With the help of the warm yellow light at the head of the bed, Xue Chenkong propped his wet head up with one hand and looked at the sleeping face of the woman beside him. His uneasy mood finally calmed down as he mused, "How can Ah Ting Bao be so cute? I just can't get enough of her face. We're destined to be together! "
Xue Chenkong could not help but lean over and kiss her on the forehead. He was her devout follower.
"Ah Ting, I'm going to kiss you. " As he spoke, Xue Chenkong kissed her all the way down from her forehead, the kisses gradually getting more intense. His breathing was rapid, and his strong arms wrapped around her waist as he kissed her whole body.
Shen Manting was annoyed by his actions and frowned impatiently while stirring. "Hmm ..."
Jolted back to his senses, Xue Chenkong, expression changed, hurriedly lifted the blanket and left.
On the balcony, Xue Chenkong lit up a cigarette. There was no expression on his handsome face, but the hand holding the cigarette could not stop shaking. It was his manic episode.
He had a secret that did not come with his birth; it came about later. When he lost control of his emotions, his left hand would shake uncontrollably, and he would be so irascible that he would want to kill someone and destroy the world.
He had just wanted to madly possess Shen Manting and mark her inside and out. However, at that moment, he couldn't help but think of those filthy and ridiculous scenes in the past.
Xue Chenkong's breathing quickened as he tried his best to control his trembling hands.
The next morning, Shen Manting woke up with a start. Her sudden uneasiness made her unable to fall back asleep. She sat up abruptly and lifted the blanket, only to see the blue and purple hickeys on her arm.
Just as she was about to open her mouth, Shen Manting pulled on the wound on her mouth. She gritted her teeth in pain and subconsciously touched her mouth, thinking, "It must be his doing! " However, the man was no longer by her side.
Shen Manting was about to get up and look for the culprit when the bedroom door suddenly opened.
A tall and well-built man appeared. It was Xue Chenkong, who had changed into casual home clothes. A pair of gold-rimmed glasses sat on his tall nose bridge, and he was holding a bowl of pasta in his hand.
Seeing that she had woken up, Xue Chenkong smiled gently. "Ah Ting, you're awake? "
Shen Manting blinked, her eyes adorably dazed.
"Try the pasta I made, " Xue Chenkong called out.
Shen Manting didn't move. She stared at him with her beautiful eyes, not understanding why he had the nerve to smile. She was waiting for an explanation.
However, Xue Chenkong didn't mention about the hickeys on Shen Manting's body. "Ah Ting, let me feed you some pasta. Don't go to the hospital today. I'll help you take a leave of absence, okay? "
"No. I still have a surgery to do, " Shen Manting immediately refused.
Upon hearing that, Xue chenkong frowned slightly. "It isn't urgent, is it? You don't even want to take a marriage? "
"I'm really sorry... " Shen Manting felt a little guilty when she heard that, but she quickly made up her mind again. In her dream, she was just like what everyone had hoped for, a little princess who didn't have to worry about food and clothing. She was pampered and had a huge amount of wealth. She thought that she would just return to dust that way, too.
However, the truth was not like that, because the entire Shen family would be completely destroyed soon! If she was still like in her dream, she wouldn't even be able to protect herself, let alone save the Shen family. Therefore, she would never give up her career. If the destruction of the Shen family was an inevitable disaster, at least she could depend on her medical contributions to save her parents and family.
Xue Chenkong looked at her with his brows tightly furrowed, as if he could not understand her words at all.
On the second day of their marriage, the newlyweds gave each other silent treatment. In the end, it was Xue Chenkong who gave in. "I'll send you to the hospital later."
At the hospital, Xue Chenkong looked at Shen Manting as he said, "Ah Ting... " He wanted to say something, but he stopped.
"What's wrong? " Shen Manting looked at him in confusion.
Xue Chenkong's pale lips moved, but he didn't say anything in the end. "No matter what it is, if something happens, just give me a call. I'll immediately rush over. "
"All right," Shen Manting replied, having thought that he was going to talk about their honeymoon. She heaved a sigh of relief and turned to get out of the car.
Xue Chenkong tightened his grip on the steering wheel as he watched Shen Manting walk into the hospital. "Ah Ting still doesn't love me! " A strong sense of uneasiness swept through his heart. At the same time, a voice kept ringing in his mind, "Capture her and have her stay by your side. It doesn't matter even if you imprison her. From the start, she was your... "
