Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Hearing Yun Bixue’s words, Xie Limo’s brows s.h.i.+fted, and he became nervous.
But with the lights still switched off, he couldn’t tell her expression in the dark, which fueled his nervousness.
He turned on the bedside lamp. When he saw Yun Bixue’s slightly flushed face, confusion filled his face.
He didn’t know what Yun Bixue wanted to ask. Why was she blus.h.i.+ng?
Although her blus.h.i.+ng face was so beautiful that it made him lightheaded, he couldn’t afford to make her unhappy after she just forgave him.
Xie Limo answered properly, “Okay. Whatever you want to know, just ask ahead.”
Yun Bixue was a little hesitant. The two of them have been married for so long, but she still felt shy when she faced him.
Especially when he looked at her with such intoxicating eyes.
Yun Bixue coughed and lowered her head. Playing with her fingers, she asked, “You’ve been more irritable recently. Could it be because of some imbalance on ‘that’ end?”
Yun Bixue’s leap in thinking was a little too fast for Xie Limo, and he had no chance to react.
Without thinking much, he replied, “Imbalance on what end?”
Yun Bixue’s flush only deepened. “You’re doing this on purpose!”
Xie Limo really couldn’t figure it out. “Xue, tell me, won’t you?”
Yun Bixue looked reproachfully at Xie Limo before sighing. “I’m talking about ‘that.’ You keep talking about how scared you are to hurt me, so it has been a long time since we did ‘that.’ Could that be the reason why you are more irritable?”
With that, Xie Limo finally connected the dots. His warm gaze darkened as his expression became serious.
“You think it’s because of that, that I’m more irritable?”
Yun Bixue raised her head confidently and blinked at him. “Is that not the reason?”
Xie Limo gritted his teeth. This time, he couldn’t be angry at her even if he wanted to.
He cupped the back of her head and brought her face closer, so they could look straight into each other’s eyes. “Xue, do you think I’m that sort of person? Before I met you, didn’t I live through those years fine as well? From your reasoning, are you trying to say that I was irritable during those times too?”
Yun Bixue bit her lip. “Don’t people always say that it’s difficult to stop once they start?”
“So those rumors about how being pregnant makes one silly is true. I really want to crack open your head to see what it’s filled with.”
Yun Bixue stuck her tongue out. “Don’t do that. I’m just asking. It’s the best if it’s not. If it was…”
Xie Limo laughed inwardly and raised an eyebrow at her. “If it was, then?”
“Then, you can do it too. Didn’t the doctor say that it was okay?” After speaking, Yun Bixue couldn’t continue looking at Xie Limo.
Xie Limo sighed. He pulled Yun Bixue closer to him, mumbling, “Xue, I’m sorry. I’m truly sorry…”
“Why are you apologizing?”
“For you to have to tiptoe around me is my fault. From the first day you got together with me, I’ve already told myself that I cannot let you suffer or become unhappy. You don’t have to think so much for me. Think more for yourself.” This silly person, why was she always thinking for him.
In Xie Limo’s heart, he felt like he had more to owe to his wife once again.
The more he thought, the more he felt that this cold war was his greatest mistake.
Yun Bixue poked at Xie Limo’s chest and said seriously, “But you’re very important to me.”
