"Husband..." Luo Yu Jiao looked at Yang Fei Long, who was deep in thought, and watched him nervously.
Yang Fei Long put his arm around Luo Yu Jiao, kissed her cheek gently, and sighed, "Silly woman, this is too unfair to you."
"There's no such thing as fair or unfair. As long as we're happy, why worry about all those trivial things?" Luo Yu Jiao said gently but with a rare firmness, a moist glint in her eyes. She just held onto Yang Fei Long's waist, her face pressed against his chest. She couldn't bear to let go of this embrace.
She knew he had seen through her concession.
Yes, why had Luo Yu Jiao made such a compromise?
Because when Yang Fei Long brought Luo Wen Wen back, she saw the genuine affection in Yang Fei Long's heart for Luo Wen Wen. Most people might have thought it was the affection of a brother for his sister, but she was different. She was already sensitive, and her heart skipped a beat. In an instant, she realized that Yang Fei Long's care for Luo Wen Wen was more than just familial. Perhaps he himself didn't know it, but he liked Luo Wen Wen.
And as for Luo Wen Wen, her eyes were filled with Yang Fei Long's presence.
She had talked with Luo Wen Wen for over half an hour and had indeed managed to subtly glean a lot of information. She knew Luo Wen Wen's feelings and that she also cared about her, not wanting her joining them to come at the cost of her own departure. And Luo Wen Wen herself was reluctant to see that happen.
That's why she couldn't sleep for so long afterward; she didn't know how to handle this situation.
She naturally knew what the biggest obstacle between Yang Fei Long and Luo Wen Wen was.
Should she step aside?
Neither Yang Fei Long nor Luo Wen Wen wanted that. And she herself was reluctant!
Reluctant to let go of this man who had captivated her, who cared for her so deeply, and who doted on and cherished her immensely.
Then, after much deliberation, she came up with this plan, a compromise. Of course, the relationship she described between herself and Luo Wen Wen was truthful. They did get along like sisters. Because Luo Wen Wen was an orphan and sensitive, she appeared more mature than her peers.
And Luo Yu Jiao herself, due to her family's circumstances and being "sold off" by her father, was slightly less mature than her peers. With this contrast, they were indeed like sisters. As Luo Wen Wen grew up, and Luo Yu Jiao was often bullied, her temper softened, and she even needed Luo Wen Wen's care later on.
Therefore, despite feeling a little wronged by this concession, Luo Yu Jiao felt the heavy stone in her heart suddenly lift once she had thought through the compromise.
Because this concession was good for everyone.
Yang Fei Long understood Luo Yu Jiao's character very well. So, although he was shocked at first, he quickly understood her concession and felt immense heartbreak.
"Wife," Yang Fei Long kissed her cheek.
"Husband," Luo Yu Jiao nestled in Yang Fei Long's arms and asked with a happy smile, "Promise me, okay?"
"Let's talk about it after some time! Perhaps she'll meet someone she likes in college," Yang Fei Long said after some thought.
"Alright then!" Luo Yu Jiao nodded. "However, from what I know of her, she probably won't fall for any other boy! So, I plan to start addressing her differently from tomorrow, or rather, from today."
Yang Fei Long: "......"
So soon? Do you trust your daughter that much?
Luo Yu Jiao chuckled. She didn't say anything. She not only believed in her daughter's sincerity in matters of the heart but also in her man's charm!
She could also see that they were already interested in each other, but because she was in the way, they couldn't take that step. Now that her own issues were no longer a problem, she didn't believe they wouldn't end up together.
Seeing Luo Yu Jiao's confident smile, Yang Fei Long gave a helpless wry smile. "By the way, I'm going to the jewelry company tomorrow!"
"You go ahead and be busy. Don't worry about the pharmaceutical company. Yi Mo and I are in charge now, and it's completely fine. If there are any problems, we'll find you," Luo Yu Jiao said with a light smile.
Her face was radiant with confidence. She was now a strong woman in her career as well.
"Okay," Yang Fei Long hugged her. "Then let's sleep a bit longer!"
"I'll go back. It would be too embarrassing if Wen Wen and Qing Qing saw me coming out of your room!" Luo Yu Jiao said, blushing.
"What are you shy about? You're my first wife," Yang Fei Long said, pulling Luo Yu Jiao, who was trying to get up, and not letting her go. He said, licking his lips, "Let your husband hold you."
"I really don't know what to do with you," Luo Yu Jiao looked at Yang Fei Long with a doting expression and hugged him tightly. "Fine, everyone already knows. It's nothing if they know I slept with Yang Fei Long last night."
In the end, others didn't see Luo Yu Jiao come out of the room because after Yang Fei Long fell asleep, she got up a while later to make breakfast. She was such a virtuous person.
As she was busy, Lou Yi Mo also came out of her room to help her.
Luo Yu Jiao's cooking was good, but Lou Yi Mo's was even better. Luo Yu Jiao's cooking was self-taught, and she figured it out on her own. Lou Yi Mo's cooking, on the other hand, was inherited from her father, who was a renowned chef.
Of course, both of them had their own strengths, and their combined cooking made the meals even more delicious and visually appealing.
Yang Fei Long felt proud to have these two women.
During breakfast, Yang Fei Long mentioned that he had company matters to attend to and would be going to the company after eating. The most sullen was his sister, Yang Qing Qing, because she was leaving Lan Hai City tomorrow. With only one day left, she couldn't spend it with her brother, which annoyed her greatly.
However, Yang Fei Long had promised her that he would find her after he finished his company work, which made Yang Qing Qing happy. She then asked how long he would be busy at the company.
Yang Fei Long thought for a moment and said, "At most two or three hours."
Yang Qing Qing pondered and said, "Then I'll wait for you somewhere near your company."
"You don't have to wait near my company. You can think about where else you'd like to go and wait for me there. I'll come find you after I'm done!" Yang Fei Long said after some thought.
"That works too!" Yang Qing Qing nodded.
Afterward, Yang Fei Long and Yang Qing Qing left together.
Lou Yi Mo also left. She was going to check on a branch store and then get busy with the third store. The reason Luo Yu Jiao didn't leave with her and Luo Wen Wen didn't go with Yang Qing Qing was that Luo Yu Jiao had said she wanted to talk to Luo Wen Wen about some things after breakfast.
No one called them, giving the two women some private time.
After eating, she accompanied Luo Yu Jiao in washing the dishes.
Neither of them spoke. Luo Wen Wen was very nervous. Hadn't they talked last night? Why was she being kept alone again? Was she going to have a confrontation with her? The thought made her incredibly anxious.
