Boom!
Wu Xia's head buzzed.
He couldn't believe that the always gentle and shy Sister-in-law would say such a thing.
"Xia, your family has done so much for me, and I have nothing with which to repay you,"
"This is what I owe you, and I must repay it!"
Lin Jiao looked at Wu Xia with tears streaming down her face, "You're in so much pain right now, let me help you first, okay?"
Wu Xia's whole body trembled.
He could clearly feel that it took a tremendous amount of courage for Lin Jiao to say this, after a great internal struggle.
He had felt it since the morning at home.
"Sister-in-law, I..."
Wu Xia wanted to refuse, wanted to comfort Lin Jiao and ease her emotions, but Lin Jiao directly kissed his mouth.
Boom!
At that moment, Wu Xia's mind went blank.
Looking at Lin Jiao with her eyes closed, passionately seeking, Wu Xia's heart grew hot.
Just then, heavy rain poured down.
They quickly let go of each other, and Wu Xia immediately found a hotel to settle down in.
Entering the room, both of them seemed a bit constrained.
Especially after entering the room and seeing the bed, as well as the transparent glass bathroom, they were momentarily at a loss and awkwardly stood there.
In the end, it was Wu Xia who broke the silence first, "Sister-in-law, you should take a shower first, don't catch a cold."
Lin Jiao's face turned crimson, and she shyly lowered her head, "Let's shower together!"
Boom!
Wu Xia's whole body jerked, his blood rushing to his head.
And there, in front of him, Lin Jiao had already stripped off her clothes and stood there naked.
Her glistening body, suffused with a rosy glow, was like an exquisite piece of art.
Particularly, Lin Jiao's shyness, with one hand across her chest and the other below her navel, was the epitome of temptation.
"Gulp!"
Wu Xia, already consumed by thirst, now found his mouth dry and his blood boiling.
Lin Jiao usually dressed very conservatively in loose clothes, so Wu Xia never imagined that Lin Jiao could have such a good figure.
In particular, her full and round breasts stood high, a perfect proportion to her body.
Moreover, when Lin Jiao reached to turn on the water, the sight of her tender, indented nipples was every man's dream.
The shower slowly began to emit hot water, and the steam started to rise, shrouding everything in a misty haze.
"What are you dawdling for? Come on in, don't catch a cold!"
Lin Jiao's bashful voice came through; she didn't even dare to turn around.
Wu Xia struggled to control himself, clinging to the last shred of reason.
"Sister-in-law, I know you want to repay us, but I can't harm you!"
He was very clear in his heart that Lin Jiao was doing all this to leave the Wu Family without any regrets and remarry.
But Wu Xia vividly remembered Zhou Fang's words; if Lin Jiao remained a virgin, she could easily remarry into a good family, but if he took her first time, any future in-laws would look down on her.
Such were the secular views of country folk, and Wu Xia couldn't take responsibility for Lin Jiao; he couldn't harm her.
Lin Jiao's body shook fiercely, and she suddenly turned around, her eyes moist as she looked at Wu Xia, "Do you think I'm not good enough for you?"
Wu Xia's face turned pale with shock; he hadn't expected Lin Jiao to think this way and quickly shook his head, "Sister-in-law, that's not what I mean, it's me, it's all my fault."
"Xia, I don't mind you being with Sister-in-law," she sobbed, "just as long as you give me your first time, I will pretend to know nothing."
With tears in her eyes, Lin Jiao looked at Wu Xia, her voice choked with emotion, "If you're willing to marry me, I will marry you. If not, I have no regrets and will leave the Wu Family to marry someone else in peace."
Wu Xia's heart was a complex tapestry of emotions.
Even though Lin Jiao said she didn't mind, being under the same roof for a long time would inevitably lead to conflicts.
Moreover, given his current situation and remembering the scene with Du Lijuan from yesterday, he didn't want Lin Jiao to experience such pain.
Not to mention the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox inside him that called him 'husband', he couldn't predict what would happen in the future.
He simply couldn't take responsibility for Lin Jiao!
"Second Sister-in-law, you don't have to do this for me! It's not worth it!" Wu Xia replied shakily, "Calm down, we're family. There's no need for you to repay me like this!"
"You have a long life ahead of you. Keeping your virginity, you can still find a good family to marry into!"
No matter how much it hurt, he couldn't ruin Lin Jiao's life.
"Heh!" Lin Jiao gave a hollow laugh, her eyes bloodshot, tears streaming uncontrollably.
"A good family?"
"Do you know what they say about me outside?"
"They call me a disaster, a husband killer. Who else would dare to have me?"
"Even my own parents despise me. They would rather see me marry Chen Ergou and curse him to death to rid the world of evil!"
Lin Jiao's emotions started to crumble. As she spoke, she walked toward Wu Xia.
"Tell me, what future can I possibly have in this life?"
So close to him, Lin Jiao's body fragrance mixed with a milky scent assaulted Wu Xia's senses.
She glared at Wu Xia with a look of deep resentment, "Am I really that bad? Even in your condition, you still don't want to give me a chance?"
"Sister-in-law, it's not like that, I truly want what's best for you... Ah..."
Before Wu Xia could finish, Lin Jiao grabbed his hardness.
"Xia, no matter what you say, I've made up my mind. If you don't accept my first time, I'll have no choice but to go to Wu Tie and atone."
Boom!
Wu Xia hadn't expected Lin Jiao to be so impulsive.
But putting himself in her shoes, a woman who lost her husband just after marriage, despised by her own family, forced to stay in a home without her husband, surrounded by rumors every day, it was difficult for her to find the courage to live on.
Wu Xia steeled his resolve and suddenly embraced Lin Jiao's waist, pulling her tightly into his arms.
"Second Sister-in-law, from now on you're my, Wu Xia's, woman. I, Wu Xia, will take responsibility for you and never let you be hurt again!"
Having said that, he kissed her ardently.
Lin Jiao's body completely softened, and though her eyes still shed tears, they were now tears of happiness.
Bang, bang, bang!
Suddenly, there was a rapid knocking at the door.
"Open up, it's the police. We're doing a room check!"
Boom!
The two of them split apart as if shocked by electricity, Lin Jiao hurriedly picking up her soaked clothing to put on.
Wu Xia's expression grew extremely dark because he had already sensed that the police officer outside was Zhang Lin.
This was the second time today this woman had disrupted his affairs.
Rage instantly ignited in his chest.
"Sister-in-law, it's okay. Go take a bath and get some rest in bed. I'll handle this," he said in a deep voice to Lin Jiao. Casually casting a barrier Formation to block everything out, he then pushed the door open and walked out.
He was determined to make Zhang Lin pay for her ignorant actions!
