Xia Wenxi woke up and didn't know what time it was, but her intuition told her that it must be late, because she was very hungry.

I moved my legs slightly under the covers, and my inner thighs were a little sore, but I didn't feel any other discomfort.

Hearing Lin Shen's even breathing, she knew he was still fast asleep. Last night... or rather, early this morning, anyway, even if Xia Wenxi wasn't asleep, she was too lazy to move when it was over. She only vaguely remembered that Lin Shen cleaned up everything afterwards, and it seemed that he even gave her a bath. However, she didn't know when Lin Shen went to bed.

Afraid of waking Lin Shen, she didn't dare turn around to get her phone from the bedside table, and could only continue to stare at Lin Shen's chin and Adam's apple.

Then she noticed a faint red mark on his collar, and thinking of last night, she couldn't help but blush. She didn't even realize that the person in front of her had already opened his eyes.

When did you wake up?

Lin Shen suddenly spoke, startling Xia Wenxi. She then pretended to be frightened and buried her face in his chest, rubbing against him. Actually, she wanted to make sure her face wasn't oily.

After rubbing it a few times to make sure it was clean, he looked up and replied, "I just woke up a little while ago."

Xia Wenxi reached out and touched Lin Shen's chin. Strangely, it felt prickly to the touch, even though it wasn't there last night.

"Will my beard grow overnight?"

Lin Shen gave a soft "hmm," a sound coming from his throat. Xia Wenxi touched his Adam's apple and could clearly feel the vibration of his vocal cords. She found it amazing, so she encouraged Lin Shen to continue speaking while she touched his Adam's apple again and again.

For what felt like the umpteenth time, Lin Shen reached out and grabbed her hand to stop her from moving around, otherwise the two of them would have been stuck here all day.

What would you like to eat for lunch?

"Hmm... It's so late, let's order takeout."

Xia Wenxi picked up her phone from the bedside table, and just as she was about to sit up, she felt a chill between her legs as she moved...

How embarrassing! I should have brought a change of clothes.

"I've washed your clothes, they should be dry by now. I'll go get them. You can order something to eat first."

Xia Wenxi nodded, blushing.

As Lin Shen picked up the clothes, he thought about buying some spare clothes for Wen Xi to keep at home so that it wouldn't be inconvenient.

After getting his clothes, Lin Shen went to the bathroom to wash up, leaving the room for Xia Wenxi to change.

Xia Wenxi quickly put on all her clothes, then got out of bed and slipped on her slippers to go wash up. However, she accidentally took a big step, and although it didn't hurt, it still felt a little strange.

Fortunately, after walking a few more steps, the feeling gradually disappeared, and I sat down again.

First, I opened WeChat and replied to the New Year's greetings from family and friends before opening the food delivery app to order food.

Halfway through the order, Lin Shen came out, and Xia Wenxi handed him her phone, saying, "I've finished ordering. See if there's anything else you want to order."

She responded with a light, minty kiss, and then the phone was taken from her.

When she finished washing up and came out, Lin Shen had already ordered the food. She checked the order and found that Lin Shen had forwarded the takeout order to him to pay for it.

"Don't forget, I'm richer than you now."

Xia Wenxi held her phone and smiled as she spoke to him.

"Yes, once I run out of money, I'll have to rely on you."

"No problem, no problem."

The two of them stayed up almost all night last night, and it was almost four o'clock when they finally ate dinner today, so Xia Wenxi should go home after dinner.

She's not going to work tomorrow, but Lin Shen still has to.

After arriving at the Xia family's gate, the two lingered in the car for almost half an hour before Xia Wenxi finally got out.

As she entered, Xia Wenxi pursed her lips, looking a little guilty, afraid that her slightly swollen lips would be noticed.

When she entered the house, she found that there was no one there. After walking around the living room, an aunt who takes care of Xiaoyuer came down from upstairs and told her that all the servants in the house were on holiday today, including housekeeper Zhou and Aunt Li.

Xia Wenxi took out her phone; the WeChat message she sent more than an hour ago in the family group chat still hadn't received a reply.

Could she be the first one to get up in the family?

Xia Wenxi put her phone in her pocket, went upstairs, and carried Xiaoyuer back to her room. She couldn't help but hug it and roll around on the bed a few times.

"It feels pretty good, Little Fish..."

After being held for a while, Xiaoyuer got impatient and left, so Xia Wenxi had to take out her phone to play again.

Coincidentally, I saw my own face again when I opened Weibo...

Why did I see it as soon as I opened the app? Because Xia Wenxi had specifically followed a few marketing accounts that liked to post gossip about wealthy families, so she saw it as soon as she opened the app today.

The photo was taken outside the concert hall, and at the time, none of them realized that they were being secretly photographed.

Good news is on the horizon! The heir to the Lin Group has met his girlfriend's parents.

[A Powerful Alliance: True Love or a Marriage of Convenience?]

Xia Wenxi clicked on the comment below to see what people were saying.

The top comment was: "[This is absolutely true love!!! I swear on my career!]"

Commentator's nickname: Liyu

Commentator's Weibo verified account: Assistant to the President of Lin's Group

Why is Assistant Liang surfing the internet using her real name?

Give him a thumbs up.

Xia Wenxi forwarded these Weibo posts to Lin Shen, who was probably still not home, so he replied a while later.

It's true love.

I'm poorer than you; if it's an arranged marriage, I'm afraid I won't have a chance.

Xia Wenxi lay on her back on the bed, holding up her phone to reply: [Actually, it's not necessarily true. Even if it's an arranged marriage, President Lin can still stand out with his looks and figure. Don't underestimate yourself.]

Lin Shen: [It's such an honor, thank you for your appreciation, Miss Xia]

After Xia Wenxi finished laughing, she didn't open Weibo again, so she didn't know that Assistant Liang's top comment was pushed down shortly afterward and replaced by another one.

We are true love.

Commentator: Lin Shen, Lin Group

...

January 4th was Ke Shurong's birthday. After lunch, Xia Wenxi went straight into the kitchen to make a cake for her mother.

Of course, since her skills were unreliable, I ordered one from a cake shop instead. What she made probably only served to create an atmosphere and demonstrate high emotional intelligence.

In the past, Ke Shurong's birthdays were usually celebrated with her family of four, or just the two of them, but this year's birthday was probably the most lively one yet.

Because there are also future daughters-in-law and future sons-in-law.

So Ko Shu-jung was especially happy, and even when she made a wish, the corners of her mouth didn't turn down at all.

There are two cakes on the table, one made by a bakery, exquisite and beautiful.

One was made by Xia Wenxi, the opposite of exquisite and beautiful.

However, Ko Shu-jung still insisted on sticking the candle on the antonym to make a wish.

"I wish my family to always be healthy and happy."

Ke Shurong silently recited in her heart.
