My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Crazy Beauty
Chapter 313 Affection...

Chapter 313: Chapter 313 Affection...

Gu Beihuai never expected that the first thing Tang Chuxia would ask when they were alone was about this.

He even experienced a moment of brain freeze and didn’t immediately react.

After a while, he asked, "What did you say?"

Tang Chuxia poked his Adam’s apple, "What? You’re so protective of that woman?"

Gu Beihuai ground his teeth, "What woman am I protecting? Isn’t having you enough trouble?"

Tang Chuxia exclaimed and looked at Gu Beihuai with a very dangerous gaze.

Gu Beihuai hurriedly held onto Tang Chuxia’s hands and pulled her into his arms, "I was wrong, I misspoke. You’re not troublesome; I’m the one who’s troublesome. Actually, I don’t have any woman, and that fragrance isn’t a woman’s!"

Tang Chuxia didn’t react much, "If it’s not a woman’s, could it be a man’s? But why would a man wear such sweet perfume?"

That was indeed a very good question.

Gu Beihuai also wanted to know why that scoundrel of a man would wear such sweet perfume, causing him to be suspected.

"Maybe he has a problem with his head?"

This explanation didn’t satisfy Tang Chuxia, but she couldn’t refute it at the moment.

Seeing that Tang Chuxia might have more questions, Gu Beihuai kissed her earlobe, "Wife, it’s been a week since we got married!"

Tang Chuxia: "So what?"

Does a week have some special meaning?

Is it like the tradition of the seventh day after death applying to marriage too?

That shouldn’t be!

She couldn’t recall such a custom existing. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Or perhaps people here have it?

Tang Chuxia looked at Gu Beihuai with her confused big eyes.

Gu Beihuai was feeling restless under her gaze.

With his wife in his arms, freshly out of the shower, and being the little demon she was, tempting him, who could resist?

Gu Beihuai was just about to kiss Tang Chuxia on the mouth, to at least discuss life matters with his wife.

In the end, the kiss didn’t land on Tang Chuxia’s lips but on the pillow because the door was suddenly pushed open, and Tang Chuxia reflexively pushed Gu Beihuai away.

Gu Beihuai was so angry he was about to curse, but then he saw Madam Tang and Mrs. Gu burst in. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

The two mothers were particularly excited and rushed toward Tang Chuxia as soon as they entered.

Madam Tang immediately hugged Tang Chuxia, inspecting her from head to toe.

Mrs. Gu didn’t say a word and just grabbed Gu Beihuai’s ear, yelling at him.

"Gu Beihuai, you’ve done a great job, haven’t you? I told you to take good care of Xiaxia, and this is how you do it? It’s only been seven days since the wedding, and Xiaxia is already in the hospital?"

The more Mrs. Gu spoke, the angrier she got. Seeing how much weight Tang Chuxia had lost made her even more furious, and she twisted Gu Beihuai’s ear as she spoke.

Gu Beihuai’s face was all twisted out of shape.

It hurt!

Father Tang extended his hand to intervene but was stopped by Father Gu.

"Don’t interfere, this kid needs some discipline. If he can’t even protect his wife, he deserves to be punished!" Father Gu declared righteously.

Father Tang felt an imaginary pain in his ear.

That was too harsh, wasn’t it?

It wasn’t necessary, really!

Besides, they’d heard along the way what happened, and it wasn’t entirely Gu Beihuai’s fault.

The blame should fall on his third son.

Father Tang wanted to deal with his three sons but seeing the fury on Madam Tang and Mrs. Gu’s faces, he was really afraid that if he got involved, he might get caught up in it too.

Father Tang weighed his options and decisively stood next to Father Gu; it’s better to watch from the sidelines.

Mrs. Gu was sure tough; she didn’t hold back just because Gu Beihuai was her son. It was only when Tang Chuxia stepped in to stop her that she relented.

"Aunt Hong, you can’t entirely blame Gu Beihuai for this. It was my lack of forethought that led to this mistake!"

Hearing Tang Chuxia’s words, Mrs. Gu felt there was still some fault on her son’s part.

Mrs. Gu was about to grab Gu Beihuai again when Tang Chuxia stopped her.

"Aunt Hong, how did you get the news?"

Tang Chuxia seized the chance to wink at Gu Beihuai, who was feeling quite frustrated; he finally had the chance to build some rapport with Tang Chuxia, but...

Turns out he’s just a pitiful newlywed husband who couldn’t kiss his wife and got scolded by his own mother.

Probably the most miserable newlywed in the world, right?

Gu Beihuai could only step outside, where he saw Father Gu and Father Tang with mischievous smiles at the door.

Gu Beihuai: ...

If it wasn’t for his moral restraint, he might have been tempted to disrespect his elders.

Not only did they not comfort him, but they also had the nerve to laugh.

Are they even human?

Gu Beihuai gritted his teeth and asked Father Gu, "How did you get here?"

Tang Chuxia had just asked this question to Madam Tang inside, and Gu Beihuai wanted to know as well.

"Oh, it was the third son who called us!" Father Tang said, and Gu Beihuai just wanted to curse, but after glancing at the two mothers in the room, he held back.

Afraid of getting beaten.

He dashed toward Tang Jianzheng’s hospital room.

Father Tang and Father Gu quickly followed, and in Tang Jianzheng’s room, he was crying out in agony.

After all, it was quite pitiful for him too. Bone regeneration isn’t something that happens in a day, and though Tang Chuxia had been asleep for three days, leaving Tang Jianzheng bedridden, upon regaining his mobility, he realized the benefits of lying still.

Even Huang Yaqin beside him didn’t dare to approach, really fearing that in a moment of pain-induced irrationality from Tang Jianzheng, she might not be ready to become crippled.

Gu Beihuai charged in, ready to lash out at Tang Jianzheng, but seeing him soaked in cold sweat and still gritting his teeth in determination, he hesitated.

He had to turn to Father Tang.

He was hoping Father Tang would scold Tang Jianzheng a bit, at least make him feel slightly better, but seeing the pitiful state of Tang Jianzheng, Father Tang went pale.

"What happened? Wasn’t it your sister who was hospitalized? Why are you here too?"

Tang Jianzheng only told the family over the phone that Tang Chuxia had an accident but didn’t mention himself at all.

As Father Tang cried out in surprise, Madam Tang also rushed in.

Compared to Father Tang’s reaction, Madam Tang just hugged Tang Jianzheng directly, "Oh my son, what happened to you? Why are you in such pain, where’s the painkiller?"

Tang Jianzheng glanced at Tang Chuxia at the door and couldn’t help grinding his teeth.

It backfired.

Pain does numb one’s intellect.

He hadn’t anticipated this outcome.

Luckily, Elder Huang was there and explained the situation to Madam Tang. After realizing it was merely the pain from bone regrowth, Madam Tang cried.

Her daughter had been in a coma for several days, just woke up, and was frighteningly thin!

Now her son was almost crippled and still had to endure inhuman torment.

No mother could bear it.

Madam Tang was one of them; she kept taking deep breaths, trying to calm down, but it wasn’t working; she was still very upset.

"What’s that phrase?"

Tang Chuxia sneaked to the side of Tang Jianzheng, softly whispered to him, "Heaven may forgive one’s wrongs, but self-inflicted sins cannot escape punishment!"

Tang Jianzheng gritted his teeth and squeezed out, "You started this first!"
