C16 (1/2)

When Zhong Zhen woke up, it was already the morning of the second day. The two of them lay on the sofa for the whole night. The blanket was still covering him. The morning sunlight wasn't too strong. It gently shone through the French windows, making it seem as if it had been there for a long time.

Zhong Zhen moved closer and kissed Xia Ying on the lips.

”What are you doing?” Xia Ying was awakened, and she was extremely unhappy, as she frowned and glared at Zhong Zhen.

”Morning.” Zhong Zhen knew that she was very angry when she woke up, so she probably wouldn't be able to eat well when she woke up. He could only get up and go to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the two of them.

Xia Ying looked at the bustling people in the kitchen, even the largest atmosphere of waking up was gone. She leaned on the sofa and looked at Zhong Zhen. No one said anything, but the atmosphere was just so warm, the feeling of a home that hadn't existed for a long time, seemed like ever since someone came, they had gradually been brought back by Xia Ying.

”When are you leaving?”

”En...” I need to get there quickly and make the final preparations. I should be able to finish the work in a few days. ”

”It's completely solvable, not your current expression.”

”You've already discovered this. Goddess, this is a goddess.” Zhong Zhen did not turn back as he continued to fry the egg, ”It's indeed troublesome.”

”What the hell are you doing?” Unable to hold back his curiosity, he still asked.

”They were doing business at home, but there were some problems recently, so they had to rush the ducks. ”He's a bit nervous.”

Xia Ying could hear the concealment behind his answer and did not ask further.

”What do you want to eat recently? I'll make the fridge.” When Zhong Zhen thought about her culinary skills last night, and how hard it was for him to clean up the kitchen, he felt that he still couldn't let her torture his stomach and kitchen like this.

”Speak!” Is my cooking really that bad?! ” Unknowingly, Xia Ying had already stood beside Zhong Zhen, and casually picked up his kitchen knife, with the intention of pressing it against Zhong Zhen's neck.

In that moment, Zhong Zhen immediately took the blade away, and even held onto both of Xia Ying's hands.

Xia Ying saw that he moved so quickly and felt depressed in her heart. Gu Yi said that he had learnt the art of judo before, was it because of this reason, that her reaction was so fast?

Zhong Zhen also realized that his reaction was a little different from ordinary people. After all, he had been on guard for many years, and it was difficult to overcome his natural reaction. Hence, he tried his best to act natural and slowly withdrew his blade.

”What is it? Murder of her husband? It seems that the dish last night didn't poison me to death, and I only thought of this move? ”I came all the way back here, and it really hurts my little heart …” She even lightly rubbed her head against Xia Ying's shoulder.

”Let go let go. I'll go wash up. ” Zhong Zhen could only let go of her and let her go. Sigh, liking a woman who was too smart was just too dangerous.

However, there were some things that he was definitely unable to say right now. Zhong Zhen was extremely unconfident, even though Xia Ying had put down many defenses when he was around Xia Ying, and he was already satisfied, but there were still some deeper truths that she could not accept. He could only wait.

While Xia Ying was brushing her teeth, she was waiting for her reflection in the mirror. She felt that something was strange, his reaction was also very strange. Everything is weird these days. It was as if she trusted him more and more, and relied more and more on him. She didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing.

When he came out, Zhong Zhen had already prepared breakfast, and even changed his clothes. It seemed that he had really stayed in the washroom for a long time. Eat breakfast. ” Zhong Zhen pulled out a chair, and Xia Ying very naturally sat down. This kind of life, really seemed like it was the life of an old couple.

At the dining table, Gu Yi called and asked if Xia Ying was free today. Xia Ying looked at Zhong Zhen and thought that he would leave later, so he did not have any arrangements. ”I'm free, what's the matter?”

”You have been hospitalized for the past few days. I have checked a few rooms on the Embroidery Road. They are very suitable for a studio, so I would like to see if you have time today.”

Xia Ying was surprised at Gu Yi's speed, but she had already thought of it when she made the suggestion. Gu Yi was steady and efficient, so she said: ”Alright, let's go in the afternoon.”

After arranging a time, Xia Ying would continue eating her breakfast. In that case, Zhong Zhen would no longer have any appetite. ”This is a big problem, I must find a way to solve it.” You want to open a studio together? ”

”Mm, I have this plan.”

Zhong Zhen knew that if he were to help Xia Ying now, she would definitely not agree to it. He still didn't have the confidence to compare his power in Xia Ying's heart with hers. It would be more reliable to delay it for a while.

Standing in the kitchen, he thought for a moment.

If he could take Xia Ying away with him when she was injured, it would save him a lot of time and problems, but, what if she wasn't that important to Xia Ying?!

Xia Ying was depressed, why did she not say that she had things to attend to, did she have to leave early, and was waiting in the kitchen for something, ”What are you doing?”
