Chapter 2 Trust between Husband and Wife



In an instant, goosebumps appeared all over my body and my heart was pounding in my throat.

Lu Zhiyuan began to kiss me passionately, but I was not interested at all.

How did he get Q’s WeChat?

Q: Did you send the video to Lu Zhiyuan?

Who is this Q?

My scalp was tingling, and countless questions were tangled in my mind like balls of wool.

After finishing, Lu Zhiyuan went to the bathroom to take a shower and actually took out his cell phone for the first time.

As I watched the door close, I bit my fingers nervously.

I recalled the sweet moments with Lu Zhiyuan and his pampering and tenderness towards me.

I was the victim of what happened five years ago, and I believe Lu Zhiyuan will understand me.

Thinking of this, I made up my mind. When Lu Zhiyuan comes out of the bathroom, I will tell him everything about how Q blackmailed me!

After calming down, I sat up from the bed.

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and after a while, Lu Zhiyuan came out wrapped in a bath towel.

"Honey, I have something to tell you." I mustered up the courage to look at him.

Lu Zhiyuan didn't respond to my gaze. He opened the wardrobe and said to me without turning his head, "Wife, there's something urgent at the company. I need to go take care of it."

"What's the matter?" I was stunned and blurted out subconsciously, "I'll go with you."

As he spoke, Lu Zhiyuan had already changed his clothes.

He turned around and hugged me, saying gently, "As for the technical issues, get some beauty sleep tonight. I'll pick you up tomorrow."

Lu Zhiyuan's company is engaged in high-tech projects. I don't understand his work content, and the only thing I can do is support him.

I could only nod and tell him to go home and catch up on his sleep after he was done, and that I would just take a taxi back tomorrow.

"My wife loves me the most." Lu Zhiyuan smiled, kissed me on the cheek and went out.

Early the next morning, after saying goodbye to my in-laws, I took a taxi back home.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw my sister Lan Feng watering the flowers on the balcony.

"Sister, it's a holiday, you should have a good rest." I said softly, and couldn't help feeling a little sorry for her.

Ever since my parents passed away, I have been dependent on my sister.

She is ten years older than me and has been working odd jobs to make a living since her divorce.

Last year, her daughter Lan Xiaoyu was admitted to Peking University, so she moved to Beijing.

Because she only had a high school diploma, Lan Feng couldn't find a job for a long time.

At that time, Lu Zhiyuan and I were both very busy, and we could only order takeout to fill our stomachs after get off work.

Later, it was Lu Zhiyuan who took the initiative and asked Lan Feng to come in on weekdays to cook dinner and do housework for us. We lent her a one-bedroom apartment in the same complex and paid her a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan.

Lan Feng is a grateful person. She has managed our lives in order over the past year.

"I have nothing to do anyway." Lan Feng smiled, glanced behind me, and asked me, "Xiao Shan, why did you come back alone? Where's your brother-in-law?"

"At the company." I answered absentmindedly.

"Why do you look so bad?" Lan Feng noticed something was wrong with me and asked me with a frown, "Did your mother-in-law give you a hard time about having a baby again when you go back this time?"

I shook my head, closed the door, and told her everything about how Q blackmailed me.

She is my biological sister, knows my past, and is the only person I can confide in besides Lu Zhiyuan.

Lan Feng's eyes widened after hearing this, and she was furious: "Which bastard is so wicked? Weren't you bullied enough in the KTV that day?"

"Sister, I won't just sit there and wait for death. I plan to tell Zhiyuan..." I said confidently, "After all, the most important thing between husband and wife is trust."

"You must never tell your husband!" Lan Feng said inexplicably excitedly.

I was shocked by her sudden rise in voice.

She pulled me to sit on the sofa and said earnestly, "Xiao Shan, you are too naive. In fact, men are very narrow-minded. Think about it, if that video was seen by your brother-in-law, would he believe that those people just stripped you and didn't do anything with you?"

I retorted, "You can testify for me! Besides, Zhiyuan is not the petty man you say he is."

I was thankful that my sister arrived in time and rescued me from those demons.

Moreover, my wedding night with Lu Zhiyuan is my first time, and Lu Zhiyuan will definitely believe me.

"I am your biological sister. Who would believe me if I testify for you? Besides, even the hymen can be repaired these days." Lan Feng couldn't help but sneer.

I didn't expect her to react like this. After a few seconds of silence, I started to panic. "If all else fails, I can call the police and have them arrest Q. That way, they'll prove my innocence!"

As I said that, I took out my cell phone and opened the dialing interface.

At the same time, Lan Feng snatched my phone away in an instant.

"You're crazy!" She frowned and said to me quietly, "Have you ever thought about the consequences of calling the police? That video will be made public. Not only your husband, but also your parents-in-law and all your relatives and friends will see you being stripped naked."

I shuddered all over and couldn't help but think of what Lu Zhiyuan said to me last night.

In his heart, I have always been the purest little angel.

If that video were released to the public...

I dare not think about it anymore. I really cannot afford the consequences.

I pursed my lips and fell silent. Suddenly, I felt a little upset and confused: "Should I be threatened by him?"

"Xiao Shan, if you can really settle it with money, just think of it as giving up money to avoid disaster. Besides, your brother-in-law is so good at making money, one hundred thousand yuan is nothing to you." Lan Feng tried her best to comfort me, and I felt very uncomfortable when I heard her words.

I had a different opinion from her, but I couldn't think of a better solution at the moment, so I nodded and said a few perfunctory words, and sent her away on the pretext of wanting to rest.

At noon, Lu Zhiyuan had not returned yet.

I was about to call him when the doorbell suddenly rang and a burly man was standing outside.

"I live downstairs from you, and I came here specifically to remind you to keep your voices down when doing things at night! You were screaming so loudly in the middle of the night last night that you even woke up my kids! If you do this again next time, I'll have to call the police right away!" The man glared at me angrily.

I was completely bewildered by the incomprehensible words he said.

"Did you knock on the wrong door? I wasn't home last night." I replied with a frown.

The man sneered and said sarcastically, "Then you'll have to ask your husband!"

After he said that, he gave me a blank look and left.

I closed the door and felt my heart leaping into my throat.

A woman's sixth sense makes me uneasy.

Lu Zhiyuan lied to me. He didn't go back to the company last night, but went back to our home with some woman?
