Wait, how did I become like this? This look in my eyes, how is it different from those Harlots? For a moment, even Lin Wanqing was somewhat stunned. She had always been very serious before; after all, she was President Lin, so she unconsciously carried a kind of Authority.
But she found that when she looked at Xia Ming, there was actually a hint of Seduction. Even she couldn't figure out what was going on.
Instantly, Lin Wanqing felt her small face heat up, as if she Had a fever. Seeing Lin Wanqing's gradually reddening face, Xia Ming's heart Suddenly accelerated. Xia Ming hadn't expected that a Shy and bashful Lin Wanqing could be so Alluring. Lin Wanqing exuded an air of Mature charm from head to toe.
This year, Lin Wanqing was about the same age as Xia Ming, both twenty-four. All along, Lin Wanqing had never known what Falling in love felt like. The same was true for Xia Ming; ever since the incident last time, he no longer knew the taste of love.
This time, Xia Ming knew he had a new goal.
"What's your name?" Xia Ming suddenly asked.
Seeing Xia Ming suddenly turn serious, Lin Wanqing was somewhat puzzled. Why did Xia Ming suddenly become so serious? For some reason, seeing the serious Xia Ming, she suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of security.
"Lin... Lin Wanqing," Lin Wanqing said, Shy and bashful.
"I've decided, President Lin," Xia Ming said solemnly.
"Decided what?" Lin Wanqing asked, somewhat confused.
"I want to be your man, and I want you to be my Wifey," Xia Ming declared Domineeringly.
Swish.
Lin Wanqing froze. She never imagined Xia Ming would Confess to her here. Instantly, she felt as if a Little deer bumping wildly inside her heart, making her heart pound rapidly. Lin Wanqing lowered her head, looking just like a shy young girl.
"Hmph, it's not that easy to be this young lady's man," Lin Wanqing Unaccountably blurted out.
The moment these words left her mouth, even Lin Wanqing froze on the spot.
How... how could I do this? When did I become so Shameless? I... I actually... actually said such things to him... This... this... is too embarrassing!
Lin Wanqing now wished she could find a Crack in the ground to crawl into. She really couldn't figure out why, after encountering Xia Ming, she seemed to have become a completely different person. She was no longer the feared President Lin; instead, she had taken on the Coy manner of a little woman.
"Hahaha, Yay! From now on, I have a Wifey too! This is great, just great! It's been so long since I've been this happy!"
Xia Ming was overjoyed today. To be honest, even he hadn't expected that after meeting Lin Wanqing only twice, he would like her so much. He always felt that all of this was somehow Fatedly arranged by heaven.
That feeling that had been Sealed away for so long had finally returned, making Xia Ming extremely happy.
"Wifey, that old guy didn't do anything to you, right? Do you need your man here to cripple him?" Xia Ming asked happily.
Lin Wanqing Gave Xia Ming a look askance and said, "This is a Law-based society now. If you do that, you could easily get into trouble. Don't be Impulsive."
"Mm, okay, I'll listen to Wifey," Xia Ming said happily.
"Hmph."
Lin Wanqing quickly snorted, Muttering with pouting lips, "I'm not your Wifey right now. If you want to pursue this young lady, you have to satisfy me. If I'm not satisfied, I can Kick you out at any time. Let me tell you, this young lady's standards are very high. Only men with Real skill will catch my eye."
For some reason, Lin Wanqing seemed to have Cast caution to the wind, even managing to say such things. Compared to the usual President Lin, she was Like two different people.
"Hehe, hehe."
Hearing this, Xia Ming just smiled.
Real skill?
What is real skill? He couldn't boast about other things, but when it came to skill, he believed no one in the entire world could compare to him. Even if some people had real skill, it would be in one or two fields at most. But who was he? He was Xia Ming! What did he have? He had the Almighty System! What was the Almighty System for? Forging All-around People! With the Almighty System, who would dare say anyone else was more outstanding than him?
Lin Wanqing's words were practically describing him!
Wasn't this proof that he would be her husband in the future?
"You... you... what are you smiling about?" Lin Wanqing asked shyly.
"Wifey, I suddenly realized a problem," Xia Ming said with a mysterious smile.
Hearing this, Lin Wanqing suddenly became curious: "What problem?"
"It's about what you just said," Xia Ming said.
"What I said? Is there a problem with what I said?" Lin Wanqing asked, somewhat confused.
"Back then, Zixia¹ also said that her Sweetheart must be an Unrivaled hero, and one day he would step on a Seven-colored auspicious cloud to Marry her," Xia Ming explained.
"What does that have to do with me?" Lin Wanqing became increasingly confused.
"Of course it has something to do with you, and it's a huge connection!" Xia Ming said very proudly. "Do you know? In my heart, you are Zixia, and I am ZhiZunbao²!"
"Get lost..." Hearing this, the intelligent Lin Wanqing instantly understood. So, just now I said my man must have real skill, and Xia Ming beat around the bush for so long just to say that he is that man with real skill!
For some reason, if anyone else had joked like this, she would have long since Gone berserk. But facing Xia Ming, she didn't know why, but deep down, she actually felt a trace of being Secretly delighted, even a little excited. Even she hadn't expected this.
"Ouch!"
At this moment, Lin Wanqing moved her foot, and suddenly, a pang of pain made her Stagger. With a cry of alarm, her body Tilted forward. Just then, Lin Wanqing saw the broken glass on the floor. Instantly, her Face drained of color. She thought, "It's over! Am I going to be Disfigured like this? What will happen if I'm disfigured?"
For a moment, Lin Wanqing closed her eyes in Despair.
If her face was ruined, what would she do? Would he still... still... Instantly, countless possibilities flooded her mind.
The sudden situation almost caught even Xia Ming off guard. Immediately, Whoosh!, Xia Ming Darted out.
Thud.
Xia Ming's body hit the floor, and at that moment, a Soft form landed on top of him. He had happily become a Human cushion. Xia Ming suddenly cried out, "Ouch!"
Lin Wanqing had thought she was done for. Just as she closed her eyes, awaiting the arrival of her tragic fate, she suddenly found that underneath her was soft. This made Lin Wanqing immediately think, "Wait? Shouldn't I be disfigured? Shouldn't I be in pain? How come it suddenly feels so soft? Just like falling into someone's arms."
"Wifey, if you don't get up soon, your husband here is going to be crushed to death by you! You little Fat pig, you're too heavy!"
A voice sounded from beneath Lin Wanqing. Hearing the familiar voice, Lin Wanqing immediately opened her eyes. Seeing Xia Ming cushioning her from below, Lin Wanqing panicked, "Xia Ming, Xia Ming, are you okay?"
Xia Ming looked at Lin Wanqing with a wry smile and said, "If you don't get up soon, I really won't be okay."
Under normal circumstances, Xia Ming might have been very willing to stay like this. But... beneath his back were lots of Glass shards! These shards were Embedded in his back, piercing his flesh. Right now, he was in Agonizing pain; how could he think about anything else? Fortunately, his body had been strengthened by the Body Strengthening Liquid and was Different from ordinary people. Although the glass pierced his back, it didn't cause too much damage, just a sharp pain.
"Yes, yes, I'll get up right now." Lin Wanqing also realized that lying on top of Xia Ming was somewhat Inappropriate. But when she tried to stand up, her foot hurt, and she immediately fell back onto Xia Ming. Xia Ming, who had just started to get up, took a sharp breath as Lin Wanqing pressed down on him again.
"Hiss..."
Xia Ming felt a Burning hot pain across his back. The pain made Xia Ming suck in a cold breath.
"Sorry, sorry, I didn't do it on purpose!" Lin Wanqing panicked for a moment. Xia Ming supported Lin Wanqing, trying to get up first. At this moment, quite a few pieces of glass were embedded in his back. Although his body had been significantly enhanced by the Body Strengthening Liquid, it couldn't withstand such Torment.
"It's okay, it's okay. Don't move for now." Xia Ming supported Lin Wanqing with his backhand. When he looked towards Lin Wanqing's Ankle, he saw it was Red and swollen. Xia Ming then picked Lin Wanqing up. During this process, Lin Wanqing cried out in surprise, somewhat At a loss.
"Don't move! Your ankle is injured. Moving randomly will only worsen the injury."
Xia Ming's somewhat grave voice came, making Lin Wanqing Feel relieved considerably. Xia Ming held Lin Wanqing. Lin Wanqing looked at Xia Ming's serious eyes, and for some reason, she became somewhat Lost in thought. Xia Ming placed Lin Wanqing on the sofa.
He picked up Lin Wanqing's foot. At this moment, the pain brought Lin Wanqing back to her senses. When she saw Xia Ming holding her Exquisite little foot, she wanted to pull it back, but before she could, Xia Ming's voice came again.
"Don't move."
Hearing Xia Ming's voice, Lin Wanqing instantly didn't dare to move. Lin Wanqing looked at Xia Ming. Seeing Xia Ming's solemn expression, Lin Wanqing's heart started racing again, even forgetting the pain in her ankle.
After Xia Ming took off Lin Wanqing's small black high heel, her Dainty little foot was revealed. Today, Lin Wanqing wasn't wearing Stockings. Even without stockings, those Beautiful legs were countless times more beautiful than those who wore them.
Xia Ming looked at Lin Wanqing's exquisite five toes, like Little chubby dolls, and suddenly felt that Lin Wanqing's feet were so perfect. Seeing Xia Ming staring at her feet like that, Lin Wanqing blushed furiously and lowered her head.
She thought secretly: "That rascal, how can he stare at my... there?"
