Chapter 487 The Real World: Warmth and Shopping
Back in the real world, there was one thing that made Su Jinyue quite happy: her space was finally usable!
In the previous world of the Sentinel Guide, the small world had no spiritual energy at all. The Heavenly Dao suppressed everything containing spiritual energy, so Su Jinyue's planting space could not be opened at all.
Now that she's back in the real world, she can use the space as she pleases, and Su Jinyue feels much more comfortable and convenient.
When the clock in the living room struck ten, Fu Cinian finally returned, and Su Jinyue's lovingly prepared late-night snack was ready.
Fu Cinian didn't let Assistant Lu into the house. He escorted her downstairs and then sent her back home.
The things that happened before the Lunar New Year have been mostly dealt with. The reason I'm so late today is because there was a problem with a partner on a company project. After crisis management, it's mostly resolved, so I'm back now.
Upon entering the house, smelling the warm atmosphere and smelling the aroma of food, Fu Cinian's brow, which had been furrowed due to work, finally relaxed.
He changed his shoes, took off his suit jacket, loosened his tie, and unbuttoned the top button of his shirt.
As they walked in, they met Su Jinyue, who came out to greet them.
"You're back!" Su Jinyue smiled radiantly, like a fluttering butterfly rushing into Fu Cinian's arms.
Fu Cinian stretched out his strong arms and caught her steadily.
He wrapped his arms around Su Jinyue's slender waist, a smile unconsciously appearing on his lips. He lowered his head and kissed Su Jinyue's lips affectionately, a kiss devoid of lust, lasting only a moment.
"Why aren't you asleep yet? Didn't I tell you not to wait for me?"
For Fu Cinian, he and Su Jinyue had only missed each other during the day.
But for Su Jinyue, the last time she met Fu Cinian was a lifetime ago.
Although Xie Linchuan has the same face as Fu Cinian, their personalities, ways of dealing with people, and their social environments are very different.
Su Jinyue knew that the lovers in the small world were all Fu Cinian's divided souls. She had already lived in the small world and with her divided souls for a lifetime, and now it was Fu Cinian's turn.
She reached out and hugged Fu Cinian's neck, looking at him with eyes full of dependence.
"I can't sleep because you're not back. Also, I made you a midnight snack, would you like some?"
Fu Cinian didn't know why Su Jinyue had become a little clingy, but he didn't reject it. On the contrary, he enjoyed Su Jinyue's dependence on him.
"Okay, I'll definitely try it since you've worked so hard on it. Perfect timing, I had dinner early and I'm actually a bit hungry now."
With that, Fu Cinian put his arm around Su Jinyue and walked toward the restaurant.
The late-night snack on the table was simple, just a bowl of noodles. Fu Cinian picked up his chopsticks and poked at it, then discovered a surprise at the bottom of the bowl.
Although it's just a bowl of noodles, it's loaded with ingredients: sliced beef, poached egg, and blanched vegetables.
Fu Cinian took a sip, his eyebrows raised, even the noodle soup was very delicious.
"You only made it for me? Aren't you going to eat it?" Fu Cinian's appetite was immediately whetted as soon as he tasted it.
For some reason, Su Jinyue's version of the same food always tasted better than everyone else's.
Su Jinyue felt a sense of accomplishment watching Fu Cinian eat heartily.
“I’m not hungry, so I won’t eat tonight. I also made a portion for Jinshi, and he should be asleep now after he finished eating.”
Although Fu Cinian ate his noodles quickly, his movements remained elegant and composed, a habit he had developed since childhood.
He and Su Jinyue didn't have the habit of not speaking while eating or sleeping. When he learned that she and Su Jinshi had stayed at home all day, he couldn't help but frown.
"It's almost Chinese New Year, and I haven't had time to take you guys out for fun. I've been too busy these past few days, but I've finished everything today, and I can spend time with you tomorrow."
Fu Cinian felt a little guilty. He was so busy with work that he forgot about the time and didn't pay attention to Su Jinyue and her brother.
Su Jinyue comforted Fu Cinian instead: "It's okay. I've been busy graduating early, attending classes every day to earn credits, which is quite tiring. It's good that I'm resting at home."
And then there's Jinshi; he's busy studying every day, so he never gets bored!
Fu Cinian smiled and did not continue the topic.
"The New Year is coming soon, let's go out and buy some things for the New Year tomorrow."
Regardless of whether Su Jinyue's words were true or false, Fu Cinian wanted to make it up to her in the next few days and let her have some fun.
Previously, when Su Yuanzhou came to acknowledge his relatives, and there was also the matter of her mother, Shen Nansheng, although Su Jinyue didn't say anything, Fu Cinian could still sense the awkward emotions in her heart.
Come to think of it, Su Jinyue survived alone in the orphanage for so long, and later her younger brother Su Jinshi fell ill and was abandoned, and she was the one who carried the burden.
She even sold herself out of respect for her brother.
Following this logic, Fu Cinian also bears some responsibility for the suffering that Su Jinyue endured.
But Fu Cinian didn't regret it; on the contrary, he was glad that he had chosen to keep Su Jinyue by his side.
Although their beginning wasn't very pleasant, Fu Cinian vowed to treat her well for the rest of his life.
Hearing Fu Cinian suggest going shopping tomorrow, Su Jinyue asked curiously, "But aren't we going to spend the New Year at the old house? What do we need to buy?"
Fu Cinian smiled: "We are going back to the old house, but our house also needs to be decorated."
It's Chinese New Year, and the home should also have a festive atmosphere.
Actually, Fu Cinian had never paid attention to these things before. His life plan was all about work, and he was never enthusiastic about holidays or anything like that.
However, after meeting Su Jinyue, Fu Cinian gradually began to pay attention to these rituals in daily life.
His life was no longer just about work; he hoped that Su Jinyue, who was by his side, was happy, vibrant, and carefree.
Su Jinyue didn't expect Fu Cinian to pay attention to these things. Since he had this intention, she would do as he said.
This place can also be considered her and Fu Cinian's home. Since it's a home, it should have a homely atmosphere.
Thinking this, Su Jinyue smiled broadly and replied with a hint of excitement, "Okay, let's go together tomorrow!"
After finalizing the travel plans for tomorrow, Su Jinyue excitedly began making a shopping list, noting down everything from small items like candy to large items like red lanterns for the New Year.
Su Jinyue was so excited that she didn't go over to Fu Cinian even after he finished eating his noodles and tidied up the kitchen.
Helpless, Fu Cinian forcibly dragged Su Jinyue to the bedroom, and finally had a vigorous sexual encounter before Su Jinyue's excitement completely dissipated.
The next day, after breakfast, Su Jinyue pulled Su Jinshi, who still wanted to go back to her room to study, out the door.
The three of them went directly to the nearest shopping mall. With the Chinese New Year approaching, the mall was bustling with people.
With the new year bringing new beginnings, Su Jinyue bought a lot of New Year's clothes for Fu Cinian and Su Jinshi at a designer clothing store in the shopping mall. These were colors and styles that they didn't usually wear.
Fu Cinian and Su Jinshi looked at the bright red clothes and exchanged a helpless glance, but seeing the happy Su Jinyue, they let her have her way.
