Chapter 71 My husband is so awesome!
Yu Zhiwan was guzzling water when she noticed Xie Jingmo staring at her. She almost choked: "Ahem! Why are you looking at me?"
The man stopped at the last step, his slender body leaning against the railing, one hand in his trouser pocket, his peach blossom eyes full of meaning: "Are you thirsty?"
Yu Zhiwan: "...You think I drink too much water?"
"I'll drink it." Yu Zhiwan snorted proudly, took two more sips, and then put down the cup.
Then he walked upstairs and bumped into Xie Jingmo on purpose when he passed by him.
Yu Zhiwan didn't know where her temper came from. In the past, she would definitely restrain herself, be quiet and obedient, and would not do such childish and naughty things.
But in front of Xie Jingmo, she would not suppress herself and could play with him carefree, even a little spoiled.
Well, after all, it was all caused by Xie Jingmo's spoiled behavior.
It's because he praises her beauty and goodness every day and encourages her to do whatever she wants. It's all because of him who spoils her.
Xie Jingmo watched the girl's back as she went upstairs, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he slowly glanced at her water cup, his eyes full of meaning.
…
Yu Zhiwan returned to the bedroom, raised his hand to feel the position of his heart, and found that drinking water seemed to be really useful.
From then on, whenever her heart beat faster, she should drink more water!
Yu Zhiwan felt a little annoyed when he saw the cartoon drawn with a fluorescent pen on his wrist.
I finally found a way to confess my feelings in a subtle way, but I haven’t finished telling Xie Jingmo yet.
Or... stop being so subtle, be bold and confess directly?
Although when they first got the marriage certificate, Xie Jingmo said that they pretended to be in love in order to comfort their grandparents.
But when not in front of her grandparents, Xie Jingmo is also very close to her.
If she confesses boldly, there should be a chance of success, right?
But she was afraid that all the kindness Xie Jingmo showed her was just her wishful thinking.
What if Xie Jingmo rejects her confession?
When she thought of this possibility, Yu Zhiwan felt uncomfortable for a moment, and suddenly she began to understand why people said on the Internet that when you like someone, you will become cautious and worried about gains and losses.
But she still wanted to try.
I want to confess boldly.
…
The next morning.
Yu Zhiwan was discussing the opening of a branch with He Caiwei in Jinghong store when she suddenly received a call from Xie Jingmo, saying that the matter of Yu Changde’s car accident had been investigated.
Yu Zhiwan opened her eyes wide in surprise: "So fast? That's amazing!"
The man on the other end of the phone raised his eyebrows slowly and said, "Who's so awesome?"
Yu Zhiwan: "You!"
Xie Jingmo: "Who am I to you?"
Yu Zhiwan: “…”
She glanced at He Caiwei beside her sheepishly, then covered her mouth with her hands and whispered quietly: "Xie Jingmo is amazing! My husband is amazing!"
A sexy low laugh came from the receiver, pleasant and casual. "Thank you for the compliment, ma'am. I'll come find you now and tell you what happened."
Yu Zhiwan: "Okay, I'll wait for you to come over!"
After hanging up the phone, I saw He Caiwei's face trying to hold back laughter, and I knew that no matter how quietly I spoke, she still heard it.
Yu Zhiwan suddenly felt ashamed: "Stop laughing, stop laughing, and get back to business!"
After discussing the matter of opening a branch with He Caiwei, Yu Zhiwan waited for Xie Jingmo to come.
I don’t know why, but I miss him so much after just half a day of not seeing him.
Besides, she was really curious about what happened in the car accident between Yu Changde and Tao Shuqin.
While Yu Zhiwan was waiting in the store, he saw a little stray dog on the side of the road. It was not a rare breed, just an ordinary dog with yellow hair.
Yu Zhiwan's heart tightened when she saw it, because the color was too similar to the puppy she raised when she was a child.
She thought of the puppy again.
Also, I thought of the bloody dog skin in the kitchen...
Yu Zhiwan's pupils trembled violently, and she pursed her lips tightly, so hard that her lips turned pale.
I thought that after so many years, those childhood events could be buried quietly.
However, once she saw a dog with similar fur color and size, those hidden sadness and heartache came from all directions and piled up heavily in her heart.
The puppy outside the store had a pair of round, bright black eyes and was wagging its tail happily, looking very cute.
As Yu Zhiwan watched, tears welled up in her eyes and she unconsciously clenched her fingers.
It really looks like the little dog she once raised...
Ever since the puppy died, she never dared to keep a dog again.
But now, she suddenly wanted to adopt the puppy outside the store.
Maybe it’s because her current family is Xie Jingmo.
Let her feel safe enough to believe that what happened in her childhood will not happen again...
Yu Zhiwan pinched her fingertips hard, couldn't help but lift her legs and walked out of the store.
Her legs felt like they were stepping on cotton, and she didn't know how she walked over, but finally she arrived in front of the little stray dog.
The puppy squatted on the ground obediently, not biting anyone at all, wagging its tail in a friendly manner, with an expression on its face that looked like it was smiling.
Yu Zhiwan squatted down, and as soon as he got closer to the puppy, his hands began to tremble violently.
The scene before my eyes seemed to be covered with a scarlet blood color, and those scenes that were deliberately forgotten in the corner emerged one after another.
In the kitchen, a bloody puppy was being dismembered, its skin dripping with blood, and the meat was steaming on the plate...
And that piece of meat that was stuffed into her mouth...
Yu Zhiwan's face turned pale, he stood up suddenly and staggered back.
She still didn't dare.
She still didn't have the courage to raise it again.
It seemed like she couldn't cross that threshold, nor could she heal her childhood self...
Just as Yu Zhiwan walked out of the store, Xie Jingmo came over.
As soon as he got out of the car, he saw Yu Zhiwan walking towards the little stray dog on the side of the road, and his expression suddenly tensed.
He already knew the dog that Yu Zhiwan adopted when she was a child.
I also learned about her desperate and helpless childhood.
At this moment, his girl pursed her lips and tried to walk towards the little stray dog, as if she didn't want to be trapped in the past and wanted to try to take that step.
Xie Jingmo watched silently without blinking, his jaw gradually tightening.
In a few seconds, Yu Zhiwan's face turned pale and he staggered back.
He strode over and held her up with his hand: "Wanwan!"
Yu Zhiwan raised her head in a daze, her eyes misty and red. She stared blankly at the man in front of her, her voice trembling: "Xie Jingmo..."
The next second, she was embraced tenderly by the man.
The clean, pleasant woody scent penetrated her nose, and the man's warm body temperature also came over her. Yu Zhiwan's nose felt sore, and she could no longer hold back. Her small hands tightly grasped the man's white shirt, her movements full of dependence, as if she had come to a small world that belonged to her alone, a place that sheltered her from the wind and rain...
The glaring blood-red before my eyes slowly faded away...
