Chapter 135: Chapter 136 Where Did You Go Wrong?_1
No one acknowledged Tan Zhenghong and he was confused. Wasn’t he the one who was angry? How come it seemed like his wife was the one upset now?
Looking over at Qiao Duo’er again, all he could see was the back of her head.
"Wife, I feel insulted by you. You’re just discriminating against me, refusing to consummate our marriage, and even refusing to touch me there. You still don’t like me, do you?" Tan Zhenghong said with a sense of grievance.
"I don’t know how long I’ve been waiting for today, yet you dismissed me with just a few Silver Needles."
"Look at how many times I’ve compromised, and I never really touched you each time."
"Can’t you just use your hand to help me this once? I really want to be closer to you."
"Wife, talk to me, please."
The situation had turned on its head, Tan Zhenghong, who had been angry and unwilling to speak, became chatty, while Qiao Duo’er was giving off an air of aloofness.
Tan Zhenghong pursed his lips, realizing his mistake—his wife was angry!
At that moment, he could hardly care about his own grievance and quickly said, "Wife, please don’t ignore me."
Tan Zhenghong pulled Qiao Duo’er by the shoulders to face him, and there she was, cold as ice.
"I know I was wrong, please forgive me, wife."
Tan Zhenghong immediately raised the white flag. Seeing his wife angry made him anxious.
Qiao Duo’er asked indifferently, "Then tell me, what did you do wrong?"
"I... I shouldn’t have touched your chest without your consent. I shouldn’t have made you help me... you know. Wife, I really know I was wrong."
Tan Zhenghong admitted his mistakes—he was the kind of child who knew to correct them when he recognized them.
Qiao Duo’er raised an eyebrow, "Is that all?"
Tan Zhenghong thought hard and finally nodded. He really couldn’t think of anything else he did wrong.
Qiao Duo’er didn’t say anything, giving Tan Zhenghong plenty of time to think it over.
After quite a while, Tan Zhenghong then said, "I realize now, I promise I won’t lose my temper at you again, and I dare not ignore you. From now on, everything will be my fault, and whatever you say is right, wife."
This guy really had no shame left, Qiao Duo’er silently judged.
However, what he said were indeed mistakes, just not the main reason she was angry.
With a stern face and no response from Qiao Duo’er, Tan Zhenghong felt a headache coming on.
He really couldn’t figure out what else he could have done wrong!
Tan Zhenghong drew Qiao Duo’er into his embrace, coaxing, "Wife, if there’s anything else I’ve done wrong, just tell me, and I promise I’ll change."
"Figure it out yourself," Qiao Duo’er coldly threw back three words at him.
Such glaring mistakes, and he still didn’t realize where he went wrong—it was unbearable!
Tan Zhenghong rubbed his face against Qiao Duo’er’s neck, "I really can’t think of anything."
"If you can’t figure it out, from tomorrow on, you’re sleeping on the floor!" Qiao Duo’er said irritably.
"Wife, my leg still isn’t healed. If I sleep on the floor, I’ll catch a cold, and that’ll lead to lingering issues," Tan Zhenghong pleaded.
Qiao Duo’er snorted softly, "I don’t care. After all, I don’t like you, what does it have to do with me?"
Tan Zhenghong really felt hurt, but he quickly came to a realization.
"Wife, I shouldn’t have doubted that you don’t like me. I started talking nonsense as soon as I got anxious."
"You’ve taken care of me ever since I broke my leg, not minding the dirt or the tiredness. If it weren’t for you, my leg would have been done for. You must have some feelings for me because otherwise, you wouldn’t do all this for me."
Tan Zhenghong sincerely admitted his mistake, yet his heart felt sweet.
His wife was annoyed with him because he said she didn’t like him.
Which meant, the opposite must be true—she must be fond of him, right?
