It was simply because he shot up too violently that Wang An's large head slammed squarely into the ceiling.
Then, after a loud "thump," the entire ceiling let out a series of rumbling crashes.
It was clear that the ceiling had taken a serious beating; if it hadn't been so sturdy, that single blow would have undoubtedly smashed a huge hole right through it.
As everyone knows, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, so it wasn't hard to imagine what state Wang An's head was left in.
Anyway, once Wang An fell back onto the kang, he crouched there, clutching his head and wailing.
To be honest, Wang An had been hit hard, but more importantly, he had been scared half to death.
After all, anyone who suddenly takes a hit like that in the middle of a dream would find it quite distressing.
It took a long while before Wang An recovered from the daze of the impact.
However, upon waking, Wang An clearly felt a large lump beneath his palm. If he wasn't mistaken, the top of his skull had swollen up.
After resting a bit longer, Wang An felt his head was doing better, but he felt a searing pain in his backside. He touched it with his hand and couldn't help but hiss through his teeth.
This really fucking hurt!
With both his backside and his head injured in succession, Wang An still didn't know why Mu Xueqing had hit him.
Thus, rubbing his backside with one hand and his head with the other, Wang An said with a face full of annoyance and slight anger
"Why did you hit me? Couldn't you see I was asleep?"
At this moment, with his head aching and his backside stinging, his sleepiness vanished instantly, replaced by a truly foul mood.
To be fair, Mu Xueqing hadn't expected her slap to cause such severe results. Seeing that Wang An's tone was off, she couldn't help but soften a bit.
Mainly, since Mu Xueqing had married Wang An, he had never argued with her, so his sudden outburst made her feel very unsettled.
However, Mu Xueqing's personality was naturally quite fierce. Facing Wang An's accusation, she puffed out her chest and said
"What's wrong with me hitting you? I want to beat you to death! Which woman were you fooling around with before noon?"
Hearing this, Wang An's temper vanished instantly.
The thing is, whenever a person does something they're ashamed of, they inevitably feel guilty.
From Shen Wei to Lu Yueyue, and then to Fang Xiu'e and Sun Nian, Wang An was truly a legendary womanizer.
The most fucking annoying part was that Mu Xueqing's nose was better than a dog's; as long as Wang An was messing around outside, Mu Xueqing would definitely find out. That was truly impressive.
Seeing Wang An standing there speechless, Mu Xueqing continued
"Tell me, what's wrong with me hitting you? Do you deserve it or not?"
Sensing that Mu Xueqing was about to lose her temper, Wang An immediately leaned forward and said in a very sycophantic tone
"I deserve it, I deserve it. There's absolutely nothing wrong with the hitting. Wife, why don't you hit me a couple more times?"
Wang An had already figured out Mu Xueqing's temperament. Although she would be unhappy about him chasing women, she didn't actually mind it that much.
Therefore, as long as he proactively submitted and let Mu Xueqing vent her anger, things would basically be fine.
It must be said that Wang An truly saw through Mu Xueqing.
Because Mu Xueqing really was that kind of woman.
Of course, there were reasons why Mu Xueqing was like this.
On one hand, although Wang An chased other women, he remained the same toward Mu Xueqing, never reducing his respect for her by even a fraction.
On the other hand, Wang An was too good at making money, yet he handed all the financial power of the household over to Mu Xueqing.
One must know that money is the courage of a hero, but it is also the courage of a woman.
Beyond these two aspects, Mu Xueqing also felt a sense of indebtedness toward Wang An.
When Wang An married her, he had spent a significant amount on the bride price, and more importantly, he had continued to help her natal family after the wedding.
It was no exaggeration to say that without Wang An, Mu Xueqing's father, Mu Hua, would definitely not be as healthy as he was now; his condition might have been even worse than before, and Mu Hua's family would never have lived such a good life.
Crucially, Mu Xueqing herself would have been married off to a degenerate gambler.
Overall, the issue of Wang An's womanizing was truly not a big deal to Mu Xueqing.
However, people need to be knocked down when necessary; otherwise, Mu Xueqing would have no place to vent her frustration.
So, as soon as Wang An finished speaking, Mu Xueqing swung her palm and slapped his arm "pa-pa-pa" several more times.
Then, Mu Xueqing glared at him with her beautiful large eyes and questioned
"You're not done? One on the left, one on the right—are you bringing them all home? Do I need to clear some space for you?"
Wang An grabbed Mu Xueqing's hand and continued to smile flatteringly
"What are you talking about, wife? You're my only wife. With them, it's just a one-time thing and then it's over; there's no emotion involved."
Mu Xueqing's tone softened slightly, and she said sarcastically
"I didn't think about it before, but I didn't realize you were so 'capable,' huh? Even a beautiful city woman like Sun Nian could be coaxed onto the kang by you?"
Hearing this, Wang An was inwardly shocked, but he continued to smile flatteringly
"We just slept together once. Now that it's done, haven't I come back?"
He had to admit that Mu Xueqing's nose was truly invincible. Sun Nian had only visited the house a few times, yet Mu Xueqing had somehow memorized Sun Nian's body scent.
Strangely enough, whether it was Mu Xueqing, Shen Wei, or Fang Xiu'e—and of course, the women Wang An had "deeply communicated" with in his previous life—these women all had different scents.
Especially after they had "fired a shot," the scent became more obvious, and the most fucking annoying part was that these scents would cling to the man!
Mu Xueqing suddenly threw a tantrum
"That woman Sun Nian looks decent, why is she so cheap? I'm just wondering, with her great family background and great job, what the hell does she see in you?"
At a time like this, Wang An absolutely could not fail to answer, because if he played dead and stayed silent, Mu Xueqing's anger would shoot up instantly.
So Wang An pondered for a long while before saying somewhat hesitantly
"It's probably because your man's skills on the kang are top-notch."
Mainly, Wang An couldn't possibly say that the reason Sun Nian seduced him was that she viewed him as a substitute, right?
That would be too fucking embarrassing.
Hearing this, Mu Xueqing couldn't help but hit Wang An again, but a hint of a smile appeared on her face.
Seeing Mu Xueqing's smiling face, Wang An immediately struck while the iron was hot and began to coax her.
Until he had coaxed Mu Xueqing to sleep, Wang An finally held the naked Mu Xueqing and fell into a deep sleep himself.
