Chapter 166 A MAN OF WORD PART 14&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt; 'What did I just do?' Xue Lin was taking a cold shower the next day and recalled last night's incident. She couldn't remember everything vividly. The more time passed, the more she recollected every single detail.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin touched her lips as she thought back how Ge Chen's warm lips touched hers. She covered her deep red face and told herself in her mind, 'I've gone nuts.'&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;She had been taking a cold shower for thirty minutes and yet she couldn't calm down her racing heart. The worst part was, she didn't know how to face her husband. She was in a deep dilemma as she wasn't sure if she should act like she couldn't remember anything or she should face it head-on.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;'But if I act like nothing had happened, doesn't that mean that I'm deceiving him? Ah, that bad husband of mine. How could he do that? And, why the hell did I tell him to remove that sensation? If I could realize sooner what he meant by removing the sensation, I wouldn't have agreed with his scheming plot. I should never get drunk!'&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Knock! Knock! Knock!&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin was startled when someone knocked on the bathroom door. She was wary for a second that someone would unlock the door. That's when she heard a voice, "Lin, are you still awake? You are bathing for a long time. Don't catch a cold."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Upon hearing Ge Chen's worried voice, she felt rather guilty. She replied, "I know. I'll come out soon."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"All right," Ge Chen responded and walked away.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin sighed in relief and decided, 'I should face it head-on. So what if we kissed? It's only natural. I'm not a coward who would lie about something like that.'&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;After that, she dried herself and wore clothes. When she got out of the bathroom, she found Ge Chen standing on the balcony. He was wearing a sky blue shirt and white pants. His hair was moving in the morning breeze. In front of him was a green forest and a clear sky. It looked like a painting.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin was looking at him in a daze. She came back to her senses when her cell phone chimed. She checked her phone and frowned. She got an email. It was from her sister.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;It was written: 'Sis, how are you doing? You haven't contacted us after you left. We are all worried about you. Without your mobile, passport and credit card, how can you live outside? Don't tell me you are living off someone else? You won't do that, right? I know you are not that kind of person. Come back home. That guy had already married. No one will force you to marry anymore. You can rest assured. Father is getting weaker thinking about you day and night. Also…'&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin's lips twitched after reading the email. She felt so irritated that she didn't finish reading. 'Worried about me, huh? You destroyed my mobile, passport and credit card and you have the gall to say that you care for me. So what if I live off someone? I should blame you for this. Whenever I meet you all, I have nothing but misfortune happen to me. You dare to tell me to go back. I���m going to curse you to death.'&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"You have a scary look on your face," Ge Chen commented. He heard that the bathroom door was opened but didn't hear any other sound. Curiously he turned around and saw an ugly expression on his wife's face.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin threw her mobile on the bed. She controlled her emotions and announced, "It looks like you have to meet your in-laws soon."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Ge Chen observed her small face before agreeing with her, "All right, when do you want to go?"&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin suggested, "Tomorrow is Sunday. We can go tomorrow. What do you think?" She wanted to finish this family drama as soon as possible.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"Fine by me," Ge Chen nodded in agreement.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin warned her husband, "Don't be too optimistic. My family is another trash-can like yours. They might create a scene."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Ge Chen controlled his laughter and asked, "Won't you be there to protect me?"&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin responded in a serious manner, "That goes without saying."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Ge Chen walked closer and placed his right palm on her head. "You don't have to protect me. I will take care of everything."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin shook her head. "I can't let you do that. We are a couple. We should support each other."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;She won't allow anyone to fight for her. She always thinks that she is better alone. That's why she has prepared herself for any kind of situation. She will never blame anyone if they want to walk away from her. She won't stop them either. She will wish them luck and walk alone.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"My wife is always right as usual. So tell me," Ge Chen leaned closer and asked in a deep tone, "Was I able to remove the sensation of that kiss?"&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin really worked hard to calm herself down. However, the moment he mentioned the kiss, her face instantly turned into a red tomato. She frowned to hide her embarrassment and pushed him away. While doing so, she answered, "It not only wiped the sensation but also added yours."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Ge Chen was amused by her reaction but he was glad that she was only embarrassed and not mad at him. To tell the truth, he was prepared to get punched or some sleepless nights. He found out that his wife was truly generous and reasonable.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;He couldn't help but say, "My wife, the more I find out about you, the more amazed I am."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin was busy pushing him away. She retorted, "And, the more I learn about you, the more I realize my mistake of marrying you. I married a wolf!"&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Ge Chen's grey eyes dangerously narrowed. "Oh, you found out so easily, my wife. It looks like I cannot let you go anymore." He abruptly held her waist and pulled her closer.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;
