MY UNKNOWN HUSBAND, VOLUME 2 - Season 4 Episode 62

John neither used WeChat or Alipay, nor did he bring any cash with him. Knowing this, Nina took out her mobile phone and was about to pay.

“We’ll buy them tomorrow,” John said, stopping Nina.

He would not allow his wife to pay for the things he intended to buy for her.

He was not going to lose face like that. “Set them aside, and don’t let anyone else touch them. I’ll come to buy them tomorrow.” Hearing John’s words, the cashier simply nodded and did not say anything.

“Thank you,” John said. Nina put her phone away, and the two of them left the store hand in hand.

On their way back, Nina asked, “Why did you give me the principal card?”

“Because I want to. And why did you freeze it?” John asked.

“I want to leave you some money in case you go bankrupt one day,” Nina answered bluntly.

John turned his head at her, speechless.

To this day, she was still thinking that he would go bankrupt someday.

“I’ve never seen a CEO who comes to work late and leaves early.” Nina sighed and shook her head.

All the things that happened in the past kept rolling in her mind.

She understood that it was natural for men to get an erection in the morning. Other men calmed down by themselves, but John was different. He needed someone to help him calm down.

John let go of Nina’s hand and wrapped his arm around her waist. He pulled her close until their sides were pressed together. With a faint smile on his lips, he asked, “Is it my fault then?”

“Are you trying to put the blame on me?” Nina said and rolled her eyes.

“You’re the one who always asks me not to leave,” John whispered in Nina’s ear and patted her waist gently.

This time, Nina was the one who was speechless.

Her husband was so shameless.

He had always been the one to take the initiative, taking advantage of the fact that she could not resist him.

“And what about leaving work early? Do I make you do that, too?” Nina playfully elbowed John on the side.

“No,” John answered, giggling. “But I do that because of you.”

Nina just smiled and quit arguing.

They walked back to Nina’s apartment. When they arrived, Chester and Michelle were sitting on the floor of the living room and playing Lego. Nine was lying next to them, watching them intently. The dog helped them look for missing pieces from time to time.

Chester excused himself, stood up, and went to the bathroom.

Hearing John and Nina come in, Nine immediately stood up and ran to them, jumping up on her.

“Hello, Nine. Did you miss your sister?” Nina bent down and scratched Nine’s ear.

Nine happily jumped up on John as well. John bent down and scratched Nine’s ear like Nina did. He said, “It seems that he missed his brother more.”

Once again, Nina rolled her eyes at her husband.

She did not expect him to call himself Nine’s brother.

She looked at him with an unreadable expression and asked, “Are you really my husband?”

John looked at Nina with wide eyes. Was there any problem?

“Of course I am,” he replied. Seeing the suspicious look on Nina’s face, John stood straight and scooped her up in his arms. He carried her to the bedroom.

Putting her arms around her husband’s neck, Nina smiled and said, “You are indeed my husband.”

He stopped walking for a moment, looking like he wanted to laugh.

She gently patted his chest and flashed him a knowing smile.

After entering the bedroom, John kicked the door shut behind them.

Michelle sat there with her head tilted to one side. “Did those two even notice I’m here?” she wondered aloud.

“What’s wrong?” Chester asked, returning from the bathroom. “Uncle John and Aunt Nina were just here. Where are they now?”

Michelle smiled and said, “Good, you see me. I’m not invisible.”

Chester squinted in confusion.

He thought, ‘Is there anything wrong with my brain because I haven’t read books for a long time?

Why am I more and more unable to understand what adults are thinking?’

In the bedroom, Nina pressed John against the wall, letting him feel the coldness of it.

“Does your back feel cold?” Nina stared at him naughtily.

“A little,” John replied. His shirt was gone now. He took it off the moment he put Nina down after shutting the bedroom door. “I’m sorry if I make your back feel cold all the time.”

Nina’s eyes softened a little. “Apology accepted. It’s good that you can recognize your mistakes. Now you can correct them.”

“I’ll ask someone to carpet our bedroom walls so that they won’t make you feel cold,” John said seriously.

“What?” Nina thought that she had misheard.

John just looked at her calmly.

She took a step back, but she lost her balance and fell into his arms.

He held her in his arms and said with a smile, “I just knew you’d always throw yourself at me.”

Nina didn’t know how to respond. She pushed him away and said,

“Please calm down, Mr. Shi.”

“All right, Mrs. Shi.” He took her hand and kissed her fingers.

Rolling her eyes, Nina withdrew her hand, opened the door, and went out.

John stayed in the room, leaned against the wall, and smiled to himself for a while. Then, he took out his mobile phone and called Amy. “Has everything been arranged in Spring City?” he asked as soon as Amy picked up.

“Yes, Mr. Shi. Everything is ready. We’re just waiting for you,” she answered.

“She’ll be flying there the day after tomorrow. She will arrive in the afternoon. Keep her clueless about my plans. I’ll be there in the evening.”

“Yes, sir.”

John was planning to propose to Nina in Spring City.

He had never thought about proposing to Nina until James proposed to Emma. He could not let his wife miss such an important moment.

After James successfully proposed to Emma, John sent Amy and Lena to Spring City to make arrangements for his proposal.

‘I won’t allow any mistakes.’ John attached great importance to this proposal.

It was such a big deal to him that he felt a little uneasy.

Perhaps it was because it would be the first time for him to propose to someone. It was also because it was Nina.

Putting his shirt back on, John walked out of the room after hanging up on Amy. Nina, Michelle, Chester, and Nine were playing Lego

and chatting.

“Chester, I’m going to Spring City the day after tomorrow. Would you like to join me on vacation?” Nina asked.

“No, thank you, Aunt Nina,” Chester replied. “I want to stay and read some books.” He thought, ‘I can’t understand what Michelle’s saying anymore. That’s a terrible thing.’

“Why do you read so many books, Chester? It’s better to go out with Nini. You’ll see more interesting things, much more interesting than what you can read about in books.”

Michelle thought that children should spend more time going out with adults. However, Chester still shook his head. John walked over and said, “Chester has gone to many places in the country. I’ll let him go abroad when he’s a little older.” “He’s gone to many places? That’s great,” Michelle smiled.

“By the way, Uncle John, are you going to Spring City with Nini? I have training sessions to attend during summer vacation, so I can’t go with her.”

Nina looked up at John. She had said that it did not matter to her whether he went to Spring City with her or not, but it would make her happy if he did.

“I’m busy,” John said plainly.

Nina nodded. It was really fine with her.
She would come home soon anyway. She said, “I won’t be coming back to North Yard. It’s more convenient for me to go to the airport from here. Do you want to stay here with me or…?”

“I’ll stay here with you.” John had already known that she would not go back to North Yard, so he had already asked someone to bring some necessities here.

Chester was sent to the Shi family villa on Stone Road. Michelle also went home. Her parents were on vacation and would return in time for James and Emma’s engagement party.

The next day, the engagement party was held as scheduled. It was a grand party with a lot of celebrities and noblemen in attendance. There were even designated media people present.

It was a night of drinking, dancing, and unrestrained revelry. Many people came with different intentions.
