The next morning.

Fu Tingyuan waking up disturbed Luo Nanchu from her slumber.

Under her covers, she watched the man stand up and dress by the bed.

Fu Tingyuan merely donned a simple white shirt, but it looked extremely elegant and stylish on him.

She cocked her head, surveyed him, and commented, “Mr. Fu is a feast for the eyes.”

Fu Tingyuan shot her a look and noticed a weariness in her expression. She had been tossed about quite violently by him last night.

“It seems you haven’t received enough punishment last night.” His voice was indifferent.

Luo Nanchu withdrew the teasing smile on her face and burrowed into the covers.

After a moment of thought, indignation washed over her, and she deliberately mocked, “Mr. Fu is so inconsiderate in bed that it is no wonder that Ms. Bai kicked you out.”

Fu Tingyuan picked up his suit and shot her a rather sarcastic look before leaving.

Luo Nanchu pursed her lips as she looked at his silhouette. Upon recalling the gaze in Fu Tingyuan’s eyes as he left, she smacked herself on the forehead.

She had been so silly.

How could Fu Tingyuan not be cautious when he was being intimate with Bai Zhiyan? Being cautious with her was a given. He was surely considerate of her feelings and would never treat her so roughly.

Bai Zhiyan was his heartfelt love, the one he truly doted on. How could Luo Nanchu have compared herself to Bai Zhiyan? Wasn’t that simply inviting humiliation upon herself?

No wonder Fu Tingyuan sneered at her before he left.

…

Luo Nanchu sat cross-legged on the bed and complained to Qin Su about Fu Tingyuan’s frustrating skills in bed, as per usual.

The King Has Ordered Me to Patrol the Mountain: [So what if a man’s size and girth are adequate? It’s half-useless when he lacks technique.]

I’m a Tiny Little Bird: [Chuchu, I just heard some news.]

Luo Nanchu was startled by the words on the screen.

The King Has Ordered Me to Patrol the Mountain: [What news?]

I’m a Tiny Little Bird: [Chuchu, Ah Lie is about to return.]

I’m a Tiny Little Bird: [Help me discourage him from fighting with Yin Mobei.]

I’m a Tiny Little Bird: [He’s no match for him.]

Nanchu read and reread these three lines. Calming her expression, she placed her fingers on the keyboard and pursed her lips slightly.

The King Has Ordered Me to Patrol the Mountain: [When will he be back?]

I’m a Tiny Little Bird: [I don’t know. I overheard him talking about this on a call while I was outside his study.]

“Him” referred to Yin Mobei.

Luo Nanchu breathed in deeply and raised a hand to rub her glabella as a wave of painful helplessness brimmed in her heart.

The King Has Ordered Me to Patrol the Mountain: [I can’t help you, Susu. I can’t meet him while I’m with Fu Tingyuan.]

I’m a Tiny Little Bird: [I know, Chuchu. I’m not blaming you. I just thought that you might have a higher chance of meeting him than I would… You have to advise him if you ever bump into him. After all…]

The King Has Ordered Me to Patrol the Mountain: [… I understand.]

…

After her conversation with Qin Su, Luo Nanchu was unable to calm down.

She closed her laptop and rubbed her temples vigorously.

Wave after wave of pain crashed against her consciousness.

Qin Su was in Yin Mobei’s hands. He was a fierce and peremptory man and would never let them meet.

How could she herself advise him then?

She didn’t even know if she could meet him.

He should not have come back since Yin Mobei would never let him off.

Luo Nanchu’s heart sank deeper as this thought swirled in her mind.

…

For the next few days, Fu Tingyuan came back to the villa daily to intimately engage with her.

In the past, she used to think that this man was an extreme ascetic.

Her opinion had changed now—Fu Tingyuan was a sex demon.

Thus, he must have had some other woman outside fulfill his needs when he refused to let her touch him in the past.

According to her assessment of his needs over the past few days, Fu Tingyuan must have had many assignations with Bai Zhiyan during the course of their three-year marriage.
