Married First and Then Showered with Affection: My Dear Wife, Let's Remarry!

Late at night, Lin Shengsheng, who always had a light sleep, heard a thud beside the bed. Then, the rustling sound of clothes being taken off reached her ears. The familiar scene and the familiar breathing made Lin Shengsheng confirm without opening her eyes that the person was Xin Shaoxuan, her husband whom she had been married to for three years but had only met less than ten times. As she was carefully recalling how many times he had come here in the past three years, the quilt on her body was suddenly lifted. "You, why are you back..." Thinking about what was about to happen, Lin Shengsheng couldn't care less about pretending to be asleep and grabbed Xin Shaoxuan's hand in fear. In the moonlight, her slender and delicate face showed a slight tremble of her long eyelashes, and her eyes were filled with pleading. For three years, every time Xin Shaoxuan came, he had only one purpose - to fulfill his conjugal duties. But he didn't know that this act without any affection only made her more afraid. "Why am I back? Heh, Lin Shengsheng, wasn't it you who went to tell Grandma that I didn't go home and couldn't let you conceive a great - grandchild for the Xin family?" His mocking voice was filled with boundless coldness. When Xin Shaoxuan saw Lin Shengsheng's silence, he thought she had admitted it and was about to lean down towards her. Lin Shengsheng's resisting movement stopped in mid - air when she heard his last words. She gave a bitter smile. Indeed, how could she forget? Fulfilling conjugal duties and getting pregnant was the reason her name was on his household register as his spouse, and it was the only reason she could be close to him. Otherwise, how could a girl from an ordinary family like her be with this man who was as unattainable as a star? The next day, when Lin Shengsheng woke up, there was no one beside the bed. To be precise, every time after they had s*x, Xin Shaoxuan wouldn't stay for a single minute. He would take a shower and leave Nanyuan Shanghe directly. Although she was used to it, for some reason, Lin Shengsheng felt particularly sad today. Perhaps it was because today was her birthday, a birthday without any blessings. As usual, she washed up and then went downstairs to have breakfast and watch the morning news. While drinking black - bean soy milk, she heard Xin Shaoxuan's name on the news. Lin Shengsheng reflexively looked at the screen and saw a report about Xin Shaoxuan going in and out of a hotel with a popular model late at night. Staring at the time shown on the screen, the folic acid tablets in her other hand fell onto the table. A strong sense of self - mockery crossed her lips. So, after leaving her last night, Xin Shaoxuan had gone to be affectionate with the model. In City A, Xin Shaoxuan and the Xin family represented power and wealth. Whether it was ordinary people or the wealthy and noble, everyone would show respect when they heard something related to the Xin family. Over the years, models and celebrities had flocked to Xin Shaoxuan one after another. Because even if they couldn't win his love, just being associated with him could get them on the headlines for a long time, and they were more than happy to do so. "Madam Young Master, the old lady is on the phone..." The nanny, Aunt Zhang, handed the landline phone to Lin Shengsheng. It took her a long time to react and answer it. "Grandma..." Lin Shengsheng tried her best to make her voice sound normal and deliberately added a relaxed tone of laughter. "Did Shaoxuan spend the night at your place last night?" He Bijun was 73 years old this year, but her voice was still strong. Through the phone, Lin Shengsheng could feel a powerful aura pressing down on her. She had always been too scared to even breathe loudly in front of He Bijun. "Yes." Lin Shengsheng knew that He Bijun didn't like girls with her personality. She had tried to change her personality to please He Bijun, but it seemed that personality was inborn. No matter how hard she tried, she could never win He Bijun's favor. So in the third year of her marriage, she gave up changing herself and just stayed in Nanyuan Shanghe, trying to appear in front of He Bijun as little as possible. "Are you still eating black - bean soy milk and folic acid tablets every day?" He Bijun asked. Every time she called, she would always bring up this question. Although she hadn't been able to get pregnant in three years, Lin Shengsheng had been taking pregnancy - preparation items for a full three years. "I'm eating them. Don't worry, Grandma." Regarding getting pregnant, Lin Shengsheng was also very helpless. Every time after Xin Shaoxuan came, she would buy a pregnancy test stick, but over the years, the test result had never shown two lines. "What's reported in the news is just one - sided and not the truth. You and Shaoxuan are husband and wife. You should trust each other. Ask Aunt Zhang to clean up the house. From today on, Shaoxuan will move in with you." He Bijun came to the point of this phone call and hung up before Lin Shengsheng could say anything. Listening to the busy tone on the other end of the phone and looking at the news on the screen, Lin Shengsheng suddenly understood why He Bijun did this. If it were before, she would have been so happy that she would jump up if she knew Xin Shaoxuan was going to move in with her. But now... As long as Xin Shaoxuan didn't hate her, she would be satisfied. Lin Shengsheng picked up the folic acid tablets again and put them into her mouth with the soy milk. She relayed Grandma's words to Aunt Zhang and then went back to her room to tidy up. Before, the room was only for her. Since she was a homebody, she had put many comic books, novels, and magazines in the room. Even in the coffee table and cabinet in the room, she had stored some snacks and drinks. When she was in a bad mood or didn't want to trouble Aunt Zhang, she would just eat some snacks. Now that Xin Shaoxuan was going to move back and live with her, she naturally didn't dare to keep those things. When she was tidying up and saw the nine pregnancy test sticks in the bedside table that only showed one line, Lin Shengsheng's eyes paused. Her thin and slender fingers touched them, and she felt as if she had been pricked by a needle. It was as if a heavy object was pressing on her left atrium, and it became difficult for her to breathe. No one knew how much she loved Xin Shaoxuan, and no one knew how much she had been looking forward to conceiving his child in the past three years. She knew she couldn't get his love, but just thinking that the child would be the crystallization of him and her made her extremely excited. But after three years and failure after failure, she began to doubt whether she could still have his child. "Madam Young Master, the young master's things have been delivered. Where do you think it's better to put them?" Aunt Zhang knocked on the door and came in. Seeing Lin Shengsheng staring at the pregnancy test sticks in a daze, a look of pity flashed across her face. She knew Lin Shengsheng's feelings for the young master, but having worked in the Xin family for so many years, she also knew that her young master was a heartless person. Over the years, no matter what kind of woman it was, her young master had never truly cared about anyone. So, this marriage of theirs was destined to be a disaster for Lin Shengsheng alone. "I'll do it." Lin Shengsheng closed the drawer, composed herself, and took the suitcase from Aunt Zhang's hand. She felt a sense of unease in her heart. This was the first time in seven years that she had touched Xin Shaoxuan's things. Seven years ago, when she was working in a restaurant, she had picked up his watch. At that time, he was noble and yet approachable. After taking the watch from her hand, he not only fired the manager who had bullied her in the restaurant but also helped her pay the tuition for the second semester of her freshman year, saving her from being dropped out of school. After that, she worked in that restaurant for three years to pay off the tuition she owed him with her labor, but she never saw him again. She thought she might never have the chance to meet him in this life. Who could have expected that during a physical examination held by the school in her senior year of college, it was found that her blood was special, and she was then chosen by He Bijun and forced to marry Xin Shaoxuan. Four years in college and three years of marriage. She had known him and loved him for a full seven years. Seven years, more than 2,000 days, and more than 60,000 hours. Lin Shengsheng had never been obsessed with anyone in her life, but she was crazy about Xin Shaoxuan.
