My Mysterious Husband

Chapter 254 Giving Birth to a Sibling

Kerry shrugged sardonically and said, “We are all adults. Why pretend to be pure?”

It was only then Venus realized what exercise Kerry was talking about. Her face turned red in aninstant. “My brother is still here. Why does Kerry say such a shameless thing?” Venus thought.

Ashamed and angry, Venus gave Kerry a pinch at the waist. Then Kerry winced in pain and said,“Stop!I won’t say that anymore.”

“Hum!” Venus snorted.

Xiran Xiao recovered from the shock and drank a mouthful of soup to moisten her throat. She smiledevilly and said, “Kerry, as you said, Venus’s injury is not recovered yet. You’d better control yourself. Doyou see the dark circles under her eyes?”

“You don’t have to worry about it.” Kerry said.

“I’m not worried about you. I’m worried about Venus. She is a delicate flower…oooooo…”Xiran said.But before Xiran could finish what she wanted to say, Venus covered her mouth across the table. “Nomore talking. I’m still a baby.” Venus said, blushing.

Xiran pushed Venus’s hand away and laughed. “Venus, don’t you feel ashamed to say that? You arealready a mother.”

“Even if I am a mother, I am as pure as a baby in mind. Can you veterans give me a break?” Venusquibbled shamelessly.

Xiran was defeated by Venus’s shamelessness. “OK.” Xiran said.

Tianye Mu shook his head with a smile. Then something occurred to him and he said, “Let’s payrespects to our parents in a couple of days.”

Venus became seriously immediately and said, “OK.”

Tianye took a look at Kerry sitting opposite him and asked casually, “Mr. Ye, why don’t you take yourson to pay respects to his grandparents?”

After Tianye said that, Kerry’s face became clouded. The atmosphere became a little awkward. Tianyeand Xiran were confused. They wondered what’s wrong with Kerry. Only Venus knew about thescandal of Kerry’s family. When she was about to say “forget it”, Kerry said “I will.”

Tianye knew Kerry’s parents died in an accident many years ago, but he didn’t know what’s going on tomake Kerry react like that. Tianye is not a curious person, however. Everyone has his own secret. It’sbetter not to ask too many questions.

……

Just as Tianye expected before, Kerry’s parents were buried in a small hill. As time goes by, the graveis covered with weeds.

Kerry wiped his father’s tombstone with a handkerchief quietly. Then the elegiac address and a photoappeared. Kerry’s father looks gentle and handsome, somewhat similar to Kerry.

When Henry and other people were about to pull out the weeds, Kerry said, “That’s OK. My father waslonely during his lifetime, and these years he had only these weeds with him, so keep them.”

Clearing a clean place in front of the gravestone, Kerry knelt down. Then he waved to Venus andPingan, saying, “Come here.”

Then the three of then knelt in front of the gravestone. As Kerry burned paper money, he said, “Dad,I’m coming to see you.”

Venus was calm. Perhaps because she had never had any contact with Kerry’s father, she had littleaffection for him, but more respect.

“Dad, this is Venus, my wife. And this is Pingan, your grandson. I bring them here to see you. Kevinhas gone to study in Europe. He is very well, too. You needn’t worry. Yehuang Group is also doingwell…”

Kerry said as if he’s giving his father a year-end summary. From work to life, he spoke in a trivial andmeticulous way.

In fact, after so many years, there’s not much sadness left in Kerry’s heart.

After kneeling for more than ten minutes, Kerry’s year-end summary came to an end. “Dad, I haveburned a lot of paper money to you. If you use it up, just tell me about it in my dream and I will bringyou more. It’s cold and you should buy some more clothes.” Kerry said.

After hearing that, Venus almost laughed out loud.

“Well, just assume there are four seasons in the hell. However, if there is reincarnation, Kerry’s fathermust have reincarnated as he had died long ago.” Venus thought.

After pressing Pingan’s head to give three kowtows, Kerry picked Pingan up. Then they walked to theother end of the hill. Kerry’s father and mother ended up in such a mess that Kerry didn’t bury themtogether. That’s what his father’s wish.

Kerry’s mother’s grave is even more desolate. The sun and the wind had made the tomb cave in as flatas the ground, and only the stone tablet could prove that a man had been buried there.

Kerry’s facial expression was colder than the winter northwest wind. Thanks to his mother, he had avery dark youth. He would not have come if it had not been for the grace she gave birth to him.

Henry put the offerings one by one in order. After standing for a long time, Kerry said, “Mom, I bring mywife and son to see you.” Without kneeling, Kerry, Venus and Pingan made three bows and left.

That day the wind on the hill whimpered all day like a woman’s lament.

Ever since Venus vowed to lose weight, she had been working out in the gym for two hours everyafternoon.

Why didn’t she go outside to excise? Because the haze is too heavy and it’s not good for health.

When Kerry said that Venus should go to attend the big annual meeting of the company at the end ofthe year, Venus was more determined to lose weight.

She wanted to appear in perfect shape and kill others’ covetous thoughts in the cradle.

Except for morning and noon meals, Venus only drank water at night. With effective exercise, she didlose some weight within a week. At least her face was a little smaller.

However, this was bitter to Kerry. When Kerry wanted to have intimacy with Venus after he took ashower, Venus fell asleep, tired and hungry. Kerry didn’t have the heart to wake her up, so he couldonly tuck her in and sleep disappointedly.

Kerry could bear it for the first four days. On the fifth or sixth days, Kerry protested. He is young and fullof energy. With such a beautiful wife in his arms, he felt it’s oppressed that he couldn’t have intimacywith her. So over the breakfast, Kerry said, “You have a day off today. I’ll take you to the company.”

“No.” Venus refused him directly.

“Why? Don’t like the people in the design department?” Kerry asked.

“Have you forgotten that you told them I was going to study abroad when I left the company? I don’tlook like a person who come back from studying abroad if I go to the company with such a fat body. I’llgo back to the company when my hair grow a little and I lose some weight.” Venus said.

“You’re fine now. Don’t be so hard on yourself. It hurts me to see you like this.” Kerry said helplessly.

Venus grinned and said, “Women need to be hard on themselves, or others will be hard on them.Besides, my husband is so good-looking and rich. There are so many women want to marry you. I can’tgive them such a chance.”

After hearing that, Kerry was happy, because Venus’s words mean that she values him.

Then Kerry leaned forward and whispered in her ear, “If you’re really nice to me, don’t go to sleep soearly tonight.”

Venus’s face blushed immediately. It suddenly occurred to her that Kerry hadn’t had sex with her formany days. No wonder he looked spiritless.

“OK.” Venus lowered her head down and said.

Seeing her blushing face, Kerry really wanted to carry her to the room. But there’s an importantmeeting that he needed to attend.

Touching her waist, Kerry put down the chopsticks and said, “I’m going to work. Wait for me to returnhome.”

Venus nodded.

With something to look forward to, time passed very slowly. When it was finally time to get off work,Kerry skipped all the social engagements and rushed home.

There was no sign of Venus in the living room or dining room. In the children’s room, John and Henrywere playing with Pingan.

“Where is Venus?” Kerry asked.

“She should be in the bedroom. I don’t see her coming down.” John said.

Leaving his son behind, Kerry turned and raced up to the second floor. As soon as he pushed the dooropen, his blood boiled.

In the dim light, rose petals were spread all over the floor. There was a faint smell of flowers in the airand a splash of water in the bathroom. Venus was bathing.

Kerry took off his coat, suit and tie and turned up the air conditioner a few degrees. The he walked intothe bathroom naked.

Well, he hadn’t been treated like that for a long time.

“Ah-Why you come in? No, get out…“ Venus said.

“Let’s take a shower together.” Kerry said.novelbin
