Stars In His Eyes-Chapter 1686: His Whole World Is Only You 19
In this life, apart from Lan Li, she had no more worries. Her relationship with her father at home gradually improved, and there was no harm from him. She didn’t need to guard against him; instead, she relied on him. So, in her dreams, she was the carefree Ding Jinshi.
This version of her and the one from the previous life seemed like two different people. In the previous life, when he had the chance to look at her sleeping face so closely, it was already after marriage. At that time, she almost regarded him as an enemy, only having guard and hatred towards him.
Even if she slept beside him, she wished to be far away. Even when tightly embraced in his arms in slumber, her brows were always furrowed. Who knows if there was some nightmare in her dream, but she would never share it with him.
In the stillness of the night, Ding Long stood by her bed, hesitant to leave for a long time.
Ding Long hardly knew how to thank fate for letting him be reborn this time. Once again, he painstakingly kept her by his side, selfishly wanting to hold her in his arms. But in this life, he had changed in many ways.
He thanked fate for bringing him back to her side, thanked the heavens for once again presenting her in front of him.
He loved her, loved her so much that even losing his life, he wouldn’t want to let her go.
He also owed her too much. A truly innocent, romantic, carefree girl in the previous life had been deeply hurt by him and Lan Li, and became another person, one that scared him with unfamiliarity.
"Jinshi, I don’t expect you to love me. Just going on like this, I am satisfied. Stay by my side, smile at me, throw minor tantrums at me, glare at me when you’re angry, pull me along when you’re happy, and that’s enough." Ding Long’s hand gently and cautiously touched her face. This face was a bit plumper than hers at this time in the previous life, but he liked it even more.
In the following two days, Ding Jinshi and two colleagues spent their time traveling, while Ding Long took his subordinates and quickly compressed their work within these two days. Then, he took his men, and the three of them with Ding Jinshi took the same flight back to the capital.
Ding Jinshi didn’t know how long half a year was to others, but to her, it seemed to pass in the blink of an eye. It was merely a momentary oversight of the calendar that half a year thickly slipped by.
The capital welcomed another round of heat. In such weather where an egg placed on a pile of sand could turn into a baked egg in fifteen minutes, Ding Jinshi, if not working, would almost never want to step out of her front door.
"Ding Jinshi, did you secretly eat ice pops?" Ding Long came out of the kitchen with flour on his hands, looking stern. "When did you sneak an eat?"
Six months ago, every time Ding Long became stern, disciplining Ding Jinshi, she would still be afraid. But after living day and night with Ding Long for more than half a year, she could be said to be as fearless as a dead pig in boiling water. Even if Ding Long smeared a layer of soot on his face, she wouldn’t be fazed at all.
"What do you mean, secretly eating? Things kept at home could still be considered a secret steal?" Ding Jinshi grinned cheekily, "Last night in the middle of the night I was too hot to sleep. I initially wanted to get up to pour a glass of ice water to drink, but I didn’t see any ice water in the fridge. So I looked in the freezer section and saw ice pops, and I ate one. I must say, after eating it, I slept much better."
Ding Long frowned deeply. Of course, Ding Jinshi couldn’t find ice water in the fridge. These days, as it was Ding Jinshi’s period, he absolutely wouldn’t put ice water there, fearing she might sneakily drink it disregarding her body. Unexpectedly, this lady would actually get up in the middle of the night to eat ice pops?
