Within Your Eyes
It was Yang Chenâs first time seeing Lin Ruoxi run. Since it was rather warm at home, she wore a rather loose white cotton t-shirt. As she jogged, her black hair bounced up and down while leaving a small gap in her lips to breathe. Following the rhythm, the two abundance of flesh quivered as well, making Yang Chen feel like his blood slowly heated up.
Yang Chen usually wouldnât have such a thought, or he wasnât ever given such an opportunity to think that way. In actuality, the most beautiful woman around here was this person that he met almost every dayâhis legal wife.
However, due to various reasons, Yang Chen would constrain himself to avoid paying attention to Lin Ruoxiâs look and body, ever since the incident happened when both of them got drunk. At this moment, Yang Chen got rather lost when he looked at Lin Ruoxi run at such a short distance.
Lin Ruoxi noticed that Yang Chen was staring at her for a long time, while her heart got rather pleased for unknown reasons. In fact, no matter how she got disgusted by this man, and how she would get angry for him, she had silently treated this man as her husband. Being a woman, it was torturing to not get her own husbandâs recognition. When she was young, Lin Ruoxi knew how breathtaking she looked to men, and it was the same case now. However, despite the countless looks she got outside, she hadnât been able to catch the attention of this fellowâs eyeballs at home. Furthermore, this fellow would openly look for women outside.
To the confident Lin Ruoxi, these would undoubtedly cause dissatisfaction and sorrow. However, she definitely wouldnât voice out thoughts like these, and would only act indifferent. Since deep down her heart, Lin Ruoxi still couldnât fully accept Yang Chen, not to mention various unhappy incidents happened between them, making her unable to think with an open mind so quickly. She needed time to think and feel.
Currently, Yang Chen was still staring at her. Looking for a short while was fine, but Lin Ruoxi couldnât stand it anymore when he continued gazing at her. Finally, she could only act like she knew nothing as she jogged. Her face slowly turned pink, which could be caused by the exercise or the shyness.
After running for a mile, Lin Ruoxi panted as beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Smiling, Yang Chen stopped the treadmill. âYouâre so obedient. Itâs my turn to exercise now. Dear, I need your help.â
Lin Ruoxi got tired and blurry by now. When Yang Chen said he needed help, she responded softly. It was rare for her to be this obedient, like a well-behaved lovely wife.
âWhat exercise are you doing?â Lin Ruoxi asked softly.
Yang Chen sat down on a yoga mat on the ground. âIâll be doing sit-ups. Help me support my feet, you can just simply press on them. You shouldâve done this before during physical education classes in primary school, right?â
âYeah,â Lin Ruoxi said. She knew what a sit-up was, as graduating university required a passing grade for sports. She wasnât completely a princess from a wealthy family.
However, Lin Ruoxi felt embarrassed to use her hands or knees to stabilize Yang Chenâs feet. She hesitated for very long as she didnât dare to take action.
Yang Chen who lay down on the ground saw that Lin Ruoxi was standing still. He smiled in his heart as he felt that this frightened woman looked exceptionally cute at this moment. He said, âBabe Ruoxi, if you donât want to cooperate, Iâll do it for you. Do you want me to carry your legs?â
âNo!â
Lin Ruoxi instantly kneeled down before reaching her hands out to wrap Yang Chenâs calves and placing her knees on his feet. Her pink cheeks blushed further. Shy, she lowered her head and said, âYou⊠you do it. I donât want to do itâŠâ
Yang Chen held back his laughter. Actually, he didnât have to exercise at all. He simply wanted to tease Lin Ruoxi and make her happy. Doing this would make the lady workaholic have a taste at life and improve their relationship. Why wouldnât he do this?
âIâll start now .â
âMmhâŠâ
Yang Chenâs sit-ups werenât very fast. He got up, lay down, got up, lay downâŠ
Every time he got up, his forehead would almost stick together with Lin Ruoxiâs. Facing each other, the two could breathe in each otherâs breaths.
Lin Ruoxi felt the warmth. Slightly raising her head, she could meet Yang Chenâs eyes. They could look at themselves from each otherâs pupils.
Following Yang Chenâs rises and falls, the two met each other and left repeatedlyâŠ
After a while, the more Yang Chen did the exercise, the slower he got. The time he took to look into Lin Ruoxiâs eyes slowly increased. Lin Ruoxi turned from being shy to getting inattentive. Inside her clear eyes, highly dense emotions could be found, including sweetness, annoyance, bitterness and helplessness...
When Yang Chen himself forgot how many times he did the exercise, he stopped at the top of the movement. Their cheeks were very close to each other. Within their eyes, the opposite sideâs eyes clearly reflected their faces.
âHow great, within your eyes, thereâs only me,â Yang Chen said smilingly.
Startled, Lin Ruoxi immediately moved her face away as her heartbeat quickened. âAre you done now?â
âNot yet,â Yang Chen replied.
Lin Ruoxi looked back, âThen youâŠâ
A warm breath flooded Lin Ruoxiâs unsaid words. Her ice-cold flowery, thin lips got engulfed by Yang Chenâs sudden kiss!
Yang Chen very much wanted to extend his tongue to explore Lin Ruoxiâs fragrant boudoir and kiss intensely for the entire morning, to make the special woman in front of his nose submerge his soul. However, he didnât stay there for long. After the affectionate kiss, he quickly let go of Lin Ruoxiâs small lips.
Lin Ruoxi stunned as her brain went blank. Emptiness appeared in her eyes. Everything got really messy.
Without any preparation, her kiss got stolen once again.
The last time was at a coffee shop, this time was in the gym, where would the next time be?
Slap!
Without any warning, Lin Ruoxi violently slapped Yang Chenâs face!
A light, red mark appeared.
Yang Chen smiled silently. He expected this consequence, so he had never thought of dodging.
Lin Ruoxiâs eyes got rather wet. Standing up slowly, she suppressed her complex emotions and recovered coldness on her face. âDo you think that teasing me is fun? Do you think that doing this is very interesting?â
âItâs not exactly the case,â Yang Chen said with a bitter smile.
âThen what is it?â
âItâs becauseââ
âI donât want to listen!â Lin Ruoxi turned around forcefully and ran to the gymâs exit before unlocking the door and leaving.
Listening to how hard Lin Ruoxi slammed the door, Yang Chen sighed out of helplessness. âStupid Girl, what is there to be shy about when a married couple kiss? You shouldâve slapped me lighterâŠâ
