An earthquake caused Jiang Xia, who had just written his name on a divorce agreement, to be reborn into a parallel world. Just as he planned to make up for his past regrets, he suddenly discovered ...
The private room was quite dark, and Lin Yanwan couldn't see anyone for a moment, so she called out to Jiang Xia.
"Hmm?" he answered softly, almost instinctively.
The next second, the lights in the private room came on, and Lin Yanwan saw Jiang Xia sleeping on the sofa chair, and she breathed a sigh of relief for no reason.
"Phew, I thought you weren't here."
She walked over to Jiang Xia in two steps, and seeing his still swollen cheeks, she felt very distressed: "How are you? Does it still hurt?"
"I feel much better now." Jiang Xia opened his eyes, looked at his wife's concerned eyes, and forced a smile.
She slowly raised her hand and touched the injured spot. Jiang Xia squinted and reflexively turned away.
"Dad, really, why did you hit so hard?" Lin Yanwan said with heartache. She would never hit him like that unless it was in bed.
"Isn't it all to protect you? He's an old father, I can understand."
Jiang Xia gently placed her hand on her face and rubbed it: "Speaking of which, it's my fault. If I hadn't been lusting after your feet, you wouldn't have fallen, we wouldn't have hugged each other, and Dad wouldn't have seen me on top of you and given me a loving father's lecture. In another timeline, maybe my father-in-law and I would have been having a friendly conversation."
"Alright, don't take all the blame on yourself." Lin Yanwan took out Yunnan Baiyao from her pocket and said softly, "I'll spray some medicine on your eyes now, it's specially for treating sprains and bruises."
Jiang Xia glanced at the old box, which didn't look newly bought: "Did Dad give it to you?"
"How did you know?" She was slightly surprised, as she didn't think she had told him.
“The fact that Dad let you out means that his anger has subsided. Although his first impression of me as his son-in-law wasn’t good, he’s not the kind of person with a violent temper. He might still be regretting it, but he can’t bear to lose face by having you bring this Yunnan Baiyao to me. It’s actually a way of apologizing to me.”
Jiang Xia saw through these matters perfectly, or rather, he understood his father-in-law's character perfectly. How could he possibly break up his daughter's cherished relationship? Wouldn't that create a lifelong rift between father and daughter?
As a loving father, this is even more painful than beating his daughter.
"You've taken my punch and said those things, have you learned your lesson yet? Next time you're home, don't just try to hit me all day long. My dad said if he can beat you once, he can beat you twice." Lin Yanwan couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.
"I'll remember, but I'll do it again next time," Jiang Xia said earnestly.
Lin Yanwan glared at him: "You want to get beaten up again?"
"Let him fight if he wants. I know Dad can't stand seeing his hard-earned cabbage being eaten by a pig. Since that's the case, let him watch it more often, and he'll get used to it," Jiang Xia said cheekily.
Lin Yanwan blushed: "You're the one who got taken advantage of by a pig!"
"If you're willing to admit you're a pig, then I can be a cabbage. I guarantee that if you offer me some, I'll squeal once; if you keep rooting around, I'll keep squealing." He chuckled.
"???"
What indecent words! With her face swollen like that, she still dared to flirt with her. Humph, she deserved to be beaten!
"Close your eyes!" she said irritably.
Jiang Xia obediently closed his eyes. Lin Yanwan shielded his eyes with her hand, then sprayed Yunnan Baiyao (a traditional Chinese medicine) on the swollen area of his face. She carefully wiped away any spilled medicine with a tissue to prevent it from getting into his mouth.
She looked at Jiang Xia's naturally pursed lips, gently leaned down, and softly pressed her delicate lips to his.
Jiang Xia stiffened for a moment, then wrapped his arms around her and responded passionately.
The lights were turned off at some point, and in the dark room, their lips met, the kiss was especially intense, interspersed with soft panting, and a sweet fragrance quietly filled their mouths.
After a long while, Jiang Xia gently cupped his wife's face and stroked it, saying, "What's this? Do you feel I've been wronged, so you're giving me a special reward?"
"Thank you," Lin Yanwan said softly.
She knew in her heart that everything Jiang Xia had endured today was for her sake; if it weren't true love, he would have quit long ago.
“Baby, we are husband and wife. I didn’t even sign that divorce agreement. Even if I’m reborn and all traces of the past are erased, it can’t hide the fact that we were once husband and wife. I married you in my past life, and I want to marry you again in this life.”
"Um……"
Feeling his genuine love, Lin Yanwan hugged his neck and pulled Jiang Xia into her arms, as if a mountain had turned into a plain.
"Now, you can be a little more unrestrained with me..." she whispered shyly in his ear, her warm, moist breath brushing against his cheek, making his heart flutter.
Jiang Xia kissed her down her jade-like neck without hesitation.
She tilted her head back and let out a soft moan: "Wait... the door..."
◇
Chen Yao stared silently at the monitor screen. There were no cameras installed in the private room, but after Lin Yanwan went in, the lights in the room turned on and off, and the system host did not show that the two of them were surfing the Internet.
Most importantly, the door to the private room was quietly closed.
Her heart skipped a beat. Could it be true? Those two wouldn't be so bold as to be so brazenly intimate in an internet cafe, especially with the injury on his face. He couldn't possibly be thinking about something indecent at a time like this.
However, it's hard to say. Couples with a very good relationship are most likely to get emotional in the dark, mainly because it's also particularly exciting.
She hesitated whether to knock on the door or try to remind the two of their behavior, because if they were discovered, it would probably be on the front page of tomorrow's Chongqing Morning Post.
Shocking! A couple who got into Tsinghua University were doing *that* in a private room at an internet cafe!
But after thinking about it, I decided against it and hoped they locked the door when they were being intimate.
Time passed slowly, and about ten minutes later, Lin Yanwan sneaked out of the private room, looked around cautiously, and headed towards the restroom.
Chen Yao stared blankly at the monitor screen. As a future law student, even though the video quality was poor, her body language immediately revealed that she had something to hide.
In those ten minutes, which were neither too long nor too short, the two of them must have done something blush-inducing in the private room.
I never would have guessed, Lao Jiang, you're really daring, aren't you? You seem to enjoy thrills, don't you?
Chen Yao calmly withdrew her gaze, pondering how to use the existing evidence to lock him up in the orange, and how to act as Jiang Xia's defense lawyer to plead his innocence.
For a moment, the two little figures in my mind were locked in a fierce battle.
...
(I've been so busy these past few days, I haven't had a moment to spare. I was thinking of taking a break because this is a once-in-a-lifetime event, but after thinking about it, I decided I had to post a chapter no matter what. And finally, my mother-in-law and father-in-law are the best in the world!)
