My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!-Chapter 207 - 118 Temporary Husband and Wife_2
She looked at Li Nuo, curiously asking, "What on earth is going on with you guys?"
Li Nuo did not answer her and strode into the house.
Li Anning followed behind him, the slight dejection having already disappeared without a trace.
Everyone was inexperienced, so no one took advantage of anyone.
However, Song Jiaren couldn’t blame her once she found out.
Her own husband had held another woman for the first time.
If it were her, she definitely could not endure.
But who made Song Jiaren not cherish what she had?
Moreover, there was a reason for everything, and she was guilt-free anyway...
Li Nuo entered the house, looking around, and sighed softly.
Song Yu’s family conditions were not very good, here there was only a small courtyard besides a big room.
The kitchen, bedroom, and storage room were all in one big room, and there were no dividers.
The only wooden bed wasn’t as large as those in Song Residence. It barely fit two people with no space between.
There was only one quilt as well.
Concerned that the Thief Sect might come here and reveal any flaws, Li Nuo had not altered anything.
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on freёwebnoѵel.com.
The observational skills of these elite thieves were incomparable to ordinary people.
The two definitely could not sleep on the same bed—it was so small there wasn’t even space to turn over. He and his real wife were not even that close, let alone with a fake wife.
The Princess, being of noble birth, managing to put up with a few nights in this shabby house, was already quite difficult.
Li Nuo could only endure some discomfort himself, took out a straw mat, and slept on the ground next to the bed.
That’s how they had slept last night.
Li Nuo sighed silently in his heart.
His wife never made him sleep on the ground.
But for the rich rewards in a few days, he could only endure.
He dismissed the idea of sleep; it was almost dark and he hadn’t eaten all day. He planned to go out and fill his stomach.
Although the Song couple usually cooked at home, becoming the leader of the Thief Sect was a joyous occasion. Spending a bit more on a meal out was reasonable.
At times like this, appearing too composed was actually abnormal.
As he walked to the courtyard gate, Li Anning proactively stepped forward, took his arm and said, "Outside, don’t call me ’Princess.’ Don’t give us away, or all our efforts will be wasted..."
Li Nuo, of course, understood and replied, "Understood, wife..."
When Song Yu and his wife went out, they always walked arm-in-arm, inseparable.
But for Li Nuo, feeling the firm pressure from Li Anning’s arm as they walked was a tremendous challenge.
At eighteen, brimming with vigor, how could he resist such temptation...
Li Anning looked at the suddenly halted Li Nuo and asked, "What’s wrong?"
Li Nuo bent down, adjusting the hem of his clothes, and said, "Just fixing my clothes, I’ll be done in a moment..."
...
Night.
In a residence in Chang’an, Chief Wu was checking the accounts for the month when a knock suddenly sounded at the door.
He marked the place he was checking, closed the account book, and said sternly, "Come in."
A figure pushed the door open and whispered, "Chief Wu, Chief Song and his wife just left their house and had a meal at a nearby tavern, ordering quite a few good dishes..."
Chief Wu responded indifferently, "They’re young and can’t keep still... But, just stepping into the role of Chief and celebrating with a meal out is normal. Besides this, did you find anything suspicious?"
The man shook his head and said, "Not for now. I sat at the table next to them. Their relationship as husband and wife is very close, calling each other ’husband’ and ’wife’ and even feeding each other during the meal, which was quite uncomfortable to watch..."
Chief Wu picked up a piece of paper from the table and said, "That’s how young married couples are. It matches the investigation results. It seems Chief Song probably doesn’t have any issues..."
The man asked, "So, should we stop following him?"
Chief Wu nodded, stating, "Keep following him for three more days. If nothing suspicious arises after three days, it will coincide with the Thief Sect’s big conference..."
Moments later, the man walked out of the residence, sighing softly.
Surveillance was always a tough job, especially following a newly-wed couple.
Crafted into beggar’s clothing, he came to a street corner and slowly lay down.
Inside the house, Li Anning lay on the bed, her eyes suddenly wide open.
She turned her head, lowered her voice, and said, "Someone is outside."
Li Nuo opened his eyes, instantly alert.
These guys, do they have to be so cautious, not even sparing their sleep at night?
He thought for a moment and said, "Shake the bed."
Li Anning, startled, asked, "What?"
No matter how careful, Li Nuo realized just then that if Song Yu and his wife were so affectionate during the day, how could they merely sleep side by side at night?
Shouldn’t they be doing what couples do before sleeping?
They were not like him and his own wife.
Moments later, Li Anning, blushing, and Li Nuo together shook the wooden bed beneath them, making creaking noises.
...
At dawn, Li Nuo rose from the straw mat, stretching his sore back.
The Princess on the bed was still deep in sleep. Li Nuo yawned, nudged her shoulder, and said, "Prin..."
He had only spoken a syllable when he instantly became alert. Such subconscious actions were very dangerous; if he called her "Princess" in front of the Thief Sect, their toil of the past few days would have been in vain.
