After My Rebirth, I Escaped My Marriage

Chapter 790: Chapter 790: Do You Dare Ask Me If It’s Sweet?

Lin Gantang had no idea about the turmoil inside Wen Yanqing’s heart because he acted so calm, indistinguishable from his usual demeanor.

Having dealt with her anxious moment, she felt relaxed in body and mind. Seeing Wen Yanqing finish his medicine, she wrapped her arms around his neck and deeply kissed him.

Wen Yanqing was about to take the initiative when she slipped out of his embrace with a playful chuckle, not running far but standing just out of his reach, tilting her head and teasing, “Is the candy I gave you after the medicine sweet?”

Wen Yanqing couldn’t help but laugh in frustration. You run away after kissing me halfway and then you dare ask me if it’s sweet?

She’s just taking advantage of the fact he can’t see to tease him.

But little did she know that he could already see her shape and her figure.

Wen Yanqing licked his lips, reached out to grab her but then seemed to remember something and didn’t move, saying very good-naturedly, “Sweet. I can’t see where you are, can you not go too far?”

Lin Gantang truly felt that having a good-tempered husband was so warming, indulging her in whatever tease she fancied.

Lowering her guard, she said, “I didn’t go anywhere; I’m right here.”

Wen Yanqing’s dark eyes glinted with amusement as he watched her approach step by step before suddenly reaching out and capturing her in his arms.

Lin Gantang: “!”

Wen Yanqing bent down to kiss her, but Lin Gantang shrank her neck to dodge, “The door isn’t closed, someone might see.”

Then, very proactively, she suggested, “Let me go, and I’ll close the door.”

Would you really come back if I let go? Wen Yanqing didn’t completely loosen his hold but instead clasped her wrist tightly, “Go ahead, then.”

Lin Gantang, having been found out, struggled futilely as Wen Yanqing followed her steps. As they approached the door, he simply kicked it shut with a bang.

Wen Yanqing pressed her against the door and buried his head in the crook of her neck, lingering with kisses.

Lin Gantang placed her hands on his chest, about to move, when she suddenly froze, “Oh no.”

Wen Yanqing looked up, “What’s wrong?”

“The pregnancy test just now was wasted.”

“What?” Wen Yanqing didn’t understand. How could a pregnancy test be wasted?

Lin Gantang’s face fell, “Actually, there’s no need to test it. I’ve got my period.”

Lin Gantang pushed him away and rushed to the bathroom.

Wen Yanqing: “…”

He took a deep breath, suppressing the urge that had just arisen.

When Lin Gantang was done, she poked her head out of the bathroom cautiously, glanced around, then crept out quietly.

Don’t ask. If you ask, it’s because she felt guilty. She’s the one who stirred up the fire and now can’t put it out. If he found out, she couldn’t bear his resentment.

Thus, Wen Yanqing saw someone sneaking along the wall towards the door right under his watchful gaze.

…Indeed, I cannot hear the sound of your anklets, but I can see your figure nonetheless.

Wen Yanqing placed a hand to his forehead, the earlier gloom suddenly turned into helplessness mixed with amusement.

Forget it, let her be happy and sneak out “unnoticed.”

Lin Gantang managed to escape to the living room and sat down. The tabby cat jumped beside her leg, and Lin Gantang picked it up and stroked its back as she placed it on her lap.

Big Mi narrowed its eyes comfortably, then looked over at Ximi who was coming over, its tail hanging naturally and swishing.

“Meow~” Ximi called out.

Lin Gantang stopped, thinking of picking up Ximi as well, but as soon as her hand left Big Mi’s back, Big Mi immediately clutched her hand with its front paws.

Lin Gantang paused, continued to stroke, and Big Mi contentedly released her hand; but as soon as she stopped and thought of leaving, Big Mi clutched at her again.

Back and forth it went.

Ximi kept meowing desperately, its front paws already clawing at the edge of the sofa as it stood up begging for some petting.

Big Mi quickly slapped a paw down, refusing to let it come any closer.

Lin Gantang was silent for a moment, here we go again, Big Mi’s little temper flaring up with jealousy and affection.
