Chapter 41 "Are you taking a shower now?"

When did you first fall in love with Li Fuzheng?

It was long before the time when he was bullied by Xu Moti and was at a loss in the classroom.

But in the beginning, it was more of a young girl's inner thoughts of first love, which she would only secretly hide in her diary that night. Apart from that, there was nothing more.

Occasionally, I would pass by a tall, thin, and stern boy in the classroom, and my subconscious reaction would be to lower my head and hide.

After he has walked away, I look back and feel the throbbing heartbeat of passing by him.

Most people's secret love is just like this. They dare not reveal it at all so as not to be noticed by others. It is shameful and difficult to express, and it must be an ultimate secret.

If nothing unexpected happens, the person you have a crush on will not even know of her existence from beginning to end until he or she chooses a partner to spend the rest of his or her life with.

The secret admirer can only perform a one-man show with no one watching, and feel sad in secret.

However, when she was alone and helpless, Li Fuzheng descended from the sky and saved her like a superhero.

"I can't stand your behavior."

"You are a policeman? Is it your turn to judge her?"

"My words will count until graduation."

Every word is engraved in the soul.

It is almost impossible to let go of that feeling. Perhaps for the rest of your life, you will compare every person you meet with him, and then come to the conclusion that everyone in this world is just like him.

This is how the story should have developed.

But at a certain moment when Meng Liyue was completely unprepared, she became the partner chosen by Li Fuzheng.

If she didn't like him, how could she make such a resolute decision to marry him?

Meng Liyue felt a surge of reckless courage in her heart. At worst, these thoughts could no longer be hidden, and there was nowhere to hide...

But before she could say anything, Li Fu Zheng frowned and did not give any further warning.

"Let me tell you."

In fact, Meng Liyue had never seen him really angry. He didn't need to do anything, his aura was enough to make people afraid.

At this moment, his eyes were filled with anger: "Are you here to check my household registration or to do some emotional research? When will it be your turn to get to the bottom of what happened between us?"

"...No, I didn't say anything excessive, you just protect me like this."

Ning Yixu's rebuttal caused Li Fuzheng to sneer: "I don't protect my wife, but let her be bullied by you?"

"When did I ever bully her?"

"I'll say this for the last time. Li Yue and I are married. I have the responsibility to protect her."

There was no politeness in Li Fuzheng's tone. Because they were friends since childhood, he had to make it clear that he had no right to mention any topic in the future.

Ning Yixu is not ignorant of this principle.

He was simply fooled by Xu Moti and always felt that the goddess in his heart was more than worthy of being a friend, while other women were never qualified.

Even though Qi Zhi reminded him last time, he still hasn't fully come to his senses.

Li Fu Zheng did not give him the slightest bit of face today, but instead made him realize clearly that no matter why Li Fu Zheng chose Meng Liyue, their relationship would not change in any way.

At least that's the case for now.

"Okay, it's my fault..." As Ruli Fu Zheng said, Ning Yishu was a little stupid and didn't hold grudges. He didn't feel embarrassed when he was rejected in public.

Make sure your friend's choice is permanent, and apologize honestly, even if you still have different feelings about it.

He looked at Meng Liyue, and for the first time he was so sincere: "I'm sorry, I apologize for what I just said, and I promise not to meddle in other people's business in the future."

Meng Liyue was not angry, but just felt a little regretful at a certain moment. She was prepared... and almost said it out loud.

She wouldn't dare to do that again.

She responded calmly: "Let's leave this topic for now."

Just as the dishes were ready and served, we began to eat, and the previous topic was completely over and no one brought it up again.

After dinner, everyone went home. Meng Liyue was sitting in Li Fuzheng's car. She suddenly felt a little sleepy. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she heard him ask, "After that incident, did they still bully you?"

Meng Liyue originally thought that he had forgotten it long ago and wouldn't take it to heart.

Realizing that he remembered, too, her thoughts were drawn back to that tormented, yet hopeful timeline.

After a long time, she heard her own voice again: "No, Xu Moti and the others are jealous of you and afraid that you will really stand up for me, so they changed this method."

For the proud son of heaven, Li Fuzheng was always surrounded by many people, so naturally he would not know what Meng Liyue had experienced.

"During that time, no one talked to me. They all treated me like a monster. They would avoid me when they saw me. Only a few people would secretly pay attention to me."

In fact, when I think back on it, I still feel unwilling, but I don’t feel angry, I just find it ridiculous.

As she spoke, Li Fuzheng's brows became tighter and tighter, and his expression became darker.

Instead, she was able to find a way to have fun: "That was the easiest way to hurt me, so I could concentrate on my studies. Anyway, before that, they had already done worse things, such as pouring glue, throwing my homework, and having people block me..."

"Luckily you're here."

A suppressed anger began to burn in Li Fuzheng's heart, gradually growing stronger.

His expression was also grim. Meng Liyue stole a glance at him and pretended to be relaxed: "Based on the relationship between Xu Moti and I, we are destined to be enemies in this life. It would have been better if I could have been stronger back then."

"I'm not saying this to make you sympathize with me, I just don't want you to be fooled by her again. She is the most disguised and vicious person I have ever met."

Li Fuzheng gripped the steering wheel tightly, veins bulging on the back of his hands: "The same thing will never happen again."

"I know that now is the happiest and most satisfying time of my life. I can resist and I am no longer afraid."

After she finished speaking, Li Fuzheng smiled silently.

After they got married, he had an additional role, and he was happy to help her.

Meng Liyue slept well that night.

Just half-heartedly, she felt that she was lying in an extremely warm place, which was unprecedented and made her addicted.

Just wait for her to wake up, everything is normal, maybe it was just a dream?

She was thinking about this in a daze when she saw Li Fuzheng coming out of the bathroom.

There was still a smell of hot and humid air on the man's body, and his arm muscles were clearly visible.

Meng Liyue was a little confused: "You are taking a shower now?"

Didn't he just take a shower before going to bed last night?

Li Fuzheng, who was drying his hair with a towel, stiffened slightly.

He went to the bathroom to take a shower so early...it was all thanks to her.
