Chapter 226

"Wife, are you done washing up?"

Feeling that the time spent inside was a bit long, Li Heng was terrified that something might have happened and couldn't help but call out from the doorway outside.

"Wait a moment."

Xiao Han responded, and it was about 5 minutes later before she came out.

At this moment, she was still carrying a trash basket in her hand.

Li Heng reached out to take it, "Oh, you're so diligent the first time you've come to your man's home; get some more rest, let me do it."

Xiao Han laughed happily: "No need, I still want to fight for the top spot, give me a chance to show off."

As their eyes met, Li Heng muttered a sentence: "Yin and yang weirdness."

Xiao Han just smiled at him, bypassed him, and went outside to dump the trash.

Li Heng tilted his head to watch her back for a while, then later took his change of clothes and entered the shower room. When he appeared in the living room again, that young lady was swinging on the swing in the attic.

He was stunned for a moment, his heart skipped a beat, damn it! A hundred secrets and one slip!

The swing was made by Comrade Mai Sui herself, the style was generally quite plain and indistinguishable, but the small decorations on it, especially the purple wind chime hanging at the end...

Li Heng followed her up to the attic, wiping his hair with a dry towel while asking: "Which room are you sleeping in tonight?"

Xiao Han held the swing with both hands, swaying gently back and forth, "The guest follows the host's convenience, this young lady isn't picky, I'll sleep in whichever room Mr. Li arranges."

Li Heng said: "Then you sleep in the master bedroom, it's more spacious, and at night you can look at the starry sky outside through the window."

Xiao Han had a shallow little dimple, "You're giving the master bedroom to me, I'd be so embarrassed."

Li Heng said: "I'm a man, it's only right."

Thinking of the hair in the shower room, Xiao Han tentatively asked: "Then where are you sleeping?"

Li Heng glanced at her, "Naturally, also in the master bedroom."

"Ah?"

Xiao Han immediately stopped swinging and stood up.

"Ah what ah?"

Li Heng said with a righteous look: "I've already called you 'wife' so many times, what's wrong with sleeping in the same room as you? Making a fuss over nothing."

Xiao Han's whole body stiffened, standing foolishly on the spot, not daring to make a sound.

Seeing this, he added a blow: "Besides, today you delivered yourself to my door, could I be stupid enough to miss such a once-in-a-thousand-years good opportunity?"

Xiao Han retreated a step without a trace, then retreated another step, lowered her head to stare at her toes and pondered for a moment, finally gave him a sweet smile, and slipped into the master bedroom.

Then, only the master bedroom door was seen closing with a "bang," neither light nor loud.

Hmm? Did this young lady really enter the master bedroom?

Based on the understanding of her from past and present lives, his own wife is not the type to be so unreserved, unless...

Unless there is a reason she doesn't want to go to the second bedroom.

Li Heng stared at the swing in silence, where exactly did the problem lie?

Is it the swing?

Or something else?

Just as he was pondering where the flaw was in the attic, the voice of the fake Daoist suddenly came from downstairs.

"Li Heng! Mai Sui! Come down for a late-night snack, come down to eat Japanese cuisine, today I got bluefin tuna from a friend..."

When Old Fu was rambling and showing off various precious seafood in the alley below, Li Heng's face turned black.

Alright, this time it's truly alright!

There's no need to doubt whether to doubt or not, the bottom line has been poked through directly.

Damn it, before when he passed by the No. 24 small building, he had shouted "Old Fu" several times inside, the purpose was to let the fake Daoist see that he had brought Xiao Han back, so he wouldn't make trouble for him later.

Damn it! Guarded against everything, but just didn't guard against this.

Hearing the shouting downstairs, the bedroom window opened, and Xiao Han poked her head out.

Seeing movement upstairs, the fake Daoist looked up and waved: "Come, come, come! Mai Sui, come down to eat..."

Halfway through his words, the voice stopped abruptly, and he looked at the strange face on the window in a daze.

After a long while, the recovered fake Daoist adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and said happily:

"You must be Li Heng's partner, hurry and call that guy down to eat a late-night snack."

Actually, Fu Yanjie didn't know if Xiao Han was Li Heng's partner either, but since the other party appeared in Li Heng's master bedroom so late, he just rounded it off like this; even if he got it wrong, it didn't matter, at most it would be a misunderstanding.

Li Heng felt like dying, and responded from the attic: "Old Fu, we'll be down right away."

"Eh, hurry up, you two are the only ones left." Old Fu muttered a sentence and fled back to the No. 24 small building with a dejected face.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

"Knock, knock, knock!"

After two knocks on the door, the master bedroom door opened from the inside, revealing a face that was half-smiling.

Facing each other, Li Heng leaned against the door frame and asked: "Wife, do you need an explanation?"

"No need." Xiao Han stepped out of the master bedroom with a pursed smile and walked downstairs.

Li Heng followed behind: "When did you guess it?"

Hearing this, Xiao Han stopped her steps, her eyebrows curved as she asked: "Guess? So, Mr. Li wanted to hide the truth?"

Li Heng spread his hands: "What truth? Everyone is good friends, Mai Sui and Sun Man occasionally come over for dinner, if they drink a bit of wine and it's too late, they just stay here for the night."

Xiao Han looked into his eyes, her smile deepening.

Li Heng felt his scalp tingle from being watched, and said speechlessly: "Mai Sui has indeed stayed a few more nights recently, mainly because Yu Laoshi next door is afraid of sleeping alone..."

He understood, it was still Old Fu who ruined things, sigh.

The fake Daoist's way of calling people just now was simply treating Mai Sui as the hostess here; otherwise, why would he shout "Li Heng, Mai Sui" so naturally so late at night?

From this, it is not difficult to infer that Mai Sui spends the night here quite often.

After hearing his explanation, Xiao Han's small crescent eyes almost narrowed into crescents, she didn't say anything, and walked downstairs again.

Arriving at the No. 24 small building, she was a bit surprised to actually see a strange woman.

Uh, not exactly strange, she had encountered Old Fu and this female teacher taking a walk at the alley entrance a while ago.

Seeing the two, Old Fu and the female teacher looked over together.

Li Heng reached out and pulled Xiao Han over, formally introducing: "Old Fu, this is Xiao Han, my wife who hasn't entered the door yet."

The phrase "wife who hasn't entered the door yet" was of a much higher grade than girlfriend or partner; Old Fu hurriedly poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xiao Han, apologizing: "A slip of the tongue just now, Mo Han said this kid had a female classmate come to his house, I thought it was Mai Sui, so hey! This guy usually doesn't like to associate with girls, it's just that Mai Sui and Sun Man come relatively more often, so..."

As he spoke, facing such a beautiful girl as Xiao Han, Old Fu himself didn't know what to say, always feeling that whatever he said was useless; the girl was smiling, making him speechless for a moment.

Finally, Old Fu simply said: "Welcome, welcome, classmate Xiao Han."

Xiao Han took the tea and said thank you.

The female teacher's name was Chen Mohan. It was the same surname Chen as Chen Siya; if the latter knew about this situation, what would happen? Li Heng thought with a perverse sense of humor.

There really was a lot of precious seafood, not only bluefin tuna, but also large yellow croaker and large lobster, etc., and even 10 or so salmon.

Li Heng checked it and asked: "Where did you get this?"

Old Fu solved his confusion: "Didn't I encounter a water monkey last week? I was always restless at night, didn't dare to sleep, feeling like that ghost thing was staring at me all the time, I was almost driven into a mental illness, so I went to a friend's house by the sea, his family has been fishermen for generations, often dealing with such things, they have experience, I asked him for advice, and by the way, got some good food to bring over."

Li Heng asked: "Then is there a solution?"

Old Fu pointed his finger at the doors and windows, "Asked for some talismans, not sure how effective they are yet? Tomorrow I'll perform another ritual, to lure the enemy into the trap."

Li Heng looked around, talismans were pasted everywhere, but he didn't see anything special, and said: "You haven't been home for a week, Yu Laoshi has been experiencing ghost oppression every night, she doesn't even dare to sleep in her own home."

Old Fu said with a serious expression: "I will handle this matter well."

Li Heng nodded, turned to Xiao Han, his eyes seemed to be saying: You heard it, I've kept myself pure for you.

Xiao Han acted as if she didn't see it, and continued to get familiar and chat with Chen Mohan.

Catching the opportunity to be alone, Old Fu asked: "Did I cause you trouble today?"

Li Heng said unpleasantly: "Good to know, what the hell are you ghost-shouting for so late at night."

Old Fu grinned happily: "How would I know you changed women tonight, and don't say, Mai Sui is quite a virtuous girl, both Yu Laoshi and I are used to her staying at your house."

Li Heng didn't make a sound after hearing it; whether Mai Sui is good or not, any man can feel it, right? But he is a good man, isn't he? A good man.

Damn! Once some doubting thoughts are planted, they will take root and sprout; he really wanted to press Old Fu next to him to death with one finger.
