“How are you feeling… Any discomfort?”

When he asked this question, she could hear the embarrassment in his voice.

Bai Xiao felt a sweetness in her heart, “Aside from sore feet, I’m fine!” The person deliberately distorting the truth was this woman.

An Zhiyuan suddenly changed the subject, “Xiaoxiao, don’t you have any expectations for this wedding? I want to give you the wedding you desire, at least to let me know your wishes.” He was guilty that he had not paid enough attention to his woman, and this wedding seemed like a task being completed rather than being arranged entirely for the two of them; it felt more like fulfilling a duty.

It was all for the elders at home, for relatives and friends, this feeling was particularly uncomfortable for him, and he was more worried that it might wrong his wife.

“Second brother…”

“What did you just call me?” An Zhiyuan stopped what he was doing with his hands.

Bai Xiao turned her head coyly, “Don’t stop, it’s so comfortable, I didn’t expect you to have such good skills. Come clean, who did you practice on?”

An Zhiyuan let out a short chuckle, “In this lifetime, I’ve only practiced on you, and I’ve already fallen into your hands, how would I dare to have a wandering eye?”

Bai Xiao was smug, her heart brimming with sweetness, after all, feeling unique was indeed very pleasurable.

“If you dare to stray, just try!”

“What did you just call me?”

The way An Zhiyuan was called ‘second brother’ made him feel a tumult of emotions.

Bai Xiao paused for a moment, “Isn’t it just ‘second brother’? Calling you An Zhiyuan doesn’t feel close. After all, we are legally married and always calling each other by full names. Others might think we are colleagues. If I call you Ayuan like your parents and brother, it feels the same, lacking novelty. So I might as well just call you ‘second brother’; don’t you like it?”

“I like it, as long as you’re the one calling, I like whatever you call me.”

“Such a smooth talker! The voices downstairs are so loud, are your brother and your aunt having a fight right now?”

She could see that this older brother was always finding fault with his stepmother.

The question was, as a man in his late twenties, wasn’t he tired of this? Wouldn’t it be fundamental to focus on expanding his business instead?

It wasn’t an ancient court drama; what sense did it make for a grown man to constantly bicker with women?

“It’s nothing, my older brother is actually a very broad-minded person, but all his pettiness and narrow-mindedness only explode when faced with Wei Shufen.” Maybe it was because his brother’s feelings towards Wei Shufen were not just dislike, but a deep-seated hatred.

“What atrocious thing did your stepmother do to your brother that he’s been unable to forget for so many years? I see that your stepmother treats your younger brother rather well, she seems to be a smart person. How could she have done something so obvious that anyone could see?” Bai Xiao pushed her bowl to the side after eating her fill.

An Zhiyuan pulled her to sit on the bed and continued the task at hand.

“My stepmother actually had a child once. Not long after she married my father, they had their own child. Perhaps because of this, Wei Shufen started to harbored different thoughts. Besides, my older brother was very resistant to Wei Shufen back then. Being the eldest, he probably felt threatened, suspecting she would become a stumbling block in the future, so she took action. Unfortunately, heaven had its retribution; it fell upon my unborn brother or sister because of that incident. Her child was lost, and she became unable to have children ever again. That was the punishment from heaven.

From then on, she directed all her maternal love onto my younger brother, which is why he is the closest to her in this household,” An Zhiyuan explained.

Now that the two of them were a married couple, some things still had to be said.
