Which is to say, before Huo Jingshen turned 30, before he married her, there might have been other women in his life.
âTell me! How many women have you been with!â Su Wanwan began interrogating.
âNone.â
âImpossible!â
âWhy would I lie to you?â
Huo Jingshenâs expression was very candid.
As candid as always.
Su Wanwan pouted, âSo, you never had a relationship when you were younger?â
âWhen I was younger?â Huo Jingshen narrowed his dangerous eyes.
How old does she think he is now?
Su Wanwan slightly tightened her face, âTell me! If you dare to lie to me, I curse your future son will have no butt.â
Huo Jingshen: ââ¦â
After a while, he sighed with exasperation, âWho curses their own son like that? Our future son will have no butt? Huh? Can you believe what youâve just said?â
Now it was Su Wanwanâs turn: ââ¦â
She pursed her lips, âSo have you ever been in a relationship before?â
âNo.â
âReally? Youâre not lying to me?â Su Wanwan found it incredibly hard to believe.
Her husbandâs looks were unarguably the best and he came from a respectable family, and was famously one of the leading figures in the UK.
In internet-speak heâs:
A diamond-level perfect male god!
Given that foreign girls tend to be open and enthusiastic, and the west is known for its progressive views on such matters, and given his excellent driving skillsâ¦
Suddenly, a big hand gently touched her head, patting it a few times as if checking her temperature, âDid your brain get burned? Itâs not hot to touch, why are you asking such an idiotic question?â
âYouâre sure youâre not lying to me!â Su Wanwan abruptly pulled away his hand.
Every time before he had easily brushed off her questions. Today, she was determined to get clear answers.
ââ¦â
After a moment, Huo Jingshen finally said, âIâm not lying to you, from beginning to end, Iâve never been in a relationship before, my first love and marriage are with you, itâs only you. Now, are you satisfied with that answer?â
âYouâve never kissed another woman?â
âNo?â
âYou havenât done any⦠things with another woman?â
âNo.â
âI donât believe it!â Su Wanwan immediately shouted.
Huo Jingshen rubbed his forehead, âEvery single thing Iâve ever done with you, Iâve never done with any other woman.â
âWhat about things you havenât done with me?â Su Wanwan instinctively countered.
Huo Jingshenâs lips curved into a slightly wicked smile, âThings I havenât done with you? Are you sayingâ¦â
Holy crap!
Su Wanwan quickly covered his mouth.
This man, how could he be so shameless?
He dares to say such things outright.
He really has some thick skin.
âAnyway, Iâve never done those things with any other woman.â Huo Jingshen looked at her blushing face, barely containing his amusement.
She was the one who wanted answers, but now she is blushing as soon as he answered.
âGood.â Huo Jingshen spoke reassuringly, âDonât keep overthinking. When have I ever lied to you, huh?â
This was indeed a fact.
So, that meansâ¦
Su Wanwan looked at him, âSo, youâre saying you didnât have any experience before we got married?â
Huo Jingshen: ââ¦â
âNo way! You were 30 and didnât have any experience?â
Huo Jingshen again: ââ¦â
âNo wonder at that timeâ¦hahahaâ¦the reason was because you didnât know how! Ahahaha.â
Huo Jingshen: ââ¦â
This was the second time his wife joked about his poor first experienceâ¦
âThatâs not right.â Su Wanwan started laughing, âDid you secretly study later on? Did you practice on your own?â
Huo Jingshenâs handsome face turned dark.
He watched the girl, her eyes sparkling with joy, her beautifully made-up face filled with cunning and satisfaction, she indeed seemed to be in utter bliss.
A vintage palace-style gown suited her remarkably well that day. The youthful vibrance in her was more obvious than before, she had embraced a bit of a womanâs charm as well.
Thus.
âHmm, darling, I think itâs better if we practice more together, after all, practice makes perfect.â
Su Wanwan paused.
He already had her in his armsâ¦
The entire city on Valentineâs Day, seemed like it had gone into hibernation at that time.

Meanwhile, Bai Ruwei returned to her simple, temporary rental room.
It was late at night.
Because it was only a month-long winter vacation, she had no relatives or friends in Nancheng. So she resorted to staying in a temporary hostel.
A room crammed with bunk beds for several people in a dormitory, accommodating more than a dozen women.
Most of them were new to Nancheng for work, with people younger and older than her from all walks of life.
Those who chose to live here are generally in transition. Rent was paid weekly. Once they found a job and income stabilized, some would start to move out. Of course, new tenants would also move in.
When Bai Ruwei returned to her room, her makeup was a mess, her clothes were dirty, and her hair was a disaster.
She went straight to her bed, moving a chair to stand on and rummaged through her belongings for clothes.
Because she was on the top bunk, and her chair was relatively new, it creaked loudly, echoing in the room.
Her rustling quickly attracted protests.
âSo noisy, can you be a little bit quiet?â
âI was sleeping and you woke me up!â
âSuch bad manners!â
Bai Ruwei rushed to apologize, âIâm sorry.â
She apologized repeatedly and picked up her stuff to go take a bath.
But then, another voice suddenly spoke up, âAlways coming back in the middle of the night, smelling like cheap perfume, let me tell you, Bai, when you shower, donât touch my stuff. Iâm afraid Iâll catch an STD.â
Bai Ruwei was taken aback, she could hardly believe her ears.
She looked at the woman, filled with humiliation and anger, âWhat nonsense are you spouting?â
