Under the Gentle Moonlight, Su Qingge Opens Her Eyes~~

Midnight, exactly 12 o'clock.

Hearing Lin Xuan mention turning off the lights to sleep.

Su Qingge appeared to be peacefully asleep, but in reality, her mind was in turmoil.

This was the first time in her life lying on the same bed as a man.

Even though she had been through many ups and downs in life.

At this moment, her palms were sweating from nervousness.

Click~~

Hearing the sound of the lights going off, Su Qingge's breath caught, and her cheeks instantly flushed red.

Luckily, the room was pitch black, and Lin Xuan didn't notice. He simply lifted the blanket cautiously.

He... got in, right?

Sensing Lin Xuan slipping under the covers and lying beside her.

Su Qingge's heartbeat instantly accelerated, feeling as if her heart had leaped into her throat.

She could feel how close Lin Xuan was, their shoulders touching, and she could even hear his heavy breathing...

…..

'Has this moment finally come?'

'Will Lin Xuan behave himself? Or will he do something to me...'

'Ah! What am I thinking? Didn't he already promise that before I woke up, he wouldn't do anything strange?'

'Besides, haven't I already prepared myself? This is what I owe him.'

'If Lin Xuan really wants it... then I'll fulfill his wish...'

'But I heard the first time really hurts... I wonder if that's true... I'm a little scared...'

…..

Su Qingge's thoughts were running wild. She kept reminding herself to stay calm, relax, and not overthink—just let things happen naturally.

Yet, she couldn't help but focus all her attention on the young man beside her.

She thought Lin Xuan would do something to her...

But to her surprise, after saying "Good night," he completely fell silent.

Soon.

She heard the steady rhythm of breathing.

Lin Xuan seemed... to have already fallen asleep???

Wait, he just fell asleep like that?!

On their wedding night.

I, a stunning beauty, am lying right next to you, and you're just sleeping?! Not doing anything?!

She couldn't tell if she was feeling disappointed or something else—she just felt inexplicably down.

But if Lin Xuan knew what she was thinking...

He would definitely roll his eyes and think to himself:

"Women are just so contradictory."

"If I actually did something, you'd say you're not ready. If I don't, you feel uncertain. Tsk~~"

"A woman's heart is indeed as unpredictable as the depths of the ocean!"

In fact, the reason Lin Xuan didn't do anything inappropriate.

Was mainly because...

Tonight was, after all, their first night sharing a bed. There was no need to rush—there was plenty of time in the future.

And besides, Su Qingge was still technically in a vegetative state.

He wasn't desperate enough to disregard her feelings and forcefully take her.

Although she probably wouldn't refuse.

But that would undoubtedly leave a bad memory and ruin his image.

There was plenty of time in the future. It wouldn't be too late then...

A fragrant, beautiful girl was like a delicious dish—she had to be savored slowly, bite by bite, to truly appreciate her flavor!

Ψ(￣?￣)Ψ.

Besides, just sleeping on the same bed with Su Qingge...

Was already a significant breakthrough in their relationship.

Looking at the steadily increasing intimacy points in his mind.

Lin Xuan couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile.

Being able to earn a large amount of "passive income" just by lying down like this was truly...

Too awesome!!!

He could almost see a future where...

He had accumulated enough intimacy points to transform into an invincible Immortal Emperor, dominating the entire universe.

And just like that...

Holding onto his beautiful fantasies of the future, Lin Xuan slowly drifted into slumber...

Quiet~~

In the pitch-dark room, apart from the steady breathing, one could hear a pin drop.

Outside the window.

The bright moonlight slanted into the room.

It happened to shine upon the red wedding bed, illuminating Su Qingge's stunning face, making her look even more breathtaking.

Suddenly.

As her eyelashes fluttered slightly, the girl lying on the wedding bed, just like that, naturally...

Slowly opened her eyes!

That pair of bright, beautiful eyes finally, for the first time since she became a vegetative patient, bloomed into the darkness.

'The moonlight... it's so gentle...'

At this moment.

Bathed in the sacred moonlight, the girl's world seemed to be relit, her pupils filled with overwhelming joy.

She felt the moonlight hitting her eyes, bringing a stimulating sensation, and her eyeballs excitedly darted around.

Everything she saw before her.

Was no longer an endless void of darkness, but a world filled with colors.

She saw the red furniture in the room, the red balloons hanging from the ceiling, and the twinkling stars outside the window...

Everything, which might seem ordinary in the eyes of others.

But in the eyes of Su Qingge, who had lost and regained her sight, it all appeared so vivid and beautiful.

She began carefully observing every detail, wanting to etch every bit of what she saw deeply into her memory...

…..

'I can see! I can finally see again!!!'

'I never imagined... that one day I could wake up and see this beautiful world again.'

'Back when I first became a vegetative patient...'

'I was truly in utter despair, thinking I would spend the rest of my life trapped in endless darkness and fear.

'But now...'

'It's so wonderful... to witness the beauty and wonders of this world once more...'

…..

Thinking back to when she first fell into a coma, Su Qingge had countless times wished for someone to come and end her life.

Anyone would do...

As long as they could free her from this nightmare, she was willing to pay any price.

Fortunately, one day, the man who brought her hope appeared—but he hadn't come to kill her. He'd come to save her.

Su Qingge would never forget the moment she first met him...

He lifted her small hand, clasped it gently within his own, bringing her warmth, and spoke those words...

"Qingge, I came to see you."

"My name is Lin Xuan, your future husband."

Recalling the past, the girl's gaze softened.

She still remembered that when she first heard these words, she scoffed internally and dismissed Lin Xuan with disdain.

She thought he was just as despicable as the rumors said.

She believed he had only married into the Su family to mooch off them and win her grandfather's favor...

But now...

Su Qingge couldn't help but blush.

She had to admit that her past self had been too judgmental and superficial.

People who have never experienced hell will never understand the preciousness of an ordinary life.

Even though she still couldn't move her body.

But just being able to see this colorful world again filled her heart with pure joy.

Unconsciously.

Tears welled up at the corners of the girl's eyes, and she silently cried.

The crystal-clear tears, under the soft moonlight, shimmered with a glow of happiness.

Then, they rolled down her beautiful cheeks and landed on the red wedding pillow, dampening the embroidered double happiness character.

Su Qingge was truly grateful to the heavens for this miracle.

Of course...

The one she should be most grateful to was...

The young man sleeping beside her right now.

If not for him, she would never have been able to grasp this miracle.

Since she still couldn't move or turn her head.

Su Qingge could only do her best to move her eyes and look to her right. →_→

With the dim moonlight from the window and the corner of her vision.

For the first time since she had fallen into a coma...

She finally got to see the man she had spent so much time with yet had never actually met...

At this moment, Lin Xuan was still unaware that his wife had opened her eyes and was constantly staring at him. He was still lost in his dreams of becoming an Immortal Emperor.

'Lin Xuan... he's actually quite handsome...'

Under the gentle moonlight.

Lin Xuan lay there peacefully, like a sculpture.

The moonlight gently caressed his face, highlighting his strong features.

His thick, well-defined eyebrows were like two dark arrows, slanting toward his temples, making him look heroic and dashing.

His eyes were tightly shut, and his long eyelashes were like two little fans, gently resting on his eyelids, casting faint shadows as if hiding countless secrets.

His straight, high nose was like a mountain peak rising from the ground, exuding nobility and confidence.

His lips curled up slightly, as if even in his sleep, he carried a faint, almost imperceptible smile, revealing a hint of warmth and kindness.

…..

Su Qingge widened her eyes and stared intently at Lin Xuan's handsome face.

Even though she had never been picky about men's looks, beauty was something everyone appreciated.

Instinctively, the girl gaze was instantly drawn to Lin Xuan's sleeping face...

There was a unique temperament in it—both the sunshine and vigor of youth and the maturity and steadiness of a man.

This kind of aura made people want to get closer to him, to understand him, yet hesitate to disturb his peaceful slumber.

Especially under the moonlight...

Lin Xuan's fair skin was as white as snow, as delicate as a jade sculpture, emitting a fragile yet stunning beauty that made one want to reach out and touch him, but afraid of waking up this sleeping prince...

…..

'(〃＞皿＜) Damn it! Lin Xuan... was this how handsome you were?!'

'Who was it?! Who told me that Lin Xuan looked ordinary? That's absolute nonsense!'

'He's obviously the most handsome man I've ever seen!'

'The only regret is that I can't see what he looks like with his eyes open...'

…..

Su Qingge kept shifting her gaze, using her peripheral vision to sneak glances at Lin Xuan's face.

No matter how she looked, it was as if one word was carved onto his face...

Handsome!!!

So handsome!!!!!!!

Too handsome!!!!!!!!

…..

'Hehe, I wonder what kind of expression Lin Xuan will have when he wakes up tomorrow and finds out I can open my eyes?'

'He'll definitely be shocked, right?'

'Just thinking about it is fun~~'

'Suddenly, I really want the morning to come sooner!'

'Before, my world was nothing but darkness. I had no concept of time at all.'

'But from now on, I can look forward to every sunrise, too. (^▽^)'

…..

The night deepened.

With anticipation for the sunrise, Su Qingge slowly closed her eyes.

Two minutes later.

She suddenly opened her big, sparkling eyes again. It wasn't because she was reluctant to sleep now that she could finally see.

It was simply because she...

Had insomnia!!!

The long night stretched on. In the past, her world was only darkness, and she was always drowsy.

So, it never really mattered whether she could sleep or not.

After all, she had no choice but to rest with her eyes closed.

But now...

She wasn't sure if it was because she was too excited tonight, and her adrenaline was running high.

But on her first night after waking from her vegetative state, she had insomnia...

Forcing her eyes shut...

Then opening them again...

Closing, opening, closing, opening...

After repeating this process multiple times, Su Qingge finally gave up struggling and just kept shifting her gaze around.

In the end, her peripheral vision locked onto Lin Xuan's face. Blushing, she kept sneaking glances at him.

~~( ﹁ ﹁ ) ~~~

Her thoughts began to wander freely...

She suddenly realized that Lin Xuan was exactly like the image she had in childhood...

Of her ideal Prince Charming...

Handsome.

Talented—he can sing, tell stories.

He has helped her family overcome numerous crises.

He stays by her side every day, taking care of her gently.

,,,,,

Everything about him perfectly matched her childhood ideals of a perfect partner...

Originally, as she grew older, Su Qingge had long abandoned such unrealistic fantasies.

She didn't believe that a perfect man like this could actually exist in this world.

Especially after experiencing so many hardships in life...

She had come to understand deep truths like "Relying on others is worse than relying on yourself" and "Trusting men is as likely as a pig climbing a tree."

So, she grew up.

No longer like a naive girl hoping for a prince to come when things were hard.

She was determined to be her own Prince Charming, her own savior...

But fate...

Sometimes worked in such strange and mysterious ways.

Before she became a vegetative patient, she had always looked down on all men.

At that time, she could never have imagined that one day she would be married to a man and sharing the same bed with him.

Especially since this man had entered her life through a ritual marriage meant to bring her luck...

During her time in a coma, Su Qingge sometimes wondered—had this misfortune actually turned out to be a blessing?

If she hadn't become a vegetative patient...

Her grandfather wouldn't have brought Lin Xuan into their family, and she would never have had these warm moments.

If she hadn't become a vegetative patient...

Perhaps her final destiny would have been a lifetime of loneliness.

But now...

She found herself reluctant to let this feeling go—even thinking she didn't want to wake up too quickly.

Because once she fully woke up...

She would have to face many responsibilities, and by then... she would no longer have control over her own fate...

And maybe... she would never again be able to experience such warm, peaceful days...
