Chapter 2668: Like Many Eyes Were Staring at Her
Thanks to all the needlework she had to do in the previous world, Ning Shu now could handle the needle and thread expertly. She sewed the wound as closely as possible to how Cheng Fei did it.
She then threw the needle in the trash can, applied the medicine, and went home.
The moment she got home, Ning Shu felt like many eyes were staring at her.
Ai Yun had probably sensed this. Most people were able to sense when they were watched.
Especially so since Ai Yun was always alone at home. The sensation was probably even more intense.
Just thinking about the handsome Cheng Fei, sitting in front of the computer and watching her every move, creeped her out.
This perfect husband actually turned out to be a peeping Tom.
Well, there was actually no need to peep on his own wife.
So the reason he did this must have been because he wanted to know everything she did at any time, and wanted to control his wife’s life completely and absolutely.
This was obsessive controlling.
Ning Shu had put the tracker in her pocket before she returned home. As of now, she turned on the TV and sat cross-legged on the sofa. She looked as if she was watching TV.
However, she was only staring blankly at the TV as she cultivated.
Since he wanted to peep, she might as well play along and grace him with her beauty.
After she cultivated for a while, Ning Shu opened the refrigerator to find something to eat.
Ning Shu rummaged through the refrigerator and saw a pinhole camera in it.
She pretended not to notice it. She took the noodles that were placed in front of the pinhole camera, then closed the refrigerator door.
He even put a pinhole camera in the refrigerator. Why didn’t he just install it in the toilet as well and look at what shit she was shitting today?
He was simply f*cking crazy.
When Ning Shu went to the kitchen to reheat the noodles, her eyes wandered everywhere. She wanted to know if there was a spot in the room where she wouldn’t be watched by a camera.
However, there was not a single blind spot in the room.
This husband of hers, who was perfect in the eyes of everyone else, was actually a terrifying lunatic.
Ning Shu sat on a chair and ate her noodles. Inwardly, she pondered whether she should wait until Cheng Fei came home tonight and beat the living shit out of him.
Did Cheng Fei really murder Ai Yun?
Cheng Fei seemed obsessive in pursuing his desire for control. Could he have killed the original host because she did something he couldn’t tolerate? Or because it seemed like she was escaping his control?
While Ning Shu was eating, all sorts of thoughts flashed through her mind.
By the time Ning Shu finished eating her bowl of noodles, she had come to the conclusion to keep up the charades for the time being and assess the situation further.
When Cheng Fei came back that night, he brought with him a bouquet of fresh lilies. He gave it to Ning Shu.
Ning Shu took the flowers and said, “Thank you. It’s very beautiful.”
Cheng Fei lifted up Ning Shu’s sleeve and observed Ning Shu’s wound. He asked, “What happened to your wound?”
“The wound got too inflamed and painful, so I went to the nearest pharmacy and bought some anti-inflammatory medicine,” Ning Shu said. A foreign object had been sewn into the wound, so of course her body couldn’t properly heal.
“Why didn’t you call me when your wound hurt? I would’ve brought you anti-inflammatory medicine,” Cheng Fei gently said.
Ning Shu only hummed in response.
She put the flowers in a vase and placed the vase in the middle of the dining table.
It was very beautiful.
Seeing this, Cheng Fei smiled at Ning Shu and said, “We’re having steak today.”
Cheng Fei carried the groceries into the kitchen and sautéd the steak.
Soon, the steak was ready. Cheng Fei’s cooking skills were superb. The steak looked almost like it was made by a high-end restaurant.
The plating was also very nice.
Cheng Fei was someone who lived life well and also had very good taste.
Cheng Fei cut up his steak and put it in front of Ning Shu. He then took Ning Shu’s plate instead.
“You can start eating,” he gently said to Ning Shu.
Cheng Fei had cut her steak into little pieces, so Ning Shu didn’t really need to do anything and could eat with just her fork.
Meanwhile, Cheng Fei still had to cut the other plate of steak.
It was really considerate of him.
