My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 454 - 028: Jealous

After they finished eating, Ye Lingran swiftly cleared the dishes and went back to her room to change clothes and apply makeup. Yun Qi waited alone in the living room for about twenty minutes. Ye Lingran walked out from the walk-in closet wearing a red plaid V-neck slip dress, with the hem reaching her knees. The back had a bit of a hollow design, and a decorative ribbon was tied into a bow. A rose gold necklace adorned her fair collarbone, and she wore matching earrings on her ears. She also carried a black chain bag. Overall, she looked especially like the girl next door, with a touch of ethereal and graceful charm.

Yun Qi heard footsteps and turned his head. Upon seeing her attire, he was momentarily stunned, his pupils noticeably contracted slightly, as if he was a bit dazzled. However, when he looked at her fair collarbone, his eyes narrowed dangerously, and his brows furrowed with displeasure. Seeing his sudden change in expression, Ye Lingran looked down at her outfit and asked in confusion, "Wha... what is it? Why... are you looking at me like that? Did I get something on me?"

"No."

"Then... why are you looking at me like that? Do I not look good?" 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Yun Qi pressed his lips together, thinking about what to say.

Just because she looked too beautiful, he was a bit reluctant to let her wear it out, but saying this out loud felt somewhat embarrassing.

"It’s nothing." After struggling for a while, he finally replied lightly with these two words.

"Then let’s go! It’s already past nine."

"Hmm."

The two of them walked to the door, and Ye Lingran deliberately wore a pair of white flat sandals. After leaving the community gate, Ye Lingran got into his car. When they were about to reach the nursing home, Ye Lingran habitually got out of the car to buy a bunch of her Grandma Ye’s favorite daffodils from a nearby flower shop and some of her favorite fruits from the fruit store next door.

"Does Grandma really like daffodils?" Seeing the daffodils in her hand, Yun Qi took the fruits she was carrying and probed, "When I visited her in the ward before, I always saw a vase with daffodils on the windowsill. The last time I came to your house, I also noticed that both vases in the living room were filled with daffodils."

Ye Lingran smiled and nodded, gazing at the daffodils in her arms: "Yes, my grandma liked daffodils when she was young, and she later met my grandpa because of them. So... even though she remembers nothing now and her mind isn’t clear, she still only remembers daffodils. To her, daffodils are a unique memory and special existence. I remember her saying that just seeing these flowers feels like she’s reliving the moment she met grandpa and feels like he’s still around. That’s why I bring her daffodils every time I visit her, to make her feel less lonely, to let grandpa keep her company."

"It seems Grandma and Grandpa’s love story must be quite romantic as well."

"Though I haven’t heard Grandma talk about it in detail, her face always lights up with a smile whenever she mentions Grandpa. That happiness and sweetness can’t be hidden, and having a bond through flowers is inherently a romantic thing."

"Are you envious?"

"Not really, just yearning for that kind of relationship. Even if they can’t be together until old age, they live in each other’s hearts. Although I haven’t met my own grandmother, my dad used to say she was a gentle person, not fond of talking, but the relationship with grandpa wasn’t actually good. However, my dad said that before she passed away, she advised grandpa to find a woman he liked to live with. If it weren’t for the appearance of my current grandma, grandpa wouldn’t have looked for anyone else. So, sometimes, fate can really play tricks on people."

Listening to her calm tone, Yun Qi couldn’t help but smile: "Don’t worry, you already have."

"Hmm? Have what?"

Yun Qi smiled lightly without speaking, put the fruits in the back seat, and raised his brows: "Let’s visit Grandma first!" After saying this, he watched her get into the car and secretly answered her question in his heart: ’Of course, that is someone who loves you wholeheartedly, always keeping you in his heart. Isn’t that me? After all this time, I have long seen clearly where my heart lies.’

After arriving at the nursing home, Yun Qi openly held her hand as they walked in. Everyone at the nursing home recognized Yun Qi because the owner behind this nursing home was his uncle, Yun Xi’s father. Therefore, when they saw him, they all respectfully greeted him as ’President Yun.’
