Chapter 168: Xie Qingcen: We are husband and wife, you should understand.

Seeing this, Xie Qingcen's dark eyes were filled with a triumphant smile.

He looked at Ruan Liuzheng's fair profile and couldn't help but kiss her gently, resting his chin lightly on Ruan Liuzheng's shoulder. "Even if you don't feel sorry for the old lady, you should feel sorry for your husband."

"Mrs. Xie, we've been married for almost a week."

Xie Qingcen buried his head in Ruan Liuzheng's neck, and at the end of his words, he could even hear a hint of grievance.

Food, sex and nature are human nature. Men have their own bad habits, and he is no exception.

Before meeting Ruan Liuzheng, he had never had any desires. Even during adolescence, when he was most impulsive, he could hold back as long as he wanted. He

never felt tired.

His family never urged him to do anything because they knew he had his own ideas. Zeng Shuwan and Xie Zhenting were very relieved about this.

But this year, the two people who were relieved had subtly changed, and the most obvious one was Zeng Shuwan.

Zeng Shuwan had previously been delighted to see him avoid the philandering of other young men from aristocratic families. But as he aged, and the people around him were almost all married and having children, Zeng Shuwan began to feel anxious. He was approaching

his thirties, and his old friends were gradually having grandchildren and great-grandchildren. At almost every gathering, the couple would vaguely see their friends showing off. She

was truly envious!

Furthermore, since the incident with Xie Qingshu, Xie Qingcen was the only legitimate heir left in the Xie family. If only he could occasionally have a woman around, or even a serious relationship.

But there were none. Not even a woman, let alone a woman, and none of his secretaries were non-male.

Zeng Shuwan's hair fell out in clumps, fearing that this scoundrel of hers would one day bring her a big surprise.

Although Xie Qingcen kept silent, he could guess a little about what Zeng Shuwan and Xie Zhenting were thinking.

He felt a bit helpless at his old father and mother's wild imaginations.

But he hadn't prepared to explain anything, because before meeting Ruan Liuzheng, he hadn't really been interested in relationships. A relationship

was the icing on the cake, but without, it was still beautiful.

Xie Qingcen had grown up with this mentality, all the way to his thirties. In those decades, he had never even held a woman's hand. He

was incredibly naive about certain things.

However, after meeting Ruan Liuzheng, others might not have noticed, but he felt it most deeply. The desires he had so deliberately suppressed were now surging.

He could barely contain them.

Before Ruan Liuzheng agreed, he'd thought it was fine, having tried hard not to show them to maintain his image. But

now that she was his legitimate wife, it wasn't unreasonable for him to harbor some ill intentions.

Xie Qingcen's snow-white Adam's apple couldn't help but rise and fall at the thought. He raised his hand, gently lifting a strand of Ruan Liuzheng's hair with his fingertips.

His eyes were deep and mixed with an ambiguous emotion.

Ruan Liuzheng's body stiffened slightly, and the movement that was originally intended to break free was subconsciously stopped.

Her eyes widened, and she looked at Xie Qingcen in disbelief, "You!"

Xie Qingcen nodded without hesitation, and a hint of helplessness flashed across his dark eyes.

He really couldn't be blamed for this!

From the moment he met Ruan Liuzheng, he had revealed his feelings to her.

Besides, he had never thought about having a platonic relationship with Ruan Liuzheng. He didn't touch her before because he respected her and wanted to wait until it was legitimate.

Ruan Liuzheng had experienced a failed marriage, and he really didn't want to wrong Ruan Liuzheng again. The best way was to take it slowly.

But who could have thought of the things that happened later, not to mention that the two of them had become husband and wife. If he endured it any longer, even he would probably question his ability.

Xie Qingcen's eyes darkened, he took a deep breath, and his clear voice was a little hoarse, "Well, we are husband and wife, you should understand."

Understand what? Ruan Liuzheng really didn't want to talk to him right now, but her current situation forced her to stand up and face it.

Her palms clenched, and her eyelashes trembled slightly. "No! At least not now."

"Xie Qingcen, based on our current relationship and my promise to you, I will not refuse to fulfill my obligations. But..."

Ruan Liuzheng changed her tone, and her cold almond-shaped eyes glanced around, and her pale pink lips slowly pursed. "Do you think this situation is suitable?"

She did not deny that she was attracted to Xie Qingcen. She was also a woman and had desires.

Since her divorce from Fu Yanci, she had never thought of putting herself in a difficult position again.

But today was her first visit as a new daughter-in-law, and she could not let Xie Qingcen act recklessly under any circumstances.

The Xie family's old house was a garden-style building, and the soundproofing alone was enough for Ruan Liuzheng to refuse.

Xie Qingcen's upturned eyes drooped, and he nestled into Ruan Liuzheng's shoulder, his dark phoenix eyes slightly aggrieved, like a pitiful big dog.

He raised his eyebrows and lowered his voice, "Wife..."

Ruan Liuzheng was relieved to see him calm down. She also knew in her heart that Xie Qingcen had been wronged during this period.

Not only did she have a lot of things to do at the company, but there was also Fu Jingcheng who pestered Xie Qingcen almost every night. Otherwise... the two of them would have been in the same room and sleeping in the same bed.

She let out a breath lightly, "Let Chengcheng sleep here with Auntie tonight. We will pick him up tomorrow."

After spending the morning together, Ruan Liuzheng knew that Zeng Shuwan did not dislike Fu Jingcheng because of her relationship with Fu Yanci. On the contrary, after learning that Fu Jingcheng really had the blood of the Xie family, she liked Fu Jingcheng even more.

She knew that Xie Qingcen might have endured to the extreme. In this case, it would be better to satisfy him early. One

should still pamper one's own man.

Ruan Liuzheng has never been a submissive person.

Seeing this, the corners of Xie Qingcen's thin lips slowly rose. He hugged Ruan Liuzheng tightly, and a faint white light flashed across his dark eyes.

Such a result is simply hard to be unhappy!

...

On the other side, Jiang Yubai caught up with Gu Qingran and Yun Jing. He looked at the woman in Gu Qingran's arms, his eyes stunned for a moment.

He was just two seconds late, how come there was a woman in Gu Qingran's arms?

What did he miss?

A malicious light flashed across Jiang Yubai's eyes. He rubbed his hands together and stepped forward, his eyes fixed on Gu Qingran's face, trying to get a glimpse of something from Gu Qingran's indifferent expression.

Gu Qingran closed his eyes, his temples twitching with pain, and his voice was cold, "Hurry up and get over here!"

His usual cold tone was unconsciously mixed with a bit of anger.
