Meng Tingwan still couldn't sleep.

Before five o'clock, she opened her eyes, propped herself up on the bed with one hand, and saw an empty ward.

An'an came by last night after Cheng Yu left, but I didn't want her to stay here, so I kicked her out.

But now it seems that this is not a clear decision.

Meng Tingwan gave a wry smile, used her left hand (which wasn't in a cast) to lift the blanket, and prepared to get out of bed to go to the bathroom.

However, she had sprained her ankle and it was wrapped in bandages, so she felt a slight stinging sensation when she stepped on the ground.

The pain was not severe and was tolerable.

She unconsciously bit her lower lip, and her left hand, which was about to reach for the cabinet next to her, accidentally knocked over a glass, which fell to the ground.

Snapped!

The sound was very loud, especially in her room where she was all alone; the echo could be heard.

Meng Tingwan lowered her head without any expression, stared at the fragments on the ground for a few seconds, and sighed helplessly.

So fragile.

I don't know if these three words are referring to the cup or to myself.

Just as she was about to walk to the bathroom, the hospital room door, which had been closed all night, was pushed open again.

Meng Tingwan thought it was An'an who had arrived, and was about to speak.

But the person who came was Cheng Yu, who had left the night before.

The man was followed by his special assistant.

"Didn't you leave?" Meng Tingwan blurted out.

A hint of worry flashed in Cheng Yu's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. His voice was slightly hoarse, "My flight is at eight o'clock. Can't I come and see my wife before I leave?"

The word "wife" is familiar to any married woman.

But to Meng Tingwan, it was as if she were a completely unfamiliar name.

"of course can."

She had no reason, nor the right, to say no.

"But your flight is at eight o'clock. Isn't it too early for you to come now?" Meng Tingwan asked the two of them.

Cheng Yu's eyes darkened; he was very dissatisfied with her insistence on getting a clear answer.

He gritted his teeth and pulled Feng Zhuo to take the blame, saying, "He needs to talk to me about something."

The assistant who followed the boss in without saying a word since entering the room: "..."

What?

Am I also part of your play?

Feng Zhuo almost blurted out the words he wanted to explain, but he stopped himself abruptly.

Since I'm just an employee and rely on my boss for a salary, I guess I'll just have to take the blame.

"Yes, they called a meeting at the last minute, so I called the boss." Feng Zhuo had a perfect smile on his face, showing no sign of anything amiss.

In reality, he was silently complaining to himself:

What about the 8 o'clock flight, what about seeing his wife before leaving?

It's all a lie!

They never left at all!

I even slept in the car with them for one night.

The boss simply told the other party he wouldn't go, and instead held an online meeting in his car, which lasted from 10 a.m. until 3 a.m.

Then I went home, took a shower, changed my clothes, and went straight to the hospital.

Sure enough, before I even entered the door, I heard the sound of something being smashed.

I took a closer look at the boss at the time, and his brows were so furrowed that they could have trapped a wasp.

Feng Zhuo didn't dare say a single word of these things.

He knew perfectly well about his boss and his wife's affair.

This situation is beyond the control of a mere assistant like him.

It's better to maintain the status quo.

Meng Tingwan wasn't interested in his affairs to begin with, so she didn't ask any further questions after hearing them.

Cheng Yu walked up to her and, seeing her about to take a step, simply picked her up and carried her in his arms.

Meng Tingwan was startled and instinctively wrapped her left arm tightly around his neck, but she wasn't really used to his intimate gesture.

"Need to go to the restroom?"

Meeting the man's eyes, she blinked slightly and nodded, "Mm."

Without saying a word, Cheng Yu strode over the shards and carried her to the bathroom.

Watching the two figures go inside, Feng Zhuo, with keen insight, picked up a broom and swept the broken pieces on the ground into the trash can.

He also carefully checked under the bed and under the table to make sure there were no broken glass before leaving the house.

In the bathroom.

Cheng Yu carefully placed the person on the ground, stood up, and frowned when he saw the cast on her arm.

Meng Tingwan didn't notice his expression. She moved her foot towards the toilet, then lifted the lid, hooked her fingers around the edge of her pants, and suddenly remembered that Cheng Yu hadn't left yet.

"Aren't you leaving?"

She asked.

"I've seen every part of you before."

Hearing the man's matter-of-fact tone, Meng Tingwan stopped being coy.

He's right.

They've been completely honest with each other countless times, so what difference does it make whether they go out or not?

So, Meng Tingwan pulled down her pants by the hem and sat on the toilet.

Cheng Yu watched her movements, lowered his eyes, turned around, walked to the sink, and turned on the tap.

The sound of rushing water echoed in the bathroom.

About a minute later.

Cheng Yu heard the woman behind him call out, "Cheng Yu."

"what happened?"

"help me."

Meng Tingwan spoke calmly, sitting on the toilet and looking at the man's back.

Cheng Yu turned off the water pipe, walked to her side, and looked down at the woman's delicate and beautiful face.

A beauty mark at the corner of the eye is usually quite alluring.

But at this moment, she actually looked rather pitiful.

The man tightened his throat, concealing the darkness in his eyes well.

He reached out and lifted her up, holding her trousers by the hem with both hands to help her up.

His fingertips brushed against the soft flesh of her waist, causing the woman in his arms to tremble slightly.

She is ticklish, especially around her waist.

"It seems I won't be able to follow this month's routine."

Meng Tingwan put her left arm around his waist and spoke.

Cheng Yu gave a casual "hmm," and said, "I'll make it up next month."

Upon hearing the man's reply, Meng Tingwan laughed out loud, a rare occurrence for her.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I just find it funny." The woman's eyes were filled with laughter.

The 28th of each month is the day that Cheng Yu and I agreed to consummate our marriage on when we got married.

For the past five years, I haven't missed a single one.

Cheng Yu glanced at her smile and found it inexplicably irritating.

“Cheng Yu, I understand you, but we ultimately don’t have that kind of feeling, so you really have to go find someone outside…”

Before the woman could finish speaking, Cheng Yu lowered his head and bit her lip, sucking on it fiercely.

Meng Tingwan winced in pain, her brows furrowing deeply, but she did not resist.

After the man left her lips, Meng Tingwan's chin was lifted, forcing her to look up and meet his gaze.

Cheng Yu seemed very dissatisfied with what she had just said, his voice so cold it could freeze a person to death, "Meng Tingwan, I don't think your injury is serious at all. Anyway, I've been the one doing all the work, so even if you have a cast on, it won't affect anything."

"I……"

Meng Tingwan could tell he was genuinely angry.

But I didn't say anything wrong.

It was just a transaction; he didn't need to uphold any so-called virtues.

Even if he goes to find another woman, it won't affect him.

It's just that I'm afraid he, a grown man, will get sick from holding it in.

It's like a dog biting Lü Dongbin—they don't appreciate a kind heart!

Meng Tingwan silently complained to herself.

Seeing that she kept her head down and didn't say anything, Cheng Yu knew that this woman had started cursing him in her heart.

He silently picked the person up again and walked out of the bathroom.

The moment he placed her on the bed, Cheng Yu whispered in her ear, "If you're worried I'll get sick from holding it in, then once every ten days."

Once every ten days?

That means three times a month!

Excluding the time for menstruation, it's enough for two periods.

"No."

Meng Tingwan refused quickly.

His entire body was filled with resistance.

Cheng Yu straightened up, looked down at her, and scoffed, "Was your refusal useful?"

The original agreement stipulated three times, but it was later changed to once a month to accommodate her.

Since she's so worried about me now, let's change the rules.

Meng Tingwan was speechless.

A feeling of weakness washed over me.

It's just two more times than before.

Anyway, I won't live long.

It's not impossible to agree to his request.

"Okay, I agree."
