her tense expression. He smiled and whispered, “Are you afraid?”
Su Binglan’s mind went blank as she instinctively replied, “N-No, no, I’m not afraid.’
Although she denied being afraid, her body tensed up. She felt a tickle in her ear when Luo Jin’an whispered to her. He chuckled when he saw Su Binglan’s reaction.
Su Binglan felt she could never fight back whenever she faced her husband. He could always move her, even if he simply chuckled. His laugh was so contagious that she could not help but feel intoxicated.
Luo Jin’an slowly sat up and pulled his wife into his arms. Then, he lowered his head and looked at her profoundly. When his lips fell on hers, she felt suffocated.
After some time, Luo Jin’an let go of her and said, “Be good and sleep.”
Su Binglan was still dazed and had trouble gathering herself. She leaned into his arms and breathed to calm herself. Luo Jin’an even patted her back gently to help her calm down.
At that moment, Su Binglan felt her husband’s mood had greatly improved. She thought she should always comfort him this way.
The two did not speak for a moment. The couple was there for each other, even though they were silent. After a while, Su Binglan finally felt sleepy. When she was about to fall asleep, she considered how she would soon turn fifteen.
Everyone considered fifteen-year-olds as adults in ancient times.
Soon after, Su Binglan fell asleep. Luo Jin’an heard her light breathing and pulled the blanket over her before tucking in the corners.
Su Binglan felt safe with him around and fell into an even deeper sleep. However, Luo Jin’an was not sleepy because his mind was racing.
Meanwhile, Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua also had trouble sleeping, so they discussed the Ye family.
“What would happen if Wenvvu and Young Master Feiran become sworn brothers?” Shen Qiuhua knew how pure her son was. She did not want to overthink it, but she could not help but worry about Su Wenwu.
Su Fengmao answered, “Stop overthinking and worrying. Didn’t Binglan suggest inviting Young Master Feiran for dinner? We’ll get to know him when we meet him for dinner.’
After some thought, Shen Qiuhua said, “You’re right. I’m not worried about Binglan’s work, but Wenzhe and Yinyin are living a humble life. We don’t have to worry about Wenzhe.
“Meanwhile, Wenxiu is constantly fiddling with his medicinal herbs and treating people. It’s Wenvvu I’m worried about most because he’s simple-minded.”
Su Fengmao instinctively said, “The master and madam of the Ye family should have excellent temperaments. We shouldn’t have problems with Young Master Feiran’s visit.”
Shen Qiuhua thought her husband’s words were rather strange. “How do you know they have excellent temperaments?”
Su Fengmao was puzzled, thinking, ‘Wait, how do I know? I just spoke instinctively.’
“I-I was just saying.”
Shen Qiuhua turned and looked at Su Fengmao. She was just as puzzled because Su Fengmao’s demeanor was not ordinary sometimes.
However, according to her understanding, she knew Su Fengmao was Old Master Su and Old Madam Su’s son. There was no mistake about it. Therefore, Su Fengmao should not be like Shen Qiuhua, who had another identity. Still, Shen Qiuhua remembered Su Fengmao when he was young and handsome. He did not exude any coldness or indifference. He wore black and looked very charming.
Shen Qiuhua and Su Fengmao fell in love with each other at first sight. “Fenmao, why were you in Flower County when you were fifteen?”
Su Fengmao was puzzled when he heard his wife’s question. “I remember having something to do but passed by Flower County.”
However, he had forgotten what he did while passing by.
“What was it?”
“It was a long time ago, I forgot,” Su Fengmao said.
‘How could you forget? Did your parents tell you to go to Flower County for some reason?” Shen Qiuhua asked.
After careful consideration, he thought his parents would not send him to Flower County for anything. He had lost several years of his memories, and even his parents did not know about them.
Su Fengmao was highly puzzled..
