Cheng Su looked at the big hand holding hers, a smile persistently lingering on her lips, and her heart felt as sweet as if it were filled with honey.
"Why are you so happy?" Qi Taiguo noticed her genuine smile, squeezed her hand, and thought it was truly the right decision to come out with her.
Cheng Su nodded and said, "Come to think of it, this seems to be the first time we’ve gone to the market hand in hand to buy groceries!"
Both of them were busy, and with Qi Taiguo in the army, it was rare enough for him to be home, let alone go grocery shopping.
"It’s my schedule that doesn’t allow it, and I’ve not been able to be with you. All these years, you’ve been managing the household, wife, it’s been hard on you." Qi Taiguo took her hand to his lips and kissed it.
Cheng Su gave him a sideways glance and said, "Actually, I could have gone shopping with my niece. You just got back, you should rest at home and chat with your parents. Didn’t you see the look in your mom’s eyes? So wistful."
Qi Taiguo said, "We live apart, and our time together is so very limited. Now that we’re finally reunited, of course, I want to spend more time with you."
"Sweet talker."
"Alright, I want you to spend more time with me," Qi Taiguo said with a smile. "There are so many people at home, and during these New Year’s days, I don’t know when we’ll find peace. We have so little space to be alone together."
He’s really stealing a moment whenever he can!
Cheng Su thought about it and found it true. Compared to the noise of a big family together, she preferred to have more space for just the two of them.
Couples with kids and family barely have any time alone together—such time is too precious.
Cheng Su decided not to dwell on the topic and talked to him about day-to-day matters.
