Chapter 664 Has Rui Been Inconsiderate?
"What happened?"
Xi Ying asked his wife when he noticed that she was not asleep.
Though her eyes were closed, the flickering of her eyelashes in every few seconds was enough for him to know that she was not able to sleep.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable? Or do you want to eat something?"
He asked his first few words with a deep frown on his forehead and last words very softly as he caressed her waist gently.
Li Rui opened her eyes and looked at him silently for a few moments.
Suddenly she asked him a very weird question
"How do you comfort someone?"
Xi Ying looked at her with surprise-filled eyes and then chuckled suddenly.
Caressing her hair with a smile on his lips, he whispered curiously
"Who do you want to comfort?"
If it was Xi Ling, then she needed to know that she was already the best at it.
However, Xi Ying looked at his wife with narrowed eyes when she looked hesitant to answer his question.
"Who is it?"
This time, he asked without any amusement in his voice.
He didn't want to sound controlling but the fact that she was going to comfort someone else other than him or his son to whom he had given this much space so reluctantly, didn't settle well with him.
Li Rui pressed her lips in a thin line and didn't speak.
Xi Ying sighed.
"Tell me, Rui. Otherwise, I will start making assumptions on my own."
He said helplessly. Taking her hand in his, he put it on his chest and he said honestly
"I already don't feel much comfortable here."
Li Rui blinked.
At the same time, she couldn't help but remember whatever he had said to her on the night when Gu Li and his shadow guards had attacked.
'Look only at me.'
Was it weird that the remembrance of those words would always make her feel something weird inside her belly?
It must be the child inside her stomach…yes. It must be.
She thought as she tried to keep a composed expression on her face.
"It is Senior Brother."
She told him a moment later.
Xi Ying frowned again.
However, when he saw Li Rui looking at him calmly, he sighed and tried his best not to frown anymore. He even tried not to sound resentful as he said
"Why do you want to comfort him? What happened to him? …Is it something about the old master?"
Li Rui shook her head.
She suddenly took Xi Ying's hand in hers and started to play with his long and slender fingers.
Xi Ying smiled.
Did she know that Xi Ling does the same sometimes? Ha…he had always been sure that their son had gone on his wife.
He let her do what she was doing and patiently waited for her to answer his question. He knew that she was hesitant about whether she should tell him or not.
But he also wanted to check her bottom line.
Would she really share everything with him?
It was a few moments later, Li Rui spoke again. She told him everything that Brother Wang had told her.
After hearing everything, Xi Ying looked calm as well as thoughtful.
Li Rui stopped playing with his fingers and looked at him curiously as she asked
"Ying, have I been heartless and selfish?"
Xi Ying came out of his trance and looked at his wife with surprise wondering why was she thinking this. When he asked her the same, he didn't know what he should say in response to her answer.
"I didn't realize that Senior Brother cared for me so much. I was just thinking about repaying him. He saved my life so I also went to the forest to find the herb to treat the old master when he was bitten by a snake. I knew that the old master was very important to him.
I wanted to do something for him in return so that I could lessen the burden on my heart. However, in his eyes, I was one of his own."
"Ying, was I too inconsiderate of his feelings?"
Li Rui asked as she looked at him with a pair of clean black eyes.
She looked like a child who was trying to find out whether he did something wrong or not. And if he did, then how should he correct it.
Xi Ying smiled and kissed her forehead.
"No."
He said firmly.
He knew that she had always been like this. It was not because she was too inconsiderate but it was because she had never been given so much exposure to experience the feelings.
Xi Ying knew that a large part of her life, Li Rui had spent in Li Manor …between her books. Even when she was out, either she was attacked or she was trying to gain knowledge.
No one could blame her if she didn't understand feelings to a great extent. She was not at fault.
"It is not your fault."
He told the same to her.
"You didn't know about his past. Even if you knew, you could not have stayed, Rui. General Li would not have you let meet any one of them if he had come to know of everything."
Li Rui nodded her head completely agreeing with him.
That's why she never told her father anything about all this.
Even Li Hua and Li Mei knew everything as she had told them after she had returned from the forest but she had also taken a promise from them that they would not tell anything to her father.
She even had to practice when her father was not in the Manor.
Though later, she had told him that she wanted to learn swordsmanship and then pretending to start from a scratch, she learned the swordsmanship and arrow shooting, which she was actually practicing, in front of his father so that he would not doubt her.
"But I still want him to know that he is not alone."
Xi Ying nodded his head.
Somehow he no longer felt any resentment towards Gu Li because he got to know the reason for his attachment to his wife.
Since he had saved his wife's life, Xi Ying was also going to give Gu Li in return.
He would not let Li Rui feel that she owed anything to anyone.
