Chapter 357 - You Don’t Love Me As Much As Brother Molun Loves Duoyao

In the Yan Household, as a pregnant woman, Changqing didn’t feel sleepy even though it was almost 11 pm. She was scrolling on her phone when she accidentally chanced upon Duoyao’s WeChat message on her feed.

When she saw Duoyao’s diamond ring and compared it to the one on her hand, she climbed out of bed and waddled to Song Chuchu, who was in the study room reading his research papers. “Chuchu, Duoyao said she wanted a diamond ring and Brother Molun went out at night to get it for her.”

Song Chuyi stared at the computer indifferently as he replied to an email. “Mm. So?”

Changqing stretched her hand out and put the photo on her phone out in front of him. “Brother Molun’s diamond ring is way bigger than the one you gave me.”

Song Chuyi glanced at her phone and said lightly, “Don’t you find this design very old-fashioned? I have way better taste than Molun.”

Changqing snorted. “The diamond ring is so huge—does the design still matter?”

Song Chuyi swept her a cold glance. “Can you not be so tacky?”

“I am tacky.” Changqing pouted. “You haven’t bought me anything ever since our wedding banquet—not even fresh flowers.”

“That’s only been five to six months,” Song Chuyi said lazily.

Changqing rolled her eyes at him angrily. “Don’t you feel that you haven’t done your duty by not giving your wife anything for five to six months? Besides, I’m pregnant. I can’t be bothered with you. I hate you.”

She turned to walk away after saying that. Song Chuyi rubbed his glabella helplessly. He closed his email and got up to catch up with her, hugging her from behind. “Fine, what present do you want? I’ll get it for you tomorrow.”

“Brother Molun went out at night to buy it.” Changqing pouted. “You even want to wait until tomorrow? Hmph. Insincere. You don’t love me as much as Brother Molun loves Duoyao.”

Song Chuyi’s head hurt. He really wanted to kill Yan Molun. Why did he have to give her a diamond ring for no reason and even upload it on her feed to boast about it? “But it’s already 11 pm. All the malls are closing.”

Changqing frowned and thought. “Forget it, I won’t make things difficult for you. Just get me a bowl of Chaoshan seafood porridge.”

Song Chuyi: “…”

Are you sure this wasn’t your ulterior motive for making trouble with me at the start?

“Why? You’re not willing to go?” Changqing raised her brows. “That kind of shop usually closes at midnight. Just say so if you don’t love me anymore…”

“Alright, I’ll go.” He went to look for his car keys angrily.

Changqing curled her lips up into a smile. “Since that’s the case, I’ll forgive you for the time being but you still have to make up with fresh flowers and all tomorrow.”

“… Alright.” Song Chuyi found her funny while still feeling angry.

After getting into the car, he called Yan Molun straight away. “Why did you have to get Jiang Duoyao a ring in the middle of the night? It’s all because of you that I have to go out so late at night to buy seafood porridge for Changqing.”

“What does that have to do with the ring?” Yan Molun didn’t understand the comparisons between women at all.

Song Chuyi said angrily, “She said I haven’t given her anything for a long time then made me buy her seafood porridge in order to prove that I still love her.”

Yan Molun: “Are you sure it’s not because your wife wanted to eat seafood porridge from the start and was just looking for an excuse to make you go?”

Song Chuyi was stumped. Truth be told, he felt that was the case too. “Please stop your woman from boasting. That way, Changqing won’t be able to find any excuses even if she wanted to.”

…

Yan Molun, who was leaning on the headboard, placed his phone down. Duoyao, who was about to fall asleep, opened her eyes lazily. “Song Chuyi called you? Why did I hear something about seafood porridge?”

“Mm.” Yan Molun told her what Song Chuyi said. Duoyao opened her eyes wide and stared at him for a while. She suddenly rubbed her stomach and said, “Now that you mention it, I feel like eating some too. Why don’t you get me a bowl too? And while you’re at it, get me a few barbeque skewers.”

Yan Molun: “…”

Could he pretend to have heard nothing?

“You’re not going?” Duoyao pouted. She was unhappy. “I gave my first time to you tonight. Also, it’s all your fault that I’m hungry so early. My body is still aching—can’t you buy me some food? Song Chuyi went too.”

Yan Molun braced himself and said, “I just went out to buy you a ring.”

“Usually that would be okay, but tonight is different.” Duoyao snorted. “Besides, you should’ve bought me some food when you were out buying the ring. Don’t you know that this kind of thing uses up a lot of energy, that I would be hungry?”

“Can’t I make you some noodles?” He really did not want to go out.

“No… way.” Duoyao shook her head. “I want to eat seafood porridge. I want to eat barbeque skewers. Remember to add more seafood, especially crabs. If you don’t want to go, it just proves that your feelings for me can’t compare to Song Chuyi and Changqing’s. They’ve already been married for so long, but we’re not married and you can’t even do this. How would I dare to think about the future…”

“I’ll go. I’ll go.” This was the first time Yan Molun found her to be so good with her words. She probably wouldn’t let it rest if she didn’t get her food tonight. He was still mocking Song Chuyi secretly earlier. Now, it was his turn.

He put on his clothes silently and when he walked out of the door, the first thing he did was give Song Chuyi a call. “Where are you getting your seafood porridge? Order a bowl for me. I’ll go pick it up.”

Song Chuyi was puzzled. “Why?”

Yan Molun said helplessly, “It’s all your fault. Why did you mention seafood porridge? Duoyao said she wanted to eat it. If I don’t go, she’ll think my feelings for her are less than yours and Changqing’s.”

Song Chuyi chuckled. She was Changqing’s friend indeed. “Birds of a feather flock together” was true for women indeed. They said the same thing and thought the same way. It looked like he could secretly drag Yan Molun down with him the next time his wife made him suffer.

—————-

When Duoyao had her fill at midnight, she was no longer feeling so low, so she allowed Yan Molun to sleep in her room.

However, it really felt different with an extra person in bed. She could no longer toss and turn around freely.

In the morning, she was still half asleep. Her neck felt a little uncomfortable, so she grabbed something to put under her neck with her eyes closed like before. Mm. Not bad. This pillow was suitable for someone with back and neck problems.

After she slept to her fill, she opened her eyes and got a fright from the man beside staring at her. After a while, she recalled that last night, Yan Molun had officially occupied her bed.

She wasn’t used to sleeping with a man in the same bed since this was the first time. Besides, it was very early in the morning yet he still looked so delicious.

She couldn’t help but glance peripherally at his chest muscles which were exposed. The lines were smooth and beautiful.

“You want to touch it?” Yan Molun moved his chest closer to her, smiling sinisterly.

“Who wants to touch it?” Duoyao moved more to the side. The moment she moved her body, she felt uncomfortable everywhere. “I’m hurting everywhere. It doesn’t ache as much even after dancing for an entire day.”

Yan Molun watched her helplessly and tenderly. “It’ll be fine after a couple of days.”

“I still need to wait a couple of days?” Duoyao’s face fell. “I have an event to attend today.”

Yan Molun thought for a while and didn’t know how he could overcome this topic. “You… should wear flats. Wearing flats will make you feel better.”

Duoyao pulled a bitter face. “Why’s it like this? Why’s it so painful? Were you a little too wild?”

Yan Molun stroked her head lightly. “You’re right but you don’t have to be too vexed. One day, you’ll come to realize that it’s better for a man to be wilder.”

Duoyao couldn’t help but imagine a wild scene. After that, she shuddered. Her ears were red and she glared at him. “I don’t want to know.”

Yan Molun laughed softly and kissed her forehead. “Do you want me to carry you to wash up?”

Duoyao was stunned. As she watched the face of the man filled with tenderness, she didn’t dare to believe he was so nice… However, she still rejected him subtly. “No need. I’ll do it on my own.”

“Then I’ll make you breakfast.” Yan Molun knew she had work in the morning. He lifted the blanket, put on his clothes and went downstairs.

Duoyao put on her pants slowly. Every time her legs moved, she felt like dying. Now, she felt just like a severely injured patient. She really wanted to ask Changqing if her first time was this painful. However, after recalling the previous misunderstanding, she didn’t dare to ask this question. How embarrassing.

She came down after slowly getting ready. Yan Molun was already done making breakfast. He prepared sandwiches, sunny-side ups, and milk.

“Does it really hurt that much? Should I buy you some medicine?” Yan Molun asked as he looked at how listless she was.

Duoyao shook her head. “I should be fine after a few days.”

…

After breakfast, it was 9 am. The minivan came to pick her up. She chose a pair of flats and went out. When she got into the car, Xiling looked at her shoes and frowned. “We’re attending an important event today. How can you wear such uncharismatic flats?”

Duoyao retorted softly, “I think I’m charismatic no matter what I wear.”

Xiling looked at her disapprovingly. Halfway through the journey, she found a pair of high heels in the car and got her to change into them. “It really isn’t very appropriate for you to dress like this.”

Duoyao wanted to cry. She changed into the high heels silently.

When they arrived at the mall, there was an endless amount of fans. She endured the pain as she wore a smile on her face, waving to her fans. She was the only one who knew how much pain she was in. It was simply burning. Yan Molun’s arrow was indeed not something anyone could handle.

After they were done and got into the car, Xiling moved towards her and looked at her, thinking something was fishy. “Tell me honestly, did you do ‘that’ last night?”
