Reborn on My Wedding Night: This Time, I Won't Fail My Soldier Husband
Lu Yuzhou felt something was wrong; he loosened his grip and looked, almost laughing.
This little heartless one had actually fallen asleep while crying.
The man shook his head dotingly, went out to fetch a basin of hot water, used a warm towel to wipe the tear stains off Dong Shuyao's face, and then climbed into the quilt, holding his fragrant, soft wife as he drifted into sleep.
Early the next morning, Lu Yuhuai knocked on Dong Shuyao's door.
Dong Shuyao, who didn't even know when she had fallen asleep, rubbed her eyes and got up: "Brother, I'm coming."
Turning her head, Lu Yuzhou's gentle, smiling face was there. Sunlight shone through the curtains, the hazy light falling on his face; his handsome features were something she could never tire of looking at.
Lu Yuzhou stretched his neck, wanting to kiss her.
"No!"
Dong Shuyao covered her mouth and quickly got out of bed to get dressed: "I haven't brushed my teeth yet!"
The weather in mid-May was no longer cool; the air carried a hint of sultriness.
The wind in the capital was also dry, rolling in from outside Yongding Gate, picking up the choking smoke of coal stoves as it passed through the hutongs.
The locust tree under the wall outside the courtyard was blooming with small, pale yellow flowers, their scent faint and mixed into the air; Dong Shuyao sniffed hard several times before she could smell it.
Lu Yuhuai walked over, limping: "Sister-in-law, about the shop you mentioned..."
He had realized that if he kept doing odd jobs like this, he would never make anything of himself.
The Jiang family dared to lay a hand on his son just because they thought he was incompetent and wouldn't be afraid even if they were found out.
He wanted to do something big with his sister-in-law so that his son wouldn't be bullied in the future.
Dong Shuyao quickly spat out the mouthwash: "Brother, sister-in-law is also off today. After we eat breakfast, we'll go out to look for a shop."
