TMLSG -Chapter 36 Call Me Husband

The appearance of Ren Yanfu and Ren Yanli was completely beyond Ren Yanjing’s expectations.

These two had actually come to watch the excitement right in front of him, the main person involved.

He casually sent them away and then went with Tang Zhen to the beginner ski slope.

Tang Zhen was wearing thick ski clothes and gloves. She walked slowly, looking like a clumsy little penguin.

She had never skied before.

Ren Yanjing didn’t even put on his skis. Instead, he simply held one of her hands in each of his, guiding her slowly as she learned.

From a distance, Ren Yanfu snapped a photo and posted it in the family group chat.

“Our A-Jing is in love for the first time and is actually this patient.”

With just that one photo, the family chat once again exploded with discussion.

Ren Yanjing’s parents were also in the group.

At this moment, they were also watching the fun and commenting.

The group became extremely lively.

Even Second Grandma—who, like the old master of the Ren family, rarely appeared—spoke up.

“During the New Year, let A-Jing bring his girlfriend home so we can celebrate the Spring Festival together!”

Ren Yanfu replied: “Sure! @RenYanjing. Grandma says you should bring her home for New Year. Did you hear that?”

Tang Zhen became tired after playing for a while.

Ren Yanjing asked her, “Do you want to try sliding down from the top?”

Tang Zhen nodded slightly. “I do.”

Then she paused and added, “But I’m scared.”

She was a complete beginner.

Ren Yanjing didn’t mind. “It’s fine. I’ll hold you while we slide.”

Tang Zhen blinked. “Huh?”

Ren Yanjing had been skiing since he was a child. The beginner slope was completely trivial for him. He was very intelligent and could easily pick up almost anything he tried.

He tested the slope once himself first. After confirming there was absolutely no problem, he chose the gentlest incline and slowly slid down while holding Tang Zhen in his arms.

Throughout the entire process, Tang Zhen only dared to hold onto his neck tightly, afraid she might fall.

But the scene she had imagined never happened.

The male lead was even more reliable than she had thought.

At least during the whole process, his hands were steady, and the skiing speed wasn’t fast. They reached the bottom smoothly without any trouble.

Just when she had started enjoying the fun of skiing, it was already over.

After trying it once, Tang Zhen wanted to do it a second time.

But the second time, Ren Yanjing didn’t agree so easily.

Tang Zhen asked softly, “Then what do I have to do for you to hold me while we slide again?”

Ren Yanjing leaned slightly closer to her.

“Call me husband.”

Tang Zhen’s eyes widened slightly. “What?”

Ren Yanjing repeated, “Call me ‘husband,’ and I’ll hold you while we slide.”

000 exploded with excitement.

【Ahhhhh! The male lead is so bad, I love it.】

【Is the male lead trying to get benefits for himself?】

【But that title is so embarrassing!】

【Xiao Zhen, even if you dare say it, I don’t dare listen.】

【So the question is—Xiao Zhen, do you dare say it?】

Sanquan, don’t think I don’t know you’re using a provocation tactic!

But even with that tactic, Tang Zhen really couldn’t say it.

What should she do? The male lead belonged to the heroine.

A title like “husband” should also belong exclusively to the heroine.

If she used it now, what would the heroine call him later?

If she had already used the title, could the heroine still use it afterward?

Tang Zhen bit her lip and asked quietly, “Can we change it to something else?”

Ren Yanjing looked at her seriously. “Why don’t you want to?”

Tang Zhen acted coquettishly. “There are too many people around.”

“So next time, when it’s just the two of us, you’ll be willing?”

Actually, not really.

But that was something for the future.

Who knew when the next time would be?

As long as she used the tactic of dragging things out, she could probably delay it until the day they broke up.

After all, there were only about two months left before their breakup.

So in the end, Tang Zhen still nodded.

“…Okay.”

“Fine. Then kiss me.”

Tang Zhen was already very experienced at kissing his cheek.

She simply stood on tiptoe and quickly kissed his left cheek.

After she kissed one side, Ren Yanjing turned his other cheek toward her.

“Come on, baby, there’s still this side.”

Smack.

This time Tang Zhen kissed his right cheek.

One kiss on each side.

Ren Yanjing was satisfied.

From afar, Ren Yanfu and Ren Yanli, who had been watching the whole scene, laughed so hard they could barely stand it.

This time it was Ren Yanli who posted two photos he had openly taken into the family group chat.

“Who said before that Brother Jing didn’t understand romance? Looks like he knows exactly what he’s doing.”

The younger relatives of the same generation quickly joined the conversation.

“Before this, Cousin Jing was totally a straight guy. He even made Sister Huihui cry several times.”

“So maybe he wasn’t a straight guy—maybe the person just wasn’t right?”

“Xiao Ba, do you want to die? If Sister Huihui sees that comment, you’re finished.”

“Sigh… Sister Huihui is probably going to be heartbroken this time.”

“Brother Yanfu, where are you guys? I want to come watch too.”

“I want to see sister-in-law!”

Ren Yanfu replied:

“Next time. I think the two of them are about to leave.”

After being held by Ren Yanjing for two ski runs, Tang Zhen was satisfied, and Ren Yanjing was satisfied as well.

Two completely satisfied people decided to head back.

Ren Yanfu and Ren Yanli walked over and invited them to have dinner together.

Their cousin and younger cousin were too enthusiastic, so Ren Yanjing had no choice but to agree.

The originally planned romantic dinner for two was ruined—now there were two extra third wheels.

While they were having dinner, Zhou Xusi’s entrepreneurship experience-sharing lecture had also begun.

Many people had come specifically for him.

The entire lecture hall was full.

Some people even had to stand because there weren’t enough seats. Everywhere with space had someone in it.

Li Ran also attended the lecture.

After listening to the entire talk, she felt that Zhou Xusi’s success was not accidental—it was inevitable.

He had clear goals, understood the market well, and possessed ability, talent, and charisma.

After the sharing session ended, it was time for the Q&A segment.

However, some students at B University were rebellious.

The second student who grabbed the chance to ask a question didn’t ask about entrepreneurship at all. Instead, he asked about Zhou Xusi’s love life.

“President Zhou, do you have a girlfriend?”

Zhou Xusi smiled calmly.

“No. I’m single.”

The student continued, “Then President Zhou, do you have someone you like?”

This time, Zhou Xusi fell silent.

Everyone present understood immediately.

It seemed he did have someone he liked.

They just didn’t know what kind of person it was—someone who hadn’t even been won over yet by someone as outstanding as President Zhou.

The host quickly stepped in to smooth things over.

“Please avoid asking President Zhou unrelated questions. Thank you for your cooperation.”

The photo that Lu Yu had secretly taken and posted on the campus wall had been deleted too quickly.

So no one recognized who the other person in the photo was.

Li Ran also felt a little curious.

Who exactly was the person Zhou Xusi liked?
