Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 754

Chapter 754: Chapter 754: Never Let Down Your Guard Against Others

Having said that, Qin Yang didn’t speak further.

It was only later in the evening, when Lin Chuxia entered the room after washing up, she noticed Qin Yang’s face was pale, his thin lips tightly pressed together.

Seeing him like this, Lin Chuxia knew he had something on his mind.

She lifted the blanket and got on the bed, glanced sideways at him, and asked, "What’s wrong? Still worried about my business trip?"

Over the years, Lin Chuxia had only traveled far once, and that was to Rong City to stock up for the fashion mall.

But something happened on that trip.

Initially, Lin Chuxia didn’t tell Qin Yang, fearing it would make him worry.

But somehow, he heard about it from someone else, and they had a falling out over it for several days.

Thinking about this, Lin Chuxia hugged his arm and playfully said, "Don’t worry, I will take care of myself when I’m away, for you and Qi Qi’s sake, I won’t let anything happen to me. Besides, this time is really different from last time. I’m just going to take a look, and my mentor has already contacted someone familiar. What else are you worried about?"

Looking at her rare weak demeanor, the words in Qin Yang’s heart were hard to put out.

Speaking would make him seem childish, but not speaking, he had a hundred, a thousand worries.

"That Gu Peng, I always feel he’s not quite suitable to accompany you. If you don’t want Zhuang Yang to go with you, let Wang Tianyu accompany you instead."

In all these years of marriage, Qin Yang had never opposed Lin Chuxia’s decisions, especially regarding her work.

This was a first.

Lin Chuxia looked up and saw his unusually serious expression, taken aback slightly.

Thinking of something, she smiled, "Are you that concerned about me bringing Gu Peng?"

Seeing him purse his lips again, Lin Chuxia leaned in with a smile to kiss him.

"Do you know how cute you look when you’re jealous? Look at our Minister Qin, gets jealous like a little wife. With such a lovable husband, how could I even glance at another man?"

She cuddled Qin Yang’s arm coquettishly, "Honey, don’t worry, Gu Peng isn’t what you think. He’s very dedicated and responsible at work. I’ve thought carefully before taking him along. Mom’s business is shifting to domestic markets, and both my brother and Luo Sen are swamped. I can’t just call them to travel with me now, can I? Tianyu’s work is scheduled too, and he’s been responsible for Ancheng County recently. Changing plans last minute would just create work hassle."

Concerning Gu Peng, she was always rational. Lin Chuxia felt that Qin Yang was biased against Gu Peng, simply because he didn’t know him well enough.

"Alright honey, even if you don’t trust Gu Peng, don’t you trust me? Don’t forget, I also have combat skills. Is it because I don’t use them often that you’ve forgotten I can protect myself? Besides, it’s just a survey over there. What could happen? If you’re jealous because of Gu Peng, there’s really no need. With such a handsome and considerate husband, how would I find interest in anyone else?"

"But I always feel there’s something odd about Gu Peng’s feelings towards you."

Especially the way Gu Peng looked at Lin Chuxia, it was always vague and ambiguous.

"He’s just like that, always grumpy, plus, I know he’s an avowed bachelor. He’s not interested in little girls, let alone a married woman like me."

The more nonchalantly she spoke, the more uncomfortable Qin Yang felt.

"Are you perhaps too trusting of him? How long have you known him? How much can you know about him, sweetheart? It’s always good to keep some guard up."

"Alright, alright, I got it, don’t worry, I’ll be cautious around him."

Lin Chuxia didn’t want to dwell on Gu Peng any longer; she believed time would prove everything.

As she hugged his arm, she leaned in, and a warm kiss landed on his eyes.

"I’ll be leaving tomorrow, don’t make me worry. With you like this, I feel like I’m not going for work, but eloping with another man..."

"But you..."

Before he could finish, her soft lips sealed his, "Just trust me..."
