Xu Jialan might never forget that ho...
Chapter 116 Shen Xichuan knew he was completely screwed
Just now, the living room was so quiet that the only sound was the wind blowing in from the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Also, the sound of light breathing.
It is so lonely.
Shen Xichuan slowly squeezed between her fingers and held her hand.
"I'm still thinking, if I wasn't by your side today, and you were bullied and wronged, and I couldn't be by your side to protect you, would you... be sad?"
When he was in the mall, he saw her expression, which was extremely calm.
Just like what Ye Shuman said, she had heard it countless times and it could no longer stir up any waves.
She was like that, which made him feel very distressed.
Sad...?
Xu Jialan did not answer immediately. He lowered his eyes and looked at the two people's clasped hands.
After a while, she said, "What are you sad about?"
The man's expression paused.
"Achuan."
Xu Jialan paused for a few seconds before continuing, "I've never been a dodder in a greenhouse that needs constant protection. You said you're my husband, so protecting me is your responsibility."
"But you are also the patron saint of many people. I would feel proud and honored by you."
Shen Xichuan's Adam's apple slid.
Xu Jialan tilted her head slightly and looked at him. "You don't have to feel guilty. I don't feel wronged at all, because I know that my husband is a hero."
She raised her hand, gently placed it on his face, and stroked it gently, "You do what you should do, and I have my own things to do. You protect the people, and I... will protect you."
I look up to you too.
She has always known that the Shen Xichuan she likes is a man with ideals.
Back then, the light in him brought her salvation.
Now, she also hopes that this light can shine on more people.
Loneliness, grievance, sadness...what do they matter at the moment when your life is in danger?
That orange-red color is sacred and also the supreme glory.
She was proud of it.
Shen Xichuan looked down at her, his deep eyes floating with hot emotions.
How could he have missed her for so long?
In this world, only Xu Jialan would say such words to him.
He went to protect the people, and she... protected him.
Such sincerity is also shocking enough.
It made his heart burn.
He believed that she would really do it...to protect him.
Shen Xichuan knew that he was completely screwed.
He closed his eyes, opened them, lowered his head, and slowly placed his forehead against hers.
“Mrs. Shen.”
Xu Jialan nodded.
"If you keep talking, I might have to take another cold shower."
He sighed softly.
Xu Jialan: “…”
Her fair cheeks slowly turned a light pink.
After a while, he whispered, "Actually... you don't have to wash it."
There was an indescribable tremor in his voice.
After the words were spoken, the living room fell into a brief silence.
Shen Xichuan’s Adam’s apple moved noticeably, “Xu Jialan, don’t…”
Before he could finish his words, Xu Jialan raised his chin slightly and gently kissed his lips.
Shen Xichuan: “…”
After a few seconds, she let go.
Their eyes met.
There were messy breathing sounds and rapid heartbeats in my ears.
The warm breaths intertwined together.
The air in the living room was scorching hot.
Xu Jialan lowered his eyelashes slightly, not daring to look into his eyes.
She was very thin-skinned, and that one sentence had taken all her courage.
Shen Xichuan's eyes were dark and unclear, staring at her closely.
"Don't you regret it?"
Xu Jialan was slightly startled, "What do you regret?"
Seeing her reaction, Shen Xichuan chuckled, “Yes, it’s legal.”
Xu Jialan: “…”
The next second, Shen Xichuan grabbed the back of her neck, found her lips, and kissed her.
Xu Jialan felt as if his breath was taken away in an instant.
She was like a drowning fish, clutching the bathrobe tightly on the chest of the man in front of her.
Shen Xichuan’s hand slowly fell on the skin behind her ear.
His fingertips, covered with light calluses, carelessly stroked her earlobe.
A tingling sensation arises spontaneously.
Xu Jialan slowly curled up his fingers and clenched them.
The window screen not far away gently floated up and down.
Two figures hugging each other emerged vaguely.
The night in South City is lively and noisy. The gorgeous lights become the bright colors that embellish the city in the dark night. Countless strangers pass by in the hustle and bustle of traffic.
In the vast sea of people, reunion after a long separation is the best proof of fate.
All the unreality disappeared in the lingering kiss.
There is a gentle sound of wind in the distance.
There was a constant panting sound in my ears.
The buttons on the back suddenly came undone.
Xu Jialan's eyes were filled with peach blossoms, "Go back... go back to the bedroom."
The veins on the man's forehead bulged, as if he was enduring something.
His breathing was unstable. He lowered his eyes to look at her and said in a hoarse voice, "Hold me tight."
Xu Jialan subconsciously hugged his shoulders tightly.
Shen Xichuan held her waist with one hand and carried her steadily towards the bedroom.
He didn't even seem to need to watch where he was going.
Warm lips sought and kissed.
Xu Jialan's mind was slightly confused, "..."
In the dim environment, everything seems to become clearer.
A rustling sound was heard.
The bathrobe fell to the floor.
Xu Jialan heard the sound of a drawer opening.
She subconsciously turned her head to look over.
I saw a square box of something appear inside at some point.
Shen Xichuan tore off the film outside the box.
Vaguely, Xu Jialan saw the letters on the box.
“…”
Her fingertips trembled. "When did you... buy it?"
There are only two of them living at home.
Since the things in the drawer were not put there by her, it goes without saying that he must have put them there.
Shen Xichuan tore it open and glanced down at her.
“After moving in.”
Now that you have obtained the marriage certificate, there are some things that you naturally need to prepare.
He just kept waiting for her to be ready.
So, this thing comes in handy today.
Xu Jialan's cheeks were burning hot and red.
Shen Xichuan leaned over, held her face, and kissed her again.
"Don't be afraid." He murmured.
Xu Jialan didn't say anything and curled his fingers.
…
I don’t know how long it took.
Xu Jialan's mind was blank.
At this moment, she actually thought about what An Yuening had said.
“…”
She lay weakly on the man's shoulder.
Shen Xichuan held her back and touched her with a lot of sweat.
He tilted his head, kissed her ear, and said hoarsely, "Shall I carry you to take a bath?"
Xu Jialan hummed lazily.
He didn't even open his eyes.
Shen Xichuan chuckled, then picked her up and walked towards the bathroom.
Xu Jialan: “…”
The corners of her eyes turned red, and her nails couldn't help but dig hard into his back.
Leaving behind a series of crescent-shaped red marks.
She never expected that Shen Xichuan would have such a bad side.
