"Brother Chen, I'm sorry..."
New novel chapters are published on freewёbn૦νeɭ.com.
Zhang Shan Ni looked at the bloodstains from the pregnant woman on her body and apologized softly to her newlywed husband. Fortunately, her clothes were of a darker fabric, and if you didn't look closely, it wasn't very noticeable.
Because of the pungent smell of blood, Zhang Shan Ni felt waves of discomfort in her stomach. Perhaps having lived through the apocalypse, she had an instinctive aversion to the smell of blood.
As for her impulsive act of rushing to save the pregnant woman, she didn't think there was anything wrong with helping someone in need, especially when it was a pregnant woman who required special care.
However, on their joyous day of marriage registration, getting a pregnant woman's "unclean" blood on her, she felt it necessary to apologize to Xie Jingchen, at least to show a good attitude of 'acknowledging her mistake', as a preventative measure for when they returned home later.
At that time, traditional old-fashioned thoughts still held many taboos about such 'unclean' blood.
"What's there to be sorry about? You didn't do anything wrong!" Xie Jingchen also noticed the speckled bloodstains on the hem of his little wife's clothes and pants. Thanks to the jacket from the pregnant woman's husband, the blood on her body wasn't much, and it was barely noticeable unless you looked closely, although it would be disturbing and uncomfortable if you did see it clearly.
He took off his long coat and draped it over her shoulders, commanding, "Put it on, let's hurry home after we've finished shopping." Once they got back, he would have to prepare some orange peel hot water for her to wash away the bad luck from her body!
"Okay, okay." Feeling short of breath, Zhang Shan Ni obediently nodded repeatedly.
Zhang Shan Ni dismally realized that in the presence of her husband, she always felt inexplicably short of breath and guilt-ridden. Perhaps it was his sharp gaze?
She obediently put on her husband's military coat and noticed from the corner of her eye that many dark and rough men on the street were indeed wearing sleeveless undershirts, but they were clearly from poor or extremely impoverished households, their clothes barely sufficient.
Seeing Xie Jingchen wearing a sleeveless undershirt in the street for the second time because of her, Zhang Shan Ni felt like crying without tears:
Had she become inseparable from her husband's coat? Having known Xie Jingchen for just two days, she had twice made him lend her his coat, repeatedly forcing her to walk the streets wearing her now official husband's clothes...
Truly, this fact made her feel stifled.
Although Xie Jingchen had a good build, muscular and well-defined without looking rough – truly easy on the eyes!
This reality only made Zhang Shan Ni feel even more stifled. He was her husband, why should she let others feast their eyes on free eye candy?
If this scene were in private, she wouldn't feel this way, but in public, she genuinely felt it was a huge loss! It was as if all the passing older sisters and lustful women had their fill of ice cream!
Compared to Zhang Shan Ni and Xie Jingchen, who could easily leave, Lin Aihong was practically 'pressed' to go to the hospital, almost as if she were a criminal, with 'guards' from the passionate public watching over her.
When Chen Xiufang entered the delivery room and Li Jianfeng gradually calmed down, he couldn't find Zhang Shan Ni and Xie Jingchen, the Good Persons. He had no choice but to ask a familiar sister from the same courtyard about the situation and received a detailed account. Every now and then, his gaze at Lin Aihong carried a hint of ruthlessness.
Being from the same courtyard, who didn't know he was the only male inheritor for three generations?! It took five years of marriage to finally conceive a child. And Lin Aihong, being from the same courtyard – how could she not be aware!
As his family was well-to-do and his father capable, his wife's family conditions had further improved, one could say they were neither worried about food nor lacking in power and influence.
With a good family background, there had always been many people envious of their rising fortunes, and with his wife unable to conceive for so long, many people gossiped secretly, hoping for their misfortune, heaping pressure and rumors onto him. Therefore, when he learned of his wife's pregnancy, the entire family treated her like a queen!
If it weren't for his wife Chen Xiufang's strong dislike for being watched over all day, plus she had safely passed the most dangerous first three months, and had been doing well over the past six months, his mother would never have allowed her to go out alone!
And now, at the last critical moment, there was trouble!
"Brother Li, Brother Li, I really wasn't trying to flee at that time, I, I wanted to ride a bike to inform you!"
Lin Aihong felt her scalp tingle under Li Jianfeng's intense stare, trying to turn black into red – as long as he let it go, her mother and father wouldn't scold her when she got back!
