Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 140

Chapter 140: Chapter 140 This is Your Punishment

In her past life, the relationship between her and Li Guangyuan was more about benefits and scheming; she didn’t love Li Guangyuan, nor did he love her.

Even in those early years when he professed his love with sweet nothings, his eyes were filled with nothing but calculations.

Calculating how much she could contribute to the Li Family, squeezing out whatever else he could get from her.

Qin Yang, on the other hand, never thought about what he could gain from her. Instead, he always felt that what he gave her was never enough, wishing he could lay the whole world at her feet.

In her past life, she never knew the indifference and heartlessness that Lin Jiayi spoke of; she only saw a man who sincerely cared for her, holding her dear to his heart.

Lin Chuxia felt warmth in her eyes. What merit or virtue did she possess to, after being reborn with a mind full of schemes, encounter this man who was so genuinely and passionately emotional?

"Qin Yang..."

"Hmm?"

Qin Yang, worried he hadn’t covered her snugly enough, was fixing the clothes over her feet. Hearing her voice, he looked up, "What’s wrong?"

Lin Chuxia had subconsciously wanted to call out to him, and in the instant he looked back, she regained her composure to hide the emotion in the depths of her eyes.

Her gaze fell on his suspended arm, "What exactly happened? You’re someone who wields a pen; how did you injure your right hand?"

Qin Yang knew he had to explain things clearly, as Lin Chuxia was not someone to be easily fooled.

"The situation was a bit urgent at that time. The project was proceeding according to our design, and that particular node was a technical challenge. Our department’s staff were all on-site to offer guidance. We didn’t expect an accident to happen..."

Qin Yang spoke calmly, but Lin Chuxia heard the harrowing fright of that moment.

By his lone efforts, he saved the entire project and the lives of two workers, a feat nearly impossible, yet he accomplished it.

A slight miscalculation and it wouldn’t have been just the loss of his arm; he would have likely lost his life there as well.

"You promised me you wouldn’t put yourself in danger; you broke your promise," thinking she had almost lost this man, Lin Chuxia’s heart felt terribly heavy.

Seeing her eyes redden, Qin Yang became flustered, "At that time, I didn’t think much. It was almost a reflex. I’m sorry. I did have some confidence that nothing major would happen. Believe me..."

Seeing Lin Chuxia ignoring him, just looking at him with tearful eyes, Qin Yang’s explanations became disjointed.

Finally, at a loss for words, he leaned down and kissed her.

The kiss was delicate and lingering, eventually prying open her lips to weave a passionate intertwinement.

The long days of longing and worry spilled out in this instant as they expressed each other’s concerns.

Not just Qin Yang, but Lin Chuxia as well.

After what felt like an eternity, they finally ended the intimate kiss. Qin Yang rested his forehead against Lin Chuxia’s, his voice a bit hoarse.

"Wife, I was wrong. Forgive me this time, alright? I will be more careful next time. It really was just an accident."

Lin Chuxia did not speak but reached out to embrace his neck, holding him tight.

Resting her chin on his shoulder, inhaling his unique scent, she eventually let out a faint tone through her nose, "Hmm."

Joy erupted across Qin Yang’s face. He was really worried that his wife would come from a thousand miles away to berate him. He didn’t want her to worry, nor did he want her to feel that her words didn’t weigh on him.

His wife had forgiven him, she could understand him.

"Lin Chuxia..."

He joyfully looked over at her delicate face, which he had been too timid to look at squarely since her arrival.

Just as he remembered, even when angry, his wife was still so beautiful.

He couldn’t resist and leaned down to kiss her again.

Ever since he learned to kiss the last time, he became somewhat addicted to it.
