Chapter 1848 Tacit Understanding

Zhang Xiaowei's bitterness grew. How could it last long to seduce a man with beauty? A woman's youth is only a few years. She greedily hoped to stay by his side for a few more years, rather than doing that thing whenever they were together without any communication.

She clenched her fists and spoke with difficulty, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

"You don't have to apologize to me. If you don't want to, I won't force you, but I hope you remember that I didn't marry you to show off, and you're not that good-looking." Xu Molian has her own pride. He won't lose face if he forces a woman who doesn't want to.

Zhang Xiaowei couldn't say anything. She moved the corners of her lips and wanted to ask, "Can you try to love me?"

But she couldn't say it. Why should she? And can she love him?

In the end, she chose to remain silent.

All the way back to Hexi Garden without saying anything, Zhang Xiaowei wanted to find an opportunity to thank him for helping her at the Garden Hotel today, but then she let it go. He probably did it for his own face. She didn't need to be sentimental.

After washing up, Xu Molian went to the study. Zhang Xiaowei went to bed early, and the two of them still didn't say a word.

It was past one o'clock in the morning when Xu Molian finally came.

The temperature in the bedroom was very pleasant, and the dim warm light carried the faint fragrance unique to girls. That was the smell of Zhang Xiaowei, he remembered.

He tiptoed to the other half of the bed and lay down. He tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, then he leaned sideways and propped up his head to stare at the sleeping face.

Zhang Xiaowei seemed to have slept very sweetly, but her brows were slightly frowned. I don't know if she was dreaming about something or was worried. She didn't look very happy.

He stretched out his hand and stroked her brow. Zhang Xiaowei moved, and he quickly retracted it.

Seeing that she didn't wake up, he peeked openly again.

The clock was pointing to 2:30 in the morning. It was the first time that Zhang Xiaowei had insomnia since he moved into Hexi Garden. Finally, he couldn't help but gently embrace her in his arms. He didn't know whether it was the fragrance on her body that helped him sleep or he was tired, but he fell asleep unconsciously.

This was the last storm in late autumn, and it was particularly fierce. Zhang Xiaowei had been working for nearly a month, and she was very familiar with the procedures and operations of the department, and she got along well with her colleagues.

After that day, colleagues in the department speculated about her identity, but she said nothing and just laughed it off.

When she woke up that night, Xu Molian arranged a car for her to drive. During this time, she and Xu Molian formed a new tacit understanding. If he didn't have breakfast with her in the morning, she would drive to work by herself that day. If they had breakfast together, they would go to work together in Wutou's car. The same was true after get off work. Wutou would notify him in advance if there was something, and they would go home together if he didn't notify him.

Their relationship was still lukewarm, but it was developing in the direction of forgetting warmth.

They go to work, go home, eat, and make love every day...

After that time, Zhang Xiaowei basically never refuses Xu Molian's request again. No matter what time and place, he tries to cooperate with her and enjoy himself.

Love between men and women is actually like that. Zhang Xiaowei has figured it out. Being able to please others with beauty is also a skill. Why should she think so far ahead? Why should she insist on his love? Why should she ask for something that doesn't belong to her? What's the difference between her and her original self?
