Leng Zhiyuan was unwilling. Zhou Yao’s large palm went inside. He wrapped her small hand up directly and brought her along to run forward.

“Oy, Zhou Yao!” She was extremely frustrated. What about flying kites? It was so childish.

“Mrs. Zhou, let go of more string quickly. The kite is about to drop.” Zhou Yao rushed her.

Leng Zhiyuan raised her head up to have a look. The butterfly kite that was floating in mid air was really about to drop down. She was anxious and quickly released more string.

But not only did the kite not fly up higher, it dropped down even quicker. What a lousy thing. She stomped her feet as she pulled all the string back in anger.

This was her first time flying a kite, and she was clumsy and at a loss.

“Mrs. Zhou, you have to raise your hand higher up and run in the direction of the wind with the string in your hands. Let me teach you, like this.” Zhou Yao hugged her from behind and wrapped two large palms around her small hand as he taught her how to release the string.

Leng Zhiyuan went red in the face. It was broad daylight right now. Why did he have to be hugging her like that right now?

“Zhiyuan,” At this moment, the window of the large mansion was pushed open. Madam Zhou peeked out with her head, and she smiled brightly as she said, “It is very easy to fly a kite. Let Zhou Yao teach you properly.”

There was the shadow of Old Master Zhou in the house. He was half displeased as he chided him, “Wouldn’t it have been all good if you two had interacted like this from the start? All you knew was to start trouble from morning to night!”

“Dad!” Master Zhou smiled as he stopped Old Master Zhou.

There were so many people watching, and they were all teasing her. Leng Zhiyuan’s ears were all red. She used her elbow to strike his chest, “Let go!”

Her voice was coy and displeased, and even she froze after hearing her own voice.

Was this still her voice?

“The wind is here, run quickly!” Zhou Yao did not notice her awkwardness, and he held her small hand and brought her along as they dashed off.

Both of them ran over to the mountains. The wind that came to receive them was even more cool and refreshing. Even the air was so fresh. Leng Zhiyuan raised her head up to look at the kite in mid air. She suddenly felt that her heart was just like this kite that was flying off in the air, and she felt relaxed and free.

She curled the corners of her lips up slowly.

Zhou Yao turned his gaze over to the side and saw the smile on the corners of her lips. She rarely smiled. Maybe it was because she did not know how beautiful she was when she smiled, At that moment, the bright rays of sunshine added a layer of honey to her attractive features. Her beautiful grey eyes were bright, and she was so sweet and quiet.

He stopped in his tracks and said, “Mrs. Zhou, you look so beautiful when you smile.”

Leng Zhiyuan turned her head back, and she crashed into his dark, narrow gaze. He was gentle as he gazed at her, and his eyes were full of her bright reflection.

She averted her gaze quickly. She firmly held the string in her hands as she said, “The wind is so strong here. The kite is about to fly away!”

“How could that be?” He wrapped her small hand up as he said, “The string is in your hand. The kite will never be able to fly, just like…me…”

“Huh?”

What did he mean? She did not understand what he was saying.

Zhou Yao laughed and softly said, “I am just like this string in your hand. If you do not want me to run, I will forever be held in your hands.”

Leng Zhiyuan’s heart leaped. What was he saying?

He was saying sweet nothings again.

She did not expect that this man would be so well versed when he was saying such sweet words. How many women did he practice on to be so good?

She stuffed the string in her hands into his palms, and she turned around and left.

“Ay, Mrs. Zhou!” Zhao Yao pinned her wrist down.

Leng Zhiyuan was forced to stop, and Zhou Yao came over to face her. He used one hand to tug the string and another hand to pull a stalk of bristle grass before moving his hands expertly.

What was he doing?

Leng Zhiyuan snuck a glance at him.

Very quickly, the bristle grass in Zhou Yao’s hands changed its shape and turned into a…ring.

“Mrs, Zhou, this is for you.” Zhou Yao went to hold her right hand.

“I don’t want to. You can go and give it to another woman.” She used force to take her own hand back.

But she was unable to do so. Her small hand was held firmly in the man’s palm as he said, “Mrs. Zhou, I will say it another time; I don’t have another woman. I do not have another woman. I am still a virgin. Remember that, okay?”

Virgin…

This seemed to be the second time that he told her this. The first time, she thought of it as nonsense and did not believe it at all. This time…

“Hmph!” She pouted her attractive red lips and said, “Special forces soldiers like you, how many of you guys are clean? You all go out on missions all over the world, and you probably went to all the red light districts all over the world, right? Especially for someone like you who is perverted all the time, it would be weird if you were clean!”

“Mrs. Zhou, I do not know about others, but I am clean. I can guarantee it with the reputation of our Zhou family. I went once or twice to the red light district, and it is true that there are many beautiful women who come into my embrace, but I did not have any interest in them. I am not perverted all the time. It is just only when I face you that I become perverted at any moment,” he said seriously.

Leng Zhiyuan’s small heart was thumping erratically. He was not a person who would joke around with the reputation of the Zhou family, and he had always been such a person. He was honest and straightforward. Although he was direct and rough, he still could be considered honest.

Was he really clean then?

Also, what did he mean when he said that he was perverted at any moment when he was facing her? He was really daring to say such a thing.

“Mrs. Zhou, that night at the birthday banquet, I wanted to tell you that you are a very special person in my heart. My gaze is attracted to you all the time, and when I tease you, I feel very happy. When you are angry, I am still happy. When you smile, I am also happy. Having you by my side, I feel happy every day.”

Leng Zhiyuan’s heart was beating like a drum. Was he…confessing to her right now?

It was so sudden.

She was not prepared at all.

She’d originally planned to forget him.

As she was in a daze, Zhou Yao already placed the bristle grass ring onto the ring finger on her right hand. He lowered his gaze down to kiss her hand and had a smile on his face as he said, “This time, you are really my Mrs. Zhou now. Mrs. Zhou, I like you.”

I like you…

His voice got louder and louder in her ears, and it was ringing out many times. She suddenly felt that her heart was full and soft. She hurriedly took her small hand back before parting her legs to go. “I cannot hear what you are saying clearly.”

“You can’t hear it? Then I will say it again; Mrs. Zhou, I like you.”

Leng Zhiyuan’s face became red immediately, and it was about to drip blood at any time now, so she quickened her steps.

Zhou Yao was behind her. He was still puzzled and loudly called out to her, “Mrs. Zhou, I like you!”

This confession rang out extremely loudly in Leng Zhiyuan’s heart. In the entire mountain, the winter breeze that came blew over sent this confession to a further place, and it did not disappear for a long time.

At night, the family sat down around the dining table as they ate dinner. The atmosphere was pretty good, and there were some things that did not need to be said.

At this moment, the helper placed a small bowl of soup by Zhou Yao’s hand as she said, “Young Master, your soup is here.”

Zhou Yao had a glance and said, “Mine?”

Madam Zhou, who was seated opposite him, gave an indication to Zhou Yao with her eyes and quickly said, “You’ve just recovered from your injury. I asked the chef to cook extra nourishing soup for you, but you have to drink all of it.”

Extra nourishing soup…

Zhou Yao raised his eyebrows up and understood everything.

At this moment, Old Master Zhou broke out into loud laughter. “Haha!” He looked over at Leng Zhiyuan and said, “Zhiyuan, you have been married for almost two months now. I know that you young people want to enjoy being with one another and do not want to have children so early, but our Zhou family has always been passed down with one descendant, so you should give birth to children soon. Zhiyuan, you don’t have to worry. After you give birth, we will take care of the kid for you…”
