Chapter 861
After contemplating for a while, Yang Chen asked, “Darling, is being with me really all that stressful? Please be honest . ”
An Xin blinked a few times . “Stressful? Of course, it is . ”
Yang Chen’s face fell . “I see . I suppose Ruoxi isn’t the only one who feels that way . ”
“Hmm? Why would Sister Ruoxi be stressed? She’s already your legal wife . As your lover, I worry about you being with other women and whether or not you remember me . ” An Xin was filled with jealousy . “If I were to be with you every day, I wouldn’t need to stress . ”
Yang Chen was puzzled at her reply . “Was that what you meant by stress?”
“What else?” An Xin got confused .
Yang Chen smiled . “You silly woman, why wouldn’t I spend time with you? You never call me when you’re busy . And It’s not like you don’t know how free I am . ”
An Xin stuck out her tongue . “Hehe, hubby you haven’t told me . What were you referring to?”
Yang Chen said, slightly embarrassed by it, “Ruoxi told me earlier that she feels pain from the fact that we come from two separate worlds . So I don’t know what to say to her . I thought you would feel the same . ”
An Xin tilted her head in confusion at first but she giggled afterwards . “Hubby, did she really say that?”
“Yeah… more or less . It’s more complicated,” Yang Chen said in frustration .
An Xin chuckled and pecked his cheeks .
“How is that stressful? Men are supposed to be stronger than women . I don’t know about others but I definitely want my man to be the strongest one of all . It’s not like I’m his opponent, so why would I be stressed? It’s fine as long as your feelings for me are genuine,” An Xin said nonchalantly .
Yang Chen was unconvinced . “Really?”
An Xin nodded . “Yeah . Think about this, I might not be filthy rich but my family’s net worth is in the billions . Why would I want a guy who only has a hundred million? It’s not that I’m materialistic, but we wouldn’t have anything in common . Average people have to take everyday expenses into account . But here we are spending millions on cars and mansions like it’s nothing . Money is just a number . They live in two different worlds which is why they can’t be together . But you’re rich and powerful, stronger than me, that’s why I feel comfortable with you . ”
Yang Chen was still not buying it . “No way… then why did you agree to follow me when you first met me? You didn’t even know what kind of person I was . ”
An Xin felt shy . “Actually… if you didn’t show me how powerful you were…I don’t think I would have agreed to be with you . ”
“What?” Yang Chen widened his eyes . “Are you asking for a spanking?”
“Hubby don’t be angry!” An Xin covered her butt . “It’s not that I’m being shallow . You wouldn’t have saved me if I was . It was destined to happen . Plus, if you had less money than me, wouldn’t you be completely dependant on me?”
Yang Chen thought about it and felt that it made sense . If he wasn’t strong enough, Lin Ruoxi would’ve died ages ago . He couldn’t have saved her from the pub back then . It was better to be taken by him than to be raped by a bunch of people .
As cruel as it sounded, it was the reality of it .
So why did she suddenly talk about being unworthy! What nonsense! he thought .
Yang Chen felt much better and continued to ask, “Then darling, tell me, are you okay with me killing people?”
An Xin hesitated before answering with a soft voice, “Killing isn’t right but I know you have your reasons for it . I can understand if you killed someone to protect us . It’s not like you do it for sport . You only do it when provoked”
Yang Chen gave in eventually .
He sat up to let An Xin lie on his lap, “Alright you can sleep . I’ll take you out for lunch when you wake . ”
An Xin relaxed and nodded . Her eyes closed and she went into deep sleep minutes later out of exhaustion .
Yang Chen caressed her hair .
An Xin’s breathing settled into a rhythmic pattern . “Hubby… if you keep stroking my hair like that I’ll turn bald…”
“I’ll leave you if you become bald,” Yang Chen joked .
An Xin pouted . “Don’t leave me… I’ll still love you even if you become fat and old…”
Yang Chen’s hand paused when he heard that, his eyes filled with affection .
An Xin woke up several hours later . It was already twelve in the afternoon .
An Xin decided to skip work since Yang Chen said they would go out for lunch together . It’s not like anyone could control her .
Yang Chen became her only ‘family’ ever since she had a falling out with her real family .
Yang Chen had already texted Guo Xuehua to inform them that they didn’t have to wait for him . He took An Xin out to a restaurant for lunch after she got ready .
Although he was worried about Lin Ruoxi, he knew that the best remedy for many things was time . So he tried to talk about the interesting experiences he had encountered overseas, as an attempt to get closer to her .
They walked around the mall hand-in-hand . As they passed the cinemas, An Xin said, “Hubby, Spider-Man 4 is just released, isn’t it? Let’s go watch it!”
Yang Chen frowned . He was never really a fan of sci-fi action movies . His life was more interesting and filled with real-life people with superpowers .
“What’s so interesting about watching a guy swing here and there? If you want I can carry you and fly . ” Yang Chen wasn’t amused .
An Xin pouted . “Oh… Do you think I’m childish?”
Yang Chen was stunned for a while and replied, “No, let’s go watch it . ”
“Hmm?” An Xin couldn’t understand why he changed his mind .
Yang Chen explained . “I always force my opinion on you guys . You reminded me how hurtful my actions can be . That’s why I want to take the initiative and do things that you guys might enjoy . I’ll watch Spider-Man with you and then I’ll watch Korean dramas with Ruoxi at night when I get home . That way you can say that we have more in common . ”
An Xin beamed and kissed his cheeks . “That’s great, but don’t turn into a sissy from watching Korean dramas!”
Yang Chen smiled and said nothing . He had An Xin wait for him while he queued up for tickets .
Because the movie was a new release, many people were already waiting in line for the movie . Yang Chen wasn’t in a hurry anyway so he just stood and waited .
Suddenly, he saw a familiar silhouette that he had almost forgotten from the corner of his eye…
