Xiang Ciyuan was furious. He could tell that Xiang Nanzhi hadn't been in a good mood lately, and he had privately discussed with his older brother how to cheer her up. Today, he couldn't help but come to find him.
“Take good care of my sister. If she loses even a pound of flesh, I’ll cut off a pound of your flesh.”
After uttering those harsh words, Xiang Ciyuan left.
Xiang Nanzhi's cheek was pressed against the man's firm chest. She wanted to laugh but couldn't. It was her second brother who knew what she wanted.
Shen Shixun didn't know what was wrong with her. He put her on the bed, took off her clothes, and changed her into the pajamas he had bought for her.
He did all of this smoothly, without the slightest hesitation or delay, allowing people to lie comfortably in bed.
The person sat on the edge of the bed, seemingly lost in thought.
Xiang Nanzhi glanced at him and could tell that the man had a heavy heart. His profile was full of worries. Had something happened to him again?
Serves him right. She always suspects that there's something going on between her and Song Ze. She's clearly said there's nothing between them, but he just won't believe her.
Xiang Nan felt wronged, and as she thought about it, she felt like crying.
Second brother is right. She is very attentive and careful in everything she does, trying to make him happy. Why can't he see that? As soon as Song Ze appears and turns around on her, this man suddenly loses his composure.
Feeling her tears falling, Xiang Nanzhi reached out to wipe them away, but the man suddenly reached out and wiped them away for her, gently kissing her lips.
Xiang Nanzhi didn't move, and the man's kiss became even gentler. He didn't say a word, but his love was extremely tender.
After a while, the man stopped touching her and lay down beside her, holding her in his arms.
Xiang Nanzhi has been thinking lately that she loves this man so much, but she can't feel any response from him. Could it be that he doesn't care about her at all and doesn't love her?
But today, at this moment, she felt under this man's gentle treatment that he seemed to really, really love her. Sometimes, loving someone makes you completely unreserved, showing your vulnerable side to them.
I sensed his vulnerability, but I didn't know why he was so vulnerable.
The two slept very well that night, until dawn. The next day, after the man got up, Xiang Nanzhi finally had the leisure to get out of bed and carefully examine the place.
This is the very center of the ancient city. Standing here, you can take in all the most prosperous buildings in the ancient city. The buildings are very tall and the decorations are excellent.
At least the style here meets Xiang Nanzhi's requirements.
Apart from the small flaws, everything else is fine.
The man pushed open the door. Xiang Nanzhi was used to pretending to be asleep, and subconsciously wanted to lie down and close her eyes, but the man had already come in, and she didn't have time.
After arguing for a few days, the two of them felt a little awkward when they met again.
It was rare to see him make breakfast so elaborately. From the place to the breakfast he prepared today, she could feel that this man was doing his best to cater to her preferences.
"You eat, I'm going to work."
Don't you want to talk to me?
"You want to talk?"
"I think."
The man then sat down opposite her and put down his cutlery. "I've been thinking, is it because I didn't go back with you to attend Gila's wedding that you're unhappy?"
Shen Shixun remained silent, while Xiang Nanzhi spoke calmly, "Regarding Song Ze..."
"I know."
He heard it all; he heard what Xiang Nanzhi said to Song Ze on the phone.
"and you……"
“During this time, I forgot my identity and my promise to you. I have overstepped my bounds.”
Xiang Nanzhi was taken aback. Why did he suddenly bring this up?
"Shen Shixun, I don't think you..."
“I will take good care of you and the child, and I will not interfere with your private life in the future. Xiang Nanzhi, you don’t have to consider my feelings when you do anything in the future.”
He was not good enough for her. She was a princess, and he was a poor boy. She loved the high-end lifestyle of upscale restaurants, while he only liked to nibble on a couple of bites of raw beef and eat a bite of tsampa.
He loved sunbathing, and men and women on the grasslands loved sunbathing all the time. But she always had to wear sunscreen when she went out. He had no idea on the grasslands what could be applied to the face for sun protection.
She wanted to sleep in an elegant and luxurious place, but how could a tent on the grassland be associated with elegance and luxury?
He even preferred to sleep on the ground, lying with the mastiff, deeply feeling the changes of the four seasons.
For Xiang Nanzhi, this kind of life was torture.
Xiang Nan knew she wouldn't go back to the grasslands with him; she couldn't even get used to it in a short time, let alone for a lifetime.
"These past few days I've just been wondering if I've been too good to you."
"You're being too good to me. Don't be so good to me."
Shen Shixun took off the wolf fang from his neck. He had always worn it, like a shackle deep in his heart. Now that it was taken off, it seemed that he was also giving up something.
"Xiang Nanzhi, our child is our only bond, and I will be responsible for our child for the rest of my life."
The wolf fang was placed on the table with a soft sound.
For a moment, Xiang Nanzhi's vision went black and his mind went blank.
"Shen Shixun!"
The man reached the door, and she suddenly called out to him, "What do you mean?"
Without turning his head, he asked Nan Zhi again, "Is it because of what happened last time? Didn't I already explain? Song Ze and I have nothing..."
"That's your problem, you don't need to explain it to me."
The man took two more steps, and Xiang Nanzhi, disregarding all pride, suddenly hugged him tightly from behind. "Don't go. You said I only knew how to sponge off my parents, but now I'm supporting myself."
“It was raining that day. Song Ze came to find me on his own initiative. I only contacted him to return something, nothing else.”
