A whirlwind marriage leads to doting affection; the husband pampers her every night.

Meeting Mo Ze's somewhat sharp gaze, Shen Nian hurriedly explained, "Uncle, I, I was going to help you take off your coat..."

She thought he had woken up, so she waited quietly, not daring to make a move.

Mo Ze looked at the person in front of him, his sharp eyes slowly becoming hazy. He slowly released Shen Nian's wrist, as if he had completely relaxed, and then closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Shen Nian watched him close his eyes again, and after a while, she gently leaned forward again. This time, after confirming that Mo Ze was really asleep, she began to take off his clothes.

She hesitated for a moment when taking off her pants, then closed her eyes to unbuckle her belt.

After half an hour of effort, I finally managed to take off my coat and pants.

Shen Nian blushed as she covered Mo Ze with the blanket and sat on the floor by the bed, breathing heavily.

After calming her heartbeat, she got up and went to the bathroom, where she got a warm towel and wiped Moze's face. It seemed like she was finally done.

She didn't know if Moze would vomit when he was drunk. She remembered that her father used to vomit all over himself when he drank too much, and he would talk loudly and excitedly, which was completely different from his usual self.

The older man... seems quite quiet...

Shen Nian stood by the bed with a towel in her hand, and glanced at the person sleeping soundly on the bed.

After putting the towel back in the bathroom, she returned to the room and sat down again on the floor next to the bed, staying by Moze's side.

Moze woke up in the middle of the night.

He felt a bit of a headache and thirst. He sat up and rubbed his forehead. He was slightly taken aback when he saw that his coat had been taken off and that he was only wearing his underwear under the blanket.

He thought to himself, "It was probably Xiao Wu who helped him get undressed." He knew Lu Yan had gone to the bar to pick him up.

After a few seconds of stunned silence, he came to his senses, lifted the covers, and prepared to get out of bed to get a drink of water.

Turning my head, I saw Shen Nian lying on the edge of the bed, fast asleep with her eyes closed.

Moze was stunned.

Last night... it wasn't a dream...

It really is this girl.

Mo Ze stared blankly at Shen Nian's sleeping face.

Her small, delicate face rested against her arm, with long eyelashes and rosy lips. She had a refined face with delicate features, exuding a contradictory aura of both innocence and allure...

Mo Ze stared blankly for a while, then got out of bed and gently carried the person to his own bed.

After covering the person with a blanket, he left the room to get a drink of water and take a shower.

When I returned to the room, the person on the bed had simply turned over, lying on their side, and was still sleeping soundly.

Moze had taken a shower and changed into his pajamas, but he was still slightly drunk and his head was still spinning.

He walked to the other side of the bed, got in, and lay down, quickly falling asleep again...

When Shen Nian woke up groggily, she thought she was on her small bed in the dormitory, holding her little pig pillow in her arms. She hugged it tightly and rubbed her head against it, trying to find a way to stay in bed.

Suddenly, a hoarse male voice came from above, "Don't move."

Shen Nian froze, then suddenly opened her eyes, fully waking up.

She sat on the floor watching over Moze last night, worried that he might get drunk and want to throw up or something. Later, she got so sleepy that she lay down on the edge of the bed to take a nap.

She... how did she end up sleeping in the bed...?

Shen Nian looked down at herself, clinging to Mo Ze like an octopus, and was terrified.

In a frantic rush to get up, the more anxious you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes.

She hurriedly scrambled to her feet, only to stumble back down, her small hand landing squarely on the spot where Moze had been agitated that morning...

Moze hadn't expected this turn of events; caught off guard, he let out a muffled groan of pain, "Ugh~"

Shen Nian realized what she had touched, and her face immediately turned bright red.

She froze for a few seconds, then suddenly jumped up from the bed.

Like a child who has done something wrong, he stood by the bed with his head down, saying, "Uncle, you, you're awake."

Mo Ze nodded slightly, subtly pulling the blanket over his lower body.

“You got drunk last night, and Mr. Lu had something to do, so he called and asked me to come over and take care of you…” Shen Nian felt she needed to explain, otherwise it would be inappropriate for her to suddenly appear at the uncle’s house.

Mo Ze knew, of course, that it was Xiao Wu who called Shen Nian over; otherwise, how could she have come in?

Seeing that Mo Ze didn't speak, Shen Nian remembered that he seemed quite cold towards her the day before, as if he didn't want to see her.

Thinking of this, Shen Nian hurriedly said goodbye, "Well, now that you're awake, I'll head back first."

Then he turned around and left the bedroom.

Mo Ze didn't try to stop her. He sat on the bed, listening to the sound of the door opening and closing outside, and looked down at his lower body, which was covered by a thin blanket.

She gave a self-deprecating smile.

How could I have fallen for such a young girl?

-

After leaving the apartment, Shen Nian ran straight to the subway station. Even after taking the subway back to her dorm, she couldn't stop thinking about the accidental bump she'd made that morning...

Then I couldn't help but blush and my heart started racing.

The childish act of holding hands with Chu Yunyi in the past is completely different from the direct physical contact they have now.

She wasn't a teenage girl anymore, so naturally she knew what it was.

It turns out, men really do...

Shen Nian shook her head, trying to stop herself from thinking about these random things.

It's as if I'm a sexually frustrated woman.

She pulled a textbook from the bookshelf, opened it, and started reading, trying to quickly forget what had happened that morning.

For some reason, the more she tried to forget, the clearer the memories seemed to become. She held the book but couldn't concentrate on a single word; the text and symbols all seemed to transform into the old man's face...

Shen Nian put down her book, got up and went to the bathroom. She washed her face with cold water and finally felt a little more awake.

Someone like that middle-aged man, at the very top of the pyramid, is not someone she can just fantasize about.

Being willing to help her get a marriage certificate so that she can smoothly obtain the shares left by her mother is already incredibly lucky.

Sitting back down at her desk, Shen Nian began to read seriously this time.

She's studying so hard now not because she plans to pursue further studies or take the postgraduate entrance exam, but simply because she wants to solidify her professional knowledge so that she can find a good job to support herself when she leaves school and enters the workforce.

From now on, I'll be all alone...

The engagement invitation sent by Shen Ximan was still on the table, its gold lettering exuding luxury and elegance.

Shen Nian caught a glimpse of the invitation out of the corner of her eye, put down the book in her hand, and picked up the invitation.

Upon opening the invitation, Shen Nian was greeted by an intimate photo of Chu Yunyi and Shen Ximan. She knew that Shen Ximan must have deliberately included it for her to see.

Looking at the photo of the two of them, Shen Nian felt very calm, as if she were an insignificant person.

She stared at it for a moment, then closed the invitation.

The engagement party went by so fast...
