Rebirth handbook - Chapter 7
The phone made a buzzing sound on the bed, and a beautiful white hand picked up the phone and clicked on the message displayed. After reading the message about He Xianyang’s whereabouts in the past two days, Chang Manjing casually wiped her hair and deleted the message casually. After exiting the messages interface, a little person in a red skirt appeared on the wallpaper. His hair had been well taken care of, his hair bangs were trimmed, his thin face, and eyes had become bigger after he had cut his long hair. He looked so cute. There was no smile on his face but there was still a kind of strange cuteness. The only flaw in the beauty was the scar from the corner of his right eye to the arch of his brow, destroying the weak and delicate temperament. Scars, on different people, could portray very different feelings. The boy of this age had such a good face from his parents’ genes. Even if he wore a girl’s skirt, he showed no sense of disobedience.
A little smile appeared on Chang Manjing’s face, and she poked the thin face on the wallpaper. He Weiming was really obedient. He didn’t resist at all whatever she asked him to do. What was even more amazing was that even she couldn’t tell whether the person was willing or not. Chang Manjing’s temptation was of no use at all, because He Weiming was like a baby who wouldn’t resist.
Before he showed his sharp claws, she would at least be able to appreciate this well-behaved look for a long time.
“Hey.” The door was knocked, and He Xianyang’s gentle voice outside the door followed, “Manjing, are you asleep?” The smile on Chang Manjing’s face disappeared. She stood by the bed for a while, then took a book on the shelf and opened the door.
“What’s up?”
He Xianyang saw Chang Manjing wearing a nightgown behind the door. Her hair was moist, and his eyes darkened. Chang Manjing was indeed a very good-looking woman, but it was a pity that He Xianyang loved the kind of delicate and weak women who needed to depend on him in life. Chang Manjing’s appearance suited his taste, but unfortunately she was too arrogant and strong to be completely controlled by others.
“The company has been busy recently. We haven’t slept together for a long time. Let’s go to bed together tonight and have a good chat.” He Xianyang held the door and looked at Chang Manjing with a smile, and his voice became lower and lower as he approached. The two had their own rooms. After sleeping together during the newly-wed period they then slowly separated into two rooms. At first, it was because He Xianyang said that he was busy with work. He often had to bring work back, and stayed up until midnight, and feared that it might interrupt Chang Manjing’s rest. They separated into two rooms, and only slept together occasionally.
But now, Chang Manjing couldn’t bear to sleep with this disgusting person at all.
So she raised her eyebrows, unceremoniously picked up the book in her hand and patted him on the face, “Sorry, I don’t have time tonight. I’m busy being a good mother. I’ll go and tell Weiming a bedtime story. You can go to bed by yourself.”
He Xianyang frowned and touched his nose. Chang Manjing looked surprised and said, “What’s wrong, did I hurt you?” Then, before He Xianyang said it was okay, she frowned and said first, “You look so painful when patted with a book. Okay, didn’t I say that I’m in a bad mood these days. So don’t annoy me anymore. “
Even if her tone was not polite, He Xianyang still maintained a gentle expression. As if he was afraid of her being angry, he said with a good temper: “Manjing, I know you are in a bad mood, but I am your husband and I hope to share a little bit of your pain. Let’s talk about it. Weiming is also twelve years old. Why would such an old child need you to tell him stories specifically.”
“I want to experience the feeling of being a mother, isn’t it okay?!” Chang Manjing waved annoyedly, “Okay, go to sleep by yourself. I will take Weiming tomorrow to my brother’s place. I don’t have time to chat with you.”
After speaking, she closed the door, walked past He Xianyang and entered He Weiming’s room. When her figure disappeared, the gentle expression on He Xianyang’s face turned cold. Chang Manjing used to be just arrogant, but these days, she had become more and more distracted from him. Whether it was a self-conscious decision or such an attitude that seemed to like a superior to others, He Xianyang was very unhappy. After all, he wanted to hold her, but he didn’t really want to serve her like a slave.
With a sneer, He Xianyang returned to his room. Chang Manjing, who closed the door of He Weiming’s room, smiled coldly. In her last life, when she married He Xianyang, she changed her temper for him, and she greeted He Xianyang’s mother who couldn’t see anywhere beyond her nose. She had never been wronged since she was a child, but she suffered due to He Xianyang’s parents. When she was wronged, she was worried that He Xianyang wouldn’t be able to do anything. She didn’t say anything. Even if it was He Xianyang, she restrained her emotions. She changed herself so much. But her concession changed, it was He Xianyang who later revealed his true colors, and said annoyingly, “I can’t stand your arrogant ‘young lady’s’ temper.”
How ridiculous she was in her last life? Very well, in this life, she would let He Xianyang know how bad her so-called lady’s temper was.
Chang Manjing turned around and saw He Weiming sitting at the desk and reading. He changed into a new set of pajamas and sat there barefoot. The floor-to-ceiling windows on the balcony were not closed, the moonlight came in from the wide open windows, as the curtains blew lightly. There was a quiet atmosphere in this room, and Chang Manjing’s tense and angry mood slowly eased. She walked to He Weiming, put the “Little Prince” book in her hand on the desk, and looked at what he was immersed in.
“Formulas? Isn’t this a third year course? I remember that you are a first year student?” Chang Manjing rubbed He Weiming’s thin and soft hair, “You are smart and hardworking. Go to bed early today. I will take you to see grandpa and uncle tomorrow.”
“Do you know that if you go to bed late, you will not grow taller.” Chang Manjing said.
He Weiming closed the book without making a sound. Let alone resisting, he never expressed his unwillingness. He went to the bed and lay down on the thin blanket.
