The next morning, Ye Nanshen had already dressed and was ready for the day when Rong Qi woke up.
“It’s still early, you should sleep some more,” said Ye Nanshen.
Rong Qi shook her head and said, “I can’t sleep anymore. I’m going to check on the university.”
She got out of bed and joined Ye Nanshen for breakfast. On the table were a bunch of tonics and other trinkets.
Seeing Rong Qi’s puzzled gaze, Mrs. Hong chuckled and explained, “These were all sent over by Mr. Sheng. These past few days, Mr. Sheng has been sending stuff to Clearcreek Mansion almost every day. You should pick out what you like, keep the toys and the rest I’ll have the butler store in the warehouse.”
Rong Qi walked over to the pile of trinkets. Almost all of them were children’s toys. There were toy lion heads, robots, Doraemon figures, remote-controlled cars, and Barbie dolls. There were toys suitable for both boys and girls.
Sheng Jian really went to some trouble to collect them.
Rong Qi picked out a small lion and tiger plushie from the mix, while Ye Nanshen chose a couple of pink dresses suitable for little girls. The rest they instructed Mrs. Hong to store in the warehouse.
Ye Nanshen gazed at Rong Qi’s selection and took a sip of congee. He said, “I’ll be back late today. You should sleep early and don’t wait for me.”
“Okay,” Rong Qi nodded, then turned to look at the man in a white shirt. His side profile was perfection. Deep-set eyes, dense brows, a high nose bridge, thin lips, and a prominent Adam’s apple. Every detail was just right.
As Ye Nanshen drank his congee, he felt Rong Qi’s gaze on him. Turning slightly, he met her eyes. His lips curled up into a pleasing smile and said, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Ye Nanshen smiled and so did Rong Qi. She said, “No reason.”
But Rong Qi’s gaze didn’t move away. She felt pleased with her choice; the man she married was so pleasant to look at.
Ye Nanshen wiped his hands, then turned back to face her. Their eyes locked once more. After a few seconds, Ye Nanshen suddenly reached out to cover the back of Rong Qi’s head, pulling her into his embrace. Leaning over, his eyes filled with tenderness, he whispered, “You started this, no backing out now.” With that, Ye Nanshen pressed his lips to hers. The kiss was gentle and slow like a soft rain. But it was Ye Nanshen who pulled away first. He said, “Behave yourself, stop getting into fights. Use the phone if you need to. Okay?”
Rong Qi’s cheeks were flushed. She said, “Your territory, your rules, right? Even if it’s not your territory, you still get involved?”
“If it’s not mine, I’ll take it and make it mine. I have to protect you,” Ye Nanshen’s hand cradled Rong Qi’s head, his voice intoxicatingly smooth, like aged wine.
Rong Qi chuckled and stood up to see him off.
After Ye Nanshen left, Rong Qi went upstairs to change her clothes, then took her laptop and left the house.
These days, Rong Qi had been hearing from Merica about frequent interference from the Seven Sinisters, hindering their operations. It was time to draw the attention back and deal with the situation herself.
Rong Qi still made her way to Capital University, opened her laptop, and saw a message from Shangguan Ze, [Boss, the plan is hindered, might have to delay my return to the country.]
Rong Qi frowned and typed a reply, [Now’s the time to shift focus back here. Leave the rest to me to handle.]
After responding, Rong Qi opened another webpage and her fingers flew across the keyboard, rows of code scrolling rapidly across the screen. Having typed the last character, she closed her laptop and dialed a number.
The phone was picked up almost immediately on the first ring, and a respectful voice came through, “Ms.. Rong, how may I assist you?”
