Chapter 787: 787: Old Husband and Young Wife

She felt a little sore all over her body.

He pinched Cindy’s waist and pressed it forcefully onto himself.

“Can we talk after this?” Even at this point, Adrian still raised the tone in his question, seeking her opinion.

However, that was only four words.

If there were more, he would probably find it difficult to talk.

Cindy took a sharp breath in and felt heat spreading all over her body: “I’m afraid I won’t have the strength to talk after this.”

Adrian tightened up and said with some difficulty, “Do you think I have the ability to talk much right now?”

Cindy: “…”

If she knew earlier, she wouldn’t have burrowed into his arms.

“We’re clearly already an old married couple,” Cindy murmured softly.

Adrian couldn’t help but laugh.

He grabbed her waist and said forcefully, “Who’s an old married couple with you!”

“Isn’t this…” Cindy paused and continued, “Strictly speaking, haven’t we been together for over five years?”

This time, Adrian really couldn’t help but laugh at Cindy’s statement.

“You call that over five years?” He thought, my god, more than five years!

“Can we count that time five years ago?” He didn’t remember too much about it.

“Of course, it starts from last year!” Adrian said.

“It’s almost a year since then.” For a man and woman, the honeymoon period probably lasts about a year.

After that, it’s no longer fresh.

The relationship gradually becomes a routine.

During the honeymoon period, both partners think the other is perfect.

Some minor bad habits or flaws can be ignored, or even seen as cute.

But once that period passes, there’s no more filter.

Then they start to see those tiny flaws that didn’t bother them before.

They might endure it for a while, but eventually, it will become more and more irritating.

Otherwise, where would all those break-ups come from, aside from special cases like infidelity?

Although not even a year has passed for them, Cindy pondered, as time goes on, the filter between them might break.

Of course, her affirmation of Adrian wouldn’t break.

What a great guy!

She’s just worried that as time goes by, Adrian’s affirmation of her might break.

Men are always looking for novelty.

Wouldn’t they tire of her when time goes on?

It’s not that she doesn’t trust Adrian.

No matter who it is, after becoming an old married couple, the relationship changes from passion to a familial bond.

This trend is inevitable.

“How can this be called an old married couple?” Adrian said in a low voice.

“It has to be at least twenty or thirty years to be considered an old married couple.” He touched Cindy’s eye corners.

Now, her face is still plump.

There aren’t any wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.

Her cheeks are full.

“At least, not until you have wrinkles on your face, your collagen depletes, and your skin isn’t as plump. Or when I have white hair, and even when I don’t smile, there are wrinkles at the corners of my eyes, my face is saggy, and there’s no elasticity left.”

“When we’re both old, that’s when we can truly be called an old married couple,” Adrian said.

“But, you should age slower than me,” he smiled.

“You’re younger than me, and our mother still looks like she’s in her thirties. It’s all about taking good care of yourself.”

“I’m a bit rough when it comes to skincare,” Adrian only used shaving cream to shave and applied a bit of water and face cream after.

Cindy, on the other hand, had a whole array of bottles and jars to apply.

“You’re different; you take good care of yourself. When I’m a withered middle-aged man, you’ll still be as beautiful as someone in their thirties,” Adrian laughed.

“Just look at our parents as the best proof.”

Maverick still looks handsome; however, he does show some signs of aging.

He could be considered an attractive, older gentleman.

But compared to Victoria, he appears to be significantly older.

Having thought about it, Adrian said, “So, I think we can’t be called an old married couple then; it’s more like an old husband and young wife.”

Cindy: “…”

How did this man become so good at speaking?

And he made her so happy!

Which woman wouldn’t hope to age slower and maintain her youth for a longer time?@@novelbin@@

The idea of being an old husband and a young wife made her happy just thinking about it.
