My wife sat up cross-legged and glared at me fiercely, making my back go cold before she slowly began, "Liao Fan, I've already gone along with your wife-swapping games. Even though I can't accept too much at once, since I've agreed to play along, I won't back out. I'll gradually try to explore more with you, as long as it makes you happy. I'm willing to change for you."
"I know, I know," I responded repeatedly.
My wife took a deep breath and continued, "I don't care whether what you said earlier was sincere or just testing me. I'm telling you my stance: I'll adjust my mindset about the swapping and try to go along with you as much as possible. But aside from the swapping, I won't accept any other man, and I definitely won't do anything inappropriate behind your back."
As she spoke, tears began to well up in her large, round eyes. I quickly pulled her into my arms, gently stroking her back while apologizing and comforting her.
My wife remained silent in my embrace, taking a long time to calm down.
"Look at you, getting angry so easily lately. Could it be early menopause?" I teased with a smile.
"You're so annoying," my wife said, sitting up and pinching my thigh hard. Seeing me grimace in pain, she couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"That's more like it. Happiness is what matters most. Look how beautiful you are when you smile," I said, playfully tapping her delicate nose.
My wife suddenly sighed, looking at me with a mix of helplessness and exasperation. Pouting, she said, "Husband, even though we're playing these wife-swapping games, I'm really not a casual woman. I have my principles and boundaries. At the very least, I can't let you suffer."
I couldn't help but laugh out loud. So, the main reason she refused to meet other men alone was because she was afraid I'd be at a disadvantage. My wife's attitude was both endearing and amusing, but it warmed my heart.
I playfully pinned her down and said with a grin, "What disadvantage? I'll take care of you first."
With that, I leaned in and kissed her red lips.
To my surprise, my wife pushed me away, rolled her eyes, and said, "I spent the whole day showing Liao Wen around the company today. I'm exhausted. Don't touch me tonight—try again another day."
"Fine, I'll go take a shower and sleep then," I grumbled reluctantly. Since she wasn't willing, I naturally wouldn't force her.
Just as I opened the bedroom door, Liao Wen emerged from the small bedroom almost at the same time, and we nearly bumped into each other.
"Bro, I was about to take a shower and go to bed. Are you heading out to shower too? You can go first," Liao Wen quickly offered.
"You go ahead. I'll go have a cigarette to perk myself up," I replied with a smile.
Liao Wen nodded sheepishly and headed into the bathroom.
I lit a cigarette, leaned back on the sofa, and my wife's words kept echoing in my ears.
I knew everything she said came from her truest thoughts. Though she might appear gentle on the surface, she was actually a very strong-willed person. If she said she wouldn't accept something, she truly meant it.
I had originally hoped something might happen between my wife and Liao Wen to help her loosen up, but now it seemed almost impossible.
Feeling a bit frustrated, I took out my phone, opened WeChat, and sent a message to Night's Prince, asking how things were progressing.
Not long after, Night's Prince sent over the chat records from today with my wife.
Perhaps because my wife had been busy showing Liao Wen around, she hadn't had much time during the day—there were hardly any messages. The few exchanges that did occur were timed right after she had finished her shower, all just casual pleasantries.
I frowned slightly. At this rate, when would my wife ever loosen up and accept the idea of a new exchange?
I sent another message urging him to speed things up a bit. Night's Prince replied immediately: "Bro, I only just added your wife the day before yesterday. We can't rush things too much. If I move too fast, she might think I'm a creep and block me. What then? I'll try to move as quickly as I can. Just wait for my good news, bro."
I knew he had a point—patience is a virtue, and I was being too hasty.
As I smoked and pondered, my gaze drifted to the bathroom door, and my thoughts turned back to Liao Wen. Even though my wife had made her stance clear, I couldn't let go of the idea. Relying solely on Night's Prince left me feeling uncertain. I needed to push from both sides to help my wife loosen up sooner.
Liao Wen spent at least half an hour in the bathroom before coming out. I chuckled to myself—no wonder he looked so fair and clean. He took his time showering, almost like a woman, soaking until his skin turned pale.
I smoked another cigarette and waited until the steam in the bathroom had mostly dissipated before getting up to take a shower and head to bed.
As I squeezed out some shower gel, I suddenly noticed that my wife's underwear hanging on the bath rack looked a bit crumpled. I couldn't help but frown.
My wife had a long-standing habit of washing her underwear right after her shower, smoothing it out, and hanging it neatly on the rack. It was never wrinkled.
Puzzled, I took her underwear down from the rack and examined it closely. There were faint traces of milky-white fluid on it. As a man, I knew exactly what that was.
After a moment's thought, I roughly understood what had happened and couldn't help but smile to myself.
Earlier, Liao Wen had spent over half an hour in the shower—turns out he was using his wife's panties to masturbate, even finishing on them. Afterward, he must have tried to clean up the evidence, scrubbing the panties clean, which is why they ended up looking all wrinkled.
Most likely, he was guilty and panicked, so he didn't wash them thoroughly enough—there were still plenty of traces left.
A thought crossed my mind, and I carefully hung the panties back exactly as they were, leaving them creased.
When I finished my shower and returned to the bedroom, my wife was already fast asleep. She must have been truly exhausted, so I didn't want to disturb her. I quietly got into bed, turned off the light, and went to sleep.
Early the next morning, I went back to Wang Di's office.
"Manager Wang, how did things go with what I asked you to do yesterday? Can your friend arrange to send some flowers?" I got straight to the point.
"I asked, how could I forget about your request? My friend has agreed and will bring them over when she comes into the city in a couple of days," Wang Di said with a smile.
"Don't wait a couple of days. How about this—give me your friend's address, and I'll take half a day off this afternoon to drive over and pick them up myself," I pleaded.
Wang Di looked at me with a meaningful gaze, her smile tinged with something odd, but in the end, she didn't say much. She gave me her friend's address and approved my leave.
As soon as work ended at noon, I didn't even bother eating and drove straight to the outskirts. Though it was called the suburbs, it was practically the rural area of Yuncheng.
Wang Di's friend was very warm-hearted. Without a word, she brought over a dozen pots of Epimedium from the greenhouse and loaded them into my trunk until it was completely full. She firmly refused to accept any payment, which made me feel quite embarrassed. I thanked her repeatedly before leaving.
