My Husband Is Not Easy To Mess With. - Chapter 59: Those Few Days of Unstable Emotions
Chapter 59: Those Few Days of Unstable Emotions
Nie Yao had a bit of a headache.
However, the conduct of his subordinates was learned from him, so he wasn’t in a position to criticize.
“It’s nothing.”
He waved his hand.
At least they knew not to let someone live in the palace, right? Given the mental state of this subordinate, being able to do this was already not easy.
Nie Yao told him to use the other half of the money to buy some good horses for the brothers.
From now on, he would be eating his wife’s “soft-rice” (living off his partner’s income) and wouldn’t need to earn extra money himself.
Nie Yao: “Hand over the matters of No. 2 stronghold to He Dong… Why are you crying? I’m not telling you to take a vacation! I said I have a more important task for you!”
“Really?”
“Would I lie to you!”
Nie Yao placed his hand on Qian Henduo, applying a bit of pressure to let him feel the importance of the mission, and his tone became solemn, “Someone has already discovered His Majesty’s identity.”
Once his identity is made public.
It will certainly cause an uproar.
He needed to prepare early.
“My fulang (wife/husband of a male) is the most important person in my life. His life is more important than mine. I’m entrusting his safety to you. Are you capable of handling this mission?”
“Yes!!”
Qian Henduo stood ramrod straight, his eyes full of determination.
He swore, “Don’t worry, my Lord! I will protect saofulang (brother’s wife/husband) at all costs!”
“Good, then this matter is entrusted to you.”
Qian Henduo wasn’t fond of thinking, but he was highly skilled in martial arts, and his perception was very keen.
Most importantly, he possessed absolute loyalty.
As long as he was alive, his wife would definitely be safe.
“Bring more men from the No. 2 stronghold,” Nie Yao instructed. “Treat this mission as a top-secret level. Other matters can be put aside, but His Majesty must not suffer any mishap!”
“Yes!”
Qian Henduo was thrilled.
Having followed his boss for so many years, this was the first time he had received a top-secret mission.
He took the documents and left, chest puffed out.
As for the matter of passing the message? His Lord said he would handle it.
Anyway, he would go inform the client of the result first.
— No.
“Lanlan.”
While Qian Henduo was handing over his work, Nie Yao told his wife about Zong Huan’s attempt to bribe Qian Henduo.
He said that Zong Huan was cunning.
He knew to test the relationship between him and his wife through Qian Henduo.
If it were according to Nie Yao’s previous persona, it wouldn’t have mattered even if Qian Henduo had agreed to help him find a broken house in the palace.
But Qian Henduo happened to refuse.
Doesn’t this show that his trusted subordinate holds his wife, the Emperor, in high regard?
Nie Yao: “I’ve arranged a betrayal plot for him; he will play the part well.”
He squeezed his wife’s fingers.
He said he would let Qian Henduo follow him from now on and have him take his wife along wherever he went so that he could feel at ease.
“So he belongs to me from now on?” Du Suilan understood his intention but deliberately misinterpreted it, “You won’t take him back, right?”
“…No. If you want to use him, keep him.”
His wife only wanted a person; Nie Yao would certainly give him away.
He didn’t think it was a big deal.
“You paused just now. Do you not want to give him? Were you reluctant?” Du Suilan raised his voice.
Nie Yao: ???
Wife, perhaps you should listen to what you’re saying.
“Not speaking?” His silence made Du Suilan even more agitated. He jumped up and angrily stomped his foot, “Aha! You really think that!”
“No. Absolutely not, wife. Do you think I’m such a petty person?”
“Then what did you mean just now!”
It was only a minor issue, but Du Suilan held onto it.
His temper was terrifyingly big.
Nie Yao didn’t understand what was wrong with him.
He used to only throw minor tantrums in front of him and could be appeased quickly.
But recently, he was very prone to getting angry and being unreasonable. It wasn’t the usual intentional mischief; Nie Yao knew he was genuinely upset.
Nie Yao was worried he would damage his health from anger, so he asked him to sit down and talk properly.
“Don’t change the subject with me!” Du Suilan excitedly slapped his hand away. “Were you lying when you said you loved me? Do you regret marrying me?”
“No. Truly not!”
Nie Yao felt he was unwell and was concerned he might be sick. “Wife, are you tired recently? Should I call a doctor to check on you?”
“You think I’m sick?”
Du Suilan looked as if he had heard something hurtful.
His eyes reddened, and tears began to fall.
Nie Yao: !!!
This was serious!
Nie Yao quickly wiped his tears, “No, I truly don’t. Wife, don’t be angry. Tell me what I did wrong, and I’ll change, okay?”
“You think I’m being unreasonable?!”
“No, wife. I love you. How could I think you are being unreasonable?”
Nie Yao felt that even if his wife was doing that, he was still very cute.
He liked it.
He thought his wife was utterly adorable in every way.
Nie Yao pulled him into his arms and kissed his tear-streaked face with some distress, “My wife is soft and sweet even when he’s throwing a fit. I love it so much.”
“Really?”
“Of course, it’s true!”
Nie Yao lifted his wife’s hands, “Look at my wife’s small hands, they are white, the fingers are long and beautiful, and even the nails are pink and tender.”
He kissed them.
He paid attention to every single finger, showing that he truly loved him.
His husband never lied to him after they got married.
Du Suilan’s complexion improved a little, but he still felt down. Pouting, he said, “So only my hands are good-looking?”
“Every part of you is good-looking.”
Nie Yao gently kissed his cheek.
Then slowly moved downward.
Next, he gently placed the person on the bed, kissing every spot carefully.
Every word he spoke was soothing: “Wife, I love you.”
“Tell me if you are uncomfortable anywhere, okay? Don’t endure it alone; I worry about you very much.”
“We are husbands, and we should bear physical discomfort together, right?”
Nie Yao didn’t think his wife’s abnormality was due to personality.
He had heard that girls in the previous life would have a few days of feeling unwell every month, and he thought his wife was experiencing the same.
After all, his wife could also get pregnant.
It was just a bit more difficult.
“Wuu… wuwu…” Du Suilan, who had been furious moments ago, started crying again quickly.
He couldn’t hold back.
Little pearls of tears kept falling.
“Wuwu… Husband…” Du Suilan reached out for a hug, his pitiful little face rubbing against him, transferring tears and snot onto his clothes, “I… wuwu… I’m so angry…”
“I’m so worried you will leave me.”
“You don’t like me, even getting married was wuwu… was… me forcing you wuu… wuwuwu…”
“I love you. Wife, I love you.”
His wife’s vulnerable, pitiful, and helpless look made Nie Yao incredibly distressed.
He didn’t care about what was on his clothes.
He told his wife over and over again, “I love you, wife, I love you. Don’t be afraid. I wanted to marry you, very, very much.”
“You know me. If I truly didn’t want to, no one could force me.”
“I love you, wife, I love you…”
Saying the same words countless times wouldn’t bring the slightest hint of impatience. On the contrary, each time was deep, gentle, and came from the heart.
Gradually, Du Suilan stopped crying.
His delicate little nose, which had been sniffing, also calmed down, and his breathing became steady.
