Seeing that she was silent, Xue Chenkong laughed even more happily, lowered his head, and kissed her head. In a gentle voice, he drawled, "I've finally married Ah Ting. Ah Ting is mine and mine alone. "
His domineering declaration made Shen Manting subconsciously curl her shoulders. Her fingers clutched his arm tightly, and her long eyelashes drooped to hide the uneasiness in her eyes. She knew that all of Xue Chenkong's gentleness was a deliberate facade. She saw his original appearance in her dream and also saw what would happen in the future. She had seen his ruthlessness and bloodthirstiness clearly.
Shen Manting became even more nervous when she saw herself being carried into the elevator. "I... I suddenly remembered that I forgot to bring my clothes. I'll go back first—" she said.
"I've prepared them! " Xue Chenkong interrupted her.
As long as it was something Shen Manting needed, he would personally prepare everything, from a face towel to clothes, bags, cosmetics, and even medical equipment. Even though there were countless servants at home, he would do everything personally when it came to her.
Shen Manting could hear the eagerness in his tone. She gritted her teeth nervously. That night was their wedding night. What was next? What should she do later? It was only at that moment that Shen Manting finally realized what she had to go through on her wedding night.
The mature and stable doctor, Shen Manting's scalpel would never shake even when she performed surgeries at a high frequency. But currently, she was so nervous that her palms were sweating.
The door of the master bedroom, which was half the size of a football field, was slowly opened. The decorations were particularly gorgeous. A white antique carpet was laid out, and in the middle of the room was a huge white bed with gold edges. Above her head was a pink rose curtain, and a soft wind chime ring made a melodious sound alongside the wind.
Xue Chenkong had designed all of those according to her preferences. However, Shen Manting's heart grew colder as she looked at all of that. All the strength in her body seemed to have been drained, and she couldn't help but tremble. The bed would set her imprisonment in stone, and the oil painting on the wall near the bed would soon be replaced with their wedding photos.
"Let's take a bath together. " Suddenly, Xue Chenkong's voice rang in her ear.
Abruptly coming back to her senses, Shen Manting pushed him away with a red face and jumped out of his grasp. "I want to wash myself! " She picked up a set of pajamas and fled.
Looking at her back as she ran away out of shyness, Xue Chenkong couldn't help but smile, his eyes full of gentleness. "Ah Ting, we're already married. "
After making sure that she had locked the bathroom door, Shen Manting soaked in the warm water, her mind still in a mess. She was really married! In the end, she still married him! Just as she was deep in thought, the man's worried voice came from outside the bathroom door. "Ah Ting, are you done? "
"I-I'll come out immediately. " Shen Manting made sure that she was dressed before she walked out of the room slowly.
Xue Chenkong looked at the neatly dressed her who walked out. He couldn't help but sigh. "Ah Ting, I'll help you wash next time. "
"I'm not a fool. I can do it myself. " On such an ambiguous night, coupled with such ambiguous words, Shen Manting was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into. She glared at him and said, "Go and take a bath. " However, Shen Manting regretted her words as soon as she finished speaking. Why did it sound as if she was urging him so they could quickly move on to what awaited next?
As expected, Xue Chenkong's gaze became even more ambiguous. He bent down and kissed her on the lips. "I'll go immediately. "
Shen Manting covered her mouth, her eyes widened like copper bells. Looking at the man who was smiling triumphantly wordlessly, she felt her lips burn as if they had been set ablaze.
After Xue Chenkong entered the bathroom, Shen Manting quickly lifted the blanket and got into bed, shutting her eyes. She could hear the sound of running water in the bathroom. Shen Manting clutched the bed sheet under her nervously. She had thought it would be a sleepless night, but she was really too tired. In no time, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
A few minutes later, the bathroom door was opened. The man was only wrapped in a bath towel, and the water droplets on his body slid across his abs seductively. However, no matter how good the view was, there was no one to admire it.
Xue Chenkong walked to the side of the bed and looked at the girl who was sleeping deeply. He smiled lovingly, lifted the blanket, and lay down. "Ah Ting is sleeping so soundly. What am I as a husband supposed to do now... "
