My Superstar Wife Is So Popular-Chapter 751 - 749: Why Didn’t You Say You Were Back?

Fu Jinghen always remembered the promise he had made to Wen Qiao. Without her nod, he would absolutely not cross that line.

When being troubled, Wen Qiao also implicitly conveyed a "can continue" message to Fu Jinghen, but he either completely did not receive the message, pretended not to know, or genuinely did not know. In any case, he always managed to stop in time just as he was about to cross that line.

Wen Qiao found this quite baffling.

Fu Jinghen clearly wanted her too, yet he always exercised restraint in his actions.

Even though Wen Qiao was usually open, she couldn’t help being shy about this matter. Fu Jinghen stuck to his principles, she couldn’t ask directly, and she certainly couldn’t just lie down on the bed and openly tell him, "Come on."

But their daily lives together were still sweet and fulfilling.

The joyful days always flew by. During this period, Wen Qiao had no work other than a variety show she recorded every Monday, so she lived an idle life without much concept of time. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

It wasn’t until Jiang Yao notified her that she had to fly to Hai City for work the day after tomorrow that Wen Qiao realized her holiday was ending.

Then, she thought of a troubling point.

More than a week had passed since Lin Luang told her he was coming back to Jiang City, but during that time, Lin Luang hadn’t contacted her once.

Thinking of this, Wen Qiao sent Lin Luang a message, asking him if he had returned to Jiang City, as she was about to go to Hai City soon.

But the message went unanswered as if sunk into the sea. Wen Qiao guessed he might not have returned yet; the mountainous reception was poor, so she wasn’t too worried.

Two days later, Lin Luang replied that he hadn’t yet.

Wen Qiao asked when he would return, and he said he didn’t know.

Wen Qiao had to let it go, but she couldn’t shake off a lingering odd feeling.

Until one day, she stumbled upon Lin Luang’s social media post.

As the days grew colder, Wen Qiao’s tendency to laze in bed worsened. She hadn’t been able to leave bed to join Fu Jinghen on his commute to the company for several mornings, but she still cooked lunch and took it to him every day.

As soup simmered on the stove, Wen Qiao scrolled through her phone while keeping an eye on the fire.

Then, she saw a photo Lin Luang had taken at a coffee shop somewhere in Jiang City.

Located in the city center, she and Liu Tiantian had just been there for coffee a couple of days ago.

Her eyebrows rose slightly. He’s back and he didn’t tell her?

After casually liking the post, Wen Qiao returned to the main screen, found Lin Luang’s chat thread, and sent a message.

["Qiaoqiao’s not full: You’re back and didn’t tell me?"]

After sending the message, Wen Qiao put her phone aside and went to pack the food.

After getting everything ready and sitting in the car, Lin Luang still hadn’t replied to her message. Wen Qiao checked the social media again but didn’t see Lin Luang’s post anymore.

"Was it deleted?" "Why?" "Because that post revealed he had already returned to Jiang City?"

The unease in Wen Qiao’s mind grew, but she couldn’t be bothered to think it through and directly made a phone call, only to have it go unanswered until an emotionless robotic female voice answered.

Wen Qiao furrowed her brow and dialed again. Another busy signal, until a moment before the mechanical female voice was about to speak again, the call connected.

Lin Luang’s somewhat guilty voice came through the receiver, "Big sister..."

"Why didn’t you tell me you were back?"
