C35 Husband Sleeps with Me
Ning Qianyu glanced at Mu Shengchen and then lowered her head to scoop the dumplings into Mu Shengchen's bowl.
Mu Shengchen finished them silently then placed the bowl on the tea table.
"I'll go wash the dishes," Ning Qianyu stood up and was about to go wash the dishes, but her legs felt numb from sitting too long, causing her to stumble. Mu Shengchen saw she was about to fall, he immediately reached out his hand and pull her into his arms.
He lost his balance and both of them fell on the couch. Ning Qianyu lifted her head and saw Mu Shengchen's face being so close to hers.
The room instantly filled with the ambiguous atmosphere. Unknowingly, their lips drew closer to each other.
Just as they were almost going to kiss, an ear-piercing ringtone rang at the wrong timing.
"Uh, let me answer the call," Ning Qianyu got up from Mu Shengchen's body in embarrassment.
Mu Shengchen looked away and continued watching the TV as if nothing had happened. Only he himself knew how distracted he was. Although he was watching TV, all his attention was on Ning Qianyu who was talking on the phone.
"Mom, why are you still up so late? Uh… I fell asleep, so I didn't answer. Okay, I'll go to the hospital tomorrow. Alright, rest early," After Ning Qianyu hung up the phone, she glanced at Mu Shengchen who was watching TV seriously, and then went into the kitchen to wash the dishes.
After washing the dishes, she brought out some fruits from the kitchen, then, she silently sat on the other couch.
The two of them silently watched the television, eating fruits, as if nothing had happened.
The clock on the wall pointed its shorter, thicker leg at ten, only then did Mu Shengchen got up from the couch and move into the wheelchair, getting ready to go back to his room to rest. Ning Qianyu went into the kitchen and poured a glass of milk for Mu Shengchen before bringing it over.
"Have a glass of milk, it will help you to sleep better."
When Mu Shengchen reached out to take the glass, he coincidentally touched Ning Qianyu's ice-cold fingertip. His eyes squinted, "Why is your finger so cold?"
Ning Qianyu retracted her hand, feeling a little embarrassed, "About that, I was born with an abnormally cold body."
Mu Shengchen's cold gaze landed on Ning Qianyu's face, making her to feel confuse.
Somehow, Ning Qianyu felt like her heart was pounding off her chest.
"I'll go to sleep first," Ning Qianyu anxiously pinched her fingers, then turned around and entered the room.
Even though the air conditioner was on, the room was still a little chilly.
Just as Ning Qianyu climbed into bed, there was a knock on the door. She stuck her head out and saw Mu Shengchen walked in from the outside.
Mu Shengchen then lifted the blanket and went to bed, under Ning Qianyu's gaze. He embraced Ning Qianyu in his arms, doing it so naturally.
Ning Qianyu closed her eyes, feeling his breathing by her ear. All of a sudden, she felt her shirt lifted and a warm sensation on her lower abdomen, Mu Shengchen placed his warm palm over her lower belly.
Ning Qianyu was stupefied. What was he trying to do?
Mu Shengchen maintained this gesture without moving. After a while, his breathing became even, it was obvious that he had fallen asleep.
Ning Qianyu's lower abdomen, on the other hand, felt a lot better too.
Ning Qianyu slowly opened her eyes. She could vaguely see the handsome figure of the man beside her in the dark. He closed his eyes, pursing the corner of his lips, sleeping soundly, looking so charming and calm.
He actually knew that this method would relieve her period pain. He did the same thing last night too.
Never would she have thought that there would be a man in this world who would use his palms to warm her lower abdomen. What was more, she did not think that this person would be Mu Shengchen.
What had she done to make him care for her so much?
They were so close to each other. His gentleness that was concealed beneath the icy cold personality touched Ning Qianyu's heart without her knowing.
Ning Qianyu fell into slumber in a twinkling of an eye.
Mu Shengchen was like a warmth bag to her during her menstruation, but every time Ning Qianyu remembered their contractual marriage, her heart felt bitter.
"Qianyu?" Ning Shujun called out a few times before Ning Qianyu came back to her senses, "Mom, what's the matter?"
"I'm fine, you're the one who's not fine. What were you thinking just now?" Ning Shujun asked with a smile.
"N-Nothing. Mom, this is the fish soup I made this morning. It helps to heal your wounds," With a blush on her face, Ning Qianyu opened the thermos container and poured the soup into a bowl.
Ning Shujun had been in love before too. Upon seeing her daughter blush, she immediately understood what had happened. Seeing her daughter happy, she also felt happy. She then said, "Qianyu, leave the soup aside for now. I have something to tell you."
Ning Qianyu looked doubtfully at her mother, "The soup needs to be drunk while it's hot."
Before she could finish her sentence, Ning Shujun immediately asked, "When are you and Shengchen plan to have children?"
Hearing Ning Shujun's words, Ning Qianyu was shocked and accidentally spilled some soup from her bowl.
She then put down the thermos container in a panic and went to the bathroom to get a towel to clean the coffee table.
Ning Shujun stared at Ning Qianyu, "Shengchen doesn't like children? Or was it because he was injured that he couldn't…"
Ning Qianyu's face was as red as an apple after hearing what her mother said.
How could she tell her mother that she was not sure whether was he impotence? Therefore, she could only say perfunctorily, "Mom, we've just got married. We haven't talked about that yet."
"True," With Ning Qianyu words, Ning Shujun felt more at ease. She shifted her gaze to Ning Qianyu's hand, "How is your physiotherapy going?"
"It's already ended. After checking up tomorrow to confirm the recovery progress," Ning Qianyu suddenly remembered something else, "Oh right, Mom, I've already passed the application for the Post-Graduate School of Provincial Medical University. I'll study there two days later."
While Ning Qianyu was informing her mother, she took out the confirmation letter for the Post-Graduate School of Medical University from her bag and handed it to Ning Shujun.
"Really?" Ning Shujun took the confirmation letter that Ning Qianyu handed with excitement in her voice.
She had never told Ning Qianyu that she had a heart attack because someone told her that Ning Qianyu had faced a medical accident. Not only had she been expelled from the hospital, but her medical license had also been revoked. Now that Ning Qianyu had entered the institute as she wished, she finally felt at ease.
"Of course it's true. And I'll be the student of the most well-known professor in the country, Professor Mo Yan," Seeing her mother felt so happy, cheered her up too.
"To be able to study in your dream university, Qianyu, you'll have to make good use of this opportunity."
"Mom, I will," This was her dream, her mother's wish, and his hope. She would definitely cherish it.
"Mom, you remember to drink the fish soup. I'm going back to cook lunch for him," Ning Qianyu picked up her bag and thermos container from the couch.
"Okay!" Ning Shujun watched Ning Qianyu leave the ward with a smile.
Ning Qianyu walked into the elevator and passed a middle-aged man in a suit.
They happened to bump into the each others' shoulder, causing the thermos contained to drop on the ground.
"I'm sorry," The middle-aged man squatted down and was about to pick up the thermos container for Ning Qianyu, but she rejected him.
"It's okay, I'll do it myself."
Ning Qianyu crouched and picked up the thermos, then entered the elevator.
