Lin Xi froze, not reacting for a moment. She tried to move but couldn't break free. "Fu Jingyao, what are you doing?"
A strong heartbeat emanated from the broad chest behind her, and the hand on her waist suddenly tightened, as if trying to meld her into his body.
Lin Xi was being choked and couldn't breathe. "Let go! Or I'll hit you!"
The man loosened his grip slightly, but still pressed tightly against her back. "Xixi, don't go."
Lin Xi finally understood what he meant; Fu Jingyao told her not to move out.
If you dislike her, why share a room with her?
Tonight, she hurriedly finished her dinner and ran back to her room, only to find it empty. She then rushed to Fu Jingyao's room and grabbed a pillow.
She lay down on the empty mattress and closed her eyes to sleep, but couldn't fall asleep at all; she felt extremely agitated.
Lin Xi wanted to take a shower and go back to sleep, but the bathroom was empty, without even a cloth.
Fu Jingyao moved everything very cleanly, his skill level was comparable to that of Butler Liu.
Lin Xi had no choice but to knock on Fu Jingyao's door to get a towel. She had only taken one step when the man hugged her from behind.
At this moment, she was seething with anger. "My name is Lin Xi."
Fu Jingyao readily agreed, "Wife, don't go."
The word "wife" pierced her ears clearly, and Lin Xi pushed him away, saying, "Let go of me, who's your wife?"
The man behind her hugged her tighter, speaking slowly and deliberately, "You are my wife, and you will always be my wife."
Lin Xi's eyes widened slightly, and she remained stunned for a while.
When such cheesy words came out of Fu Jingyao's mouth, her first reaction was, "Are you possessed by a ghost?"
"No." Fu Jingyao rested his chin on her shoulder, his tone tinged with guilt. "Wife, I'm sorry, I was wrong. Please don't move out, okay?"
I learned a trick online: apologize profusely and act cute.
Lin Xi's anger subsided considerably. "What did you do wrong?"
Fu Jingyao was extremely nervous. He tried hard to recall the apology templates he had seen online and spoke in a very formal and deliberate manner.
"I shouldn't have kissed you without permission, I shouldn't have touched you before I was properly clean, I shouldn't have failed to take you to the antique street this morning. In short, it's all my fault."
"I am deeply aware of my mistake and will never repeat it in the future."
"Honey, I promise you, please don't go."
Lin Xi covered her face, trying not to laugh. Where did he learn these words? They were a jumbled mess. Fu Jingyao dared to say them, but she dared not listen. She had already dug a castle out of her toes.
Her voice softened involuntarily, "Try to be normal, speak properly."
Fu Jingyao immediately shut up, maintaining the same position with his arms around her waist, showing through his actions that he wouldn't let her leave.
Lin Xi tried to pull the hand around her waist but couldn't get it off; she hadn't expected him to be so strong.
She gathered spiritual energy in her palm and was about to pry it open with brute force when a thick purple aura covered Fu Jingyao's arm, dispersing all the spiritual energy.
A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Xi's eyes, and the purple aura automatically protected its master.
Holy crap! You can do that?!
We can't win this fight, and we can't escape.
"Fu Jingyao, let go!"
"I won't let go."
"I really won't let go."
"Never let go."
Lin Xi laughed in exasperation, "If you dislike me, then I'll just move out."
Fu Jingyao paused for three seconds, then repeatedly denied it, "I didn't, I never have. Even if I despise myself, I would never despise you."
The man spoke with utmost sincerity, so Lin Xi decided to ask him clearly, "What kind of bath requires three times?"
Fu Jingyao's mind exploded, as if he understood why she was angry; it wasn't because of the kiss.
Xi Xi mistakenly thought that his kiss followed by a shower meant he disliked her, but actually he had wicked thoughts...
This is a reason I can't say out loud, because saying it would scare people away.
Fu Jingyao's eyes darted around, and he stammered, "I... um... it's too hot."
"Yes, the air conditioning in that room is malfunctioning. I was sweating a lot and felt uncomfortable..."
The man's voice trailed off, and Lin Xi turned around to look at him suspiciously. "You're lying. Tell me honestly what kind of bath requires three times."
Fu Jingyao felt like dying.
How did Xixi know how many times he took a shower that night, and what tricks Butler Liu had played that resulted in his monthly bonus being deducted less?
This is inexplicable. I can't not say it, but saying it won't work either. What should I do in this situation?
In a moment of desperation, a phrase I read online flashed through my mind: "Men who know how to be charming have the best lives."
Fu Jingyao moved closer and whispered in her ear, "I'm afraid I'm too dirty and you'll dislike me."
"Honey, please don't dislike me. From now on, I'll wash myself clean every day, and I won't go to bed with you until I'm all clean."
Lin Xi covered her face in embarrassment. Here comes another cheesy line: what did Fu Jingyao experience in just one day?
She cleared her throat. "Okay, I know it's a misunderstanding. Let go of me, I need to take a shower."
The man still wouldn't let go, saying, "Wife, I'm not moving."
Lin Xi sighed helplessly, "I didn't say I was moving."
Fu Jingyao's eyes lit up instantly, his dark eyes sparkling, and he turned the person in his arms over so that they were facing him.
He asked again, "Honey, really?"
The two locked eyes, and Lin Xi completely lost her temper, letting him do as he pleased.
"Really, really, if you don't let go, I'll take a spaceship back to the Taoist temple tonight."
Fu Jingyao immediately withdrew his hand and stood up straight. "Wife, I'll listen to you."
Lin Xi's heart was burning, and the word "wife" kept popping into her head. It was so embarrassing.
She pinched her fingertips. "Switch back to the original way of addressing me."
"Okay, Xixi." A smile appeared in Fu Jingyao's eyes.
Lin Xi gave a few perfunctory replies, then rushed into the bathroom, her heart pounding as she closed the door.
Recalling everything that had just happened, I screamed inwardly, my face instantly turning bright red, unsure whether it was from embarrassment or shame.
Fu Jingyao calmed down, feeling so embarrassed he wanted to disappear. He didn't even dare to think about the nonsense he had just said.
However, this time I managed to fool them; the online teachings made some sense.
He opened the door and went into the next room to quickly retrieve Lin Xi's pillow.
A black and a pink pillow were placed together. Fu Jingyao's lips curled slightly. His wife was back.
Lin Xi pushed open the door and came out. The man was standing by the bed, staring intently at something. She slowly walked over and asked, puzzled, "What's so interesting about the pillow?"
The delicate fragrance lingered around his nose, and the soft touch from last night floated into his mind. Fu Jingyao felt uneasy all over, unsure where to look.
He solemnly explained, "I'm going to take a shower too, not because I'm disgusted, just a normal shower."
Lin Xi waved her hand, "Go ahead, the matter of taking three baths is over."
Fu Jingyao breathed a sigh of relief. This was for the best. If Xixi remembered something was wrong later, he wouldn't be able to come up with a reason.
He strode into the bathroom to calm himself down and suppress his desires. He had finally managed to coax his wife back, and he couldn't do anything strange during this time.
After Fu Jingyao finished washing up carefully, the person on the bed had closed their eyes when he came out.
He tiptoed into bed, pulled the covers over himself, looked at the person beside him, and whispered, "Xixi, my wife, my forever wife."
Lin Xi's eyelashes trembled slightly, but she pretended not to hear.
Oh my god! Fu Jingyao is actually like this in private.
