Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

"You don't like me anymore?"

Her question made Lingye slightly dazed.

Tongrui asked him childishly, and there was even a hint of cute jealousy.

He let her hold his hand, then hugged around her body. He patted her back and asked softly, "Why did

you think that?"

Tongrui was a little stubborn. She hugged him tightly and asked lightly, "Do you like someone else?"

Lingye pressed his eyebrows, then sat beside her. He stared at her and answered, "I don't like anyone

else."

"But you just said that the women at the dinner are beautiful."

"Just kidding. I don't even remember what those women looked like."

What Lingye said was true. He was used to seeing beautiful women. So, no matter how pretty those

women were, it had nothing to do with him.

At dinner tonight, the client introduced his niece to Lingye. Lingye politely refused and did not even look

at that girl, let alone remember her appearance. She should be good-looking, but no matter how pretty

she was, she was not Tongrui.

Tongrui hugged his neck and felt much more relieved. "You drank recently. Can your stomach take it?"

She could smell the aroma of wine on his body. He should have drunk a lot at night.

Lingye sighed. He took off her arms around his neck and held them. "I'm going to take a bath first. You

can continue to sleep."

Tongrui nodded. Not only did she smell alcohol, but also the woman's perfume, which should have

contaminated him during dinner.

When Lingye went to bathe, Tongrui lay on the bed but could not fall asleep.

Soon, Lingye left the bathroom and lay on the bed in pajamas. Tongrui immediately got into his arms

and hugged him in the most familiar and intimate position.

Lingye rubbed her fluffy hair and asked, "What did you have for dinner?"

"Noodles."

Lingye was slightly startled. "Instant noodles?"

Tongrui nodded.

Lingye was a little angry. "You should take care of your body."

"But you're not at home. I don't want to cook. I have recovered. It should be fine to eat instant noodles

once in a while."

Tongrui always disregarded eating. She thought it was enough to fill her stomach and rarely maintained

her health.

One month after her miscarriage, if Lingye had not supervised her eating nutritious meals, she probably

would not have eaten those unpalatable things.

It turned out that healthy food was good for the disease. In only one month, Tongrui gained weight.

Lingye sighed helplessly. He wanted to lose his temper but could not. As he drank a lot of wine, he was

a little dizzy. Now holding Tongrui, he wanted to have a good sleep. In recent days, he had been so

diligent in socializing. There were indeed many socializing at the end of the year. Even though he had

decided not to let go of Tongrui, her identity was still a problem. What if someone exposed her one

day? He was not afraid, but he worried that Tongrui would be hurt.

The hostility toward women in this world had always been crueler.

Although Tongrui was already Mrs. Fu, she was only 24 years old. There were some things Lingye

would rather she did not know.

"Go to sleep."

Tongrui slept for a long time in the afternoon. Now she was very sober. She raised her face from his

arms and said, "But I still want to talk to you."

Lingye did not speak.

Tongrui bit her lips and asked, "Lingye, can you talk to me?"

"Talk about what?"

"Why didn't you reply to my message today?"

She waited long and even wanted to call him, but she held back. No man would like a wife who always

checked on his schedule.

Only then did Lingye remember and answer, "I wanted to reply to you, but I forgot it."

Tongrui thought in her heart.

But you didn't forget it before. You always replied to me as soon as possible.

However, she held back and did not say those words. If she said that, she might look too petty and

selfish.

Lingye worked hard to earn money to support the family, but she still cared about love. She was too

unqualified as a wife. But no woman did not want her husband to reply immediately after seeing her

message.

In the end, Tongrui only nodded.

After a long time, Tongrui tentatively asked, "Lingye, when will we have another child?"

Upon saying that, she felt a little shy. But after she waited for a long time, Lingye did not answer her.

She turned her head and saw that Lingye seemed to have fallen asleep.

Tongrui looked at him and called him softly again, but he did not respond.

"You fell asleep so fast."

She sighed softly and stared at the ceiling disappointedly.

...

The next day, Lingye woke up early and looked at Tongrui sleeping in his arms.

Soon, Tongrui also woke up. She opened her eyes and saw Lingye looking at her. Her heart fluttered

for no reason. Immediately afterward, Tongrui threw herself to him and was on top of Lingye.

When she was about to kiss his lips, Lingye patted her slender waist and said, "Get up. It's still smelly

in my mouth. You want to kiss me?"

"I don't mind." Tongrui blushed.

Lingye had already put her on the bed, then got up. "Sleep a little longer."

Tongrui pursed her lips. After being rejected by Lingye, she felt a little depressed and grabbed the quilt

to cover her head.

Lingye did not hear any voice behind him and subconsciously turned to look. He could not see Tongrui

but her little hands holding the quilt covering her head.

Lingye smiled, then went to the bathroom.

Tongrui sighed. Lingye seems immune to me. Did I lose my charm and attractiveness?

After all, Lingye would sleep with her when she took the initiative to attract him, but now he seemed to

have lost interest in her.

Tongrui looked under the quilt curiously at her body. I didn't become fatter. Why is he not interested in

me?

When Lingye left the bathroom to change clothes, he saw Tongrui on the bed staring at her body.

Lingye frowned slightly. "What are you doing?"

Tongrui quickly covered the quilt and responded calmly, "Nothing."
