Su Yan turned her head away in disgust, refusing to use the chopsticks he had touched.
She wouldn't use that, not if there might be his saliva on them…
"Marquis, I have no habit of sharing chopsticks while eating. You should eat your own food."
"Madame, you and I are already husband and wife. Always calling me 'Marquis,' don't you find it distant?"
"The Marquis is a person of status, and so am I.
To reflect our statuses, it is better to address each other respectfully."
"There is no need for such politeness between husband and wife. It's warmer to call each other 'husband' and 'wife'.
Moreover, status is essentially a nothingness.
Madame, to place such importance on it, could it be that you are a woman who admires vanity?"
Su Yan smiled, but her smile did not reach her eyes.
"Since the Marquis insists, then I will call you 'husband.'
However, some things, even if done well on the surface, still seem very fake.
Husband, I actually find you quite shameless."
