His Rui

Chapter 649 Xi Ying Doesn't Feel Comfortable With Rui Touching Some Other Man

　　When he signed her to remove the cloth, she did it and couldn't help but inhale the aroma of the food deeply.

　　One of the bowls had wontons…hot and fresh.

　　She swallowed and immediately picked the pair of chopsticks to eat.

　　Gu Li heaved a sigh of relief when she continues eating because it meant that there was nothing wrong with them. After that, he chuckled as he saw her eating eagerly.

　　He couldn't help but pat her head as he said

　　"All of them are yours only. Eat slowly."

　　It was only after Gu Li felt a pair of eyes digging holes in his face, did he realize what he had just done. He pulled his hand back awkwardly and walked towards his seat.

　　Li Rui who was busy relishing her wontons didn't notice any of this. However, Xi Ling who was looking at his mother happily eating wontons noticed his father glaring at Gu Li.

　　He frowned in confusion and thought that his father just liked to glare too much.

　　He, in fact, liked this uncle who brought such good food for his mother that she was eating happily. He had seen his mother not eating even the delicious meat of his manor though he never understood why she didn't like it. 

　　She would just take a bite and then push it away with a frown on her forehead. Remembering this, though he was very tempted to taste whatever his mother was eating, he suppressed his urge and focused on the meal that also looked very weird to him.

　　However, when he tasted the food, Xi Ling's eyes went wide with surprise and then he just couldn't stop eating.

　　Li Rui who had almost finished the bowl of wontons removed the cloth from the basket and saw that it was filled with fruits.

　　"I thought that you still eat fruits only."

　　Gu Li explained when he saw her looking at the big basket filled with different kinds of fruits. Though he had seen her eating wontons yesterday, he was not much sure so he brought her fruits as well.

　　However, he couldn't help but feel curious as she didn't use to eat meat at all. Li Rui looked towards her son who was busy in eating and then looked at Gu Li. As if sensing his curiousness, Li Rui answered his unasked question in a low voice.

　　"A few years back, I was lost in a forest once. I couldn't find anything to eat at that time. So when I found a snake that was not poisonous, I killed it and ate it."

　　There was an unusual silence at the table.

　　Since almost everyone at the table except Xi Ling was a martial artist, they could hear what she said very clearly.

　　"I am eating meat since then."

　　Li Rui shrugged her shoulders as she continued eating the leftover wontons. Gu Li's face was emotionless while Xi Ying just looked at his wife silently. One of his hands went to hold her free hand under the table.

　　Though she didn't elaborate, he knew very well how she had lost herself inside a forest. He had never thought that she had such a story behind her starting to eat meat. 

　　Li Rui just turned to smile at him in assurance and then continued eating.

　　"It's good."

　　She raised her head when she heard Gu Li's words.

　　Gu Li continued with a blank face

　　"It is good that that happened. Meat is very good for health…especially when you are with a child. I always wanted you to eat it when you were living here because you were too weak."

　　"Yes…Master is right."

　　Everyone who now knew after a night that Li Rui was Mi Luan couldn't help but agree with Gu Li's words and Li Rui couldn't help but smile.

　　"It's good then."

　　She also whispered and Gu Li smiled as well.

　　On the other hand, Xi Ying looked deeply at Gu Li. It was only when he didn't find anything weird in his eyes, that he lowered his guard. However, he would still prefer if the man wouldn't touch his wife too much.

　　After they had finished the dinner, Li Rui went to the old master's tent again.

　　Today she just messaged his legs and hands for some time and then fed him some medicinal paste. Gu Li and Rong Ting helped lifted the old master's body and helped her as she fed him the paste. Though half of it fell down, some amount also went inside his body. 

　　Xi Ying who was standing a few steps away from the bed was looking at all this with an uncomfortable expression on his face. 

　　He tried his best not to say anything throughout the time they did all this.

　　However, after finishing when he stepped inside the tent with his wife, he couldn't help but say

　　"Is it necessary for you to do all that?"

　　Confused, Li Rui turned around to look at him.

　　Xi Ying didn't know if he was being unreasonable or not, but he elaborate on seeing her confusion.

　　"I don't feel comfortable to see you touching him…or any other man."

　　As soon as he finished, he looked away from her surprise-filled eyes as if he understood that he was being unreasonable.

　　But what could he do with the uncomfortable feeling he was having inside his chest!

　　Before this, the people Li Rui had treated in front of him were either a woman or a child. He had never thought that he would not be able to see if she touched a man even if it was just for the treatment.

　　  Xi Ying closed his eyes as he wondered if he was too messed up.

　　Would Rui think that he was being too unreasonable…too controlling? Neither did he dare to look into her eyes nor could he lie that he didn't have any problem.

　　For a moment, he thought that it would be better if he would leave the tent for now and come back later.

　　However, he had just turned around to leave when he felt a pair of arms hugging his waist to stop him from leaving.
