Who shared my wife's first night? Chapter 1
The old couple next door must have fallen into a deep sleep.
I finally managed to persuade the chatty little maid to go downstairs to the rest room. This little girl is not like her mother, after experiencing many things in this house, she knows when to retreat and what to do. The clock had struck ten, but she was still lying in bed wearing her pajamas, being coquettish and refusing to leave. Looking at her demeanor, it didn't seem like she came to work as a maid, but rather like our own daughter.
"Taking a bath, ah..." His wife languidly stretched and yawned, dragging her wrinkled pajamas as she rolled out of bed and quickly slipped into the bathroom.
Hearing this soft and pleasant voice, seeing these light footsteps, you must think that my wife should be so charming. In these days just after returning home, I should spend such a warm and romantic night.
But if you see her icy gaze, your heart will immediately cool down, cool down...
Alas, I really don't know how I've managed to "get by" with her for over a decade of marriage.
The bathroom came with a dull sound of splashing water, and out of boredom, I turned on the TV.
The TV screen is bright and empty, with no content at all. After switching through several channels, except for one station that was broadcasting a Chinese football match that was already certain to lose, everything else was playing advertisements, especially those female celebrities' eyebrow-wriggling and eye-batting health supplement ads that made you even more annoyed.
I sighed and reluctantly inserted the plug connected to the satellite cable into the TV socket.
I heard that our country prohibits private users from receiving satellite TV. But this high-ranking official's family somehow got a set of receiving equipment and secretly enjoyed foreign culture. I think it must be my big brother-in-law who did this good deed.
The exotic melody was clearly transmitted to the land of the East through modern information devices. Then, a bird's-eye view of a European city with lights on at night appeared on TV, indicating that it was late at night and nightlife had begun... Those "not suitable for children" TV programs could be staged openly... A family of four, the male protagonist seemed to have just returned home from a distant place. The car stopped, two children and his wife got out to hug him... Late at night, the couple sent the children to sleep in their room upstairs... In a world of two, the man and woman eagerly took off their clothes, deeply kissed... Like dry wood meeting fierce fire, long-drought encountering fierce fire sweet rain... Hugging and kissing, teasing and tugging, the screen was filled with a rich atmosphere of intimacy between husband and wife.
What's wrong with Westerners? Is it the hatred and whipping of the phenomenon that leads to the separation of husbands and wives, or is it a reminder of the coldness of married life under the heavy workload, or... The little things between men and women in bed are expressed so meticulously and vividly.
I quietly stepped forward and moved towards the bathroom door. In the small glass window that was not covered, my wife's slender and beautiful figure appeared.
In the midst of my passionate and fiery torment, she was emitting waves of heat from head to toe, smiling foolishly as she walked towards me.
"Look," I pointed to the intimate scene of a man and woman on TV, then tentatively wrapped my arms around her and gently kissed her slightly parted lips.
She hesitated for a moment, then her two eyes stared in the direction of my pointing finger.
On the TV screen, the sensitive areas of the couple's thighs are gradually enlarged, and the thick and straight attack nozzle approaches step by step...
Is it okay?
Ah!?!
At that moment, I clearly saw a flash of joy and delight on her face, but this expression was only for an instant... In an instant, the joy and delight immediately turned into nothingness.
"He, they, ah, no——"
She lowered her eyelids, shrugged her shoulders, and silently bowed her head.
As her body shook, that depressing and frightened gaze appeared. Then, she suddenly pulled out her body and hid beside the bedside table in a flustered manner.
Then, a pair of pitiful eyes glanced over at me.
This is not a wife's gaze at her husband, but a woman's vigilant and guarded glance at an unfamiliar man.
Alas! I've been abroad for several years and haven't been home, how can she still be like this?!
I let out a long sigh and shook my head.
The foreign couple's performance on the bed ended vaguely, and a piano piece describing the night color was played from the TV speaker. The slow and heavy adagio was played slowly, appearing gloomy, and a cold and ominous atmosphere spread around me.
She got on the bed, lay down; and didn't close her eyes that seemed to have been frightened by a bad guy until I gently wiped away her inexplicable tears.
The wall lamp shone with a faint light, illuminating the heavy furniture. My heart was shattered in agony, and then filled with indescribable remorse and regret.
In my dream, my wife's face was as bright and beautiful as the sun in spring. Her long hair cascaded down like a waterfall, her eyelashes fluttered like butterflies, her lips were naturally red and inviting, and her nose was playfully upturned, making one's heart skip a beat... Alas, if only she didn't have this one flaw, I would dare say that ranking my wife among the most beautiful women of the century wouldn't be an exaggeration at all.
Tonight, I don't have too many sighs. This kind of day isn't just one or two days. On our wedding night, we didn't even share a bed. The *** that had been simmering for years wasn't released on the wedding bed... On the wedding night, my wife wouldn't let me get close to her. In my hometown, this became a scandal and a joke. It was because of this that my childhood sweetheart, Mei Rong, broke through worldly prejudices and completed an imperfect union with me in the mountains... Yes, due to societal pressure, I didn't fully open up at the time. I still wanted to protect her virginity, so she could have a happier marriage in the future. So, we only did half of it and ended abruptly.
After that, I lived a life where on the surface, I was married, but in reality, I was alone. Of course, this bitter life had its compensations - maintaining my marriage allowed me to soar in my career. Relying on my father-in-law's position as a high-ranking official, I soon became the director of that military factory in the mountains, then the general manager of the Changbai Military Industry Group. Later, I was selected by the "organization" to work in the ministry, and after a few years, I became a reserve cadre and was sent to Europe to study for an MBA. Now, I've returned to China with my diploma.
I heard that recently, the central government is going to send a batch of cadres to take up positions below. Without hesitation, I signed up. In our country, being sent from Beijing to other places has always been a way to become a local king. With my level, experience, and social connections, at the very least, I should be able to get a position as a municipal cadre. Compared to my marital life, this kind of prosperous career is nothing! In today's world, if you're a mayor, what kind of woman can't you get?
But I heard that, regarding my application for a demotion and transfer, my father-in-law is not very supportive. This afternoon, he made a phone call to our minister, implying that I'm still young and it's better for me to stay in Beijing and develop within the department... I think this is just an excuse. What he's really worried about is his daughter's marriage; he's afraid that after I go, my family will fall into disarray... He might know that our married life is not harmonious, and worry that if I go to work at a lower level, I'll get involved with other women, affecting his daughter's marriage and ultimately the reputation of this high-ranking official's family.
After some thought, I think my father-in-law's worries are reasonable. A man who has been married for over a decade and whose wife does not sleep with him, who can tolerate that? If it were an ordinary man, he would have proposed divorce long ago. I have been enduring, enduring, seemingly very generous, but in fact, the motivation in my heart is not noble, this only shows that I am a selfish and ambitious person. As a commoner, I relied on this marriage to become a high-ranking official, if I were to divorce, my future would be completely ruined. However, if I were to take office and achieve my goal of promotion and wealth, it's hard to say what would happen next. Would I continue to endure like this? As an official in the capital, one is like a crane standing among chickens, everyone looks up to him with admiration and envy, in such an environment, it's likely that there will be women more beautiful and charming than Cai Xing who would throw themselves at me, at that time, would I, a robust and vigorous man in my prime, still remain unmoved?
……?
So I got a bit worried. The lower appointment, despite being a central call, despite me being the first to sign up, may also be an empty dream without results, because everything is given by my father-in-law. Can I persuade my father-in-law? I really didn't have any confidence in my heart. This hurdle was indeed difficult to pass!
Deep in thought, a short ringtone from the mobile phone, a message has arrived.
I opened it and was shocked.
This message was sent by a sister friend of mine in the hospital. This obstetrician and gynecologist sister recently examined my wife's body according to my instructions, nominally for neurosis, but actually for her physical system.
Her message read: "Your wife is no longer a virgin and has had multiple sexual encounters."
What? Not a virgin? Multiple sexual experiences? How is this possible?
Seeing the information in white characters on a black background, I couldn't believe my eyes.
My wife, although she was a graduate of an art school, was not flirtatious or avant-garde when she was a maiden; moreover, the impression she gave people was always conservative and shy, her virginity was beyond doubt. We didn't make love on our wedding night. After marriage, we never had conjugal relations; even when we sometimes romped in bed, embracing each other, I never actually violated her private parts. She should have been a virgin!
How could the test results be like this?
It's okay if she's not a virgin, but why did she have multiple sexual experiences?
However, I really can't doubt the accuracy of this sister's inspection results. This sister is not only a gynecological expert who understands women's physical structure, but also studies women's sexual psychology and often hosts sex education programs on radio stations at night to answer various tricky questions about sex. Moreover, she is a decent person with a family and would not have any ulterior motives towards my marriage, nor would she need to provide false information to deceive me...
So the problem can only be with her, with my wife...
So she has sexual function, she can do it. But if so, why did she refuse to do it with me on the wedding night; and insisted for so many years that I couldn't touch her **?
I insist on being a eunuch because of the huge benefits it brings in officialdom; and what special reason does she have that gives her such strong inhibitions?
It's getting late, and I'm overcome with drowsiness. Facing this difficult puzzle, I don't have the energy to think deeply about it anymore. However, this matter seems to have prompted me to make a decision. It's as if I've made up my mind: resolute demotion.
Despite the difficulties, I still decided to strive for it. The balanced life in the organization has bored me, and I can no longer live a mediocre life as an official. Even my father-in-law's backing and my beautiful wife have lost their original meaning due to the content of this message, and there is no way for me to continue struggling in Beijing.
