Falling in Love With My Arranged-Marriage Husband
Chapter 231: 205: Deep, Dark, and Heavy

Chapter 231: Chapter 205: Deep, Dark, and Heavy

Actually, thinking from a different perspective, if the person she loved and cared about was suffering in pain alone, keeping it from her,

She would be angry too.

Initially… when her mother fell ill and hid it from her, the moment she found out, she felt as if the world was collapsing.

So, Ji Sang could completely understand why Fu Yisi was angry.

“I was wrong.”

At the moment when Fu Yisi finished bandaging, Ji Sang uttered these three words.

The man stopped packing the medical kit and looked up at Ji Sang.

“What did you do wrong?”

Ji Sang quietly clutched Fu Yisi’s sleeve with her right hand.

“I should have told you sooner.”

Fu Yisi snorted.

“What else?”

Ji Sang blinked, not quite understanding the meaning of Fu Yisi’s words at first.

The man sighed helplessly.

“Why didn’t you tell me when you got hurt?”

No wonder she had been quiet in the car; it turns out she was in pain.

Ji Sang shrunk her neck.

In the car, she had just finished saying her wound was not serious, and besides, she hadn’t expected that just a touch would cause so much bleeding.

Indeed, it was really painful.

“I was wrong.”

Ji Sang repeated it again.

Fu Yisi felt only heartache, he wouldn’t really hold it against Ji Sang, but still, he repeatedly cautioned her.

“If you’re not comfortable, say it. Isn’t your husband here for you to lean on?”

Ji Sang pursed her lips.

“I was afraid of worrying you, afraid of making you feel heartache,”

Fu Yisi glared at her.

“Not saying it makes me worry and hurt even more. Ji Sang, do you really have the heart, hmm?”

“I don’t.”

…

Since Ji Sang’s hand was injured, Fu Yisi naturally accompanied her during her wash up.

At first, Ji Sang was somewhat shy and worried, but perhaps because Fu Yisi was genuinely concerned about her injured hand, during the bath, aside from his deep dark eyes, he didn’t make any other moves.

The makeup removal was naturally done by Fu Yisi as well.

The last time Ji Sang was drunk, it was also Fu Yisi who washed her face and removed her makeup.

Ji Sang didn’t know when Fu Yisi had secretly learned about makeup removal, yet, seeing her beloved help her with it…

Truly was a novel and blissful experience.

However, Ji Sang’s makeup today leaned more towards bridal makeup, which was much more complex than her usual light makeup. Fu Yisi first used a makeup remover wipe and quickly realized that it barely removed any of the eye makeup.

The man pursed his lips, asking for advice,

“How should this be handled?”

Ji Sang couldn’t help but laugh, as this was the first time she had seen Fu Yisi asking someone for advice.

“If the eye makeup is complex, you need to use a special eye makeup remover.”

After her words, the man searched on the makeup table specifically designated for makeup removal products.

Ji Sang seldom used it, so that bottle of makeup remover was naturally tucked away in a corner.

Fu Yisi was really checking each bottle carefully, Ji Sang simply watched with amusement, not planning to tell him.

It’s fortunate that Fu Yisi was willing to spend time on Ji Sang, even if such mechanical and somewhat time-wasting acts were what he was willing to do.

By the time he found the bottle of makeup remover, Fu Yisi still turned his head to look at Ji Sang,

“This one?”

Ji Sang then squinted with a smile and nodded.

It was like playing a simple object-finding game.

Fu Yisi chuckled softly, pouring the makeup remover on a cotton pad, and whispered.

“Close your eyes.”

Ji Sang obediently closed her eyes.

Fu Yisi’s technique was clumsy, but he was careful not to hurt Ji Sang, keeping his movements very light, so light that Ji Sang could only feel the chilly touch of the makeup remover.

Before starting, he had clearly read the instructions carefully. He first moistened Ji Sang’s eyes with the product for half a minute before gently wiping them.

This was the first time that Ji Sang, while conscious, enjoyed Fu Yisi’s makeup removal service.

Who would have thought that Dr. Fu, who held scalpels and controlled life and death in the operating room, would be removing makeup from his wife at home.

When her makeup was completely removed, Ji Sang’s bare, smooth face was revealed.

Fu Yisi slightly lowered his gaze to see her slightly trembling eyelashes and her delicate, fair skin.

Under the light, he could also see the fine, transparent fuzz.

The man paused for a long time, and Ji Sang softly asked,

“What’s wrong? Are you done?”

“Yeah, it’s done.”

Fu Yisi’s voice was a bit hoarse.

Just as Ji Sang was about to open her eyes, she felt Fu Yisi lean in and then a gentle kiss landed on her eyelid.

How gentle was it?

It was like the willow fluff that lands on one’s eyelids during a spring outing in one’s younger days.

Soft and ticklish.

Ji Sang’s eyelid twitched several times, and only when Fu Yisi was about to open his lips did she open her eyes.

And suddenly, she was looking deep into Fu Yisi’s profound eyes.

They were deep, heavy, and dark.

Like a black hole, with an attraction that made one unable to resist peering further.

In the depth of emotions, just by looking into each other’s eyes, they knew each other’s thoughts.

Perhaps tonight Fu Yisi was truly frightened by that phone call. In this emotional… episode, Ji Sang could always feel that the man seemed to want to prove, through intense, real, passionate physical interaction, that she was still alright.

As her consciousness blurred and she was about to fall asleep, Ji Sang thought:

She must not allow herself to get hurt again.

…

It was not until the next day that Ji Sang learned that Fu Yisi had taken up part-time forensic work at Jiangshui Police Station.

“Can you manage it?”

Ji Sang frowned, just the workload at City First Hospital was already overwhelming, let alone taking on additional forensic duties. Where could he find the time and energy?

Fu Yisi comforted her,

“There won’t be that many cases.”

However, it seemed like fate was playing tricks on Fu Yisi.

That very night, another woman in the city was stalked, assaulted, and… killed.

This was the second victim in the recent series of female stalking and assault cases.

The entire city was discussing the matter, and it even made it onto the hot search on Weibo.

Jiangshui Police Station was extremely busy, the pressure from superiors, the public, and the media weighed heavily on the team handling the case.

And as the person in charge, Captain Lei was nearly at his breaking point.

After the meeting, Captain Lei went alone to the staircase, chain-smoking one cigarette after another.

Until the stairwell was filled with smoke, until even he himself felt somewhat breathless, only then did he stop.

The cigarette pack was empty, cigarette butts scattered all around.

Captain Lei stared with bloodshot eyes as he stepped out of the door, reeking of smoke.

Qiming glanced at him and then seemed unable to maintain eye contact.

“Captain, Dr. Fu has already arrived.”

Captain Lei pinched the bridge of his nose,

“Let’s go.”

Qiming blinked,

“Go… where?”

Captain Lei looked at him with knitted brows, did not say a word, and just started walking outside.

Qiming hesitated for a few seconds, but in the end, he had to bite the bullet and follow.
