Chapter 28 I Won’t Eat You

But Wang Huimin stubbornly held onto him, refusing to let him leave, with good reason, calling him Uncle Song repeatedly. “Uncle Song, don’t go. It’s my first day in a new place, and I can’t sleep without someone by my side. Plus, I was scared by a mouse earlier. If you leave, I won’t be able to sleep all night.”

 “We’re a married couple now, not just a single man and woman. Even if we don’t sleep together, people outside will assume we did, so there’s no difference.” “Besides, I’m just asking you to sleep with me, not do anything else.

 I’m a girl, and I don’t mind, so why are you so nervous?” Song Jianjun looked at Wang Huimin’s determined face, which was set on not letting him leave, and his expression changed slightly. “Xiaomin, what you said is true, and I’m not treating marriage as a joke.

 If I choose it, I’ll take it seriously. I just don’t want you to regret it one day.” “Although we’re registered, it was a temporary measure.

I didn’t force you, and I’m doing this for your sake.” “If you have other, better options in the future, I’ll respect that.” Wang Huimin knew what he meant, took his hand, and smiled, “I know you didn’t force me, and I trust your character even more.” “I’m not treating marriage as a joke either.

 Although it’s a temporary measure, my desire to be with you is real.” “I know what kind of life I want to choose, and I know who I’ll be happy with. Being with you is my own choice, and I’ll never regret it, nor will I let you regret your choice.”

“I also believe that only I can give you happiness. Are you willing to believe me?” At that moment, in the moonlight, the expressions on their faces were not very clear, but Song Jianjun felt an unparalleled sincerity in the strong girl’s eyes. A different kind of emotion rose in his heart, and he blurted out subconsciously, “I believe you.” He realized what he had said after he said it, but it was too late to regret it.

 Wang Huimin smiled, a smile that was incredibly pure and bright, and took the initiative to lean gently on his chest. She hugged his waist and said softly, “Thank you for believing in me. I won’t let you down.” Feeling the fleshiness under her hands, she thought, “No wonder he was a soldier. He’s been farming at home for so many years, but he’s still in such good shape.

 He has muscles on his waist, and he’s very manly, much better than Song Fu, that pale, skinny guy.” Song Jianjun had no idea what Wang Huimin was really thinking and was still slightly moved.

 He saw the girl’s initiative and sincerity, and this time he didn’t refuse, hugging her gently. “The ground is cold, and you’re not wearing shoes. Go sit on the kang quickly. I’ll find a cloth to wipe your feet.” After saying that, he turned around and took a clean cloth towel, wiping the dirt off Wang Huimin’s feet.

 He went into the inner room and brought out the bedding, spreading it out for Wang Huimin. After thinking about it, he put his bedding as far away from Wang Huimin as possible, which was the hottest part of the kang. Seeing that he was trying to stay away from her, even putting the bedding on the hot part of the kang, she thought he was really clueless.

Wang Huimin immediately pulled the quilt over, “You’re burning so much fire tonight, the kang is scalding hot, what are you doing sleeping there?” “Just sleep next to me, I won’t eat you, what are you afraid of?” This time Song Jianjun hesitated for a moment, not sure what he was thinking, and didn’t refute, silently taking off his shoes and getting on the kang.

 But because Wang Huimin was sleeping on one side, he couldn’t take off his pants, or he would be acting like a hooligan, so he could only make do with sleeping like that. But that was his idea. Wang Huimin didn’t care about that.

 It was hot in the summer, and this was all she had, so she wouldn’t put on more clothes. After tossing and turning for so long, they were both very tired, and with Song Jianjun sleeping next to her, she felt especially at ease, lying down and hugging the quilt, falling asleep in no time. But Song Jianjun didn’t fall asleep as quickly as she did. Hearing the little girl’s even breathing not far away, he felt a sense of reality.

He was really married, and his new wife was sleeping next to him. He was almost thirty years old and thought this was how his life would be, but he didn’t expect to marry a teenage girl who was about the same age as his nephew. The girl was beautiful and generous, didn’t mind that he was old and lame, and wholeheartedly wanted to live with him. His estranged nephew also supported him.

 All these good things seemed to have fallen from the sky. No one doesn’t want to be happy, and he’s the same. He hopes to have a wife and children, a warm kang, and a good life, but he doesn’t want to delay a good girl. Since the girl sincerely wants to be with him and doesn’t feel wronged, he will definitely treat her well.

At this moment, Song Jianjun’s thoughts changed a lot. Maybe it was because Song Jianjun was with her, Wang Huimin, who had been frightened, slept especially soundly in the second half of the night. She even dreamed that Song Jianjun’s legs were healed and he wasn’t lame at all. She was so happy that she had a smile on her lips in her sleep.

 Maybe it was an instinct to move closer to something that made her feel safe. She didn’t know how she rolled over in the middle of the night, but she fell asleep in Song Jianjun’s arms and continued to sleep. But when he felt a soft body in his arms, Song Jianjun woke up. Seeing the little girl sleeping soundly in his arms, her little head rubbing against his chest a few times unconsciously, and then clinging to him to continue sleeping, a trace of tenderness crossed his stern face.

He gently straightened the strands of hair that had fallen on her face because of her turning over, not moving, for fear of waking her up. It wasn’t until dawn when it was time to get up and cook that Song Jianjun carefully backed away, wanting to get up and cook quietly. He didn’t expect that as soon as he moved, the little girl woke up.

When she opened her eyes and saw that she was in his arms, her face turned red, but she didn’t leave, and instead raised a smile. “Uncle Song, when did you wake up?” Wang Huimin usually gets up quite early, but last night was the first good night’s sleep she had since she was reborn, so she woke up a little later.

She usually gets up at this time every day. Meeting the little girl’s bright smile early in the morning, Song Jianjun was also in a good mood. With the change in his thoughts last night, he didn’t feel awkward when they came into contact again today, returning her a faint smile. “I just woke up too. I’ll get up and cook first, you lie down for a while.” After saying that, he turned over and got up to put on his clothes.

Wang Huimin also noticed the change in Song Jianjun’s attitude towards her and couldn’t be happier. She also turned over and sat up, her voice a little more cheerful. “I’ve slept well too, I’m not going to lie down. I’ll go into the inner room to get dressed and cook with you.” Seeing that the little girl was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday, with her snow-white arms and legs exposed, and running into the inner room to get dressed in slippers, she was really treating him as her husband, not avoiding him at all.

A flush rose on Song Jianjun’s face, but the awkwardness from before had turned into a trace of happiness and recognition.
