Ch. 253 Taking Good Care of Your Wife

He Sanlang felt a thin thread of anxiety needle its way into his heart, and just like that, the heat in his belly instantly cooled. He subconsciously hugged the warm, soft woman in his arms tighter, as that seemed to be the only way he could reassure himself.

Urihan and her sons were fine. After eating some food and resting for the whole night in a warm pen, their spirits were better than ever.

By the time Chu Lian woke up again, she realised that it was already the afternoon of the next day.

She curled up a little and rubbed at her sleepy eyes. The natural furnace that had been keeping her warm was already gone. In the chill left by its absence, her body shivered into wakefulness.

Just as Chu Lian was about to sit up and call for someone, the curtain covering the entrance shifted. He Changdi used only one arm to push himself into the warm pen.

The first thing he did was set a little indigo package off to one side. When he looked up and accidentally met her gaze, He Changdi immediately looked away.

Chu Lian noticed that his expression seemed a little weird. Even the tips of his ears were slightly red. Her brows drew together in confusion and she looked downwards at herself. It was then that all was made clear, and her own face flushed red.

It seemed her inner clothes had fallen loose in her sleep. Since the string holding the two front panels of her top together had been broken by a certain someone, her clothes were wide open, showing the light yellow halter top she wore inside. However, the halter top had also shifted in her sleep and was now exposing a great amount of her fair skin. There were obvious red marks all over her chest, the remaining evidence of He Sanlang's 'indulgence' last night.

Chu Lian glared at him and quickly pulled her top closed. She angrily barked, "Turn around!"

This time, He Sanlang was strangely obedient. He turned around without any retort. Once Chu Lian was sure that he couldn't see her, she quickly adjusted her own clothes.

However, when she found out that the tie keeping her top closed had been broken, she could no longer suppress her vexation and cried, "He Changdi, this is all your fault!"

He Sanlang had already forgotten about that small detail. When his wife started shouting at him out of the blue, he felt rather aggrieved.

He pressed his lips together, but he still kept his back to her just like she ordered.

"Can I turn back now?"

"Turn back here!" Chu Lian fumed.

When He Changdi turned around and looked at Chu Lian, he finally understood what she was angry about.

A furious blush flared to life on his cheeks as he recalled exactly how he had broken that cloth string last night. His right hand twitched in remembrance as well. Even the cool and collected He Sanlang couldn't quite summon up the courage to speak in the face of his wife's admonishment.

"Do you have any clothes? Get me some."

She could only make do by holding her inner clothes closed for now. The fox fur cloak she had been wearing yesterday was now completely covered in horse blood and was stinking to high heaven. She couldn't put that on anymore.

He Changdi coughed awkwardly and reached out towards a small cabinet built into the wall of the warm pen. He dug around in it and found a set of clothes.

"We don't have any female clothing here; you'll have to make do with mine first."

This was the snowboat that He Changdi had taken to Su City, so there were a few sets of his clothes in here.
