A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 353

She quickly retracts her hand.

She can't see his expression in the dark. He takes out two tissues and gives them to her, saying, "It is just a movie...."

"I know you're going to say 'real wars are crueler than movies', right?" Lily wipes her tears with the tissues and says with discontent, "You used to say the same thing. Aren't you tired of it? Besides, I can't help when I cry. I am not disturbing you. You keep watching."

John says, "I can't have you cry for me, let alone a movie. It's better you save your tears for me, because it will be worth it."

Lily is so angry that she has trouble speaking. "Look at who is an expert in debating. I can't beat you."

"Am I wrong?"

"Yes, you are right." Lily grabs a handful of popcorn and stuffs it into his mouth, threatening, "Focus on the movie. If you stop me from crying again, I'll put you to bed!"

John, who is gagged with popcorn, can't utter a sound.

Lily watches the movie while weeping silently. Tissues pile on the table. At the end of the movie, she is sleepy and closes her eyes slowly.

Her head tilting, she leans on John's shoulder.

He turns off the projector. After adapting to the darkness, he carries her upstairs steadily and puts her on her bed gently, turning on the bed lamp on the nightstand.

The warm yellow light shone on her face. She has lost a lot of weight these days helping him. Her chin is sharp, and her eyelashes cast a small shadow under her eyes. She is sleeping soundly.

John sits on the bed and stares at her for a long time. He only sees her, as if nothing were around.

He reaches out his hand and carefully touches her cheek. He does not dare to make big movements, as if afraid she will wake up. Then, he bends down and kisses her lips, reluctant to leave her.

"Good night, my princess."

'I wish you a good dream in the long night. I hope I am in it.'

...

The next day is hotter and sunny.

After breakfast, Lily works with John in the garden with some tools. John is building a greenhouse. She reads the planting manual to make the right potions and digs up the dirt.

Lily was afraid John couldn't do dirty work because he was spoiled. To her surprise, John reads the construction plan and quickly builds a greenhouse, which is quite strong.

Lily gives him a thumbs up and says, "I have to call you Mr. Almighty now!"

Planting Flower is tiring. It takes them a few hours to build the greenhouse. They rest for a while at noon. Lily cooks pork belly soup and fine dishes. After dinner, they go back to work in the garden.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, green roses are finally planted in the warm greenhouse.

They have dirt on their hands and faces. They look at each other and crack up. After cleaning up, they go shopping in the supermarket and malls.

Lily and John live in the "Green Ivy Garden" on Randulas Road now. They would go out for a jog in the morning if it is sunny and read at home or play puzzle games together in the afternoon.

Occasionally, Lily will take him out for a stroll, try the cuisine of those fancy restaurants, and buy some new clothes. However, John says the cuisine is not delicious, so they take turns cooking at home.

Lily doesn't forget to follow up the Ixora's research. She would text the blonde man called Bruce once in a while for updates.

Time quickly passes. She and John have lived in the 'Green Ivy Garden' for half a month.

On this day, Lily still wakes up early. When she tries to take the milk from the refrigerator, she smells something fishy and has stomachache. Then she runs to the sink and vomits.
