”I understand. I'm very sorry about Pierre's behavior. He just a natural chaotic evil [1] person. I will tell him not to bother you again.” Hongqi apologized. He tried to read his wife's mood and she was still glaring at him with teary eyes. To his confusion, he asked ”What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?”

”Hmm...” Xiulan only continued looking at him with a displeased glare. She was actually thinking about Pierre's comments about Hongqi's type of women. She knew already that she was not really his type. But she shouldn't care! She immediately crosses out that bitter feeling and only sighed.

”Anyway, did he said more? It seems that your annoyance towards him have deeper reasons that you have to be mad at me too.” Hongqi scrutinized his wife's expression. He knew that there's another reason was bothering her. He wants to know from her own mouth what Pierre told her. If he asks Pierre what their conversation was and he didn't like it, he might beat up Pierre until he has to get another plastic surgery.

Xiulan was hesitant to tell him about Pierre mentioning Zhao Lingyu. That topic is very personal and she shouldn't touch that topic ever unless he's the one who initiates it. She's very respectful of another person's past. Especially if that past was painful for them.

She assessed Hongqi's mood first. She doesn't want to tell him but something in the back of her mind that she should be open in her inquiries. After all, they won't be together that long.

”He said something about Zhao Lingyu.” Xiulan muttered and didn't dare to look into his eyes. She suddenly remembered Hongqi's sweet sleep-talk last night. It kind of slightly stings her heart but she immediately ignored such feeling.

Hongqi's eyes were in full shock. He was surprised to hear that woman's name from his wife's beautiful lips. ”That bastard Pierre! I will really beat him up! Out of all the named he could mutter, why does he have mention that woman?!” He inwardly exclaimed.

He looked at Xiulan, who was still avoiding his gaze. He knew that someday they will have to talk about that woman but he didn't expect that it'll be this early.
