Chapter 6: Excessive
Ji Yanxing glanced at the book in her hand and saw that the cover was a French novel. He naturally knew that his wife Ji had studied abroad.
It's just past ten o'clock now, and it's a bit early to go to bed. Yu Nian is used to reading before going to bed, especially boring ones, to help him sleep.
Ji Yanxing looked up. Yu Nian was wearing a light blue nightgown. She revealed just the right amount of skin. Her collarbone was delicate and thin, and her exposed neck was long and white. The light blue color made her skin look as white as jade.
When she takes off her professional suit during the day, she actually looks very gentle. Under the warm yellow light, she has a soft and charming beauty, which forms an extreme contrast with her cold appearance during the day.
Ji Yanxing's Adam's apple rolled, and he casually unbuttoned his cuffs, his finger joints clearly defined, and walked towards the bed.
Yu Nian's heart trembled, and her fingers tightened around the book, rubbing against the paper with her fingertips, making a very slight sound. Her body's reaction said it all, and she had to admit that she was a little nervous.
The bed in the master bedroom was very big, so it wouldn't be crowded even if two more people slept in it. Yu Nian chose a seat near the balcony, leaving the seat near the door empty for him. However, he was heading towards the side where she slept.
In the few seconds when he walked over, many thoughts flashed through Yu Nian's mind -
Will they kiss and make love in the most unfamiliar yet intimate identities?
Will his eyes remain calm even when the passion is at its most intense? Or will they be stained by desire and become confused and infatuated?
Does it mean that for him, as long as she is his wife, no matter who she is, he can do all kinds of intimate things with her?
Yu Nian watched him walk to the bed. No matter how hard she tried to control herself, her heart still couldn't help but pound.
She bit her lower lip and tried to speak in a calm voice: "Don't you want to take a shower first?"
Hearing this, Ji Yanxing raised his eyebrows imperceptibly and stared at her for a few seconds, "You are very nervous."
Yu Nian clenched his fingers and asked, "Is there?"
Ji Yanxing lowered his eyes to look at her and said with a click of the tongue: "Your eyelashes are trembling all the time."
The light scent of agarwood mixed with the smell of alcohol in the air hit her face, and the cold wood fragrance and tobacco smell blended together, enveloping her from all directions. Yu Nian took a deep breath and said in a calm voice: "Ji Yanxing, go take a shower first."
"I must take a shower, but I have to first--" Ji Yanxing suddenly leaned over, and Yu Nian closed her eyes reflexively. His arm brushed against her soft black hair. A cold and bitter smell rushed into her nostrils. He must be very close to her. His warm breath sprayed on her cheek, and the burned skin turned red.
Ji Yanxing stared at her from a close distance. Her snow-white skin was stained with a layer of red as if she had been painted with rouge, and the exposed skin was visibly red.
The fingers placed on the chest were clenched tightly, the fingertips turned white, and the butterfly-wing eyelashes kept trembling.
Ji Yanxing's eyes moved slightly.
It seems that his Mrs. Ji is really nervous.
She was far from being as calm and composed as she appeared.
After about five or six seconds, Yu Nian felt that the breath had become much weaker. She immediately opened her eyes and saw Ji Yanxing holding the charger in his hand. She looked at him blankly.
Ji Yanxing looked at her and finished the rest of his sentence: "I need to charge my phone first. It's running out of battery."
“…”
She unplugged his charger and threw it on the bed. She planned to clean it up later, but before she could, he went home.
Yu Nian felt angry as if he was being teased: "You..."
Ji Yanxing took the charger and walked to the bedside table on the side where he slept. He bent down and plugged in the charger, and said nonchalantly, "Mrs. Ji, we are going to do that sooner or later. You should be mentally prepared."
Of course she understands.
But she didn't expect it to happen so soon.
Yu Nian was choked and didn't think of how to answer for a moment.
Ji Yanxing stood up, his eyes as dark as ink, staring at her, and pointed out sharply: "Your reaction tonight was a bit extreme."
-
That night, the two of them slept in the same bed, but did nothing.
Yu Nian breathed a sigh of relief, not knowing whether he was not used to this bed or to having someone sleeping next to him. He gradually fell into a deep sleep only after Ji Yanxing fell asleep.
The next day, Yu Nian was awakened by the alarm clock. After waking up, he subconsciously looked to his side, and the bed was empty.
She sat on the bed for a while, waited for a moment, turned off the alarm clock, and then got out of bed to wash up.
Ji Yanxing was not seen in the living room. He must have gone to work. Yu Nian was just about to go to the kitchen to find something to eat when he saw a middle-aged woman coming out with a tray of food.
"You are the wife, right?" The middle-aged woman smiled amiably, "You can just call me Aunt Liu. This is the breakfast that the husband ordered."
Yu Nian looked at the sandwich on the plate and said gently, "Hello, Aunt Liu."
"I'm only here during the day. Something happened at home last night, so I wasn't here," Aunt Liu put the plate on the dining table. "Madam, you can tell me if you need anything."
Yu Nian: "Okay."
There were sandwiches on the plate, and on the table there were fried dough sticks, steamed buns, eggs and milk. Aunt Liu smiled and explained, "My husband said he didn't know what you liked, so he asked me to buy them all."
After work, Yu Nian lives alone and becomes more casual in his lifestyle. He doesn’t eat breakfast most of the time. Even if he eats breakfast occasionally, he just orders a hamburger or sandwich at the fast food restaurant downstairs from the law firm’s office building.
Looking at the rich variety of breakfast on the table, Yu Nian's lips curled up. No matter what, he was still good to her. Apart from deliberately teasing her last night, he was very considerate to her as his newlywed wife.
Ms. He said that the relationship between husband and wife needs to be cultivated.
Since she is not the type he would fall in love with at first sight, just cultivate feelings slowly. Mom and Dad were also a couple in a marriage without any feelings at the beginning, but now they love each other very much.
She and Ji Yanxing...
Probably the same as mom and dad.
Yu Nian was in a good mood, her eyes curved into crescents, "I'll eat xiaolongbao."
Aunt Liu said "eh" and handed her the steamed bun.
"Aunt Liu, when did he leave?" Yu Nian took a bite of the steamed bun. The bun was juicy and tender, and tasted very good.
Aunt Liu: "He just left not long ago. My husband usually leaves home at 8:30. I don't know why he left half an hour earlier today."
Yu Nian paused.
She usually leaves home around 8:30, why did he deliberately get up early today?
Don't you want to meet her?
As soon as this thought came to mind, Yu Nian denied it himself.
It shouldn't be the case.
She wasn't important enough for him to get up half an hour earlier just to avoid her.
It's probably about work.
"Aunt Liu, how long have you been taking care of him?" Yu Nian asked while eating.
Aunt Liu said truthfully: "It's been many years. I used to work in the old house. It was the old lady who asked me to come here to take care of my husband."
"Old lady?" Yu Nian asked, "Is she Ji Yanxing's grandmother?"
"right."
