Chapter 31
You Are My Starlight
About Self-Esteem (Part 4)
Huo Ting walked into the living room and saw Gongbei Cheng freely pouring and drinking red wine from a glass, as though he was in his own house.
Seeing his behavior, Huo Ting couldnât help but say angrily, âYou should take your wife at hand! How can a woman dress like a man all day?â
Gongbei Cheng sighed and said, âI feel more at ease this way. Only some young girls would be obsessed with my wife dressed like this anyway. Nothing would happen since they have the same gender. Iâll be stressed out if she changed to womenâs clothing and have men chasing her.â
âYouâre too naive!â Huo Ting said coldly. âDonât you think itâs a serious problem that your wife doesnât give you a proper title even until now?â
This matter had always bothered Gongbei Cheng. His face turned dark after it was?uttered out loud by Huo Ting, and he said loudly, âWho says my wife doesnât give me a proper title? She listens to everything that I say and doesnât dare to oppose me!â
Huo Ting glanced at Gongbei Cheng and saw the hurt on his face. He didnât believe a word he just said.
Compared with Xia Yi, he thought of Su Mianmian and how good his little lamb was. Not only was she good-looking, she was also obedient and sensible.
After making a drink, Gongbei Cheng saw that Huo Ting didnât even give him any facial expression. Feeling snubbed, he touched his face and said, âDonât laugh at me. Now that youâre married, youâll definitely be worse than me in the future.â
Huo Ting said coldly, âIâm different from you.â
Right after he finished talking, Xia Yi came out and picked up where he left off, saying scornfully, âYes, my hubbyâs technique isnât lousy like yours!â
âWifey, youâre out!â Gongbei Cheng rushed up, sucking up to her and asked thoughtfully. âAre you tired? Huo Ting has a good bottle of red wine here. Letâs take it back to drink later.â
Xia Yi gave him a push and said, âGo entertain yourself by the side first. I have something to say to Huo Ting.â
âWhat do you mean by that?â Huo Ting asked angrily.
âHey, Huo Ting, my wife doesnât mean anything.â Gongbei Cheng whispered to Xia Yi, saying, âWifey, even if you are very satisfied with my technique, donât say it in front of Huo Ting! Men care very much about such issues concerning oneâs dignity! Besides, Huo Tingâs technique is lousy because heâs inexperienced.â
Xia Yi glanced at him and smiled, âWe shall talk about your rich experience when we get back. Now, get over there.â
Gongbei Cheng shrugged his head and silently retreated to the side, looking at Xia Yi with his eyes wide open.
Xia Yi went up to Huo Ting, ignoring his erupting look, took out an ointment from her bag and said to him, âLittle Cutie sustained a waist injury which led to a fever because someone was too rough and his technique was too lousy. I gave her a fever-reducing injection and she will be fine tomorrow. This is the ointment. Iâve just given her a massage to relax the waist. In the next few days, make sure she has a massage every day, and she should recover soon.â
After that, she looked at him with a very strange expression, and asked after a brief thought, âIf thereâs a need, my hubby has some... ahem, education videos, Iâll get him to send to you. Sometimes, itâs not about using brute force.â
â...â Huo Tingâs face was now totally dark.
Gongbei Cheng, who was at the side, couldnât control himself anymore and started laughing loudly with his hand on his stomach.
âHahahaha... Donât worry, Huo Ting, I have a lot of resources. Iâll gather them and send them to you. I guarantee that your little lamb will not be injured because ofâ¦your brute force next time... hahahaha...â
Huo Ting thought, he got the ointment anyway!
Even if he bashed up Gongbei Cheng now, it shouldnât affect the little lambâs health anymore?
After taking a glance at Huo Ting whose emotions were getting out of control, Xia Yi pulled Gongbei Cheng and walked out as she said, âOkay, weâre off now. Give me a call again if thereâs anything.â
â...â Looking at the couple who quickly disappeared in front of him, Huo Tingâs mood became slightly better.
He looked down at the ointment in his hand and pondered. Is his technique really so bad?
Wasnât the little lamb moaning comfortably?
Mianmian would probably cry out if she knew about his thoughts. Uncle, she was screaming in pain alright?!
