After uttering those words, Gu Nian wished she could bite off her own tongue.
Such a statement... really sounded ambiguous.
Gu Nian quickly composed herself, trying to gauge Fu Jingshen's expression, she spoke, "I can explain... do you want to listen?"
"Mm."
Fu Jingshen then started the engine, the corners of his mouth lifting in a smile. Her willingness to explain was a good sign.
"He still holds a grudge against me for sprinkling pepper powder in his underwear back then."
Fu Jingshen nodded upon hearing this, as expected.
Throughout his life, Jing Rui had everything go his way; indeed, he had never been dealt a blow, the only one he suffered was at the hands of Gu Nian.
"So, Jing Rui's interest in me was just a passing fancy... Moreover, I've already confessed about being married."
Gu Nian answered seriously and then pursed her lips, "But I haven't revealed that you are my husband, to avoid causing you unnecessary trouble."
