Chapter 49: Her boudoir is filled with stickers of male celebrities
"I... I was like this more than a month ago. Whenever I smelled fishy smells, I would vomit violently. As for when it would get better, it was just before..."
Shen Jinxiao spoke intermittently, feeling a little embarrassed to continue the rest of the words.
"Go ahead, tell me the course of your illness so I can diagnose the cause."
Meng Shuyue raised her eyes to look at him and asked the question truthfully.
She had no idea that she had already been seen by almost everyone at this moment.
Shen Jinxiao had no place to put his eyes and looked around randomly.
"Then I'll tell you the truth."
"Just...just when I kissed you before, I didn't feel like vomiting so much..."
Meng Shuyue narrowed her eyes and looked at him calmly, but in fact, the back of her head felt as if someone had hit her hard, and her brain was screaming wildly.
"Kiss... me..."
She twitched her lips calmly, and quickly loosened her hand on his wrist as if it was burned, and stood up, wishing she could get as far away from him as possible.
When she first became his pen pal via letters, she thought he was a mature and steady person, but she never expected that he was so reserved in real life.
She now understood the cause of the disease. This man was actually the same as the man she had seen before who took his wife's place in morning sickness. He was taking her place in morning sickness.
No wonder she felt strange. Why did her mother say that she had severe morning sickness in the past, but she didn't have any morning sickness at all?
But all those men who endured morning sickness on behalf of their wives were husbands who loved their wives deeply. But how could it be possible for a cheap husband who had only met her once and ran away the next day to have such deep feelings for her?
Meng Shuyue sat back at the table, picked up a pen and wrote a prescription for anti-nausea and tranquilizing the nerves, then turned around and went to the herbal medicine cabinet to get the medicine.
Shen Jinxiao came over at some point and grabbed her hand to stop her from taking the medicine.
"It's so late, you should go to bed quickly. I suddenly felt much better just now."
He is telling the truth.
When he saw her, he no longer felt dizzy and his stomach was no longer burning.
As Shen Jinxiao spoke, his big hand couldn't help but hold the woman's delicate and cold little hand, trying to wrap it with the warmth of his palm.
"Then...then I'll go sleep in the attic, and you...you can sleep on the bench, and I'll get you a bed and blanket!"
Meng Shuyue pulled his hand back in panic and ran away in his slippers.
After a while, the man stood at the bottom of the attic, watching the woman climb up to the attic to get the quilt, and said worriedly, "Let me go up to get the quilt. It's not convenient for a pregnant woman like you to climb up and down!"
He looked at the woman standing on the narrow stairs, holding her belly, his heart trembling. He stood below and stretched out his hand, afraid that she would fall.
When her thin little body knelt at the entrance of the attic to get the quilt, the worry on Shen Jinxiao's face was completely frozen, and when her skirt fluttered, she was replaced by a critical scene in front of her.
Shen Jinxiao looked away awkwardly, only to feel warm liquid slowly dripping down his nose.
I wiped it with the back of my hand and found it was a nosebleed!
He felt dizzy. What happened to him who had never reacted to women?
Meng Shuyue turned around and dragged the quilt to the entrance of the attic, ready to hand it to the man downstairs at any time.
“Brother Shen!”
She called out, but the man below didn't respond.
"Brother Jin?"
The man downstairs still didn't respond.
"Brother Jin!"
Meng Shuyue called out hesitantly.
Sure enough, the man's body shook, and he raised his face covered in nosebleed to meet the woman's astonished gaze.
"Why...why are you bleeding so much from the nose?"
Meng Shuyue subconsciously wanted to come down to see him in a hurry, but he was not paying attention and missed a step, and fell down the stairs.
Shen Jinxiao was completely frightened, but fortunately his hands and feet were faster than his brain, and he hurriedly took two steps forward and held the woman's hips firmly with one hand.
The quilt from the attic fell down and covered the two people's heads.
The world around me suddenly became dark.
Meng Shuyue came back to her senses from the panic of falling just now, and felt a strong arm behind her, lifting her feet off the ground, and her hands subconsciously rested on the man's broad shoulders.
Her hands were not delicate because she had been cooking and working for more than a year, and there were many calluses on the palms.
But at this moment, she was lying on the man's coat, and her palms could still feel the thick calluses on the man's shoulders that were as hard as iron.
I've heard for a long time that the army trains frequently, and those soldiers have a thick layer of calluses on their shoulders because of carrying guns.
She was startled when she was in the tree before.
Later, when I returned to Kyoto, I applied herbal medicine to the peeling area on my heel for half a month, and it gradually got better.
Now, the memory of the death attacks her again.
She was so frightened that she couldn't stop shaking.
Throughout the space under the quilt, the sound of someone's drum-like heartbeat and rapid breathing echoed in my ears.
"Why are you shaking..."
The man's hoarse voice startled Meng Shuyue, who quickly pulled her hand away from his shoulder and covered her lips with her folded hands.
"I'm not... I'm not shaking..."
Shen Jinxiao held his soft and herbal-scented wife in one hand and lifted the quilt with the other.
The blinding light hit him, and he looked at the little girl in front of him who was covering her lips with her hands and looking at him pitifully, and his heart softened.
How come this little girl is cuter than the little wild cat in the backyard during the day?
At this moment, she was as tall as him, and he could clearly see the fear in her eyes.
But he is not a terrible beast, why is she so afraid of him?
Shen Jinxiao reached out and touched the top of her head, rubbed it and said, "Don't worry, you are pregnant, I won't do anything to you, I will carry you up to sleep, okay?"
His voice was suddenly filled with doting and a natural softness that no one could refuse.
Meng Shuyue nodded frantically, feeling relieved.
Shen Jinxiao carried her up the attic stairs with one hand.
The narrow and steep bamboo stairs made a difficult creaking sound.
Because of his height advantage.
After taking only two steps, he stuffed the woman in his arms into the small attic.
Before going down, his eyes unconsciously glanced around the furnishings in the attic.
It would be fine if he didn't look at it, but once he did, he felt like he was about to fall down.
He held on to the attic entrance with both hands, looking at the stickers of a man pasted all over the inside, and he was inexplicably filled with anger.
There are stickers of that man at the head and foot of the bed, and even on the dressing mirror.
"Who is that man?"
Shen Jinxiao's voice trembled and was full of grievance. He looked straight at Meng Shuyue, and his eyes turned red.
Meng Shuyue's face changed drastically when he saw this scene.
I didn't want him to go up to the attic just now, not only for that reason, but also because I was afraid he would misunderstand.
She hurriedly explained, "He's a very popular male star in Hong Kong right now. Don't get me wrong, I didn't steal him. I really didn't!"
Seeing that he still looked unconvinced, Meng Shuyue became annoyed.
She reluctantly tore off a small sticker of a male star from the pillow, slapped it on the man's forehead, and said bitterly, "If you don't believe me, take the photo and ask others. Don't look at me like that. I have never done anything to let you down!"
After saying that, she angrily closed the small door of the attic, completely blocking the man's angry sight.
