Chapter 216 Purse
Half an hour later.
Xu Jingyun, who had been so assertive, lay panting in Lin Shu's arms, her eyes closed and breathing heavily, her expression hazy, as if savoring the afterglow of what had just happened.
Lin Shu supported his waist with one hand, and gently patted him with the other, soothing him tenderly.
Once she felt somewhat better, Lin Shu gently pulled the man out of her arms a little, glanced at him sideways, and asked with her thin lips, "Are you feeling better?"
"Mmm." Xu Jingyun buried his head in Lin Shu's arms again, gently rubbing against Lin Shu's chest. His voice was hoarse. He was always different when he was aroused, unusually obedient and shy.
"Feeling better now, let's settle the score from earlier!" Lin Shu glanced at Xu Jingyun with a half-smile, then slowly lowered her head to touch her forehead with the man's.
The two cold masks touched, making a "ding" sound.
Xu Jingyun paused, somewhat stunned: "Settle accounts?"
Could it be because of the crazy things Feng Xin said earlier? Impossible, impossible, Lin Shu isn't that kind of person! But he wasn't sure, after all, since this reunion, Lin Shu had done too many things that didn't fit her character.
Sure enough, the next moment, as if to confirm his guess, Lin Shu's teasing voice came along with those oppressive eyes:
"Forced by circumstances? Just playing along? Or infatuated with someone else?"
Xu Jingyun: "......" He knew it!
While cursing Feng Xin in her heart, Xu Jingyun didn't forget to place her slender index finger on Lin Shu's chest, making suggestive gestures while saying with feigned reluctance:
"Tsk! I may not know who I like, but surely A-Shu knows? A-Shu's words are truly hurtful!"
After saying that, Xu Jingyun pretended to be embarrassed and annoyed and gently pushed Lin Shu away. She was obviously very good at acting coquettishly and jealously towards ordinary men.
Lin Shu was just teasing him, but she didn't expect to see him in such a cute way. She almost laughed for a moment, but she managed to hold back.
She raised her hand to her chest, grasped Xu Jingyun's unruly fingers, and without saying a word, continued to look at him with a mocking gaze.
Xu Jingyun pretended to pull it out twice, but couldn't. So she winked mischievously and asked, feigning confusion:
"Speaking of which, I'd like to ask you, A-Shu, who was that person who called you 'Sister A-Shu' at the Imperial Preceptor's residence that day? They seemed to have a close relationship, which made me think he was A-Shu's lover, and I almost failed to recognize A-Shu because of it!"
After saying that, Xu Jingyun turned his handsome face away and muttered in a deliberately low voice (just loud enough for Lin Shu to hear): "She's only been in Nanli for a few days and she's already hooked up with someone, what a heartless woman!"
Lin Shu seemed to have not expected the man's thoughts to jump around so quickly, and for a moment she was caught off guard.
Immediately afterward, before she could speak again, Xu Jingyun leaned closer to her and pressed on, "Why isn't A-Shu saying anything? Is there something you're worried about?"
Lin Shu: "......"
"Alright, Ah Yun, stop fooling around!" Lin Shu smiled helplessly as she looked at Xu Jingyun, who was standing right next to her.
Xu Jingyun squinted, wrinkled her nose, and leaned closer with a smile in her eyes, shaking her head to indicate her refusal: "It's too late."
Lin Shu affectionately reached out her finger and pushed his head back.
Suddenly, a brand-new red gold purse with silver thread and black pattern fell from that hand, landing right in front of Xu Jingyun.
Xu Jingyun's eyes were instantly drawn to it: "For me?"
Lin Shu nodded: "Yes, it's for you."
Upon hearing this, Xu Jingyun's eyes lit up, and she stared intently at Lin Shu. Then, she eagerly grabbed the purse and examined it from all angles.
The purse has a reddish-gold base with two silver and black dragons coiled on it, making it look noble and unrestrained, which complements Xu Jingyun perfectly!
Xu Jingyun was delighted with the more she looked at it, and when she saw the small character 'Yun' embroidered on the tail of the dragon again, she was even more enamored with it!
She couldn't help but utter a heartfelt exclamation: "It's so beautiful!"
"Do you like it?" Lin Shu turned around and ruffled his hair, asking.
Xu Jingyun nodded vigorously, then took the purse and tied it to her waist, directly showing her affection through her actions.
After tying it up, he took a few steps back, circled around in front of Lin Shu, and asked, "Shu, how is it?"
"It looks beautiful." Lin Shu's eyes were filled with tenderness.
Xu Jingyun lowered her head, her eyes full of smiles, her hand constantly stroking the purse at her waist, she couldn't get enough of looking at it.
Suddenly, as if noticing something, Xu Jingyun abruptly stopped smiling and hurriedly groped herself for something!
"What are you looking for?" Lin Shu asked, holding Xu Jingyun's slightly cool hand.
Xu Jingyun pursed her lips and continued touching herself for a while before raising her head, her tone tinged with sadness:
"The purse, the purse that A-Shu gave me before is gone. That was the first time A-Shu gave me a purse!"
After saying that, as if he had remembered that he had asked for the purse and was afraid that Lin Shu would not remember, he added in a low voice, "It's that white purse with green bamboo on it."
Lin Shu felt a warmth in her eyes as she thought of the purse she had taken from him at Wushuang Pavilion a couple of days ago, the one whose edges had been worn rough by its owner.
"It must have been taken by Feng Xin!" Xu Jingyun felt that it was Feng Xin who was behind it. Otherwise, why would she take every opportunity to talk to her? And after recognizing Lin Shu that day, she was so excited that she didn't even think about the purse that she had used to comfort herself!
After thinking it over, Xu Jingyun, with an unfriendly look in her eyes, decided to go find Feng Xin.
Unexpectedly, Lin Shu stopped him.
"Ah Yun, I took the purse," Lin Shu admitted helplessly.
Xu Jingyun looked puzzled.
Lin Shu explained, "That purse wasn't entirely embroidered by me, and it doesn't suit you."
“How can it not match? They’re a perfect match! Ah Shu is so annoying…!” Xu Jingyun didn’t react at first and refused to admit that they didn’t match.
It wasn't until he noticed what Lin Shu had said earlier that his dissatisfaction with Lin Shu abruptly stopped, and his eyes widened in shock, which could be felt even through his mask!
“A-Shu means…” Xu Jingyun’s eyes were filled with anticipation as she pointed to the purse at her waist and continued, “This purse is…”
Lin Shu turned her head away uncomfortably, her tone awkward: "Yes. I made it these past two days."
Upon hearing this reply, Xu Jingyun stopped dwelling on the previous matter of the purse. Instead, she looked intently at Lin Shu, her mouth opening and closing but unable to utter a sound. Finally, she uttered a sincere compliment:
"Ah Shu is amazing! This is the most beautiful purse I've ever seen. I want more in the future!"
Lin Shu nodded and did not refuse. She had embroidered many purses and was quite skilled, so she did not find it troublesome.
Because she was in a good mood, Xu Jingyun appeared much gentler and more considerate. She held Lin Shu's hand with one hand and kept fiddling with her purse with the other as she walked out, looking somewhat like she was showing off.
As they walked, Xu Jingyun glanced at Lin Shu, whose eyes were full of doting affection, and asked, feigning a mischievous quip:
"By the way, I wonder if this purse is just for me, or do all of A-Shu's other husbands have it?"
Lin Shu paused, her mind racing: that familiar tone! She was momentarily at a loss for words.
"Oh! Looks like you have everything." Xu Jingyun looked at Lin Shu's furrowed brows and tightly pursed lips, and suddenly burst out laughing:
"Look at these fine stitches, Ah Shu must have practiced quite a bit! Oh well! What can I do, I just like you!"
Lin Shu was perfectly aware that the other party was teasing her, so she pretended to be serious and asked in a cold voice, "A-Yun is teasing me?"
Xu Jingyun wasn't afraid of Lin Shu's angry face at this moment. She took the opportunity to pinch Lin Shu and hurriedly ran forward, calling out back as she ran:
"That's right! If A-Shu is still angry, she can come after me. Once she catches me, A-Shu can do whatever she wants with me!"
"Then Ah Yun, don't beg for mercy later..."
"Hahaha……"
For a moment, the back garden was filled with the sounds of laughter and playful chasing...
