Secret Wife Is A Crazy Beast

Chapter 8 - You're my priority

Shen's eyes softened as he saw the girl care for him. It seemed that her inherent nature hadn't changed. She thought too much about others before herself. She had tried so hard to hide that side of her and put on a tough exterior when they had first met, and now she was a defenseless bunny looking up at him wide-eyed and expectant.

He had indeed forgotten to eat himself. Butler Min had brought up two bowls of soup but he had only picked one up and brought it in the room to feed her first.

"Hubby needs to eat too or I won't." Lina pouted and said to him, acting like a spoilt child. She wanted him to coax her.

Shen laughed and said, "My soup is outside, I will bring it inside and we can eat together ok?"

As brought another bowl of soup in the bedroom for himself, they settled themselves on the large, comfortable couch and and began eating. The warm soup made Lina's body feel more relaxed and she grew more tired. Shen hadn't touched his own food, because his eyes were riveted on her.

Lina turned to look at him and saw that he hadn't eaten yet. Her sleepy eyes widened slightly as she saw that Shen's bowl of soup was untouched.

"Stupid hubby...mindless idiot..." she began to grumble as she took a spoonful from her own bowl and held it in front of his mouth.

"Open" she commanded him. Shen's jaw dropped faster than his mind could process that she was trying to feed him.

Before he knew it, she had shoved the whole spoonful into his mouth. The soup tasted so much better than it would have from his own bowl. Lina began to bring another spoonful to him, and realised he'd already had his mouth open like a child waiting to be fed.

Lina giggled a little at his expectant face. "You're so silly!" she said to him, after she finished feeding him the entire bowl of soup. "You can't forget to eat. Who's going to take care of me if you're not healthy!" she complained. "I haven't entirely recovered, you know."

"Yes, yes my wife is right. I'm sorry, I will take care of my health. But you should sleep first, I still have some doc.u.ments to go over, since I just got back to the Capital." Shen kissed her head as he helped her get tucked into bed.

Lina was just about to drift off to sleep when she heard a little rustling noise. She opened her eyes slightly and saw Shen leaving something on her bedside table. She waited for him to go back outside to the study before she helped herself up and peeked at what he had left by the lamp.

There were two certificates and a small photo framed in a pretty, yet simple photo frame. She realised the two doc.u.ments were marriage certificates. Her name was Lina Mito prior to marrying Shen Moshi. She was currently, 26 years old, her birthday was on the 12th of January. She realised there were no names for her parents listed, except for her last name was listed as Mito. Lina Mito. Shen's certificate showed her was 32 years old, and his birthday was on 9th of September. His parents' names were Soren and Rika Moshi.

'I don't know anything about my own family.'

'And now I have in-laws. I don't know anything about them either.'

'What do I even do, besides being married to Shen?!'

Even though these thoughts tired her out, she made a mental note to ask Shen about her past when she woke up and then about his family.

Then she saw the date they got married. 11th March. It must have been warm that day. It would have been a pretty day.

She then checked today's date...it was the 6th of November. They had been married almost eight months. She wondered how they'd met, how he'd proposed to her, how they got married. She wanted to remember who he was the most. She wanted to remember everything that made her fall for him. Her heart was suddenly warm.

Then the little photo frame caught her eye. She picked it up and squinted. It looked like their wedding photo. But neither of them looked particularly extravagant. There was no big wedding dress or guests or people around. But somehow, she looked so happy in the photo. Shen was looking at her with emotion and pride while she was smiling brightly into the camera. Their hands were interlocked, showing off their matching wedding bands. It was the same one she was wearing right now. No fancy stones or diamonds, just a simple, slim and elegant silver band.

All of a sudden, there were little droplets of water falling on the glass frame. She reached up to touch her face and noticed it was soaked with tears. Her vision was blurry and she began sobbing uncontrollably.

'Why am I crying so much? Why does my heart hurt like this?' she questioned herself.

Her legs automatically began moving as she quickly threw the blanket aside, and rushed out of the room. She still didn't know her way around the house but she didn't care. It was cold and she was only dressed in a thin, satin night dress. She saw a door slightly open with a light on, and ran in.

She saw Shen sitting at a big mahogany desk, in a white loose t-shirt, and plaid pyjamas. He'd taken a shower so his hair was still damp and hung softly on his forehead. He had reading glasses on and was surrounded by a pile of doc.u.ments. He looked so stunning, she almost choked on her tears.

Shen looked up startled as he saw Lina's frail little figure burst in, shivering, tears streaming down her face. His heart hurt just looking at her beautiful, yet sorry state. Before he could get up from his chair to rush over to her, she launched herself like a bullet into his arms.
