Switched Marriage: The Coddled Little Wife

Chapter 89: Chapter 89 Qin Yang Doesn’t Want Her to Feel Wronged

"I was hoping to surprise you," but who knew I would run into this kind of situation here, and it almost turned into a scare.

Qin Yang also thought of the mother and daughter, "Do you know them?"

"I met them on the train before, they asked me for braised pork but I didn’t give it to them, so they held a grudge against me. Last night, they wanted to share a room with me, and when I refused, they cursed that I was looking down on them and told me I’d regret it. I was really puzzled, it was our first meeting and somehow it felt like I owed them something. Turns out it’s not just me, seems like everyone owes them."

Lin Chuxia said it casually, but a hint of coldness flashed through Qin Yang’s eyes.

No wonder Liu Xiaohua showed such hostility toward her daughter-in-law when she saw her.

The two walked side by side, and Lin Chuxia asked him, "How did you manage to get entangled with these two people?"

Earlier, when she saw the two confronting Qin Yang, she planned to step up and scold them herself, Qin Yang’s temperament isn’t a match for those two scoundrels.

But she hadn’t expected that he would protect her behind him the very first moment.

Even though she didn’t need others to stand up for her, the feeling of being protected was genuinely heartwarming.

In her previous life, whether at home or outside, she was always the one pushed forward whenever there was a problem; no one cared if she could handle it or if she would be wronged.

It was clear that Qin Yang didn’t want her to feel wronged.

Seeing Qin Yang blush as she looked at him with bright eyes, he wasn’t sure if it was out of embarrassment or something else.

He repeated the incident involving Liu Tao to her again.

"Their village is remote, Old Lady Liu called many villagers over, and there were also other villagers who came to watch the excitement. If I didn’t agree to give them 20 RMB a month, I would have been stuck in that village."

So to speak, poverty brings out the worst in people.

It was truly a situation where no reason could prevail.

"It’s also fortunate that Liu Xiaohua was still young back then, if it were now, they might have forced you to become their son-in-law," it’s clear what Liu Xiaohua is thinking.

Listening to her, Qin Yang stumbled and nearly fell.

Almost gritting his teeth, "Lin Chuxia, if I became their son-in-law, you would be without a man."

This woman, how could she say such things so indifferently?

Lin Chuxia looked up at the sky, the ground, and around, but did not look at Qin Yang, "Is your workplace large, do you stay in the dormitory? Would it be inconvenient if I came over? Maybe I should stay in a guesthouse tonight..."

"No need."

At this moment, Qin Yang was half a step behind Lin Chuxia, looking at the delicate and charming little woman with tender affection.

She looked even prettier than before, the clothes suited her well, like a little sun.

How could he possibly let his cherished wife-to-be stay in a guesthouse?

"Hmm?" Lin Chuxia turned to look at him.

Qin Yang pointed to a row of buildings ahead, "That way is the dormitory, I live alone."

Their dormitory was not in the same area as that of the workers, but it wasn’t far from the family quarters.

It was working hours now, and the entire dormitory block was very quiet, occasionally with the sound of children playing from the other side.

Qin Yang took out his keys and opened a room further inside, "Come in, the conditions here are a bit poor."

Lin Chuxia walked in while looking around the room, about twenty square meters in size, there was a desk by the window, a bed, and a wardrobe inside.

The room was very clean, the bedding on the bed neatly arranged, and there was a faint scent of mint in the entire room, the same as the smell on Qin Yang.

"I’ve put your suitcase over here," Qin Yang’s voice came.

Lin Chuxia waved her hand, "Bring it here."

Qin Yang thought she was going to take out daily necessities, but then he watched her open the suitcase and hand him a small box.

"Open it and see if you like it."

Qin Yang took the box with a puzzled look and opened it. Inside was a men’s watch with a black dial and a silver metal strap, emitting a low-key, restrained luster.

"Is this..." for him?

Lin Chuxia smiled, stood up, took the watch out of the box, removed his old watch, and personally put on the new one.

Her taste really suited him.

"Qin Yang, happy birthday!"

She looked at him with a smile, her eyes shining.

Only then did Qin Yang realize that today was his twenty-sixth birthday.

"Did you come here just to celebrate my birthday?"

"Yeah, I said I wanted to give you a surprise. Do you like it?"

Qin Yang looked at the watch on his wrist, then at the same model on Lin Chuxia’s wrist, and then back at her smiling face. He nodded firmly, "I like it, thank you Lin Chuxia, I forgot my birthday, this is my favorite birthday gift."

"Glad you like it, oh, and I bought you clothes."

Lin Chuxia took out the items from the suitcase, "This is a sweater, I see it’s even colder here than in An City, you need to keep warm. This is a shirt, and this coat, try them to see if they fit..."

As she continued to take items out, suddenly a hand with distinct joints grasped her wrist, and Qin Yang looked at her with a moved expression.

This silly boy, really easy to satisfy.

"Moved, huh?" she asked with a smile.

Qin Yang watched her throat move, of course moved, and he wanted even more... to kiss her.

Lin Chuxia saw his eyes deepening, knowing what he wanted, a smile on her lips, waiting for him to make a move.

His throat moved again, looking at those smiling eyes and slightly parted red lips, Qin Yang’s breathing grew heavier, and he slowly lowered his head...

"Knock knock knock... Knock knock knock..."

There was a knock at the door, along with Zhang Dawei’s voice, "Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin are you there? Minister Wang asked you to come over, Mr. Qin? Mr. Qin..."

Qin Yang paused, wanting to muster the courage to kiss her, but ultimately defeated by the repeated shouting.

Irritated, he raked his fingers through his hair and turned his head annoyed, replying, "I know."

Turning back, his gaze still slightly awkward, "You, wait here for me for a bit, it’s probably about what just happened, I’ll be right back."

Lin Chuxia nodded with a smile, seeing his frustrated look, like a child who almost had candy but couldn’t taste it.

Before he turned around, she reached out first, clutching the back of his head, pulled him down, and tiptoed to kiss him.

His lips were slightly cool, with a hint of mint, feeling nice.

"I know, don’t worry, I’m waiting for you."

The words, almost whispered lip to lip, finished with another kiss before letting him go.

Qin Yang stood there dumbfounded, staring at her, and after a moment, he regained his composure, lightly touched his lips with his hand, his eyes tinged with a smile, "Okay."

Lin Chuxia watched him awkwardly move out of the dorm, her lips curving up again.

Such a silly boy.

After Qin Yang left, Lin Chuxia opened the only cabinet in the room, which was empty except for a few work clothes and several worn undergarments.

Just as she was about to tidy the newly bought clothes inside, there was a knock at the door again...
