Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 707 - 704: He has always been responsive to her every request.

The happy part is that there’s finally one less man at home, and she no longer has to struggle every day with how to interact with this man.

The sad part is that she actually misses him when she’s alone at home! Just the thought of his indefinite return makes her heart sink with disappointment.

"Really? Did he say when he’ll be back?" Xiao Qing continued to ask.

"No."

"I see~"

It seems that Lu Jinyang really did listen to Gu Chen’s request and didn’t tell Gu Li about Gu Chen’s illness. However, she could hear the disappointment in Gu Li’s voice over the phone and was torn about whether to tell her the truth or not.

"Who are you talking to?"

Lu Jinyang had entered without her noticing, and whispered in Xiao Qing’s ear, startling her so much that she almost dropped her phone.

She glared at him with annoyance. Just as she was about to say something to Gu Li, an awkward voice came from the other end of the phone: "Um, Qing, I’m going to sleep, we’ll talk tomorrow~"

"Hey, wait..."

All she got in response was the beep of the phone.

Xiao Qing wished she could glare a hole through Lu Jinyang, "Look what you did, you scared her off from talking to me."

Lu Jinyang couldn’t help but chuckle, climbed into bed, and with a large hand scooped her into his arms, "What do you want to talk about? I’ll keep you company."

"You sure you want to talk about women’s stuff with me?"

"What’s wrong with understanding my own wife?"

Xiao Qing clicked her tongue, "Lu Jinyang, I never noticed when your emotional intelligence came online."

"It was before you realized it."

She was astonished once again.

He used to be just a good-looking blockhead with nothing but book smarts, oblivious to emotional intelligence. But now, he had somehow become savvy... savvy...

A sudden knock on her head made Xiao Qing clutch it in pain, "Why did you hit me?"

"Didn’t you say you wanted to chat? You were the one who zoned out first."

"I was just thinking of a topic."

For some reason, Xiao Qing suddenly wanted to know how he’d spent those five years, so she asked: "Can you tell me about what you went through these past five years?"

He lowered his head and raised an eyebrow, "I remember telling you already."

"No!" Xiao Qing said with certainty: "No, you must have remembered it wrong." Even if he had told her before, she was willing to listen again. After all, she didn’t know if she had taken it to heart then, and she didn’t really remember it now.

Upon hearing her response, his eyes grew more intense, but he didn’t refuse her request: "Okay."

"How about this, I’ll ask you questions, and you answer them one by one, okay?"

"Okay." He was always willing to do anything for her.

After a moment’s thought, Xiao Qing said: "Lu Jinyang, during these five years, were you always unable to see? Then why didn’t you consider getting surgery?"

As she asked this question, her heart was uneasy, for how could someone as proud as him expose his vulnerable side to others?

What she didn’t expect was that Lu Jinyang would seriously respond to her question, one by one: "Yes, I’ve been blind... undergoing surgery doesn’t guarantee that I will be able to see, and even if I could, I wouldn’t be able to see you again~"

Xiao Qing’s heart trembled fiercely, he said, he wouldn’t be able to see her again...

Fearing he would notice something was off with her, she quickly composed herself and continued to the next question: "Later on, why did you decide to get surgery?"

Later on?
