Chapter 71 Shen Zhichu has changed
Shen Zhichu curled up in the quilt, the pungent smell of the medicine making her eyes sore.
Li Jingshen didn't know what to say. After applying the medicine, he got up, took his pajamas and went into the bathroom.
There was a sound of running water inside. Shen Zhichu struggled to stand up and took the medicine from the drawer. He put the medicine into his mouth and swallowed it dry without taking any water.
Li Jingshen showered very quickly and came out in just ten minutes. He went straight to the bed and hugged Shen Zhichu into his arms, covering himself with the quilt.
Shen Zhichu felt a little uncomfortable being held so forcefully by him. She moved a little, and finally said in a somewhat impatient tone: "Can you sleep in another room?"
"Where should I sleep?"
Shen Zhichu looked gloomy: "There are so many rooms. If you really can't find one, go sleep in Xia Mingyue's room. Didn't you sleep well the night before last?"
"When did I ever sleep in her room?"
Shen Zhichu's body stiffened slightly. Li Jingshen hadn't slept with Xia Mingyue? Then what did Xia Mingyue mean by the wound on her neck that she showed her yesterday... and what did she mean by those words?
Shen Zhichu didn't believe Li Jingshen, but she also felt that there was no need for him to lie to her.
So what if they hadn't slept together the night before? They'd known each other for so many years, done what they should and shouldn't have done, so there was no difference in essence.
Shen Zhichu's expression changed quickly, and he finally chose to remain silent.
"Mingyue and I are not as bad as you think."
Shen Zhichu sneered: "What am I thinking?"
Although she was so aggressive, Li Jingshen didn't feel angry at all, instead he found it quite interesting.
"Jealous?"
Silence means acquiescence. The more Chen Zhichu kept silent, the more Li Jingshen confirmed his guess.
Li Jingshen chuckled softly, and the hand holding Shen Zhichu couldn't help but tightened. He leaned over and whispered in her ear, "I have never had sex with Mingyue, let alone slept in the same room with her. Are you satisfied?"
How is it possible... Li Jingshen and Xia Mingyue have been together for so many years, and they can be so affectionate in front of her, how is it possible that nothing has happened?
"It's none of my business that you didn't have sex with her." Shen Zhichu dodged and shrank forward to avoid the hot air coming towards her from behind.
"Aren't you moved?"
Chen Zhichu suddenly laughed. She was naturally charming with her black eyebrows and crow eyelashes, and now her smile was full of allure. However, her eyes looked sinister in the dark night, as if they contained poisonous needles.
"I'm not touched. I have a good memory. I can't forget who caused my injuries just because I've been given a little sweet talk."
Li Jingshen's usual trick is to slap someone and then give them a candy to appease them. Sometimes he is too lazy to even give them candy. His gentleness is a luxury to Shen Zhichu. She has longed for it but never received it.
And now... she no longer needs it.
Li Jingshen never thought that even after he lowered his posture so much, Shen Zhichu was still so ignorant.
For the first time, he felt unfamiliar with Shen Zhichu in his arms, as if he had never known him before.
Was this still the same Shen Zhichu who shamelessly chased after him? Was this still the Shen Zhichu whose eyes were filled with smiles whenever he saw her? The Shen Zhichu who had to compromise...
Li Jingshen's mind flashed back to a news report about Shen Zhichu that he had seen a few years earlier. In the video, Shen Zhichu faced all kinds of tricky and pervasive questions from reporters. She had a cold and firm attitude and responded to each question, leaving those slick reporters no room to exploit any loopholes.
Shen Zhichu's behavior makes it impossible to tell that she is only 23 years old. She is calm and composed, and sometimes acts like an old fox in work and social activities.
That was the Shen Zhichu at the beginning, except that she gave all her tenderness to him alone. He never cared about it, so he didn't even know when Shen Zhichu's attitude towards him changed.
Li Jingshen didn't dare to think about it. Even if it was just an imagination, he felt uncomfortable as if being pricked by needles.
Li Jingshen suddenly stretched out his hand towards her face, but before he put his hand down, Shen Zhichu closed her eyes tightly, her eyelashes trembling, and her lips shaking uncontrollably.
This was a subconscious reaction. Seeing Li Jingshen reaching out his hand towards her face, she thought he was going to hit her.
Li Jingshen's heart ached more than before. He touched Shen Zhichu's face and said, "You are as timid as a rabbit, but you have to say some words to deliberately anger me. Tell me, are you looking for a fight? You still don't learn your lesson even though you are injured all over."
People may not have long memories, but they are definitely afraid of pain. Shen Zhichu raised his eyes, the coldness in his eyes had not faded yet. Such a Shen Zhichu made Li Jingshen feel a little powerless.
Chen Zhichu is like a hedgehog, he doesn't respond to anything soft or hard. He can't stand seeing her cry when he's hurt, but she doesn't care about a piece of candy now. She is a typical person who doesn't respond to anything.
The two of them were in a stalemate for a while, and finally Li Jingshen covered her eyes and said, "Go to sleep."
Li Jingshen didn't want to say anything more to her, for fear that she would become rebellious and cause the wound, which had just been bandaged, to bleed again.
"Since we haven't divorced, you will always be my wife."
