After every quarrel, either there are many aftershocks like at the end of an earthquake, or love is as sweet as honey一more conjugal love and mutual understanding.
The latter was the case for Wang Weixi and Chen Kexin tonight.
Wang Weixi hugged Chen Kexin, kissed her hair gently and whispered in her ear. “Kexin, I’m sorry that I was not a good husband this noon.” Wang Weixi touched her cheek and looked deeply into Chen Kexin’s eyes.
Chen Kexin shook her head, turned around, gently hooked her arms around Wang Weixi’s neck, and pressed her head tightly on his chest. She had also thought for a long time and made many assumptions that afternoon.
If Wang Weixi had seen her hugging others and did not get angry but instead smiled as she explained herself, she would probably be sadder now. Maybe she would even blame him for not caring about her.
“I know my husband is angry because he cares about me. I know I am not good enough. I should apologize to my husband. I’m sorry, honey,” Chen Kexin said faintly and sniffled.
Wang Weixi smiled softly and said, “I am too nervous. It’s just that, dear, I was really angry because I care too much. And… I don’t want you to study there anymore. Even if you can not cook, it doesn’t matter. Starting tomorrow, I will continue to prepare food for you. Stay at home, okay?” Wang Weixi knew that he was being selfish, but this morning’s incident was unforgettable. He did not want any man to covet his wife again.
Wang Weixi still didn’t understand some things. He knew Chen Keren was lying to him and that Lan Xiao absolutely could not be her fiance, because if they really loved each other, Lan Xiao would not shift his love to another person. However, Wang Weixi was still not sure whether Chen Keren liked Lan Xiao or not.
He didn’t hope that Chen Keren did all this just in order to drive him away. He believed that Kexin wouldn’t agree with it and that she would be very sad if they broke up. This was not a man’s arrogance, but a man’s delicate feelings.
Chen Kexin’s love, although not expressed explicitly very much, he felt it was real, and he never ignored even a trace of it.
Therefore, when he realized that Chen Keren might really want Lan Xiao to win Chen Kexin back, Wang Weixi felt sad and worried. He didn’t want Chen Kexin to destroy her sister’s happiness. Furthermore, he knew that Chen Keren was actually very concerned about Chen Kexin.
Moreover, it was really difficult for him to believe that Chen Keren would fabricate such a lie. Not because of anything else, but simply because of Chen Keren’s usual style; it was impossible.
Sometimes the facts are right in front of us, but we are not willing to believe them. In fact, we do not disbelieve the facts, but we don’t believe the person behind them.
Wang Weixi was still very curious about whether Chen Keren liked Lan Xiao or not. If she didn’t like him, Wang Weixi had to believe that Chen Keren told him a lie. If she liked him, Wang Weixi really didn’t want this indifferent sister-in-law to get hurt.
Chen Kexin had actually thought about these things a few days ago, so she casually asked him such a question when they were making love.
Chen Kexin’s mind was tested for a long time. She knew that if she went to Lan Xiao’s training center again, she would still feel bitter and restless, even if Wang Weixi believed her. Moreover, she did not know how to face Lan Xiao.
People would naturally choose to escape those people they could not face. After all, Lan Xiao was not Wang Weixi. Chen Kexin could live without Lan Xiao because the latter had not been by her side for so many years. However, Chen Kexin could not live without Wang Weixi. Before she met him, she was alive, but her life was meaningless. After meeting him, Chen Kexin knew that she could at least live happily for the one she loved.
“I know, dear, you don’t have to worry about me,” Chen Kexin said. The stone in Wang Weixi’s heart suddenly fell down.
With a smile on his mouth, he stared at Chen Kexin with a more affectionate look.
“Dear, Sister Duan Fang said that you are very busy now and have no time to cook for me,” Chen Kexin suddenly said.
Wang Weixi made no comment, but he knew he would try his best to arrange his time.
Chen Kexin continued, “So you don’t need to cook for me in the future. I’ve learnt how to make some dishes, so I can cook by myself. Dear, you can concentrate on your work.”
Wang Weixi was moved in his heart and Chen Kexin’s growth really seemed to shine brilliantly all of a sudden. The transformation made him feel a little incredulous.
Wang Weixi bowed his head, pinched Chen Kexin’s nose and said softly, “Dear, you are becoming more and more capable.” Raising Chen Kexin was sometimes really like raising a child. Wang Weixi did not say it, but he often felt this way.
Chen Kexin stuck out her tongue and said, “Yes, I have grown up.”
“It doesn’t matter. If I don’t have time to cook for you, I’ll call you.” Wang Weixi kissed her forehead as he spoke.
Chen Kexin nodded and thought for a while before she said, “Dear, shall we make a three-point pact?”
Wang Weixi was stunned and asked with some amusement, “Why do you want to make a three-point pact?”
Chen Kexin cocked her head, thought for a moment and said, “We will certainly quarrel in the future, won’t we? When you quarrel, you will certainly speak something awful without thinking, won’t you? Also, we don’t know how to settle it, do we?”
Wang Weixi touched her nose and motioned for her to continue.
Chen Kexin removed her hand from Wang Weixi’s neck and encircled his waist. She continued, “I hate quarrelling with you. So let’s talk about it first. First, if we see something that makes one of us angry, we could not get mad before we give each other an opportunity to explain.” Thinking of the things that happened this noon, her heart was filled with sadness again.
Wang Weixi knew that she still cared about what happened at noon, but he also knew that he had been really impulsive. If he had been able to calm down and listen to Chen Kexin’s explanation at that time, he might have really avoided a quarrel.
“What’s the second point?” He nodded and agreed to the first point.
Chen Kexin smiled sweetly and said, “We must agree that no matter how angry you are, you can’t smoke too much. Smoking hurts your body. I don’t want you to hurt your body because I did something wrong.” She looked up and stared at Wang Weixi seriously.
Wang Weixi was stunned for a good while. He pointed the tip of his nose at Chen Kexin’s and said with a smile, “That’s very kind of you, dear. But you also have to promise me that you will consider your body first, and you are not allowed to skip eating or eat too much and hurt your stomach. Do you understand?”
Chen Kexin nodded. She didn’t even want to speak lest she destroy this warm time.
“Third, no matter what we quarrel about, don’t doubt each other’s love for each other. If one of us says something awful, the other will go over and hold him or her tightly, give some comfort softly and stop the quarrel, OK?” For the naive Chen Kexin, her everything revolved around Wang Weixi.
Wang Weixi felt his eyes get wet. He hugged Chen Kexin tightly and said, “Dear, did I have a great blessing in my last life to make you my wife?”
He recalled that over the past few weeks, Chen Kexin had tried her best to change for him, to defend him in front of those aunts, and put on a smiling face every day to make him feel comfortable. She was a gift from heaven and the best and most precious gift the world had given him.
Chen Kexin chuckled and said, “Me too. God is so kind to me that I have the honor to be with you.” Chen Kexin knew that she was willful and bad-tempered, but all her efforts for Wang Weixi were worthwhile and happy in her eyes. She couldn’t imagine a day without Wang Weixi. She can’t even imagine other men around her.
She firmly believed that the man beside her was her Mr. Right. He was not handsome and had no good background, but he was the best man in the world.
“I promise you, dear, no matter what happens between us, no matter what makes us quarrel, I won’t make you sad, dear, this is my promise to you. I will never doubt your feelings for me or betray your feelings.” This was the first time that Wang Weixi had openly expressed his feelings toward Chen Kexin.
Chen Kexin only felt that she had been disappointing and tears fell down again.
Wang Weixi gently kissed her eyes, then kissed her nose, and finally slowly kissed her lips. Chen Kexin held him tight and countless hugs were not enough to express their love.
