Chapter 444: Clever

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation       Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Zi was truly exhausted. Tonight, they had made love three times already, each time more intense than the last. It had left her aching slightly. She reached behind her, pressing against the man’s slowly moving leg. His thick arousal paused for a moment before reluctantly withdrawing from her.

His large hand still held her slender waist, his burning gaze falling on her rounded buttocks. Even without eyes on her back, she could feel his stare. Recalling his earlier caresses, she knew her rear must be enticingly flushed and tender.

Gu Zi knew he probably wanted to continue, but he didn’t. In their lovemaking, he always considered her teelings.

Su Shen had once said that in the throes of passion, it wasn’t enough for him to be the only one satisfied. He preferred to guide her to climax, to share the wonderful experience of lovemaking. Of course, sometimes he would lose control, becoming a bit rough, like tonight. It was truly thrilling.

Gu Zi, leaning on his hand, turned to face him. Despite her fatigue, she managed to punch him in the chest. This husband of hers was up to no good, she had told him to discuss matters with her, yet he had tricked her into bed, only informing her, “We’ll talk after,” just before he entered her.

He didn’t give her a chance to speak, instead, he had her again and again. Although she quite enjoyed it, she still wanted to tease him.

Lately, their factory had been busy, and they hadn’t made love properly in a while. But did he really have to abandon all shame? Honestly.

Su Shen’s chest took a few hits, but he didn’t attempt to block her small fists. Given her strength, it felt more like a tickle to him. Instead, he gently and affectionately lifted her, carrying her into the bathroom in a few strides. He placed her in the bathtub, turned on the water heater, and started filling the tub. Then he joined her, holding her as he bathed her and cleaned her up.

Gu Zi thought he had quite a thick skin, but he was indeed patient. Each time he bathed her, he would give her a massage. She was cared for so comfortably that she could fall asleep in the tub. It wasn’t until he carried her back to bed that she woke up in a daze, her anger at him gone.

She snuggled into Su Shen’s arms and said, “I have to tell you about what happened in the boiler room today. I saw Ah Zhuang, one of the pig farm workers, putting something in the hot water that Aunt Yang was going to serve everyone. I wasn’t sure, so I didn’t expose him. Instead, I tricked Ah Zhuang into drinking a ladle of the water he had tampered with. I haven’t found any evidence yet…”

Gu Zi recounted the day’s events in great detail, a flicker of surprise flashing in Su Shen’s eyes as he listened. It wasn’t that he doubted Gu Zi’s words, but rather, he hadn’t expected the revelation. No wonder Ah Zhuang had suddenly claimed to have a stomachache today; he had brought it upon himself.

Su Shen said to Gu Zi, “As clever as you are, your subtle handling of the situation was correct. I believe we should be able to find evidence in the town.”

Gu Zi nodded in agreement, replying, “I think so too. Isn’t tomorrow Saturday? We need to take the children for a check-up in the city. While I’m at the hospital, you can take the water sample I gave you to the city’s chemistry institute. Find someone to help test the substance in the water to see if we can identify the type of drug.”

When Gu Zi had dealt with the problematic water, she hadn’t poured it all away. Instead, she had filled a glass bottle with it. If they could analyze its contents, it would save them a lot of trouble.

Upon hearing this, Su Shen laughed, “Are you so sure I have connections in the chemistry institute?”

Gu Zi raised an eyebrow, “I remember Gu Shan mentioning that Deputy Chief

He’s wife is from the chemistry institute. You’re quite close with Uncle He and Aunt He. Even if you don’t have direct connections at the institute, you could ask Aunt He for help, right?”

Su Shen ruffled her hair, his laughter filled with affection, “My wife is indeed very clever! Alright, let’s get some sleep.”

Indeed, they would need Aunt He’s help with this matter. Once they identified the drug, they could pass through the town on their way back and possibly pinpoint the store where Ah Zhuang had bought the drug. Ah Zhuang, thinking no one knew of his plan, wouldn’t have gone far to buy the drug. It was likely he had purchased it in the town itself.

Gu Zi nodded, curling up in his arms and closing her eyes. Soon, her breathing became soft and steady, her sleeping face serene and adorable.

Once Su Shen was sure she was asleep, he got up to change his clothes. He tucked her in before heading back to the pig farm overnight, ensuring he would have time to accompany them to the city the next morning.

Early the next day, before Gu Zi had even woken up, the voice of their second child drifted in from outside the door, “Mom, breakfast is ready! Take your time getting ready, we’ll eat together. The steamed dumplings are really

delicious!”

Outside the door, their eldest child stood holding their little sister, watching their second child with a cold gaze. This kid had some nerve; if they didn’t know better, they would think he had made breakfast himself..
