Stealing the moonlight into my arms

Chapter 36 Do you feel empty, lonely and cold when you sleep without me?

Fu Runing fed the cat and to save trouble, she carried the cat bed into her room.

Duoduo followed in and lay down obediently in its own little bed.

Duoduo didn't have this treatment when Xiao Jingting was at home before, but in the first two years of their marriage, Xiao Jingting was not home most of the time, and Duoduo had to sleep with Fu Runing in the second bedroom at night.

As a result, Xiao Jingting came back more frequently later, and Duoduo would yell at him when she saw him at first.

Because as soon as Xiao Jingting came back, it couldn't enter the master bedroom and had to sleep outside.

This makes people hate it, even dogs dislike it.

Of course, Xiao Jingting also doesn't like these little pets. Being able to keep her and Duoduo is already the limit of his patience.

The next day.

Fu Runing was awakened by the vibration of her cell phone.

She was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes and was very irritable when she got up.

She got up twice at night for fear that the three kittens would die accidentally, and finally managed to get a nap.

Who the hell is calling her now?

Fu Runing ignored it.

She closed her eyes for a while, and the ringing sound rang again tirelessly. She covered her head with the quilt in annoyance and was too lazy to even reach out to hang up the phone.

The ringing of the cell phone stopped and the whole room finally became quiet again.

Fu Runing slept for who knows how long, wrapped in the quilt. In a daze, she seemed to hear voices outside...

Outside the door——

"Which room is Ningning sleeping in? I just went to the master bedroom and knocked on the door, but there was no response."

"Madam...Madam said there was a mouse in the bedroom, so it should be in the second bedroom."

Fu Runing didn't know if she was dreaming, but the voices outside the door became clearer and clearer.

The old lady is here!

She suddenly sat up from the bed, all her sleepiness gone.

Duoduo would open the door of her room and go out for a walk in the morning, and then she would not close the door, so her room door was always open.

Fu Runing quickly threw off the quilt and got out of bed. She was so anxious that she couldn't find her slippers, so she simply ran out of the room barefoot.

She hurriedly opened the door and went out, and saw the old lady Song Huizhen standing in the corridor, followed by the neatly dressed Xiao Jingting.

Fu Runing was still a little confused. She looked at Xiao Jingting in confusion. The man ignored her, but glanced down at her bare feet.

Xiao Jingting said calmly: "Go put on your shoes."

She looked down at her feet. Oh, he was getting into the role so quickly.

When the old lady came, he started pretending to care about her again.

Fu Runing turned her gaze towards the old lady, "Grandma, why are you here at this hour?"

Song Huizhen smiled and said, "Jingting is right. Go put on your shoes first. Don't catch a cold. Girls are prone to colds."

Fu Runing turned and walked into the room and quickly changed her clothes.

She cursed in her heart while cleaning up. The old lady was already at the door of the room, why didn't Xiao Jingting remind her?

……

Downstairs living room.

Song Huizhen explained her purpose. She specially brought Fu Runing some homemade soup and some ingredients for the soup.

He also specifically warned her, "Don't drink the medicine your aunt gave you anymore. Who knows where she got the prescription from?"

Fu Runing responded obediently: "Thank you, grandma, I haven't drunk any more."

Song Huizhen nodded and turned her gaze to her eldest grandson.

"Jingting, your grandparents made you kneel that day and made you angry. You won't hold a grudge against us, right?"

Xiao Jingting said calmly: "No."

The old lady continued, "Rui Rui did make a mistake that day, but we are both made of flesh and blood, and grandpa and grandma can't openly favor you."

"I know."

Xiao Jingting still answered in a flat tone, with an indifferent expression, and no emotion could be seen.

Seeing this, Song Huizhen had no choice but to turn around and stroke Fu Runing's hand. "Grandma brought you some clothes. I saw you looked really good in them a while ago, so I happened to know a master craftsman, so I made a few pieces according to your measurements."

As he spoke, Yue Zhong asked someone to bring in a clothes rack.

Hanging on the rack are several clothes made of Song brocade fabric and matching skirts.

"Thank you, grandma." Fu Runing smiled sweetly and her voice was also tender and cute.

Who doesn't like beautiful clothes?

Song Huizhen smiled and continued, "This one looks good with pearls, and that color looks good with jade."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Zhong brought in a few more jewelry boxes.

There are pearls and jade, all displayed in sets.

Fu Runing was stunned. The jade necklace was so green that it almost blinded her eyes.

The quality of this jade set is many times better than the one that Weng Yuqing gave to Rong Ruo last time.

Giving her clothes is a small matter; the main thing is giving her jewelry.

Now Fu Runing finally understood the old lady's intention. She came to her house with such fanfare just to appease Xiao Jingting.

In the complicated family environment of the Xiao family, infighting among descendants is the most taboo. How to handle this situation is up to the elders.

There's a saying that goes, "Discord between children is often due to the elders' lack of virtue." The old lady knew how to comfort them afterwards.

Fu Runing raised the corner of her mouth, "Thank you, grandma."

"Ningning is twenty-five years old now. Consider these as your birthday presents from grandma."

At this point, Song Huizhen turned the topic to her eldest grandson and asked, "What good things did Jingting give you?"

Fu Runing subconsciously glanced at Xiao Jingting who was sitting there.

Nothing was given.

It made her very angry.

"Jingting..." She hesitated, her brain working rapidly, and then said: "Jingting gave me three kittens!"

Song Huizhen became interested. "Oh, is it gold or jade?"

“…alive.”

Song Huizhen smiled awkwardly and said, "That's quite unique."

"That's right."

Fu Runing kept smiling and glanced at Xiao Jingting while speaking, and had to pretend to be shy and loving.

Song Huizhen seemed to have thought of something and said casually, "Oh, by the way, I just heard there's a rat in your bedroom. It's so annoying that you're sleeping in separate rooms. Yue Zhong, go find a reliable cleaning company to take a look."

Fu Runing looked embarrassed. She had to cover up the lie she had told herself.

"No need, grandma. Didn't Jing Ting give me three cats? The mice should run away after the cats meow for two days."

Song Huizhen nodded kindly, "That's good. If you have any more, tell grandma and she'll help you deal with them. Xiyuan always has rats and cockroaches, so those are easy to deal with."

"Hey." Fu Runing responded obediently.

……

After seeing the old lady off, Fu Runing stared at the pile of jewelry in the room in a daze.

In the past, she would put any good things she got from the old lady in her own little treasury, but today she just left them here and didn't know what to do with them.

Sometimes she didn't know whether she should understand the hidden meaning.

Where is the mouse here?

This is pointing to her and Xiao Jingting.

The reason why she was given gifts was because she was the granddaughter-in-law of the Xiao family, but in the final analysis, it was for Xiao Jingting.

The reason why he seemed to love her so much was because she was Xiao Jingting's wife.

The divorce agreement that was put on the table was still used by the old lady to pressure her.

Regardless of whether Xiao Jingting is willing to live with her or not, no matter how this marriage started, it is a foregone conclusion.

Now that she is asking for a divorce and making a scene in public, it is an insult to Xiao Jingting and a slap in the face of the Xiao family.

Ugh.

Grandsons are their family members, and granddaughters-in-law are always outsiders.

"Why are you in a daze?"

The man's voice brought Fu Runing back to her senses.

When she raised her eyes, she saw Xiao Jingting standing there, looking at her calmly.

Fu Runing suppressed the emotions in her eyes and returned to her usual unreasonable and arrogant self.

She looked at him and asked, "Why didn't you tell me that grandma was coming this morning? You were so eager for grandma to see us separated?"

The man said calmly: "I called you, but you didn't answer."

"Really?" Fu Runing picked up her cell phone in confusion.

When I opened the screen, there were indeed two missed calls.

Xiao Jingting lowered his eyes and took a glance, and saw a strange letter note, and some doubts appeared in his eyes.

"What's this note?"

"Nothing." Fu Runing quickly turned the phone upside down on the table to prevent him from seeing it.

What else could it be?

LYC, rotten leaf vegetables.

Fortunately, Xiao Jingting was not interested in her affairs and did not ask any further questions.

He glanced at the jewelry box on the table and said in a flat voice, "If you don't want what happened today to happen again, you should move back here as soon as possible and don't create any unnecessary complications. Otherwise, you won't be able to take anything with you when you leave, including the dog."

Fu Runing folded her arms and looked at him, half jokingly saying, "Why? Do you feel empty, lonely and cold when you sleep without me?"

"If you feel lonely, I'll reluctantly move back to keep you company."

Xiao Jingting listened to her frivolous tone of the female sea king, and a look of displeasure appeared between his clear and cold brows.

His voice turned cold, "Fu Runing, you were the one who begged me to act with you."

These words instantly wiped the smile from her curved brows.

"Yes, yes, I begged you. I won't do it again. Since I'm so well behaved, I hope Mr. Xiao will give me more when the time comes."

Xiao Jingting watched her put on that hypocritical smile again, and he didn't bother to talk nonsense with her. He just said in a deep voice: "Move the things back."

After saying that, he turned and walked out of the room.

Fu Runing rolled her eyes as she watched him leave.

She thought about it and decided that it wouldn't be impossible to just add a mattress to the master bedroom and sleep there.

She now especially missed the days when Xiao Jingting was away on business for ten days or half a month and didn't come back.

In the end, she collected all the jewelry boxes delivered today. Instead of putting them in her small treasury, she placed them in the corner of Xiao Jingting's closet.

Some things have a fixed price, and she doesn't want it now.
