Chapter Thirty-Seven: A Further Distance

  ♂?,,

  Tang Mianmian twisted herself tightly in the quilt, hurting so much that she gritted her teeth.

  What time is it already, and yet I'm still thinking about these things!

  When Long Ye came out, the one in the cup on the bed had already stopped moving.

  He slightly furrowed his brow and walked over, "Didn't you say to wait for your hair to dry before sleeping?"

  She stretched out her hand, intending to lift up the quilt, but found that the person under the quilt shook slightly.

  His black eyes narrowed slightly as he slowed down his movements, slowly lifting the quilt to reveal Little Lamb's extremely restless sleeping face in front of him.

  Although she tried her best to pretend that she was already asleep, due to being too tense, the long eyelashes on her eyelids were slightly trembling.

  His heart warmed up, and he hooked his lips to raise a smile.

  This little woman always manages to put him in a good mood.

  He didn't plan on moving her anyway, the time and place weren't quite right, and those words just now were just to scare her, but he didn't expect her to be so frightened.

  Even in sleep, I can think of it.

  Long Ye didn't expose her, but instead reached out and stroked her hair, then turned to grab a towel.

  Taking advantage of the gap, Tang MiMi carefully narrowed a slit and wanted to see what he was doing. Before she could see clearly, he came out of the bathroom again.

  She was so frightened that she quickly closed her eyes, afraid of being seen through by him.

  She thought she had disguised herself very well, but unfortunately, she was still seen through by the man.

  He didn't expose her, letting her continue pretending instead.

  She put a towel under her head and combed her hair to one side so that the dampness wouldn't stain it.

  She didn't move at all despite all this commotion.

  Doesn't this woman know that pretending too much will only reveal her flaws?

  The man bent his thin lips and planted a kiss on her forehead.

  The woman in his arms finally trembled slightly, and seemed to feel that she had somehow exposed herself, so she pretended to turn over, turning her back on him, with her heart racing wildly.

  She even felt that the thumping heartbeat had already been heard by him!

  Ke Long didn't say a word, helped her tuck in the quilt, adjusted the air conditioner to the warmest temperature, and then lay down on the bed.

  The depression beside her had already brought her heart to her throat.

  His nerves were stretched taut, like a bowstring about to snap. His hands involuntarily clenched the bed sheet beneath him, wishing he could turn invisible and disappear in front of this man.

  Unfortunately, things didn't go as wished.

  She closed her eyes and prayed silently in her heart, but her shoulders suddenly tensed up as the chilly back touched a warm patch.

  Long Ye Jue pulled her into his arms, the two arms wrapped around her shoulders tightening.

  Tang Mi felt suffocated, but more so, it was a warmth that seeped into the bottom of her heart.

  In an imperceptible way, the distance between the two people became a little closer.

  "He whispered scorching words in her ear, 'Sleep.'"

  “……”

  She was sleeping again!

  Wait a minute——

  Did he know all along that he was pretending to sleep?

  Is this the time when one wants to cry but can't?

  She thought she wouldn't be able to sleep, but before long, she fell fast asleep in his arms.

  ***

  After all, it's in the main house, so we have to follow the rules here.

  At 7:00 in the morning, everyone had breakfast together. Long Ye Jue woke up Tang Xian Xian who was sleeping sweetly and felt a sense of delight looking at her sleepy eyes.

  "What's wrong?" She was still dazed and hadn't reacted yet.

  "I've had breakfast."

  "I'll eat on the bus." She obviously hadn't reacted yet.

  Long Ye's voice softened, and he slightly raised his lips, saying, "Grandpa is probably already waiting, are you sure you want to eat in the car?"

  Grandpa?

  It was as if she had thought of something, Tang Xiang suddenly woke up and looked around, only to realize that she seemed to be in the old mansion.

  And most importantly, they slept together last night!

  Her face turned red, she didn't dare look around, and nodded hastily, "Okay, I'll be fine soon, just wait a minute."

  Just lifting the quilt, I thought of something and turned back to ask anxiously, "I don't have a change of clothes, can I just wear yesterday's one, will it be impolite?"

  Long Ye hesitated for a moment, then finally walked towards the dressing room. Not long after, he came out with a skirt in his hands, "Make do with this for now, I'll get DY to help prepare something later."

  "Good." Tang Xianxian was overjoyed.

  Although she was somewhat puzzled that he had taken a woman's skirt from his dressing room, time was pressing and she didn't ask much.

  The clothes fit their own size quite well, but the style is just the opposite of what they usually wear.

  Belongs to the floating type, with a very ethereal temperament.

  She looked left and right, feeling that there was nothing wrong, then she coiled her hair, wiped her small face clean, and smiled at the man, "Let's go."

  Long Ye's expression slightly changed, a strange luster flashed at the bottom of his eyes.

  It's almost impossible for anyone to catch up with him.

  Tang Mianmian spent her first night in the old mansion, also the eighth anniversary of Long Ye's departure. It was the first time she stayed overnight in the old mansion, which was a rare thing for everyone in the Long family.

  At breakfast time, the old man didn't say a word, and no one in the house dared to make a sound.

  Long Ruo Shui complained a few sentences, fearing she would be late for school.

  It wasn't until Mr. and Mrs. Longye arrived late that everyone understood what the old master meant.

  The wife of Long Fengcheng from the second house, Wang, was clearly unhappy. "Old master is being too biased, making our people wait for the sake of the young master."

  Long Feng gave Wang a cold glance, "Fewer words."

  "It's supposed to be like that."

  Wang still muttered under his breath.

  Zhu Wenyi's face fell upon hearing this.

  Long Fengteng said ahead of time, "What was agreed upon yesterday, don't make a fuss about it again."

  Zhu Wenyi felt a sense of discontent in her heart, but she could only endure it silently.

  Long Ruo Shui glanced at the crowd, then coldly stared at Tang Xiang Xiang, letting out a cold snort. "Making so many people wait, she also has the nerve. Our Long family doesn't have such a daughter-in-law."

  "What a mess!" Long Fengteng was extremely frustrated with this daughter who reveled in chaos.

  "Tang Miyan said apologetically, 'Sorry, I'm late.'"

  "It's okay, we chatted too late last night. It's normal for young people to sleep in. Sit down and take a look at what you like to eat, let me pick some out." Long Zhenfei comforted with a smile.

  Such treatment, the Long family had never experienced before, but could only envy and resent.

  Everyone is puzzled as to why Long Zhenfei is so good to this mysterious woman.

  Tang Mianmian looked at everyone with a hint of apology in her eyes, which was equivalent to an apology.

  She has never experienced having breakfast at home with so many people.

  So very uncomfortable.

  Kelong Ye also told her that as long as they lived in the Long family's old house, every member of the Long family had to attend breakfast.

  No matter how busy or tired you are, you have to show up at the dinner table.

  The sumptuousness of breakfast left Tang Siyi speechless.

  Even though I had already experienced the dinner menu of a Michelin-starred restaurant last time, I never thought that an ordinary breakfast would be so sumptuous.

  She is a foodie and eats anything delicious.

  So Long Zhenfei said that when he saw something delicious, let Long Yeye pick it out for himself, and then couldn't finish eating it.

  After breakfast, Long Zhenfei asked Long Fengcheng, "Didn't Second Brother come back? Why haven't I seen him?"

  "Long Feng Cheng immediately replied, 'He's gone to S city again, saying he's going for a cooperation talk.'"

  Long Zhenfei was barely satisfied with this answer, "Career is important, but if everyone has returned and you still don't go home, that's just not right."

  "Yes, I'll say it for him." Long Feng Cheng secretly let out a sigh of relief.

  Long Ye raised an eyebrow and asked unexpectedly, "Second Brother is back?"

  "Hmm, yesterday I was chatting with Old Master Mo, he said he saw it and thought I knew too. This stinky kid has been abroad for so many years, came back but didn't return home, no conscience!" Long Zhenfei scolded a few sentences with a cold face, then went out for a walk with the old housekeeper.

  As soon as the old man left, everyone else returned to their normal behavior.

  Zhu Wenyi immediately stood up, glared at Tang Xiangxiang, and turned to walk away calmly.

  Seeing this situation, Tang Mianmian felt a bit disheartened again. It seemed that Long Ye's mother still hadn't accepted her.

  Long Yejue patted her shoulder, "Let's go, it's time for work."

  "Working?" Long Ruo Shui seemed to have heard something strange and exclaimed, "Big brother, she's working at Jue Shi? How is that possible?!"

  Long Ruo Shui's reaction was too big, making Tang Mian Mian unable to understand, while Long Ye Jue just sank his face and ignored her questioning, "The Jue style is what I created, do I still need to get someone's approval?"

  Big brother speaks so coldly, Long Ruo Shui is obviously not satisfied, "But last time I asked to let Wan Ru Jie go in, you didn't agree, now you're letting her go in, it's too biased!"

  "She is my wife!" The resolute answer made Long Ruo Shui's face turn cold, and he could only clench his teeth in anger.

  Although Tang Mianmian didn't want them to quarrel, she was still deeply moved by Long Yeye's words.

  One sentence, she is my wife, has already let everyone know, the position of Tang Xiangxiang in his heart.

  Wang whispered to her husband, "The old man's sudden change of heart is really not what I'm used to. But he spoils his wife like this and the old master doesn't say anything, that's favoritism."

  "Alright! Let's have some breakfast, no more nonsense!" Long Feng Cheng disliked women who were too talkative.

  Wang curled his lip in disdain and couldn't help but mock, "A useless fool like you might end up getting nothing out of this!"

  Long Feng's face turned gloomy, but he also felt helpless towards his own wife.

  Wang looked at Tang Xiangxiang who had already walked far away and said in confusion, "Don't you think that this Tang Xiangxiang looks very much like someone?"

  "Shut up! That person is a taboo in our family! If you dare to say it, the old man will drive us out!" Long Fengcheng couldn't bear it anymore and scolded directly.

  The old man was scared by him and didn't dare say another word.

  At the gate, Su Wanru came to find Long Ruoshui as usual.

  But I didn't expect to run into Long Ye Jue here today.

  Just as he was about to wave goodbye, he saw his car stop beside a woman.

  That figure made her heart skip a beat.

  Taking advantage of the shade of the garden trees, Jinzhou carefully carded for a while before realizing that the person was Tang Xiangxiang.

  She thought to herself, "I must have been seeing things."

  The originally cheerful mood suddenly sank, and his eyes were a little despondent.

  And watched as the car drove right in front of him without stopping for a moment.

  She was certain that Long Ye had seen her, but he ignored her as thoroughly as ever.

  Maybe I've never even entered his world, not even as a passing traveler.

  Still indulging in sorrow and absent-mindedness.

  Long Ruo Shui drove her BMW Z6 out and saw Su Wanru waiting by the side of the road. She stopped the car and asked, "Sister Wanru, why are you waiting for me here? Why didn't you go in?"

  "Oh, I just walked here." She got on the bus and casually explained.

  Long Ruo Shui didn't suspect anything and said to her good friend, "I don't know, I didn't even eat a good breakfast this morning, let's go get something to eat first."
