Please Confess to me

Chapter 11

In the guest room on the second floor.

Shen Xi stood in the middle of the room, surrounded by presents. She was surprised at the number of gifts around her and said, "We received so many gifts."

Su Hang leaned against the door frame and looked at all the gift boxes in the room. He became surprised when he saw Shen Xi's smiling face, and tentatively asked: "Do you like them?"

"Of course I like them. Anyone would be happy to receive a gift." Shen Xi said with a chuckle.

Hearing this, Su Hang's rigid face gradually softened.

These wedding gifts have been piled in this room for nearly a week. Su Hang had very few friends, so most of the presents were from Shen Xi's family and friends. But ever since they got married, Shen Xi hadn't asked about them once. He had figured that it was because Shen Xi felt bitter against their marriage, so these presents were also seen in an unfavorable light. Now that Shen Xi suddenly said that she liked these gifts, Su Hang had a thought that maybe she wasn't that bitter about their marriage.

"There aren't a lot of presents with cards. I guess we'll only find out who the sender is after opening them." Shen Xi picked up a few boxes and looked over them.

"Un." This time, Su Hang walked over and picked up a gift too.

"It looks like this is going to take a while." Shen Xi looked around and saw that even the desk and chairs were full of presents, and there was no place to sit. So, in the end, she sat on the carpet and leaned on the foot of the bed. She picked up a pink gift box and unwrapped it.

Shen Xi ripped the packaging, revealing a black jewelry box inside. She opened the box and took out the card inside. "It's a pair of diamond earrings from Amy. It's gorgeous."

Shen Xi turned the box, intending to show the newly received diamond earrings to Su Hang as she spoke. When she lifted her head, she found Su Hang squatting in front of her with a pillow in his hand, and was leaning towards her.

"It's beautiful." Su Hang noticed Shen Xi's body slightly retreat because of his close proximity, and his eyes darkened. He handed the pillow to Shen Xi and said: "The ground is cold."

"Ah? Oh." Shen Xi was surprised and took a while to react. She then put down the diamond earrings she was holding and accepted the pillow from Su Hang.

After Shen Xi took the pillow, Su Hang took a step back. He then sat on the ground like Shen Xi and helped her open the gifts.

Shen Xi put the pillow beneath her and thought that it was a lot more comfortable than sitting on the carpet. She looked at Su Hang, who was looking through a gift. Shen Xi happily said: "Thank you."

"This is a jade bracelet from Song Zong of HaoYuan Technology." Su Hang didn't say anything else, and just handed the gift he had opened to Shen Xi.

"Oh, that can be put up in a charity sale someday." Shen Xi took the gift box.

"Un." Su Hang nodded, his mindset being 'I don’t have an opinion, whatever you decide is good.' He then picked up another gift to open.

Shen Xi secretly glanced at Su Hang and saw that he seemingly didn't react to what she had just said. Feeling somewhat disappointed, she bowed her head and concentrated on opening another gift.

Su Hang didn't care about the actual gifts but instead wanted to look at the cards. Honestly, the words written in the cards were pretty much the same. They were all blessings along the lines of 'may you live a long and happy life together,' or 'wishing you to have a child soon' and so on. But Su Hang liked these standard greetings very much. He patiently read every single one, each card touching his heart.
