UOE – Chapter Forty
Chapter Forty
Zhen Lang parked his car in front of his parents and in-law’s home.
Gu Jing hugged Dou Dou and she felt no joy at the sight of Zhen Lang’s parents and her parents’ home.
Zhen Lang held Gu Jing’s shoulders. ‘Wait, why are you in a rush?’
‘What is it? Do you want to kiss me good bye?’ Gu Jing asked sarcastically.
‘If my wife volunteers to kiss me good bye then it’ll make me happy and scared,’ Zhen Lang said. He got out of the car and he opened the passenger door for his wife. ‘Wife welcome home.’
Gu Jing realised since she picked up a pen and signed her name on the marriage registration form, Zhen Lang’s smile never disappeared and it creeped her out of her mind.
Gu Jing only wanted to distance herself from Zhen Lang. She was determined to seize the first opportunity to flee.
‘Are you certain you want to go inside like this?’ Zhen Lang asked. He pointed at his and Gu Jing’s marriage documentation inside a pink box. ‘You want my mum-in-law to see?’
Gu Jing’s shaky hand grabbed Zhen Lang’s shirt and she tucked the pink box inside one of the pockets of his jacket. ‘We’re a good sworn brother and sister pair. You need to be an honorable man so you can’t tell our parents.’
‘We can’t keep this kind of big news from our parents. It’s better if we directly tell our parents,’ Zhen Lang said.
‘No!’ Gu Jing said.
Gu Jing knew if her parents and Zhen Lang’s parents find out they were married then she could never leave Zhen Lang’s imprisonment. She wanted to wait for the day Zhen Lang regretted marrying her and he would give back her freedom.
‘About this, shouldn’t we prepare our parents mentally first? If we suddenly spring the news on them, I’m scared it’ll be hard for our parents to accept-’ Gu Jing said.
‘This is good news, not bad news. Why wouldn’t they accept it? It’ll make them happy,’ Zhen Lang said.
‘Didn’t you say you’ll listen to your wife? Then I don’t want you to tell our parents, because I want to tell our parents myself,’ Gu Jing said.
In that moment Gu Jing took advantage of her new status. ‘You can’t expose this news to them.’
Zhen Lang pouted his lips. ‘But wife, are you really not going to acknowledge my status?’
Gu Jing didn’t know who to cry to, because Zhen Lang sulked in front of her. She fumed and she glared at Zhen Lang. ‘I don’t care, you promise you’ll listen to me.’
‘Then there needs to be a set time frame. Three months! I’m only giving you three months to tell our parents. After three months if you don’t tell our parents then I will,’ Zhen Lang said.
Gu Jing exhaled gently and she nodded her head.
Gu Jing thought within three months she would find a way to force Zhen Lang to divorce her.
‘If I have to bear an injustice then shouldn’t you compensate me?’ Zhen Lang asked.
Zhen Lang inched closer to Gu Jing, and she hugged Dou Dou tighter.
‘What compensation do you want?’ Zhen Lang asked.
‘We’re husband and wife. What else do you think I would want? Of course I want you to honor your wifely duties,’ Zhen Lang said.
Gu Jing took a deep breath. ‘Ok, later we’ll live together in the city.’
Zhen Lang kept silent and he waited for his wife to continue.
‘I’ll do all the housework chores that I know how to do,’ Gu Jing said. She was used to being threatened by Zhen Lang for years, and housework didn’t faze her anymore. ‘I’ll sweep the floors, clean the toilet and wash clothes.’
