Chapter 73: Your husband is here

The second summer after Chen Xiang passed, she had lost a lot of weight. In Liao’s beastly words, even her mounds had almost shrunk.

But her spirit was particularly good, probably because she was learning and progressing every day, which gave her infinite courage and confidence. She smiled more and more, spoke to people without hunching her chest or lowering her head. Her eyes were bright, and she had a likable softness about her.

In mid-October, she took the exam to advance to the next level. She had to take exams in language, math, foreign language, and history and geography.

Liao Jun accompanied her, constantly saying along the way, “Don’t be nervous. Relax. It doesn’t matter if you don’t pass the exam. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Your husband is here, so don’t be afraid.”

Chen Xiang looked at the red envelope messages on the phone, as well as the lines of notes saying “Come on! Little sister-in-law!” She couldn’t help but smile. She replied with a few words: [Thank you.]

Liao Jun’s brothers were all very nice people. They never looked down on her rural background. During the Chinese New Year, when Liao Jun spent the New Year in town, those brothers came to find him on New Year’s Day, and they brought New Year gifts for Chen Xiang’s parents, grandmother, and even Chen Xiang and Chen Yang. That night, they all went out to eat and sing together, having a lively and enjoyable time until late before going home.

That was the happiest New Year Chen Xiang had ever had.

It was also the first New Year she had spent with Liao Jun after they got married.

Shortly after Chen Xiang finished her exams, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival. Liao Jun was still at Chen Xiang’s house. Chen Xiang’s grandmother even asked her if Liao Jun’s parents had died unexpectedly. Chen Xiang was shocked and quickly covered her grandmother’s mouth, explaining that it was just a strained relationship. Her grandmother urged her to find a solution, after all, they only had one son, and he never went home to reunite on holidays. She worried that Liao Jun’s parents would feel hurt.

Chen Xiang also wanted to persuade Liao Jun, but he didn’t like to talk about his parents. Whenever the topic was brought up, it made him unhappy, and the result was Chen Xiang being pinned down and nearly f*cked to death by him.

Chen Xiang’s exam results came out in December, but she wasn’t in a hurry to check them. It was Wang Zhaodi’s studious elder sister who checked the scores for her early. She excitedly called Chen Xiang, “Do you know how much you scored?”

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xiang smiled for a while. Liao Jun wiped the soup from the corners of her mouth with a tissue and put several peeled shrimp into her bowl. He asked her why she was smiling.

Chen Xiang said, “The results are out. I scored 562.”

Liao Jun exclaimed, then took out his phone and started calling Liang Yuan and the others, “My wife’s results are out! Hahaha! Guess how much! 562! f*ck your mother! Envy us! Jealous! Hahaha…”

Chen Xiang: “…”

After a full ten minutes, Liao Jun was still on the phone, now calling even the assistant manager, his laughter becoming more arrogant, “My wife’s results are out! Hahaha! 562! You dumbass, you’ll never score this high in your life! Envy us! Jealous! f*ck your mother hahaha…”

Chen Xiang: “…”
