C283 Chapter 283
Zhixin's eyes were burning as she looked at him and nodded emotionally. "Alright."
"Next time I'll think about tying two big sponges on either side of your face."
As he spoke, he carefully blew on Zhixin's face, as if he was afraid that he would hurt her.
Zhixin was amused by his nonsensical words. "Do you think I'm a sponge baby?"
"If you really are a sponge baby, I won't have to worry!"
However, Xi Shenyuan had a serious expression.
Her pair of deep eyes were filled with heartache. She frowned and continued in a deep voice, "If this goes on, I'm worried that I'll forcefully tie you to my side 24 hours a day! This way maybe you'll be safer. "
Zhixin laughed, but there were tears in the corners of her eyes. "Tell me, do you think everyone in the world but you treats me like a super human being? They both think that I, Shen Zhixin, will never feel pain or fatigue … "
As she spoke, her throat had gone completely hoarse.
Zhixin would never forget her mother's merciless slap when her head was covered in blood!
She wasn't blaming him, nor was she holding a grudge. His heart ached …
His heart hurt so much …
If she could, she wished that she could be a small pocket person, protected by Xi Shenyuan for 24 hours in his pocket, wherever he went, she would go.
That way, she would be able to escape, and not have to endure all of this!
"Don't laugh, it's uglier than crying."
Xi Shenyuan's eyes were dry as he stared at Zhixin. He reached out his hand to grab Zhixin's neck, making her bury her head in his chest. "If you want to cry, just cry. Don't pretend to be strong in front of me. I don't like it."
In the end, as soon as Xi Shenyuan finished speaking, Zhixin fell into his arms and broke down into tears.
Perhaps, this was the only harbor that she didn't need to pretend to be strong in!
Xi Shenyuan's ape arm wrapped tightly around her waist, as if he was afraid that she would disappear one day.
He lovingly kissed her heart and swore in his heart that he would do his best to protect her from now on.
This kind of girl who was willing to sacrifice her all for the world, why was she always being held up by the people of the world, not understanding, and not cherishing …

After dinner, Nuannuan nestled in the hall and went to look at the sponge baby.
When Xi Shenyuan was helping Zhixin clean up the dishes, he noticed the cup on the table.
His sword-like eyebrows slightly knitted as he stared at Zhixin in puzzlement. "What is this?"
Zhixin wiped the table, feigning carelessness. "It's nothing!" It was just a tea set. When he was shopping, he accidentally caught a glimpse of it. Hm? Don't you think it's cute? "
As Zhixin spoke, she sneaked a peek at him. He knocked the teacup a few times as if testing the toughness of the cup.
Finally, she raised her eyelids and looked at Zhixin, saying seriously, "If I say I don't want this, would you be angry?"
"Are you serious?"
Zhixin pouted and glared at him.
"It's fake."1
Xi Shenyuan looked at her angry face and answered without thinking. However, his face remained expressionless.
That's more like it!
Zhixin smiled in satisfaction.
Xi Shenyuan put the tea cup back into the box silently. Then, he took the set of cups and saucers and put them into the kitchen without hesitation, hanging them in the cabinet at the top.
That cupboard doesn't open once in a hundred years.
Zhixin's smile froze on the corner of her mouth as she looked at him with a wounded look as he carefully put away the teacup.
"Do you really dislike the teacup I bought?"
Zhixin couldn't hold it in any longer, so she asked him.
His tone was slightly cold.
"Nope."
Xi Shenyuan denied and said, "I like it."
"Then why did you keep it?"
Zhixin was truly unhappy.
"Do you like it when you put it away?"
Xi Shenyuan hugged his chest as he looked at Zhixin.
"Yes."
Zhixin nodded seriously and went around Xi Shenyuan into the kitchen. "I spent 50 yuan to buy them, and I didn't just want to lock them in the cupboard to display them. I like them, so I can't wait to use them. This is a form of respect!"
