Chapter 15: Wearing His Shirt

The door opened with a click as the password was entered.

Huo Mingze pulled Shen Modi into the house.

After closing the door, he looked at her with burning eyes.

Shen Modi met Huo Mingze's gaze, and her cheeks instantly flushed. She quickly lowered her head.

Immediately, her chin was lifted.

Huo Mingze's kiss landed on her lips.

He still loved Yao Yutong, but his wife was Shen Modi.

She was the woman in front of him who was striving desperately for her relatives.

All of his future would be shared with her.

He would also try to love her.

His kiss deepened.

Modi was a bit at a loss.

Today, her mood had been greatly shaken.

She had always thought that she had forgotten Gu Tianxi and that once-heartbreaking and agonizing relationship.

When she saw Gu Tianxi today, she found that she was still deeply hurt.

Perhaps, it was because of unwillingness.

Unwilling to be broken up with, unwilling to be misunderstood, unwilling to be wrongly accused.

Most of all, she was unwilling that he hadn't even been willing to give her a chance to explain.

Years of relationship couldn't withstand a few photos.

So, when he said goodbye on the phone three years ago, she didn't say a word of pleading. She just said "Okay" and hung up the phone in a hurry.

She didn't let him know that after hanging up the phone, she crouched on the ground and cried her eyes out.

She quickly moved away from Meicheng and started a new life.

Unexpectedly, they would meet again.

Having just been caught in the rain, her whole body was cold, but strangely, her heart didn't feel as stuffy.

She reached out, put her arms around Huo Mingze's neck, and stood on her tiptoes slightly.

He had said that day that she could rely on him, that he was her husband.

They had also said that once they got the marriage certificate, it was a lifetime commitment.

Sensing Shen Modi's response, Huo Mingze's kiss deepened even more.

After a while, he let her go, looked at her with gentle eyes, and gently stroked her cheek with his thumb as he smiled and said, "We have a lifetime to slowly cultivate our feelings. Go take a shower so you don't catch a cold. You use the bathroom in the master bedroom, and I'll use the guest bathroom."

"Okay..." Shen Modi suddenly felt troubled.

Now that her whole body was wet, taking a shower was no problem, but she didn't have any clothes to change into.

Huo Mingze took a look at Modi's clothes and said, "Wear mine for now. Come on!"

He walked into the master bedroom.

Shen Modi followed him in.

This house was like a tiny dwelling to Huo Mingze, small and ordinary.

But to Shen Modi, it was already a very big house.

She began to feel a sense of inferiority in her heart.

Huo Mingze was truly excellent in every aspect, especially with the house being so clean and tidy.

But then she thought that she could pay the mortgage together with Huo Mingze in the future.

Thinking like this made her feel a bit more at ease.

Huo Mingze took a new shirt for Modi: "Wear this for now. You can leave the clothes you take off at the door later. I'll put them in the washing machine, and you can wear them again after they're washed. Then we'll go buy you some clothes."

He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and he had just learned how to use the washing machine.

"No, no, I'll come out and wash them myself later." Shen Modi immediately said.

She couldn't possibly let Huo Mingze do her laundry for her.

"Okay." Huo Mingze replied gently.

Shen Modi hugged Huo Mingze's shirt and went into the bathroom.

Just as she closed the door, Huo Mingze knocked on it.

Shen Modi jumped in fright.

Huo Mingze said through the door, "Honey, there are new towels and other items in the bathroom cabinet, and there are slippers underneath. The women's ones are new."

The reason was that when they went on the blind date, they had already decided to get married, so Lu Assistant had bought two sets of many things.

They didn't buy clothes for Modi because at that time, they didn't know who the person they were going on a blind date with was, and they didn't know what size clothes to buy.

"Okay, okay." Modi immediately replied.

Hearing Huo Mingze's footsteps walking away, she let out a sigh of relief.

She then pursed her lips and smiled. They were already married. What was there to be coy about? Even if he really wanted to do something, it would be understandable.

She was freezing cold, so she quickly took off her wet clothes and turned on the shower.

In just a moment, she felt the steaming hot water pouring down on her body. The heat dissipated the cold from her body and also diluted her sad mood.

She became optimistic again.

Her father had been saved by Huo Mingze's good friend, and her younger brother had successfully had a cochlear implant.

Maybe her father would really get better and be able to accompany them for a long time.

Her younger brother would be able to hear sounds in a month...

After taking a bath and getting dressed, she was in a quandary again.

There was only the shirt.

She didn't dare to change her underwear. Fortunately, it wasn't completely soaked, so she would just make do with it for now.

She rubbed her hair with a towel until it stopped dripping, and then she quickly hugged her clothes and went out to wash them.

Huo Mingze had just come out of the guest bathroom when he saw Modi hugging her clothes and going out.

She was wearing his white shirt, and her two fair and straight legs were in full view.

He knew that she was beautiful and had a good figure.

But looking at her now, she was both pure and alluring. The words "a lotus emerging from water" could hardly describe her beauty.

His eyes became heated again, and he said, "I've also taken off my clothes. Can we wash them together?"

He had blow-dried his hair simply, making it fluffy and natural, adding a touch of handsomeness and gentleness.

"Okay, of course." Modi crouched slightly to open the washing machine, put her clothes in, and then stood up and said, "Are your clothes in the guest bathroom? I'll go get them."

She was wearing his shirt and was bare-legged, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

As she passed by Huo Mingze, he reached out and put his arm around her waist, pulling her into his arms.

She could fully sense his breath and the change in his body.

Her heart was pounding like a drum, beating nervously. She didn't dare to look at him.

"Don't be afraid of me. I'll be responsible for your life for a lifetime." Huo Mingze looked down at Shen Modi, his eyes gentle and profound.

Perhaps it had nothing to do with love, but he knew that he wanted to do something.

"I know, I know you're very good." He had been helping her all along, and she was aware of it.

Seeing the gratitude in Modi's eyes, Huo Mingze reached out and stroked her face.

He saw the emotion and restraint in her eyes, which made him feel that if he did something to her now, it would be taking advantage of her.

It didn't matter. They hadn't known each other for long and had no feelings yet. It was understandable.

He had a lifetime to slowly cultivate feelings with her.

He smiled and let her go.

Modi immediately said, "I'll go get the clothes."

She hurried to the guest bathroom to get his clothes.

Huo Mingze sat on the sofa and took out his phone to make a call, arranging for someone to send clothes over.

He owned ordinary clothing chain stores and haute couture brands.

Afraid that Modi would feel pressured, he asked for ordinary clothes to be sent over.

The price was within a thousand yuan.

He roughly estimated Modi's size and asked for five sets to be sent, including underwear.

Modi carried Huo Mingze's clothes out and put them in the washing machine. Then she immediately felt embarrassed and went to pour herself a drink of water, and also poured a glass for Huo Mingze.

"Come here!" Huo Mingze said.

Modi: "!"

She was so panicked.

She was terrified that what was going to happen next would be something indescribable.

Although they were husband and wife, although she knew that it would be coy to refuse, although she knew that it would happen sooner or later, she really wasn't ready.

She took a deep breath and still went over, sitting nervously not too far from Huo Mingze.

Huo Mingze looked at Shen Modi helplessly and said, "The hair dryer is out of reach. Sit a bit closer."

Somehow, he had already brought the hair dryer over.

Seeing the hair dryer, Modi was filled with gratitude.
