*Flashback*
"Zimen! Zimen!"
The young Xin Zimen was taken aback when a girl came calling his name around the campus. He stopped at looked at her. Although she looked familiar, he really couldn't recall who she was.
"How may I help?"
She fell on her knees before him as she begged, "Please, save my boyfriend! Please!"
"What? I don't even know what..."
Before" he could continue, she interrupted him, "Your wife is beating up my boyfriend. He'd die at this rate. Please, stop her!"
"What? Where?!"
He hurriedly followed her and she brought him in the alleyway behind the campus. Even from a distance, he could recognize his wife who looked like a hooligan right now with that group of boys laying around the ground groaning in pain.
"So boys! What's the lesson we learned today?" He heard her voice as he stepped closer.
"We should mind our own business!" Even though those boys looked in pain, they all echoed in unison.
Wen Ai held the collar of one of them as she pulled him up and slapped his face, but lightly as she continued, "Young Master Ye, next time remember who you can or can't mess with! Or else, this pretty little face of yours... I'll distort in a way that even your own mother won't recognize you!"
That young master Ye nodded his head like a hen pecking on the grain. She pulled his hair saying, "What? Forgot how to speak?"
"No!" he spoke out in a pained voice. "I mean, yes! I'll remember everything."
"You better do," added Wen Ai with a smirk. "Otherwise, Wen Ai's lectures are open 24/7. And the service is totally free!"
"Wen Ai..." Xin Zimen gritted out in a low voice.
Hearing his voice from behind, Wen Ai froze in her spot and threw young master Ye away. She flung him away as if he was a plague. How could she not recognize that voice? She'd been hearing it for years. She'd never mistake it for anyone. She slowly turned around and observed Xin Zimen's expressions before smiled at Xin Zimen brightly. Behind her back, she continued to gesture those boys to run away. And they did sprint without looking back as soon as she gave them permission to leave. Even if they had to crawl, they just wanted to get away from her. Who would want to spend another moment with this devil with an innocent face?
Wen Ai licked the blood off the corner of her lips and ran over to Xin Zimen's side. "Husband, when did you come?" Then she looked at the girl who had called Xin Zimen and her eyes narrowed dangerously. Her chilled gaze scared the girl so much she started crying and ran away. Xin Zimen looked at her and she spoke in her defense, "I didn't do anything. Girls just love to cry. Really!"
He held her bloodied hands and closed his eyes in distress. Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/imperfect-desires_14488421705519105/devil-with-an-innocent-face_50796099153218898 for visiting.
Seeing him like this, she spoke in a soft voice, "It's not a big deal. I'm fine. You should have checked the others. They really needed a stretcher!"
Xin Zimen lifted his hand and she flicnhed back. He touched her head and asked, "The question is, why would you beat them to the point of them needing a stretcher? What did they do to you? Why is it that whenever I turn around you get into a fight? Can't you just sit down and relax?"
Wen Ai pursed her lips and let him rebuke her like this. She wouldn't allow anyone else to talk to her like this. After all, she was Wen Ai! Who dared talk to her like that? It was only him! He'd never talk nicely to her. Where every else tried to curry favors with her from a young age, he had been rebuking her for being rude, mannerless, and whatnot!
But what to do? She won't have him in any other way. She loved it when he reprimanded her like this. It meant he really loved her. This was his stupid way of showing his love. What a hassle!
Seeing her smiling like an idiot, his anger flared, "Have you lost your mind? I'm angry right now!"
"I know," she replied with a grin. "Keep going. I like it when you do it."
"Am I singing a song here that you're enjoying?" he retorted.
"It's even better than a love song," she said. "Go on. I'll listen." She looked as if she was genuinely really happy to see him acting like this.
Xin Zimen groaned in frustration and rubbed her head, "What am I to do with you?" She hugged him and said, "For now, you can hug me." He sighed out but still hugged her silently. "This is hurting." She pointed at her lips. "I heard saliva can heal wounds. So, why don't you give me a kiss?"
"Get lost!" was the reply she got.
"Husbands are not supposed to say that to their wives! It can hurt my feelings!"
He rubbed his forehead for a while before he held her hand and dragged her with him. Instead of going to find his car, he directly hailed a taxi and got her inside before following behind.
"To the hospital," he said to the taxi driver.
"Huh? Why hospital? These are all small scratches," she said. "If you don't want to kiss, say it. Why drag me to the hospital just to avoid a kiss. How petty!"
"If you kept this up, I'm gonna throw you out of the bedroom tonight."
She gasped, "How could you?!"
He looked at her shocked face and continued, "So, if you don't want that. Be quiet. At least, until I ask you something stay quiet. I'm really mad right now. Don't provoke me."
Wen Ai licked her lips and decided to stay quiet for now. Even she could see he wasn't kidding right now. This usually quiet husband of hers had a very bad temper. She needed to be mindful for now.
