Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 705: Chapter 707 My Heart Has Always Only Had YouWang Xiangxiang quickly finished her bath.

She stood up, stepped out of the tub, and slipped into the bedtime attire prepared for her by the Chu Family.

To her surprise, it was the same style of pajamas that her Xiangxiang Cloth Shop had been selling like hotcakes recently, a bright red set, and there were also ones for men. Surely, Chu Lian wouldn’t be wearing the same thing later.

After she got dressed, she returned to the bedroom and shyly said to Chu Lian, ”I’m done washing.”

At this moment, she was still a bit nervous. After all, she was about to share a bed with Chu Lian for the first time.

”If you’re tired, lie down for a bit. I’ll be back soon.”

Watching Chu Lian leave, Wang Xiangxiang knew that he was off to take a bath. She sat on the big red wedding quilt, not lying down, thinking it would be better to sit and wait for him to return.

Looking at the brightly decorated bridal room and the formal wedding ceremony that took place today, Wang Xiangxiang couldn’t help but admire once again the capability of the Chu Family.

Just last night, Chu Lian had been dead drunk, yet he managed to pull this off the next day.

While Wang Xiangxiang’s mind was filled with scattered thoughts, Chu Lian came back. ”Wife.”

”...” Sure enough, he was wearing a set of pajamas that matched hers. She shyly called out from her seat, ”Husband.”

Chu Lian approached her. ”Wife, let’s go to sleep.”

The mention of sleep made Wang Xiangxiang’s body stiffen. She was somewhat afraid.

Chu Lian noticed Wang Xiangxiang’s unease. ”Wife, although tonight is our wedding night, the doctor said that it’s not suitable for you to consummate the marriage given your current physical condition.”

Hearing this, Wang Xiangxiang’s eyes widened. The doctor even mentioned that? She had just been worrying about how to refuse him without making him angry, and now it turned out he knew everything all along.

”Thank you.”

Chu Lian said with a smile, ”Then let’s lie down.”

”Mm.”

The two of them lay down, both very proper despite sharing the same quilt.

Once in bed, Wang Xiangxiang couldn’t fall asleep. She was worried about what had happened that day. ”Husband, how did you trick Han Yongsheng?”

”I just had someone hold up their wedding procession.”

Hearing this, Wang Xiangxiang breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought he had planted a stand-in bride for Han Yongsheng, who would surely hate her to death for it. She was the one who wanted to use him initially.

”So he will come to our door soon. Husband, I’m afraid...”

”Don’t be afraid. If I dare to snatch a bride, I dare to deal with him.” A single Han Family was within the capability of the Chu Family to handle.

”Husband, can we not deal with him?”

Chu Lian felt a bitter taste in his heart hearing her plead on behalf of another man, feeling a tinge of jealousy. He was becoming afraid now, fearful that she truly had feelings for that other man.

He turned and pulled Wang Xiangxiang into his embrace. ”Don’t think of that Han Yongsheng anymore. From now on, I am the only one in your heart.”

Wang Xiangxiang understood his words; he was jealous. Her head resting on his shoulder, she had a slight smile on her lips and whispered softly, ”You are the only one in my heart; he never was.”

These words made Chu Lian’s heart thump wildly. He was exhilarated and moved by knowing he was the only one in her heart.

”So you’re saying that you only married him for the child’s sake?”

”...” Wang Xiangxiang didn’t reply. She didn’t know what to say; in fact, there were other reasons.

Chu Lian had a lingering question in his heart. Since Xiangxiang had already chosen him, it was best to ask. ”Why were you so sure the child was his and not mine?”
