“Why aren’t you up yet?!” Shao Yunduan playfully exclaimed.

Qiao Xuan wished he would vanish instantly.

With a tender smile, Shao Yunduan continued to nuzzle against her. “I can’t bear to be away from my wife!”

“You—” Qiao Xuan blushed, feeling utterly powerless. Her embarrassment intensified, and she weakly punched Shao Yunduan. “What do you mean you can’t bear to be away from me? I don’t believe it! You’re just trying to make me happy…”

If he truly couldn’t bear to be apart from her, why didn’t he stop when she pleaded and cried?

Therefore, no matter how gentle and refined a man appeared, he was still the same. Especially in certain circumstances, he couldn’t be trusted.

Anyone who believed him would be a fool.

Shao Yunduan chuckled and pinched her cheeks. “I’m not trying to coax you.”

Qiao Xuan snorted, closed her eyes, and buried herself under the blanket.

She didn’t feel like talking to him at the moment.

“Wife!” Shao Yunduan’s voice sounded as he was carried away. “Sleep a little longer. I’ll get up first. I’ll ask Lixia to stay in the outer room. When you’re ready, just let her know, and I’ll bring you hot water for a bath.”

“That sounds reasonable!”

Qiao Xuan felt a hint of satisfaction and nodded from beneath the quilt.

Shao Yunduan smiled and got up.

His wife was finally his. His heart finally found peace.

He had always been afraid she would leave, fearful that she would disappear if he wasn’t careful. He couldn’t bear such an outcome, no matter what.

As footsteps faded, Qiao Xuan lifted her head from the blanket and let out a sigh of relief. She relaxed on the bed, limbs sprawled. Absently, she stared at the canopy above, allowing her mind to wander freely…

Suddenly, the memory of last night flooded Qiao Xuan’s mind, causing her face to flush. She felt even more tender and vulnerable.

Biting her lip, she rolled over with the blanket, letting out a soft sigh. However, a gentle smile tugged at the corners of her lips, and her eyes brimmed with affection.

They were truly husband and wife now. From this point forward, they would stay by each other’s side, supporting and cherishing one another for the rest of their lives. There was no turning back.

And she didn’t want to turn back.

This man would eventually be hers. It had been worth the wait until now.

No matter what, in this moment, she could see and feel how good he was to her.

If she let him slip away, she would deeply regret it!

In the first section of the family, everyone sensed that something had changed.

Yet, no one could put a finger on it.

Even Yang Xiaoni, not known for her keen perception, couldn’t help but lean in to Shao Sanlang and whisper, “Brother Sanlang, don’t you think Fifth Brother and Fifth Sister-in-law have grown so much closer? Look at them, they’re inseparable and so affectionate. Oh my, it’s embarrassing to witness!”

Shao Sanlang, being even more clueless, scratched his head and replied, “Really? I hadn’t noticed. But now that you mention it, they do seem quite close. Well, it’s not surprising. They must be thrilled to finally be home. Think about it, even though Old Master is highly respected, there’s always so much to handle. They must feel more at ease here!”

Yang Xiaoni pondered for a moment and nodded in admiration. She came to a realization. “You’re right, Brother Sanlang. That makes sense. That’s it!”
