With nothing left for him to do, he got ready to head home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Jiaojiao held up a large piece of pork, intending to give it to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen JianShe refused outright!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister-in-law, aren’t you two hosting a banquet soon? Save this wild boar for the guests!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was indeed a lot of wild boar meat, probably just enough for a banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen JianShe’s words were casual, but Gu Jiaojiao froze for a moment before turning her head to look at Leng Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Yuan’s expression was placid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The twenty-fourth of this month.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Jiaojiao sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’So, the banquet is a real thing, and I was completely clueless.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Just great.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Jiaojiao took a deep breath and put the pork away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can go now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen JianShe: ...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Did I just say the wrong thing?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But seeing Gu Jiaojiao’s radiant smile, it looked like everything was fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The big goof scratched his head, then waved enthusiastically at the couple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Leng, Sister-in-law, no need to see me out! I can get back on my own.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And with that, he left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「In the courtyard.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Yuan really wanted to drag the man back and beat him up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had wanted to give his wife a surprise, but now Chen JianShe had blown his cover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Jiaojiao, however, had calmly locked the main gate. She turned back, her eyes fixing on Leng Yuan, her smile not quite reaching her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My dearest husband, don’t you think you should explain to your darling wife just what Chen JianShe meant by that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing her string those ’dears’ together was enough to send Leng Yuan’s head spinning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cleared his throat, his tone softening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s not that I didn’t want to tell you. I was planning it as a surprise.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Jiaojiao didn’t feel like this was much of a surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"More of a shock, you mean.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She pictured it: a crowd of people suddenly showing up for the banquet, and her, completely clueless and grinning foolishly. She’d probably die of social embarrassment right then and there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just the thought of it made her skin crawl!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Yuan had never planned a surprise for anyone before. This was his first time, and the idea had even come from Xu Chongshan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d trusted him on the grounds that Xu Chongshan had a wife and a baby on the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But looking at his wife’s expression now, she didn’t seem happy at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He fell into thought for a moment. The image of his wife in her wedding dress, a lonely look in her eyes, surfaced in his mind, and his heart couldn’t help but ache for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our wedding was during the Qiushou, so we never had time to host a proper banquet. Now that we’re both free, I thought we could find a time to treat everyone to a meal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the village, you weren’t considered truly married until you’d hosted the wedding banquet; just getting the certificate didn’t count.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Things had been hectic before, and their getting together had been rather sudden, so he hadn’t been prepared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lately, he had been going up the mountain every day and bringing back plenty of meat, which was just about enough for the banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Jiaojiao knew her husband meant well, but she just couldn’t bring herself to be happy about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what about the wedding dress?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just because she’d worn that dress one time, this man had practically ravaged her without restraint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had gotten dirty in the process, and afterward, she could only give it a quick wash. But the whole dress was a wrinkled, ravaged mess, completely unwearable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’A perfectly good dress, ruined by this man.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You mangled that dress! How am I supposed to wear it now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was real silk; it couldn’t be pulled or tugged. But this man had shown it no mercy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stared down by his wife’s furious gaze, Leng Yuan was also reminded of their wild night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For once, he felt a flicker of shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He averted his gaze, pondered for a moment, and then spoke in a low voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jiaojiao, I’ll get the dress sorted out. Can you wear it again tonight?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’The thought of his little woman in her wedding dress made him feel like the person before him belonged to him, inside and out.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He could have his way with her as he pleased.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’The sight of her, brought to tears by his teasing...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It was breathtakingly beautiful. He was addicted, and he longed to see it again.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Jiaojiao: ...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Ha!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This damn man is just shameless.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He just wore me out yesterday, and he already wants more tonight!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’In his dreams.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let me tell you, don’t even think about it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Yuan said nothing, simply smiling with the confidence of a man who had already won.\u003C\u002Fp>",828,"2026-06-05T18:11:09.759Z",1,"novelbin.me","8bf581490ef673a74b8530d8eca6d62b1028b2fc16fa6fe7ee9c727b350a281e","the-delicate-darling-with-her-rough-man-chapter-207","the-delicate-darling-with-her-rough-man-chapter-205",407,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-delicate-darling-with-her-rough-man-cover.jpg"]
