Lin Zhixing always knew that her boyfriend's uncle, He Yanchen, was cold-hearted and unapproachable. She had heard that the man was noble, self-controlled, and did not associate with women.
..."Did I wake you up by making too much noise?"
He Yanchen was very quick to notice that she had woken up.
Lin Zhixing didn't dare to struggle, his whole body stiff as he said, "He, Mr. He, I can just walk down by myself."
"I saw you were sleeping, and I wanted to carry you to bed."
The man didn't stop walking while speaking. He just carried her to the second bedroom and placed her carefully beside the bed.
All this tossing and turning drove away the last bit of sleepiness that Lin Zhixing felt.
"Sorry, I wanted to read a book, but I fell asleep."
Lin Zhixing wiped the corner of his mouth and felt relieved after making sure that he was not drooling.
"It's okay, just rest if you're tired." He Yanchen was silent for a moment, "But your industry does have a lot of overtime and little rest. If you ever feel tired, tell me and I'll help you find an institution to do research."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. He."
Lin Zhixing is very clear that he will definitely stick to the clinical path.
He Yanchen also meant well.
She naturally wanted to thank him.
He Yanchen watched Lin Zhixing sit up from the bed before asking, "Have you seen those clothes in the cloakroom? Do you like any? If not, I'll have someone pick out a few more and bring them to you."
"What clothes? Is there another event you want me to accompany you to?"
This was Lin Zhixing’s first reaction.
He Yanchen raised his hand and adjusted the end of the woman's hair. "Aren't you going to a class reunion tomorrow? I can't accompany you, so I want to participate in other ways."
When I think of the clothes He Yanchen chose.
Lin Zhixing immediately thought of the cheongsam.
Although she didn't know the price of the cheongsam, judging from the accessories it came with, it must have been expensive.
"No, my classmates are all ordinary people. When we get together, we just sit together and chat, so ordinary clothes are fine."
Lin Zhixing spoke very sincerely.
He Yanchen didn't try to persuade her any further, "I was inconsiderate."
Thinking about the potentially priceless value of those clothes, Lin Zhixing couldn't help but ask, "If I haven't worn them, can I return them?"
"Then go and take a look. Pick at least three sets you like and keep them. You can return the others."
He Yanchen already understood Lin Zhixing's character.
If he didn't limit the quantity, Lin Zhixing would definitely ask him to return all the clothes.
Three sets?
When Lin Zhixing heard this number, he already felt something was wrong.
When she and the man walked into the cloakroom, she was so surprised to see more than twenty sets of clothes hanging in the previously empty cabinet that she could hardly close her mouth.
"Why... so many sets of clothes!"
Lin Zhixing originally thought that there would be at most seven or eight sets, or at most ten sets.
I didn’t expect there were so many, almost filling up an entire closet!
He Yanchen stood aside and said, "Pick some and keep at least three sets. If you like them all, you can keep them all."
“…”
Only then did Lin Zhixing take out the clothes and look at them.
Among the more than twenty sets of clothes, at least half are dresses.
Five of them were long skirts that dragged on the ground.
The remaining half is slightly more everyday.
Lin Zhixing hesitated for a long time, kept a set of daily style suits, and then chose two dresses of different styles.
After she had chosen the clothes, she said, "Mr. He, if you need a female companion for any activities in the future, I can just pick one of these sets. No need to ask someone to help me choose clothes. I'm a doctor, and I have to wear a white coat over any nice clothes."
He Yanchen suggested, "Then try it on and see if it fits."
Lin Zhixing nodded.
The man took the initiative to leave the space.
Lin Zhixing chose the champagne-colored floor-length dress, which was the most figure-conscious of the three items.
She first checked the zipper of her long skirt and confirmed that it was on the side before she took off her clothes and put on the skirt.
The overall design of the skirt is very simple, without complicated patterns, but the tailoring is very unique.
It fits her body perfectly and extends to the hem of the skirt.
The color of the fabric is like the bright and gentle morning light on the sea. It sways with the movement, crushing and reorganizing the soft light over and over again.
Lin Zhixing was still standing in front of the mirror admiring her beautiful dress.
"Are you dressed?"
A man's voice came from outside.
"Okay, that's it."
Lin Zhixing lowered his head again and carefully checked the zipper.
When I looked up, He Yanchen had already walked in.
The moment their eyes met, she could clearly feel the change of emotions hidden in the man's dark eyes.
She lowered her head, subconsciously pulled at her collar, adjusted the hem of her skirt, and said awkwardly, "Is it... inappropriate?"
She had never worn such a beautiful dress.
Naturally, I become less confident.
"It suits you very well."
He Yanchen's eyes fell on the woman, and his steps unconsciously moved forward step by step.
Lin Zhixing quickly lowered her head and lifted the hem of her skirt.
The man's slippers soon appeared in her sight.
When I looked up, I found that the distance between the two people had been shortened to less than half a meter.
The smell of woody perfume on men is clear and pleasant.
Lin Zhixing likes the smell of He Yanchen very much.
Men drink when socializing, but they don't smoke.
It seems that there is a special person to help him organize his clothes. Sometimes, in order to maintain his image, he will change two or even three suits a day.
But at this moment...
The two people were too close, and the smell was mixed with some dangerous information.
"He, Mr. He."
Lin Zhixing turned his head away quietly.
"Lin Zhixing, how much have you learned about me during this period?"
The man raised his palm and placed it very close to her waist.
At least if you move it slightly to the left, you can grab the woman's slender waist.
The man's thin lips were very close to her ear, and his hot breath sprayed near her earlobe with obvious temptation.
Lin Zhixing wanted to continue leaning back.
However, there was a wardrobe behind her, and there was no place to retreat.
She shook her head gently, "I, I still don't seem to understand you."
Lin Zhixing knew very well that it would be difficult for her to understand what kind of person He Yanchen was in a short period of time.
But she knew what the man wanted to do at this moment.
It is also clear that even if this matter starts immediately, the arrow is on the string.
Before everything started, as long as she showed her unwillingness, the man would definitely not continue...
Lin Zhixing also understands his own heart very well.
For the past twenty years, she had suppressed her emotions and been cautious for too long.
Today she is willing to follow her heart regardless of the consequences.
The man's hand gently pinched her chin, forcing her to look at him.
A pair of dark eyes met her gaze and asked, "Would you like to consider staying with me forever and getting to know me slowly..."
As the words fell, the distance between the two people became closer.
The man was tall and eroded the light bit by bit.
The woman in front of him was completely covered in shadow.
