Chapter 405: Chapter 407: Wipe Your Drool
In the morning, Shen Cheng indulged in a rare moment of staying in bed.
She had already woken up but pretended to still be asleep, her eyes closed, her hand unconsciously reached into the man’s pajamas beside her and clung to his waist, refusing to let go.
Shi Yu had a sturdy and slim waist, and the skin within reach was absurdly smooth, prompting Shen Cheng to suddenly find the sensation very soothing.
When she touched his skin, Shen Cheng distinctly felt his body shudder.
Afterward, his hand covered hers, gently pinching her restless little hand.
Shi Yu thought she was still sleeping, so his actions were very light, and he didn’t wake her up.
Shen Cheng enjoyed the gentleness that came so naturally to this man, and her lips curled into a smile in a place where Shi Yu couldn’t see.
Morning is when a man’s self-control is at its weakest, and her constant hugging and touching...
Seemed a bit unfair.
So, pretending to turn over, she continued to feign sleep.
Shi Yu also turned to hold her from behind for a while longer before getting out of bed.
Shen Cheng squinted for a moment, then got up to wash and dress.
When she came downstairs, the private doctor was removing the gauze from Shi Yu.
After removing the gauze, the wound on his arm had healed, but there was a small scar left behind.
Shen Cheng walked over, touched it, and frowned, "It’s scarred."
Shi Yu reached out and pulled her hand, scooping her into his embrace, letting her sit on his lap.
Looking down, he met her gaze: "I don’t mind."
"But I do."
The scar had been left there because of her.
"The mark you’ve left, I like it."
"..."
Shen Cheng didn’t say anything, and not knowing what came over her, she leaned in and pressed her lips against his scar with a kiss.
She didn’t understand what this gesture meant.
It was only after doing this that she felt something was amiss.
Indeed, Shi Yu’s expression turned fervent in an instant.
Shen Cheng knew she had ignited a flame, and before she could react, she found her lips captured by his in the next second.
He imprisoned her in his arms, entangling her fiercely.
The private doctor, very wisely and experienced, shifted his gaze away as if he were invisible.
He was used to such scenes, but if he dared to sneak a peek at the Young Madam’s charming demeanor... he might as well start digging his own grave.
It was a good while before the two ended their passionate kiss.
Only then did the private doctor turn back, quickly advising dietary precautions and the need to avoid water or hefty movements for the time being.
Then, seizing the opportunity, he hurriedly made his exit.
Over breakfast, Shen Cheng suddenly had an idea, looking up at Shi Yu, who was reading the newspaper across the table: "Tonight, let’s have Second Young Master Qin and Ye Zi over for dinner."
With so much happening lately, and Qin Jin getting injured because of her, it would seem rather negligent not to inquire about them.
Moreover, with Qin Jin injured, no telling how much Ye Zi would be worrying.
Shi Yu didn’t even lift his head, responding coldly: "They don’t want to come."
Don’t want to come?
Shen Cheng frowned, "Why?"
"They want privacy."
"Why?"
"They’re in the honeymoon phase."
"..."
Shen Cheng fell silent; finally, Shi Yu glanced at her, his lips moving slightly: "Besides, do you really want to see outsiders right now?"
Shen Cheng: "..."
If Qin Jin knew that, after getting injured while helping someone, he had been categorized by someone as an "outsider," who knows if he would be furious enough to blow his top.
