My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!-Chapter 216 - 120: Unleashing Ultimate at Point-Blank, Facing the Wife’s Wrath_3
Li Nuo glanced towards the door, puzzled, "What’s wrong with Mumu? She only ate a little and is already full…"
Before he could finish, Li Nuo suddenly realized an issue.
His wife rarely served him dishes, and she definitely would not feed him.
The one who would feed him was another lady.
He turned his head and saw Li Anning, who, like an ostrich, was burying her head in her chest. Then he looked at Song Jiaren, who was eating quietly on the other side, her expression calm, showing no emotions, and said, "Wife, I can explain this…"
…
To infiltrate the Thief Sect, Li Nuo had to find himself a suitable new identity.
He had County Magistrate Pei go through the government office records and, after browsing a large amount of household data, finally found a suitable person.
Song Yu lived in Chang’an North City, his parents had passed away, he had no relatives in Chang’an, and he relied on his wife for living.
His build was similar to Li Nuo’s, and Song Yu’s wife’s figure was only slightly inferior to Li Anning’s.
In this way, even if the Thief Sect checked on him, they wouldn’t notice any obvious issues.
Moreover, for safety reasons as well as others, Li Anning was the most suitable choice.
Since the two were to pretend to be a couple, they naturally had to act the part well.
Though he and his wife were indeed a real couple, if he and Li Anning interacted in this manner, the Thief Sect would likely see through them on the first day.
To cultivate tacit understanding between them, so as not to call each other by the wrong names in public or make any actions that didn’t match their identities, causing the mission to fall through due to earlier successes, they even addressed each other as husband and wife at home.
In public, they would also make appropriately intimate gestures to dispel any suspicions from those spying on them.
Because he played the role too passionately, he still maintained some of the habits from those three days.
This was quite normal.
Though he and Li Anning had engaged in some acts beyond friendship to deceive those people, they always kept to their boundaries during these three days, at most having minor physical contact.
While this was the case, Li Nuo still omitted some things, such as those concerning body types that could hurt his wife’s self-esteem.
Li Nuo looked at Song Jiaren and said, "This is the situation. Pretending to be a couple with Her Highness was a desperate measure to infiltrate the Thief Sect, otherwise, there was no way to get in. I had planned to tell you this later…"
Song Jiaren nodded and said, "I know."
Li Nuo was slightly startled, "You knew?"
Song Jiaren replied, "Mumu and I saw you two on the street."
Li Nuo: "…"
It was just a slip of the tongue earlier.
When outside, the two of them were hugging and kissing, truly an enviable model couple.
What kind of ’transgression before a wife’ is this?
Li Anning’s face turned even redder.
She looked at Song Jiaren with immense apology and said, "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to…"
Though she was guilt-free over these three days, acting that way in front of someone else’s wife was indeed too much.
Unknowing people might think she was challenging the official wife’s standing.
Song Jiaren’s expression remained calm, and she faintly said, "Don’t worry, you were also doing it for the people, no need to apologize."
Li Anning stood up and said, "Then I’ll go back to the Ministry of Justice."
She nodded slightly to Song Jiaren before hurrying off.
Li Nuo didn’t leave with Li Anning; he hadn’t had enough to eat yet.
He looked at his wife, who was still eating calmly, showing no emotional fluctuation.
If she had seen them last night, she must have gotten to know something already.
No wonder she had been staring at his unmade face for a long time.
But she still said nothing.
Whether it was Phoenix or Li Anning, Li Nuo could guess a bit of their thoughts, but he could never see through his wife.
She never showed her emotions on her face.
Things at the Ministry of Justice should be wrapping up soon. Li Nuo quickly scooped up a few mouthfuls of rice, put down his chopsticks, and said, "There’s still an unresolved murder case at the Ministry of Justice, I need to check it out…"
Moments later, as Li Nuo sat in the carriage headed toward the Ministry of Justice, he couldn’t help but think.
His wife’s emotions would never show, and from the surface, it was impossible to tell whether she was angry or not.
If she sleeps with him tonight, it indicates that the issue isn’t severe.
Conversely, if she chooses to sleep with Mumu, the problem might be more serious.
But Li Nuo had no choice.
This case mattered to whether he could live a few more years.
Even if it wasn’t Li Anning, it could be Phoenix or another curvaceous woman.
No, not Phoenix.
If something unexpected happened, Phoenix couldn’t protect him.
The carriage soon arrived at the Ministry of Justice. As Li Nuo walked into the government office, Li Anning, sitting there, looked up at him and asked, "You two alright?"
Li Nuo replied, "Don’t worry, my wife isn’t unreasonable. Besides, what could go wrong between us?"
Though he wasn’t sure himself, he could only say that to her.
Li Anning’s greatest worry was that this incident would affect their marital relationship.

But then again, it seemed like they didn’t have much of a relationship to speak of.
Was it that Song Jiaren simply didn’t care?
If so, wasn’t he even more pitiful?
Even if she had flipped the table and fought with him, it would have been better than such indifferent behavior.
Among couples, the saddest things are neglect and apathy.
Li Anning took several dossiers from a drawer and said, "These dossiers are ready, you can stamp them first."
