Reborn after marriage, He Shao becomes addicted to pampering his wife
Chapter 5 Conversation
The He family's main villa has five floors and is equipped with an elevator. He Yichuan was born a soldier and is used to walking, so he seldom uses the elevator.
Here, Su Xi is visiting He Yichuan's room. The overall layout is simple and elegant.
A set of black and white display cabinets are placed at the entrance of the room. Each cabinet has customized individual grids, some large and some small, which contain many exquisite and realistic models, including guns, cannons, etc.
"Would you like to take it out and have a look?" A clear and deep voice came from behind her.
As soon as He Yichuan came up, he saw Su Xi bending over and staring at the gun in front of him.
Without waiting for her reply, he tapped the display screen on the right side of the cabinet with his slender fingertips and entered the password. The cabinet door popped open at once, and then he took out a pistol and handed it to her.
Su Xi took the gun in his hand and touched the edges of the pistol. It was an early single-action pistol that required one hand to draw the gun and the other to shoot. It is now rarely seen on the market.
When she held the gun handle, her aura changed. Her eyes exuded confidence and calmness, and her whole body revealed a unique charm, which made the man's eyes deepen.
His fingers moved flexibly, his thin white fingertips moved up and down on the trigger. It was a beautiful gun. After a long while, he put the pistol back, raised his eyebrows and commented, "Very realistic."
"This pistol has been with me for a long time. It was given to me by my father on my birthday one year ago." He Yichuan's dark eyes moved left and right following her hand movements, his eyes full of memories.
"Are these all?"
Su Xi drew an arc with her finger pointing at the display cabinet, looked at him with bright eyes and asked in confusion.
"No, some of them I found myself."
She lowered her eyes to hide her emotions and nodded. They were not from the same world, what a happy and perfect family, Su Xi couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
"Go to bed and have some rest. You didn't sleep well last night."
The man noticed that she looked a little haggard, with some darkness under her eyes. Although it was not particularly obvious, it was noticeable because of her fair and delicate skin.
She suddenly raised her eyelids, looked at the man beside her, and replied softly, "Is it convenient? I can arrange a guest room."
The man said nothing, just stared at her.
The two of them were close to each other, staring at each other, and they recalled the chaotic scene of last night in their minds. Now it seemed that there was no point in being pretentious. The embarrassing mood surrounded them. Su Xi was the first to look away and replied, "Okay."
When Su Xi woke up, the man was no longer in the room.
There was no dressing table in He Yichuan's room. She got out of bed and went into the bathroom to tidy up her appearance in the mirror.
Last night's experience made her think for half the night and she didn't get enough rest. Now, after two hours of sleep, she feels much more energetic.
Su Xi smiled at the mirror, her thin lips slightly parted, her bright and beautiful eyes moving, her skin fair, smooth and delicate.
Not only He Yichuan, she is also different now from her previous life. She is more childish, and her expression does not have the coldness and loneliness of having seen a lot.
She saw herself in the mirror, fully dressed, and left the room, going downstairs.
Downstairs, He Shaoping and Mrs. He were not there. Old Man He was sitting alone in a chair reading a book. Su Xi called out, "Grandpa He."
Mr. He had no opinion about Su Xi. In his impression, she was a smart and resilient woman. Compared with other ladies in the capital, she was more capable of becoming the future mistress of the He family. Unfortunately, her family background was not good enough.
Mr. He responded, then asked her to sit in front of him. Upon seeing this, the servant beside him immediately stepped forward and poured tea.
"Xiaoxi, long time no see."
When she was young and living abroad, she happened to save He Shaoping who was in trouble. When she first arrived in China, as a key person of concern, Su Xi often contacted them.
Later, she was seriously injured in an operation. In order to avoid external forces, she had to provide a lot of information in exchange for help. When He Shaoping learned about it, he took her as a convert out of their old friendship.
He Shaoping knew more about her situation. When she filed for divorce in her previous life, He Shaoping reminded her again and again. However, the older generation of the He family was fighting for power and profit at that time, and they were in trouble and had no time to care about her. In addition, Su Xi had offended too many forces because of some things. She knew that her end was coming, so in order not to affect them, she quickly processed the divorce.
Hearing Mr. He's gentle greetings, Su Xi was filled with emotion. After many twists and turns, he came back again. His inner sorrow turned into a thousand twists and turns, and finally condensed into one sentence: "Yes, it's been a long time."
"How have you been getting along with Xiaochuan in the past six months?"
"Mr. He is very good." As if feeling that what he said was too short and lacked sincerity, Su Xi added, "A very outstanding person."
"Now that you have obtained the marriage certificate, what are your plans for the future?"
Hearing this, Su Xi was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to respond, so he could only pick up the teacup and sip the tea.
"Originally I shouldn't have said these things to you, but now that we've met, let's talk about it. I know you and Xiaochuan have an agreement, but since you're married, you should get along well and keep going. Xiaochuan has a strong personality, so other people may not be suitable for him. You should be rational and tolerate each other. If you really can't get along, we can talk about it later."
Grandpa He's words sounded like the kind chatter of an elder. Su Xi, who had been struggling all the way on his own, was stunned for a moment, with mixed feelings in his heart. "Well, we will think about it carefully."
The glass door on the side of the front hall was pushed open from the outside to the inside, making a creaking sound, interrupting their conversation.
Mrs. He was wearing slender high heels, her figure swaying, and the hem of her cheongsam swaying from side to side, looking very beautiful.
She looked up at the living room and saw Su Xi downstairs. She called out enthusiastically, "Xiao Xi, come here. The master just delivered a batch of new clothes. Come and help me choose."
She responded, greeted Mr. He, and walked over.
The servants on the side displayed the newly arrived clothes in rows. Mrs. He held one of them, a pink off-shoulder tight dress with golden embroidery, which was sexy yet elegant. "Xiaoxi, take a look at this dress. Is it pretty?"
"It looks very nice, and the embroidery on it is very delicate." Su Xi reached out and touched the surface of the skirt, commenting.
"I had this custom made by a craftsman. Go try it on first to see if it fits. If it doesn't fit, ask them to alter it right away."
"Auntie, are you putting it on for me?" Su Xi asked in silence and some surprise.
Mrs. He responded politely, and then continued softly, "I had planned to send it to you in Yulong Bay, because Dad's 80th birthday is in a week, and there will be many people at the birthday banquet. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to find a suitable dress at the last minute, so I sent someone to order it first."
