Fast Wear: A Different Life

Chapter 234 Lotus Tower (37)

When Ji Xiao woke up slowly, she found that the sunlight outside the window had become much softer. She estimated the time and it should be the afternoon of the next day.

After gradually regaining consciousness, some fragmented memories suddenly emerged in Ji Xiao's mind - it seemed that in her dream, she had vaguely heard a night watchman outside the house announcing the time, and it seemed to be around five o'clock in the morning.

Then, when she woke up again, she was surprised to find that the sun had already set. Ji Xiao gently kneaded her still slightly sore waist, slowly sat up from the bed, and murmured to herself: "Alas, it is true that a beautiful man is a disaster! But this feeling is quite good, but it is a bit tiring. He is really a male vixen, no wonder King Zhou was immersed in Daji in the later period, this vixen is really not called for nothing, it smells so good!"

At this moment, the door was gently pushed open, and Li Xiangyi walked in with a tray. After he placed the tray on the table, he asked, "Xiaoxiao, what did you just say smells so good?"

"Uh...nothing, nothing!" Ji Xiao's face flushed slightly and she quickly changed the subject, trying to hide her feelings.

As Ji Xiao was talking, she was about to get up from the bed, but before her feet touched the ground, Li Xiangyi quickly reached out and picked her up, carefully placing her on the stool next to her.

"Let me help you. Eat something to fill your stomach first." Li Xiangyi said gently.

"Hmm... no wonder my legs feel weak and powerless." Ji Xiao complained softly.

Li Xiangyi subconsciously touched the tip of his nose, showing a somewhat awkward smile, and then pretended to be calm and said: "Haha...Okay, come and eat."

"Yeah." Ji Xiao responded softly, and her eyes immediately fell on the sumptuous food in front of her.

Ji Xiao looked at the food on the table. There was a bowl of steaming green vegetable and lean meat porridge on the tray, and a few plates of exquisite and delicious side dishes were placed next to it. These dishes seemed simple, but they were all cooked according to her preferences.

A warm feeling surged in Ji Xiao's heart and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Then she slowly picked up the spoon and began to savor this warm meal.

Li Xiangyi sat quietly aside, his eyes always fixed on Ji Xiao, his eyes revealing endless tenderness and affection.

Ji Xiao happened to look up and met Li Xiangyi's eyes. Her cheeks immediately flushed and she asked softly, "Why don't you eat with us? Aren't you hungry?"

Li Xiangyi smiled slightly and replied softly: "I'm not hungry yet, eat slowly, I'll watch you."

Ji Xiao was moved when she heard that. She put down the spoon in her hand, reached out and held Li Xiangyi's hand, complaining coquettishly, "Well, I'm really starving. I haven't eaten much since yesterday afternoon."

Li Xiangyi held Ji Xiao's soft hand tightly and kneaded it gently for a few times. A shy smile appeared on his face and he said apologetically: "Hehe... Next time I will definitely feed you first, then I will proceed."

Ji Xiao heard this, shook her head, and said with a helpless smile: "What about next time? Forget it. Even if the land is fertile, it can't bear such frequent cultivation. At least we have to wait for one or two months."

"Hehe... Xiaoxiao, you have to believe in your husband's physical fitness. It's absolutely great, no problem! And one or two months is really too long, it needs at least three or four days." Li Xiangyi looked at Ji Xiao with a silly smile on his face.

Ji Xiao rolled her eyes and said helplessly, "It's not that I don't trust your body, but I really can't stand it! I haven't had a good night's sleep since I came to the city. So no matter what, I have to wait for a month or two."

Li Xiangyi began to act like a spoiled child, pulling Ji Xiao's sleeve and shaking her: "Little~Little~please, just promise me..."

Ji Xiao shook her head firmly: "No means no! Xiangyi, it will be useless even if you act like a spoiled child this time."

Seeing this, Li Xiangyi could only nod dejectedly to show his agreement. In fact, he knew in his heart that he had indeed gone too far during this period of time. If he continued to force it, he might annoy Ji Xiao and extend the time.

Seeing Ji Xiao's firm attitude, Li Xiangyi stopped bargaining.

After all, he knew that his recent behavior was a bit excessive. If Ji Xiao knew his true inner thoughts, she would definitely retort: ​​"Is that a little excessive? It's just a little bit excessive!"

However, this sentence was destined to be unknown to Ji Xiao, because Li Xiangyi only thought about it silently in his heart and did not say it out loud. Therefore, Ji Xiao naturally had no way of knowing his true thoughts.
