President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 251

Ming got in the car, too.

He drove me away.

I was in the passenger seat and through the right rear-view mirror I saw Sean standing still.

The car stopped at the parking space downstairs of Ming’s house. He got off first and opened the door for me.

He reached for me with one hand. “Be careful.”

“Thank you.” I put my hand on Ming’s and stood up.

With Ming’s help, I limped into the elevator.

In the elevator, I told Ming about the recent project.

Because my clothes were all wet. When we got to the door, Ming took out the key to my room and asked me, “you have your old clothes in your house. I’ll bring one for you. You take a bath in my house.”

Bathing was an awkward and special thing. I leaned against the door of my house. “I can go back to my house and take a bath first, and then I’ll go to your house and let you check my foot.”

As I said that, I wanted to get the key.

Ming hid the key behind him, smiled and shook his head. “I’m sorry, you can’t.”

“Why?”

“You hurt your foot so I don’t trust you to bathe alone.” Ming said. He took out the key to open my house for me. He went to change his shoes first and helped me to take my slippers. He said, “don’t worry, I won’t peek when you bathe.”

His words made me blush.

Ming brought me a chair and set it aside for me to sit down. I realized he was going to change my shoes, and I said, “I’ll do it.”

“It’s okay. I’ll do it.”

He put his hand on my hand and stopped me.

He changed my slippers for me.

When I entered my house, I found that although I hadn’t come back in five years, this house was not old.

The whole room was spotless.

The bed was covered with beige cartoon bedding, which was new at a glance.

I pointed to the bedding. “This is...”

“Every month, I will find someone to clean and change the bedding. Because the previous bedding was washed too many times, it broke, so I bought a new one for you.” After Ming finished, he looked at me and asked in a gentle voice, “do you like it?”

Looking at the cute kitten head on the bedding, I couldn’t help smiling and nodding, “yes, but I’m thirty. If I use this pattern, will I be laughed at?”

“Why?” Ming came up to me and reached out and touched my hair. He looked at me with gentle and firm eyes and said, “you are always a child in front of me, and it doesn’t matter if you don’t grow up.”

His tone was serious and not perfunctory at all.

I looked at him and felt somehow secure.

I went to my room alone and looked at my clothes five years ago.

In recent years, I had learned from Murray and got in touch with some historical knowledge. I liked classical clothes more and more. They were comfortable to wear and made me elegant.

Murray didn’t like it at first, but he gradually liked it under my influence.

I hadn’t worn these clothes in the wardrobe for a long time.

I casually took out a T-shirt and skirt and a set of underwear.

Besides these, I also took out a bath towel.

When I went to the bathroom to get the bath towel, I found that there were all kinds of skin care products on the wash basin, which were brand new.

And there was shampoo on the side shelf.

I couldn’t help being stunned.

“Ming, these skin care products...” I shouted out.

Ming knew that I had finished taking things, so he came in from outside. When he saw the skincare products I pointed to, he was not surprised and explained, “I’ve been thinking about when you might come back to live, so I’ve been helping you buy skincare products, but I don’t understand women’s things. The nurses in the hospital recommended them to me.”
