Chapter 400: Chapter 400 Responsibility and Love_1 Chapter 400: Chapter 400 Responsibility and Love_1 Even though she knew long ago that she would spend her life with Huo Beijiang and be with no other man, this realization is completely different from what she feels now.
One is a sense of duty, the other, love.
“Why…why aren’t you speaking?” Nan Fei couldn’t help but ask in a whisper. After she posed her question, she heard the man’s heavy panting over the phone. The phone was pressed to her ear, so the panting sounded like it was right next to her.
She felt as if she could sense the breath that made her heart flutter.
Nan Fei’s ears turned red.
“Wife, say it one more time, I like hearing it.” Huo Beijiang whispered seductively.
“I don’t want to say it.” She felt too embarrassed after taking the initiative to speak up.
“My wife, you are too shy!” He found his shy little wife adorable.
His shy little wife was just so cute that he couldn’t help but want to hold her tight and lose himself in her.
He was shameless enough to criticize others for being overly reserved?
“Wife, I miss you, miss you so much, so much…” Huo Beijiang’s voice lost its earlier frivolity and gained a more profound tone. “During the day while at work, I’m too afraid of being distracted to let myself miss you. I can only allow myself to do that at night when I’m asleep. Thinking of you hurts.”
Nan Fei felt as if something in her mind had shattered with a bang.
“Is… is your work going smoothly? You haven’t been injured, have you?”
The bloodstain on his right shoulder was still very apparent, but he lied with open eyes, “Everything is going smoothly, no injuries. I’m on my way back to the office now, I’ll reach soon.”
“So… do you have any holidays remaining?” Last time he was home he said he had a month-long holiday, but he returned in a week.
Huo Beijiang hesitated a moment, “I will strive for it. Wife, wait for me! I’ll come home to see you.”
“Who asked you to come and see me.” Nan Fei had rectified almost all her previous faults, but her hard-mouthed habit wasn’t something she could get rid of so easily.
“Of course it’s you! I know you miss me.” Huo Beijiang laughed happily. His little wife also missed him. Just the thought of it was enough to send a rush of blood coursing through his body. He pursed his thin lips, using willpower to suppress his body’s natural response.
Nan Fei could never have guessed the shameless thoughts running through Huo Beijiang’s mind. If she knew, she would probably hang up on him immediately.
“By the way! Have you been wearing the medal I sent you?”
Mentioning the medal irked Nan Fei. It was all his fault for the bombastic gifts. The last one was a bullet that he claimed had passed through a man’s heart.
This time, the medal with its embarrassing four words had already been seen by everyone.
She was too ashamed to meet Ying Jiuming after that, guessing he must be laughing behind her back!
“I didn’t wear it!” Nan Fei answered in annoyance.
“Why didn’t you?” Huo Beijiang’s tone turned serious, “I can wear it every day.” He pointed to the left side of his chest as he spoke, where the medal was gleaming brightly.
“What?” Nan Fei was taken aback that he too had a similar medal, and he wore it every day.
“What kind of medal did you make for yourself?” Swallowing hard, she asked with difficulty.
“Just like yours, but the words are different. Mine reads ‘Nan Fei’s Husband’, so everyone will know that I’m your man.” His tone was full of pride.
“Uh…” Nan Fei weakly pressed a hand to her forehead. Soon everyone would know her name, Jiang Nanfei. “Can you not wear it every day?”
