Chapter 100 Yes, I've fallen for him.
Shen Yichen stared at the check on the bedside table, his forehead veins throbbing. After a moment, a self-deprecating glint flashed in his eyes.
It turns out that her so-called fulfilling his requests wasn't out of pity or gratitude, but simply because she didn't want to owe him anything or have any connection with him.
Shen Yichen took a deep breath before turning to Qin Shuzhi, his eyes reddening. "Do I lack a few coins? If I want someone to take care of me, can't I afford a caregiver?"
Is this what he needs?
Qin Shuzhi said coldly, "Whether you need money or not, whether you need people or not, that's your business. I'll just do what I should do."
Shen Yichen looked at her, his throat feeling constricted, and after a long while, he finally managed to speak with difficulty, "You really want to sever all ties with me, not wanting to have even the slightest connection with me?"
"Yes." Qin Shuzhi's eyes were cold and firm.
"In fact, if I had a choice, I would rather be the one who gets hit than be saved by you."
Her words were like a sharp sword, piercing Shen Yichen's heart. In that instant, he felt as ridiculous as a clown.
What he did was of no interest to anyone.
"It's getting late, I won't disturb your rest any longer. I wish you a speedy recovery."
After Qin Shuzhi finished speaking, he turned and left.
Watching her figure almost reach the door, Shen Yichen asked in a hoarse voice, unwilling to give up, "You really like him?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Shuzhi's heart skipped a beat, and he abruptly stopped in his tracks.
like.
She repeated those two words to herself.
Does she enjoy traveling?
She really hadn't seriously thought about this issue.
Shi Yuanxing's thoughtfulness and gentleness are not like a fierce wave. His kindness is more like a resilient yet soft and comfortable vine that can silently and tangibly protect a person's heart, making them feel warm, safe, and secure.
As Qin Shuzhi gets to know him better over time, she can't help but be attracted by his outstanding ability to handle situations and his personal charm.
Even the occasional childlike innocence he displayed stirred something within her.
Yes, this is not an endorsement of a husband, but rather a heartfelt liking for a man.
It is a kind of liking that is more precious and intense than the joy of first sight.
Qin Shuzhi turned to look at Shen Yichen, her eyes shining with a clarity and certainty that seemed to have broken through the fog:
"Yes, I've fallen for him."
*
It was a little after 5 a.m.
When Shi Yuanxing got home, the first thing he did was tiptoe into the bedroom.
A warm yellow wall lamp illuminated the bedroom, blending with the white light streaming in from the window and adding a warm glow to the room.
Shi Yuanxing's gaze fell on the bed.
The person on the bed was lying on her side, sleeping peacefully with her eyes closed. Two high pillows were placed under her head, and her hand, which was on the blanket, was loosely holding her phone.
He looked like he was waiting for someone, and then he fell asleep without realizing it.
Shi Yuanxing felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He quietly walked to the bedside, squatted down, gently took the phone from her hand, and then put her hand back under the covers before looking up at her sleeping face.
The woman's beautiful face had fair and delicate skin, long curled eyelashes that covered her eyelids, and her lips looked soft and pale pink.
Her breathing was soft and gentle.
Looking at his wife sleeping soundly and peacefully, Shi Yuanxing felt all his physical and mental fatigue disappear. He felt that every breath he took was full of sweet vitality.
He couldn't help but move closer, so close that he could smell her familiar, sweet, and warm scent.
He gently kissed her lips.
It smells good and is soft.
The longing that had been building up over the past few days was ignited at this moment, and he couldn't help but kiss her again.
Qin Shuzhi was in a daze when the familiar kiss made it hard for her to breathe. She opened her eyes groggily and saw a face magnified so much that she couldn't see its full features.
The person she loves has returned.
Qin Shuzhi's eyes lit up. She cupped his face in her hands, pulled him away from her, and gazed at his features. "You're back?"
Whether it was because she had just woken up or because she had been kissed, her voice was sweet and soft.
Shi Yuanxing's heart softened at her words. He took the hand that was cupping his face in hers, pulled it close, and kissed her palm. "Mmm. Didn't I tell you not to wait for me? How did you fall asleep like this?"
Having made up her mind, Qin Shuzhi looked into those dark, gentle eyes again, and her heart pounded like a drum, her face flushing.
"That's right, that's why I wanted to wait for you," she whispered.
"But I don't know how I fell asleep."
Seeing her furrow her brows in slight annoyance, Shi Yuanxing's eyes filled with warmth.
He pulled away the blanket that was in their way, pressed his body intimately against hers, greedily basking in her warmth, and gazed at her with a smile, "It seems Mrs. Shi misses me quite a bit."
Qin Shuzhi blushed, reached out and hugged his neck, replying to his words, "Yeah, I missed you."
Unexpectedly, she responded in this way. Shi Yuanxing froze, and when he met her bright, sparkling eyes, his breathing became erratic. The next second, he lost control and lowered his head to kiss her lips.
He kissed her until her face was flushed and her eyes were hazy, then he released her breathlessly, squeezing her slender waist tightly, and said in a hoarse voice:
"You're trying to seduce me like this, aren't you afraid I'll make you cry right now, huh?"
Qin Shuzhi's breathing was erratic. She blinked her watery eyes at him, not afraid of him at all. She simply reached out and stroked his face, looking at the obvious fatigue in his eyes, and asked with heartache, "Are you tired? Lie down and get some sleep."
The man who was making those harsh words paused for a moment, then heard her say gently, "I'll sleep with you."
Shi Yuanxing's heart fluttered as he met the woman's tender and caring gaze, and a wave of tenderness washed over him.
"Okay, I'm going to take a shower first."
As soon as he finished speaking, he remembered something, but his waist was encircled by a pair of slender, soft arms.
"No need, just sleep like this."
Taking a shower might make someone feel more refreshed, but it doesn't necessarily mean they'll be able to fall asleep.
Before Shi Yuanxing could react, the woman took the initiative to move over, making room for him before pulling him to lie down and then snuggling into his arms.
"..."
Shi Yuanxing was bewildered by his wife's unusually clingy behavior.
After being away for a few days, why did his wife seem... a little different?
He looked down at her curiously, but as soon as he lowered his head, the woman raised her head and gave him a quick, random kiss on the cheek. "Go to sleep."
As she spoke, she held his hand and gently patted his back twice.
Shi Yuanxing: ?
Is she trying to put him to sleep?
Shi Yuanxing's business trip was originally planned to be a ten-day trip compressed into a week. He had been working at a high intensity for the past few days, and because he returned early, he was making the most of every minute to finish up his work on the plane. He was indeed quite tired.
Moreover, he was lying in his own bed at the moment, holding his sweet and soft wife in his arms. He felt content and relaxed, and his eyelids couldn't help but droop.
Before long, he fell asleep.
Only when she heard the man's steady breathing did Qin Shuzhi secretly look up at him.
Soft light bathed his well-defined face, his thick, dark eyebrows were smooth, and his thin lips were slightly curved, as if he were sleeping peacefully.
Even when he's asleep, he's still so handsome.
Qin Shuzhi sighed and couldn't help but extend a finger to quietly touch his high nose bridge, wanting to touch it, but afraid of waking him up.
After hesitating for a moment, she finally suppressed her lust and withdrew her hand.
Then she gently rested her head in the man's arms, closed her eyes contentedly, and slept with him.
