Chapter 368: One Wrong Step Would Mess Up Everything
Su Chenghui’s hands were hanging by his sides, balled into tight fists. He stared at Xiang Caiping and finally nodded. “Fine. I’ll leave.”
He replied as if it was not a big deal, but his footsteps as he turned around were extremely heavy.
One wrong step and would mess up everything. Su Chenghui had never felt this uncertain — he had never doubted himself so much in his life.
His shoulders slumped. Xiang Caiping noticed it, yet she didn’t have the slightest ounce of sympathy for him.
Compared to Su Chenghui’s resolve, Xiang Caiping’s was even bigger.
“No one shall bully my daughter.” She would protect Qingsang. She would never allow Su Chenghui or any of the Li family to hurt her again.
It was her fault in the past — it was her ill-considered idea that resulted in the situation today. From now on, she would take good care of Su Qingsang.

However, she did not hold it in. The moment the door was shut, she stuck her ear against the door and listened. Huo Jinyao saw this and chuckled, wanting to pull open the door and leave a gap.
Su Qingsang panicked. “Don’t!”
It would not be very pleasant if they were discovered.
“If you want to listen in to them, just do it openly.” Actually, he too was a little curious —what did Su Chenghui have to say to Xiang Caiping?
“Shh,” Su Qingsang motioned and pressed her ear against the door. Huo Jinyao felt like chuckling and mimicked her, his ear against the door too.
However, the soundproof quality of that door was excellent — he could not tell what the two older people were talking about at all. Instead, he observed Su Qingsang’s beautiful neckline and her tiny, delicate earlobe.
Trailing his gaze along the collar of her shirt all the way to the back, he could see her smooth, snow-white neck. It distracted Huo Jinyao completely — he could not be bothered to eavesdrop on his in-laws any longer.
He scooped up Su Qingsang, which shocked her when she found her body suddenly hovering in the air.
“Huo Jinyao!” What was he doing? She was not done listening yet. However, she could not make out the words clearly anyway.
“Wife.” Huo Jinyao carried her to the bedside in a quick few steps. “You went to Japan for a week, right?”
“Have I?” Su Qingsang seemed to suddenly realize what he was about to do. “I-It was only six days.” historical
“Mmm. That’s close enough to a week.” Huo Jinyao lowered her body onto the bed and crawled up next to her. “Wife, we haven’t had any in-depth communication in a week.”
Su Qingsang stared into his gaze and felt hot suddenly. “You—”
“I what?” Huo Jinyao planted a kiss onto the top of her nose as he continued. “Could you possibly not know that there mustn’t be a lack of communication to establish a good relationship between man and wife? Especially in-depth communication—”
“...”
“Now, let’s communicate.”
“Huo Jinyao—”
“Call me ‘Husband.’”
“Huo Jinyao—”

“Husband.”
“I’m here. Wife, I’m right here. Call me one more time—”
“Husband—”
The communication conducted right after that was, as expected, very in-depth indeed.
...
Su Qingsang’s body was still sore when she woke up in the morning. It was true what they said, that a short parting would make a couple grow even fonder of each other compared to a perpetual honeymoon, but it was also true that her body couldn’t keep up with it.
Huo Jinyao was already up. As it had rained today, he could not go about his morning exercise outdoors.
The moment Su Qingsang stirred, he noticed and gave her face a peck. “Wifey. Good morning.”
Morning? It was no longer early. Su Qingsang thought of getting up but lay back down when her waist gave way.
Huo Jinyao was about to chuckle when he saw her but did not dare to. This wife of his was great in every aspect, aside from her delicate body and her tendency to care too much about being judged.
“Wifey, are you alright?”
