Rong Ci: "..."
She felt a bit awkward, but not overly uncomfortable. After all, they were husband and wife, and the things they should do had been done quite a few times in the early years of their marriage.
Over the years after getting married, although she had always hoped that Feng Tingshen would fall in love with her, she had never deliberately tried to seduce him.
It wasn't that she hadn't thought about it, but she felt it would be ineffective, so she never put it into action.
Therefore, the pajamas she usually wore at home were basically ordinary two - piece sets with loose collars.
And the top she was wearing now happened to be a loose - fitting one, and it was quite long. Even without wearing pants, it wasn't particularly revealing.
She was certain that she had no intention of deliberately seducing him.
However, to avoid misunderstandings, she still explained, "I just forgot to get my pants..."
Rong Ci thought her top was loose and long - hemmed, so not wearing sleep pants wasn't really revealing.
But she forgot that she had an excellent figure, with a well - proportioned body and beautiful curves. The front - short - back - long style of the top perfectly showcased her fair, jade - like and evenly - shaped long legs, while the triangular area was faintly visible...
Coupled with the fact that she had just taken a bath, her face was tender, and her skin was snow - white and radiant, giving off a very clean and innocent feeling.
So, this pajama top gave off the look of a boyfriend's shirt on her, which was even more alluring than wearing sexy pajamas.
Hearing her words, Feng Tingshen glanced at her twice, retracted his gaze, and said indifferently, "Okay."
Seeing that he didn't misunderstand, Rong Ci heaved a sigh of relief, said nothing more, and turned to go to the cloakroom.
After she got dressed and came out of the cloakroom, Feng Tingshen was still in the room.
Looking at him, Rong Ci thought there was nothing to talk about between them. After glancing at him, she walked past him, sat down in front of the dressing table, and started her skincare routine.
Feng Tingshen then got up, went to the cloakroom to get his clothes, and entered the bathroom to take a bath.
It was already quite late. After finishing her skincare, Rong Ci went straight to bed.
The last time she shared a bed with Feng Tingshen at the old mansion, she was completely calm and fell asleep quickly after lying down.
Perhaps because Feng Tingshen had agreed to help her just now, her mood was rather complicated at the moment. She had been lying in bed for a while but still couldn't fall asleep.
At this time, Feng Tingshen had also finished taking a bath and came out of the bathroom.
After a while, Feng Tingshen turned off the lights and lay down on the other side of the bed.
Rong Ci didn't open her eyes, but she could feel a certain distance between them.
Feng Tingshen had no intention of talking to her.
The room was very quiet.
After a long time, Rong Ci's consciousness gradually blurred from being awake, and she fell asleep unconsciously.
The next day.
When Rong Ci woke up, she was the only one left in the bed.
After washing up and changing her clothes, when she went downstairs, the old lady had also woken up.
Seeing her, just as the old lady was about to speak, Feng Tingshen came back from outside.
He was wearing gray sportswear, his hair was slightly wet and sweaty. Judging by his appearance, he should have just finished a run.
He glanced at the old lady and greeted, "Morning."
The old lady looked at the two of them, but she wasn't very happy. "You... both of you got up so early?"
Hearing this, Rong Ci felt a bit strange.
Wasn't it a good thing that she and Feng Tingshen had an early - to - bed and early - to - rise routine?
Why did it seem...
Just as she was thinking this, she heard Feng Tingshen beside her say calmly, "I've studied pharmacology. That soup of yours has no effect on me."
After saying that, he turned around and went upstairs.
Rong Ci was stunned. Two seconds later, she realized that Feng Tingshen meant that the old lady had put medicine in the soup they drank last night...
And it was that kind of medicine.
But since Feng Tingshen knew about the effects of the medicine and saw through it, it seemed he hadn't drunk the soup last night.
Rong Ci never expected that the old lady would do such a thing.
She frowned. Before she could say anything, the old lady sighed in dissatisfaction, "Sometimes, it's not always a good thing for a grandson to know too much. Sigh, I still want another grandson. Xiao Ci, if you have time, work harder with Tingshen, okay?"
Rong Ci: "..."
She didn't know what to say.
Although Feng Tingshen had agreed to help her last night, she knew that there was no possibility for her and Feng Tingshen to stay together any longer.
If something really had happened between her and Feng Tingshen last night, that would have been truly terrible.
As for having another child, it was even more out of the question.
Just as she was thinking this, Feng Jingxin also came downstairs.
Seeing her, thinking of Feng Jingxin's admiration and fondness for Lin Wu, Rong Ci's expression turned a bit colder.
During breakfast, Feng Tingshen still sat down beside her automatically.
But neither of them took the initiative to communicate.
Yesterday, Rong Ci took Feng Jingxin to school. Today, Feng Jingxin asked Feng Tingshen to take her.
Feng Tingshen replied, "Got it."
The old lady looked at Rong Ci and said, "Then Tingshen, you should also take Xiao Ci with you. Anyway, you're in the same—"
Rong Ci interrupted her, "No need, Grandma. He has a lot of social engagements and won't always be at the company. It's inconvenient for me without a car."
But the old lady wouldn't let it go. "So what if he has social engagements? If you don't have a car to come back after work, just call the driver in advance to pick you up, right?"
Before Rong Ci could say anything, the old lady made a decision, "That's settled."
Rong Ci: "..."
She looked at Feng Tingshen.
Feng Tingshen didn't say anything, which actually meant he agreed.
After breakfast, Rong Ci had no choice but to go and take Feng Tingshen's car with Feng Jingxin.
Feng Jingxin got into the car very familiarly.
She was actually especially happy today because both Rong Ci and Feng Tingshen were taking her to school.
Rong Ci, however, couldn't remember when she had last taken Feng Tingshen's car.
After Feng Jingxin got into the car, just as Rong Ci was about to follow suit, Feng Tingshen suddenly said, "You sit on the other side."
Rong Ci paused, feeling a bit awkward, but she still walked around to the other side and got into the car when the driver opened the door for her.
There was Feng Jingxin between her and Feng Tingshen.
Feng Tingshen seemed to have something to do and was replying to messages on his phone.
Rong Ci looked straight ahead. Feng Jingxin, however, burrowed into Feng Tingshen's arms, stuck her head out from his chest, and stared at his phone. "Ah, it's Aunt Wuwu."
Feng Tingshen's eyes were still on the phone. He replied with an "Mhm" in response to Feng Jingxin.
Perhaps remembering that Rong Ci was also there, Rong Ci noticed that Feng Jingxin secretly glanced at her twice, and then continued to stare at Feng Tingshen's phone. She didn't reveal the content of Feng Tingshen and Lin Wu's chat.
After a while, perhaps feeling bored, Feng Jingxin got out of Feng Tingshen's arms and opened the storage compartment of the car.
Rong Ci really didn't mean to look on purpose.
But out of the corner of her eye, she happened to catch sight of the things in the storage compartment.
There was lipstick, a small women's handbag, and a small backpack that Feng Jingxin had used before...
There was no need to guess to know that the lipstick and handbag belonged to Lin Wu.
Seeing this, Rong Ci finally understood why Feng Tingshen hadn't let her sit on his side when she got in the car.
Because that seat was the one Lin Wu was used to sitting in.
He wouldn't allow her to sit there.
