Gu Xingze stared blankly as he raised his eyes, which were covered in tears, and sniffed.
"What did you say?"
Su Jin walked away, lay down on the sofa, and held up the box she had just finished eating.
"Do you want some? Should I order you a duck?"
Gu Xingze's tears were still on his face, and he looked blank.
She was too lazy to argue with him anymore and let him process it on his own.
Gu Xingze silently stood up, wiped his face, and whispered, "Wife, I'm sorry."
Su Jin jumped up, her face pale. "Why do you think I would order duck? How could I possibly order something so dirty?"
She felt deeply offended.
Lin Shi lowered her head and thought about the saddest thing in her life before she could finally stop laughing.
Gu Xingze seemed to feel embarrassed as well, blushing and remaining silent.
Lin Shi tried to smooth things over, "Even if she really did hire a male prostitute, so what? Which woman doesn't go out and have fun? It's all just playing around. Only you are her rightful husband. What more could you want?"
Gu Xingze nodded, seemingly persuaded.
Su Jin rubbed her temples in annoyance. "You don't even ask any questions before you start making a scene. It's really embarrassing."
Especially since Lin Shi witnessed the whole thing, it provided her with even more laughs...
Her voice wasn't loud, but every word struck his nerves like a heavy hammer.
Ignoring the presence of outsiders, Gu Xingze pleaded in a humble voice, "Don't hate me, I was wrong, wife..."
He cautiously tried to pull her finger, but Su Jin shoved him away.
Did I tell you to touch me?
Gu Xingze's face turned pale, and he hesitantly withdrew his hand.
The atmosphere remained deadlocked.
Lin Shi secretly yawned; she was too sleepy.
Gu Xingze lowered his head and asked Su Jin, "Wife, are you sleepy? Are you tired? Let's go to sleep."
Su Jin's eyebrows arched into a deep frown. "What do you mean 'we'? Of course you should sleep outside. You shouldn't have come back today in the first place."
Gu Xingze knew he had upset her today, so he didn't dare say anything more and could only nod awkwardly in agreement, "Yes, yes, I shouldn't have come back."
After saying that, he got up and left.
Actually, he hasn't changed anything since he first came in, so it's quite convenient for him to leave now.
Before leaving, he jogged over and gently said to Su Jin, "I'm leaving now, goodnight, wife. Don't be angry because of me, it's not good for your health."
The door closed.
Lin Shi asked her with amusement, "You just let him go like that?"
"Do you really want him to stay?"
"No, I thought I'd see it live today."
Lin Shi gave a meaningful smile.
Su Jin sighed and rubbed her forehead. "Is there anything else in your head besides these?"
Su Jin's shoulders slumped down as if deflated.
"It's so annoying! He's like a complaining husband all the time, constantly asking me if I love him. He keeps asking and asking, and he's going to break this family apart!"
Lin Shi asked her, "You don't love him, so why did you...do that with him?"
"Who wouldn't want something that's offered to them?"
Lin Shi slowly widened her eyes, leaned back, and extended a thumbs up.
Su Jin suddenly thought of something and slapped her thigh.
"What if he's not clean either? He should get a full checkup!"
"Eh? You're comparing him to those gigolos outside?"
Su Jin shrugged. "So what? What if he's not as clean as the ducks outside?"
Lin Shi smiled but didn't say anything.
...
The next day.
As soon as Su Jin opened the door, she saw Gu Xingze pacing back and forth at the entrance.
"Why do you still have such a strong sense of infidelity even after getting married?"
Gu Xingze wanted to take her hand, but then pulled it back.
"Yeah, I just wanted to see if you'd calmed down. Can I go home tonight?"
"Whatever."
Gu Xingze straightened up slightly, as if he had been pardoned, and his voice was filled with joy.
"You're so good to me, my wife is the best. I'm going to work now, bye-bye, my wife."
Su Jin stopped him, "By the way, you should get a physical exam, a full-body check-up to see if you have... that kind of disease. Until then, don't touch me."
Gu Xingze stumbled and almost fell.
Ignoring his disheveled suit collar, he strode over to her and asked, "What do you mean, honey?"
Su Jin stood on the steps, looking down at him expressionlessly, and said, "The literal meaning."
Gu Xingze forced a smile that looked more like a grimace. "How could I be unclean... Wife, wife, you know, I gave you my first time."
Su Jin remained expressionless and asked him calmly, "So what? I'm not a mind reader, and I can't be sure if you've been messing around outside."
The atmosphere was tense.
Gu Xingze turned his head away in embarrassment. "Fine, you win. I would never say such hurtful things to you."
He turned his back completely and said in a very soft voice, "I'm going to get a medical check-up today. I'll show you the report."
He opened the car parked in front of his house, paused, and said with difficulty.
"I'm not dirty."
I watched the car drive away.
Lin Shi peeked out from behind her, "Who is it? Is it him again?"
Su Jin gave a dismissive "Ah," and said, "Making him go for a physical exam is like asking him to die. Could he really be hiding something from me?"
Lin Shi pondered.
"No way, does that mean he's always acting? His acting is so good, he could be nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor."
The cell phone in my pocket rang.
The caller ID shows "Brother".
Lin Shi suddenly spoke up, "Actually, it's not unreasonable for him to always suspect that you will cheat on me."
"So what? Marriage cannot go against my parents' wishes, but I must make my own decisions about extramarital affairs."
"ah?"
He made a shushing gesture at Lin Shi and chuckled, "I was just kidding."
When Xie Yunhuai answered the phone, his voice was gentle, "Xiao Jin, are you guys resting?"
"Oh, right, I was too tired yesterday and forgot to tell you."
Xie Yunhuai quickly said, "It's alright. Are you still tired today? Let me show you something."
Su Jin answered politely, "I'm not tired anymore, I slept for a long time."
After hesitating for a moment, she still asked, "Brother, is Auntie alright? I'm so sorry for troubling you. I should have paid her a visit."
Xie Yunhuai lowered his eyes and looked at the injury on his forearm.
"It's okay, Xiao Jin, you don't need to apologize to me. You're all I have left..."
"Huh? What did you say?"
"It's nothing, Xiao Jin just came out for a bit, she has a gift for you."
