RUHIP Chapter 020

“We’re going to get married soon. Once the New Year passes and my injuries have healed a little, we’ll go to the city. There will probably be a lot of things we need to prepare, so think carefully with me about what we need to buy.”

Yun Jiu reached up and scratched his hair, then very honestly shook his head. He really did not know what was needed for a marriage.

Although Lin Ye was asking Yun Jiu, he knew that Yun Jiu’s previous life had been difficult. When he had been betrothed to that sickly man, he had not been given anything either. And everyone in Yun Dali’s family was a strange one. No one would have taught Yun Jiu anything, much less prepared anything for him.

In this life, Lin Ye did not want to live so aggrievedly anymore. No matter what it was or what he needed, he wanted the best and the things that suited them the most.

“Then tell me, is there anything you want? Clothes? Jewellery? Or a house? If you think our house is too small, we can renovate it and make it bigger.” Lin Ye seriously considered it. Before, he had only thought that having a smaller house was more comfortable, but now he suddenly felt that the house seemed a little too small. Once they had children in the future, probably……

Thinking of this, Lin Ye could not help looking toward Yun Jiu’s stomach.

Yun Jiu was wearing clothes now, so it could not be seen. Lin Ye remembered that Yun Jiu’s lower abdomen was very flat, without even a little excess flesh, and the feel of touching it had been quite good.

Feeling Lin Ye’s gaze, Yun Jiu hurriedly covered his little stomach with his hand, then shyly stole a glance at Lin Ye.

Seeing Yun Jiu’s movement, Lin Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, and a trace of amusement flashed through his star-like eyes. However, he immediately put on a serious expression and said, “Mm, since you have no objections, then just follow my arrangements from now on.”

Yun Jiu unconsciously rubbed his little stomach. He had not eaten anything since yesterday, and now he was so hungry that even his legs felt weak. However, the sight of him rubbing his stomach made Lin Ye think that he was feeling uncomfortable. Lin Ye hurried over and placed his slender hand over the back of Yun Jiu’s hand.

Lin Ye was taller than Yun Jiu. Because he was worried that Yun Jiu might unconsciously lower his head, when he spoke, his voice was extremely close.

“What’s wrong? Does your stomach feel uncomfortable?”

Yun Jiu’s legs went weak as he stepped backward, and he accidentally bumped into the table behind him.

Lin Ye hurriedly used his other hand to protect Yun Jiu’s lower back, pulling him so that he would not fall backward.

They had originally only been standing relatively close to each other, but in this instant, their bodies pressed together.

When Yun Jiu pressed against Lin Ye’s embrace, he smelled a faint scent—the unique scent that belonged to Lin Ye.

That scent was like the wind in the mountains after the rain, or like plants and trees washed by rain. It was light and clean, yet it was instantly engraved in his heart.

Yun Jiu blushed slightly and said, “Thank you, thank you.”

Lin Ye lowered his eyes to look at Yun Jiu. From his angle, he happened to see Yun Jiu’s completely reddened ears. He moved his handsome lips and said in a deep voice, “Be careful. You’re so clumsy.”

Yun Jiu did not know how many times he had heard the words “clumsy.” Clearly, it was the same phrase, so why did it sound so gentle and tender when it came from Lin Ye’s mouth? He really liked Lin Ye’s voice, liked the way Lin Ye spoke, and liked Lin Ye’s embrace even more.

In a daze, Yun Jiu gently rested his head against Lin Ye’s shoulder. His hands, without being under his own control, moved from Lin Ye’s waist to behind Lin Ye, carefully wrapping around him tightly.

Yun Jiu almost held his breath as he completed this whole series of movements. After doing so, he could not help but let out a breath of relief. But then, as if he had thought of something, he hurriedly released him.

Lin Ye had been quietly watching all of Yun Jiu’s movements. When Yun Jiu let go of him, he opened his mouth and wanted to say, You can continue holding me. But before he could say it, Yun Jiu blushed and said, “I, I didn’t mean anything else. You, you mustn’t be angry.”

A doting smile lingered at the corners of Lin Ye’s lips. Yun Jiu lowered his eyelashes and did not dare to look directly at him. Lin Ye could only reach out and lift his chin, forcing Yun Jiu to raise his head and meet his gaze.

Once Yun Jiu’s eyes met Lin Ye’s, he could no longer bear to look away.

Lin Ye’s eyes seemed to possess an attraction of their own, drawing Yun Jiu’s soul toward them and making the two resonate with one another.

Lin Ye lowered his voice and spoke in his gentlest tone, “Listen to me. From now on, we are husband and husband. You are my husband, and I am your husband. You liking me, and me liking you, are both completely normal things. So, Yun Jiu, you don’t need to be so cautious. I won’t hate you because of this.”

Lin Ye continued saying in his heart: On the contrary, I also like it when you hold me like this.

Lin Ye had once worked as a psychologist. When he deliberately lowered his voice and slowed his tone, he had an especially captivating ability. It was like placing a person upon an endless blue sea, with the gentle sea breeze lightly brushing past their body, while the surface of the sea remained as quiet as a beautiful mirror.

Yun Jiu watched Lin Ye’s lips opening and closing, and his dark-brown pupils could not help but tremble slightly. He thought: How can a person’s lips even be this beautiful? It is as if an artist carefully outlined them; every stroke and every curve is so captivating.

Lin Ye keenly noticed that Yun Jiu’s attention was focused there. At first, he found it somewhat amusing, but afterward, he also felt a little embarrassed. Lin Ye turned his gaze away and was just about to put some distance between them when Yun Jiu suddenly took a step toward him.

Then Lin Ye widened his eyes in surprise. Yun Jiu’s face enlarged in his pupils and then shrank again.

Before Lin Ye could react, Yun Jiu realized what he had done and hurriedly fled in a panic.

After Yun Jiu walked out of the room, he found a corner and squatted down there. He, he, he had actually kissed Lin Ye?

What should he do? Would Lin Ye hate him? But, but Lin Ye’s lips were so soft, and even sweet.

Thinking about it, Yun Jiu could not help reaching up to touch his own lips, and his entire face instantly turned bright red.

Meanwhile, Lin Ye, who was in the room, was stunned for a moment before reaching up and touching his lips.

After realizing what that warm sensation just now had been, Lin Ye awkwardly turned his head away and cleared his throat. A suspicious flush appeared on his face.

At breakfast, Lin Amo noticed that something seemed to have happened between the two of them. The reason was that both of them were deliberately avoiding looking at each other, yet from time to time they would secretly steal a glance at the other.

It was completely the appearance of a pair of young lovers, making Lin Amo feel rather helpless. Hadn’t they already done everything they were supposed to do? Why were they still……

The meat-sauce noodles Lin Amo made were something Lin Ye had taught Lin Amo to make before.

The meat sauce was made from minced meat with both fat and lean meat. It was passed through hot water once to remove the unpleasant smell. Diced scallions were prepared and fried in an oiled pan until fragrant. Then the minced meat was added and stir-fried until cooked, followed by some crushed peanuts, diced chili peppers, and soy sauce. After the chili peppers and peanuts were added, they did not need to be stir-fried for too long. Usually, some other vegetables could also be added, but Lin Ye was a picky eater, so Lin Amo did not put any of those other things in.

The noodles were made from the finest white flour with two eggs. After the noodles were boiled in water until cooked, they were directly taken out and mixed with the meat sauce prepared earlier. Just smelling it was enough to make one’s mouth water.

Yun Jiu held his bowl and could not help sniffing. The tip of his nose moved up and down with each breath, making Lin Ye think: Like a little puppy. Little? When he thought of this word, Lin Ye frowned and looked at Yun Jiu’s build again. No, he should be a big dog.

Yun Jiu picked up the noodles with his chopsticks. There was a lot of minced meat clinging to them. When the noodles entered his mouth, Yun Jiu could not help thinking: Lin Amo’s cooking is really delicious.

Actually, it was not that Lin Amo’s cooking was especially delicious. It was simply that Yun Jiu had never eaten this much meat before. Although these meat-sauce noodles were delicious, the flavor was fragrant and spicy, and eating too much could easily become greasy. So Lin Amo had also prepared noodle soup. The noodle soup was the water left over from cooking the noodles. Lin Ye had a picky palate, and he would not be willing to drink this plain noodle soup. Therefore, Lin Amo had added some egg drops to it. He cracked the egg slightly, and while the soup was boiling, he slowly shook the egg inside the shell into the soup. Thus, in the white noodle soup, there were also little specks of yellow egg flower floating around. After getting tired of the taste, one could drink a couple of mouthfuls to wash it away.

After finishing a bowl of noodles and eating all the peanuts clinging to the bowl, Yun Jiu obediently held the bowl and planned to go wash it.

Before he could walk out, Lin Amo called him. “Yun Jiu, help Lin Ye get another bowl. Whatever is left after that is yours. I, your Amo, have a small appetite, and in the morning I especially don’t like eating such greasy things.”

Yun Jiu turned back and walked to Lin Ye’s side. After picking up Lin Ye’s bowl, he wanted to say that he was already full. But then he heard Lin Ye say, “Don’t worry, I can still afford to support you.”

Lin Amo also nodded and said, “Go on. You also need to take good care of your body. Otherwise, who will serve my Xiao Ye in the future?”

Yun Jiu froze for a moment. At first, he did not understand what “serve” meant. Suddenly, he heard Lin Ye cough, and immediately understood what Lin Amo meant. He hurriedly turned red and ran toward the kitchen.

Yun Jiu absentmindedly served the food, his mind full of what it meant to serve Lin Ye in the future. Serve? Was it, was it to sleep together with Lin Ye, and then……. One scene after another that made his face burn with embarrassment filled Yun Jiu’s mind. His hand trembled, and he accidentally knocked over the bowl.

Yun Jiu was immediately frightened. He looked at the noodles on the ground with a face full of lingering shock. It was probably because Yun Dali’s family had left too many frightening memories behind that Yun Jiu subconsciously felt that he was finished.

Hearing the sound of the bowl breaking, Lin Ye walked into the kitchen and saw Yun Jiu with a pale face. Before Lin Ye could say anything, Lin Amo, who had followed closely behind him, said, “It’s broken, so just clean it up. What’s the big deal?”

Hearing this, Yun Jiu looked at Lin Amo with a guilty expression.

“But, so much meat…… Meat is very expensive.”

When Lin Amo heard the words “very expensive,” he could not help laughing.

“What a silly child.”

Lin Ye helped Yun Jiu clean the floor, then pulled Yun Jiu along and carefully looked over the entire kitchen with him. Lin Ye first opened a cabinet, which contained bowls, chopsticks, and plates.

“If they break, just replace them with new ones. Out with the old and in with the new. I told you before that this is not the home you had before, but from now on, it is also your home. In your home, you will be the one to decide what to do with these things from now on.”

As Lin Ye spoke, he held Yun Jiu’s hand, picked up a plate, and threw it onto the floor.

Yun Jiu was startled by Lin Ye’s action.

“Even if you break all of these, I won’t be angry. Because you are also the master of this home.”
