Fated to My Billionaire Husband-Chapter 524 - Tomorrow is the Day of Escape_1

Chapter 524 -524 Tomorrow is the Day of Escape_1

She turned her face away, her eyes half-closed, concealing the dazzling gleam within them.

Ruan Tianling’s eyes burned as he stared at her, a shallow smile flickered on his face as he took a sip of tea. Then, his eyebrows furrowed deeply.

“Did you make this tea?” he asked coldly.

Jian Yufei knew he noticed something off with the taste. “No, Aunty Li did,” she replied.

Ah, seriously, what was Grandfather thinking? Why did he have to invite the granddaughters of his friends to come home and study with her?

They were just here to share her misery!

Luckily, there was the pleasing First Son to look at, otherwise, she would have gone crazy listening to those boring heavenly books every day.

Lin Qingluo glanced at the three dispirited girls from the general’s family with sympathy, sighed quietly, and focused on the lecture.

On the 16th day of the first month, Lin Jinyu took his four brothers, bade farewell to their elders, and returned to Mystic Canyon.

Feng Yi accompanied his mother and sister on the journey, escorting them back.

Wang Meng and Shitou stayed behind, responsible for supervising the six young boys’ martial arts training in the Duke’s residence.

Little Twelve and Little Thirteen also happily joined the martial arts training under their brothers’ lead.

The two young boys imitated their brothers’ movements, practicing the Lin Clan’s basic martial arts techniques. Their clumsy and cute appearance made the entire Martial Arts Arena burst into laughter.

Once the New Year passed, Lin Yixuan couldn’t stay in the palace any longer, so he sneaked out of the palace under various pretenses and came to Duke of Zhen’s residence to practice martial arts with Wang Meng and Shitou.

During her breaks from studying, Lin Qingluo also came to the Martial Arts Arena to stretch her body and teach the teenagers.

With her brothers away, she was the eldest sister.

The six younger brothers were very obedient.

Whenever their sister came to the Martial Arts Arena, they would joyfully gather around her, like six happy little horses, frolicking around her.

Little Eight Lin Jinhao was eleven years old, and Little Nine Lin Jinlei was ten. The two believed their martial arts skills were top-notch among the brothers, so they often entangled their sister to spar with them when their brothers were not around.

Pretending to learn from each other, they couldn’t even touch the corner of their sister’s clothes.

However, the two were not discouraged and became more motivated after every failure, displaying the Lin Clan’s characteristic fearless spirit.

Wei Shumin was very considerate and grateful for Lin Qingluo’s kindness to her. She took great care of her little mistress’s diet and daily life.

Lin Qingluo often joked with her, saying that a ten-year-old girl was worrying like a thirty-year-old aunt.

If one didn’t know better, they would think she was her sister!

Zizhu was still as carefree as ever, following Wei Shumin around every day, happily circling around her mistress.

Her simple and honest smile made everyone feel relaxed and comfortable.

With the company of the two maids, Lin Qingluo had given up on the idea of selecting new maids. She clearly told her grandmother and mother that the two girls were enough and that there was no need to add more people.

The old lady initially disagreed, feeling heartache for her granddaughter.

However, when her beloved granddaughter displayed a sweet smile and called her grandmother sweetly, her heart would melt instantly.

All her reluctance was left behind, and she held onto her precious granddaughter tightly, not wanting to let go.

Ye Xue’e knew her daughter was right and let her make her own decisions without imposing any restrictions.

Thus, the matter of choosing new maids for the Fluttering Snow Residence came to an end.

From then on, Wei Shumin and Zizhu, as first-class maids, stayed at the Fluttering Snow Residence and served by Lin Qingluo’s side.

“I won’t.” After saying that, she left the study and went downstairs to inform Aunty Li about her plans to go home tomorrow.

“What are Master’s thoughts?” Aunty Li asked tactfully, wanting to know if Ruan Tianling had agreed.

Jian Yufei nodded, “He agreed. Aunty Li, I plan on leaving early tomorrow to go have breakfast with my mother.”

“Okay, I’ll prepare early.”

She returned to her bedroom, bathed, and went to bed.

Tomorrow would be the day of her escape…

She hoped everything would go smoothly.

That night, Ruan Tianling held Jian Yufei in his arms as they slept, as always. Seemingly having made up his mind, he decided not to touch her within a month for her physical health.

The doctor actually mentioned that they could resume marital relations after half a month. However, for a woman’s health, a month’s rest was the best.

She thought Ruan Tianling would only abstain for half a month, but half a month had passed, and he still hadn’t touched her.

So she guessed that he intended to refrain for a whole month.

In the past, he would take her whenever he wanted, regardless of her feelings and health. Now he had learned to care about her health, which made her feel at least a slight move.

She wasn’t ignoring his changes. When he was kind to her, she couldn’t help being moved.

But she had been hurt too much, feared being hurt again. Regarding romantic relationships, she lacked confidence, fearing that every small step forward would lead to an irreparable loss.

All she had left was a fragile heart which had shattered to pieces. She had to protect this wounded heart without taking any risks that could cause the slightest harm.

Jian Yufei laid facing away from Ruan Tianling with her eyes wide open late into the night, unable to sleep.

The man behind her soon fell asleep, his soft, rhythmic breathing audible.

Before dawn, Jian Yufei got up and went downstairs to prepare tea for Ruan Tianling.

The kitchen was empty. She took out a packet of medication and poured all the remaining medicine into it.

She returned to the bedroom carrying the tea cup, nudged the sleeping Ruan Tianling, and said, “I’ve made your tea. Please drink it later. I’m going to start getting ready to leave.”

Ruan Tianling opened his eyes with a confused look, “You’re leaving now?”

“It’s almost dawn. I’m going to get ready and need to go shopping for a few things,” said Jian Yufei as she placed the tea cup on the bedside table and turned to go to the bathroom to wash up.

Ruan Tianling sat up, massaged the bridge of his nose, took the tea cup, and slowly drank all the tea.

He should have washed up before drinking the tea, but it wouldn’t taste good once it cooled. It was rare for Jian Yufei to make him tea, and he couldn’t waste it.
