Chapter 340 - Don’t Let Me Ask Around Only To Realize That My Woman Had Received Unjust Treatment (2/2)
Ruan Danchen missed him a little too much, especially when he magically appeared right in front of her after she wished that he was here to accompany her today.
She felt extremely touched when Qi Chenglin rushed back home after knowing that she received unjust treatment. Although her heart wrenched at the sight of him rushing around for her, she felt warm and happy when he valued her and treated her well.
She felt at ease because of him and she knew he would always have her in his mind no matter where he went. If she encountered a problem, no matter the severity, he would always return to her in a flash.
Tears started to well up in her eyes. She had not figured it out until now why such a good man existed in this world, and why she was able to be loved and cared for by such a good man.
Ruan Danchen squeezed into his embosom and her arms encircled him tightly. She pressed her lips on his muscular shoulder and whispered, “I love you…”
Her confession exploded in the calm lake within him. Waves came rushing toward him and carried him away, and he embraced her into his lake of exploding excitement.
…
…
Ruan Danchen was lying on the bed in a leaden, death-like slumber the next day. She knew it was time to wake up but her body did not heed her command and her eyes just would not open.
Qi Chenglin was ferocious in satisfying his craving last night. He had a few rounds last night to make up for the few days of abstinence during his outstation.
Ruan Danchen reached out to her cell phone that was resting on the bedside table, but her arms were extremely sore and fatigued. The lactic acid buildup started this morning due to prolonged muscle contractions when she clutched onto her pillow during the wild copulation last night.
It was ten in the morning when he unlocked her screen and opened her eyes amidst the semi-consciousness, then she saw a message notification. She rubbed her eyes and clicked on the message, which turned out to be from Qi Chenglin.
[I’m leaving now. I didn’t wake you up because you’re sleeping soundly. I’ll get off the plane at approximately half-past ten o’clock in the morning later.]
Ruan Danchen jolted awake after she finished reading the message. She fell into a deep sleep and did not wake up at his departure. She felt guilty and extremely terrible that there was no attempt to wake up and send him off even though he informed her he would catch the earliest flight back to work.
He even rushed around from dawn to dusk just for her.
The muscles on her abdomen and lower limbs screamed in agony due to soreness and she did not dare to move them, though she eventually did manage to lift herself after some time. She felt that it was all a mere dream when she turned her head to gaze upon the space beside her.
Qi Chenglin’s warmth and scent still lingered on her body. Ruan Danchen clutched onto the blanket tightly and inhaling his fragrance that remained.
She closed her eyes for a while before opening them again and get off the bed.
She felt happy when he came back to her last night, but now that he was gone, the initial joy had been replaced with a terrible feeling. She missed him so much right now.
Ruan Danchen endured the muscle aches and hurried to the washroom to tidy herself. Upon exiting her bedroom, she saw Qi Youxuan holding a toast he took from the refrigerator in one hand and a bottle of milk in another. He was munching on the toast while watching Kung Fu Panda on a cartoon channel. There was half a packet of toast initially, but Qi Youxuan had immersed himself in the movie with great interest, leaving only two pieces of toast without him realizing.
“Aunt Ruan, you’re awake,” Qi Youxuan was munching on the toast when he turned toward Ruan Danchen, speaking energetically.
Ruan Danchen felt guilty as she felt that she did not take good care of him. “What time did you wake up? Why didn’t you wake me up too?”
“Dad said you’re exhausted. He asked me not to wake you up and let you sleep in.” Qi Youxuan finished the last toast in the packet though only realizing it when his chubby hand reached inside and found nothing. He puckered his lips as if his craving was not yet satisfied.
He crumpled the packet and threw it into the dustbin, then he held the milk with his chubby hands and started drinking.
“You saw him?” Ruan Danchen asked in surprise.
Qi Chenglin would have left at around four in the morning based on the time his plane landed on the destination.
“Coincidentally, I saw Dad coming out of your room when I woke up to pass urine.” Qi Youxuan finished his milk too. The straw created a vacuum against the empty container, creating a gush of noise that traveled to their ears.
Qi Youxuan threw the empty milk container into the dustbin before realizing it. “Aunt Ruan, I’ve finished all the toast.”
Ruan Danchen smiled. “It’s okay, I can have something else to eat.”
She went to brush her teeth and readied herself before cooking a bowl of instant noodles for herself.
Instant noodles had a strong fragrance and the kid started to starve after inhaling the scent. He stood aside staring at the instant noodles and swallowing the saliva intensely, feeling gluttonous as his stomach started to growl.
There was nothing Ruan Danchen could do but to serve a very small portion in a bowl to him. “You can only eat this much because instant noodles aren’t nutritious, and it’s not good for your health.”
Qi Youxuan agreed and started chewing on the little instant noodles in the bowl.
Qi Youxuan ate half a packet of toast and drank two hundred milliliters of milk initially, thus he felt extremely bloated and uncomfortable after consuming that small portion of instant noodles. He laid down flat on the couch, feeling his distended abdomen, and let out a long and loud burp. “I’m so full right now.”
“Rest for a while before you start doing your homework, and once you’re done, we’ll go to the old mansion in the evening. I’ll bring you out to play tomorrow.” Ruan Danchen grinned.
“Where are we going tomorrow?” Qi Youxuan sat up immediately and his big, round eyes were alight and filled with anticipation.
“Where do you want to go? How about the amusement park?” Ruan Danchen asked.
“Really? That’s great!” Qi Youxuan fought the urge to dance and jump with delight.
Qi Chenglin was usually busy at work and always worked overtime, hence he would not have the time to go to the amusement park with him.
It was impossible for Qi Youxuan’s grandparents to bring him to the amusement park either due to their advancing ages, and there was absolutely no need to count on Qi Chengzhi at all. His uncle who was Qi Chenglin’s fourth younger brother, on the other hand, pampered him a lot, but he only had one day of free time per week to attend the family gathering. His uncle would not have the free time to bring him to the amusement park too.
There was one time when Qi Chengyue and Cheng Dongge were in a relationship, they brought Qi Youxuan to the amusement park and he was exultant at that time.
“Then finish your homework quickly.” Ruan Danchen smiled.
At least there were some benefits on Ruan Danchen’s forced leaves. Now she got more time to accompany Qi Youxuan at home.
…
…
Qi Youxuan was leaning over the coffee table to do his homework in the living room while Ruan Danchen kept glancing at the clock. When it reached half-past ten in the morning, she took her cell phone and went into the kitchen.
Qi Youxuan shifted his gaze from his homework to Ruan Danchen. He covered his mouth which broke into a smile as if understood the situation before continuing his homework.
Ruan Danchen closed the door to the kitchen and called Qi Chenglin.
Qi Chenglin just stepped out of the cabin door to the plane which opened a few seconds before when he received Ruan Danchen’s phone call. His lips curled to a gentle smile as he answered the call. “Calling me right on the time of my arrival?”
“Yes,” Ruan Danchen’s face radiated heat as she agreed softly. “Why didn’t you wake me up in the morning?”
“I felt reluctant to wake you up since you were sleeping soundly, and besides, you were too tired last night,” Qi Chenglin said as he walked. His voice would become soft and gentle, and a little bit croaky too, whenever he talked to Ruan Danchen.
“I wanted to send you off, but you were already gone when I woke up. I didn’t even get to see you in the morning.” Ruan Danchen lowered her head and her fingers were rubbing in circles against the dressing table.
“Miss me after you opened your eyes when you woke up?” Qi Chenglin was in a good mood right now as he knew Ruan Danchen cared for him.

Extra Mini-Scene:
Qi Chenglin instructed Jiang Yuan to book the earliest flight back to B City after ending a phone call with Song Yu.
Jiang Yuan: “General manager, what’s so urgent in B City?”
Qi Chenglin: “My love at home received an unjust treatment and I’m going back to comfort her. I’ll be back tomorrow morning.”
