I Do!

On the other hand, Zhen Xiu was using her consciousness to inspect her space. She was able to access her space and clearly see everything happening inside it.

To Lu Jian, she looked like she was sleeping but she was able to hear his promise while checking her space.

She could access her space now.

But the question was why?

Zoru had informed her earlier that it was not possible?

This was a good thing actually if she can really use her space here too. She focused on her non-stabilized soul and was baffled to see this much progress in just mere few days. How was she recovering so fast?

Although it was dangerous to walk on this path without the help of Zoru she really wanted to know about this and for that, she would do whatever it takes to unveil the mystery.

After carefully analyzing her spiritual link she noticed something else connected to it. There was a light colored thread which was connected to her spiritual link and in turn nourishing its damaged powers.

(Oh! This is the reason for my recovery. Does that mean that the original Zhen Xiu has given her everything to help her soul? Why?)

She wanted to know about this matter but Zoru was not here at the moment to tell her about this.

(I should find it out on my own. I don't need his help. When am I ever depended on others to look after me?) She consoled herself.

Now that she was able to access this space then she could use the library to find about her queries. This new life was a complete mystery to her; there are many things which were hidden here and there.

(Can I enter inside the space without creating something major?) She thought.

But it was impossible for now because her powers although were repairing her soul and spiritual energy; it was not enough to enter inside the space.

It would take too much of her time if she searched in form of her soul.

She was annoyed because of these silly problems.

(What can be done now? Oh! Yes, I can use the soul technique and separate my soul from the body to enter inside the space.)

She decided that she will try this after a few days when her spiritual energy was out of danger. Anyway, that conscious link will definitely heal her at a fast pace.

She opened her eyes after searching her space.

Zhen Xiu saw that Lu Jian was looking at her with a soft look on his face. While she was inspecting her space he had promised to protect her and after that, he didn't say anything more. She believed that he might have slept after his sincere promise.

"You are awake." She asked him gently.

Lu Jian continued to glance at her. He wanted to capture this moment in his memory, her serene look and lazy eyes looking him; her soft lips whispering at him.

"Hmm…"

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Zhen Xiu asked him unconsciously, his stare was making her feel weird. She wanted to turn away from his intense gaze but was not able to turn away from him. It felt like he has locked her in this place.

"Like what?" Lu Jian asked her.

"Like, you want to… trap me here!" She responded breathlessly.

Lu Jian moved closer and whispered in her ears: "I do!"

Zhen Xiu took a deep breath after he confirmed her thoughts; his closeness was making her feel strange emotions. She could feel her heart racing faster, her body was sensitive due to his nearness.

"I want to cage you here for eternity." Lu Jian whispered softly, held her hands and brought near his heart: "Feel it! Can you see why I want that?"

Zhen Xiu shook her head dismissively.

"Because I want to be caged in your eyes too!" he revealed. "I want to spend my life with you together and away from this world."

Zhen Xiu's eyes reddened after he whispered those words. No one in her entire life has said something like this to her. She had tears in her eyes, not because of these words but because of the emotions, she saw in Lu Jian's eyes.

Once, she too had these emotions in her eyes. She wanted her mother like this. Even though their feelings were different from each other; she wanted her mother's love and he wants his wife reciprocal.

But both of them needed love - the silly emotion that has only given her pain.

"Hmm…" She chuckled to hide her wet eyes.

"Really sentimental Lu Jian." Zhen Xiu teased him.

Lu Jian didn't say anything but took her in his arms. He inhaled her sweet fragrance and said, "These are my feelings. Take your time and I will wait for you."

Zhen Xiu turned in his arms and wrapped her arms around his waist. She came closer to him and stuck her head in his neck.

"It is not easy to change my heart." She told him truthfully.

"I am really ambitious." Lu Jian confidently told her. He warned her, "You need to be careful. You never know when I will win your heart and take it from you."

Zhen Xiu smiled this time and kissed his Adam's apple sensually, teasing him: "Well bring it on. I planned to do the same. May the best man win?"

"Yeah, may the best man win?" Lu Jian accepted. "Wife, don't tease your husband now!"

Zhen Xiu continued her ministration on him without paying any heed to his warning.

"What teasing? I am exercising my rights." Zhen Xiu joked.

"Well, in that case, I should also use my rights!" Lu Jian responded.

A/N

This is regarding my updating schedule. As you guys know that I am a student and my updating schedule is rather weird. As a reader, I know you hate it when I don't give you regular updates and trust me I also feel the same when I read a book and the author is not updating fast enough. I know it feels really bad.

But I really have a major problem because I am a biology/law/physics/chemistry student and this gives me like less than 6 hours to rest. Although my typing speed is fast I don't get enough time to write more than 1 chapter a day and now that my exams are approaching it is being really difficult for me.

I am not telling you all this to gain your sympathy or as an excuse of not giving you stable updates but explaining my position and difficulties.

I don't have any stockpiles for my story so the updating schedule becomes like this when I don't get any time to write a new chapter.

So, after my ranting, I want to inform you that I will keep on updating daily for now.

You guys want mass release and this makes me feel good because it means you are loving this story but due to my busy schedule I am not able to do it at the moment.

When this story reaches 1M views then I will give you a mass release.

Thanks for reading my story and my annoying note. I hope you guys have a nice day.
