Marrying a powerful man: The third master is wild and untamable

Chapter 9 If I am waiting for you, I am willing to wait for as long as it takes
  In the evening, Shen Xiuwan took a special shower and changed into a brand new silk round-neck skirt.

She took out a gilt rose bird glass perfume bottle from under her makeup and sprayed some on her neck and wrists. This was rose perfume. There were many roses planted in the back garden of Fu Mansion. She guessed that Jincheng should not Hate this scent.

After dressing herself up, she dug out two of her treasured candles.

This was a congratulatory gift from her fifth sister Fu Yunzhu when she and Jincheng got married. It was different from ordinary candles. It was held in a glass cup with a golden wick exposed. The cup was decorated with a white ribbon tied into a beautiful bow.

Yunzhu called this a scented candle and said it was very fragrant when burned.

Shen Xiuwan was very fond of it and was reluctant to use it.

She put the scented candle on the coffee table and noticed the gilt words on the candle -

I love you.

Shen Xiuwan learned some simple foreign words by herself and recognized the meaning of "I love you".

She suddenly felt uneasy.

Such a carefully arranged grand ceremony does not look like an ordinary couple having dinner, but rather like a pair of lovers about to have an ambiguous date to have dinner together, which is quite embarrassing.

She was afraid of Jincheng's jokes, so she put away the pair of candles and put on a half-worn bean paste-colored home-made cheongsam. Her full head of hair was only braided in a loose braid on the side.

She looked in the mirror and remembered Miss Liu Manling's exquisite makeup. She was worried that Jincheng would dislike her for not dressing up, so she hesitated for a long time and finally applied some rouge to her cheeks and lips.

She smiled in the mirror, guessing that she looked pretty good.

She concentrated on waiting for Jincheng to come home. She thought it would only take a quarter of an hour or two, but when the moon came out, she still didn't see anyone.

She was staring intently at the balcony, when her second sister-in-law Xue Qinzhen's laughter suddenly came from downstairs: "I heard from Wang Ma, Xiuwan, you asked the kitchen to prepare a table of food and wine by yourself, and you specially waited for your third brother to come home to eat together. What, all Isn't he home yet by this time?"

Shen Xiuwan looked into the garden and saw Xue Qinzhen walking with her fourth and sixth sisters.

She asked knowingly and looked like a joke.

Shen Xiuwan had no confidence, but she still said stubbornly: "He will be back soon."

But Xue Qinzhen and the others' walk was over, and Jincheng hadn't come back yet.

When Shen Xiuwan was about to fall asleep, the car lights finally came on outside the gate of Fu Mansion.

"Jincheng..."

Shen Xiuwan's eyes lit up and she quickly went downstairs to meet him.

Fu Jincheng stepped onto the porch steps and saw Shen Xiuwan walking towards him like a lively bird: "Jincheng, you are finally back. I have been waiting for you for a long time!"

He handed her the coat he took off: "I didn't ask you to wait."

Shen Xiuwan hugged her coat and followed him upstairs step by step. She said softly, "You came back just in time. I just asked the kitchen to heat up the food, which is all your favorites."

The two sat down in the small living room. Fu Jincheng looked at the untouched food and wine: "You haven't eaten yet?"

Shen Xiuwan smiled and served him rice: "I'm not hungry!"

After serving the meal, she remembered that she had also prepared white wine.

She was in a hurry and started pouring wine for him again, pouring it down, but her stomach growled with hunger.

She lowered her head in embarrassment, embarrassed to look at Jincheng's face.

Fu Jincheng picked up the chopsticks. He didn't understand that everyone was free and equal, so why did Shen Xiuwan have to wait hungry for him to come home for dinner? She was not a slave, so why did Shen Xiuwan have to put him first in everything?

He said: "You can eat first."

Shen Xiuwan served herself a bowl of rice, with unconcealable joy on her face.

She just thought that Jincheng was feeling sorry for her hunger, and her heart became sweeter. She said obediently: "I'm not hungry. If I want to wait for you, I'll wait for you for as long as I want."

Fu Jincheng paused while picking up vegetables.

After a long while, he said: "If you are willing to wait, then just wait."

Shen Xiuwan was immersed in the joy of having dinner with him and was not aware of his emotions.

She put bisnail shrimp and cherry meat into the empty plate in front of him, and said diligently: "This is my hometown dish. I specially made it for you to try. It's a pity that I don't have a mold at home, otherwise I would like to make some plum blossom cakes for you." You eat, in my hometown, there are people selling plum blossom cakes in the streets and alleys, and adults and children like to eat them."

Fu Jincheng didn't answer her words, nor did he eat the food she served.

Seeing that the atmosphere had cooled down, Shen Xiuwan glanced at him anxiously, trying to find a common topic: "Adjutant Fang said that the railway is very difficult to build. You went to the Yamen today. Have you discussed it with those foreigners?"

The man's voice was calm: "You don't have to work hard to find these lame topics. It's just fine if you don't talk."

Shen Xiuwan was surprised by his indifference. She opened her mouth to explain something, but in the end she said nothing and only lowered her head in embarrassment.

After finishing the meal, Shen Xiuwan noticed that the dishes she gave him had not been touched at all.

He doesn't like her hometown food.

In other words, he doesn't like her.

The original excitement and joy seemed to have been poured with cold water, and Shen Xiuwan felt even more disappointed.

At night, when Shen Xiuwan was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, she heard that Fu Jincheng had finished taking a bath, pulled over half of the silk quilt, and lay down outside her at arms length.

Her breathing became heavier.

In the silence, she heard Jincheng whisper: "Aren't you asleep yet?"

Shen Xiuwan was still thinking about the fact that he deliberately refused to eat the food from her hometown. The disappointment in her heart could not be dissipated for a long time, so she turned inward, twisted a strand of hair between her fingers, and said "hmm".

There was no movement next to him.

I don't know how long it took, just when she thought Jincheng had fallen asleep, the other party suddenly turned over and held her waist, put one hand on her side, and covered her completely under him.

The breath on her neck had a somewhat aggressive but restrained air. When she was caught off guard, the white silk nightgown slipped quietly, revealing the girl's beautiful and thin collarbone.

"Jin, Jincheng..."

The coldness of the spring night invaded her, causing her to tremble slightly, and then she fell into a hot and hard embrace.

Before she could say anything else, Fu Jincheng kissed her lips.

She smelled of rosewater.

He doesn't hate the smell.

There were no stars tonight, and the moonlight swayed outside the window all night like water.
