Chapter 1396 - 1394: Daughter’s Room
She might have been truly exhausted, as she fell asleep in less than two minutes, her breath growing steadier and more even.
The man was still awake, lying on his side, gazing down at her adorable sleeping face.
The young girl lay quietly and obediently in his arms, her small face flushed, and a fine sweat lightly covering her nose, gently fluttering with each breath.
He watched for a long time and couldn’t help but bend down to plant a kiss on her face.
He held her tighter before finally closing his eyes.
The idea that one learns everything intuitively is nothing but a lie; although he’s somewhat gifted in this aspect...
The reason for such proficiency is that he has waited too long for this day.
From the day two years ago when she first moved to his room to sleep, he had envisioned countless ways to tease her ruthlessly in his mind.
.
A.M.
Located in the very center of the Imperial City, in a location money couldn’t buy, sat a low-profile courtyard.
Strict guards stood all around, composed entirely of armed forces.
The decoration was very classical, imbued with a rich, solemn ambience—at a distance, it looked like a residential building from the Republic of China era.
Even the furniture in the living room, the calligraphy and paintings on the walls, the teacups on the coffee table—all were treasures that would fetch a fortune.
A woman of graceful and noble temperament sat on the sofa, watching the morning news.
She had maintained her looks well, with time leaving sparse marks on her face. Her aura did not resemble that of an ordinary high society wife—she naturally carried an indescribable presence.
Beside her sat a man in a suit; any ordinary person here would recognize him as the leader often seen on television.
Yet at this moment, the expression on this prominent figure’s face was somewhat ingratiating as he said, "Susu, Nianqing returned from the mountains, I’ve already sent someone to pick her up."
Having been married for years, Yun Su instantly knew there was more he wanted to say, so she turned to look at him, waiting for him to continue.
"This earthquake was quite severe, we don’t know how she’s doing. She said on the phone that she’s uninjured, but I suspect she’s been through a lot," Song Hanyi hesitated before adding, "I plan to bring her here to stay with us for a couple of days and spend some time with you. What do you think?"
Yun Su turned her gaze back to the TV without a word.
After a moment, she said, "Alright, whatever you want, as long as she doesn’t stay in my daughter’s room."
Song Hanyi instantly replied, "Rest assured, Luo Luo’s room won’t be touched, I’ll just arrange a guest room for her..." Pausing, he added, "She misses you as her godmother, please don’t make things too difficult for her when she comes."
Yun Su said nothing, just nodded lightly and continued watching the news.
Song Hanyi watched her attitude and couldn’t help but sigh softly.
He wondered whether his decision to take Luo Nianqing in as a goddaughter was right or wrong back then.
Luo Nianqing’s plane arrived at noon; she shared the flight with a few actors from the Imperial City in her film crew. Due to exhaustion, they didn’t notify their fans to greet them at the airport and instead took a special passageway.
As soon as she disembarked, she saw that the person picking her up was an official, and a delighted smile appeared at the corners of her lips.
The official smiled and said, "Miss, Mr. Song sent me to escort you; is it okay for you to rest over there tonight?"
The actors who traveled with her heard the name "Mr. Song" and immediately knew who he was. They exchanged glances filled with envy and reverence.
Luo Nianqing turned around as if she hadn’t noticed their looks and said to them, "I’ll be going home first, bye everyone."
