“Very well.” Rong Linyi held her chin with his thumb and index finger. He used a lot of force but somehow made it seem like a gentle movement. “Then tonight, I shall let you know whether I’m up to it or not.”
“H-Hubby…” Su Yanyun turned a bright red upon realizing the changes in this man.
The man’s hand was all over her sensitive skin, and her breathing—which was already short and rapid because of the tight undergarment—became even more panicky.
Su Yanyun’s chest rose and fell quickly, bringing tints of a beasty red to Rong Linyi’s black pupils. Her voice was so soft, his blood vessels almost ruptured.
“Hubby… don’t…”
She was afraid.
This very scene played out in her head, bringing to the surface a memory buried way under…
A man’s voice could be heard vaguely and intermittently from the depths of Su Yanyun’s mind.
[For that deal… I took you to the hotel… doped your drink… haha, you really thought that person was me…
Haha…]
“No!” Su Yanyun trembled all of a sudden. “I don’t want!”
She grabbed Rong Linyi’s shoulders and pushed him away in a fluster. “No… it can’t be… my baby…”
My baby can’t be someone else’s!
I did not do it with another man. I’ve never been with anyone else…
…
Rong Linyi stopped and his gaze hardened.
That’s right.
Even if the Song guy was an absolute jerk, the baby she was carrying was still his.
Although her memories were jumbled up and she’d taken him to be her lover temporarily, this was just a manifestation of her avoiding her pain.
In her subconscious, she’d only accepted the Song bastard and no one else.
She called him “Hubby” so sweetly, but in fact, she treated him as no more than a substitute for another man!
Just a substitute for another man!
Rong Linyi’s brows furrowed upon thinking about it.
The moment he thought of how she’d pleasured another man, how this sweet little woman had opened herself up to another man before…
Rong Linyi’s emotions slowly calmed.
“Hubby…”
Su Yanyun’s confused mind calmed slowly too, possibly because she could sense the coldness from his end.
She touched his hand a little apprehensively. “Why are you… angry?”
“Sleep early.” Rong Linyi flipped her around and laid down beside her, back to back. His voice sounded colder than he looked.
“Hubby, I’m sorry…” She was a little confused, but she was no fool. It wasn’t too difficult to guess what Hubby was angry about. “I don’t know why I…”
It was rare for him to be so proactive, she should’ve been happy about it.
But somehow… she seemed to have an inexplicable fear towards it.
As if she’d been cheated and betrayed after having done it before…
“Don’t move anymore.”
The woman behind his back tossed and turned, and Rong Linyi found it hard to fall asleep too.
He turned over and wrapped his arm around Su Yanyun’s waist. It was neither too tight nor too gentle, just enough for her to feel assured and calmed.
