Chapter 5: The Invisible Still Unseen

  Leng Yun put down the coffee cup in his hand and looked at her, with a faint smile on his face that was basically just a superficial smile.

  "What's wrong? Do you want to drink coffee too?" His cold eyes scanned the coffee in front of him, then raised his gaze to meet hers.

  Jiang Ruoxi shook her head, "Don't!"

  Leng Yun stood up and walked to her side, sitting down beside her. "You, what do you want to do?" Jiang Ruoxi saw him approaching and wanted to retreat, her body almost sliding off the single-person chair, luckily Leng Yun caught her.

  "I won't do anything to you, let alone you're my wife. Even if I wanted to do something to you, it's only natural, isn't it?" Leng Yun said with a smile, but it made Jiang Ruoxi feel a chill run down her spine.

  Jiang Ruoxi gently pushed him away, "I... I want to go upstairs."

  "Alright! Let's go!" Leng Yun raised a smile, wrapped his arm around her slender waist, and walked out of the dining hall.

  "I can walk by myself." Jiang Ruoxi looked up at him and said softly.

  Leng Yun didn't bother with her, instead turning to Guishu and saying, "Guishu, you go back too!" As soon as he finished speaking, Guishu withdrew his foot which had just taken a step forward, "Yes, young master."

  Leng Yun wrapped his arm around Jiang Ruoxi as they walked down the long corridor, finally stopping in front of the elevator doors.

  As soon as they stepped into the elevator, Leng Yun let go of her and Jiang Ruoxi took a step back, avoiding him. The air in the elevator was quietly tense between them.

  Until the elevator stopped at the top floor, Jiang Ruoxi took a glance at Leng Yan and walked out of the elevator.

  After a cold Yun followed closely behind, turned around and walked into the study, Jiang Ruoxi just wanted to speak up when she saw that Cold Yun had already closed the door of the study.

  Jiang Ruoxi could only return to her bedroom.

  Leng Yun sat in the chair of the study, the notebook on the desk had just been opened, when the mobile phone beside him rang. He picked up the phone and opened the message: "Yun, when are you coming back? I'll go pick you up."

  He slightly raised the corner of his mouth, dialed a number and said, "Missing me? I won't be able to go back for now. After I've dealt with the branch company's matters, I'll head back."

  "Oh, I see. It's late now, aren't you going to rest yet?" A soft voice came from the other end of the phone.

  A faint smile hung on his cold face, "Be good, don't be too tired either, wait for me to come back."

  After hanging up the phone, he sat in front of his desk and started dealing with things until dawn. He got up and just walked out of the study door when he ran into Jiang Ruoxi who came out of the bedroom. Her long hair was slightly disheveled, and she walked sleepily. When she saw Leng Yan, she paused for a moment, "Good morning, good morning!"

  "How did you get up so early today?" Leng Yun's face was still tired, but he said coldly.

  "I'll go get a drink of water." Jiang Ruoxi swirled the glass in her hand.

  He nodded calmly and said, "If you're bored staying here and want to go out for a walk, just let me know, I'll send someone with you."

  Jiang Ruoxi shook her head, "No need. I'm not going out." Even if she went out, he wouldn't let people follow her, and she would have no freedom at all.

  Leng Yun glanced at her and then walked into the bedroom.

  Is he going out again? Jiang Ruoxi looked at the time, it was only seven o'clock. She poured herself a glass of water, took a sip, and walked back into the bedroom, but saw Leng Yan lying on the bed asleep.

  What's wrong with him? Jiang Ruoxi furrowed her brow and walked over to the bedside.

  He suddenly opened his eyes, "Wake me up at 9 o'clock." Then he turned over and closed his eyes again.

  Jiang Ruoxi hesitated for a few seconds before responding with an "oh" and sat down on the sofa, holding her water cup in a daze. After a long while, she picked up one of the sofa cushions and hugged it to her chest, half-reclining on the sofa.

  When Leng Yun opened his eyes again, he glanced at the watch on his wrist, it was almost nine o'clock. He took another look at Jiang Ruoxi who was sleeping on the sofa and called out to her, but she fell asleep again. His cold eyes swept over Jiang Ruoxi's pale legs exposed outside, her pink silk nightgown had slid up to the top of her thighs, almost exposing everything.

  Ling Yun suddenly sat up, Jiang Ruo Xi was startled and suddenly opened her eyes. "What time is it now?" She sat up and only then realized she was still wearing her pajamas, so she pulled down the hem of her skirt with force and hugged the pillow in front of her chest tightly.

  "Don't worry! What can't be seen is still unseen." Leng Yun said, then walked into the bathroom. Before long, the sound of water could be heard.

  Jiang Ruoxi quickly walked to the closet and grabbed a thin coat to put on.

  Leng Yun changed into a suit and tie, sat on the sofa, picked up the phone on the sofa, "Uncle Gui, I'm going out, come to my room for a moment."

  Before long, Uncle Gui appeared at the door, opened it coldly and said, "Give me the car key. I'll go to the company alone today."

  "But, young master..." Old Gu was somewhat reluctant.

  "Today, you accompany Young Madam, wherever she wants to go, you take her there." Leng Yan said as he turned his head to glance at Jiang Ruoxi standing beside him.

  Gu Uncle then took out the car key from his pocket and handed it over to Leng Yun.

  Leng Yun took the car keys, turned around and walked to Jiang Ruoxi's front, hugged her into his arms, kissed her forehead, "Wife, wait for me here." After that, he walked out of the room.

  Jiang Ruoxi came back to her senses, and the cold figure had already disappeared from her line of sight.

  "Madam, is there anything you need? I'll be waiting outside," said the old man with a slight bow. After finishing speaking, he exited the room and closed the door behind him.

  Jiang Ruoxi looked around the empty room and sat back on the couch with a disappointed face, it had only been a few days and she still didn't know how long she would have to stay in the US.

  Jiang Ruoxi still hadn't gone out, spending the whole day in her room, watching boring TV and flipping through magazines. It wasn't until evening that Leng Yan appeared, "Didn't Ruoxi go out?" he asked, standing at the door, to Guishu who was still guarding the entrance.

  "Yes. The young lady only went out for lunch at noon and didn't go out all day." Gu Shu honestly replied.

  "Alright, I know. Just have dinner delivered to my room too!" After giving the instructions, Leng Yue opened the door and walked into the room.

  Jiang Ruoxi was lying on the sofa, carefully flipping through the sheet music in her hand, with a faint smile on her face. Her slender fingers lightly tapped on the edge of the sofa, looking like she was in a pretty good mood.

  "Your mood is pretty good!" Leng Yun said as he took off his suit jacket.

  Jiang Ruoxi sat up, patted her clothes, and smoothed out her long hair. "You, you're back."

  Leng Yun nodded slightly, reached out to loosen his tie, and walked into the bedroom.

  "I've already put on a smiling face to welcome you, why are you still keeping a straight face?" Jiang Ruoxi said with a pout as she sat back down on the sofa.

  Until Leng Yun came out of the bathroom, wearing a white bathrobe, and walked into the living room. "Is there something you want to say to me?" This little girl had always looked at him with dislike, but today she smiled at him instead.
