There’s basically nothing inside the fridge, apart from bottled water, just a few bottles of children’s milk. Ji Niandong carefully searched and found a jar of honey.
Children’s milk mixed with honey, let’s make do with this to sober him up!
Ji Niandong entered the room with a cup and already heard the sound of running water from the bathroom. She placed the cup on the nearby table and felt a bit uneasy.
Where have her belongings been put? Where is her room?
Ji Niandong hesitantly walked to the wardrobe, opened it to check, and when she opened the door, there was a large walk-in closet inside. At a glance, it was filled with neatly hung shirts and suits, as well as various styles of shoes, all meticulously organized by category.
As Ji Niandong walked inside, she saw various watches and sunglasses displayed in the glass cabinet... The other drawers probably also had things neatly arranged, right?
This is practically no different than a store!
She took a turn inside, and sure enough, she saw her belongings?!
Everything was also neatly arranged, T-shirts folded on one side, dresses hung on another, bags placed on a shelf, shoes orderly arranged by heel height.
Although her belongings weren’t as expensive as Lu Beichen’s, they were all clean and tidy, carrying her unique scent.
As Ji Niandong came out of the walk-in closet, which was almost bigger than her home, she leaned nervously against the wall, becoming even more restless upon hearing the sounds from the bathroom.
Which means, they are going to stay in the same room, sleep in the same bed?
Being married, indeed they should, but what if she hasn’t adjusted to the idea yet?
It wasn’t until the bathroom sounds stopped that Ji Niandong snapped out of it, looked around, and eventually dashed to the living room, lying on the sofa with her head peeking out, looking toward the room along the armrest.
The man was naked from the waist up, his well-defined waistline visible from afar, with full chest muscles and eight-pack abs, a flawless physique. In daily life, dressed in suits, all she knew was his tall and imposing figure, long legs, and broad shoulders like a model. But who could’ve thought he was a model with clothes on to hide his muscular frame?
He only wrapped a towel around his lower body, wiping his wet hair with one hand as he walked out, seemingly looking for her!
Ji Niandong lay on the sofa in a panic, wishing she could become invisible!
Hearing the footsteps coming closer, she finally unclenched her tightly closed fists, breathed deeply, and firmly shut her eyes!
When Lu Beichen came out, he saw her lying flat on the sofa, body stretched straight, eyes tightly shut, long eyelashes trembling like a brush.
Pretending to be asleep?
Lu Beichen saw through her little act at once, reached out to tuck her hair aside, then bent down to carry her sideways into the bedroom.
Ji Niandong felt every hair on her body stand on end; her heartbeat slowing significantly!
Hold it together! She couldn’t help but curl her limbs up, closing her eyes as he put her on the bed!
"I won’t do anything to you!" he said softly, lowered his head for a gentle kiss on her forehead, "Goodnight!"
Turning to notice the cup on the table, he picked it up and walked out.
After drinking, honey relieves headaches, and milk eases stomach pressure. She certainly knows a lot about dietary health.
Lu Beichen downed the milk with honey in one gulp, the taste... wasn’t bad!
Ji Niandong didn’t open her eyes until she heard the footsteps fade away, confirming it, feeling utterly embarrassed! The tense vigilance suddenly eased, and she slumped onto the large bed.
The bed carried a faint scent of laundry detergent, suggesting freshly changed sheets and duvet covers. Ji Niandong hugged the quilt, turning over, feeling indeed a bit tired!
