Chapter 24 The Husband really is Good to His Wife_1

However, today, Gu Liancheng doesn’t entertain her whims. He didn’t bother glancing at her, flipping a page of the newspaper, taking a sip of his milk, and indifferently saying, "You’re not allowed to leave until you’ve finished it."

"Isn’t there room for negotiation?"

Even when Eleven clasps her hands together, tilts her head and pulls an adorable face, it doesn’t soften Gu Liancheng’s heart. He checks his wristwatch and says, "Aunt Fang, if she doesn’t finish her porridge within ten minutes, send more to her school at midday."

Eleven’s eyes widened.

Aunt Fang laughs, "Madam, you’d better drink up quickly. Mister always means what he says, if this drags on, by evening you will still be stuck with porridge!"

"I’ll drink, I’ll drink..." Eleven, not up to competing with Gu Liancheng, hastily takes the porridge from Aunt Fang’s hand and rushes spoonfuls into her mouth, "Ah, it’s hot..."

Gu Liancheng can’t help but look up, seeing her burned reaction, he smiles helplessly, "Take it slow."

"Mister is so kind to Madam, I’m so envious!"

"Hehe." Eleven looks up and laughs at Aunt Fang.

Is it good?

Well... it’s not bad!

It’s probably her obedience these past years, but Gu Liancheng never loses temper with her, he’s too gentle.

Or is it just the way he is?

Finishing her porridge, Eleven stands up, "I’m done dear! I’m off to school now."

"Sit."

"Eh?"

As expected, Aunt Fang goes for another bowl of something.

"Madam, this is leek juice and brown sugar water."

"Ah? For me?"

"That’s right, aren’t you menstruating?"

"Why should I drink it? I don’t have period pains..." Eleven looks at Gu Liancheng in confusion "Honey, I’m alright."

Yes, he’s seen it.

Brimming with energy, as if nothing’s happened.

"It’s not just for relieving menstrual pain. Look at the pimples on your face during your period, your skin is a bit rough. Drinking this leek and brown sugar water will make your skin smooth and rosy. It’s quite odd, most girls nowadays have period pains, but you Madam, you are jumping around during your period, it’s great."

"Er... hehe... maybe it’s because I’m in good health!"

Actually...

She suffered from menstrual cramps before, and quite severe ones at that.

However, after giving birth to Jiujiu, all these pains disappeared entirely. Even when her period comes, it never affects her.

"Honey, should I drink it even if I’m not hurting?"

"Have it, it’s good for your health."

"Mmm..." Eleven pouts, obediently drinks it up, and crinkles her brows in review, "It doesn’t taste good..."

"Bitter medicine benefits one’s health."

Yet as she sips the warm sugar water, Eleven feels an odd warmth in her heart.

When her stomach is off, he instructs Aunt Fang to make lamb porridge; during her period, he has Aunt Fang prepare brown sugar water.

He’s more considerate than most men.

"Honey, why are you so good to me?"

"Shouldn’t I be?" Gu Liancheng looks up at her.

But... they are not in a normal husband and wife relationship!

"Exactly, Madam, isn’t it normal for husband to take care of you?" Aunt Fang is even more bewildered.

"But what?"

"Heh, nothing..."

Then about the divorce agreement in the bedside drawer... what’s up with that?

Eleven squints her eyes, smiling. No matter how she looks at Gu Liancheng, he doesn’t seem like he wants a divorce.

"It’s about time," Gu Liancheng closes the newspaper and stands up. "I’ll take you to school."

...

West Shadow.

Eleven gets out of the luxurious Bentley, then leans down to ask, "Honey, what about our tutor..."

"I’ll make time to speak to him."

"Okay, goodbye honey!"

Off in the distance, some of West Shadow’s students enter campus and discuss the scene they’ve just witnessed.
