Chapter 1017: Chapter 1022: Can’t Hold It Anymore
In the evening, Tan Zhenghong planted a gentle kiss on Duo’er’s face.
"Wife, you must be exhausted today, try to sleep early."
After speaking, Tan Zhenghong closed his eyes, and gradually, his breathing became shallow as if he had fallen asleep.
However, Qiao Duo’er wasn’t someone easily fooled since she could always spot a flaw in pretenses. She sensed a hint of restlessness amidst Tan Zhenghong’s calm.
That restlessness stemmed from a man’s primitive impulses.
Qiao Duo’er continued to glare for a while, but Tan Zhenghong made no move.
She couldn’t understand it; he had been very excited these past few days, so why did he seem so wilted at night?
Could it be he had developed psychological trauma from the time of the childbirth?
But Tan Zhenghong was a hunter and had seen his fair share of bloody scenes, so his psychological quality shouldn’t be that poor.
Thinking over and over, Qiao Duo’er could only think of one possibility, that he was disdainful of her now.
After giving birth, her body had slightly changed, and she always had a milk scent, and men perceive women firstly by sight and secondly by smell.
"Stop pretending, I know you’re not asleep."
Qiao Duo’er said gravely.
Tan Zhenghong hesitated but still opened his eyes, "Wife, I’m really tired today."
He was just hoping that Qiao Duo’er would fall asleep quickly so he could go take a cold shower.
Qiao Duo’er was very dissatisfied with his cold demeanor; she wasn’t someone who could easily hold back her grievances, so she asked unhappily, "Are you disgusted by me?"
Were all those sweet nothings he had said before deceptive?
Was his kindness to her just a facade?
"Wife, if you keep talking, I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold back," Tan Zhenghong said with restrained frustration.
Qiao Duo’er’s face reddened thoroughly when Tan Zhenghong pulled her hand to a certain spot.
"That jerk Bai Yifan said your body hadn’t recuperated fully," Tan Zhenghong revealed the reason.
That evening, when Duo’er was changing clothes, he paid special attention; there were still traces of lochia on her clothes, so Bai Yifan wasn’t talking nonsense.
Knowing his wife hadn’t fully recovered, yet still demanding such intimacy, wouldn’t that make him a beast?
He had barely managed to restrain his desires, only to be met with Duo’er’s suspicions.
Oh, how wronged he felt!
Qiao Duo’er understood—no wonder Tan Zhenghong seemed upset when he came into the room that afternoon, so this was the critical reason.
"Wife, I’m going to take a shower."
Tan Zhenghong gritted his teeth as he spoke; the little hand he had placed there had moved restlessly twice, and he couldn’t take it anymore!
Qiao Duo’er covered her face with her hands, her mind full of what Tan Zhenghong was doing in the bathroom.
Half an hour later, Tan Zhenghong came out looking refreshed.
"Is it over?" Qiao Duo’er’s eyes curved into a smile.
Tan Zhenghong cleared his throat, "I’m still hurt here."
"I realize my mistake now; I shouldn’t have wrongly accused you," Qiao Duo’er sincerely apologized.
Tan Zhenghong was genuinely looking out for her, yet she wronged him for not caring about him. If the roles were reversed, she probably would have exploded on the spot.
"You still have some conscience. Once you’ve recuperated, I will definitely let you know how much I care about you," Tan Zhenghong whispered into Duo’er’s ear, biting it gently.
He just hoped that by then, someone would be more cooperative.
Qiao Duo’er pushed Tan Zhenghong’s head away, his warm breath tingling her neck, tickling her from inside out.
"Just a reminder, since you’re my man, don’t keep moving around, or you’ll be the one suffering," she said.
Because of their natural anatomy, men tend to be at a disadvantage.
