Meng Siyu was waiting in the yard, and as soon as Tang Yue and Teacher Mei entered the house, they were attracted by Meng Siyu in the yard. "Si Yu." Tang Yue’s eyes sparkled with joy, her voice tinged with excitement. Meng Siyu’s gaze was intense as he looked at Tang Yue. One month apart, she had lost some weight, but that sweet smile was just as he remembered. He strode forward, took Tang Yue’s hand, and asked, "Is this Teacher Mei?" Teacher Mei appeared to be in her forties, looking very kind. "Yes, Teacher Mei, this is my spouse." Tang Yue blushed as she introduced him: "His name is Meng Siyu." With her hand tightly held by Meng Siyu, Tang Yue felt embarrassed about trying to pull away, but Meng Siyu didn’t give her the chance. Tang Yue could only go along with him. "Hello." Teacher Mei scrutinized Meng Siyu; from his appearance to all other aspects, Meng Siyu was excellent. Positioned there, dignified and handsome, it was no wonder he married so early. She had always known that Tang Yue was beautiful, but now the beautiful Tang Yue standing beside Meng Siyu made them look like a match made in heaven, as if they were naturally husband and wife. The undisguised affection in their eyes also made Teacher Mei understand why Tang Yue couldn’t bear to leave. "Teacher Mei, can I have a moment alone with Xiao Yue to talk?" Meng Siyu courteously asked. Teacher Mei nodded with a smile, her mind pondering as she watched their leaving figures, seemingly understanding that he must have found out something. As soon as Meng Siyu and Tang Yue entered the room, Zhang Hualian came out to entertain Teacher Mei. Zhang Hualian was not very literate, but she was gentle-natured, sharing about the local customs and amiable atmosphere of Wangjiang County. In Tang Yue’s boudoir, before Tang Yue could ask what he wanted to talk about, Meng Siyu closed the door with his foot, bowed his head and kissed the lips he had been longing for. The soft lips, filled with Tang Yue’s breath, his hand clasped on her waist, releasing his deep-rooted longing. Tang Yue felt the large hands in front of her and promptly refused; after all, Teacher Mei was still outside, and it was nearly lunchtime. "Wife, I missed you." Meng Siyu’s voice was deep and husky, his gaze profound, his intense eyes seemingly wanting to strip her bare. Tang Yue blushed and said, "I missed you too, but not now." "How about tonight, you won’t refuse me?" Meng Siyu took the opportunity to speak and pecked her cheek lightly, whispering a few words in her ear. Tang Yue’s face flushed red, even her ear tips turned red as she glared at Meng Siyu. With pursed lips, Meng Siyu said plaintively, "Wife, I haven’t touched you for a month. I’ve been working overtime every day at the company; enduring cold and rain, often couldn’t even eat a warm meal, and I even got frostbite on my ear." Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒•𝙣𝙚𝙩 Before he could finish, Tang Yue was already examining his ear, the sight of the fresh frostbite pained her heart. Her hands roamed over his body anxiously asking, "Did you get injured anywhere else?" "Did you apply medicine for the frostbite?" Tang Yue’s heart ached as she looked at his ear, thinking about the winter days he endured, delivering goods in wind and rain, sometimes without a warm meal. She was almost ready to immediately pull him downstairs to eat. "I’m not hurt, a little blow from my wife will do." Meng Siyu turned his head. Tang Yue lowered her head and gently blew, coaxing him, "I’ll get some frostbite ointment for you later, after nurturing it for a while, it should heal. Is it very itchy?" "If my wife tries a different position tonight, this ear of mine will surely heal without medication," Meng Siyu took the opportunity to say. What does frostbite have to do with different positions? Does he think of anything else? "Teacher Mei is still outside, it’s not good if I leave for too long." Tang Yue changed the topic, if the conversation continues, who knows if Meng Siyu might... completely devour her? "Wife, go study in country F." Meng Siyu suddenly spoke up, he pulled Tang Yue to sit next to him on the single sofa. Usually, it’s Tang Yue who curls up on the sofa to read, the single sofa was just perfect for one; but now, with Meng Siyu’s large frame squeezing in, it felt a bit cramped. Meng Siyu pulled Tang Yue to sit on his lap, holding her in his arms, he said, "I heard that country F is a great place to study fashion design. You are very talented now, but you also need to broaden your horizons. Life is a continuous learning process." Tang Yue stared at him, thought for a moment, and realized it must have been Zhang Hualian who told him. She wrapped her arms around his neck, her whole body nestled against his chest, and she said, "But it means not seeing each other for a year, I can’t bear it." "I can’t bear it either, wife," Meng Siyu held her tightly. He loved hearing her say she couldn’t bear to be apart from him, loved how dependent and close she was to him. Meng Siyu rested his forehead against her black hair, drawing in the faint fragrance from her hair, he said, "But, you shouldn’t give up such a good opportunity because of me." "Do you really want me to go?" Tang Yue raised her head, her cheeks puffed out as she looked at him and said, "I heard there are many handsome guys in foreign countries, with blond hair and blue eyes. I have never seen them, I..." Before she could finish, Meng Siyu already interrupted her. Meng Siyu said, "Wife, what’s good about blond hair and blue eyes over our black hair and black eyes?" "Besides, with me here, wife definitely won’t fancy them," Meng Siyu said proudly. Tang Yue ’pfft’ laughed out loud, Meng Siyu’s proud and confident demeanor was truly handsome, so handsome that she couldn’t take her eyes off him. "Wife, listen to me first." Meng Siyu liked her smile, and knew she loved designing clothes. Having such a great opportunity but giving it up for him felt too wasteful, he said, "Actually, not to hide it from you, next year the company plans to open twenty more branches, so I will be very busy next year. My time in Jing City will definitely be very limited." "Then you are willing to part with me?" Tang Yue puffed her cheeks, looking upset at Meng Siyu. "Unwilling." Meng Siyu kissed her hand and explained, "You know that I want Pinganda to become a nationwide company, the fastest courier company, so these branches have to keep expanding. I originally planned to let Li Wei and the other two go, and I’d stay in Jing City, or at most, open fewer stores next year." "It’s because of me that you don’t go, isn’t it?" Tang Yue happily rewarded him with a kiss, it seemed that the two really understood each other very well. "I also can’t bear to leave my wife." Meng Siyu smiled, he didn’t want to trouble Tang Yue with this before, and now that she is going to country F, he could actually go run the expansions himself.
