Chapter 606: Chapter 603

“——but she’s the villain who can only be locked up inside…”

He was tall and upright, stern, and of good character.

In contrast, I’m nothing but a shameless prisoner at the foot of the stairs.

Lu Xiao was at a loss for words when he heard her say that.

He took out a handkerchief from his coat, carefully folded it, and passed it through the iron bars to her, his voice deep and heavy, “Stop thinking nonsense, no more crying. Wipe your face. You’re a grown-up but crying like a kid, what kind of look is that.”

After saying that, Wen Xian scrambled up from the ground.

She grabbed the iron bars with both hands, her eyes full of tears, sobbing righteously, “You wipe it for me.”

With her eyes closed and her little face tilted upward, she waited through the iron bars facing him.

Lu Xiao: “…”

On her little face was the very image of ‘a pear blossom bathed in rain,’ with tears and snot threatening to spill out.

Lu Xiao almost wondered if he had raised a daughter.

But even if she were, the effort of educating her was certainly more demanding than raising a daughter.

If they ever had a daughter, he only hoped she wouldn’t be as recklessly brave as her, scattering romance everywhere. Instead, he hoped she would inherit her father’s composure and rational demeanor, and maintain integrity amidst a sea of temptation.

At the moment,

Separated by an iron gate,

Lu Xiao reached in with one hand, cradling the back of her head, while he shook out the handkerchief with the other, gently wiping away her tears.

Although he said she couldn’t cry, his touch was so tender,

As if he was afraid of hurting her.

After he dried her tears, his hand did not immediately retract.

Rather, he gently caressed her cheek, coaxing her, “Get up, don’t catch a cold.”

“Then, do you think we are a match!”

A captain and a prisoner.

“A match, how could we not be.” Lu Xiao’s head began to throb.

Only then did Wen Xian snort, her eyes still red as she patted her backside and stood up, “We’re a match, a perfect match, the best match, a match made in heaven.”

Lu Xiao pressed his forehead, agreeing repeatedly, “Yes, the best match, a match made in heaven… ”

Even though she had become a prisoner, the captain was still her husband.

Separated by an iron gate, Wen Xian looked at Lu Xiao, her eyes wet, brimming with tears, just watching him render his heart almost to break.

The captain was feeling some regret.

Lu Xiao: “Be good, listen to me, go lie down and rest.”

Wen Xian’s voice carried a heavy nasal tone, “What about you?”

“I’m not going anywhere. I’ll stay right here with you,”

said Lu Xiao.

At his words, something heavy settled in Wen Xian’s heart.

Because she saw that in the corridor outside the iron gate, there wasn’t even a chair, let alone the fact that the temperature was still too low, risking a cold without a blanket at night.

Then, her gaze caught sight of something, and when she looked at him again, with tearful eyes, she said, “…Husband, I’m getting on the plane to go abroad tomorrow… I don’t know when I’ll be able to come back and see you again…”

“So?” Lu Xiao’s gaze was profound.

“I want to sleep with you,” Miss Wen pleaded pitifully at her most coquettish.

After all, letting her out was out of the question, one might guess, he, who was so selflessly just and law-abiding, would certainly not show favoritism.

As soon as she said that, Lu Xiao: “…”

Watching his wife’s pleading eyes constantly glancing at the bunch of keys in his hand, the captain’s eyelid twitched and he took a deep breath.

Finally, after a glance at the surveillance camera above, the captain took out a piece of chewing gum from his coat.
