Chapter 488 Only You Can Affect Me

Li Rong left after what Xi Ying said to her with a not-so-good face.

However, Xi Ying\'s face still didn\'t look any better. Until dinner time, Li Rui noticed that he didn\'t speak a single word to her.

After dinner, Xi Ling slept in their room today. Li Rui waited until her son was asleep and finally looked at her husband only to find that he was already staring at her.

"What happened?"

She asked him in a low voice but Xi Ying just shook his head as he turned his head away ready to sleep.

However, before he could do so, Li Rui held his hand and stopped him from lying down on the bed.

Xi Ying turned to look at her in confusion and Li Rui said to him calmly.

"I want to go out for a walk."

Xi Ying frowned, obviously not liking the idea of walking in such cold weather.

"It is not good for your health."

He said seriously and for the first time, he perhaps saw Li Rui pouting a little and then saying

"If you don\'t want to accompany me, then I will go alone."

Xi Ying sighed in defeat when he saw Li Rui ready to go down from the bed alone.

He also got down from the bed and held Li Rui\'s hand from behind when she was at the door of the room.

"Stay here."

He said strictly and then went to the couch where his thick robe was placed.

He came with the robe in his hands and draped Li Rui\'s small body with it.

Li Rui touched the robe and looked at her husband as if she was asking him what he was going to wear if she wore his robe.

However, Xi Ying shook his head and whispered

"I am alright."

Li Rui\'s small frame was completely hidden because of Xi Ying\'s large robe but she only looked very cute to him.

He almost leaned forward to peck his wife\'s soft lips, however, the remembrance of whatever happened in the evening stopped him from doing that.

So he just held Li Rui\'s hand as he stepped out of the room with her.

The night was very cold and it made Xi Ying hold Li Rui closer to his body as he was afraid that she would get cold.

"You should have worn something."

Li Rui whispered in her husband\'s ear and Xi Ying couldn\'t help but move away a little bit. This made Li Rui smile because she noticed that Xi Ying\'s ear was a little red.

Was he so sensitive there? She didn\'t know.

However, she didn\'t speak out loud because Xi Ying also didn\'t say anything in response to her words except moving closer to her a few moments later.

For a few moments, they continued to walk silently beside each other amidst the sound made by crickets.

The silence was first broken by Li Rui and she pointed towards the chairs that were placed in the garden and said

"Let\'s sit there."

Xi Ying wanted to refuse but before he could do so, Li Rui had already started to pull him towards the chair.

He looked at her back with a surprised face. This was the first time he was seeing her behaving like this.

Perhaps that\'s why Xi Ying didn\'t try to stop Li Rui and instead followed her silently.

A few moments later, both of them were seated against each other on the chairs inside the garden.

Though Xi Ying was not speaking to Li Rui, he was worried about her and Li Rui could see it as he held her hands and rubbed them with his hands continuously.

She couldn\'t help but smile softly at his actions.

Her heart felt very warm inside her chest as she suddenly raised her head to look at the stars.

When Xi Ying raised his head and saw this scene, he also followed Li Rui\'s gaze.

"You like stars?"

He couldn\'t help but ask her unconsciously and suddenly realized that he had just spoken to her.

It seems that it was easier said than done.

He had become so habitual of Li Rui that now he couldn\'t even stay without talking to her.

"No"

Li Rui answered his question in her soft voice. She turned her head to look at his face while Xi Ying nodded his head suddenly, unsure of what he should say.

"Ohh…"

He whispered making Li Rui remember their son.

"You are angry at me?"

She asked him finally while Xi Ying looked surprised by her question suddenly. He had not expected Li Rui to notice this.

After she behaved so normally even though he didn\'t talk to her, Xi Ying had thought bitterly inside his heart that his wife perhaps didn\'t really care whether he talked to her or not.

However, now that she finally asked this question, a little bit of joy could not help but spread inside his heart.

So she had noticed.

Hiding the joy, Xi Ying turned his head away and looked at the stars silently.

Li Rui raised her eyebrows at his question and whispered to herself

"So you are really angry but why?"

Xi Ying still didn\'t turn his head to look at his wife and Li Rui frowned. She couldn\'t help but say calmly

"Ying, you need to tell me at least. I will try to explain myself or give you some reasonable reasons."

Xi Ying, however, still didn\'t turn his head.

Li Rui looked at him incredulously and sighed in defeat a moment later

"Is it because of something Elder Aunt did or said?"

This time, Xi Ying finally turned his head to look at his wife. His eyes were filled with intense love and his lips had a small sad smile as he looked at his wife and told her.

"She is not capable enough to affect me that much, Rui."

"The only person who can affect my emotions is you only."
