Chapter 708: Husband-Chasing Crematorium

Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong at Me, Jiang Muye

Boss Cutie

Xiang Shan's careless words struck Leng Qihua as utterly ridiculous.

"Xiang Shan, marriage is no joke. How long has it been since we divorced? Do you think our divorce was just playing house, and then getting married again is more playing house?"

Xiang Shan blinked innocently at Leng Qihua's frustrated words.

She felt a bit unhappy in her heart too, but she could understand that Leng Qihua was caught off guard by all of this, and that he wouldn't necessarily accept it right away.

So Xiang Shan calmed herself down and said to Leng Qihua, "To me, marriage is no joke. Back then, when I wanted to marry you, it wasn't a whim. I thought it through very clearly, and then I became your bride. Now I still want to marry you. Even though I'm not a young girl anymore, I've matured."

Leng Qihua's heart jolted. He turned and saw the burning look in Xiang Shan's eyes.

Xiang Shan didn't look like she was joking. She was speaking frankly too.

But Leng Qihua couldn't stay calm in a situation like this. After all, she was currently full of desire, and being so forward on top of it.

Leng Qihua took a deep breath and said, "Xiang Shan, calm down, and give me some space too. I'm not going to remarry you now, so you'd better give up this absurd idea."

He pried her hands off and said, "It's very late. Go to sleep."

Then Leng Qihua left the bathroom.

Xiang Shan called out to him, unwilling to accept it.

But Leng Qihua didn't look back.

Xiang Shan's eyes reddened slightly. She had thought tonight's strategy would succeed, but she hadn't expected Leng Qihua to be so rational.

Clearly, in the past, it had been so easy for her to be with him. All she'd had to do was crook a finger. How had it become so difficult now?

Still, Xiang Shan wasn't discouraged. She felt that as long as she worked harder, she would definitely succeed.

See, he'd said he wouldn't do it now, not that he never would.

There was still hope.

She was the unkillable Xiang Shan! Was there any man she couldn't handle?

Leng Qihua slept right next door.

But in the middle of the night, Xiang Shan said she'd had a nightmare, and then crawled into Leng Qihua's covers.

It scared Leng Qihua badly.

He hadn't expected Xiang Shan to be so good at making a fuss.

"It was so real, I dreamed of Ye Shuhua again!" Xiang Shan threw herself into Leng Qihua's arms, sobbing away.

Leng Qihua had originally wanted to shoo Xiang Shan away, but when he saw her pitiful look, and the fact that there really was a lot of cold sweat on her face—it didn't look like she was lying.

This made Leng Qihua's heart soften.

He reached out and silently stroked the back of Xiang Shan's head, soothing her emotions. "It's fine, it's over."

"I keep having nightmares when I'm alone, I can't sleep well. Can I just stay by your side?" Xiang Shan kept burying herself into Leng Qihua's chest.

Naturally, Leng Qihua couldn't push Xiang Shan away. After thinking it over, he could only agree.

Xiang Shan, who had been pretending to be fragile, secretly smiled as she lay in Leng Qihua's embrace.

Only, Leng Qihua hadn't expected this to be just the beginning.

After staying one night, Xiang Shan shamelessly moved in and stayed.

She even fought with the servants over the chores. Besides cleaning for him, she would even wash his underwear.

In fact, in the past, Xiang Shan would never have done such a thing.

After all, Xiang Shan was a very proud person, and work came first.

Leng Qihua watched Xiang Shan working hard to wash his clothes, and for a moment he was in a daze. Was the person in front of him really the Xiang Shan of the past? Was he sure it wasn't someone who looked identical?

In such a short time, Xiang Shan's change was a bit too big.

However, the push and pull between Xiang Shan and Leng Qihua still bore no fruit. Xiang Shan was still in a husband-chasing crematorium, and the days ahead were endless.

……

As the months went on, Leng Ruoli became very sleepy during her pregnancy and had no energy at all.

Jiang Muye couldn't bear to wake Leng Ruoli. After all, she had it too hard.

Jiang Muye would exchange some nutrient solutions from the System Shop for her to drink, and only then did Leng Ruoli's spirits improve quite a bit. At her prenatal checkups, the baby was very healthy too.

Only, Leng Ruoli noticed some strange behavior from Jiang Muye.

For example, she saw Jiang Muye holding his phone and editing something, clearly avoiding her.

Once, she curiously leaned over, but Jiang Muye covered the phone and wouldn't let her see.

Doubts began to form in Leng Ruoli's heart.

Jiang Muye said to Leng Ruoli, "Alright, it's time to take your folic acid. I'll go pour you some water."

Leng Ruoli's brows furrowed slightly.

She watched Jiang Muye go pour water, taking even his phone with him.

Once or twice would have been fine, but Leng Ruoli noticed several times that Jiang Muye wouldn't let go of his phone, and would even secretly start smiling.

This made Leng Ruoli feel very strange.

Especially when she woke up thirsty in the middle of the night, she saw a bit of phone light from Jiang Muye's side, and actually discovered that late at night, Jiang Muye was still typing something.

There was a stuffy feeling in Leng Ruoli's chest.

She couldn't put it into words.

"Husband…" she called out.

As a result, Jiang Muye was startled, and the phone he was holding immediately fell.

Then he frantically covered the phone on the pillow.

"What is it?" There was something unnatural in his voice too.

This made Leng Ruoli feel even more that his behavior was strange. She felt something was off.

"Husband, why are you still up so late?" Leng Ruoli asked.

"Just playing on my phone, couldn't sleep. What's wrong, did I wake you?" Jiang Muye looked at Leng Ruoli with a smile.

Leng Ruoli shook her head. "No, I'm just a bit thirsty. Could you go downstairs and pour me a glass of hot water?"

Jiang Muye didn't even think about it, very eagerly. "Okay, I'll go pour you water right now. Wait here."

Jiang Muye immediately went downstairs to pour water.

Leng Ruoli's gaze fell on the pillow.

She bit her lip, and suddenly had an impulse.

Slowly, she reached out her hand, about to grab the phone Jiang Muye had placed under the pillow.

Just as she was about to open it and look, Leng Ruoli thought of something and immediately put the phone back.

What was she doing right now? This was clearly distrusting her own husband.

It was impossible for him to betray her, to fool around with other women outside.

It had to be some other work.

Leng Ruoli desperately suppressed her curiosity. She had to have some trust in Jiang Muye. She absolutely couldn't make a big deal out of a small thing just because of a little something.

It was definitely not what she was imagining.

Leng Ruoli put the phone back and acted as if nothing had happened.

When Jiang Muye came back up, he saw Leng Ruoli still looking as obedient as ever, and didn't get suspicious.

"Here, drink up. Is it too hot?" Jiang Muye was still very gentle.

Leng Ruoli carefully took a sip, then smiled at Jiang Muye. "No, it's not hot, it's just right."

"That's good." Jiang Muye nodded.

"Husband…"

Leng Ruoli suddenly called him, making Jiang Muye respond, "What is it?"

"It's very late. Go to sleep early." Leng Ruoli placed her hands on the blanket and looked at Jiang Muye gently.

Jiang Muye looked at Leng Ruoli's beautiful face and subconsciously said, "Okay, I'll be good and listen to my baby."

Leng Ruoli was somewhat satisfied. At least he was obedient.

But then she noticed him turn around, sleeping with his back to her.
