After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 160

An Nuan took the bird's nest from Uncle Zhong and slowly ate it bite by bite.

"Uncle Zhong, you don't have to keep me company. Go rest after you finish your work," An Nuan said, not wanting him to work so hard.

"I'm too old to really sleep. I'll just keep you company," Uncle Zhong gently replied.

An Nuan gave a silent laugh.

She suddenly felt that her previous life had truly been meaningless.

In her past life, An Nuan was dutiful and used her whole heart to treat the Ye family, but in the end still met a tragic fate of family destruction and untimely death. Now in this life, she was merely married off, yet suddenly had a feeling of being doted on like never before.

It wasn't just Uncle Zhong, but also the Ye family and even Ye Jinghuai...

An Nuan adjusted her emotions slightly, not letting herself think too much.

She casually changed the subject, "Has Uncle Zhong always taken care of Ye Jinghuai?"

"Yes, I've cared for the young master since he was little," he replied.

"Did you also come from the Ye family villa? Because Ye Jinghuai moved out of the Ye house, you followed along with him here?" An Nuan asked curiously.

"Not completely," Uncle Zhong said simply without further explanation, still wearing a gentle smile.

"Is Ye Jinghuai bad-tempered? Did he use to be very mischievous as a child, often getting beaten by his parents?" An Nuan continued asking.

She felt that since they were chatting anyway, she might as well casually bring up some gossip.

It would avoid any awkward silences.

"The young master basically never loses his temper," Uncle Zhong said.

Because anything that could be resolved with his hands, he wouldn't bother using his mouth for.

So there was no need to lose his temper.

As for being mischievous and getting beaten by his parents...

"The young master was not mischievous, nor would he be beaten by his parents."

After all, the education the young master received since childhood was different from normal people's.

The Ye couple could not lay a hand on him.

"Ye Jinghuai was really that well-behaved?" An Nuan found it a little hard to believe.

At first glance, he seemed like the mischievous troublemaking type.

"Mm," Uncle Zhong nodded.

The young master really was very obedient.

He never rebelled or complained.

An Nuan felt there was no more gossip to pry out of Uncle Zhong.

The saying "lover's eyes see only beauty" was true.

She felt that in Uncle Zhong's eyes, Ye Jinghuai was simply perfect.

Everything Ye Jinghuai did was right in his eyes.

After finishing the bird's nest, An Nuan left the hall and went upstairs.

Pushing open the door to her room, she visibly paused for a moment.

Because lying on her big bed was a tall man.

Right now he wasn't sleeping either, just passing time on his phone with one hand.

Sensing the door open, he glanced over with the corner of his eye and said sarcastically, "You finally came back."

His tone clearly carried a hint of anger.

An Nuan looked at Ye Jinghuai's appearance.

Uncle Zhong had just said he was even-tempered.

This guy, how was he even-tempered in the slightest.

"There were a lot of things to deal with at work," An Nuan simply explained.

"So you can just ignore me and not care, is that it?" Ye Jinghuai said.

"You're fine at home, what is there to care about?" An Nuan was truly easily angered by Ye Jinghuai.

She didn't even know why all those years of upbringing went down the drain with this guy.

It took barely a minute for her to feel like cursing at him.

"I'm home alone and unable to move around. Don't I need someone to accompany me?" Ye Jinghuai said.

"Didn't Qin Jiang come keep you company?"

"Is Qin Jiang my wife?"

"He can be your husband," An Nuan bluntly replied.

Ye Jinghuai's face turned green.

An Nuan suddenly felt like she had won that round.

"Come here!" Ye Jinghuai ordered.

An Nuan was fully on guard.

This guy wouldn't want to hit her, would he?!

Look at him, still saying he's even-tempered.

"Come here," Ye Jinghuai ordered again.

"Don't you dare try to hit me," An Nuan said warily.

"Just what kind of scum do you take me for?!" Ye Jinghuai was truly so angry he could spit blood.

"Then what do you want to do?" An Nuan looked at him with clear provocation.

"I need to pee."

"Are you a dog? Needing to pee nonstop."

"I haven't peed all day!" Ye Jinghuai said angrily.

"Why not?"

"Isn't it obvious, I can't pee if you're not here!" Ye Jinghuai was exasperated.

"......" Am I a pissing post?!

Male dogs have to lean against a post to be able to pee.

"Hurry up, I can't hold it anymore," Ye Jinghuai urged.

He really did seem desperate.

An Nuan was utterly speechless at Ye Jinghuai.

She walked over and bent down to help prop Ye Jinghuai up.

Clearly he wasn't unable to take care of himself, yet he had to torture her like this.

He must know she felt guilty, so no matter how stubborn she acted, she wouldn't refuse him, right?!

With great difficulty, An Nuan supported Ye Jinghuai up from the bed.

Ye Jinghuai put almost his entire weight on her.

In front of Ye Jinghuai, she was already petite to begin with. Right now she truly felt like her slender body would collapse under his weight.

"Did you grow up eating iron? You're so heavy," An Nuan complained.

"Can't even support this much?" Seeing An Nuan's struggling appearance, Ye Jinghuai's mood seemed rather good.

He was clearly taking pleasure in her misery.

Casually, he said, "If I'm on top of you in the future, looks like I might crush you to death."

"Who allowed you on top of me?!" An Nuan rolled her eyes.

Ye Jinghuai seemed to laugh for a moment.

His laugh was very meaningful.

At first An Nuan didn't react, but soon realized what he meant.

This Ye Jinghuai...

Every third sentence was about doing it.

With great difficulty, An Nuan supported Ye Jinghuai in front of the toilet.

"Standard procedure," Ye Jinghuai reminded.

An Nuan gritted her teeth and helped him take off his pants, then...

The bathroom was filled with the sound of peeing.

It lasted for a very long time as usual.

Just as Ye Jinghuai was about to open his mouth...

"I know you have great kidneys," An Nuan cut him off.

Ye Jinghuai laughed and said, "No, Miss An still doesn't know."

"......" Damn.

After helping Ye Jinghuai use the bathroom, An Nuan supported him back to the bed. "Any other orders?"

"Wipe my body."

"Didn't I just wipe you this morning?"

"Did you eat breakfast but decide to skip dinner?"

An Nuan really wanted to beat Ye Jinghuai to death. What kind of twisted logic was that.

Gritting her teeth, she went to the bathroom and soaked a hot towel. Avoiding his private areas, she helped wipe him down.

After wiping him, she was ordered to pour tea and water, scratch itches, and give massages, before finally managing to get Ye Jinghuai to sleep.

Only then did An Nuan have time to take a shower herself.

After her shower, she seemed to hear Ye Jinghuai's steady, even breathing of deep sleep.

An Nuan couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief.

She had finally gotten His Highness to sleep.

She carefully got into bed.

There was still some discomfort.

Discomfort at sharing a bed.

She turned off the bedside lamp.

Deliberately keeping some distance as she slept.

The moment she fell asleep, she felt a rather dangerous body press tightly against her back.

She didn't move a muscle.

Her whole body tense.

Behind her was still Ye Jinghuai's steady breathing.

An Nuan made herself relax.

Actually...

From their interactions these past few days, she understood very clearly that Ye Jinghuai would not do anything to take advantage of her.

Her heart, for some inexplicable reason, even felt a little moved that was hard to put into words.

She turned over to face Ye Jinghuai.

Through the moonlight she could vaguely make out his handsome features.

She said, "Thank you, Ye Jinghuai."

In the darkness.

She didn't notice the smile that turned up at the corners of the sleeping man's lips.
