Love So Sweet

His mind was filled with the paper bag that he found in his wife’s bag early this morning.

Bai Qi could not deny that he was looking forward to seeing Zhang Li Xue put on the gift that Fang Su Jin gave her.

However, after they returned from their trip, Zhang Li Xue has been busy calling home and speaking to his little sister.

Bai Xi Xi might be thousands of miles away, but she would still be able to steal his wife’s attention away. Seeing the warm look on Zhang Li Xue’s face made him unwilling to disturb them.

The little girl was curious about their trip to T Country. Meanwhile, Zhang Li Xue wanted to know more about Bai Xi Xi’s studies at her new school.

Bai Qi seemed to realize that Zhang Li Xue would always worry about Bai Xi Xi’s school life and the new friends she made.

After that one time that Zhang Li Xue had to visit Bai Xi Xi’s former school and found out how she was mistreated because of her status, Zhang Li Xue has been concerned about the little girl. It seemed that she was afraid that something like that would happen again.

Bai Qi was quite grateful to his wife for this.

.....

He watched her for a while before he went into the bathroom to take his shower.

When he was finally out, his wife already ended her call with his sister.

Zhang Li Xue went over to his side and pulled him to sit down on the sofa. While she was helping him to dry his hair, Zhang Li Xue continued to tell him about his conversation with Bai Xi Xi.

Hearing his wife’s chattering voice made him relaxed.

Once she was done, Zhang Li Xue tossed the towel aside and leaned over to kiss his cheek. “Then, I should go and take my shower first.”

Bai Qi watched as he carried a few clothing items in her arms. His eyes darkened as he wondered if his wife was carrying that gift from Fang Su Jin.

The bathroom door closed and Bai Qi waited until he could hear the sound of water before he walked over to his wife’s suitcase.

His heartbeat accelerated when he could not see the paper bag on top of her clothes.

Suddenly, Bai Qi was looking forward to his wife coming out of the bathroom.

He wondered if Zhang Li Xue would make a surprise for him.

Bai Qi stood up and started to pace around the room. He took a few deep breaths to calm down. Then, he decided to start playing with his phone to divert his attention.

He thought that he was able to calm down. But once he heard the water stop in the bathroom, Bai Qi started to grow anxious again.

The door was pushed open and a pair of long legs walked out.

Bai Qi raised his head, but the sight in front of him was not what he expected.

Zhang Li Xue walked out in her usual night dress while drying her hair. “Hubby, help me to dry my hair.” She took the hair dryer on the table and waited for him to approach.

Bai Qi stood behind her as he helped his wife to dry her hair. From his position, Bai Qi could peek underneath her clothes. However, he was disappointed when he realized that his wife was not wearing that particular lingerie.

But he could not see the paper bag in her suitcase. Then, did she put them somewhere else?

After her hair was dried, Zhang Li Xue turned around and kissed him on the cheek. “Hubby, thank you.” Then, Zhang Li Xe let out a big yawn. Her eyes were teary and her eyes were slanted.

A sigh escaped him. The disappointment gradually faded away.

Bai Qi thought that perhaps, his wife was too tired after playing around the beach. It was understandable if she did not want to wear the gift that Fang Su Jin had given her.

He suppressed that feeling and decided that perhaps, he would be able to see his wife in the outfit in a few days. They were going to stay in T Country for a few days. His wife would definitely put that outfit on one of these days.

Seeing that she was too tired, Bai Qi decided that she did not want to disturb her. They both went to bed and sleep without doing anything.

Bai Qi waited for a few days. However, the outfit that Fang Su Jin had given her was still nowhere to be seen.

The paper bag was not in her suitcase. He began to wonder if his wife had thrown the outfit away.

On that day, the couple walked around the street to buy some souvenirs in T Country. After playing around and visiting a few attractions places in T Country, they both decided that they should relax a little bit.

After buying what they wanted, the couple returned to their hotel again. Then, Zhang Li Xue began to sort out the items they bought.

They headed out to have their dinner before they returned to their hotel room again.

Bai Qi looked at his wife who was lazing around on the sofa and frowned. The two of them were going to check out of the hotel in two days, but the lingerie had not made its debut.

As if noticing that someone was watching her, Zhang Li Xue finally raised her head. Seeing Bai Qi made her smile. “What are you standing there for? Come over and sit with me.”

Bai Qi walked over to his wife’s side and sat down beside his wife. He trapped her between the sofa and looked her in the eyes. “Li Xue, I have a question for you.”

Zhang Li Xue looked back at him in puzzlement. “What do you want to ask?”

“I saw that paper bag in your suitcase. The one that Fang Su Jin gave you at the airport.” By this time, the sensible Doctor Bai no longer has his patience.

Her eyes widened in surprise, wondering how did her husband know about Fang Su Jin’s gift.

“Are you not going to try and see if it’s fit?” His eyes darkened and his voice was a little hoarse.
