The Crazed Little Darling: Pampered by the Possesive Commander!-Chapter 350: Seeds of Doubt

Lu Shinian’s straightforwardness made Su Ruan’s ears flush red.

She nodded slightly and replied softly, "I missed you."

Lu Shinian was about to ask how much she missed him, but then heard his little wife ask, "I was wondering when you’ll come back to help me with this."

Su Ruan pointed to the Light Brain in her hand, "I discovered Meteorite Iron today, which is one of the materials needed to repair the Light Brain."

"Help me out, let’s see if we can fix this Light Brain."

Lu Shinian: ...

The number of times he felt helpless recently was increasing.

"Let me take a look."

He took the Light Brain from Su Ruan and picked up some tools Su Ruan had gathered from nearby, and began repairing the Light Brain.

His expression was serious, and the bangs of his hair half-covered his eyes, adding a touch of softness to his otherwise stern facial lines.

From Su Ruan’s angle, she could only see his profile.

The sternness melded with a gentle hint, as if all his tenderness was displayed right in front of her.

Su Ruan couldn’t resist reaching out, gently touching his right eyebrow with her fingertip.

Lu Shinian looked up, "What’s up?"

Su Ruan chuckled and shook her head, "Nothing, just happy to have you by my side."

The fear of losing him seemed like something from a long, long time ago.

Past experiences felt like a dream from yesterday.

She leaned in closer to him, her lips gently landing on Lu Shinian’s brow.

Lu Shinian’s throat moved slightly, instinctively pulling her tightly into his embrace.

He took the initiative and kissed her lips directly.

The kiss entwined their warm breaths.

Humid and sultry, it flourished in this dim little room.

With a "bang," the door was opened from the outside.

Ye Ziwen and Ye Zirou stood outside, their expressions not looking very good.

Lu Shinian, without showing any emotion, shielded Su Ruan in his arms and coldly looked at Ye Ziwen.

"What’s up?"

Even though they were their lifesavers, he wasn’t someone who would return a favor easily.

Besides, these two did not save them out of pure goodwill but had ulterior motives.

Their goal for rescuing them was the "commonality rate," revered as the "Divine Mandate" by the Imperial people.

Ye Ziwen took a deep breath and said softly, "Mr. Lu, although you and she are married now, but..."

She was ultimately supposed to be his wife.

Ye Ziwen couldn’t quite articulate his feelings at the moment, a little unhappy as if there was a dull pressure in his chest, and an inexplicable sense of reluctance?

But as for what he was reluctant about, Ye Ziwen didn’t know.

He only felt that, clearly, he and Su Ruan had a rare eighty percent commonality rate, but Su Ruan seemed unwilling to be with him.

She seemed to prefer being with Mr. Lu.

But why?

His sister had already told him that her commonality rate with Mr. Lu wasn’t high, so why did she still want to be with him?

Ye Ziwen rarely felt a sense of confusion, that confusion seemed to be a doubt about the existing Imperial system, or perhaps about the notions he’d accepted about pregnancy and childbearing over the decades.

All sorts of emotions surrounded Ye Ziwen, making his expression increasingly unpleasant.

Next to him, Ye Zirou looked at Su Ruan with an envious face.

Although Su Ruan and Lu Shinian’s commonality rate was low, it seemed Lu Shinian didn’t care about this.

Perhaps girls are naturally more sensitive to things like "emotions," so Ye Zirou was more perceptive about the "emotional" education she hadn’t received and the ambiguous feeling between Lu Shinian and Su Ruan.

Not only perceptive, but there also seemed to be an unspeakable feeling of envy deep in her heart.

As for what she was envious of, she herself didn’t know.

Clearly, clearly, Su Ruan and Mr. Lu’s commonality rate wasn’t high.

The one with a high commonality rate with Mr. Lu should be her, so why did she feel envious?

Ye Zirou didn’t understand, so she could only look at her like that.

The atmosphere at the scene was somewhat frozen for a while.

Seeing the atmosphere stagnating, Su Ruan cleared her throat and said, "Mr. Ye, my husband and I don’t care about the commonality rate, so regarding what you said, we are not willing."

Ye Ziwen looked at Su Ruan with a face of shock.

"Not... unwilling?"

He seemed to have suffered a strong shock, even his voice changed.

"Why... why?"

He couldn’t understand.

In the education he received, in his worldview over the years, two people with a high commonality rate would certainly be together, no, they would get married.

To abandon the commonality rate and get married was something utterly inconceivable for Ye Ziwen.

He looked at Su Ruan dumbfounded, stepping back two steps, not daring to speak again.

Next to him, Ye Zirou, on the other hand, spoke softly, "That’s wonderful."

It seemed as if a seed was quietly planted in Ye Zirou’s heart.

One day, the seed would break through and grow into a towering tree.

Opposite her, Su Ruan saw their reactions and lightly chuckled, "Because we love each other."

"I love him, so I don’t care about the commonality rate."

Even though she and he had a one hundred percent commonality rate, these two seemed not to believe it.

But it seemed that didn’t matter.

Because being with him was never about the commonality rate.

Su Ruan firmly held onto Lu Shinian’s big hand, leaned to his ear, and whispered, "I love you very much."

Lu Shinian’s hardened expression softened, his eyes became gentle.

"Me too." His voice was gentle and full of affection.

A single thought popped into both Ye Ziwen and Ye Zirou’s minds simultaneously.

They seemed unable to intervene.

The atmosphere between these two seemed to isolate the entire world.

In other words, they formed a cozy and romantic little world of their own, impenetrable to anyone.

For the first time, both of them doubted the notion that "a high commonality rate means marriage is certain."

Ye Ziwen and Ye Zirou didn’t know how they walked out of the little room.

When they came to their senses, they had already left, leaving the space to Su Ruan and Lu Shinian.

In the room, Lu Shinian looked down at Su Ruan and said, "Ruan Ruan, let’s leave here soon, okay?"

They’ve been living in someone else’s house after all, which isn’t ideal.

Moreover, these two kept bringing up the commonality rate and even coveted his little wife, which was truly bothersome.

Lu Shinian’s eyes darkened slightly, not waiting for Su Ruan to respond, and continued, "Let’s go, we should leave."

He picked her up and walked out.

With his abilities, finding a temporary place to stay on this junk star was no problem at all. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

By the time Ye Zirou returned to the room with the nutrient solution, Lu Shinian and Su Ruan had already left.

On the table was a repaired Light Brain.

This Light Brain was one Su Ruan had salvaged from a garbage heap, already in a half-wasted condition, but Lu Shinian had fixed it.

Though many of its features couldn’t function due to the outdated model, basic internet access was still possible.
