章節 71: 71 I won't take the initiative.

"Wife, I usually eat only three bowls of rice. But because you care about me and you served me such delicious food, I ate an extra bowl tonight." He gives her a playful wink. "You jumped into the river for me and I know you did it with love, so I ate an extra bowl tonight just for you..." He expects his wife to take charge eventually; her small frame probably doesn't have the strength to do so, he needs to save energy to be both resistant and encouraging.

"Third brother!" Xiao Yishan scolds him with a straight face.

Xiao Yuchuan doesn't back down. "Pfft! Even if you're my brother, it's not your place to interfere in how my wife and I develop our relationship." He'd let his second brother beat him twice because he deserved it, but when he's right, he's no pushover. He looks at Qingyue with a smile. "No need to rush, dear. I'm patient and can wait for you."

Su Qingyue simply lowers her head and focuses on eating.
