It seemed as if he were her lover. Tang Youyou had such an "illusion" for a moment.
What was she thinking? She dismissed this illusion from her mind. He was only trying to keep his job, and besides, he already had someone in his heart.
She was lying in bed resting, her hand on her stomach. It seemed bigger than before, but she still couldn't feel the baby moving. She would be able to feel it in a month or two.
She wondered when Rong Xun would be able to finish dealing with his matters.
Spring had arrived, but there was still no sign of him.
Maybe he was living a happy life with his "wife"?
At this thought, Tang Youyou shot up from the bed. She felt anxious and restless.
No, no, no. Rong Xun was not such a person.
"How do you know he isn't? He even got married to someone. She is now his wife, legally wedded!"
Impossible! He must have had no choice but to do so. He would surely come for her after he was done with his matters. Otherwise, he would not have left Ye Yue with her.
"Don't be stupid. If that were the case, then why has there been no news at all for so long? He must have forgotten about you long ago."
Tang Youyou was feeling restless because of the different thoughts in her head. She stood up, biting her finger as she paced back and forth in the room.
No, she had to find Ye Yue and ask about Rong Xun's current situation.
If, as she had thought, Rong Xun was now lovey-dovey with his "wife", then perhaps she would immediately pick up a knife and go look for him.
With an anxious gait, Tang Youyou slammed the door shut, startling those downstairs.
Tie Xue and Ye Yue both looked in the direction of the person coming down the stairs. Seeing how anxious she looked, they thought something bad had happened and quickly went up to her.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Ye Yue asked. Even Tie Shou, who was usually calm, was a little nervous.
When Tang Youyou saw his friend there, she did not want to ask in front of a stranger.
She grabbed Ye Yue and dragged him to one side. She said to Tie Shou with a look of apology on her face, "Sorry for interrupting your catch-up. I have something urgent to talk to him about."
Ye Yue was confused. What was it?
Tang Youyou dragged him to a deserted area and did not know how to start.
Not knowing what was going on, Ye Yue also started to get anxious when he saw her hesitating to speak.
"Miss Tang, what happened? You can say it."
Tang Youyou took a deep breath and finally looked up straight at him. She said, "Where is Rong Xun now?"
When Ye Yue heard this, he was stunned for a moment. Why did she suddenly ask about the master?
How was he supposed to answer her? He could not say that the master was currently in this place.
"This, the master, he—"
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard her speak again.
"Is he currently getting along well with his legally wedded wife? Are they living a happy life? Does he still remember my existence?"
This series of questions stunned Ye Yue.
How could what she said be true? The master hated the Lin family to the core now. He had only married her because of the antidote and the power in Lin Yuan's hands.
"The master is naturally always thinking about Miss Tang. Why are you suddenly like this?"
Tang Youyou did not know why she was like this. She just suddenly thought of it.
"I'm fine. Since he is always thinking about me, then why is there not even a single letter?"
Her disappointed expression looked extremely sad. Even Ye Yue, who was a straight man, could not help but feel heartache.
That was right. Even though the master was currently by her side, Miss Tang did not know. The master had miscalculated.
As Tang Youyou spoke, her tears could not help but fall one by one.
Ye Yue's eyes widened. What was going on?
"Tang—" He did not know how to console her. He could only hand her his handkerchief at a loss.
Their conversation was heard clearly by Tie Shou, who was hiding to one side. Seeing Tang Youyou crying, he did not know what to do. Should he quickly inform the master?
Just as he was about to go downstairs to inform the master, Rong Xun walked past him quickly, heading in their direction.
Tang Youyou realized that she had lost control of her emotions. She sniffed her nose, wiped her tears, and sobbed as she said, "Don't be nervous. I'm fine. I'll go back to my room first."
Just as she was about to turn around, she did not expect to bump into someone.
"Sorry."
She lowered her head and walked past him. She looked listless and did not have her usual liveliness.
When Rong Xun saw her moist eyes and red eyes, his mind was instantly struck by this adorable face. He did not know what rationality was.
At this moment, he did not want to face her as Xun Rong. While she was not looking, he took off the mask on his face.
"You'er."
For a moment, Tang Youyou thought she was having auditory hallucinations, but this voice was so real that it seemed to be behind her.
She could not hold it in and turned around to confirm. When she saw the face she had been missing, the tears that had just stopped flowing out like a spring.
Tang Youyou could not believe her eyes. She blinked her eyes with tears in them and confirmed it several times. The face in front of her did not disappear.
Rong Xun walked closer step by step and finally came in front of her.
"It's me." He endured his intense impulse as he said in a low, hoarse voice. He stretched out his hands and wanted to embrace her.
When Ye Yue saw this, he disappeared from the spot immediately. After turning the corner, he saw Tie Shou lying on the wall looking intently. He glared at him.
"Don't look."
When Tie Shou saw that he was blocking his view, he grabbed him.
Tang Youyou could not believe that the person standing in front of her was Rong Xun. She reached out and pinched his face. The feeling was very real.
But she still did not dare to believe it easily. She raised her hand and slapped his face.
"Pa—" A loud sound was heard.
The two people hiding behind the wall were immediately stunned. They both widened their eyes.
Tang Youyou asked, "Does it hurt?"
Not only was Rong Xun not angry, he even showed a doting smile.
"It hurts."
Only then did Tang Youyou let him hug her tightly. She also wrapped her arms around his neck and felt the warmth on his body.
There was someone whispering in the dark. "Wow, the master has completely fallen in love."
It was Tie Shou who had spoken. Although he had heard Ye Yue's description before, he knew how much the master doted on his wife, but he did not expect it to be to such an extent.
It was really hard to believe that the person standing there was still their master who was decisive and ruthless.
He guessed that Wen Xue would immediately come forward to verify if his master had been replaced if he saw this.
Tang Youyou stood on tiptoe and bit his white neck hard.
Although Rong Xun felt pain, he endured it and did not say a word. He let her vent the emotions in her heart.
"You'er, I'm sorry."
He felt a hot drop fall on the place that had just been bitten. He used more strength in the arms that were wrapped around her.
