176: Seeing Lin Xuan's concentration for the first time, the girl was stunned.

Hmm! (Ò ω Ó ױ)!!!

It seems there’s killing intent?!

Lin Xuan noticed something was wrong, abruptly turned his head, and was met with a pair of resentful eyes… “Qing… Qingge, you’re awake?”

He froze for a moment.

Realizing what was happening, Lin Xuan’s face instantly lit up with surprise.

On the large red wedding bed.

The young woman, who had been sleeping with her eyes closed.

Now, for the first time, revealed her eyes, shining like obsidian, to Lin Xuan.

Those beautiful eyes were so lovely, like the brightest stars in the night sky had descended to earth, making one unable to help but be captivated by them.

Compared to when her eyes were closed… the young woman’s bright eyes appeared clear and full of vitality, filled with confidence and determination, exuding unparalleled charm.

But before Lin Xuan could celebrate and speak… he saw Su Qingge pick up a pen and write stroke by stroke.

【You! Cheated!】

Holy crap!

Barbie Q (I’m done for)~

Lin Xuan’s mouth twitched.

He suddenly remembered his earlier Google search, which Su Qingge had probably seen.

“Qingge, ahem…”

“Don’t worry about such small details! Rather, when did you… when did you wake up?”

“That you could wake up, (*^▽^*) I’m genuinely happy for you. This means your full recovery is just around the corner…”

To avoid getting entangled, Lin Xuan urgently initiated the ‘Topic Diversion’ operation.

He sat by the bed, took the young woman’s fair, delicate hand, and gazed deeply into her eyes.

“Qingge, your eyes are truly beautiful.”

“When they’re closed, they’re like an exquisite meticulous painting, and when they’re open, they’re like a vibrant watercolor.”

“I’ve noticed that the process from your eyes being closed to opening…”

“It’s like watching a violet bloom, from a mysterious, understated beauty to a bright, confident beauty.”

“During this time, every time I saw you sleeping, I often thought…”

“Your eyes, beautiful like two deeply hidden pearls, mysterious and captivating.”

“And when your eyelids flutter and slowly open, how bright will the whole world become with your awakening?”

“Indeed! At least my world, at this moment, is as bright as day because of your beautiful eyes. You are beautiful with your eyes closed, and even more devastatingly beautiful with them open…”

“…”

Praise!!!

Regardless of anything, just praise her hard!!!

Su Qingge had just escaped from boundless darkness, so she must care most about her eyes and everything she sees.

With such praise, even if she remained outwardly calm, her heart would definitely be touched.

As expected.

Su Qingge, who had been somewhat annoyed, immediately blushed when she met Lin Xuan’s fervent gaze.

She unnaturally turned her eyes away, not daring to look at Lin Xuan at all.

Any thought of holding him accountable was completely forgotten… 【Lin Xuan is too exaggerated! My eyes… they’re not that beautiful~】

【Oh my, he’s making me shy.】

【I just opened my eyes, why does Lin Xuan make it sound like I’m some fairy descended to the mortal world…】

【And he even said that because of my eyes, his world is now as bright as day…】

【Ugh~ My~ I’m getting goosebumps (✿ ◡ ‿ ◡).】

【But I didn’t expect Lin Xuan to be so happy about my awakening, he… cares about me a lot!】

…Su Qingge was so shy she didn't know what to do, her gaze flitting around, completely unwilling to look in Lin Xuan’s direction.

(￢_￢).

Before, when she couldn’t open her eyes… although she heard some of Lin Xuan’s cheesy words, she instinctively felt shy.

But at least her eyes were closed, so she couldn’t see Lin Xuan’s expressions or actions.

Now that she could see again… watching Lin Xuan knead her delicate hand, smiling, and saying “strange” things to her.

The impact of that visual combined with the audio was a bit much for the current Su Qingge to handle.

Before becoming a vegetative state, she had never even imagined such a situation.

That being said.

The young woman outwardly dared not look, but her eyes would still occasionally steal a glance at Lin Xuan.

~~(﹁﹁)~~~

This shy demeanor of wanting to look but not daring to, of feigned refusal, made Lin Xuan amused but also filled his heart with a flutter.

He then recomposed himself and began to inquire about Su Qingge’s physical condition.

Learning that other parts of her body were still unable to move… “Qingge, don’t worry! That you can wake up, this is already a huge step forward.”

“This shows that my massages and manipulations these past few days have been effective…”

“Now, as long as you persevere for a while longer, it’s only a matter of time before other parts of your body gradually regain sensation.”

“…”

Upon hearing this.

Su Qingge blinked, her beautiful eyes full of excitement.

In fact, she didn't need Lin Xuan to comfort her; she naturally understood this… the day she would walk again was not far off~

Thinking of this.

She became a little impatient, blinking continuously to urge Lin Xuan to quickly give her rehabilitation and speed up her recovery.

“Okay, okay, okay~”

“Qingge! I know you’re in a hurry, but please don’t rush yet.”

Lin Xuan teased her, then, as usual, climbed onto the bed and pulled the young woman into his arms.

Only at this moment, feeling the warmth and softness of the delicate woman in his embrace, did he truly relax, his heart filled with joy.

Previously, through the speed of obtaining ‘intimacy points’… even though he was quite confident that Su Qingge had a good impression of him and would likely not drive him away after waking up.

However, the character of this Overbearing CEO in novels was too deeply ingrained in people’s minds.

And she also suffered from androphobia.

Lin Xuan still had some hidden worries in his heart.

What if she woke up… and didn’t want to continue this marriage, proposing that he leave with nothing? o(＞﹏＜)o

As the saying goes: a woman’s heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea.

Before personally witnessing her attitude, no one could 100% predict… Su Qingge’s actions after waking up.

But fortunately, after she opened her eyes… the look she directed at him was not disgust, but rather the shy demeanor of a young woman feigning refusal.

When he saw the young woman’s evasive beautiful eyes, Lin Xuan knew in his heart… it was settled!!!

As solid as a mountain!!!

In elementary school textbooks, there was often a saying… the eyes are the windows to the soul, and they don't lie.

Through the young woman’s large, beautiful eyes, Lin Xuan could tell that even if she didn’t love him, she definitely had a good impression of him, and quite a lot of it… But this was normal, after such a long period of careful companionship, how could it be in vain?

Even an ice mountain, under his accumulated warmth, would at least be melted by more than half.

Everything… was the best possible outcome.

He no longer needed to worry about the source of intimacy points in the future.

His ‘intimacy power bank’ would always be by his side, providing him with a stable charge every day.

Yo-shi~~~

؏ ؏ ♦ ᖗ Buddha ◡ Buddha ᖘ ♦ ؏ ؏.

With a heart full of joy, Lin Xuan began his daily intimate massage.

However, he soon felt a bit awkward. ￣□￣｜｜

Before, because Su Qingge’s eyes were closed… Lin Xuan could freely admire her delicate body and take various small liberties.

But now… a pair of sparkling big eyes were blinking and staring at him.

How could he do anything ‘bad’ now?!

At least on the first day she woke up… Lin Xuan felt it was necessary to maintain his image and show that he was a gentleman.

So.

He focused on his work, his eyes fixed on his nose, his nose on his heart, concentrating entirely on the massage.

His eyes no longer wandered, and his physical contact was extremely normal, without any inappropriate gestures.

Unconsciously.

Lin Xuan entered a “flow state” of work, no longer paying attention to the young woman’s gaze, completely focused.

On the contrary, at this moment, Su Qingge’s emotions were fluctuating, and her face was flushed.

She watched Lin Xuan’s slender fingers move over her body, accompanied by a warm, tingling sensation in her limbs.

Her eyes blinked uncontrollably, her earlobes even turned red from shyness, and various thoughts flew through her mind… 【How strange! Before, when I was asleep… although I was also nestled in Lin Xuan’s arms, letting him manipulate and caress me.】

【But it doesn’t seem like my heart was racing as much as it is now?!】

【Now, seeing Lin Xuan’s actions with my own eyes, feeling the pleasure from my limbs, why does it feel so different!】

【But the massage feels so comfortable~~~ Lin Xuan’s massage skills are impeccable…】

【If my body fully recovers in the future, I wonder if Lin Xuan would still be willing to massage me like this?!】

【Lin Xuan is so serious when he works! I used to think some of his actions were deliberately taking advantage.】

【But now it seems… I was completely judging a gentleman with the heart of a petty person.】

【Why didn’t I notice before, Lin Xuan’s side profile is actually quite handsome!】

…As the saying goes:

A man focused on his work is the most handsome.

(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

Su Qingge, with her wide eyes, continuously scanned Lin Xuan’s face, which exuded a unique charm from his serious dedication to work.

From a girl’s perspective… this man might not have delicate features, but he had deep eyes and firm lips.

He was focused on his work, with no unnecessary expressions or movements on his face.

His gaze was firm and clear, like a bright lighthouse, dispelling the darkness in Su Qingge’s heart.

His fingers danced flexibly on her delicate body, tapping out an orderly path to recovery.

His wrists were strong and powerful, demonstrating professionalism and skill.

His serious working appearance was like an artist meticulously carving his masterpiece, extremely uniquely charming.

Gazing at Lin Xuan’s extremely focused face… Su Qingge’s heart raced, (¯﹃¯) and she unconsciously became lost in thought.

Perhaps the old her… would never have imagined… that she, who suffered from androphobia, would one day be so captivated by watching a man… 1 hour later.

Mission accomplished, the first stage of the massage process was over.

Hoo~

Lin Xuan exhaled heavily, wiping the fine beads of sweat from his forehead.

Then he smiled and looked at Su Qingge, and was immediately taken aback.

He saw the young woman staring blankly at him, lost in thought for some reason.

“Qingge? Qingge? Σ(⊙▽⊙"a What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?”

Lin Xuan instinctively took out his phone, opened the front camera, and checked, but found no dirt or anything out of place.

It was still that handsome and dashing face!

At this moment, Lin Xuan didn’t know that, by a strange twist of fate, he had taken another step towards capturing the young woman’s heart.

If he had known… he would definitely be extremely grateful that he hadn’t shown a lecherous expression this time! →_→

^(￣(oo)￣)^

Hearing Lin Xuan’s call, Su Qingge instantly woke up, shifting her gaze as if guilty, completely avoiding eye contact with Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan: “(꒪ ꇴ ꒪(꒪ ꇴ ꒪ ; ) Huh???????”

Ignoring the man’s puzzled gaze, Su Qingge dared not explain the reason for her daze… otherwise, wouldn’t that be utterly embarrassing?!

However, Lin Xuan’s slightly tired appearance was still noticed by Su Qingge, and she couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy and guilt.

Before, when she couldn’t open her eyes… she didn’t fully understand the entire massage process.

She could only perceive Lin Xuan continuously… pressing and pressing.

She originally thought it was just a few presses!

How hard could it be? Easy peasy!

It wasn’t some strenuous exercise!

But today, having witnessed the entire massage process with her own eyes, Su Qingge realized how superficial her understanding was.

Long periods of uninterrupted, precise operations… whether it was acupuncture points, or the amount of force, and all other aspects, required complete concentration to ensure the best therapeutic results.

The pressure, physical strength, and endurance required for this were unimaginable for ordinary people.

And Lin Xuan had been doing this tirelessly, without a single complaint, massaging and clearing her meridians all day, every day.

He really… I’m so touched I could cry! o(╥﹏╥)o

【Thank you, you’ve worked hard.】

【You must be tired! Hurry and rest!】

Gazing at the elegant handwriting on the white paper.

Noticing the young woman’s concern for him, Lin Xuan felt incredibly relieved.

Although he never complained.

In reality, this kind of physical labor was quite tiring.

Aside from the initial excitement brought by physical intimacy, which stimulated dopamine secretion.

In the short term, it made him seem to have a coveted job.

But over time, the excitement faded, and he became numb.

At this point, it was about… physical strength and patience. Sometimes, several hours continuously could be quite monotonous and boring.

But… “Indeed, it was quite tiring.”

“But receiving so much love from my wife instantly cleared my head and made me feel refreshed.”

“I feel like I can massage for another five hundred years~”

“…”

Hearing Lin Xuan call her his wife.

Su Qingge’s eyes widened like brass bells.

Then she immediately shifted her gaze, her cheeks flushed, seemingly unable to face this title yet.

What wife?! (●￣(ｴ)￣●)

That address is too embarrassing, I refuse to acknowledge it…
