" So it's final, that you want to become a doctor? That too Chinese medicine doctor?"
She pursed her lips and nodded.
He took a deep breath and sighed.
" I can't believe that my wife is so talented. The skills that she learnt for interest, are going to become her profession." He plopped on the bed with a thump and stared at the ceiling in daze.
It was still hard for him to digest this news.
Xie Ming looked at him in hesitation and waited for him to ask more questions. She was expecting him to ask many questions such as, how can her skills be so good if she just learned medicine as an interest? Why did Mr. Su want her to become a doctor when they only met for the first time?
How can he believe her skills when he met her for the first time?
There are many more questions that she was waiting for him to ask but he didn't say anything.
She stared at him who was laying on the bed in daze and wondered what he was thinking.
" Ermm... Liwei..if you have something to say then say. Please don't…" she wanted to tell him to not keep inside anything when he suddenly pulled her towards him.
He stared at her with a gentle gaze and said, " I am proud of you." He rubbed her head lovingly while taking her into his embrace.
"-_-"
His reaction confused her because she wasn't expecting this at all.
" What...are.."
" I am glad that you made this decision. Entertainment industry doesn't suit you anyway. My wife can do much better things in life rather than just acting in front of the camera."
He said in a gentle voice while hugging her tighter and patting her head.
He wasn't asking her anything instead he was complimenting her for her decision?
" Liwei…" her voice choked up hearing his words. She knows that he might be confused but he decided to not ask her anything.
Liwei smiled and patted her on her back. It's not that he was not confused or doesn't have any questions.
She suddenly became an amazing cook, and knows Chinese medicine. These things are too strange.
Her character also changed a lot. Everything is so strange but...he doesn't want to ask her anything.
He feels that... it's better to keep things like this as they are. Sometimes knowing too much can also make things complicated.
….
They both laid on the bed together to sleep. She felt much more comfortable after she told him about her decision to become a doctor.
She was cuddling him to sleep, and was about to go into a slumber when she heard his voice.
" Asleep?"
She shook her head and raised her head to look at him.
" Why are you not sleeping yet?" She asked in a low voice.
He looked at her and said, " I was thinking about the things that you just said."
She froze but nodded and waited for him to complete his words.
" You know, you can cancel the contract even before the one year. After all, global World is Jin corporation's subsidiary company. I will handle everything about the contract. You don't need to force yourself to complete this contracted period."
She looked at his serious face and a smile appeared on her lips.
" No, it's fine. I am not forcing myself. I am pretty comfortable doing acting as well. However, I think I fit better as a doctor. So I will use this time to explore this industry since I am already in this. Meanwhile, I can study for the exam. I think this plan is better than cancelling the contract."
" Otherwise, people will say that I am just wasting my husband's money and using his status." She chuckled as she made circles in his chest with her finger.
" Why are you worrying about people? You are my wife. And I am giving you permission to use my money and status. You don't need to think about anything else."
' How can this man be so sweet?'
" Oh, I just remembered one more thing."
Xie Ming looked at him in confusion, when he said, " If you change your profession, then we wouldn't have to hide the news of our marriage. I can freely announce to the world that you're Mrs.Jin, my wife." He pinched her nose and gave her a peck on it.
Her face blushed when she heard his words. She didn't think about this thing but she can see that there are many benefits if she changes her profession.
They wouldn't have to hide their marriage to others as well
…..
Liwei looked at the time and it's 3 am. He sighed as he couldn't sleep at all.
He looked at the girl who was sleeping peacefully in his arms.
He pursed his lips and creases appeared on his forehead.
He hugged her tighter as he remembered the words of that woman. He never thought much about it before but now seems like, everything that woman said was true.
He closed his eyes as he remembered the day when that woman came to his office.
The day Xie Ming performed acupuncture on that pregnant lady, the very next day, a strange lady came to his office looking for him.
He spotted that woman arguing with the receptionist when he was leaving the office for the meeting. He wanted to ignore her but when he heard that she wanted to talk about his wife, he stopped in his tracks.
He looked at the woman again and saw that she was carrying herself pretty well. Even though she was wearing cheap clothes, her expressions were calm and composed.
He asked Gu Shao to send this woman to his office. He decided to talk to this woman before leaving for his meeting.
..
When he went to his office, he saw that the woman was sitting on the sofa and was not even drinking the tea served by his secretary.
He looked at the woman in disdain and asked, " Who are you? And what do you want to talk about my wife?"
Not many people knew about his marriage and almost nobody at the office knew about Xie Ming at that time because she never visited the office.
He was surprised that she knows that he is married and was wondering what she wanted to talk about Xie Ming.
" Mr. Liwei, it's nice to meet you. You might think that I am a strange woman. But trust me, I am not someone strange. My name is Shen Jia." She smiled as she looked at him directly without even blinking her eyes.
