Chapter 18: Expensive Watch
Under the light of candles, the whole room was in a dimness, and the gauze curtains covered the entire bed.
Meng Ruoxi held her breath, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
The moonlight outside the window shone on her, forming a circle of dark shadow.
The flickering candlelight burned all night long and was not extinguished until dawn the next day.
She remained drowsy for the rest of the day.
She spent every day in bed, waking up and sleeping, sleeping and waking up, over and over again. Finally, after the seventh day, she got out of bed.
Shi Yanjin sat at the table, pointed at the food on the table, and looked at her with a smile, "Xixi, these are freshly cooked noodles. The water is on the shelf. You can eat them after you wash up."
Meng Ruoxi nodded expressionlessly and went to wash up mechanically.
My legs felt so heavy as I walked forward, and every step felt like an execution.
At this moment, a thought came to my mind.
Could it be that Shi Yanjin wanted her to get pregnant sooner, so he was doing this day and night.
Once an idea is formed, it is difficult to disappear.
His hands were soaked in water, his eyes were blankly in thought.
If I get pregnant, I'm afraid I won't be able to get rid of the pregnancy.
How could she have been so naive to think that Shi Yanjin was easy to control?
Not only is he difficult to control, he is also calculating in every way.
On the surface, he was very nice to me, but that was all within his acceptable range. Once I crossed his bottom line, I was afraid that the outcome would be...
He shook his head, not daring to think about it any further.
When you are trying to get the skin of a tiger, there will be no danger as long as you don't pull out its whiskers. There is no need to scare yourself.
After washing up, she put down the towel, sat on the chair, and picked up the chopsticks as Shi Yanjin pushed the noodles to her. She ate while listening to him talk about the next arrangements.
"I won't be able to stay at home with you tomorrow. My leave from school has run out. If you're bored, you can go to the Youth League Center to play with Chen Xueying."
After swallowing the food in her mouth, Meng Ruoxi nodded, "Don't worry about me. I will bring you food when the time comes. You don't have to bother mom everywhere."
As she was newly married, she was doing her duty as a wife.
The smile in his eyes deepened, and Shi Yanjin was visibly happy, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
The hand holding the chopsticks paused for a moment, and the next moment Meng Ruoxi continued eating as if nothing had happened.
After he finished eating, Shi Yanjin started to eat the other untouched bowl of noodles.
The dowry that had been moved in had not yet been sorted out, so Meng Ruoxi went to sort it out when she had nothing to do.
Inside the beautifully packaged box, there is a pink diamond-studded leather watch. The style is simple and elegant, and it looks exceptionally good.
She didn't recognize the brand. As she looked at it carefully, a hand reached out from behind her and said, "I'll put it on for you."
Without hesitation, Meng Ruoxi stretched out her left hand and let him put on the watch.
Her hands are slender and white, without a single hair on them, and her skin is smooth and delicate. The watch looks really good on her hands.
"It looks very beautiful." Shi Yanjin praised from the bottom of his heart, his eyes full of admiration as he looked at her hands.
Meng Ruoxi smiled, stretched her hand up to the sky, and looked around with squinted eyes.
Although I don't know what brand it is, it must be expensive.
It’s a pity that I can’t wear it on my hand for long.
"Do you like it?" Shi Yanjin asked.
Meng Ruoxi nodded, "I like it."
There is no woman who doesn't like beautiful accessories.
Although she prefers fame, fortune and status.
Shi Yanjin showed a satisfied smile.
This is an Omega watch that he carefully selected last month and purchased through countless channels, costing him nearly five thousand dollars.
Now it seems worth it.
