A husband like this (revised)

  The harsh words abruptly stopped, and Jing Nan's gaze fell on her face, his handsome eyebrows furrowed.

  At this moment, Gu Qianxun had already woken up. Seeing his gaze fall on her, she simply and lightly brushed off his hand, "You take a bath, I'll go out first."

  She sidled away, trying to avoid his tall figure, and walked out of the bathroom.

  He stretched out his arm and effortlessly pulled her back. A stumbling, weak body collided with his solid chest. They were so close to each other that she could even feel the beating of his heart, pounding against hers like a drum.

  That man last night... his aura was completely different from Jing Nan Xiu's...

  Wait! Why am I thinking of that guy again?!

  "Let me go..." She pushed him away. It had been two years since they got married, and this kind of closeness had happened countless times, but... she still couldn't resist this man at all.

  He remained motionless, only raising his hand to grasp her jaw, his movements unusually forceful. "I'll ask again, where did your injury come from?"

  "You don't have to know..." She pulled his hand down.

  Jing Nan Xiu sneered, "Gu Qian Xun, are you out of your mind? You're also my nominal wife, and now you've been beaten up. Do you know how much shame you've brought me?"

  Bitter smile.

  Look! I knew all along that he would never care about himself. But... just now, she actually still had a hint of expectation...

  Gu Qianxun couldn't help but want to mock her own sentimentalism.

  She didn't say anything and wanted to leave. Looking at her indifferent expression, Jing Nan Xi only felt that his heart was extremely uncomfortable, his eyebrows furrowed, and he refused to let her go. His eyes stared tightly at her, questioning: "What have you been doing outside? You didn't even come home last night."

  Gu Qianxun had been in a terrible mood all morning, thanks to the mother-daughter duo from the Jing family. Now, being repeatedly questioned by Jing Nanxiu only made her more annoyed and frustrated. "Aren't you always ignoring me? Besides, Mr. Jing, you're often not at home, have I ever asked about your whereabouts?"

  In this family, every time she was wronged, he either looked on coldly or added insult to injury. So, she had long been accustomed to suppressing everything in her heart, suppressing it so much that even she herself could hardly breathe...

  Let her go, Jing Nanxiao sneered with a laugh. "You'd better not have done anything to wrong me! Gu Qianxun, although I don't love you and won't fall in love with you in the future, you're still my woman, Jing Nanxiao's woman. If you dare to cheat on me, I'll make sure you die a terrible death!"

  After saying that, he even gave a warning bite on her snowy earlobe.

  She stood there, her ears were filled with his warmth, but... at this moment, she felt a chill run down her spine.

  ……

  Gu Qianxun was pushed out of the bathroom and stood stiffly in the bedroom. His words still echoed in her mind.

  In the past didn't love, in the future also won't fall in love...

  She's been hearing this phrase since the first day of her marriage, and now she can't even remember how many times. She had forgotten. But what she thought was a numb heart still hurts to this day.

  If he knew about last night and that man...

  Hmph... Even if he's angry, it's just because he's embarrassed himself in front of him.
