Chapter 15:Doting (1/2)
After they decided to see each other tomorrow, Su Feng removed the tray of pastries from the oven and wrapped them together. Song Jun strode down the stairs with an annoyed Jinyi.
At the same time, Qian Meigui had walked in from her day of errands. Song Ren knew that she went to visit the old book store, but she wondered where her sister went for the rest of the day.
”Ah, perfect,” Song Jun said, ”Xiao Mei, we're all going to watch a movie.”
”All right,” responded Qian Meigui.
”Su Feng and Ren, join us.”
Su Feng agreed immediately, but Song Ren hesitated. Even though it was a long day, she never missed an opportunity to spend time with family.
The twins sat on the floor in front of the television to get a better view. Qian Meigui sat on one end of the sofa directed to the t.v while Song Ren sat next to her and Su Feng joined them on the other end. Together they watched a dystopian film as Song Jun was always a fan of science-fiction type movies about futures that could happen.
Halfway throughout the movie, Song Ren felt sleepy, as she worked all day and keeping her eyes opened required effort. Slowly, her head felt heavy, and she drifted into a slumber.
She made an excellent first impression when they met, but she always acted cold, aloof, and arrogant around him, which is why he conjured ways to torment her.
Now, she lowered her guard, which is a rare sight to witness. He shared the same values as her; their marriage would solely be a transaction. In some ways, he admired her for it. He knew that he wanted a woman that cared about the business as much as him, but now something felt different. He felt like doting on her.
When the movie was over, Song Jinyi and Song Jun went to bed immediately. Qian Meigui rose and said, ”Can you take Song Ren to bed?”
”What?” Su Feng questioned, puzzled.
”Well, I can't carry her. She's heavy.”
”I don't even know where her room is,” he responded.
