Sweet Wife Arrives: Mr. CEO, Please Pamper Me-Chapter 714: V584: Love is supporting each other in difficult times, love is emotions flowing endlessly. [85] 2000
The two speaking in unison left Little Hetao sitting between his parents, somewhat confused.
He Qimo and Shen Funni exchanged an awkward glance and then looked away.
After all... for Shen Funni: He Qimo seemed to be making an effort, although his cold and handsome face hadn’t changed, he hesitated a moment when they returned to the He Mansion, but continued to carry her princess-style up the stairs.
When it was time to eat, facing the surprised gazes of everyone at the table, he even gave her some food.
Then responded to Zhou Huimei’s astonishment: "Son, you two..."
He Qimo glanced up briefly, then lowered his head, staying silent.
Shen Funni understood then that he was trying to mend their relationship.
For He Qimo, although he understood the reasoning, some things are easy to hear but hard to do. Facing Shen Funni, he really...
In short, the two of them were very awkward, so at night, without discussing, they bathed their son together, told him stories, and played games with him. Watching the time, He Qimo hesitated by the bedroom door for a while.
Shen Funni said: "... It’s late, and the other bedroom is also cold, stay here."
He Qimo nodded in agreement, "Alright."
Then he walked to the bed, lifted the quilt, and lay down.
But once he lay down, Little Hetao, after looking at his parents, wanted to run away.
How could that be acceptable! If he ran away, it would just leave the two of them in one bedroom, how awkward would that be?
Both of them held onto their son.
He Yunshen looked on a bit confused; Uncle Feng had taught him that when he saw his parents’ expressions were off, he should slip out of the bedroom and not disturb them, right?
Could this still not be considered off?
Four-year-old He Yunshen, no matter how intelligent and observant, could not understand everything.
So, when his parents told him to sleep, he did.
Sleeping happily between his parents, he soon entered a peaceful sleep.
But for He Qimo and Shen Funni, in less than five minutes, the atmosphere in the bedroom was even more awkward...
Even more awkward than when He Yunshen was not there.
In this silent stillness, without He Yunshen, they could have discussed their feelings, but with him there, how could they talk?
If the talk went wrong, it would surely lead to arguments, anger, and the next day He Yunshen would wake up sensitive and upset.
If the talk went right, in such a night... if emotions burst forth, predicting what might happen would be difficult, right?
In an instant, Shen Funni blushed, quickly turned her back, said, "Goodnight," and let it go at that.
He Qimo seemed unwilling to say too much, awkwardly cleared his throat, and said, "You go to sleep, I’ll read."
He turned off the bedroom’s main light, leaving only an orange reading lamp to calm himself by reading French classics.
...
But such silence only added to their restlessness.
The time moved from 10:36 to 10:45, and from 10:45 to 10:58.
So, Shen Funni, who couldn’t sleep at all, turned her body after a pause.
After a moment, He Qimo, who hadn’t flipped a single page, sensed movement beside him and turned his face.
Their eyes met.
For a split second, too many emotions swirled and intertwined in the air.
Carrying intensity, depth, tearing, and sinking.
In short, after all the years of entanglements, love and hate, sorrow and separation merged together.
They understood that trying to escape anything now was already impossible.
So, after a pause, not waiting for Feng Chengjin’s words in their minds, frowning and thinking about how to break the ice, take the initiative to start this conversation.
Thinking of Qiu Zhixuan’s words, "Try getting closer to He Qimo, maybe, once you see the vastness of that ocean, you’ll feel it’s worth waiting for him a lifetime..."
Shen Funni couldn’t help but start, "You came looking for me back then, didn’t you?"
"..." He Qimo knew that today’s visit to the Feng Mansion, Qiu Zhixuan must have said everything that should and shouldn’t be said, so he nodded slightly.
Saying nothing, yet his uncertain gaze let Shen Funni understand the struggle within him at this moment.
He... actually lacked confidence deep inside, also afraid she would laugh at him, making it hard for him to bear?
In a moment, Shen Funni couldn’t describe this complicated emotion.
In short, it once seemed to her that He Qimo avoided answers because he liked Qiu Zhixuan.
Now, understanding it, she suddenly realized that He Qimo’s silence was actually entirely because of her.
She: "..."
Unable to speak, she paused and said, "Then why did you give up?"
Looking at the book He Qimo was reading, which was exactly the same as her college course, she was sure he knew where she was.
Upon hearing this, He Qimo awkwardly curled his lips: "I saw Mr. Liang holding you, entering the room together..."
This sentence finally made Shen Funni completely understand why He Qimo acted so inexplicably on their meeting, so cold and heartbroken.
Speechless, yet somehow looking at He Qimo this way, she felt a trace of heartache mixed with sweetness.
With her eyes slightly reddened, she said, "Then you already knew it was Mr. Liang, and knew we had nothing, why didn’t you come to find me after returning to the country, and let me associate with Lu Xin?"
Why?
It seemed He Qimo also wanted to ask why...
So, pausing, after closing the book, looking at Shen Funni with a bright gaze, he speechlessly chuckled, "I think if I say it, you might get angry."
"..." Shen Funni pursed her lips, and said, "Say it, I’ve been angry enough anyway."
He Qimo calmly said, "Because I don’t like the current you."
"Ah?" In an instant, Shen Funni felt her heart shaken.
After all, she never would have guessed the situation would be like this.
He... he doesn’t like?
Shen Funni was stunned, her lips unable to close.
He Qimo glanced at their son, who was sound asleep sprawled out in the center of the bed, then reached out his hand to pull her off the bed.
This state left Shen Funni surprised, her mind in chaos. Without extending her hand, He Qimo paused for a moment, then got off the bed himself, walked around to the other side, and lifted her in a princess carry.
Walking to the next bedroom, before going in, Shen Funni still resisted a bit.
Because this used to be his and Qiu Zhixuan’s wedding room, a place he had forbidden her from entering.
But feeling her slight resistance, He Qimo resolutely carried her inside without hesitation.
Once inside, he didn’t turn on the light; he gently set her against the wall, and he—loomed over, blocking everything out.
In the air, he slowly spoke, his voice hoarse: "..."
