Chapter 55 I Am Proud of My Silliness
Since she left the coffee shop at noon, Chen Kexin had been absent-minded. When she learned how to cook in the afternoon, she kept mixing the ingredients up. Lan Xiao asked her what was going on, but she did not say anything.

Then when she reached home, she still looked listless.

At night, when making love with her husband, she suddenly said in an abstracted tone, “Dear, do you know whether Keren really likes Lan Xiao?”

Wang Weixi was depressed. In his eyes, lovemaking was the most sacred thing in this world, so they had to immerse themselves in it, but his wife actually thought about the others, which upset him.

“Ah!” Chen Kexin let out a painful cry.

She lowered her head. Seeing Wang Weixi’s dark expression, she immediately stuck out her tongue and said, “Sorry, dear. I… I…”

Wang Weixi ignored her response and lashed against her body with more strength as if he was venting his rage on her.

Chen Kexin chuckled. Even though she was panting and sweating, she begged for his mercy. “I… Hum… I’m sorry… Dear…”

…

The next day, it was time to test what she had learned. Wang Weixi got up early, dressed himself and prepared clothes for Chen Kexin before he whispered in her ears gently. “Sweetheart, wake up. We have to go to the party today. Come and get dressed.”

Chen Kexin stretched and felt aches in her muscles. She grumbled with her eyes closed, “Dear, you’re to blame. My body is painful. Nah, I have to sleep for a while.” Then she turned her back toward her husband.

Wang Weixi muttered with dissatisfaction, “Why were you not serious on bed?”

Chen Kexin gave no response, sleeping soundly.

Wang Weixi shook his head helplessly, looked at the time and tenderly patted his wife’s shoulder, saying, “Honey, be sure to get up in a while. I’ll go to fix you breakfast.”

Chen Kexin limply responded with “Oh” and fell asleep again.

Wang Weixi stared at his wife and covered her with the quilt before he quietly walked out.

While he was preparing breakfast, his mind was filled with what Chen Kexin said last night.

He was focusing on lovemaking at that time, so he did not answer Chen Kexin’s question. But now he wondered why she suddenly posed such a question. “What had happened between Lan Xiao and Chen Keren since I left? Had they quarreled because of Yi Duanfang?”

At thought of Yi Duanfang, he was stuck in a foul mood. “What happened to him yesterday? No matter how I asked him, he remained tight-lipped and only kept cursing Chen Keren “Evil Girl” or “Bastard”, as if he were a little woman who had been harassed by someone.” Wang Weixi even doubted whether his sister-in-law raped Yi Duanfang.

If that was true, he was pleased for them, because he was more and more convinced that Yi Duanfang, an inborn natural newhalf and Chen Keren, an inborn beauty, were a perfect match. If they got married, they would help purify the air and eliminate disasters for this world.

Time passed by unconsciously. The breakfast was ready. Hearing that the bedroom remained quiet, Wang Weixi walked in with resignation, but found his wife was not on the bed.

“Kexin, dear, you got up?” Wang Weixi spoke in a soft voice.

Chen Kexin was powering her face as she walked out of the washroom. At sight of her husband, she huffed, “Bastard, you hurt me yesterday.”

Wang Weixi guiltily stuck out his tongue and said awkwardly, “That’s blamed on you. You’re distracted!”

Chen Kexin rolled her eyes angrily before she responded in a reproachful tone, “Was I distracted for a while? You’re so mean!”

Wang Weixi knew that she was a bit mad at him, so he immediately rushed to embrace her. Seeing Chen Kexin avoid his hug by turning around, Wang Weixi was not angry about it. He held her from behind and said with a chuckle, “My good wife, it’s my fault. I’m sorry. Forgive me.”

Chen Kexin murmured, “Bad boy!”

Knowing that her anger subsided, Wang Weixi immediately played up to her and said, “Let’s have breakfast, and I’ve prepared it for you.”

Chen Kexin nodded and responded, “I have to fix my face. You go first.”

“OK, I’ll wait for you.” Wang Weixi kissed her on the cheek and went to the kitchen in a good mood.

Chen Kexin quickly put on make-up. Now she looked stunning in a white lace dress, which made men’s blood boil.

As she stepped into the kitchen, Wang Weixi fixed his eyes on her and acclaimed, “How beautiful. Come and hug me.”

Chen Kexin responded with a smile, “You’re so frivolous.” Then she sat down and started her breakfast time.

“Dear, we only need to prepare several dishes in Sister Jiang’s house. Don’t worry. Sister Jiang and her friends treat me like a biological brother. They’re nice and must treat you well,” Wang Weixi explained for he was afraid that Chen Kexin would consider this party as “terrible” as her family party.

Chen Kexin nodded, without any worry revealed on her face, “I see. Tee-hee, but dear, how many dishes do I need to do?”

Wang Weixi adjusted his spectacles and knitted his eyebrows, saying, “At least… a dozen dishes.”

Bang. Chen Kexin was so flabbergasted that her chopsticks fell on the table.

Wang Weixi stared at Chen Kexin and thought for a while before he spoke. “Hrm… I think 7 or 8 dishes will do… I guess.”

Chen Kexin curled her lips and replied with a depressed look. “But, honey, I can only do six dishes and I’m not good at controlling the duration and degree of heating…”

Wang Weixi stared at her in surprise and said, “Have you learned how to cook for five days?” “Are you kidding me? If even a silly person has learned cooking for five days, he would know how to make at least 20 dishes. Furthermore, you can totally infer other things from cooking.”

Wang Weixi’s disbelief was a severe blow to Chen Kexin.

She muttered, “I’m not smart. Don’t you know?” It seemed reasonable that she had not learned it well.

Wang Weixi’s cold sweat dripped down and he said, “Six… Well, that’s OK. We can also make some cold dishes.” He finally knew what it was called “The broken pot was not afraid of being smashed.”

Chen Kexin was very depressed to see his sad look and what depressed her most was that she had no idea what were cold dishes.

Seeing Chen Kexin pitiful expression, Wang Weixi comforted her and said, “Let me teach you how to make cold dishes. It’s easy.”

Chen Kexin felt relieved.

Then after breakfast, they drove to the supermarket and picked up some ingredients before they went to Sister Jiang’s house.

“Dear, why did you ask me such a question last night?” Wang Weixi could not help but ask in the car.

Chen Kexin looked out of the window in a daze. She was actually so nervous that she did not hear what Wang Weixi said, although she was unwilling to admit it.

Wang Weixi repeated. Chen Kexin turned her face and curiously stared at Wang Weixi. A memory of yesterday meeting sprung to her mind. She bit her lip and replied, “Nothing.”

Wang Weixi realized that she was reluctant to speak out, so he did not push her to do so and continued driving in silence.
