A couple of weeks passed by quickly, but Liang was still in the hospital. His wounds were healing well and he was off painkillers, except for Jinjing.
Well, since she returned to his life, he was so high that his senses were all numb. He could only see bubbles and hearts around.
Jinjing recovered by the end of the first day and she was forced to eat under Liang's watchful gaze. When she finished all the dishes he ordered for her, only then did he relax.
Liang's right hand and left foot were still in a cast. The dressing on his forehead was replaced by a small Band-Aid. The wounds and scratches he incurred on his face were also healing well.
Even though plenty of nurses were available, Jinjing insisted on taking care of him most of the time. She would require assistance, but chores like feeding and cleaning him, she would not let anyone else do it. Liang would particular look forward to sponge time.
Mother Sheng was relieved to see, not only her son's health recover, but also his love life. It was not long before Liang would be discharged. So, his parents went back home and would visit him every day.
As for Meili and Buzz, they got busy with their wedding preparations and also inspecting the interiors of their matrimonial house. Yet they would drop in to check on Liang every day, without fail.
Jinjing was practically living in the hospital. Mr. president made it sure that her bed was still placed alongside his. Now with the pain under control, Liang was able to move a little and even sleep on his sides.
The entire night he would stubbornly hold on to Jinjing tightly and only then fall asleep. Initially, Jinjing found it a little childish, but she soon gave in to his wishes. She was well aware that, having spent five years away, Liang did not want to stay away for even a minute.
One night, Jinjing was unable to sleep. She turned onto her side. Angling her elbow, she rested her head on her palm and observed Liang's peaceful face, who was fast asleep. Seeing the content smile on his face, she assumed, he had probably drifted into dreamland.
"God knows what is he dreaming about…. For him to smile so sweetly." Jinjing spoke softly to herself, while tracing a finger on his sharp features.
"how can someone be so handsome….?" She said, looking at his pointed nose, sharp jawline and those irresistible lips.
Giving into her sudden desire, Jinjing kissed his lips. It was not deep, but she lingered there for a minute before she decided to retreat. But she was taken by surprise, when Liang pulled her in for a mind boggling kiss.
Making optimum use of his non-injured hand, he held tightly on to the back of her head, while his right leg flung over her body to pull her closer into him.
It had almost been a month since they got back together. Other than the occasional pecking, they had not indulged in anything this extravagant, thanks to his injuries. Well even though Liang said he was perfectly fine and could do more than just kissing, Jinjing firmly rejected all his advances till he got well.
But now, the passion suppressed for five years, resurfaced. The fire deep within, reignited.
Liang did not hold back at all. The way he was ravishing her lips like a hungry animal, it felt as if he would make up for at least a years' worth of kissing at once. He carefully explored her sweet mouth, not leaving a single nook or cranny.
The initially hesitant Jinjing, lost herself to the electrifying kiss. Soon she felt as if she would pass out again. She started hitting lightly on his chest, gesturing him to let her off.
Reluctantly breaking off, Liang kept pecking on her now swollen lips, not willing to move away.
She pushed away, making some space between them.
Still panting, she said, "what??? Are you planning to make up for five years in one go????" with her mind still hazed, she closed her eyes to catch her breath. But the next moment, her eyes jolted wide open when she heard him say, "five year???? This did not recompense for even five minutes... brace yourself WIFEY!!!!"
