Su Wan finished bathing and went back to her room after cleaning the bath house , even though this era didn't have a soap . She was still feeling better after washing herself with warm water as for soap - she might give it a try later on , Since Su Wan family didn't come from a good background Su Wan's grandmother usually tried to minimize their expenses by making things at home such as sewing clothes etc which also included home made soaps . Though Su Wan didn't try making home made soaps , she had a general idea about how to make them .

Su Wan sat down on her mattress and waited for Lin Jing to arrive .

​​

Soon Lin Jing too finished his bath . Clean and feeling fresh he pushed open the door of Su Wan's room and entered .

Su Wan saw that he was carrying two cups in hands while he walked really carefully making sure that the liquid in the cups didn't slosh around .

" ah Jing what's that ?" she asked standing up from her mattress, since they didn't have any furniture Lin Jing couldn't place the cups on the table and with his careful way of carrying them it seemed that he didn't want to put in on the ground it .

" Wan Wan..wine " what Lin Jing wanted to say was that even though we aren't going to consummate our marriage , I still think of you as my wife . That is why Wan Wan let's share this nupital wine and accept each other as husband and wife . But Lin Jing who didn't know how to string these words without making them sound offensive or accusing , ended up saying only three words .

Su Wan naturally understood what he wanted to say but still couldn't resist the temptation to tease him as she took the cup filled with wine " Ah Jing ~" cooing softly she interlinked their arms and brought wine cup to her lips and drank the wine in one gulp.

Lin Jing who heard Su Wan calling in such a coy manner felt as if his heart was being scratched by a cat . He trembled and gulped his wine but because of Su Wan's short stature when he raised his arm , Su Wan was pulled closer to his body .

When Su Wan's soft body flushed against his , Lin Jing felt swallowed hard . His bodily instinct told him to take his wife then and there but he didn't want to make his wife angry . So he hurriedly disentangled himself from Su Wan , crossed the mattress and started taking off his outer garments before he blew out the lamp and got on the mattress.

Su Wan who saw his flurried manner found this husband of her's really cute , did Lin Jing thought that if he blew out the lamp she won't see his reddened ears ? How naive .

Her room had the best scenery and there were no panes in windows either in her room , maybe the previous resident loved the river view as well and didn't bother with panes . Because of that her room was now well lit by moonlight and she could see the blush that was yet to recede from Lin Jing's ears .

Once Lin Jing threw the covers over him , Su Wan followed suit and laid down on the bed .

Su Wan still wanted to talk to Lin Jing so naturally she couldn't sleep and the same could be said for Lin Jing . In his twenty six years of life this was the first time a woman was sleeping beside him moreover this woman was his wife ! Lin Jing could smell Su Wan's natural scent that wafted over to him and that fragrance entered his body and went right down to his ****. He could feel heat pulsating in his body and something pressing against his pants , ge was ofcourse a healthy young man , asking him to resist doing anything was equivalent to asking a wolf not to pounce on the sheep when he was dying of hunger ! Wasn't this torture inhuman? or was it ?

Su Wan waited for Lin Jing to say something but contrary to her expectations this husband of her's simply continued lying on the mattress like a log if wood ( Lin Jing : I'm wronged ; I don't want to lie as a log of wood but I have no choice ! Ah " )

When she saw that Lin Jing was really not speaking she was infuriated. How will they live a happy life like this ? With her husband being so stoic like this - but then she calmed down , it was still her first day here , she still had time as long as she worked hard maybe she could change her husband's nature a little and make him talk a little more , even if she couldn't make him talk , Su Wan was assured that she could atleast make Lin Jing speak few more words !

Thus, she turned her body towards Lin Jing so that she will face him directly and just as she did , she silently gasped . Even though she knew that the brothers were really handsome , gazing at a beauty under the moonlight was a completely different experience , in the morning Lin Jing looked a bit harsh and rough but now the moonlight had softened his facial features making him look even more charming .

But this didn't make her happy at all ! Ahhh , it was just the first night and she was already regretting her decision ! Damn it ! How she wanted to trace those handsome curves of his face , how she wanted to run her fingers upon his lips - how she wanted him to look down at her with his eyes filled with passion. and lust , as he covered her body with his and - never mind .

Su Wan quickly put a stop on her thoughts that were hurriedly and very happily skipping down the path of temptations .

Right now she just wanted to talk to Lin Jing ! That's right just a simple , platonic conversation.
