My Youth Began With Him

“Honey… are you trying to be a comedian?” Huo Mian almost couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

“Do I look like I’m trying to be funny?” Qin Chu’s face was scarier than scary.

“Then what do you want?” Huo Mian was helpless. Her hubby wasn’t giving in to her efforts of making nice. What was she to do?

“I don’t want to see you.”

“Okay, then… I’ll leave…” Huo Mian stood up to leave.

“Get back here.” Qin Chu couldn’t pretend any longer.

“Didn’t you tell me to leave?” Huo Mian smiled.

“I said I don’t want to see you but I didn’t tell you to leave.” Master Qin was being completely unreasonable.

“What? Then why am I staying? Should I cover my face with a piece of cloth?” Huo Mian rolled her eyes.

“That’s actually not a bad idea,” Qin Chu said.

Huo Mian: “…”

“Why aren’t you covering yourself yet? Do you need me to help you?” Qin Chu’s gaze swept past Huo Mian’s face calmly.

“Don’t… Hubby… that’s so cruel…” Huo Mian pleaded in tears.

“Oh, now you think it’s cruel? What happened to the bravery you had when you jumped off the building? Little Mian, throughout all these years, I never knew that you wanted to die with Huo Siqian. Do you know how pissed off I am?” Qin Chu repeated.

So that was what he was mad about…

It turned out, Qin Chu was mad because he thought that Huo Mian was willing to die with Huo Siqian. How ridiculous.

“Master Qin, listen to me…” Huo Mian was in a hurry to explain herself.

“Wait, let’s set this aside for a minute. Explain about you bringing breakfast for Su Yu this morning first.”

“Ugh… you know about that too? Did Gao Ran tell you? That tattletale.” Huo Mian clenched her jaws.

“No, it has nothing to do with Gao Ran. Su Yu put it on his WeChat moments.” (

“Um… what moments? Let me see.” Because of her busy day, Huo Mian hadn’t checked her Wechat the entire day.

Qin Chu took out his phone and pulled up Su Yu’s page, then handing it over to her.

Su Yu posted a picture of his breakfast that was captioned: Breakfast from the vice director is delicious, of course.

“What the… how could Su Yu sell me out like this…” Huo Mian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“Now you may explain yourself.” Qin Chu lifted one of his hands, tapping his long, slender fingers on the tabletop, looking like he was about to fire Huo Mian from her position as his wife.

“Honey, why do you have Su Yu’s Wechat? Didn’t you say you weren’t going to add him?” Huo Mian piled on the smiles.

“Little Mian, please don’t try to change the topic. Answer my question.”

“I… I’m not trying to change the topic. What I mean is that… I… remember how I was investigating Liu Ze’s false accusations against Su Yu? You know, Liu Ze’s girlfriend is Zhao Xiya, Zhao Qingya’s younger sister. She died in Su Yu’s home, remember? So he’s been trying to seek revenge ever since.”

“What does this have to do with you bringing Su Yu breakfast?”

“Ugh…”

“You even brought him shrimp dumplings and crab roe buns. Our breakfast at home isn’t even that delicious. Little Mian, am I too busy these days? Are you preparing to cheat on me?” Qin Chu interrogated.

“Ahem… Master Qin… you’re flattering me. I’m too old to cheat haha… no one would want me, haha,” Huo Mian explained awkwardly.

“So, you did so many bad things… how should I punish you?” Qin Chu got up and turned around slowly, inching his way towards Huo Mian…

“We’ve been married for so long. Let’s forget about punishments… Haha, I’ll watch myself next time.” Huo Mian tried to muddle through the situation.

“That’s not right. What about this… we can exercise until the morning… hm?” With that, Qin Chu tore off his tie aggressively, instantly revealing the majority of his chest.
