MY LOVING MARRIAGE - Season 22 Episode 6

When they left the sanatorium, the setting sun was just right outside. The soft golden light filled the ground, and the whole world was filled with warmth.

The weather was in October during the lunar calendar, so autumn was refreshing. In such a quiet town, it was more distinct than in the city, although the four seasons were not distinct in this area to the south, one could feel a little bit of autumn on this side.

The car drove on the quiet country road, and on both sides were empty fields. The rice in the fields had long been harvested in this season, and now all that was left was a large patch of withered straw roots. The car window was not closed, the cool breeze that poured in from outside brought with it the bleak and desolate evening breeze.

“Your mother is in much better spirits than the last time we came over.”

Lan Xiu’s voice broke the silence in the car.

“Her condition has stabilized a little. Perhaps it’s because she knows about my father’s situation. She hates my father to the bone, you know this. Moreover, she’s also a person with a strong desire for revenge. Seeing that they’re not doing well, she…”

As Leng Xinran said this, a cold smile flashed across her face. She did not need to continue the rest of her sentence.

However, Lan Xiu could understand the rest of her words.

“Do you also think that I’m very vicious? Towards Ye Xiaolian and the others?” Leng Xinran suddenly asked.

“Everything has a cause and effect. You’ve only done what you should have done. be it kindness or wickedness, we’re not born to be saints who want to cross the common people.”

Lan Xiu was very open-minded.

“It’s hard to say. Many men like to ask that when their marriage or relationships break up, asking, have you changed? Become vicious and scheming?”

When Leng Xinran said this, the corner of her mouth curled up in disdain.

Lan Xiu was stunned for a moment. After thinking for a moment, he said, “That’s true. Either they’re tired of it or they’re finding excuses. But on why they changed? In essence, a lot of times, it’s because of men.”

“So, if I tell you that I’m not a good woman, that I don’t have a good heart, that I don’t have the innocence and kindness of others, I might even be cruel and merciless, or I might even resort to unscrupulous means in the future, would you still treat me so calmly?” Leng Xinran said as her eyes quietly captured Lan Xiu’s dark eyes.

Lan Xiu glanced at her. After thinking for a moment, he replied, “Leave the unscrupulous things to me. You have to believe in me, I can protect you.”

Leng Xinran paused for a moment after he said this. She turned her gaze to look at him. A moment later, she smiled faintly. “Thank you. Although it’s good to be protected, it’s still better to be able to deal with it on our own. In the end, we’re still pretty good.”

“Aren’t women born to be weak? Shouldn’t they enjoy protection?” Lan Xiu smiled and said.

Leng Xinran shook her head, “Who would be born to enjoy protection? If one didn’t think so, one wouldn’t have so much resentment in one’s heart. I’ve always thought that God let you come alone so that you can create your own value and then enjoy it.”

“Are you good at philosophy?”

Lan Xiu smiled and asked her this question.

Leng Xinran paused for a moment, then quickly reacted. She pursed her lips and smiled. “I’m alright, I always get an excellent in every exam.”

“I can see that,” Lan Xiu replied.

When he was with her, although she was not a person who liked to chat, every time they talked, it would feel very natural and friendly. He had to admit that he liked being with her. At least, many of the things she said would make him feel like he had benefited a lot and enjoyed it.

“It’s Sunday tomorrow, we don’t have to go to work. Let’s go back and prepare some good dishes. Let’s have a few drinks too,” Leng Xinran suggested.

“You’re in a good mood today. Why are you in such a good mood?”

Lan Xiu smiled and did not refuse. Seeing the faint joy on her face, his mood inexplicably eased up.

“It’s rare for my mother to have such a happy birthday. Last year, we parted on bad terms. I can tell that she likes you very much. Today is a happy day. This is all thanks to you. In fact, I can’t even remember the last time I saw her smile.”

Leng Xinran let out a long sigh.

“She just asked me when we plan to get married.”

Lan Xiu thought for a moment and said so.

“Get married?”

Leng Xinran muttered softly and turned to look at him. “What did you say then?”

“I said that we’re very busy at the end of the year and that the wedding is something that needs to be discussed between the two of us. It’s mainly up to you.”

Lan Xiu expressed his feelings and looked at her with a deep gaze.

Leng Xinran remained silent. She did not reply and turned to look out of the car window.

Lan Xiu looked and could only smile. She did not know why she suddenly felt a little lonely.

It had been almost a year!

Between them…

“Let’s wait until after the year. If you insist, we can talk about this.”

After a long while, Leng Xin suddenly said.

Hearing this, Lan Xiu nodded. “Okay, as you wish.”

…

When they returned to the villa area, it was already late at night. The servants had also prepared dinner. After serving it to them, they also left.

Leng Xinran was in a good mood tonight. After drinking a few glasses in a row, her face blushed a little. As she poured wine for him, she said, “This is the medicinal wine that I brought back from my trip to the southwest a few years ago. After soaking it for a few years, the taste is enough. Drinking a little is good for your body, but the alcohol is a little stronger. If you are used to drinking red wine and foreign wine, I’m afraid you won’t be used to it.”

What they were drinking now were medicinal wine soaked in some medicinal herbs and animals. Leng Xinran had a cold body, so she would often drink some of this medicinal wine. Just like now, if she drank it, her whole body would feel much warmer, and now it was autumn, the weather was a little cold, it was just right to drink a little.

“Drink it slowly. Even if it’s medicinal wine, it’s not good to drink too much.”

When Lan Xiu saw her drink another cup, he stopped her somewhat worriedly.

“It’s rare for me to be in a good mood, so don’t let me down. Even if I’m drunk, this is my home. I don’t have to go to work tomorrow. Just treat it as a sleeping pill and sleep well.”

Leng Xinran felt a little tired. It was rare for her to have such an opportunity, so she wanted to relax.

Seeing this, Lan Xiu also felt a little helpless. He quickly scooped some rice for her. “Then eat something to fill your stomach.”

Leng Xinran did not refuse. She brought it over, lowered her head, and quietly ate.

…

The two also ate and chatted. In the end, Leng Xinran did not know how much she had drunk. She only felt that her consciousness was starting to blur. As she looked at Lan Xiu opposite her, she felt like she was having an illusion, and her sight was out of focus…
