Chapter 86: Wife, My Mouth Felt a Bit Dry.

The boy saw Shen Qingxuan’s face turn crimson and thought he felt shy.

He quickly switched to another topic and wore a polite, gentle smile.

“Little Sister, hello, I’m Song Shi from the Computer Science Department, a freshman, and are you also a student of Jiang University?”

The mini holiday still lay ahead.

Song Shi already discussed with his family that they would travel together during that holiday.

Yet when the National Day holiday actually arrived, he pushed open his front door.

He found the house empty.

No shadow of his mom or dad appeared anywhere.

Song Shi froze, then recovered and hurriedly took out his phone to call his grandfather.

When the call connected, he learned that they already went traveling ahead of him.

After he hung up, disappointment filled his heart.

The planned family trip fell through, and the mini holiday suddenly became dull.

After staying at home for several days and growing truly bored, Song Shi decided to wander along Food Street for some air.

His eyes drifted around, and when he happened to glance at Shen Qingxuan, his gaze was instantly caught by those long legs.

Looking only once showed respect for others.

Keeping his eyes fixed showed continuous respect.

Those slender, straight legs stood out in the crowd and kept Song Shi from looking away.

(This once again proved that a boy’s legs were thinner, longer, and more proportionate than a girl’s.)

Song Shi marvelled inwardly.

He estimated that height at around one meter eighty-five.

The long legs displayed smooth, straight lines, and their proportions felt perfect.

Tsk tsk tsk…

At that moment a thought flashed through his mind: these legs could entertain him for a whole year.

Song Shi usually held some niche hobbies, especially an obsession with attractive uniforms.

Every uniform, in his eyes, looked like a precious artwork that carried unique charm.

So at his first glance at Shen Qingxuan, he decided that the person before him was the one he waited for all his life.

Faced with the boy’s repeated questioning, Shen Qingxuan felt utterly speechless.

He silently griped in his heart, “What on earth do you see in me?”

“Would it not work if I changed?”

Because he could not open his mouth to speak, he could only nod frantically.

Seeing this, Song Shi’s smile grew even wider.

Realizing they attended the same school truly delighted him.

He wondered whether she was a senior or a junior student.

Various guesses floated through his mind.

Yet he never saw her on campus before.

Could it be that pretty girls usually walked through the sewers?

The more he thought about it, the more plausible it seemed.

After all, the Campus belle Jiang everyone mentioned was so beautiful and had such a great figure.

He still never saw her even once.

“May I ask whether you are a senior or a freshman?”

Song Shi asked again.

His eyes locked tightly on Shen Qingxuan, eagerly waiting for an answer.

Being asked so persistently almost made Shen Qingxuan explode.

He screamed inside, “Are you done yet?”

Song Shi waited for a long while.

He saw that Shen Qingxuan still kept silent.

So he lowered his head and began to ponder.

Doubt appeared in his eyes.

Could it be that the Little Sister before him was actually mute?

This thought flashed through his mind.

No wonder Little Sister’s face was so red earlier.

It must have been for this very reason.

Song Shi involuntarily thought of a streamer he often watched.

She looked extremely pretty.

Unfortunately, she owned a mouth that talked.

When he thought of this, Song Shi felt wild joy.

“Mutes are great!”

He loved mute brides the most.

Shen Qingxuan lowered his head and secretly clenched his fists.

At that moment he finally experienced the troubles Jiang Yubing usually faced.

That sensation of being pestered yet unable to escape truly drove him crazy.

In Song Shi’s eyes, this scene made him believe the other felt inferior because his secret was discovered.

He unconsciously recalled a moment when friends isolated him during childhood.

“I have felt inferior since childhood.”

Song Shi blurted out subconsciously.

“Cough, cough! I said it wrong.”

Realizing he spoke incorrectly, he quickly tried to remedy it.

“Little Sister, it’s okay, I won’t laugh at you. From now on I’ll protect you, all right?”

Screw your grandpa’s wife’s legs!

He could no longer bear it and saw no reason to endure.

Just as Shen Qingxuan prepared to unleash a torrent of curses.

Jiang Yubing walked out of the milk tea shop.

“Husband, let’s go.”

Jiang Yubing walked up to Shen Qingxuan and spoke.

In fact, she already saw the whole scene.

Watching the idiot husband flail about struck her as extremely cute.

So she simply stood a short distance away and enjoyed the show.

When Shen Qingxuan heard the familiar voice, joy surged in his heart.

Bingbing arrived on multicolored clouds to rescue him.

He had no time to think, grabbed Jiang Yubing’s hand, and hurried away.

The moment Song Shi saw Jiang Yubing appear, his eyes widened in shock.

“Isn’t that the Campus belle Jiang?”

Although he never saw her in person, plenty of photos of Jiang Yubing existed on the school forum.

Most of those photos were candid shots.

In the pictures she looked breathtakingly beautiful.

And now the real person stood before his eyes.

She possessed an even more indescribable charm.

Just now she called him “husband,” didn’t she?

Song Shi slapped his forehead and suddenly understood.

No wonder earlier rumors said Jiang Yubing was yuri; they were not groundless after all.

His curiosity ignited at once, and a rush of desire to uncover the truth flooded his heart.

He took out his phone, opened the video function, and furtively followed the pair.

Shen Qingxuan pulled Jiang Yubing out of Food Street before finally stopping.

He panted heavily, sweat covering his forehead.

“Bingbing, you are still laughing.”

Shen Qingxuan spoke in annoyance.

“Then should I cry instead?”

While speaking, Jiang Yubing pretended to wipe away tears.

Shen Qingxuan immediately burst into laughter at her antics.

He thought his wife was so childish.

She was already an adult, yet she still used that trick.

“What kind of smile is that? It looks awful!”

Jiang Yubing asked.

“A bitter smile.”

“That doesn’t look good at all; smile sweeter.”

After speaking, Jiang Yubing picked up the milk tea in her hand and took a sip.

Yet she did not swallow it; instead she held it all in her mouth.

Shen Qingxuan scratched his head with a puzzled look, “Wife, what kind of smile…”

He did not finish the sentence before his lips were sealed.

Shen Qingxuan could only emit muffled “mmm” sounds.

And Jiang Yubing seized the chance to pry open his…

They were a few hundred meters away.

Song Shi gnashed his teeth while watching the scene.

He put away the phone that was filming and swore silently.

“Just you wait, Jiang Yubing.”

She actually dared to steal his little sweetie.

“I will make sure you end up in ruins.”

After saying this, he left the place.

The moment he thought his little sweetie was no longer clean, his fragile heart hurt.

…

“So, did you learn it?”

Jiang Yubing asked with cheeks aglow.

Shen Qingxuan licked his lips twice and savored the taste.

It really tasted sweet.

He meant the milk tea.

He never drank milk tea this sweet and wanted another sip.

“Wife, what do you think this smile looks like?”

Wearing a forced expression, Shen Qingxuan squeezed out an awkward smile and spoke.

“What does it look like?”

Jiang Yubing looked puzzled.

She had no idea what medicine the idiot husband kept in his gourd.

“Doesn’t it look like a forced laugh?”

Jiang Yubing answered, “So what? Does it carry some other meaning?”

With eager eyes, Shen Qingxuan said, “Wife, my mouth feels a little dry, what should I do?”
