"I want that too, I want to stay home every day with you and our daughter, but if I don't earn money, who'll support you both? With today's cutthroat competition, how dare I take a break!" Duan Zhiming shook his head helplessly, his gaze suddenly fixing on a pair of brand-new leather shoes in the cabinet.
"Hmm? Shanshan, whose shoes are these?…"
"Ah!!" Qiao Shanshan followed her husband's gaze, seeing Li Bin's shoes in the cabinet, a glaring mistake that made her tremble, cold sweat dripping from her forehead.
"It's over! He found out! How could I be so careless?! I didn't think about the shoes! This time, Zhiming won't forgive me! What do I do? What do I do?!…" Qiao Shanshan's heart sank in despair, ready to confess everything.
She was already tired of this marriage; if her husband insisted on pursuing today's incident, she could only choose divorce.
But… it would be so hard on their newborn daughter…
"Veilisr? Shanshan! How did you know I've always wanted a pair of Veilisr shoes? You're so thoughtful!" At that moment, Duan Zhiming picked up Li Bin's shoes, excitedly admiring their craftsmanship, his mouth unable to close from joy.
Those top-tier Italian luxury shoes were bought by Li Bin when shopping with his sister-in-law Wen Lan, costing over ten thousand! Brand new, and by chance, Li Bin's shoe size matched Duan Zhiming's exactly.
Hearing her husband, Qiao Shanshan, drenched in cold sweat, quickly calmed down, smiling, "Really! I wanted to surprise you! You found them early! Hmph! I was just about to wrap the shoes, and you came back!"
"My wife's the best! You know me so well! Thank you, wife!" Duan Zhiming looked happily at his wife, gently handing her the flowers mysteriously, saying, "Darling, happy birthday! It's your birthday, I should be the one buying you gifts, how could you buy me something! Look what surprise I got you!"
Seeing how easily she dodged suspicion, Qiao Shanshan let out a long sigh of relief, taking the flowers, sneaking a glance at her husband's happy expression, finally relaxing completely.
But seeing her husband's weary face, eyes full of affection, thinking of his effort to rush back for her birthday, Qiao Shanshan felt overwhelming guilt and shame. The flowers in her hands felt scalding.
Yes, her husband worked tirelessly for this family, giving her everything, scrimping and saving, always accommodating her, pampering her, cherishing her. But she… she betrayed him, cheating with another man at home! Thinking of her and Li Bin's lewd, shameful coupling, Qiao Shanshan felt unbearable shame, utterly sinful and vile.
"What are you spacing out for? Check out the birthday gift I got you!" Duan Zhiming looked at her nervously, excitedly pointing to the beautifully packaged box in the bouquet.
"What… what is it… you… you're spending recklessly again… you won't even buy yourself shoes… and you get me this…" Qiao Shanshan, guilt-ridden, lowered her head, ashamed, pursing her lips, gently opening the gift box in the bouquet.
A dazzling gleam shot out, the sparkling diamond blindingly radiant.
"Ah! ~~~ A Cartier Blue Balloon watch! This diamond-studded one costs over a hundred thousand, right? You!! You're too much! Why spend so much!" Qiao Shanshan covered her mouth in shock, her face full of disbelief.
"As long as my wife likes it, let alone a hundred thousand, I'd spend millions! I know you've wanted this watch for so long, I saved months of pocket money to buy it for your birthday!"
Duan Zhiming gently took the watch, carefully putting it on Qiao Shanshan's wrist.
"Husband… you… I…" Seeing her husband's tender care, Qiao Shanshan felt even more ashamed, wishing she could kneel and swear never to betray him again.
"Wife, I missed you so much!" Duan Zhiming, seeing her flushed cheeks and seductive charm, couldn't resist reaching to hug her.
"Wah! ~~~ Mommy! ~~~ Wah! ~~~ Wuu wuu ~~~" Just then, Tongtong, who had quieted briefly, started crying loudly again.
Seizing the chance, Qiao Shanshan gently pushed her husband away, saying, "Our daughter's awake, I'll check on her!" She turned and fled to the bedroom.
