Chapter 42: Chapter 38: Leg Press_1
Could you give me more food?
I’m following someone else, and all you care about is food. Is the importance of food greater than your wife in your heart?
Even if one can’t survive without food, why don’t you find it yourself, but instead, you want to barter with the man who took your wife?
A faint sense of helplessness spread from the depths of Zhang Yuan’s heart. Surprisingly, she wasn’t too angry, but rather reflecting on her lack of judgement in choosing such a man.
Without being entirely aware, she had married Peng Zhi through arranged match-making. Only after marriage, she realized that Peng Zhi was a very selfish person. It was too late for regrets. She didn’t expect his selfishness to reach such an extent, so cowardly.
If she felt a little guilty about this before, Zhang Yuan had completely given up now.
Even then, she couldn’t help but feel a bit angry in her heart because no one wants to be treated so insignificantly. She felt she was at a great loss for marrying Peng Zhi for two years.
With a little sigh, she stepped back to Li Ming’s room, holding her belongings, then returned to pick up the cosmetics she had placed at the door and moved them inside. She also thoughtfully took a bag of shoes from Li Ming’s hand to make it easier for him to deal with the man in his room.
Li Ming looked back at him, squinted and pondered, and looked at him again.
Peng Zhi was a little nervous, his body unconsciously tense, and quickly regretted his previous bravado.
Not until Li Ming spoke did he let out a sigh of relief.

“For Zhang Yuan’s sake, I’ll get you some more food later. Consider it as my thanks for delivering such a good woman to me at the very beginning of the end.”
Capable, beautiful, and obedient.
Li Ming’s mouth curled into a smile, but when he saw Peng Zhi’s eyes filled with some joy, he was speechless and lost interest. Grabbing Zhang Yuan’s clothes, he left.
Zhang Yuan, who was back at her place and busy arranging her stuff, saw him come back and greeted him with a smile, “What did you say to him?”
“Nothing much, I thanked him for sending me such a wonderful wife. As a token of gratitude, I gave him some more food. Surprisingly, that guy was a bit happy.”
Li Ming shrugged nonchalantly. Zhang Yuan snorted, and then looked at him reproachfully, “Just give him what you’ve already given him. Are you really going to give him more?” What will he do in the future?”
“Oh, after all, he’s your ex-husband, I can’t be so stingy.”
Li Ming laughed and put down Zhang Yuan’s clothes. He casually filled a grocery bag with some vegetables and a few pieces of unappetizing bread, waved it at Zhang Yuan, and said, “Just giving him enough to get by.”
“Alright, just enough is good. Hurry up, I’ll wait for you to come back.”
Zhang Yuan wrinkled her nose, looking at Li Ming reproachfully, but she knew he was considering her feelings, which touched her heart, so she spoke softly.
“It’s just a few steps away, wait for me to come back and I’ll help you with the laundry.”
Li Ming announced cheerfully, and hearing Zhang Yuan’s words warmed his heart. If such a thing could win a woman’s heart effortlessly, why wouldn’t he do it? With that, he carried the plastic bag with the food to Peng Zhi’s room and dropped it on his bed.
“Here’s your food. Remember, from now on, we’re square, neither of us owe each other anything.”
Li Ming tossed the items to Peng Zhi and calmly addressed him.
Peng Zhi, who was rushing to get the food shivered and nodded repeatedly.
“Let go of what should be let go so you can live a good life. We’re all neighbors here. If your phone runs out of charge, I can lend you some electricity.Goodbye.”
Li Ming glanced at Peng Zhi, casually dropped a sentence, and then Peng Zhi stiffly nodded. He seemed to sense a hint of threat, or perhaps not, quietly watching Li Ming leave.
Li Ming left Peng Zhi’s room, casually closed his bedroom door behind him, and returned to his own home.
Zhang Yuan had already cleaned up her cosmetics and shoes. Just as she was unzipping her clothes bag, Li Ming stepped forward and together they placed the clothes in his little closet.
“So, how was your chat?”
Seeing Li Ming return, Zhang Yuan asked with a playful smile.
“Just chatted about random stuff, no biggie.”
Li Ming chuckled, then looking at the closet in front of him, he shook his head, “I bought this closet for myself, it can’t accommodate two people’s clothes.”
“No worries. We can stuff the thick winter clothes into a luggage bag, and only keep our seasonal clothes inside.”
Zhang Yuan laughed and waved dismissively. She then took the initiative to take out Li Ming’s thick clothes and put them in an empty large suitcase.
Li Ming chuckled and quickly hung up all of Zhang Yuan’s clothes. By the time he finished hanging her light clothes and took out his thick clothing, the closet was filled to the brim.
Li Ming turned around and looked. His room, which used to belong to him only, was now filled with a woman’s belongings and clothes. Suddenly, it felt different.
With a smile at the corner of his mouth, he walked over, picked up Zhang Yuan, who was arranging her stockings, and carried her to bed.
Zhang Yuan flexed a leg and began unbuttoning his shirt.
“…”
The emotions of a person can vary widely at different times.
Just like Li Ming right now, feeling so jovial.
To the current Li Ming, even if he fell asleep holding her, he wouldn’t feel any pressure. Instead, he felt comfortable which made the nap very restful.
When he woke up, it was already past one in the afternoon. Li Ming lazily played with Zhang Yuan, then washed his face, feeling refreshed, ready for his stretching exercises.
Now, he had already started feeling the benefits of stretching. His body felt lighter and more agile, a feeling he never experienced before.
While Li Ming began his workout, Zhang Yuan felt that her current clothes weren’t convenient for work. So she got up to change into a pair of shorts and a t-shirt, threw her thong and backless gauze dress into a basin to soak, and then went on to help Li Ming polish some drill bits.
Occasionally looking at Li Ming working out, she couldn’t help but giggle, thoroughly enjoying the secure feeling.
“Phew~”
Li Ming stretched his leg muscles for over three hours, and it was only after they started hurting that he stopped. He then proceeded with the horse stance, cycling between postures and didn’t finish stretching till late in the evening.
Suddenly an idea popped into his head, he attempted to do the splits. Successfully going all the way, a smile crept up on his face.
“One more day of stretching and it will be just about right.”
Feeling this progress, a smile formed on Li Ming’s face. Zhang Yuan on the other hand, looked surprised, “Honey, you managed to do the splits just within two days!”
“Well, didn’t you know who your husband is?”
Li Ming laughed, then he thought maybe it would be a good idea if Zhang Yuan also stretched a little. Although not everyone could get miraculous results like him, stretching would make her feel lighter and nimbler.
With this thought, Li Ming told Zhang Yuan about it. Intrigued, she enthusiastically agreed. Li Ming then laughingly helped her onto the floor to start her leg stretches.
“Morning and evening are the ideal times for leg stretches.”
Li Ming laughed as he explained, and then slowly assisted Zhang Yuan with her forward extension, lateral extension and rear extension.
“Click…”
There was a sound of the door opening and footsteps, Li Ming raised his head to see Peng Zhi, who was carrying rice, just walk by the door. On seeing that Li Ming’s bedroom door was open, he glanced inside subconsciously. Seeing Li Ming holding his wife’s legs, he shrank back and hurriedly went into the kitchen to cook.
The couple, engrossed in their stretching routine, were surprised to see that it was already time for dinner.
