Chapter 43 A Little Embarrassed
It seemed as if something invisible was quietly growing around.
Mingzhu looked at Jiang Zhi thoughtfully.
But she has never been too lazy to delve into these details.
She quickly put this insignificant anomaly behind her.
After a while.
Several servants came over with tape measures.
"Miss, let's take this gentleman's measurements."
Jiang Zhi didn't understand and subconsciously looked at Mingzhu.
Mingzhu caught his gaze and looked back at him.
"I made clothes for you."
After saying that, she turned her attention back to the TV program.
Everyone in the Ming family has their clothes custom-made by a specialist.
You need to remeasure your body shape data every once in a while.
Ensure that every batch of clothes delivered fits the body perfectly.
"My clothes are still wearable..."
Jiang Zhi was about to refuse.
He noticed Mingzhu's slightly raised eyebrows when she looked at him again.
He silently swallowed the second half of the sentence.
Mingzhu raised the corners of her mouth in satisfaction.
That's good.
Mingzhu became interested and stopped watching TV.
His eyes fell on Jiang Zhi who stood up.
I didn’t expect that during so many days when we were hungry.
This person could actually grow to a height of nearly 1.9 meters.
After he stood up, even the tall male servant who came to measure his height had to stand on tiptoe, looking embarrassed.
Jiang Zhi instinctively resisted the approach of strangers.
But he also didn't want to go against Mingzhu's wishes.
I had no choice but to reach out and take the tape measure, then gesture softly.
"I can do it myself."
The servant reminded softly.
"Sir, you need to take off all your clothes."
Jiang Zhi's body stiffened slightly.
He subconsciously turned his head to look at Mingzhu again.
But it met her eyes which were filled with a mischievous smile.
Mingzhu tilted her head, obviously waiting to see his reaction.
The air stagnated for a few seconds.
Jiang Zhi didn't say anything, nor was he angry.
Just standing there quietly, expressing rejection with silence.
"Okay," Mingzhu finally chuckled, "Just take off your coat."
Anyway, it almost didn't have much of an impact.
Jiang Zhi then began to move.
He took off the black coat he wore all year round.
Revealing the smooth lines of the arms.
Years of exposure to the sun have caused his skin to have varying shades of color.
But it unexpectedly outlines an exceptionally beautiful muscle texture.
The servant was guiding Jiang Zhi to measure his shoulder width.
Mingzhu suddenly stood up from the sofa and walked over.
She stretched out her fair palm and placed it in front of Jiang Zhi: "Give it to me."
Jiang Zhi lowered his eyes to look at the tape measure in his hand, then looked at the hand she extended.
Then he gently placed the tape measure in her palm.
But Mingzhu's next words made Jiang Zhi's muscles tense instantly.
"Let me measure it for you."
As she spoke, she unfolded the tape measure and moved closer.
Jiang Zhi listened to the servant's instructions and kept his arms open.
Watching Mingzhu approach step by step.
Until there was only a little distance left between the two of them.
When the soft fabric was wrapped around his waist.
A tingling sensation ran up the spine to the back of the neck.
This is too close.
He was so close that he could feel the warmth from Mingzhu's fingertips passing through the thin fabric and spread to his whole body.
So close that he could clearly smell the faint sweet fragrance on her body.
Mingzhu held the other end of the tape measure in her other hand.
She seemed to be embraced by him.
Jiang Zhi lowered his eyes and looked at Mingzhu's round and beautiful head.
The slowly tightening grip around his waist reminded him of the feeling of being suffocated.
The strange thing is.
This feeling of confinement is particularly similar to when the disease broke out.
Now he just felt an unprecedented sense of security.
Mingzhu stared at the numbers on the tape measure and her face fell.
"Brother, your waist is thinner than mine!"
After saying that, she stuffed the tape measure back into Jiang Zhi's hand a little unhappily.
He sat back on the sofa angrily.
Jiang Zhi was pulled out of his thoughts again.
The attention had to be focused on Mingzhu.
He pursed his lips and grasped the tape measure, lightly touching the scale with his fingertips.
Even though he never cared much about other people's thoughts and opinions.
But the tips of my ears still started to feel hot.
The waist is thinner than that of a girl.
This is indeed a bit... embarrassing.
After taking your measurements, it will take some time for the custom-made clothes to arrive.
But the servants moved quickly.
Soon, many sets of temporary replacement clothes were delivered.
From pajamas to casual wear, even the matching shoes, socks and accessories were all taken into consideration for Jiang Zhi.
All kinds of clothing were neatly classified and hung in the dressing room of his room.
Jiang Zhi watched this scene.
The sense of unreality in my heart strangely dissipated a little.
Since Mingzhu is willing to spend so much time on him...
Does it mean.
She wasn't kidding.
She is serious.
She would always want to support him.
I will never abandon him easily in the future.
Mingzhu was lazily curled up on the sofa playing with her cell phone.
The bright light cast a furry halo around her.
Mingzhu noticed his gaze and turned her head: "What are you looking at?"
Jiang Zhi was just sitting there, staring at her.
Mingzhu seemed to suddenly remember something and shook her phone with one hand.
"I forgot to get you a new phone. I'll have someone deliver it to you later."
She still remembered Jiang Zhi's very broken cell phone.
I'm afraid it can't even run small games.
"Thank you." Jiang Zhi suddenly spoke.
The low and hoarse voice made Mingzhu pause as she was about to turn around, and she looked in surprise.
Meet those focused eyes.
She thought Jiang Zhi wouldn't be able to accept it.
I didn't expect that he would position himself so quickly.
Just like that, he calmly accepted the fact that he was being kept.
Suddenly, the sound of a car engine was heard outside the door.
Then came the sound of steady footsteps.
Two figures walked in.
Jiang Zhi still hasn't reacted.
Mingzhu, who was originally lazy, suddenly stood up from the sofa.
He didn't even bother to put on slippers and just ran over barefoot on the carpet.
Jiang Zhi's eyes fell on the pair of forgotten slippers.
"Grandpa! Uncle Zhou! You're back."
Mingzhu's joyful voice rang out.
As soon as Mr. Ming heard the voice, his expression softened.
"Yeah, we're back."
Uncle Zhou stood aside and nodded with a smile.
The three of them walked towards the living room. As they walked, Old Man Ming asked, "Zhuzhu, are you hungry? Have you eaten yet?"
"I haven't eaten yet. I want to wait for grandpa to come back and eat together." Mingzhu shook her head.
As soon as Mr. Ming entered the room, he noticed Jiang Zhi sitting on the sofa.
But he didn't take it to heart.
Until he noticed a direct gaze.
Look along the way.
Jiang Zhi was staring at them without blinking, his dark eyes surprisingly bright.
When their eyes met.
Jiang Zhi had no intention of dodging.
Mr. Ming raised his eyebrows.
How many years has it been since anyone dared to look him in the eye like this?
But in the end, he was the one who looked away first.
Finally came to a conclusion.
This young man is either a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, or he is just stupid.
