“This is easy, isn’t it!” Lin Ning leaned to the side and watched the washer drum spin at high speed.

“I’ll go watch some TV first~”

She skipped into the living room and sat on the sofa to watch TV.

“All done?” Su Shui looked at her. He’d thought this young miss had come to ask for help.

“Of course. It was so simple~” Lin Ning patted her chest and spoke proudly, looking all, I’m amazing.

Su Shui looked at how confident she was, but still felt uneasy.

“I’m going to the bathroom~”

After turning the corner, Su Shui headed into the laundry room.

The moment he walked in, he saw the washing machine spitting bubbles out everywhere.

“Holy crap, how much detergent did she pour in?!”

Su Shui hurriedly turned off the washer and pulled out the clothes, which were wrapped up tight in foam.

He rinsed the foam clean, washed out the machine, then put the clothes back in and added the proper amount of detergent.

“That should do it~”

…………

……

“Why’d going to the bathroom take so long~”

“Mm, constipation~”

“Oh right, Su Shui, I cooked the rice just now! Making food doesn’t seem that hard either~” Lin Ning said happily.

“Ow, honey, I need to use the bathroom again~”

Su Shui clutched his stomach and slipped into the kitchen. Sure enough, the rice cooker had already started cooking.

Water was already spilling over the rim. Su Shui quickly cut the power.

The moment he opened the lid, he saw a pot full of water with not even half a bowl of rice in it.

“Yep, still my job~” Su Shui grumbled as he poured the water out and started over.

“If you keep cleaning up after her like this, she’ll never learn how to do housework.” Su Qing held a cup of water and stood to the side, watching Su Shui bustle around.

“I never planned on making her learn,” Su Shui said softly. “I’m here to take care of her anyway. Compared to learning chores, I’d much rather not see her upset~”

“Alright then~” Su Qing sat down on the sofa and watched TV with Lin Ning.

“That should do it~”

…………

……

“Su Shui, weren’t you constipated? Why are you going so often~”

Lin Ning looked at Su Shui making trip after trip to the “bathroom” and asked in confusion.

“Maybe... I’ve got constipation and diarrhea at the same time~”

“That’s really amazing. Shouldn’t you go to the hospital?”

“No need, no need~” Su Shui shook his head like crazy, scared Lin Ning might really drag him to the hospital.

“Oh right, I hung the clothes up already. Housework is actually pretty fun~” Lin Ning looked at him with expectant eyes.

Su Shui looked at Lin Ning, whose eyes were sparkling, and gently patted her head.

“You did great~”

“Hehe~”

Lin Ning’s eyes curved into little crescents as she smiled. Happily, she said to Su Shui, “Then I’ll help you with the housework from now on~”

“No, absolutely not!” Su Shui nearly jumped up. Good lord, if she helped, wouldn’t that just mean doing every chore twice?

“What, you really don’t want me doing housework with you? Su Qing can do it, but I can’t?” Lin Ning stared at Su Shui without blinking. Cold sweat slid down his forehead.

“No, honey, housework means water, detergent, soap, all that stuff every day. Your little hands can’t take that~ They’re so soft. How could I bear it~”

As he spoke, Su Shui took Lin Ning’s small hand in his.

He lifted it to his nose and took a deep breath. “Smells so good!”

“Honestly~” Blushing, Lin Ning lightly punched him twice. “You smooth talker~”

Su Shui went with the motion and flopped onto the sofa, clutching his chest. “Ow~ Critically wounded~ I can’t get up without a kiss~”

“You pervert~”

Lin Ning lightly brushed her hair aside and bent down. “Mua~”

“Hehe, one back at you~”

Grinning wide, Su Shui planted a loud smack on Lin Ning’s cheek. She wiped her face with the back of her hand in disgust.

“So gross~”

“You’re disgusted by me?!” Su Shui hugged Lin Ning and started nibbling at her face. “Was that wrong or not?!”

“Not wrong!” Lin Ning looked at Su Shui with flushed cheeks and eyes soft as silk.

“Oh ho, you little temptress~ Just watch how I punish—”

Before Su Shui could finish, a frying pan smacked into his face and sent him flying.

“Home run!” Su Qing looked expressionlessly at Su Shui, who had collapsed in the corner. “Sister Ning, no need to thank me. I came to save you!”

“Ha, haha.” Lin Ning laughed stiffly, but inside she was exploding. You little brat! If you hadn’t interrupted, you’d probably be an aunt by now!

…………

……

Sturdy as he was, classmate Su Shui only stayed unconscious on the floor for a short ten minutes before slowly climbing back up.

“Ow, my head hurts, my head hurts~”

In just the two days since Su Qing came home, Su Shui had no idea how many injuries he’d taken. He was already starting to get used to pain.

“Do you maybe want to go check the clothes Sister Ning hung on the balcony?”

“Oh, right~” Only then did Su Shui remember what had just happened.

“I’m going to the balcony to get some air~” Su Shui knew full well he couldn’t keep using the same excuse. After all, the balcony and the bathroom were in opposite directions.

“Okay. Is your head alright?” Lin Ning gently touched his head.

“Hiss~ It hurts!”

“It hurts? I’ll blow on it for you~”

Seeing Su Shui and Lin Ning about to start showing off their love again, Su Qing quickly dragged Su Shui toward the balcony.

“I’ll take him out there so he can clear his head~”

…………

……

“Hanging clothes shouldn’t go wrong, right~”

“You should still go look. It’ll open your eyes.” Su Qing dragged him to the balcony.

The moment they got there, Su Shui saw that his shorts and T-shirt had been clipped together. She had clearly washed a pair of socks too, but there was no sign of them.

“What kind of logic leads to hanging clothes like this?”

“Maybe she couldn’t find another hanger?”

As Su Shui and Su Qing re-hung the clothes, they brainstormed what exactly Lin Ning’s thought process had been.

“Bro, I think I found your socks...”

Silently, Su Qing pulled a pair of socks out from one pant leg.

“Alright. Spectacular, really!”

…………

……

When they walked back into the living room, they saw Lin Ning standing there with a kitchen knife in hand.

Seeing that scene, Su Shui took a deep breath. Short run-up, then kneel~

The floor really had been wiped clean. Su Shui slid all the way to Lin Ning’s feet.

He hugged her thigh and said to her with deep feeling,

“Honey, I know secretly spending on gacha is wrong, but you have to stay calm! I haven’t lived enough yet. I haven’t seen our child be born and grow up! I want to live until I die!”

“What are you doing?” Lin Ning looked at him. “I just wanted to try making a meal...”

“Haha~” Su Shui patted his knees. “I was just joking...”

He turned and tried to run.

“Get back here!” Lin Ning pointed the kitchen knife at him, then pointed to the spot in front of her.

“Hehe~” Su Shui obediently knelt in front of her and hugged her leg. “I won’t dare do it again~”

“Sigh. If you keep recklessly spending on gacha, I’m cutting off your allowance!”

“Yes! I promise I’ll spend rationally from now on!”

Su Shui gave a salute and looked up at his wife with a grin.

“Alright, get up~”

“No need. I’ll reflect a little longer~”

Su Shui realized that from this angle, he could vaguely see his wife’s panties~

“The purple pair! Seriously, why is this making my heart race more than looking directly ever did~”
