Flash Marriage, Deep Love-Chapter 49: Truly and Sincerely, I Like You
Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Truly and Sincerely, I Like You
Upon hearing this, Ma Huilian’s movement froze. Her expression darkened slightly, then she turned her face, smiled, and handed the clothes in her hand to Mi Jing. She then said, "I’ll be heading down now. Zixian is still waiting for me to make tea for him, so I won’t disturb you."
After Ma Huilian left, Mi Jing did not relax. On the contrary, she felt a bit uneasy, worried that taking the clothes from Ma Huilian without consulting Shen Lingxing might upset him.
"Actually, I..."
"No need to explain, I understand." Mi Jing tried to explain but was interrupted by Shen Lingxing.
He understands?
Mi Jing was slightly surprised and asked, "Then how do we handle these clothes?"
During dinner, Mi Jing noticed the good relationship between Ma Huilian and Shen Zixian. She thought that if Ma Huilian complained to Zixian about feeling mistreated at their place, they could end up being "the bad guys."
Therefore, Mi Jing accepted the clothes with the mindset of avoiding unnecessary trouble, not because she genuinely liked the clothes Ma Huilian had given her. freeweɓnøvel.com
"Give them to me."
With those words, Shen Lingxing walked up to Mi Jing, took the clothes from her, and once again went into the dressing room.
Having nothing to do, Mi Jing leisurely walked to the bookshelf. Her gaze swept across numerous medical books, finding nothing particularly intriguing. Just as she was about to walk away, her eyes were attracted to a photo frame placed in the corner of the bookshelf.
The photo frame was wooden and looked quite ordinary. What truly captivated Mi Jing was the photograph inside the frame.
The photo depicted three people: a cute little girl, a handsome little boy, and a beautiful woman. The woman held the little girl in one hand and led the little boy with the other. A genuine and elegant smile adorned her delicate face, and happiness radiated from between her brows. It was clear that she was joyful and beautiful when this photo was taken.
Having her children by her side must have been a very blissful experience for this mother, right?
Infected by the woman’s smile, Mi Jing couldn’t help but smile slightly. No wonder Shen Lingxing and his siblings are so good-looking; they have inherited such great genes!
Bang—
The sound of a door closing startled Mi Jing out of her thoughts. She turned her head back and saw Shen Lingxing holding a set of white clothes as he came out.
"These are the clothes Grandma prepared for you. If you’re tired, take a shower and go to bed early. I’ll be in the study handling some things. If you need anything, come find me in the study." As he spoke, Shen Lingxing handed the clothes to Mi Jing.
"Okay." Mi Jing nodded.
Without saying more, Shen Lingxing turned and walked out of the room.
Once the door closed, Mi Jing walked to the bed and sat down. She casually placed the clothes on the bed, causing the once neatly folded garments to scatter a bit, revealing a corner of the underwear that was tucked between them.
What is this?
Grandma really thought of everything, even preparing underwear.
Thinking about this, Mi Jing felt a bit touched and genuinely appreciated Grandma. Although she could be intimidating when serious, it didn’t affect Mi Jing’s fondness and respect for her.
Carrying the clothes into the bathroom, she took a bath, feeling much more relaxed afterward.
Oh!
How come this underwear fits so perfectly?
Could it be that Grandma has extraordinary intuition, knowing her bust size without asking, or is it just a coincidence that Grandma randomly picked the perfect size for her?
Clearly, both of these possibilities seem unlikely. The most probable answer is that Shen Lingxing knew her bust size and informed Grandma.
Thinking about this, Mi Jing’s hand trembled while fastening her bra!
She had heard that some men could accurately determine a woman’s bust size just by looking at them, usually because they were very familiar with women. Although Shen Lingxing is a doctor and should be well-versed in human anatomy, he couldn’t possibly know her bust size just by hugging her, could he?
Or is this skill something he picked up from his previous romantic experiences?
Ugh, stop overthinking things!
Mi Jing shook her head, quickly finished dressing, and then curled up on the bed to play on her phone.
Shen Lingxing emerged from his shower close to midnight, saw Mi Jing still lying in bed looking at her phone, frowned, and said, "Using your phone for too long is bad for your eyes; it’s time to sleep."
"I can’t sleep in unfamiliar beds. You go ahead and sleep." Mi Jing kept her eyes on her phone screen as she replied, without looking up at Shen Lingxing.
Upon hearing this, Shen Lingxing turned off the lights, then lifted the covers and climbed into bed.
"Is my being awake bothering you?" Lying beside Shen Lingxing, Mi Jing couldn’t help but consider his feelings, so she turned to him and asked.
Shen Lingxing raised his thick eyebrows and asked back, "If I say yes, would you sleep on the couch?"
Uh!
How does he know what she was thinking?
Indeed, Mi Jing had been considering sleeping on the couch. But being directly called out by Shen Lingxing left her feeling both surprised and somewhat embarrassed.
It seems she needs to be more considerate and not stubbornly act on her impulses!
With this thought, Mi Jing turned off her phone and said, "Then I won’t look at it anymore."
The night was very quiet, and the tightly drawn curtains blocked out the moonlight, leaving the room pitch dark, so dark that one couldn’t see their hand in front of their face.
Feeling sleepless, Mi Jing found the darkness unsettling and changed her position from lying flat to lying on her side. Through the darkness, she looked at Shen Lingxing beside her and asked softly, "Can you turn on the bedside lamp?"
Shen Lingxing was also still awake. Hearing Mi Jing’s voice, he immediately sat up, reached out to find the switch for the lamp, and turned it on.
Click—
The bedside lamp lit up, instantly dispelling half of the darkness in the room, and Mi Jing’s sense of security slowly returned.
It’s quite strange, Mi Jing is not afraid of mice, cockroaches, or snakes—things that most girls fear—but she is afraid of the dark.
Since she was a child, Mi Jing had always needed a small nightlight on to fall asleep; otherwise, she would be too scared to sleep.
"Honey, let’s talk." Shen Lingxing lay down, looking at Mi Jing who was bathed in the lamp’s soft light. His black eyes sparkled, with a trace of warmth in his voice.
Mi Jing had gradually gotten used to being called "wife" ever since they got their marriage certificate. Since she couldn’t sleep anyway, and the quiet night and soft light had lowered her guard, she instinctively agreed, "Sure! What do you want to talk about?"
"Was your friend telling the truth? Do you think I’m pretty good too?" Shen Lingxing didn’t like holding back his words, so he asked directly.
Upon hearing this, Mi Jing was momentarily stunned, then she recalled what Li Bao’er had said.
"Yes." Mi Jing was silent for two seconds before gently nodding.
Immediately, Shen Lingxing’s lips curved into a smile, and he felt a sense of delight in his heart.
"Do you like me?" Shen Lingxing seized the moment to continue asking.
