Loving With My Mind

They walked hand-in-hand for their hike the following day.

"Are you okay?" Zhao Mingzhe asked in a gentle tone.

She frowned back at him. "Should I not be okay?"

Suddenly, she stopped on her tracks. "Did you test yourself for HIV?" She had an accusing tone.

Zhao Mingzhe did not know if he could get her mad if she laughed. He was actually worried that she would not be okay to go hiking since he...but oh well, it seemed she is fine.

Last night, they actually had done something acceptable for a honeymoon, and he had been a little rough on her when dawn broke.

After the tiring activity, they cuddled like a real couple in love, and slept for awhile, before alarms blasted off to wake them up.

Even though they typically refused to get up, Zhao Mingzhe pushed himself to do so and to also convince his wife.

This is their last day for their trip in City M and their plane is ready to take off in the afternoon.

The view of the mountains and the ruins would be a pity to miss.

He chuckled anyway. "Are you going to get yourself tested now?" he teased.

"Why not? You're my first, but I'm not yours." she mocked.

Behind this tone of her voice, he saw disappointment in her eyes.

"Xiao Xin..." he tried to reach out with his hand.

"Zhao Mingzhe, are you gonna get mad if I insult your ex?" she suddenly asked.

He was initially taken aback by the question, but then his wide eyes became gentler.

He reached out to touch her face. "You're my wife. Only you could do it."

She frowned with a pout, then after a deep breath, she said, "I'm gonna get tested because...given I'd believe that you only did it with her before, but...how sure are you, that a beauty like her flying around the world, would have no one else?" She pursed her lips when she stopped talking. Waiting for his scolding.

She also tried to loosen his gripon her hand. She was ready to flee.

He looked at the scenery before them, gripping her hand tighter. She just blurted out one of the questions he had in his mind when Cynthia broke up with him a year ago. He was obviously in denial, and his mind would not accept her petty reason of transferring to the rival airline.

It was like his old wound was opened and salt had been rubbed into the flesh. However, his concerns are nothing compared to the ton of insecurities his new wife has, which hit him like an avalanche at times.

He looked down to see her worried face. He smiled. "When do you want to get tested?"

Han Yixin was shocked. "You're gonna get yourself tested?"

"Hmmn." he nodded.

She narrowed her eyes. "You do it first. If you're positive, then I'd get tested." she harrumphed.

He laughed really hard, then he pulled her closer to him so they could stare at the scenery while he embraced her from behind.

With his melodic voice, he whispered in her ear, "My wife, from now on, you'll be the only woman that I would touch. Let me love you."

She was moved, but she still chose to snicker. "So you've learned already? That was fast. Guess you needed s.e.x to facilitate your learning." She was mocking and teasing at the same time.

Instead of getting insulted and irritated, he embraced her tighter.

"So, you wanna reinforce the lesson tonight?" his voice meant a lot of things.

She blushed. "Pervert!" she whispered back.

He chuckled. "Alright, alright. We should get going. We should not miss our flight."

"We're returning to City B today?" she pouted.

"What? Don't wanna leave?"

She sighed. "It's so beautiful out here." She really looked disappointed.

He loosened his embrace and held her hand. "We'll just visit again. It's time to go to the airport."

She tugged onto his hand. "But we haven't packed our things yet."

He smiled back. "Don't worry about that. I also got your passport."

"Oh, okay." she dare not argue. This man is way ahead of her.

.

When they arrived at the airport, they checked in for an international flight. It seemed like they would not be using his jet this time.

He got their tickets and he held her hand as they went to board the plane.

She saw the boarding passes. She exclaimed, "We're going to-"

He kissed her to shut her up. Her voice was beginning to attract attention.

She brushed off the fact that he just kissed her. She was more excited for their destination.

She let out a subtle squeal and held onto his arm.

He chuckled as he gave the passes to the staff.

They got into first class and settled themselves in no time.

During their flight, attendants went to check on them and offered refreshments.

One of them seemed to recognize Zhao Mingzhe. She bowed with a fl.u.s.tered face. "C-CEO Zhao."

"Hmmn." Zhao Mingzhe nodded in recognition.

The attendant turned to look at the sleeping woman next to him. "This is..." she furrowed her brows.

He looked at the meddling attendant with a stern face. "Bianca, do you believe that I would get you fired if you manage to wake up my wife right now?"

She gasped. "Please, Sir. Spare me." she bowed repeatedly and went away.

Zhao Mingzhe frowned. He turned to his wife and brushed the hair on her face with his hand.

The attendant named Bianca went into the restroom. She needed to breathe.

Zhao Mingzhe is married! Does Cynthia know?

Bianca is Cynthia's best friend. At the time the CEO's wedding was broadcasted, Bianca was on her vacation in a remote island in the Pacific. Then afterwards, her best friend would not disclose how she failed to get back together with the CEO.

Bianca frowned as she contemplated. Her best friend is the most sought-after bachelorette she knew. How could the CEO marry a random woman with average looks and figure?

Then again, marriage is nothing. Even married men could change their mind. Right after their descent, she would convince Cynthia to not give up the fight easily. That sleeping woman is definitely no match to her.

If marriage is forever, then why do they still have divorce?
