Every time he looked at it would be with a distant feeling…
Shangxin pulled herself out from her memories and scratched his palm. She said softly, “I didn’t bring any clothes to change into, how am I going to stay?”
“…”
Tang Yuansi looked down at the mischievous hand that scratched him. She scratched his hand, but he felt like she had scratched his heart instead.
He swallowed his saliva and looked at the only bag she was carrying.
Her luggage must have been taken by her manager.
It was a bit troublesome if she was going to stay.
Shangxin thought that Tang Yuansi would either send her back or ask the butler to prepare new clothes for her. Instead, he said, “It’s okay. You can wear mine.”
Shangxin was stunned,
Before she could react, Tang Yuansi took her to the closet and opened it.
He pointed at all the male shirts and asked her, “Do you prefer white or blue? Grey looks good too. Anyway, you are so white, you will look good in any color.”
He spoke twice as much today than he normally would.
And every sentence felt so affectionate.
So sweet.
When he realized that she had not answered, he pulled out a shirt and held it in front of her.
He chose a white cotton shirt.
“This shirt is bigger and is comfortable to wear. Do you like it?”
Shangxin was speechless as she looked at how he was recommending his own shirt to her as pajamas.
She took the shirt and walked to the bathroom as she blushed.
“I’m going to bathe.”
Then, she rushed in and slammed the door.
She leaned on the door and breathed heavily.
She patted her face.
She needed to calm herself down.
Tang Yuansi hadn’t told her if he wanted this baby.
What they were doing was illegal cohabitation.
Even if the baby was born, it would be illegitimate.
Shangxin’s heart fell. She was going to ask him properly after she bathed.
When she finished bathing, she looked at the lonely shirt hanging on the rack. Then, she remembered something important.
She wrapped herself with a towel and walked to the door. She was about to open the door and shout for him, but before she could open her mouth, she saw a figure by the door. She almost screamed.
She glared at Tang Yuansi when she recognized him.
She covered her chest and stuttered, “What are you doing at the door? I was frightened to death!”
“I forgot to tell you that the bathroom was slippery. I was afraid that you would slip and fall. I wanted to go in but, I am afraid that you would scold me…” Tang Yuansi stood at the door and looked like a lost child as he explained, “Are you done with bathing? If you are not, I can accompany you.”
“…!!”
This was the first time she had heard a man suggesting a bath together and it was with such an earnest tone, like she was a patient to be taken care of.
“I’ve finished bathing.” Shangxin blushed as she replied.
Tang Yuansi’s tone was filled with regret. “Oh…”
Shangxin was stunned, so was he worried about her or did he want to take advantage of her?
