After Rebirth, the Celebrity Daughter is the Medical Expert!-Chapter 279 - 199: You Are My Reason to Live

In the bathroom, Shi Wangyue scattered a basket of fresh rose petals into the newly filled bathtub, then lit a scented candle, filling the room with fragrance.

After everything was ready, he returned to the bedroom where Ning Youguang was still groggily sleeping on the bed.

She really looked exhausted.

He felt a bit of heartache, yet he didn’t regret it.

Kissing her sleeping, flushed cheek, he picked her up from the bed and placed her into the bathtub.

As soon as she hit the water, Ning Youguang’s eyes flew open, startled.

"What’s wrong?" Shi Wangyue asked gently.

Only then did Ning Youguang realize she was already in the bathtub, and she let out a small sigh of relief, "I thought I was drowning."

"You had a nightmare, baby." Shi Wangyue stroked her head, "Don’t be scared, your husband is here."

"..."

Ning Youguang felt like a stone in the water, wanting nothing more than to sink.

—So embarrassing.

That term of endearment.

She quickly submerged herself under the water.

The floating rose petals conveniently covered her blushing face.

Shi Wangyue was alarmed.

He quickly flipped into the tub and pulled her into his arms, "Breathe."

Ning Youguang had no choice but to comply, closing her eyes to breathe.

Her mind rapidly replayed last night’s chaos, "Please leave, I want to soak a bit longer."

Her voice was hoarse, small, soft, like a little girl sulking.

Cute and lovely.

Shi Wangyue saw her look of utter despair and struggled to hold back a laugh, "No, you’ll end up burying yourself in the tub again, and what if you choke?"

"I won’t." Ning Youguang gripped the edge of the tub, "Please leave, I need some quiet."

"Okay, I’m leaving—" Shi Wangyue kissed her forehead, "Call me anytime if you need anything, love."

"Shut up!" Ning Youguang gritted her teeth.

Shi Wangyue left with a smile.

Ning Youguang felt truly mortified.

However, deep inside, there was an inexplicable swirl of complex emotions.

Since their relationship became official, the youngster loved kissing her and holding her.

Though he always appeared gentle and obedient in front of her.

She was quite aware that he was inherently cold, with a strong desire for control.

He would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had that almost cruel, cold aura in his past life.

But, whenever he held her or pressed against her, she’d find a warm allure that was addictive.

He had a magnetic power that could ignite someone in an instant.

Last night, after the brief unfamiliarity at the start, they quickly found harmony.

He was certainly a gentle lover, and even though he struggled himself, he was patient and attentive to her feelings.

—The experience of being together was truly wonderful.

When lost in thought, time passed quickly.

By the time Ning Youguang emerged from the bathroom, the water in the tub had been replaced once more.

After changing clothes back in her own room, she returned to the guest room where she found the bedsheet had been pulled off the bed and placed on the footstool.

Shi Wangyue sat on the bed, staring at a spot on the sheet with a triumphant smile in his eyes.

Seeing her at the door, he almost flew to her side, scooping her up, "Sister was worn out last night, let me hold you."

"..."

Men!

If they’re not ravenous wolves, they’re just dogs.

—She should never have softened towards him.

...

Having said goodbye to years of bachelorhood, Shi Wangyue seemed reborn, his whole body alive, even his steps were happy when he walked.

"I love you." He carried her back to the master bedroom, placed her on the bed, and kept kissing her, whispering his overflowing love and gratitude, "You’re mine now, you’re all mine, I—"

His voice choked slightly, "Even if I die now, I’d feel so blessed."

Ning Youguang covered his mouth with her hand, "Silly you."

Shi Wangyue tilted his head to kiss her hand again, "Even if it’s silly, I’m willing. I’m just—so happy."

—No matter how shameless, he was still her trained pup.

Ning Youguang sighed, stroked his head, "With such a clever mind, don’t be silly."

Shi Wangyue melted under her touch, wishing he could die in her arms.

"Be good, don’t mess around." She kissed his eyes in return, "I’m hungry, need something to eat."

Shi Wangyue immediately got up to order food.

Even his departing silhouette was brimming with joy.

Ning Youguang watched him, unconsciously smiling.

By the time they finished dining, it was already close to four in the afternoon.

After the indulgence of the previous night, now that they were full and satiated, neither had the energy or desire to go out.

Ning Youguang suggested watching a movie in the room.

Shi Wangyue, with her in his arms, sat on the couch picking a movie, finally settling on a romance film together.

Foreign romance films never seem to shy away from some adult content.

By the time Ning Youguang felt something was amiss, Shi Wangyue’s arm was already wrapped tightly around her waist, breathing a bit ragged.

She wanted to distance herself, feeling restless in his lap.

Shifting uneasily for a moment.

Shi Wangyue buried his face in her neck, "Sister, can you please not move?" His voice was hoarse, deep.

Ning Youguang froze in shock, not even daring to breathe.

Shi Wangyue, unable to control his whole being, didn’t want to either.

He looked at Ning Youguang with watery eyes, "Sister, last night I was drunk, I can’t remember many things."

"Now I’m completely sober."

—Sober enough to want you.

Ning Youguang understood his unspoken words.

Her heart pounded, blood coursing backward, her whole being turning scarlet.

"I’m sleepy." She struggled to get off him.

Of course, Shi Wangyue wasn’t about to let her go, holding her tight as he stood, "Let’s sleep together."

...

The guest room had already been tidied by room service while they ate.

But Shi Wangyue seemed to forget that the guest room was actually his domain, as he placed Ning Youguang on the bed and climbed in himself, "So fragrant," he said.

"It’s the scent of sister’s body."

Ning Youguang stiffened, "Have we moved too fast?"

Shi Wangyue turned over, lying on top of her—

Of course, he was careful with the pressure.

"Too fast?" He looked deeply into her eyes, "Do you know how long I’ve waited for this day?"

He spoke each word slowly, heavily, with deep-seated grievance in his eyes.

"Feels like several lifetimes."

Ning Youguang ... softened.

A warm sensation spread across her lips.

Shi Wangyue continued, "Sister, you’re my one and only, fervent and steadfast."

[You’re the reason I keep living.] 1314
