Chapter 10 (2/2)

“You’re the mother of my children, my unparalleled treasure, so of course I want to leave the best for you.” As he speaks, he takes out his bank book. “This is my salary for the month; as well as everything I have to offer, the bank book for my past savings, shares, funds, fixed a.s.sets and property, soon it’ll all be yours.”

Listening to him, Huang Shang Rong’s heart is moved. She’s not used to receiving gifts or affection from others, usually she’s the one giving them out. After marriage, suddenly their roles are reversed and she’s still unaccustomed to it.

She hesitantly takes the key, but after reflecting, she still thinks the gift is too precious. While she’s delighted it has nothing to do with how expensive the gift is. What makes her happy is his intention.

“But just because you bought me such an expensive gift, it won’t make me love you more.”

“I know, you’re not the type of woman who values a gift based on its price.”

Xu He Jun reaches over to hug her, holding her close to him, before carrying her up like a child.

“I only wanted you to have the best, to be carefree and to be happy. As your husband, I should give my all to look after you, just like how you want to give our children the best environment, and I want to treasure you, just like how you want to treasure our children.”

“He Jun…” Huang Shang Rong bites her lip, reaching her hand to stroke his cheek, feeling the p.r.i.c.kles of his stubble, before lightly kissing his lips, filled with affection. “I love you.”

He knows. Looking in her watery eyes, he sees the most sincere devotion, “I will love you more and more each day.”

She obediently accepts his kisses, when Xu He Jun suddenly thinks of something, raising his head to ask her.

“Shang Rong, I want to ask you something, and I want you to answer me honestly.”

“What?”

“That day…. that is, that day when I was dead drunk, why did you climb into my bed?”

“Eh…..” She gulps, as the thick, honeyed atmosphere between them suddenly disperses.

“I thought and deliberated over it for a long time, but I still couldn’t figure out why! Did I force myself on you? But with your strong personality, you would have kicked me apart! So why didn’t you?”

How hateful, she had lived too long like a normal person that she had forgotten the spiritual phenomena that had hara.s.sed her for decades had only improved because of He Jun. Not to mention Hao Hao is a boy filled with strong Yang energy and is always crawling around beside her, while since entering the family registry, the Xu family’s divine guardians had also busied themselves with protecting her, so those oppressive situations haven’t occurred since.

Only, should she confess everything to him?

No, once she recalls his excessive actions, keeping such an important think from her for so long, how could she just tell him so readily that at the time, because her own physique was weak, she had crawled next to him to ‘extract warmth’…..

Not to mention he might not even believe her, and take her as a Yang absorbing witch!

She definitely won’t tell him! This brat, his skin is already so thick, if he knew how much she loved each of his kisses and caresses, he’ll definitely hold it over her for the rest of their lives!

Sometimes it’s good for lovers to have some secrets between them.

“Actually, it’s because….” Secretly trying to come up with an excuse, the normally upright and honest Huang Shang Rong still can’t think of a good explanation after a while. “That is….nnn….”

Watching her hesitate, Xu He Jun can roughly guess, “You couldn’t have… already eyed me for a long time, and took the opportunity while I was drunk to climb into my bed!”

“Gah?” Huang Shang Rong blanks. This brat, his skin really is thick!

“So that’s how it is.” Looking at her reaction, he knows it’s pretty close. “I knew it, that time out of all the a.s.sistants, why did you choose me to enter your department? I knew it, I was exactly your type! Actually I had wanted to ask you about it for a long time, but I was a little embarra.s.sed. But since we’re husband and wife now, we shouldn’t fuss over such a small matter!”

“…” Under the heavens, there really aren’t many people like him left.

After being with him for so long, she’s more or less learnt how to ‘overcome strength through adopting a soft approach’. Recalling how he had wanted her to moderate her imposing personality, right now it’ll really come in handy! Didn’t he want her to act like a bar hostess, and to speak more fawningly? Men all care about their pride! Good, then he, Xu He Jun will remain ignorant to the end!

Following his words, Huang Shang Rong purses her lips provocatively.

“Right, you found out. I had ‘eyed’ you for a while, so that night I couldn’t hold back anymore. The one that forced themselves on the other was me, not you.”

He hadn’t thought someone so blunt would say something so tender and bewitching, Xu He Jun is truly shocked. To think his charisma is so strong that even the female Emperor couldn’t resist!

“Oh Shang Rong, my darling.”

Good good, being a little more flattering truly gets you results. She, Huang Shang Rong has now learnt.
