Chapter 32

Fu Tingyuan went to the study room after dinner.

Back when they were still married, she was almost never able to wait for him to return before sleeping despite sharing the same bed.

Usually, Fu Tingyuan would only emerge from the study after she had fallen asleep.

Back then, she thought Fu Tingyuan was afraid she would take him violently.

Now, it seemed that this man was really just a workaholic.

He had just come back from work, but he immediately went upstairs to work after dinner.

Luo Nanchu was strolling alone in the courtyard.

The night was as cold as water.

She would amble around until her hands and feet were freezing, and only then would she go upstairs by herself and take a hot shower in the bathroom.

When she came out, she saw that Fu Tingyuan was standing in front of the bedside cabinet looking at something.

Luo Nanchu walked over to take a peek while drying her dripping wet hair with a towel, and she noticed that Fu Tingyuan had his sight fixed on a case of blue condoms on the cabinet.

Luo Nanchu smiled a little while wiping her hair.

“I didn’t know Mr. Fu’s exact size, so I just asked the help staff to get a random one,” she explained.

Fu Tingyuan shot an unemotional glance at her and said, “It seems you haven’t learned your lesson from yesterday.”

Luo Nanchu’s face grew pale, then flushed red. It was a miracle she did not choke.

She had definitely learned her lesson last night.

This man was definitely a beast.

“You seem to be satisfied with your own size, Mr. Fu.”

Fu Tingyuan shot another glance at her and responded, “After all, you did cry so hysterically.”

Luo Nanchu was speechless.

Luo Nanchu uttered a quiet “hmph” and turned to walk toward the balcony to air out her hair.

He had such terrible technique, yet he was so proud of himself! She really had no idea where such self-confidence came from!

Luo Nanchu came back inside after airing out her hair, but Fu Tingyuan was nowhere to be found.

She heaved a sigh of relief. She had been worried that he was going to “make love” to her again tonight.

She changed into her pajamas, turned off the light, and went to bed.

She was out cold for some time when she felt her body jolt—a big, freezing cold hand was groping her, moving upward from her waist. She opened her eyes, only to be greeted by Fu Tingyuan’s delicate eyebrows and profound eyes.

Luo Nanchu gasped internally. Externally, she smiled coquettishly while looking at him.

“Mr. Fu, please don’t forget to use protection tonight.”

She reached out to cup his face and grumbled, “You did not use protection yesterday.”

She felt Fu Tingyuan freeze in place.

“Relax, I have already taken a morning-after pill.”

She took a condom from the cabinet, stuffed it in his palm, and explained, “We are still within the 24-hour time frame for the efficacy of the morning-after pill, but prevention is better than cure.”

Fu Tingyuan observed her smiling face—it was beautiful, but did not feel sincere. It didn’t reach her eyes.

He flung the condom back to the top of the cabinet and remarked, “Since the effect of the pill has not worn off, why bother with a condom?

Luo Nanchu’s smile waned slightly. Fu Tingyuan lowered his head and lightly nibbled on her collarbone.

She gasped in a low voice, unsure whether out of nervousness or fear. Fu Tingyuan’s palm was scalded by the heat of her skin as her body shuddered lightly from his touch. Luo Nanchu slowly closed her eyes and started bracing herself.

He kissed her lightly from her collarbone to her elegant lower jaw, then to her lips, her nose, and her forehead. Lastly, he went back to gently interlocking his mouth with hers.

This man really liked to kiss her.

Did he do the same when he was sleeping with Bai Zhiyan?

She was daydreaming when she suddenly felt a twinge of pain on her lips. She opened her eyes and met Fu Tingyuan’s mildly angry eyes.
