His and Her Forever Love - Chapter 58
Chapter 58: Act Like Any Wife Would
Fortunately, she was smart enough to, on her way back to the lounge, bring a bottle of mineral water as evidence, proving that she had indeed gone out to look for a drink of water; that she certainly had not seized the opportunity to sneak out to watch the launch!
…
In the meantime, Sally was simply disregarded by Jiang Beihan and left on the sideline while her expression turned even more furious.
Sending Song Wenxin a sharp glance, she did not say another word; instead, angrily gritting her teeth, she scuttled away, having failed miserably.
…
With Sally gone, Song Wenxin and Jiang Beihan were the only two people left in the room.
Jiang Beihan continued to look annoyed and appeared to be in a very bad mood.
Stealing a glance at him, Song Wenxin approached the sofa carefully, intending to sit down.
“Are you not planning to give me an explanation?” Jiang Beihan’s voice, filled with displeasure, sounded suddenly.
Freezing in her action to sit down on the sofa, Song Wenxin gave a hollow laugh and then replied, “Didn’t I just explain?”
She thought that she had already given him an explanation. So did he not believe her?
With an icy expression, Jiang Beihan gave her a quick glance and asked, “What did you mean by acting like that earlier?”
“Huh, what?” Song Wenxin was stunned and, for a moment, did not get what he was referring to.
“Just now, why did you have to leave the room?” Jiang Beihan asked patiently, although the tone of his question emanated anger.
Having heard him ask his question in that way, Song Wenxin finally understood what he had been referring to.
Earlier on, she had entered the room to witness him and Sally in a compromising, intimate position, and, inadvertently assuming that she was intruding on them, she had intended to walk away and leave them alone.
“I-I thought you were…” Song Wenxin gritted her teeth and hesitated, stuttering over her words.
Anybody who had walked in on the scene at that moment would have come to the same conclusion—that they were in the midst of doing something.
“You thought we were what?” Jiang Beihan continued to ask, frowning.
“Nothing… I read too much into it.” Song Wenxin touched her nose gently and laughed sheepishly.
He had such a good relationship with Shangguan and would definitely not do anything to betray him.
Moreover, he did not even like women.
Seeing Song Wenxin looking so cute when she was laughing sheepishly, Jiang Beihan felt most of the anger in him subsiding uncontrollably.
“Next time, what would you do if something like this happens again?” he asked suddenly as he leaned his body back slightly, resting it against the sofa.
Song Wenxin stood primly at attention by his side, looking very much like a student who was being reprimanded by her teacher.
“Next time…” Now, this question of his posed a challenge for her.
What he had meant was that next time, if she happened to catch him being intimate with another woman, what action should she take?
But she had not even thought about this question.
Feeling clueless, she looked at Jiang Beihan, trying to scrutinize his expression.
“If there is a next time, I… will definitely not leave the room,” she responded with a sheepish smile after hesitating briefly.
Earlier, he had been unhappy because she had turned to walk away, leaving him and Sally alone in that room.
“Is that all?” Jiang Beihan asked, his dark eyes narrowed, not appearing too satisfied with her response.
“If that’s not it, then what else could I do?” Song Wenxin responded in exasperation.
Raising his eyebrows, Jiang Beihan asked suddenly, “Shouldn’t you, as my wife, behave as any wife would?”
For example, get jealous!
…
Do what a wife should do?
