MY UNKNOWN HUSBAND, VOLUME 3 - Season 6 Episode 50
Cali ran away with her head down.
She rushed into the crowd and disappeared in a flash.
As if nothing had happened, John put one of his hands into his trouser pocket and scanned the streets like a radar.
There were four gates to the Cloud Building. Sitting in the car, Nina saw that John was waiting for her at the east gate, so she asked the driver to change the route and go to the south gate. After getting out of the car, she quietly snuck behind him.
She looked at the lilac shirt he was wearing and then at her lilac slip dress, smiling.
She tiptoed forward like a thief in the night.
All of a sudden, John felt a finger being pressed into his waist, and a familiar warning sounded in his ears.
“Don’t move.”
With a smile on his face, John straightened his back and raised his hands cooperatively. “I don’t have any money.”
Passers-by looked at the couple and smiled warmly. A young girl pulled her boyfriend’s arm and asked, “Is he being robbed? Shall we call the police?”
“Don’t be silly. They are just making fun of each other. Look at their clothes. They’re a couple.” The boy held the girl’s hand and left.
Hearing this, Nina curled her lips and said,
“I don’t want your money. I want you to turn around.”
John turned around slowly and bent down. Holding her legs, he picked her up.
“I’ve got you, little girl.”
She wasn’t expecting him to lift her up so suddenly. She wriggled and wrapped her arms around his neck.
After she steadied herself, she exhaled a mouthful of air. “I was so scared. Why didn’t you warn me?”
“I told you inwardly.” He held onto her legs and waited for her to hold him like a koala.
Ever since he gave up on carrying her on his shoulder, this had become his favorite way to hold his little girl.
He quickly realized that she was wearing a dress today. She wouldn’t be completely exposed, but he didn’t want her gorgeous legs out for everyone to see. He loved them so much and he wanted them all to himself.
John had to put her down and held her hand. They strolled down the street like the other couples did.
Nina stopped in front of almost every store, ogling at the delicious food. She reached up and touched her mask and was forced to give up on tasting anything.
He suggested, “Buy anything you want and take it home.”
“It won’t taste as good if I only eat it later.” She pulled him away reluctantly.
Feeling sorry for her, he held her hand tightly. ‘It will only take half a year. After that, we won’t have to hide from others.’
“I have something to tell you.” Although John was a little hesitant, he still decided to spill the beans. “Cali confessed her love to me in the Cloud Building. I rejected her.”
Nina stopped dead in her tracks. She knew that this day would come, but she was still surprised. She had a sense of jealousy in her heart that was not soon fleeting.
Many woman had their eyes on John. This time, Cali confessed her love. How could Nina not be jealous?
“What? Did you even have to think twice?”
“No.” John held her waist and smiled.
He liked the way she got jealous.
“I don’t care about her. Why would I even need to think about her proposition?” Nina pinched his strong waist.
He held her even tighter. “I don’t like anyone else except you.”
“Ewww.” Pushing him away, she smiled.
She walked into a boutique, stood in front of a row of little mirrors and bent down to pick some up.

She held a square mirror in her left hand, and a small round mirror in her right hand. Each one had little designs on it. One was a house and a cat, and the other was a house and a dog. Thinking of Nine, she chose the small circular mirror with the dog on it and opened it to have a closer look. Something caught her eye and she furrowed her eyebrows.
John noticed her sudden worry and enquired, “What’s wrong?”
“Don’t look back.” Nina approached him and slowly closed the mirror. “I suspect that we have been followed.”
“We need to leave.” He put his arm around her shoulder, paid the bill and left.
The stalker seemed to realize that they had been found out so they stopped following the couple.
John and Nina didn’t feel safe to walk around the streets anymore, so they went to the hotel. Vicente’s suite was right next to theirs.
She told Nina that she was busy with work, but the laptop and documents hadn’t been touched in a while. She was chatting with Noah on WeChat.
She typed, “The two of us are so tragic.
On the Qixi Festival, others are dating, but we’re working at night.”
Noah replied, “It’s daytime in my city.”
“It turns out that I am the only one who is suffering then.”
Noah replied, “I’m busy now. Let’s talk later.”
Vicente was a little disappointed in all honesty. Her fingers typed the two words “Talk later” in the dialog box, but didn’t click send.
“If I send it, won’t it be awkward if he doesn’t reply? I better not send it, so that I’ll have an excuse to chat with him next time,” Vicente murmured.
As she was about to delete her message, she heard a sudden knock on the door, making her accidentally send the message in her shock. She was speechless. Staring at the chat blankly, disbelief spread across her face. ‘Is it too late to withdraw the message? Won’t it be more embarrassing if I withdraw it?
Oh my God!
Should I withdraw it or not?’
She was about to lose her mind when she heard another knock at the door. As soon as the door opened, there were two people in masks that were waiting to greet her.
She held her phone and as the rage built, she felt like she could kill them.
Her furious expression engulfed her face.
‘I was kind enough to arrange so much for them, but they ended up making trouble for me.’
“What’s the matter?” Vicente asked impatiently. John and Nina simultaneously explained, “We were followed, so…”
“That’s not my problem.” They didn’t even finish speaking before the door was shut in their faces.
The two of them were a little dazed.
“I wonder who pissed Vicente off.” It was the first time that Nina had seen Vicente look so distraught.
“It might be us,” John said.
This just confused Nina even more. “What did we do?”
He clutched her hand and raised it up. She then understood. “This was quite a big blow. Vicente has been single for twenty-seven years.”
John smiled as he looked at his little girl. Suddenly, the door swung open. Vicente stared at them and said, “Come in. Who were following you? You aren’t in the media very often. Nobody should’ve recognized you since you are wearing masks.”
Nina shrugged. “Who knows?”
John said, “There is a monitor in the shop. If we can get the surveillance footage, we can probably find out.”
“Wait a minute.” Vicente picked up her phone and made a call.
Within minutes, she had the footage sent to her mailbox and went through the video frame by frame.
After getting a clear view of why followed them, they were astonished.
