Shen Chen stopped, grabbed Lin Xi together, and turned sideways to look at her.

He said: "Just now in the cell, you told the proprietress of the rouge shop that there are no permanent strong relationships in this world, only those based on interests?"

Lin Xi was stunned, not quite understanding why Shen Chen suddenly said this.

She nodded and said: "Yes, the best way to quickly convince someone is to start from the other person's perspective. And the boss lady is a businessman. She knows the importance of interests best, so I spoke to her specifically, It’s easier to impress her. Didn’t this succeed in the end? Is there a problem?”

"That's not what I meant." Shen Chen looked at Lin Xi and said, "Does your wife think so too? Do you think there is no forever strong relationship in this world?"

Lin Xi thought for a while and nodded.

Shen Chen couldn't help but take a deep breath and stretched out his arms to hug Lin Xi into his arms.

Lin Xi was even more confused, and suddenly heard him whisper: "It's because of my husband, but it doesn't give the lady enough sense of security, making her feel that you and I will eventually... I will pay attention to it in the future. If the lady I also feel that this statement... is not very reliable, so we just have to look at the husband’s actions.”

Hearing this, Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, and then realized what Shen Chen was thinking.

She couldn't help but feel touched and amused. She pushed him away with a little force, looked directly into his eyes, and said: "In fact, the saying that interests are the strongest relationships depends on the person and the situation. For This sentence is naturally appropriate for the boss lady’s situation. But when it comes to me, it’s not appropriate.”

"Um?"

Shen Li was slightly confused.

Lin Xi held his hand tightly and said: "Because I have never felt that our couple has been unstable. You have been telling me with your actions that you care about me, like me, and want to stay with me forever. Compared to this, it may be a bit People are sweeter than you and talk more, but their actual actions may not be as good as yours. And when two people live together, the most important thing to look at is what they do for each other, isn't it?"

Maybe she hadn't heard much of Shen Chen's sweet words, but Shen Chen had always respected her, never forced her, and would accompany her to do whatever she wanted to do.

In this era, when a woman is in business, she will often be criticized by others and attract gossip. But Shen Chen has never cared about that. He has also helped her solve a lot of troubles overtly and covertly. He does not feel at all that he has to rely on his wife at home. There's nothing shameful about making money.

As the saying goes, contentment always brings happiness.

Lin Xi also feels that it is a kind of stability for her to meet a partner like Shen Chen in this era. She is now busy and happy every day, and her life is quite satisfying.

After hearing this, Shen Li looked at Lin Xi steadily, leaned forward and kissed her forehead, and said: "In the future, I will let you continue to feel at ease."

Lin Xi nodded with a smile and said deliberately: "It doesn't matter to me if you make me uneasy. Anyway, now that I have a business and several skills, I can support myself. I can live without you. Very good, no need to worry about men..."

Shen Chen's expression changed slightly, and he didn't give Lin Xi a chance to finish. He lowered his head and kissed her lips, stopping her from talking.

When they separated again, Shen Chen looked deeply at the panting Lin Xi, bit her mouth, and said in a low voice: "I will not let us have such a day, and you are not allowed to think about separation."

Lin Xi opened her gleaming almond eyes and stared at him without any deterrence: "It's not like I can't live without you..."

Shen Chen hummed in a low voice, put his forehead against hers, and said, "My husband cannot live without my wife."

Lin Xi was so heartbroken that he couldn't speak. He coughed twice and said, "Then you should be better behaved in the future. Don't get too close to the woman next to you, and you can't have a concubine named Yang Waishi..."

"Neither."

Shen Chen replied decisively.

Lin Xi was satisfied, and took the initiative to kiss him, and said happily: "It's getting late, let's rest in the inn."

Shen Chen nodded, but before leaving, he still called two officials and told them to go to Wudao Archway to give the secret code for contact. He told them to be careful not to be discovered, and then returned to the inn.

When I returned, Erbao had already fallen asleep.

Dr. Lin was still waiting in the lobby on the first floor, lying on the table and drowsily, his mind was spinning little by little, and he woke up from time to time.

Finally, when Lin Xi and Shen Chen came back, he quickly asked about Delphinium.

Lin Xi told him the truth and said that he would ask about the specific origin of delphinium after contacting Yueqin.

Doctor Lin waved his hands and went upstairs to sleep.

Lin Xi was about to go back to the room when she was suddenly pulled by Shen Chen.

"What's wrong?"

"Erbao is asleep."

Shen Chen stared straight at Lin Xi and said.

Lin Xi was stunned, "I know, didn't Old Lin say that just now?"

Seeing that she didn't understand, Shen Chen felt helpless and said bluntly: "Since the second treasure has gone to bed, we won't go back and disturb him. Let's get another room."

"But Erbao is alone. What if..."

"There is nothing wrong with this. Except for the exception, there are people from the yamen here, so it is very safe. Besides, he is old enough, and there is no problem sleeping alone." Shen Chen interrupted Lin Xi.

In other matters, Shen Chen would be very accommodating to Lin Xi, but when it came to matters related to his happiness, Shen Chen was very tough and quickly asked the waiter for a clean guest room.

When Lin Xi was pulled over, he found that it was at the end of the corridor, far away from the original room.

she:"………"

She asked; "Shen Chen, did you do it on purpose?"

"how come?"

Shen Chen looked at her innocently, hugged her directly, opened the door and took her in, then kicked his foot to close the door. He lowered his eyes and looked at Lin Xi, his magnetic voice was almost close to her ears, arousing a tingling sensation. .

"Madam, this is a legitimate pleasure for your husband. Investigating crimes during the day is already hard enough. Do you want me to be so cruel and deprive your husband of this only pleasure?"

Lin Xi's cheeks turned red, and she turned away nervously, saying: "I didn't say I didn't want to, but I should tell Erbao at least, right? If he wakes up in the middle of the night and doesn't see us, he will be worried..."

"No, he knows that his parents are doing business."

Shen Chen directly picked up Lin Xi and put her down beside the bed. Then he turned to pour hot water, soaked the handkerchief and came back to wash her.

Under Shen Li's burning gaze, Lin Xi quickly took off his coat and lay down on the inside.

Shen Chen also quickly got into bed and without saying a word, he took Lin Xi and the quilt into his arms.

Relying on Shen Chen's broad and strong arms, Lin Xi felt relieved and felt sleepy. Just when she was falling asleep, she unexpectedly heard Shen Chen's deep voice.

"Madam, when can we... consummate our marriage?"

Lin Xi's yawn was stuck in her throat, and she burped: "...Huh?"

Shen Chen rubbed his chin against her face and repeated it again.

Now Lin Xi was sure that she heard correctly, her cheeks turned even redder, and the inexplicable heat made her unable to breathe in Shen Chen's arms.

"...Madam? We..."

When Shen Chen saw that she was silent, he called her and planned to repeat it.

The stunned Lin Xi reflexively covered his mouth: "Stop talking!"

Shen Chen paused and kissed the palm of her hand. His deep, dark eyes were very bright in the darkness, and they were also scorching, as if he had repeatedly suppressed his desire and demands, which made people feel sour.

Lin Xi retracted his hand like an electric shock, hesitated, and whispered: "I...I'm not ready..." Besides, how could he ask such a thing directly? How embarrassing! She No matter whether you say you are willing or not, it all seems weird!

Shen Chen was silent, hugged him tightly, pressed Lin Xi's head into his arms with his big hands, and said softly: "Okay, I will ask again when the lady is ready."

Lin Xi: "!!"

Why can't I just skip asking and go directly... If I ask again, is it because I think she's not embarrassed enough?

Lin Xi buried her face in his arms and refused to speak.
