Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Shen stepped into his room and went right up to the window to light a cigarette.
He could still hear the woman’s soft breathing beneath him. If he didn’t do something, the restlessness in his heart wouldn’t ease.
As he neared the end of his cigarette, his gaze regained its usual coldness.
Ready to head downstairs, he spotted Su Bing giving Su Li a ride back home.
Su Li sat in the backseat, bubbling with excitement. His legs swung back and forth while he fiddled with an empty lunchbox.
Since Gu Zits arrival, Su Li’s smile had grown wider, and Su Bing had changed too.
There was an abundance of treats at home now, and the meals were more exquisite. She even found ways to cook delicious food for the children.
Her arrival made him realize that besides earning money, being there for his children was crucial too.
Her presence had brought a newfound joy to the family. How could he not be enchanted by such a woman?
Su Shen knew Gu Zit s life wasn’t easy after marrying him. A woman like her could have chosen anyone.
But she was his wife now, and she belonged to him. He would never let her go.
Downstairs, the two brothers entered the house to find their stepmother missing again.
They didn’t expect her to always be home, but without her, the home felt less inviting.
Su Bing managed to mask his feelings, but Su Li’s expression turned sour. He sat with drooped shoulders, his face displaying disappointment.
He slowly took out his homework and couldn’t hold back anymore, “Big
Brother, did Dad and Stepmom have a fight?”
Wasn’t today the day they were getting their marriage certificate? They left early; they should have been back by now.
Moreover, when Stepmom went out before, she would leave them tasty food and little notes. But today, there was nothing.
The house felt empty, and so did his heart.
Seeing Su Shen coming downstairs alone, Su Bing sensed something was off. Did their parents really argue?
“Don’t speak if you’re not sure,” he sternly warned Su Li. “Do your homework.” Su Shen approached them slowly. Why did they seem unhappy to see him?
