1 Year Of Beginning

Madam Zhang.

Thinking about this new name she would have, Feng Mian felt a bit of a headache. It was not like she disliked this name, but she felt that it was unfit for her. As she was only someone Zhang Liang offered a contract marriage, this term shouldn't have belonged to her.

'It's just for a year…'

Butler Lou guided Feng Mian into Zhang Liang's room. The room itself was large, but there was barely anything inside aside from one table, one chair, some decorations, some books, one closet, and one bed. Seeing the simple room, Feng Mian's eyes widened.

She always thought that rich people have a luxurious bedroom. But it seemed that her thoughts were totally wrong. The room in front of her was simple, yet elegant. The warm color on the wall made it look so peaceful and comfortable.

"This is Master's bedroom," Butler Lou said respectfully. "There's only Miss Ai clothes in the other room. I shall bring them here."

"Thank you."

Feng Mian walked into the room and scrutinized everything on her sight. The books on the table were mostly about sweets and so on. It seemed that Zhang Liang was also participating in the making of new sweets.

'How unexpected. I thought he's just a businessman.'

After looking at the table, Feng Mian walked to the bed. Her hand lightly pressed the bed from the side. It was so soft! Recalling her own hard bed, Feng Mian wanted to cry.

If she got too pampered, she was worried that she might have problems returning back to her life.

Pushing the thought to the back of her mind, Feng Mian walked around the room once more. There was a door heading to the bathroom. She glanced inside and was speechless. Even the bathroom was nearly as big as her own room back in her motel room. Well, she knew that the place where she stayed was small, but this place is truly far bigger.

"Madam Zhang?"

"Yes?" Feng Mian walked out of the bathroom. She saw Butler Lou already brought a set of clothes. "Ah, thank you."

"Please try first. This is the smallest from Miss Ai's clothes."

The smallest?

Feng Mian tried to recall her meeting with Zhang Ai. Since they were all sitting, she could not gauge their heights properly but if she was not wrong Zhang Ai was nearly as tall as Zhang Liang….

Damn their gene, even a woman could be so tall.

Zhang Liang was around 6 feet or probably slightly taller while Zhang Ai was 5'6 or 5'7. In any case, the two of them were far taller than her, so it was unlikely that their clothes could match her.

In addition, Feng Mian recalled that Zhang Ai's c.h.e.s.t was far bigger than her. Well, she was slightly flat too….

"Thank you." Feng Mian pushed the thought to the back of her mind and forced a smile out on her lips.

Butler Lou smiled apologetically. He didn't intentionally try to make Feng Mian uncomfortable, but he needed to do his work. Because of that, he had no choice but to tell Feng Mian.

Rushing to the bathroom, Feng Mian tried the clothes. Looking at the pajamas from the mirror, she felt glad that Zhang Ai still wore pajamas and not nightgown. Even though it was slightly bigger for her, the clothes were still comfortable to wear. She just needed to make sure that she would not trip over herself.

Feng Mian walked out of the bathroom. "It's a bit too big, but it's enough."

"That's good." Butler Lou smiled. "Would you like some warm milk before bed?"

"No, there's no need."

"I understand. If there's anything you need, please don't hesitate to tell me."

Feng Mian nodded. She felt that the butler was really nice. "There's nothing else. Thank you for concern, Butler Lou."

"In that case, good night, Madam."

After Butler Lou walked out, Feng Mian sighed and sat down on the edge of the bed. She felt a bit tired from the mental stress today. Meeting Zhang Liang's family proved to be much more arduous than what she thought at first.

Klek!

The door opened and Zhang Liang walked in with his laptop in his hand. He looked at Feng Mian and furrowed his brows. "You're really small."

Excuse me?

Feng Mian felt like throwing a book to Zhang Liang's head. This height should be considered normal in this city. Even if it was slightly short, women were normally short, ok! It was a tall woman who should be rare in this country.

"I'll ask Lou to prepare clothes for you tomorrow. You can rest first."

"You're not going to sleep?" Feng Mian tilted her head. The bed was king size, so it should be more than enough for the two of them to sleep on either edge. In any case, she was glad that she didn't need to stay close with him.

"I still have work, so you can sleep first."

"Oh, ok. Which side should I pick?"

"I don't have preferences, so you can choose yourself."

"Alright."

Feng Mian picked the pillow and put it in the middle before she lied down on the left side. From this position, she was facing the window, so there was no need for her to see Zhang Liang.

'I need to sleep. Just ignore him….'

She had slept in the same room with her brother before when she was a child and unable to sleep because of rain. Well, the context was different, but Feng Mian tried not to think too much right now. She just needed to sleep.

The sound of keyboard typing filled the room, but Feng Mian didn't open her eyes at all. She didn't know when she finally fell asleep.

Zhang Liang only finished his work when it was 2 AM. He closed his laptop and walked to the bed and found Feng Mian already slept peacefully.

'I also need to get used to this.'

Sighing to himself, Zhang Liang laid on the right side and closed his eyes before drifting to sleep.
