Afraid that she would feel wronged, he explained. "Sometimes I temporarily keep things from you to protect you, but is there a good reason for you to hide things from me?"

He had always been against that at normal times, let alone now when their relationship was more or less under a test. When such a huge storm suddenly came their way, it was likely to cause some misunderstandings. When one party made important decisions on their own, the other party was bound to feel hurt.

Thinking about how in a moment of desperation she forgot to consider the feelings of the most important person, Wan Jia was ashamed of herself. "I was wrong."

She looked obedient like a little student acknowledging her mistake and accepting punishment. Seeing her like this, his anger reduced in half.

"Can I tell you something?" she seized the chance before he left.

"Go ahead."

She swallowed hard. What she was about to say was indectly related to Qian Li. This matter was too important for him to be kept in the dark but would he be angrier?

"Well?" he probed when she remained silent for a while.

"I think I should take another scan." She carefully studied his face for any change in expression as she said slowly, "Qian Li said my uterus is thinner. I know you don't trust him yet…but it could be true, so we should confirm it." her voice grew thinner and thinner. Her last words were basically inaudible.

Lu Aotian was looking at her the whole time. Just when she started thinking he was going to ignore her, he answered with two letters. "Ok."

Wan Jia felt relieved. She asked about something else. "Is he alright?"

Lu Aotian knew who she was talking about. "He will be fine. He was taken to hospital after you pleaded on his behalf. Although you believe that the both of you are siblings, you should henceforth stay away from him as much as possible. There are many doctors in the world. People's hearts change, you know." Especially since he escaped from Lu Aotian's death grip today, it was not a guarantee that he wouldn't turn evil and want to hurt her for revenge. Not everyone was grateful.

"If that man is your father, there's a reason why your mother hid it from you." He actually remembered something Xia Rou said in the past. Paired with the fact that he couldn't find any connection between her and Qian Li when he investigated, and how Xia Rou had a complicated past, he could vaguely guess how Wan Jia came into existence (If Qian Ye was really her father). He didn't want to know more about it; it might make his wife and mother-in-law feel humiliated.

"Whatever it is, just keep your distance, mmh?"

"En."

He smiled in her direction. "Good girl. Is there anything else?"

She shook her head then quickly nodded. She looked exactly like a scared kitten.

"What is it?"

She got off the bed and stood before him but dared not to meet his gaze. Without raising her head, she tugged on his sleeve. "Husband, can we not fight anymore?" she felt like she had lost half her life these few days.

The result of their fight wasn't something desirable. For the past one week, all they did was evade each other and hurt each other's feelings. If they fought any longer, she was afraid Little Jia would be influenced negatively. She was tired of it and she was sure that so was he.

Lu Aotian used his slender fingers to hold her chin up so she could look at him. "Let's not ever fight again, my wife."

"Yes."

Without a warning, hot kisses landed on her lips. She didn't have time to react before she felt her body floating in the air.

Lu Aotian laid her on the bed and followed her body down, looking into her eyes. "Are you only going to ask for forgiveness using your tongue?"

When she saw the look of desire in his eyes, Wan Jia blushed. Her man was angry a minute ago. Just like a flick of a switch, he was already pressing her under him and flirting with her? How fast.

He lowered his head and nibbled on her ear. "I want you."

Hearing that deep sexy voice, Wan Jia felt a flame rise under her skin. She hugged his neck and bit on his lips gently then pried them open using her tongue.

The sun was setting, those orange rays of light finding their way into the bedroom and falling on the pair of figures entangled on the bed.

Their clothes were strewn carelessly on the floor as their hands hungrily caressed each other's body. Before they reached the final stage, Wan Jia flipped him and switched positions.

Then she answered the question he asked a while ago. "I will literally use my tongue."

She held his shaft and licked its tip, gave him a seductive look and put it in her mouth. She literally apologized with her tongue as she twirled it on his manhood, driving all his demons crazy.

Although they had been together for such a long time, she still had a hint of shyness. But today she was direct and provocative, making him lose control. He pulled her down and parted her fair legs. With a hard thrust, he entered her body, making her uncontrollably let out a moan of pleasure.
