Chapter 13

After finis.h.i.+ng his greeting, Zhong Zhen Dong didn’t say anything else. Under everyone’s lost gazes, he held the little white rabbit in his arms and walked away.

One arm held the little white rabbit, while the other arm pulled the little rascal along. Although the little rascal resisted him at home, in public, he understood that the gun should always point outward, so there was a mutual agreement to act this play out.

“Will this be too high profile?” Tang Xin Lian softly asked. In the beginning, she only wanted to use the ident.i.ty of being married to chase away her hara.s.sers. She didn’t intend to flaunt it, but after looking at those women’s envious gazes, she felt a little nervous.

“How can that be? Letting everyone know that you have such a handsome and gentle husband will prevent other people from bothering you. Isn’t that what you wanted?”

“Your words aren’t wrong, but displaying our love to everyone seems excessive. It looks like we’re showing off.”

“Does it?”

“Yes. If you look at normal married couples, which one of them would hug and embrace in public? We don’t look like husband and wife, more like sweethearts who are pa.s.sionately in love.”

She was the one that suggested they act like a married couple, but he was more into the act than she was. In front of strangers, he hugged her, kissed her, and occasionally, he would whisper a few words into her ear. He didn’t feel embarra.s.sed, but other people would blush just seeing it.

“Did you know that those women frequently gossip behind your back?”

“I know, it’s because they’re afraid that I’ll seduce their husband. I found you so that everyone would know I have a husband, and hopefully, they’ll be able to relax.”

You’re really a little idiot, no wonder it’s so easy for people to walk over you.” He lightly flicked her nose.

She frowned, touching her nose. “How am I stupid?”

“Listen carefully, being the topic of gossip is also a type of hara.s.sment. You think that by letting others know that you have a husband, those rumors would just disappear? Don’t be silly, rumors will never stop, it’ll only change. The way to stop this hara.s.sment is to make a bigger uproar to cover it. Understand?”

She looked at him blankly, “I don’t understand.”
