Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Tang Yu ran to the wine cellar and poured herself a glass of whiskey with ice.
She covered her burning cheeks and took a few sips before she calmed down.
Tang Yu did not know what Miles’s expression would be like just now, but she felt embarrassed.
After all, they were not a couple in love, and they were even less familiar with each other. They had suddenly turned from strangers into husband and wife!
He did not think that she was not reserved when she said those words just now, right?
After two glasses of wine, Tang Yu wanted to have another drink.
The maid Lucy suddenly appeared and said to her, “Madam, sir would like to invite you back to your room to rest.”
Tang Yu knew that the truth that she had been dilly-dallying and unwilling to face was finally here.
Since they were married, she really wanted to spend the rest of her life with him. They couldn’t possibly stay in different rooms forever, right?
Tang Yu ran to the wine cellar and poured herself a glass of whiskey on ice.
Covering her burning cheeks, she took a few sips of the chilled whiskey before calming down.
She didn’t know how Miles was feeling, but she was embarrassed.
After all, they were not a couple in love. Moreover, they were not even familiar with each other, having been complete strangers before their marriage.
Had he thought of her as unreserved when she said those words just now?
Even after having two glasses of fine wine, Tang Yu wanted another.
The maid, Lucy, suddenly appeared, interrupting her drinking session. “Madam, Sir would like to invite you back to your room to rest.”
Tang Yu knew that the reality that she had been trying to run away from was finally here.
They were actually married, and she truly wanted to be together with him for the rest of their lives. They couldn’t possibly remain in different rooms for the rest of their lives, right?
Furthermore, she had no reason to avoid this matter.
It had already happened last night anyway. What was there left to be afraid of?
At worst, she could just close her eyes and wait for it to be over.
Tang Yu gritted her teeth before downing another glass of whiskey. She felt dizzy as she tried to stand.
Shaking her head, she headed upstairs.
Miles had been taking a shower when Tang Yu had entered the room.
The splashing sound of water filled the entire room, which made Tang Yu lose her nerves again.
She closed the door, mustering up her courage with a deep breath, and carefully walked past the bathroom. It was then that Miles called out to her.
“Is it you, Xiao Yu?”
“Yes, it’s me.” Tang Yu immediately stopped in her tracks.
How could he hear her through the loud splashing of the water? How sharp exactly was this man’s hearing?
“Can you help me bring my pajamas over? I forgot to bring it in.”
Tang Yu did not find it suspicious. She went to the bedroom, bringing over the pajamas that had been placed neatly on the bed.
“I’ve brought them. Can you come out and get them yourself?”
Miles replied, “I’m in the bathtub right now. Why don’t you help me bring them in?”
She bit her lip and carefully pushed the door open before entering delicately.
There was a pair of sinks in the bathroom that separated the designated dry and wet areas. The bathroom itself was inside a cubicle.
She placed the clothes on the shelf outside. She did not dare to look at Miles, who was inside, before turning around and running.
Looking at her retreating figure, Miles could not help but chuckle softly.
At that moment, he was not wearing his glasses, and his eyes were deep.
He laid down in the large circular bathtub, his arms spread out on the edges as if he was trying to be sexy.
Ah, it was a pity that his cute little wife had not seen the pose that he had deliberately struck for her.
By the time Miles came out of the shower, Tang Yu had already finished unpacking her luggage.
“Xiao Yu, it’s your turn to take a bath. I’ve already filled the tub.”
He came to the door of the changing room. Tang Yu looked up at him before taking a deep breath.
He was still wearing his gold-rimmed glasses and his black silk pajamas that had just been ironed. His freshly washed, soft hair laid on his head. However, unlike yesterday, his hair was no longer covering his glasses. It was in a middle parting with the sides tucked behind his ear.
He really had the beauty of a cultured scum!
This gentle and beautiful man was her husband!
Deep down, she was drooling over the magnificent sight.
Tang Yu picked up her gown and rushed to the bathroom. “Okay, you can sleep first!”
She stayed in the bathroom for half an hour without leaving.
As her gentle husband approached the bathroom door, he called out, “Xiao Yu, are you done bathing?”
No answer emerged from the bathroom.
Miles frowned. He had a bad feeling.
“Xiao Yu?”
“Tang Yu?”
“Sweetheart?”
He anxiously turned the doorknob, only to find that Tang Yu had locked the door.
His face darkened as he slammed hard against the door. “Tang Yu?! What’s wrong? Tang Yu? Please answer me if you hear me! Let me know that you’re okay! Tang Yu?!”
