Just as the two were getting into the groove, Wang Xiaoqiang's phone rang—it was Jiang Wei calling. Receiving a call now was absolutely the most frustrating thing imaginable. He furrowed his brow and reluctantly lifted his hand off Zhou Qiping's body to pick up the phone and press the answer button... "Hello,"

"Hello, Little Qiang," Jiang Wei's voice came through, heavy with a sense of indebtedness... "I'm so sorry, really sorry. I might have done some things to upset you, and my uncle said some disrespectful words to you. Now, I truly want to apologize to you, and on behalf of my uncle as well..."

Wang Xiaoqiang interrupted her, coldly asking, "Your uncle is alright, isn't he?"

"Um... my uncle is fine, thanks to your treatment, he's now recovered..."

Wang Xiaoqiang immediately hit the end call button. Dropping the phone, he placed his hand back on Zhou Qiping's body.

...

On the other end of the phone, Jiang Wei, yet to finish speaking, anxiously looked at the phone that Wang Xiaoqiang had hung up on and said to her uncle, "He hung up..."

Hu Xue Ren's expression darkened as he expressed his regret, "Ah, it's all my fault, I was blind!"

Jiang Wei consoled him, "Uncle, don't be upset. For your illness, I'll try everything to get Jiang Feng to treat you..."

Hearing this, Hu Xue Ren was deeply touched and said, "Little Wei, that, that truly puts you in a difficult position..."

"Uncle, you shouldn't say that, you're making it sound like we're strangers. You've treated me just like your own daughter; doing this little bit for you is nothing," Jiang Wei said understandingly.

Hu Xue Ren looked relieved but then added, "Little Wei, how about this, let's wait for about ten days. If during these ten days, the pain in my body doesn't come back, then let's invite Little Qiang for a meal, and I'll apologize to him in person. Do you think that's okay...?"

Jiang Wei nodded, but said, "That would be fine, but I still need to contact him in advance. If we wait ten days before reaching out to him, it would seem like we're not sincere!"

Hu Xue Ren agreed completely, "Right, right, you're more thoughtful. Then I'll leave it to you, Little Wei..."

...

At the Gao Family's place.

Wang Xiaoqiang and Zhou Qiping were sitting in front of the dining table, facing a table laden with lavish dishes. Wang Xiaoqiang didn't hold back; he dug in heartily.

Physical activity in bed can be extremely draining, and now Wang Xiaoqiang was incredibly hungry, especially since the dishes Zhou Qiping had prepared were truly delicious and perfectly suited to Wang Xiaoqiang's taste.

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang enjoying his meal, Zhou Qiping seemed very pleased. After their intimate encounter, this young wife was glowing even more, her beauty radiant, with the flush of excitement still evident on her face. She smiled as she watched Wang Xiaoqiang eat and drink, serving him diligently by picking food for him and pouring wine for him.

The two of them seemed like a very loving couple.

After Wang Xiaoqiang had eaten and drunk his fill and belched contentedly, he suddenly looked up to find Zhou Qiping's affectionate and shy eyes gazing at him longingly, which he found very satisfying. Suddenly, as if remembering something, he said to Zhou Qiping, "Sister Ping, there's something I need to ask you."

"Eh, what is it, just tell me..."

"It's about, you know... you and Mayor Gao... right now... you two... are you still doing that thing?" Wang Xiaoqiang asked with hesitation.

"Eh..." Zhou Qiping appeared extremely uncomfortable and said, "No, Ziyi, he... he can't anymore... Recently, he hasn't come home to stay at all..."

"Ah, that's good..." Wang Xiaoqiang sighed with relief. Although being with someone else's wife was thrilling, since he had been with her, he couldn't allow anyone else to lay a finger on her.

"Don't worry, Little Qiang, I will keep myself for you. Even if Ziyi wants to be with me, I'll find reasons to refuse him. But I think, right now, he's avoiding me more than anything! He certainly wouldn't take the initiative to come to me for that..." Zhou Qiping said with absolute certainty.

Uh...

Wang Xiaoqiang gave Zhou Qiping a look and suddenly said, "Sister Ping, I've recently developed a medicine that can cure kidney deficiency and impotence. It's really miraculous. I'm thinking of giving this medicine to Mayor Gao..."

"Don't..."

Before Wang Xiaoqiang could finish, Zhou Qiping had already cried out in distress, "Please don't..."

Wang Xiaoqiang chuckled mischievously.

Zhou Qiping's face flushed with embarrassment as she explained, "Little Qiang, it's not that I'm heartless… Ever since I met you, you've been on my mind. Now, whenever I see Gao Ziyi, I feel disgusted. I've been married to him for so many years, and I've never liked him. He's so much older than me, he could be my father. But Little Qiang, from the first moment I saw you, I fell in love with you. From the first time you pinned me to the bed, not only did I not hate you, I was actually grateful to you. You made me find the feeling of being a woman, you brought me the happiness of being a woman. Now, without you, I don't know how I'm going to live on… Little Qiang, in the future, please visit me often,"

"Mhm!"

Wang Xiaoqiang nodded, understanding Zhou Qiping's pain. Marrying a man nearly twenty years older and living as a mismatched couple for over a decade, she had never truly experienced the essence of being a woman. Moreover, amidst a loveless marriage, her heart felt desolate.

In spirit and in body, she was unsatisfied. Now, this young woman had fallen in love with him, a love she could not extricate herself from. Although she may have behaved like a wanton woman in bed, Wang Xiaoqiang knew that she yearned even more for emotional love. She hoped Wang Xiaoqiang would visit her often, not merely to satisfy a physical hunger, but for a much deeper spiritual need...

In fact, if Zhou Qiping had been like those women who called him over just to fulfill a selfish desire, then Wang Xiaoqiang certainly wouldn't be sitting at the same table with her for a meal now.

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang nod in agreement, whether sincere or not, Zhou Qiping's heart blossomed with a trace of relief. The smile that spread across her lotus-like face was notably heartwarming.

...

Since Gao Ziyi and Gao Meimei were not at home, Wang Xiaoqiang secretly stayed at the Gao Family home for two days. Zhou Qiping was greatly delighted. She provided mountains and seas of delicacies for Wang Xiaoqiang at every meal and of course, did not skimp on the "extra servings" at night... attending to him with utmost care.

With plenty to eat and drink, and a fragrant body to hold at night, Wang Xiaoqiang's days were exceedingly comfortable, much like an ancient king.

Considering that Gao Ziyi was soon to return from out of town, that morning, under the reluctant gaze of Zhou Qiping, Wang Xiaoqiang left the Gao Family, driving back to his private villa...

To stay fit and keep his limbs agile, he never used the private elevator except when having guests. Since he didn't take the private elevator and instead chose to walk out from the underground parking lot, Wang Xiaoqiang noticed something odd—a girl curled up in front of the villa, pale-faced.

The girl was none other than Jiang Wei.

Wang Xiaoqiang stared at Jiang Wei in astonishment, seeing her with crossed arms, huddled up, and asked in surprise, "What are you doing here so early in the morning?"

Jiang Wei looked worn out, rubbed her eyes, and replied, "I've been waiting for you here all night…"

"What…" Wang Xiaoqiang couldn't quite believe it, but upon seeing Jiang Wei's pale, fatigued face, her beautiful eyes slightly swollen, with dark circles all too apparent, he couldn't help but believe her: "What are you trying to do?"

"You didn't answer your phone…" Jiang Wei said somewhat resentfully, "I had no choice but to wait for you here…"

In the past two days, Jiang Wei indeed made three calls to Wang Xiaoqiang. Once when he was in bed with Zhou Qiping, another when Zhou Qiping was giving Wang Xiaoqiang a massage, and the last time, Wang Xiaoqiang was in the bathroom and didn't hear the call, so he didn't answer. Of course, these were just objective reasons; the main reason was that he didn't want to answer!

"Sorry, I've been a bit busy these past two days…" Wang Xiaoqiang initially wanted to say, "What else is there for us to talk about?" but on seeing Jiang Wei's haggard face from staying up all night waiting for him, he felt a pang of compassion and changed his words: "Jiang Wei, why bother? Is there anything so important that you had to wait here all night for?"

Jiang Wei said, "I can't relax if I don't see you."

Wang Xiaoqiang, feeling unmoved by her words, said, "You're worried I'll find an excuse to leave and not treat your uncle, right?"

Jiang Wei nodded.

Wang Xiaoqiang opened the door and said, "Come on in."

He ushered Jiang Wei inside and heated up a cup of milk in the microwave to hand to her.

Jiang Wei felt a warmth in her heart and her nose tingled, tears swirling in her eyes. (To be continued.
