174: Under the soft moonlight, Su Qingge opened her eyes~~

It was late night, exactly 12 o'clock.

Hearing Lin Xuan mention turning off the lights and going to sleep, Su Qingge outwardly appeared to be in a peaceful slumber, but in reality, her heart was already in a chaotic mess.

This was the first time in her life she had ever laid on the same bed with someone of the opposite sex.

Even someone who had weathered many storms like her found her palms sweating with nervousness at that moment.

Click~~ Hearing the lights turn off, Su Qingge's breathing hitched, and her cheeks instantly flushed red.

Fortunately, the room was pitch black, and Lin Xuan didn't notice; he just carefully pulled back the covers.

Did he... get in?

Sensing Lin Xuan burrowing into the blankets and lying beside her, Su Qingge's heart instantly raced, feeling like it was pounding in her throat.

She could feel Lin Xuan lying very close, his shoulder just touching hers, and she could even hear his heavy breathing... [Is it finally time for this moment?]

[Will Lin Xuan be well-behaved? Or will he do something to me...]

[Oh dear! What am I thinking? Lin Xuan already promised he wouldn't do anything strange to me before I woke up.]

[Besides, haven't I been ready for this? This is what I owe him.]

[If Lin Xuan truly wants it, then I will satisfy him...]

[But I heard the first time is quite painful; I wonder if that's true, I'm a little scared!]

Su Qingge's thoughts were scattered, constantly telling herself to calm down and relax, not to overthink, and just let everything take its natural course.

Yet, her entire focus couldn't help but be drawn to the young man beside her.

She had originally thought Lin Xuan would do something to her... but who would have thought he would just say "Good night" and then fall completely silent?

Soon, she heard a rhythmic breathing sound.

Lin Xuan seemed to... already be asleep???

No, he just fell asleep?!

Her initial tension froze, and Su Qingge felt it was utterly absurd, unsure how to react for a moment.

On her wedding night, with a great beauty like her sleeping right beside him, he did nothing... and just fell asleep?!!

Unable to tell if it was disappointment or some other emotion, Su Qingge inexplicably felt a little dejected.

However, if Lin Xuan were to know about her inner thoughts... he would surely roll his eyes and think:

Women are just so prissy and say one thing but mean another.

If he really wanted to do something, she'd say she wasn't ready, but if he didn't, she'd feel a sense of loss. Ugh~~

Indeed, a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea!

Actually, the main reason Lin Xuan didn't do anything out of line was that... tonight was, after all, the first day they were sharing a bed; there would be plenty of time in the future, so there was no need to rush.

Moreover, Su Qingge was still in a vegetative state.

He wasn't so desperate as to disregard the girl's feelings and forcefully take her body.

Although she most likely wouldn't refuse, this would undoubtedly leave her with bad memories and damage his image.

Anyway, there would be plenty of time later; it wouldn't be too late then... A fragrant girl is like a sweet delicacy; one must savor her bite by bite, chewing slowly, to truly bring out her deliciousness! Ψ(￣∀￣)Ψ.

Besides, just being able to sleep in the same bed with Su Qingge was already a significant breakthrough in their relationship.

Looking at the steadily increasing 'Intimacy Points' in his mind, Lin Xuan unconsciously showed a satisfied smile.

This way of gaining a large amount of "passive income" even while lying down was truly... super cool!!!

He seemed to already see a future day... when he had accumulated enough Intimacy Points, transformed into an invincible Immortal Emperor, and reigned supreme across the entire universe.

And so... embracing his beautiful fantasies for the future, Lin Xuan slowly drifted into dreamland... Quietly~~

In the dark room, apart from steady breathing, you could hear a pin drop.

Outside the window, the bright moonlight streamed into the room, falling precisely on the crimson wedding bed and illuminating Su Qingge's exquisite face, making her appear even more captivating.

Suddenly, with her eyelashes fluttering, the girl on the wedding bed naturally... slowly opened her eyes!

Those bright beautiful eyes, for the first time since she became a 'vegetable person', finally bloomed in the darkness.

[The moonlight... is so soft...]

At this moment, bathed in the sacred moonlight, the girl's world seemed to be re-lit, her pupils filled with ecstasy.

She felt the stimulating sensation of the moonlight directly hitting her eyeballs, and her eyes excitedly darted around.

What she saw was no longer endless darkness, but a world full of colors.

She saw the red furniture in the room, the red balloons hanging from the ceiling, and the twinkling stars outside the window... Everything, which might seem ordinary to a normal person, appeared so clear and beautiful to Su Qingge, who had regained her sight.

She began to carefully observe every detail, wanting to deeply engrave every little thing she saw into her memory with her own eyes... [I can see, I can finally see!!!!]

[I never thought... that one day I would wake up again and see this beautiful world.]

[When I first became a 'vegetable person'...]

[I truly despaired, thinking I would spend the rest of my life in endless darkness and fear.]

[But now...]

[It's so good, to witness the beauty and wonder of this world once again, it's truly wonderful...]

Recalling the time she first fell into a coma, Su Qingge had prayed countless times for someone to come and kill her.

Anyone would do... as long as they could free her from the nightmare, she was willing to pay any price.

Fortunately, on that day, the man who brought her hope appeared; only he wasn't there to kill her, but to save her.

Su Qingge would never forget the first time she met him... he lifted her small hand, clasped both hands together, holding them tightly in his palm, giving her that warmth, and those words... [Qingge, I've come to see you.]

[My name is Lin Xuan, your future husband.]

Recalling the past, the girl's gaze softened.

She remembered that when she first heard those words, she had scoffed at them, dismissing Lin Xuan with disdain.

She thought he was a man as vile as the rumors suggested, and that he had only married into the Su Family to bring good fortune and curry favor with her grandfather... But now... Su Qingge couldn't help but blush with embarrassment.

She had to admit that she had been too prejudiced and judged by appearances back then.

Those who haven't experienced hell will never understand the preciousness of the ordinary.

Even though she still couldn't move her body, just being able to see this colorful world filled her with heartfelt joy.

Unconsciously, the girl's eyes became moist, tears welling up, as she cried silently.

The glistening tears, illuminated by the bright moonlight, sparkled with joy.

Then they slid down her beautiful cheeks, landing on the red wedding pillow, dampening the large ' 囍' character embroidered on it.

Su Qingge was truly grateful for this miracle brought by heaven.

Of course... the one she should be most grateful to is... the young man sleeping soundly beside her.

If it weren't for him, she would never have been able to experience this miracle.

As she still couldn't move or turn her head, Su Qingge could only try her best to roll her eyes to her right. →_→

Using the dim moonlight from outside the window and the corner of her eye, Su Qingge finally saw, for the first time since she had been in a coma for so long, the man she had spent so much time with but had never met...

At this moment, Lin Xuan, unaware that his wife had opened her eyes and was constantly scanning him, was still dreaming various dreams of becoming an "Immortal Emperor."

[Lin Xuan... he's quite handsome...]

Under the soft moonlight, Lin Xuan slept peacefully, like a statue.

The moonlight gently caressed his face, outlining his resolute features.

His eyebrows were thick and neat, like two ink-black arrows, slanting into his temples, giving him a dashing appearance.

His eyes were tightly closed, his long eyelashes like two small fans, gently covering his eyelids, casting faint shadows, as if hiding countless secrets.

His nose bridge was straight, like a mountain peak rising from the ground, showcasing nobility and confidence.

His lips were slightly upturned, as if even in deep sleep, a subtle smile lingered, revealing a hint of gentleness and kindness... Su Qingge's eyes widened, staring intently at Lin Xuan's handsome face.

Even though her requirements for male appearance were very low, everyone appreciates beauty.

Out of biological instinct, the girl was immediately captivated by Lin Xuan's sleeping face... His sleeping face exuded a unique charm, possessing both the sunny vitality of youth and a touch of masculine maturity and steadiness.

This aura made one want to get closer to him, to understand him, yet also hesitant to disturb his tranquility.

Especially under the moonlight... Lin Xuan's skin was as fair as snow, delicate like jade, emanating a kind of ethereal beauty that made one want to reach out and touch him, yet also fear waking this sleeping handsome man... [(〃＞ dish＜) Damn it! Lin Xuan... was he really that handsome?]

[Who was it back then? Who told me Lin Xuan had an ordinary appearance, that's simply nonsense!]

[This is clearly the most handsome man I've ever seen!]

[The only pity is that I can't see what he looks like with his eyes open...]

Su Qingge's eyes kept darting around, using the corner of her eye to peek at Lin Xuan's face.

No matter how she looked, his face seemed to have one word carved into it... Handsome!!!!

So handsome!!!!!!

Too handsome!!!!!!!!

[Hehe, I wonder what expression Lin Xuan will have when he wakes up tomorrow and finds that I can open my eyes?]

[He'll definitely be very surprised, right?]

[Just thinking about it is fun~~]

[Suddenly I really want it to be morning soon!]

[Before, my world was only darkness, with no concept of time at all.]

[But from now on, I can also look forward to every sunrise. (*^▽^*) ]

The night grew deeper.

Su Qingge, filled with anticipation for the sunrise, slowly closed her eyes.

Two minutes later, she suddenly opened her large, beautiful eyes again, not because she was reluctant to sleep after finally being able to see.

It was purely because she... had insomnia!!!

The long night, in the past, her eyes only saw darkness, and she was drowsy every day.

So it didn't matter whether she could fall asleep or not.

Anyway, it was all resting with her eyes closed.

But now... perhaps she was too excited tonight, and too much adrenaline was secreted.

On her first night after waking from a vegetative state, she had insomnia... Forcibly closing her eyes... couldn't help but open them... closing, opening, closing, opening... After repeating this several times, Su Qingge reluctantly gave up struggling, her eyes darting around.

Finally, her peripheral vision settled on Lin Xuan's face, and she kept peeking at him with a blush. ~~(﹁﹁)~

Her thoughts gradually drifted... She suddenly realized that Lin Xuan truly fit all her childhood imaginings of a Prince Charming...

He was handsome, talented, could sing, and tell stories.

He could also help her family overcome difficulties repeatedly.

He gently stayed by her side, protecting her every day... All these behaviors perfectly matched her requirements for a partner when she was first experiencing puppy love.

Originally, as she grew older, Su Qingge had long given up on such unrealistic fantasies.

She didn't believe such a perfect man existed in this world.

Especially after experiencing various setbacks in life... she even more deeply understood profound truths like "It's better to rely on yourself than others" and "Men are as reliable as sows climbing trees."

So she grew up.

No longer like her teenage self, expecting a prince to appear whenever she encountered difficulties.

She was determined to become her own Prince Charming, her own salvation... But fate... sometimes it's just so wonderfully strange.

Before she became a 'vegetable person', she scoffed at all men.

At that time, she could hardly imagine that one day she would marry a man and even share a bed with him.

Especially since this man was actually acquired through a 'marriage of good fortune'... During her time in a coma, Su Qingge sometimes wondered if she had been blessed in disguise?

If she hadn't become a 'vegetable person'... her grandfather wouldn't have brought Lin Xuan to marry into the family for good luck, and she would never have had this period of warm experiences.

If she hadn't become a 'vegetable person'... perhaps dying alone would have been her ultimate fate.

But now... she actually craved this feeling, even having the thought of not wanting to wake up too quickly.

Because once she woke up... she would have to face many things, and at that time... being beyond her control... perhaps she would never again... experience such warm days...
