Guide to tame my villainous husbands novel Chapter 1018

Xie Jie sighed as he pulled the hair at the back of his nape before sliding down his bed. He looked down at his shirt which was sticking to his torso and muttered, "I might as well take a bath, it feels rather sticky. It is annoying."

In the past when their family didn't have water, Xie Jie didn't mind this sticky feeling but ever since he started taking a bath, he no longer felt better unless he washed his body with water.

He hummed a soft tune before taking his clothes from the wardrobe and heading to the bathing room. However, as soon as he dipped his body inside the bathing tub, Xie Jie was suddenly reminded of the words that Mo Qiang spoke to him in his dream.

'I will protect you,'

"Psst, so cheesy," he laughed while washing his hair. "What did she mean by that she will protect me? She can't even protect herself most of the time." He murmured when he thought about how Mo Qiang was locked up in the prison just a few hours ago.

Even, he was being a tad bit foolish, why was he dreaming of that woman claiming to protect him? He should know better than that— if trouble was to knock on their door, it would be him protecting Mo Qiang and not the other way around.

"That's right," Xie Jie sighed with a content expression on his face. "Since I am useless in more than one way, I might as well make up for it. Maybe I will be allowed to stay here a bit longer?"

He finished his bath and then walked out of the bathing room after he had cleaned and dried himself up. With freshly ironed and washed clothes on his body and a towel around his neck, he walked over to his bed where he picked up his monitor.

However, as soon as he picked it up, Xie Jie dropped it back on the bed.

For two seconds, he stood stiffly. As if he were to continue rejecting it would somehow change the reality.

"There is no way it happened. No there is no way," he muttered again and again, at the same time he glared at his monitor as if the thing had said something really rude to him.

For a long time, he continued denying it. However, after repeating this cycle for more than three times, and ten whole minutes, Xie Jie knew that he had no choice but to face the situation in front of him.

So, he inhaled deeply before crouching down and picking up the monitor from the floor. With trembling fingers, he tapped on the message that Doctor Chou had sent him,

[See? I told you that as long as you try to talk to her, there is no way she will not understand your condition. Don't worry, Jie Jie. We will preserve your womb well until we can find a way to solve the poison in your body.]

[You should thank your wife and be a bit more nice to her. It seems like she is not as unreasonable as you made her out to be. Look at this, isn't she willing to accept you now?]

Xie Jie swallowed hard before skimming down the message and then saw the one which was sent three hours ago. He tapped on it and saw the form which Doctor Chou had sent to him, it was the exactly same one with just a minor difference —

Mo Qiang's signature was on the form and she had already paid for his surgery.

"S—she knows?" Xie Jie stumbled on his feet. The back of his legs touched the bed and he fell on top of it. His pupils constricted as he stared at the signature that seemed to be burning on the surface of his heart.

A trickle of fear started to curl around his heart, mind and soul. Before the soft trickle turned into something more raging. _{freewebnøvel.com}
