Such a Wife, What More Could a Husband Ask For?

"Is that so..." Leng Qingqiu nodded as if she understood, without giving it much thought, then continued, "Then... hubby, will you be staying here tonight?"

Having tasted its pleasures, and being at the age when a woman needed nourishment most, Leng Qingqiu had gone several days without intimacy and missed Jiang Che terribly.

If circumstances allowed, she would have loved to cling to her young husband every moment of every day.

With Jiang Che supporting her from behind and tirelessly teaching her day and night, she had long become a genuine Peak Hua Jin martial artist. However, because she spent most of her time working, Leng Qingqiu had always remained hazy and half-informed when it came to martial arts cultivation.

Basically, whatever Jiang Che said, she believed. She had absolutely no doubt about his words.

"This... really won't work." Jiang Che lied without blushing or missing a beat, spouting nonsense as soon as he opened his mouth. "I still have to attend a yacht party later. An important figure has arrived, and I need to personally receive them."

"An important figure?" Leng Qingqiu gave him a seductive white-eyed look and said coquettishly, "Hubby, why are you still lying to me? I think you're going off to keep some little sister company!"

By now, Leng Qingqiu understood Jiang Che far too well. How could she not know exactly what kind of man he was?

Receiving an important figure was fake. Going to keep some little girl company was the truth!

Besides, just how important would someone have to be to warrant a personal reception from the Heir Apparent of Jiangzhou? It couldn't possibly be the genuine Crown Prince from the Imperial Capital, could it?

Though she felt a little resentful inside, she was ultimately a woman who understood the bigger picture.
