Luo Ruying hadn't expected Yue Qingyou to directly refuse her so sternly…
"Qingyou, don't tell me you really don't have any special feelings for him…?"
"You can just be honest with me."
"I asked you to bathe together just to have a chat."
Luo Ruying thought Yue Qingyou was just being coy because of her status.
Yue Qingyou pondered for a moment before speaking,
"Although I don't know why you're asking, Madam."
"Since you've asked so directly, I'll tell you the truth."
"I do have a certain special feeling for the young master."
Here it comes!
Was she going to admit it...?
Luo Ruying's hands, submerged in the bath, clenched tightly with apprehension.
She thought Yue Qingyou was really going to confess everything to her, waiting for her to continue.
"Madam, the young master has been under my care since he was a child, and I've watched him grow up step by step."
"Although I am the young master's personal maid, in my heart, the young master is like my own child~"
"Forgive my boldness, but since you are Young Master's wife, in my heart you are both a noble lady and a daughter-in-law~"
"So I don't want you to say such things again."
Yue Qingyou gently stroked her chest, her expression proud, her words filled with tenderness and love.
This instantly stunned Luo Ruying…
"Chi… children…?"
"Daughter-in-law…?"
Luo Ruying turned around in astonishment and looked at Yue Qingyou, asking.
The relationship is quite special…
But this… this was a little different from the special relationship she'd imagined…
"Yes~!"
"Young Master is like my child."
Yue Qingyou admitted proudly.
"Then, that is to say… you, you actually don't have that kind of relationship with him…?"
Luo Ruying asked, stunned.
Could it be that she had misunderstood everything…?
"Huh? What does the Madam mean?"
Yue Qingyou asked, puzzled.
From the very beginning, Luo Ruying had always been asking some strange questions.
"It's... nothing..."
Luo Ruying quickly shook her head.
At this moment, she was so embarrassed that she silently turned back around, immersing half her head in the water, not daring to look at Yue Qingyou anymore.
It was too embarrassing...
She had misunderstood!
Yue Qingyou had originally only regarded Ning Yechen as her own child, which was why the relationship between the two of them seemed so unrestrained, without the usual constraints between master and servant.
This also explained why Yue Qingyou treated Ning Yechen with both respect and a caring touch.
She loved Ning Yechen, but it seemed like maternal love…
She always looked at Luo Hongye with a loving and joyful expression, perhaps because she regarded her child as a granddaughter…?
Rather than, as she had suspected, her child…
Yet, she had misunderstood the nature of Ning Yechen and Yue Qingyou's relationship…
Luo Ruying was so ashamed that she almost plunged her entire head into the bathtub.
She would have to apologize to her husband properly later…
Yue Qingyou watched Luo Ruying's strange behavior, and seemed to understand what special relationship she had been referring to just now.
"Madam, I can assure you."
"Young Master has never touched another woman besides you."
"Countless women have wanted to throw themselves into Young Master's arms, but he has never even glanced at them."
"In my opinion, you are incredibly fortunate."
Yue Qingyou said with a smile, helping Luo Ruying comb her beautiful hair.
Luo Ruying quietly submerged half of her face in the bathwater, already pondering how to apologize to Ning Yechen later... In the hall, Luo Ruxin was already anxiously waiting for Luo Ruying to come out.
Although this result is cruel to her sister, it is also good.
Knowing that man's true colors in advance, leaving him as soon as possible, lest it be too late to learn the truth later!
Afterward, she could continue staying by her sister's side, responsible for raising Little Yeye~
Luo Ruxin was fantasizing about her future life with Luo Ruying and their 'family of three,' when she saw Luo Ruying hurrying out of the bathroom, not even dried off, her inky hair still wet.
"Sister…"
Luo Ruxin had just begun her affectionate call when she was glared at fiercely by Luo Ruying.
If it weren't for this girl, she wouldn't have caused such a huge misunderstanding!
She shouldn't have trusted her!
"Ruxin, come to my room later!"
Luo Ruying left a word and hurriedly entered the inner courtyard.
Luo Ruxin felt a bad premonition in her heart…
It seemed like things weren't developing quite the way she'd anticipated…
Inside the bedroom
After Luo Ruying left the room, Ning Yechen sat on the edge of the bed, deep in thought.
He felt that since Luo Ruying had already sensed something, he shouldn't continue to hide it…
Perhaps she had been waiting for him to take the initiative and confess…
From the looks of it just now, Luo Ruying didn't seem very angry, but rather more heartbroken.
Perhaps if he took the initiative to confess, she might forgive him for concealing his identity…
Alright! That's decided then!
Ning Yechen secretly made up his mind.
When Luo Ruying returned, he would take the initiative to confess everything to her!
Just then, the door was slowly pushed open, and Luo Ruying, dripping wet and not yet dried off, walked in. Her face was very ashamed, and she didn't even dare to look Ning Yechen directly.
"Wife…!"
Seeing Luo Ruying return, Ning Yechen quickly got up and walked in front of her, his expression serious as he confessed:
"My wife, actually, Qingyou and I are…"
"I know everything…"
"Yes, I was wrong about you, husband… I'm sorry…"
"I didn't realize you considered Qingyou as a mother…"
"I misunderstood!"
Before Ning Yechen could even speak, Luo Ruying interrupted him, her beautiful eyes fixed on him as she took the initiative to apologize.
"Huh…? (⊙_⊙)?"
Ning Yechen was bewildered, not quite understanding what was going on.
When did he ever consider Yue Qingyou as a mother? He didn't even know…
This was a bit of a leap...
Also, did his wife actually not know who he was...?
"Huh? Isn't that right?"
Luo Ruying saw Ning Yechen's blank expression and asked in confusion.
"Uh... yes! That's right!"
Ning Yechen hesitated for a moment before seriously admitting it.
No matter what, as long as she hadn't really discovered his identity, it was fine...
He'd go ask Yue Qingyou later what had happened...
She had no idea what she said to Luo Ruying…
With the misunderstanding cleared up, Ning Yechen's worries finally subsided.
The weight in Luo Ruying's chest also vanished, and her mood lightened considerably.
The two of them gazed at each other silently.
Luo Ruying, fresh from her bath, had a rosy complexion, her hair still glistening and damp. Her cherry-red dress clung to her body, making her look as delicate and beautiful as a lotus flower emerging from the water…
"My wife…"
Ning Yechen's heart skipped a beat, and he reached out to embrace her waist, pulling her into his arms, his hands gently caressing her delicate back.
"Husband, my hair isn't dry yet…"
Luo Ruying nestled in Ning Yechen's arms, her expression demure as she spoke.
A strange joy filled her heart…
