The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu's Pampered Wife

Chapter 1577: Taking A Step Back (1)

The couple, who were speeding away in the car, naturally would not have realized that was happening.

After turning at several traffic ports, Dongfang Liuyun drove straight into the old city, and finally stopped in front of a small restaurant near the river.

The atmosphere of the small restaurant was very elegant and clean. It was close to the wharf by the river. Business was usually good, but today was Tuesday, and it was not as crowded as usual on weekends and evenings.

Dongfang Liuyun found a seat by the window and sat down. From this seat, she could see the fishing boats below the window and the busy pier across from her.

She took the menu from the waiter and looked at it without holding back. She asked, “You’re not allergic to seafood, right?”

“Yes.”

Qi Lei responded, and Dongfang Liuyun looked away from the menu to look at him. Seeing that he responded, she was about to order from the waiter, but Qi Lei was already one step ahead of her. He listed some dishes on his own, and Dongfang Liuyun realized that he had ordered vegetarian dishes!

They were very light dishes too!

He only ordered a bowl of shredded chicken congee!

She immediately frowned and said in confusion, “It’s my treat today. You can choose the more expensive dishes. I brought you here to have a seafood feast, not be a white rabbit eating vegetables. I’m someone who can’t live without meat. ”

Qi lei glanced at her and reached out to take the menu from her hand. He closed it and handed it to the waiter beside him. He said very politely, “That is all. Please hurry up. ”

“Yes, Sir! ” The waiter quickly took the menu and replied.

“Wait! One kilogram of braised prawns, a signature seafood congee, and a fruit platter. ”

Dongfang Liuyun saw that the waiter was about to leave and immediately spoke.

“Someone with gastritis should not eat seafood for the time being. Did you not hear what the doctor said?”

Qi Lei stopped her. He waved at the waiter and the waiter left.

“Did the doctor say that?”

Dongfang Liuyun raised her brows and asked doubtfully, “Didn’t he say that I’m practically recovered now? ”

Qi lei glanced at her and did not say anything. He just quietly raised his hand to clean the cutleries for her and then poured water for her. She quietly took it and took a simple sip. She looked at him with interest and said softly, “You’re quite concerned about me.”

It was a plain statement, but the smile on her face was filled with a faint warmth.

“You’re now the official Mrs. Qi. If I don’t worry about you, even I would have to doubt my own character,” answered Qi Lei very calmly.

He did not even look up at her. He quietly poured water for himself, picked it up, and took a sip. He looked out at the scenery of the river outside the window. His handsome face was very calm, but at this moment, it seemed... illusory and distant.

This guy was quite a handsome man when he was quiet.

She rested her chin on one hand and watched him quietly.

..

You stand on the bridge and gaze at the scenery. Those who gaze at the scenery are looking at you from upstairs. The moon decorated your window, while you decorated other people’s dreams..

At this moment, Dongfang Liuyun did not know why, but such a familiar phrase suddenly appeared in her mind. She followed his gaze and looked down as well, the dock was very busy...

After a long while, she retracted her gaze and looked at him. She pondered, and then suddenly stretched out her slender, fair fingertips and brushed away the muslin curtain that flew onto his shoulder.

“Thank you. I’m grateful from the bottom of my heart,” she suddenly said this.

“Were your previous gratitude not from the bottom of your heart as well?”

As she finished speaking, Qi Lei replied, “Also, the words ‘thank you’ and ‘sorry’ are the two most meaningless phrases in this world. ”

“I didn’t want to say it at first, but now I feel that it might be more appropriate to say it. You’re a person who easily touches others, and you’re purer than many people. However, such people are usually lonely, or even alone.”

As she spoke, she took another sip of water.

“What about you then?”

Qi Lei asked with a calm gaze. “You rarely talk about yourself.”

“I’m not a person who likes to reminisce... ”

After she said this, the two of them suddenly fell silent again.

..

The plane landed steadily on the runway of the airport.

When Su Chen dragged his exhausted self out of the airport, it was already late at night.

Secretary He was already waiting outside the airport early in the morning. Once Su Chen came out, he got into the car and sat in the passenger seat.

It was the time when the lights were dim. The brilliant lights made the city even more gorgeous and charming. However, even such scenery did not seem to affect Su Chen’s mood..

He wanted to go back as soon as possible, but he did not know if he should go back as soon as possible.

He had not called her for a few days, and she did not look for him.

“Chief Su, Chief Huang and the others are at Emperor Entertainment. Do you want to go over now? ”

Secretary He drove steadily. He looked at Su Chen, who was leaning against the back of the chair and resting with his eyes closed, and asked carefully.

Su Chen listened and slowly opened his eyes. He glanced at the street outside the car window. After some thought, he replied, “I’m not going. Let’s go home. ”

“But, Chief Huang... ”

Secretary He wanted to say something, but Su Chen had already closed his eyes again. Finally, he did not dare to continue.

The car sped along. When it reached the entrance of Su Chen’s villa, it was already past midnight.

Su Chen quickly got out of the car and carried his suitcase. “You go back first. I’ll drive myself back to the bureau tomorrow morning. Prepare the report for the meeting tomorrow. ”

After saying these few words, he took out his keys from his pocket and walked home.

“Yes, Chief Su! ”

Secretary He answered respectfully.

..

‘Kacha—”

When the door opened, Ji Zitong was sitting on the sofa in the living room, flipping through the company documents. When she heard the door open, she subconsciously turned her head to look —

Su Chen’s tall and upright figure immediately came into view.

He was also used to finding her first thing every time he entered through the door. Su Chen’s sharp eyes searched around and soon saw the woman sitting on the sofa staring at him in a daze.

The husband and wife did not speak. They just looked at each other silently.

After a long while, Su Chen finally averted his gaze, turned around, and closed the door. He then changed his shoes.

Ji Zitong lowered her eyes and struggled for a while. Finally, she could not help but stand up slowly. She poured a glass of water and carefully walked toward him...

“You’re back... ”

Ji Zitong handed the water to him and said this as she reached out her hand to him.
