"Wife, wife..." Ye Anguo whispered in Jiang Lai's ear.

Ye Anguo's voice was gentle, and you could tell from his voice that he doted on Jiang Lai. However, no matter how gentle and doting he was, it was like casting a flirtatious glance at a blind person.

Jiang Lai was so sleepy she was about to die, so she slapped Ye Anguo, who was buzzing in her ear, and said, "I'll slap you to death, you fly."

Okay, *smack* and the world went quiet.

This also successfully reminded Ye of his madness last night. Ye Anguo could only smile helplessly at this. He had to bear the consequences of his own actions. Not only today, but Jiang Lai might not be able to give him his way in the next few days.

If Jiang Lai knew what Ye Anguo was thinking at this moment, she would probably just give him a thumbs up. He has a clear understanding of himself, and his first sister from two lifetimes almost scared him.

Jiang Lai was exhausted. She tossed and turned all night like a pancake. She was so tired that even the strands of her hair seemed to be crying out. When she finally woke up, it was already noon, when the sun was at its strongest.

In August, the air felt thick with heat. If she weren't so tired, Jiang Lai would have woken up from the heat long ago. Of course, she didn't feel good now either; Jiang Lai felt covered in sweat.

Jiang Lai suddenly felt very irritable, uncomfortable all over, and unbearably hot. When she woke up, there was no one beside her. A strange sense of grievance welled up in her heart, and she felt sad. Her eyes immediately filled with tears.

When Ye Anguo came in carrying a floor fan, he saw Jiang Lai looking aggrieved and in tears, which broke his heart.

"What's wrong? Are you hurting somewhere?" Although he didn't understand why Jiang Lai was crying, Ye Anguo immediately hugged her to comfort her, gently stroking her back as he softly asked, "Are you hurting somewhere?"

"Waaah... I don't know either, I'm just so tired, so hot, so uncomfortable..." Actually, Jiang Lai didn't know what she was feeling wronged about, but she just felt so wronged.

"I bought a fan and heated the water. How about we use the fan after you take a shower? If you feel unwell anywhere, we can go to the hospital to get it checked out?" Ye Anguo was very patient, his eyes full of tenderness for Jiang Lai.

Fortunately, Jiang Lai was just being sentimental for a moment. It was probably because she was getting married and leaving her parents, and she was also feeling unwell, so she was feeling down for a while.

This was the first time Jiang Lai had lost control of her emotions like this, and she felt quite embarrassed, two red clouds rising to her cheeks: "Where did you go? I didn't see you when I woke up."

Jiang Lai's voice carried a shyness she herself didn't realize. Jiang Lai was embarrassed, but Ye Anguo, the old man who had just broken his vows last night and whose old house was on fire and couldn't be easily put out, was in a bad mood.

Ye Anguo cleared his throat, trying his best to keep a serious voice, afraid that his wife would think he was a man who only thought with his lower body. If that affected his respectable reputation, he might have to go back to his previous vegetarian monk life.

"We just moved here and are missing a lot of things. We didn't expect it to be this hot these past few days, so we asked someone to buy us a fan, and we just brought it back," Ye Anguo explained, then quickly added, "Would you like to turn on the fan now to cool off?"

"No, I want to take a shower." Jiang Lai had calmed down by now, but she felt sticky all over and just wanted to take a shower right away.

"Then I'll go and carry the bathtub to the bathroom," Ye Anguo said immediately.

"Okay." Jiang Lai said, stepping out of Ye Anguo's arms.

However, Ye Anguo remained silent for a long time. When she looked up, she found that Ye Anguo's eyes were red and he was staring at her as if he wanted to devour her.

"Huh?...Oh dear..." Jiang Lai was initially puzzled, but following Ye Anguo's gaze, she looked down and discovered that she had already exposed herself.

Although Jiang Lai was so tired last night that she didn't even know when she fell asleep, she only felt that the man on top of her was like a tireless old ox, constantly working. But at least he didn't forget to clean her up afterwards, otherwise she wouldn't feel refreshed now, although that refreshment has now turned into sticky sweat.

Jiang Lai hurriedly pulled down the hem of her nightgown, and subconsciously pressed it down even further, instantly covering her long, fair legs.

Ye Anguo swallowed hard, forcing himself to look away from Jiang Lai. He practically fled, saying, "I'll go get some water. Hurry up too."

Jiang Lai's face was flushed and hot, as if it were about to steam.

"Jiang Lai, I'm here! Are you up yet?" Kang always appears at the right time. Xiaoxiao's loud voice rang out again at the courtyard gate.

Hearing her voice, Jiang Lai's eyes lit up. Finally, someone broke the awkward atmosphere. Ye Anguo frowned, regretting once again that he had transferred Yao Jianwei to be his colleague. Ye Anguo had a premonition that he would be bothered by Kang Xiaoxiao like this many times in the future.

"Comrade Kang, everyone is on lunch break, could you please keep your voice down?" Ye Anguo was quite intimidating when he wasn't expressionless, and he successfully silenced Kang Xiaoxiao.

Kang Xiaoxiao thought to herself: I don't understand how someone as gentle and delicate as Jiang Lai could fall for Ye Anguo.

"Uh... I'll come back later." Kang Xiaoxiao saw that Ye Anguo was a little hesitant, but without delay, she shouted loudly upstairs, "Jiang Lai, I'll come back later."

Then Kang Xiaoxiao quickly slipped away. She had no choice but to leave. Yao Jianwei had told her not to disturb Ye Anguo and Jiang Lai's time together. Kang Xiaoxiao even specially chose to come at noon, but who knew that Ye Anguo would be home at this time. If she had known, she would have come later.

Kang Xiaoxiao smiled bitterly to herself. Her husband was unreliable. He had clearly said that Ye Anguo didn't have the habit of taking a lunch break and never went to work on time, but only went to work early. She never expected that he would still be at home when it was almost time for work.
