Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ji Wen continued, “Uncle, we’ve known each other for so many years. You’re the only person I know who can affect the way she feels. Your emotions affect her emotions, and she remembers everything you say. Whenever we talk about you, she’ll always smile and won’t let us speak ill of you. Only she can talk about you like that.
“Only she can tyrannically place you in her world. We’re all outsiders. She loves you so much. You should be able to feel it.”
Hearing these words, Ji Lingchen was clearly stunned.
Although he knew that his little wife loved him, hearing these words from his nephew left him extremely shocked. After the shock wore off, he was overjoyed. Perhaps this was what it felt like when two people shared feelings for each other.
Ji Wen said affirmatively, “You are her first love. She has never been in a relationship before, so she doesn’t know this is love at all. But people outside the relationship like us can see that she has never cared this much about someone else before. Ever since you started ignoring her yesterday, she has been extremely sad. When she woke up in the morning, the first thing she did was ask you when you would be back. In the afternoon, she kept looking at her phone. She didn’t even eat her favorite snacks. When she came home, she spent time watching the door. When you came back, she was very careful, afraid that she would make you unhappy again.”
“If you hug her, she’ll be happy. If you ignore her, she’ll be sad again. Uncle, in a relationship, a partner will only be this cautious if they love the other person very much. You like her too. Why can’t you treat her well?”
Ji Wen was not a fool. He could tell how much his uncle felt for his aunt.
A man who had sworn to never marry suddenly changed into a man who hugged his wife and doted on her very much. Usually, he would always caress her, and occasionally, he would even give her a few kisses.
In order to comfort her, he would do everything he could to make her happy. He even personally taught her how to drive. He even played with dirt with her even though he was a neat freak.
…
There were too many instances that proved Ji Lingchen’s love for Xiaonuan. Both of them clearly cared so much about each other.
“I didn’t ignore her.” Ji Lingchen spoke after a moment of silence.
He did not remember the girl he saw yesterday. He only remembered the bite marks on her arm. However, who would be filled with love if the person they had been searching for, for more than ten years, suddenly appeared in front of them?
Ji Lingchen was not very emotional in love. His feelings for his wife would not stand in the way of what he wanted to do.
Now, there were more important things for him to investigate. If he missed this opportunity, there was no telling when he would get another chance. Therefore, he had ignored his wife first.
Fang Xiaonuan stood at the door with a glass of water and waited for a long time. In the end, she hung her head in low spirits. She guessed that her husband was still unwilling to forgive her. She turned around and was about to leave when the door opened.
Ji Lingchen looked at her. “In the past, when you entered my study, you were never polite. Why did you learn to knock and ask if you can come in today?”
Fang Xiaonuan said softly, “Husband, I didn’t make mistakes in the past. I didn’t feel guilty then.”
Therefore, every time she came, she would casually say something and walk in. But now that she had done something wrong, she was here to admit her mistake. Of course, she had to correct her attitude.
Ji Lingchen looked at the cup in her hand. It was still steaming. He was afraid that it would burn her hand, so he immediately took it with one hand. With the other hand. he pulled her into the study.
Ji Lingchen glanced at Ji Wen and said impatiently, “Hurry up and get lost.”
Ji Wen said, “Uncle, if you’re not punishing me, I will…”
“I will supervise you for a day in the small dark room,” Ji Lingchen said indifferently.
Ji Wen was so annoyed that he wanted to pull out his tongue and throw it into the trash can. He could have just left, but he had to ask for a punishment. He had a big mouth.
After Ji Wen left, Ji Lingchen put down the cup and sat down on the sofa with his little wife. Her eyes were teary and she was being evasive. She did not dare to look at him.
“Hubby, don’t punish Xiaowen,” Fang Xiaonuan pleaded on behalf of Ji Wen.
Ji Lingchen kissed her the moment she finished speaking. He was so familiar with her soft lips. He hugged her and kissed her for a long time before he was willing to part with her.
“I heard that my kitten cried because she missed me?”
Fang Xiaonuan heard this doting tone and immediately felt mistreated. She whimpered coquettishly and said, “Yes, she cried for a long time.”
Ji Lingchen’s lips curled into a smile. “Why didn’t you sleep?”
Fang Xiaonuan said with a sobbing tone, “You didn’t come back. My thoughts ran wild and I couldn’t sleep.”
Ji Lingchen stroked his wife’s hair. “Didn’t I say that I was only withAssistant Liu? There was no one else with me, much less a woman.”
