Mo Jiangye was instantly on alert mode, his gaze turning vicious as though he had caught sight of prey.
He reached over for the phone on the table and unlocked it to click on the message. It was only when he realized that it was a spam message that he calmed down again.
Naturally, Ye Erruo did not miss that small action of his. “Mo Jiangye, tell me honestly, what is wrong with you exactly?”
The man stayed silent. His only response was a tighter hug.
“…”
For the entire evening, no matter what the woman said or asked him, he would not give her any response. Somehow, she could sense the unease in him. She eventually chose not to pursue the matter and gave him a soothing hug instead.
It was past ten o’clock at night now. The man in her arms had already fallen into a deep sleep, while she had difficulty falling asleep.
Bzzt! Her phone, which she had placed aside, vibrated again.
She did not pay attention to her phone at first, but after it continuously vibrated several times, it was clear that it was not another spam message.
The moment she clicked to read the messages, she was completely aghast.
Several indecent and nude photos that showed her front and side profiles came into sight. There was a man in the photos as well, but his face had been blurred out.
With gritted teeth, she carefully looked through the photos one by one. It was obvious that the woman in the shots was not her. Even though they looked like two peas in a pod, the woman was a size bigger than her in the boobs department. This was evident in the clearly-taken shots from all angles, be it from the front or the top.
She had no idea whether those photos had been photoshopped, but she could imagine the consequences if they were leaked…
Another message came in: [ Ms. Ye, can we meet? ]
Her gaze turned frosty when she read that message, but she did not reply to it. Apparently, the other party was targeting her!
She then received another text message. [ What do you think of these photos? How do you think Mo Jiangye will feel when he sees them? ]
She lost her cool when she read this. These photos mustn’t be seen by Mo Jiangye!
Should he see them, he’ll definitely fly into a rage again and hold a grudge against me even if he knows that the person in the photo isn’t me. Even I’m fed up after seeing these photos, so I can’t imagine his reaction!
In her momentary daze, she felt the man moving in her embrace so she hastily set her phone aside.
The sleeping man wrapped his arms tighter around his wife, only to continue sleeping peacefully when he felt her softness in his embrace.
Ye Erruo slipped her fingers into his hair. His scorching hug had her perspiring all over the forehead and breathing uncomfortably.
She made the bold assumption that his unusual behavior probably had something to do with those photos. Has the other party let him see those photos already?
After all, he would only be so clingy when he felt insecure and only claim her without restraint when he felt a sense of crisis.
After deleting the photos and messages, she blacklisted that unknown number and hugged the sleeping man.
The next morning, she woke up in a bathtub of warm greyish water that smelled of Chinese traditional herbs. She was kissed on the forehead by the man when she lifted her head.
“What’s this? Why a bath so early in the morning?”
Mo Jiangye gave her a peck on her bruised skin. “Does it hurt?”
