95 Gentler Than Usual


    Su Binn had always been a strong person, wanting to protect the people around her. Therefore, when she heard her husband coughing, she offered to carry him home.


    She even squatted with her back facing Luo Jin’an as she spoke. Little did she know, her words and actions made her husband’s heart tremble, especially when he saw her squatting.


    Luo Jin’an’s expression changed, but Su Binn did not see it, nor did Luo Jin’an move. Su Binn turned her head and looked up at her husband.


    However, it was prettyte at night, and even if there was moonlight, she could not see Luo Jin’an’s expression well. She always thought Luo Jin’an’s eyes were stunning when he stared back at her, and he exuded a soul-stirring sense of beauty.


    At that moment, Su Binn’s heart uncontrobly trembled when she looked at Luo Jin’an. Finally, Luo Jin’an reacted and took two steps forward.


    Su Binn thought Luo Jin’an would lean over and climb onto her back, so she turned her head back around. However, Luo Jin’an stretched out and grabbed Su Binn’s arm to pull her up. He used the right amount of strength and did not hurt Su Binn.


    Su Binn was still in a daze when she stood up. She knew Luo Jin’an was being gentle, but she did not understand why he lifted her.


    Luo Jin’an looked down at Su Binn and said, “I’m fine. Let’s walk home together.” His voice was gentle whenever he spoke to his wife.


    Su Binn realized his tone was not as cold as before, but she was unsure if she had only imagined it. “B-But you started coughing just now. Aren’t you tired from walking?”


    Luo Jin’an looked at Su Binn calmly and said softly, “I’m not tired. Don’t worry. We’ll be home soon. Still, I should be the one carrying you home, if anything. There is no reason why a woman should ever need to carry a man.”


    Although Luo Jin’an’s voice was gentle, his tone was firm. He took two steps forward as he spoke. Then he stopped and told Su Binn to follow him.


    Su Binn collected her thoughts and followed Luo Jin’an step by step. She wanted to say something as she kicked a stone beside her feet. After a moment of silence, she finally said, “I think it’s all the same. You’re my husband, so I should be okay to carry you.”


    Luo Jin’an stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Su Binn. “Husband?”


    Su Binn did not think much about it and answered instinctively, “W-Well, yeah.”


    “Yes,” Luo Jin’an answered in a low voice.


    Su Binn found Luo Jin’an’s response strange, but she could not guess what he thought. Since that was the case, she decided not to overthink it.


    It was a littlete before the couple got home, yet Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua waited so they could have dinner together.


    The family sat around the brick bed and ate their dinner, and after that, Su Binn removed two silver taels she had earned from her purse.


    “Mother, Father, this is the silver we earned today. Part of it is from the potatoes and chilies I sold, and the other is from the candied chestnuts.”


    Shen Qiuhua said smilingly, “You’re the most capable daughter ever. If this continues, our family’s conditions will undoubtedly improve. The money you earned today is already more than our annual crop ie. I’ll keep this money aside until you need it.”


    Initially, Shen Qiuhua did not want to keep the money aside, but Su Binn insisted on it because she knew her family had used all of their money on her for so many years.


    Su Binn wanted her mother to keep the money aside so they would have some for a rainy day and not panic if theycked any funds.
