Chapter 231 - This Was What A Normal Couple Like
However, her sister had been missing for more than 20 years. What was worse, she was only one and a half years old when she got lost. So it was impossible for her to remember her family. Now it was almost impossible to find her now.
He Xiyan pulled Ye Hao out of the room. Then here was her parents’ room, uninhibited for nine years. She kept the room in its original appearance, not throwing away any piece of clothes or paper.
During the early days after her mother’s death, she always cried in this room. She was only sixteen years old then, but suffered the greatest pain in the world. She lost her parents, grandparents and all the relatives who cared about her and loved her. The rest of her relatives, like those strangers, wished to leave her behind so that she would not borrow money from them to go to school.
At that time, she even had the idea of dying with her mother. However, she survived strongly because she had promised her mother that whatever happened, she would live well.
In the evening, she leaned in Ye Hao’s arms. They sat together in bed chatting. Ye Hao flipped through a thick picture album which he had taken from the bookshelf. In the album, there were paintings painted by He Xiyan as she grew up, varying from pencil drawings, sketches, portraits, to color, ink and oil paintings, which almost recorded her whole growth process.
“You really like drawing?” Ye Hao gently stroked her long hair.
He Xiyan nodded. “Yeah, I started learning to draw at the age of five. Unfortunately, I didn’t learn well enough and I didn’t draw well enough, so I did not achieve any big thing.”
How ridiculous of her to dream about becoming a painter when she was young!
Ye Hao smiled lightly and said pitifully. “You did paint well and you were some kind of gifted. I think you haven’t met a good teacher.”
With a good instructor, she would have achieved something.
He Xiyan just smiled helplessly. After all, their family was not rich or noble. Mom and Dad had spent a lot of money letting her learn to draw. For a better teacher who would cost more, they could not afford that at all.
She was very grateful to have been able to learn for so many years.
After putting all the picture albums back to their original positions, He Xiyan turned off the light on the ceiling and tightly pulled up the curtains, then she turned on the bedside lamp.
The orange light illuminated the bed. He Xiyan was fascinated by Ye Hao’s perfect face under the light. He had dark and lush hair, a pair of magic amorous eyes under sword like eyebrows. His amber eyes looked extremely deep at night, which seemed to suck people in at any time. He was wearing a dark blue bathrobe with a loose belt around his waist, revealing a large piece of barley skin on his chest, indeed very hot.
He Xiyan sometimes thought that her husband must be the kind of partner that many women fancied. Even when she looked at him sometimes, she would feel an inexplicable impulse to get close to him.
“What are you thinking of? Ye Hao pulled her over, letting her rest on his arm. Since she was pregnant during this period, he had not slept with her in his arms for some time, for fear that he might not be able to control himself at night.
He Xiyan did not speak. She buried her face into his neck, her small hand gently placed on his abdomen, stroking the strong muscles above. In front of this man, she had become much bolder. She would take the initiative to touch him, to get close to him. Unlike before, she seemed very passive when facing such kind of men and women thing, and hardly dared to do so actively.
She thought this was what a normal couple like.
