From Now On, I will Protect You 18

“Tell me about it.”

“Um... I don’t know how to say it... It’s a bit embarrassing.”

Bella glanced at Huo Mian and then at Qin Chu sitting nearby.

“Hon, put on your earpiece. I’ll hear it.” Huo Mian chuckled.

Obediently, Qin Chu grabbed the earpiece from the desk and put it on.

Bella said hesitantly, “Dad, oh, no, that guy has never done... um... that thing with Mom ever since he returned.”

Huo Mian was a married woman and understood Bella’s meaning instantly.

She knew why Bella didn’t want to say it in front of Qin Chu.

“Then?” Huo Mian asked.

“He went upstairs each night after Mom was asleep... He must be avoiding doing it with her... One night I came downstairs to get coffee and saw Mom kiss him but he pushed her away forcefully. He seemed very uncomfortable. Mom looked disappointed... I believe Dad had never treated Mom this way, so I feel it’s a bit weird... They are not so old as to stop having sex altogether. Besides, it’s normal for them to be intimate physically. But that man is repulsed by it.”

Bella was indeed observant. Huo Mian nodded and said, “Okay, I got it. Continue watching him. Anyway, be careful; call me immediately if you find something is wrong.”

“Okay, Sister Mian.”

“Thank you, Bella. I’m sorry that you can’t enjoy your newly married life due to the things happening in our family.”

“Don’t mention it. Sister Mian, I wouldn’t have had today’s life without you and President Qin. Besides, Zhixin is very good to me. I’m content and happy.”

After the talk, Bella stood up and left the office.

Mr. Qin took off the earpiece.

“Honey...”

“You don’t have to tell me. You can handle it by yourself,” Qin Chu held her hand and said gently.

Huo Mian smiled. Indeed, this information was too personal to share with Qin Chu, so she didn’t tell him.

In the evening.

Han Yueyao practiced her dance in the company until it turned dark outside. Not wanting to be eliminated, she was doing her best.

It wasn’t that she wanted Su Yu’s prize of a car; she just didn’t want to let him down.

Fatigued, she returned to her dorm room; washing an apple, she lay on the bed and began to eat.

Then a beep came from her WeChat and she immediately picked it up, thinking it came from Su Yu...

To her disappointment, it came from her partner, the playboy King Cannon.

“Yao, are you better? Can we do the live show tomorrow?”

“No problem. Don’t worry, I won’t burden you.”

“You misunderstood me again. I was only showing my concern for you.”

“Thank you for your concern. I’ll do my best.”

“Have you eaten? I’m doing a promotion in the neighboring city and can reach your place in two hours. We can have hot pot together.”

“I just ate.”

“I see...” Yuan Bo was embarrassed.

“How about I treat you to a spa?”

Han Yueyao: “...”

“Do you want me to hit you?” Han Yueyao was amazed that he used SPA to describe having sex.

“Haha. You misunderstood me again. I truly want to treat you to a SPA... Nothing else.”

“Yuan Bo, don’t play with me. If you can’t behave yourself, we’d better split up or ask the agents for another partner.”

Han Yueyao didn’t know the guy was serious or just joking but she was quite determined to refuse any advance from him.

Having sex with him? Of course not!

“Yao, what if I want to go out with you?” Not wanting to admit defeat, Yuan Bo insisted.
