How could Shen Manting not be angry? However, she knew that he was uneasy, so she patiently said, "If you can feel better like this, then so be it. " Then, the red mark on her wrist was revealed.
Xue Chenkong saw that she had been cuffed until her face was red. His heart ached as he quickly took out the key and unlocked the handcuffs. Holding her hands with a pained expression, she asked "Does it hurt? "
Shen Manting almost said, "I'll let you try! "
However, she answered obediently, "It doesn't hurt. "
"It's red. How can it not hurt... "
Shen Manting understood what was going on when she saw the man blaming himself. He would be heartbroken if she gave in to him, but he would go crazy if she resisted. As for her hand, it was actually not a big deal. Her skin was fair and tender, and a slight scratch would leave red marks. However, in the eyes of Xue Chenkong, it was as if he was facing a great enemy. He asked Mr. Yuan to get some ointment and carefully applied it on her hand. He even wrapped it with gauze.
Shen Manting looked at the bow on it and couldn't help but laugh. How could she go out looking like that? She wanted to untie it, but Xue Chenkong grabbed her wrist. "Don't. I don't want any scars to be left on your body. "
"This won't leave a scar, " Shen Manting said helplessly.
"Still, no. " Xue Chenkong lowered his head, held her hand, and kissed it. He said pitifully, "Don't untie it, okay? It wasn't easy for me to tie it. " He liked to leave something about him on her, as if that way, she would belong to him more.
Shen Manting couldn't resist his acting like a child to her. "Okay, okay, I promise you, " she said.
Xue Chenkong immediately took advantage of her. "You can't take it off even if you go to work. "
Shen Manting was speechless.
In the end, Xue Chenkong carried Shen Manting in his arms to wash up. He personally picked out her clothes and changed her into them. Of course, the clothes that Xue Chenkong personally picked out were very conservative, and they almost covered her face.
It was the first time in her life that Shen Manting had stripped naked in front of a man. She felt exposed. However, the other party was so calm and composed, as if she was the only one who was uncomfortable. That wasn't all. He carried her downstairs again to eat the breakfast that the servants had re-prepared.
Because Xue Chenkong was around, the servants did not dare to walk around casually, but Mr. Yuan was standing not far away and watching.
Shen Manting felt even more embarrassed at the thought of that. Those who didn't know better might have thought that she was limbless.
After Xue Chenkong fed her two mouthfuls of seafood stew, Shen Manting finally couldn't stand it anymore. "I'll do it myself. "
"I don't want that. " Xue Chenkong continued to whine.
"If this continues, you'll spoil me. " Shen Manting tried to reason with him.
In the end, Xue Chenkong's eyes lit up. "Ah Ting, you found out? I just want to dote on you so much that you can only rely on me. Other than me, no one can take care of you like this. "
Shen Manting heaved a long sigh. What was wrong with the man's brain?
Xue Chenkong's face was serious. "Ah Ting, you have to get used to this kind of life as soon as possible. I won't let you suffer with me around. "
Shen Manting's heart suddenly trembled. He had said those words many times in her dreams. Every time he said them, she would be angry in her dreams. However, she didn't know if it was because her attitude had changed, but she didn't feel angry. Instead, she felt his sincerity. Although Xue Chenkong was a little overbearing, he would never lie.
Shen Manting's heart stirred. She picked up the seafood stew in front of her and mimicked his actions. She fed him a mouthful and said, "You have some too. "
Her unintentional move made Xue Chenkong's eyes turn red. He opened his mouth and said, "Ah Ting, you're so good to me. "
Shen Manting's face was a little red. She fed him again and said in a gentle tone, "Then you have to promise me that you'll tell me everything in the future. We're already married, so we have to trust and love each other. "
Xue Chenkong nodded without hesitation. "I'll listen to you, Ah Ting. "
"I don't like being locked up by you, so please don't lock me up in the future, okay? " Shen Manting took the opportunity to say.
Xue Chenkong's eyes flashed with coldness. They looked at each other for a long time before he nodded stiffly. "If you don't like it, I won't do it. "
Shen Manting's heart softened at the sight of his aggrieved expression. She couldn't help but kiss him on the forehead.
"Ah Ting... " Xue Chenkong was so happy that his heart was beating fast. Shen Manting had taken the initiative to kiss him again. Did she really start to like him a little?
Ahem...
Shen Manting's face turned red all the way to her ears. She really couldn't control her emotions just now, but she felt shy when he looked at her like that. "I have to go to work. "
