âThereâs no answer!â Gu Jinglian sat on the sofa and pursed his lips. âWhy an extramarital affair? If you donât like your spouse, you can just break up with him or her. And if youâve broken up with your spouse and subsequently go out with someone else, that canât be considered cheating!â
âThen... what if you cheated before you broke up?â
Gu Jinglian laughed. âI donât understand. Why would you be thinking of someone else before you break up?â
Chu He hesitated and then said, âPerhaps, your feelings have faded? You donât like your spouse anymore?â
The man replied straightforwardly, âIf you donât like your spouse anymore, then you should break up.â
âThen... what if you still like your spouse? Itâs just a spur of the moment...â
âIf you still like her, then thereâs even less of a reason for you to cheat on her. Youâre already an adult, so you canât use spur of the moment as an excuse for everything.â
Gu Jinglian paused and his gaze suddenly became dangerous. He looked at her meaningfully. âWhy are you suddenly asking this!? Are you planning to have an affair?!â
âPffft!â Chu He snorted. âOf course not! Do I need an affair? Besides, Iâm pregnant. How do I even have an affair? I might as well kill myself!â
âKill yourself, you dare?â Gu Jinglian started to look more nervous. âWhatâs the matter? Why are you suddenly asking this? I sense that somethingâs bothering you.â

âIâve heard that some men would have their physical needs settled by other women when their own wives are pregnant and are unable to have sexual intimacy.â Chu He paused and continued, âWill there come a time when you are unable to control yourself?â
At the mention of this, Gu Jinglian turned somewhat gloomy. âWhat else can we do?â He added meaningfully, âItâs not like somebody will understand me.â
Cough.
Chu He turned her face away awkwardly.
âBut donât worry. I can take it.â
Chu He suddenly asked, âWill you forgive someone who cheats on you?â
Gu Jinglian was stunned. Noting that Chu He seemed to be very insistent on this question, he answered solemnly, âEveryone has their bottom line. It depends on what it is. For me, the answer is ânoâ! I will never forgive a man who betrays me. No matter what his identity is, all is equal. You are my wife, so you must be loyal to me. Similarly, I am your husband, so I will be responsible and loyal to you. This is my principle and my bottom line.â
Chu Heâs eyes lit up. âAre you serious about that?â
âOf course!â Gu Jinglian said disapprovingly, âDo you think Iâm joking?! Since we are married, then there will be no divorce in this marriage, only death of a spouse.â
Chu He felt an odd chill down her spine and asked half-jokingly, âIf I made you a cuckold, will you strangle me to death?â
âI will. Iâll strangle you before I strangle that adulterer.â
âHow violent.â
âGood that you know.â Gu Jinglian snorted. âSo behave and donât betray me, and you wonât be strangled to death by me.â
âWhat about you?â Chu He suddenly asked with interest, âIf you betrayed me, what would you do?â
âWhat would I do? First of all, there is no âifâ. The scenario is impossible.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chu He found it unbelievable. âYou are that confident?â
âIâm married.â Gu Jinglian emphasized again. âSince weâre married, as a husband, I canât break the rules of marriage. Iâve always kept my word and valued rules. Itâs not my style to break rules.â
