Chapter 10 10. Abstinence "Let's talk about married life." (Xiao Xiu...
I glanced at the time and it was just a normal overtime hour.
Is he interfering a bit too much...
Didn’t we agree not to interfere with each other after marriage?
Now I even have to ask what time I'll be home...
"Hang up, hang up." Perhaps the master of the family wanted to sleep, and was afraid that she would come home late and disturb his peace.
Yu Wan stared at her and refused to hang up. "Wow, are you rushing home to inspect the goods?"
"I don't have that intention." She turned on the disinfection light and locked the door.
"It's killing me. All I have left is my appetite."
When Mi Yanyan arrived downstairs at home, she saw the Guanyin Heart Mantra sent by Yu Wan and replied with a question mark.
Big Bowl: [You really need to avoid arrogance, impatience, and lust.]
…
She parked her motorcycle and looked up. The light in the study was on. Shi Jingzhou was probably working overtime again. He didn't have time to worry about what time she would come back. When she opened the door, there was no one or the dog to greet her. The two little ones went to bed early today.
Aunt Chen cleaned up the guest room early in the morning, so Shi Jingzhou would most likely check in directly tonight.
After taking a shower, Mi Yanyan turned off the bedroom light, secretly glad that she didn't have to sleep with him. She twisted her sore neck and lifted the quilt very lazily and leisurely.
The heat hit her face, and the man opened his eyelids and looked at her directly.
Mi Yanyan's voice that wanted to scream was stuck in her throat, and she asked in an extremely unnatural tone: "Why don't you make a sound?"
He pulled the quilt back and said coldly, "Why are you making noises while sleeping?"
Mi Yanyan was stunned beside the bed, not knowing whether to go up or leave. "The light in the study was on. I thought you were working overtime."
"I forgot to turn it off." He replied nonchalantly.
After hesitating for a long time, she cautiously asked him, "Aren't you going to sleep in the guest room tonight?" She asked Aunt Chen to clean the guest room, and Shi Jingzhou also acquiesced. She thought it was a tacit understanding among everyone, but she didn't expect it was just her idea.
The person on the bed chuckled softly in his throat, quickly stood up, opened the door, and raised his chin to signal her to come over.
Mi Yanyan followed him to the guest room, turned the door lock, pressed the switch, and in the bright light, a cat and a dog on the bed opened their eyes lazily.
An expression that said, "Human, you are a little rude."
She quickly turned off the ceiling light and closed the door. She shook her hands behind her back and explained with a wry smile, "It's all a misunderstanding. They never go to bed normally!" How could these two devils go to bed and sleep, and they chose to do so when Shi Jingzhou was at home.
"Cats and dogs are not allowed in the bedroom, on the bed, or even in the guest room." Shi Jingzhou repeated with a serious expression.
"Yes, I promise." Mi Yanyan felt guilty and lacked confidence. After all, no one is blind.
"The bed in the guest room is not clean." Shi Jingzhou stated the objective facts ruthlessly, and she heard the voice-over.
He would never set foot in this guest room again.
Feeling guilty, Mi Yanyan quietly leaned towards the bed. After coming back, Shi Jingzhou did not lie down again. Both of them were half lying on the bed. She was playing with her mobile phone, and the other was watching her playing with the phone sideways.
Her ears felt hot from being stared at. She turned off the screen, met his gaze, and slowly asked, "What do you want to say?"
Shi Jingzhou was quite blunt and took over the conversation and said, "Let's talk about married life."
Their faces were calm, as if they were in a meeting, and they were not talking about their marital life, but about drug development and sales channels.
She pulled the neckline of her nightgown up halfway and comforted herself that what was meant to come would eventually come.
He's been away from home all day, and now he wants to talk about his married life. It's hard to tell if he's just trying to be nice. Thinking of this, she relaxed a little, curled her eyes, and whispered, "Okay."
Shi Jingzhou was still hesitant and wanted to discuss things step by step. Unexpectedly, Mi Yanyan was more enthusiastic than he had imagined. She continued, "Since we are husband and wife, we must face the normal way of getting along."
Mi Yanyan understood that this was a hint to her.
Sleeping together is inevitable, but other things need to be faced as well.
"For example, hugs and kisses will happen, so you have to be prepared."
Listening to Shi Jingzhou speak, it sounded like she was preparing a client for pre-operative psychological support. Anesthesia for both kittens and puppies carries associated risks, so parents should be prepared.
Hugs, kisses...
Is that all?
She pursed her lips, thinking that this man was really not good enough and was very weak.
There was no further words to say. Mi Yanyan was still waiting, and the other party was also waiting. She reacted and replied seriously.
"Okay, I'll be prepared and I can accept all the risks."
Mi Yanyan perfectly replicated the responses she heard every day in the hospital.
risk?
Shi Jingzhou was obviously stunned for a few seconds, and after thinking about it, he thought that she might be talking about something further.
After all, when two adult men and women engage in intimate activities legally and in compliance with regulations, there may indeed be other risks, which is reasonable.
This is what he really wanted to say.
Very good, Mi Yanyan completely understood what he meant. She is very smart, smarter than those people in the company who don’t understand what he is saying.
"As long as you can accept it."
Seeing that the other party had no intention of continuing the discussion, Mi Yanyan could understand that with such a hidden illness, and because of the impulse to exaggerate the real data, it would indeed not end well if she put herself in the other person's shoes.
Fortunately, everyone is a decent person and will not expose her at this time. Maintaining the surface is her specialty. In the days to come, she will definitely behave well and try her best to maintain her husband's dignity throughout his life.
It was hard to talk about it, and she felt a little sorry for Shi Jingzhou as she thought about it. He must have felt bad for being so good-looking but useless.
She fluttered her eyelashes a few times, her eyes a little moist, and patted the back of the hand of the person next to her twice, comforting her: "Don't worry, we'll take it slowly."
After saying that, she lay down in the bed, feeling warm and comfortable. She rarely felt so relieved because Shi Jingzhou was not well. The fatigue of a day of surgery swept over her. She turned sideways and looked up at Shi Jingzhou who was still in deep thought. She said goodnight to him softly, "Go to bed early, you will be fine."
A soft and moist sound fell into the eardrum from the quilt. When Mi Yanyan spoke softly, her voice was hazy and sweet, her tone was panting, and her pronunciation was well-behaved. Shi Jingzhou was so disturbed that he lost all his sleepiness. Whether he closed his eyes or opened them, all he could see was her crystal clear and plump lips when she spoke.
The person next to him was sleeping soundly, rarely facing him, breathing evenly.
It was almost dawn outside the window, and Shi Jingzhou just lay there with his head held high. Mi Yanyan felt too hot in her sleep and casually lifted the quilt.
He leaned over slightly to cover it, but it was soon opened again. He continued to cover it, but before he lay down, a pair of legs were placed on him without warning.
It doesn't weigh much, but it hits the mark.
He gave up sleeping altogether.
When Aunt Chen arrived at Zhongshan Villa, it was just after six o'clock and she ran into Shi Jingzhou coming out of the bathroom.
"Sir, why are you up so early today?" she asked with concern, a question in her heart. The young couple had just resumed living together, so it was natural that they couldn't get out of bed.
Shi Jingzhou rarely went to exercise today. He sat at the dining table watching the morning news and told Aunt Chen not to make coffee for him today.
Mi Yanyan packed up and went downstairs. She saw that Jingzhou looked a little tired. She felt bitter. Just a casual chat last night had hurt his pride and made her sleepless.
She secretly made up her mind that she would be more careful in the future and never touch upon such sensitive matters.
After greeting Aunt Chen with a refreshed spirit, she carefully sat down next to Shi Jingzhou, deliberately not choosing the seat opposite him. She moved her chair closer, picked up her milk, drank it, and asked softly, "Didn't you sleep well last night?"
His mind was filled with the weight pressing down on him, and he mumbled a muffled "hmm."
Mi Yanyan's attitude changed 180 degrees, and he was still a little uncomfortable. The faint fragrance of flowers lingered around him, and he had a thrilling breakfast.
Aunt Chen made the bed and went downstairs with peanuts and popcorn. As she walked to the laundry room, she looked puzzled, "Why are there pet snacks on the guest room sheets?"
Mi Yanyan froze. This little stinky dog was getting more and more presumptuous. Going to bed was already a heinous crime, and he even brought snacks to bed to enjoy. She pointed at Peanut angrily and said, "Silly little dog, if you keep doing this, I'll put a fence around the stairs and you won't be allowed to go up there."
Peanut looked at her in horror, turned around and wagged his tail at Shi Jingzhou, asking for snacks. Mi Yanyan became even angrier, and she called him a traitor and disloyal after just a few words.
"Don't feed her dried meat. Peanuts are for stupid dogs. They won't eat dog food if they eat too many snacks." Mi Yanyan snatched the jar and closed the lid again, without any room for negotiation.
Shi Jingzhou took out another piece of peanuts from somewhere and immediately put it into his mouth. He swallowed it with a crunch. He stroked the dog's head with a smile, "Not stupid at all, quite smart."
Peanut circled around him, his eyes intelligent, his mouth smacking and humming. Shi Jingzhou understood and whispered softly, "Got it. I'll come to you next time if there's work."
Mi Yanyan didn't hear clearly and couldn't understand why Shi Jingzhou's favorability with the dog increased sharply after returning from his business trip.
Aunt Chen put the four-piece set into the washing machine, came out to see the two of them playing with the dog and talking and laughing, and asked, "Will you be home for dinner tonight, Madam?" Mi Yanyan had an early shift today and should be off work early. She was thinking of making a few delicious dishes according to the medicinal recipes her mother gave her on time.
"No need," Mi Yanyan finished the last sip of milk and put down the glass. "I'm having a party with friends today, so I'll be back late."
"Where is it?" Shi Jingzhou was still playing with Peanuts. He asked her with his back to her, and his expression could not be seen.
"Yichuan." It was all Xiao Yichi's fault. He had to settle for such a place. South City was so big, and he had to take care of his own business. Whenever she thought of the time she and Shi Jingzhou met by chance, she would get angry at Yichuan.
"I'll pick you up when I'm done."
The request was both reasonable and strange. Mi Yanyan couldn't tell what was wrong. Taking into account the blow Shi Jingzhou had suffered last night, she couldn't bear to refuse. She replied "OK" and set off to work.
After clearing the table, Shi Jingzhou showed no intention of leaving and sat aside, scrolling through his phone.
He read the information Qin Muchuan had packed several times. This childhood friend must attend the high school reunion. He had been with him from kindergarten to high school graduation, so his presence was too important.
Secretary Zhou knocked on the door at the appointed time and came in to remind him, "Mr. Shi, it's time to leave. The people from Hongen Pharmaceutical will be at the company in 30 minutes."
Five years ago, Hongen Pharmaceutical also competed for market share with Ruisi Biopharmaceuticals. However, after the implementation of the centralized procurement policy, drug prices plummeted, profit margins were squeezed, and vicious market competition emerged. Shi Jingzhou, aligning with national policies and market trends, accelerated the consistency evaluation process for generic drugs, increasing approval rates and focusing on the rare disease sector. He quickly defeated Hongen, going from a close competitor to a vulnerable position.
Secretary Zhou looked at Shi Jingzhou with an expression that was exactly the same as when he took over the group and ruthlessly eliminated dissidents.
Mi Yanyan finally had time to check the alumni group and saw several messages @ her.
They are a few people in the class who can't sit still, and they posted some photos that look very retro.
In the seat near the back row, a boy was writing a test paper. His free left hand was holding an A4-sized teaching supplementary book, providing a small shade for the girl who was dozing on his arm next to him.
The expression of covering the mouth and laughing instantly flooded the group.
Mi Yanyan didn't know what to reply. The people in the group didn't know that she was married and were still making insignificant jokes.
Until the phone vibrated again, a familiar avatar that I hadn't contacted for a long time appeared in the conversation.
XC patted the chili pepper.
【Xiaoyan, see you later.】
