Zhang Linghui naturally didn't see this scene, and even if she had, she wouldn't have said anything.

Anyway, it's not her who's in pain.

As for Gu Bin, sorry, he's thick-skinned and tough. What's wrong with taking a few kicks?

Right now, she was gazing at Yu Yuehui with deep affection, sighing inwardly, "Why isn't Yuehui a man? If only Yuehui were a man, or even if she were a man, that would be great! She would definitely do everything in her power to squeeze out Xie Yan and snatch Yuehui away."

If Xie Yan knew what Zhang Linghui was thinking right now, he would probably kick her out on the spot.

Night fell like a giant black ribbon, gently enveloping the entire village.

Moonlight streamed through the cracks in the window, spilling onto the kang (a heated brick bed) in the bedroom, adding a hazy, silvery glow to the room.

Xie Yan lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

Countless times, he opened his mouth, wanting to tell his wife to stay away from Zhang Linghui, but he swallowed the words back.

How could he possibly say that?

Should we just say that Zhang Linghui is after her daughter-in-law?

The key point is that even if I told Yu Yuehui, she definitely wouldn't believe me.

The main reason was that he didn't want to interfere with his wife's social life.

Although he knew that as long as he spoke, even without a reason, Yu Yuehui would definitely listen to him and stay away from Zhang Linghui from then on.

But that was a friend that Yu Yuehui had finally made. You could tell from the smiles on her face when she was with Zhang Linghui that she really liked this friend.

Xie Yan didn't want to ruin his wife's friendship because of his unfounded speculation, so he could only keep it to himself, which made him feel miserable.

Because she had been holding this matter in her heart, Xie Yan completely lacked her usual gentleness and consideration during their intimate moments tonight. She kept her head down and only cared about herself, like a tireless machine.

This is so unlike Xie Yan's personality. He used to be very attentive to the feelings of both of them in this regard, and this situation has never happened before.

Fortunately, the two were already an old married couple, and even without verbal communication, Yu Yuehui did not feel uncomfortable.

But Xie Yan's unusual behavior still caught her attention.

Yu Yue thought back on what had happened during the day, but couldn't figure out who had upset him.

She gently turned to the side, reached out and hugged Xie Yan's arm, her voice soft, "What's wrong?"

Is something on your mind?

Xie Yan sighed softly, reached out and pulled her into his arms, his voice tinged with helplessness: "It's nothing, I was just being petty and made myself feel bad. Don't worry about it, go to sleep."

"Get some sleep, you'll be fine tomorrow."

That's how he comforted himself: there's nothing you can't forget the next day after a good night's sleep.

Upon hearing "petty," Yu Yuehui instantly recalled Zhang Linghui's words from earlier that day. She couldn't help but chuckle softly and teased, "You're not jealous of Linghui, are you?"

Seeing her still smiling so happily, Xie Yan felt a sudden surge of anger for no reason and said irritably, "Shouldn't you be?"

Yu Yuehui was a little confused, looking at him with a puzzled expression: "You're really jealous? She's a girl, isn't she?"

Xie Yan's eyes widened, and he wanted to say, "What's wrong with girls? Girls need to be guarded against too!"

But when it came to his lips, he managed to hold back.

Don't hurt yourself.

"She also said that if you were a man, she would shamelessly marry you!" Xie Yan muttered, her tone full of jealousy.

Yu Yuehui couldn't help but chuckle, and looked at Xie Yan gently in the moonlight streaming through the window, "That was just her joking around, you don't need to take it to heart."

Xie Yan remained silent, perhaps because of his bizarre rebirth experience, he was particularly concerned about Zhang Linghui's words.

She couldn't help but think to herself: If Zhang Linghui were a man, would she still have a chance?

Seeing that Xie Yan was truly interested, Yu Yue quickly wiped the smile off her face, tilted her head slightly, and gently kissed Xie Yan's lips, saying softly, "Are you silly? If I were a man, then you would definitely be a woman, and I would still fall in love with you."

Xie Yan was still somewhat skeptical.

If Yu Yuehui were a man, with her forthright, generous, and kind personality, she would definitely be very sought after.

Looking at myself, I have a laid-back personality. To put it nicely, I'm easygoing; to put it bluntly, I'm a lazy bum. Moreover, I'm the kind of person who's too lazy to turn things around. Plus, I'm a bit socially anxious, so I have trouble interacting with people. Where do I have any competitiveness?

Seeing that Xie Yan still looked sullen even after she had said all that, Yu Yue felt a little anxious and said cautiously, "Then, then I won't get so close to Ling Hui anymore."

Upon hearing this, Xie Yan felt even worse. He quickly grabbed her hand and said earnestly, "No, that's your friend. Don't let my actions affect your relationship."

Yu Yuehui didn't think so. She nuzzled her head against Xie Yan's shoulder and said in a coquettish tone, "You are the most important!"

Xie Yan felt a warmth in his heart and couldn't help but reach out and pinch her cheek. Although he felt sweet inside, he still reminded her, "You are the most important person!"

Being love-struck is a bad thing.

Yu Yue hugged Xie Yan tightly, and couldn't help but chuckle softly, "Xie Xiaoyan, do you know what I like most about you?"

Xie Yan thought for a moment, then a slight smile appeared on his lips, revealing a hint of smugness. "Good-looking?"

Yu Yuehui laughed again. She knew Xie Yanye would say that. This guy always thought that she wanted to marry him because he was good-looking.

When Xie Yan saw her smile, he couldn't help but frown, feeling a little puzzled: Isn't that right?

Why is that?

It can't be that he has personal charisma; even Xie Yan himself doesn't quite believe that.

Someone like him, a total shut-in and a bit socially awkward, has nowhere to show off his charm, no matter what!

Moreover, he remembered that he had only been in the countryside for a few days when he received food from Yu Yuehui, this chubby girl.

Moreover, that was when he was at his lowest point, and he didn't have the opportunity to showcase his personal charm.

Yu Yuehui couldn't hold back this time and laughed. Afraid of waking Chaochao who was sleeping soundly next to her, she tried to suppress her laughter. Her hot breath sprayed on Xie Yan's neck, making it tickle.

“If I really liked good-looking people, I would definitely choose Shen Jianguo! He is the best-looking of all of you educated youth.”

"No, I should say she's the most beautiful person I've ever seen in my life."

Xie Yan: "..."

That's so heartbreaking! Although he had to admit that Shen Jianguo was indeed a rare handsome man, he himself was a good-looking young man too!

snort!

Shen Jianguo is just a weak and frail pretty boy!

Forehead!

It seems I've been given the nickname "pretty boy" too!

Waaaaah!

This made him feel even worse!
