"The real happiness comes when the two of you have mutual feelings for each other. You two married quickly and you guys aren’t intimate enough. I wish you two will take it easy and go with the flow." Mu Liang said. "But I’m impressed that she didn’t find out your acting. Just how much she trusts you?" Mu Liang said.
He seemed very knowledgeable about love and in truth, he was showing off. He didn’t have to work super hard to make his wife fall for him. He secretly married her and then he showed what he could do for Mu Lan. Mu Lan also saw that he was sincere and loyal to her, and he was rich and handsome. Though she was searching for her past, she agreed to be with him. That’s why he always thought that he was lucky in romance. Now that his friend has married and is now having trouble getting along with his wife, Mu Liang couldn’t help but remind Ge Chen of his smooth sailing.
Ge Chen noticed it but pretended not to notice. He said, "It’s not about trust. At first, she didn’t want to believe in me. I just had to show her how good I am. Later, she put her guard down."
Mu Liang advised him, "If she finds out that you were acting, I don’t know what she will do. People like her are scary. Once they lose their faith in someone, they will never believe in them again." He acted as if he never tricked his wife.
Ge Chen’s lips twitched. "I know and that’s why I’m cautious. You need to understand my side too. If I don’t deceive her now and show her my real self, she might divorce me and never want to see my face again."
"I know it’s hard on you too but it’s not me who needs to understand you. It’s your wife." Mu Liang smiled. He was thoroughly enjoying Ge Chen’s suffering.
Ge Chen’s eyes glinted. He told Mu Liang, "I have faith in her. She has a big heart and gives people chances. I know she will give me a chance. And guess what? For helping her today, she will reward me with her homemade cooking." Who said he didn’t know how to show off.
"Will she now?" Mu Liang narrowed his eyes.
Ge Chen nodded. "Yes, she said that she could cook or bake anything as long as she had the ingredients and the recipe. She is a genius. Don’t you think so?"
"..." Mu Liang couldn’t say anything. His wife only knows how to boil water and cook instant noodles. One day, she tried to boil an egg and it was a disaster. He imagined Ge Chen enjoying homemade cook of his wife and his face darkened. At least, Mu Lan was sincere when she cooked instant noodles for him and he was happy with it. But it still bugged him.
"It’s getting late. I should sleep. Good night." Ge Chen didn’t wait for his friend’s reply and unhurriedly cut the call. Mu Liang’s face was gone from the screen. He will let Mu Liang burn for some time. ’Wedding ceremony and reception... I have to tell Lin about it. It will be good to have a change of mood.’
Ge Chen smirked. ’To think he wanted to hide such an important detail. Mu Lan... I’m sorry. I know you are my friend’s wife but I have to find out the truth. A girl with the snake symbol.’ He stood up and calmly went to the library. He looked through some books and when he noticed it was almost three in the morning. ’I have duty tomorrow.’ Thinking that, he closed the book and went to bedroom.
The lights were turned off and Xue Lin snuggled on the bed covering herself from head to toe. Ge Chen silently walked and went to the bed. He slightly uncovered her face and checked if she was breathing properly. She must be dead tired because she didn’t notice that her face wasn’t covered.
Ge Chen lowered his head and planted a soft kiss on her lips. ’I really wanted to kiss you here but I know you will put a distance between us if I did it. I’ll try to be satisfied with these secret kisses but you have to give in to me when I’m done with 99 secret kisses. I want to give you the kiss number one hundred when you are conscious. Remember that.’ He brushed his nose against hers and covered her face with the comforter. He kept an open space so that oxygen could pass properly and slept next to her.
The next day, Xue Lin had a peaceful day. Apparently, Xiao Rong or Mumu didn’t come to the school. Only Susu came and visited Xue Lin. She was also upset about the whole situation. "Xiao Mumu isn’t talking or eating. The room my mom gave her, she locked herself in there. I peeked on her several times through the window. She buried her face on the pillow and stayed like that all night and morning." It was visible that she didn’t sleep last night and kept an eye on Mumu is case she tried to commit suicide.
Xue Lin replied, "Give her some time. It’s hard for her too. The attorney contacted the school. He said that she would get the money and property of her biological parents. And Mr. Ning doesn’t want to contact her. What did Xiao Rong say to you? Did he contact you?"
Susu politely answered, "I called him and he said that he just needed some time to fix his emotion. He may come to the school from the next week. His biological father wanted to contact him but he didn’t want to. Miss Xue Lin, I know it’s not my fault but last night I have been thinking that if it wasn’t for me-"
Xue Lin interrupted her. "Don’t finish that sentence. You should be happy that you helped your boyfriend find the truth and punish the evil."
