Chapter 70 - Use my credit card (3)
The next morning, the room was very bright from the sun shining through the window and the apricot-colored curtains.
Ji Qingqing felt refreshed when she woke up and opened her eyes. There was no one next to her in bed.
When she looked at the clock, she saw that it was 8 o\'clock.
She heard noises coming from the walk-in closet.
Ji Qingqing got out of bed and walked to the doorway of the walk-in closet. She saw Lu Lixing buttoning up his shirt. The bottom of his shirt hadn\'t been buttoned up yet, and she could see his strong abs peeking through.
It would definitely feel good to feel up those toned muscles.
Having heard footsteps, Lu Lixing turned around and saw Ji Qingqing. He didn\'t acknowledge her and continued getting dressed instead. He chose a grey tie and started tying the tie.
Ji Qingqing enjoyed the sight of Lu Lixing holding his head high with his eyes half-closed in front of the dressing mirror and the line of smooth muscle from the risen shirt...
He was so handsome!
Lu Lixing selected a suit jacket and put it on.
Ji Qingqing glanced at the rest of the closet. The left side of the closet was full of shirts that Aunty Pei had ironed as well as suit jackets. On the right side of the closet, there were clothes from the new season that Aunty Pei had prepared for her.
Aunty Pei had prepared too many clothes for Ji Qingqing, so some of her new clothes ended up overflowing to Lu Lixing\'s side of the closet.
Seeing men and women\'s clothes hung up together, Ji Qingqing had a strange feeling.
It felt as if this was her closet, and a man\'s clothing had appeared in her space. She suddenly had a sense of belonging as if she was putting down roots.
"I think that dark blue tie would look better with your suit than the gray one."
Lu Lixing instinctively wanted to disagree with Ji Qingqing\'s suggestion, but he stopped himself before he blurted that out.
After thinking it over, he looked at Ji Qingqing and removed the grey tie from his neck. He asked Ji Qingqing, "Do you know how to tie a tie knot?"
"I do."
"Come here."
Ji Qingqing walked over.
Lu Lixing took out the dark blue tie and handed it to her. "Help me."
Ji Qingqing held the tie as if she was holding a hot potato.
"... Didn\'t you say you know how? You\'re my wife. Are you not willing to help your husband?"
Ji Qingqing thought it over. "Lower your head then."
Lu Lixing lowered his head, and Ji Qingqing stood on her tiptoes to wrap the tie around his neck.
The two of them were very close. When Ji Qingqing stood her on her tiptoes and Lu Lixing lowered his head, her nose almost hit Lu Lixing\'s face.
When this man was wearing casual clothing, it was still okay. But once he put on business wear, it felt as if he had changed into a completely different person. He looked striking and majestic. One look was enough to make her heart beat faster and her face flushed. How hopeless of her.
Lu Lixing watched as she tied his tie. She was obviously not accustomed to doing this. His gaze went from her soft, slender, and fair-skinned fingertips to her lower eyelids.
"Remember to pick up the prayer beads today and come home early."
"I know."
"Use my credit card." Lu Lixing added, "If you see anything you like, you can use my credit card."
Ji Qingqing didn\'t respond to his offer. She finished tying his tie. "Done."
Lu Lixing looked at the mirror, straightened his clothes, put on his watch and cuffs, and pocketed his other personal belongings. Then, he headed downstairs to eat breakfast.
