Chapitre 82: The Problem of Education (6)

Both Xiu Ling and Lin Kang turned to the source of the disturbance. Lin Xi puffed up his cheeks resentfully and was levelling them a look that seemed to say, 'You two done? Aren't we here because of me? You promised to not let go, so what about that?! Hmmph, liars!"

Then he spun his swim ring around in the water and paddled away like he had given up hope on these two individuals. Xiu Ling was pretty sure she caught her son roll his eyes at them.

In any case, Xiu Ling quickly waded through the water to catch up to her son who was throwing a fit, one that she felt was justified. They did forget about him for that brief moment, just like how the two of them had forgotten completely about Lin Kang who still stood where he was with the pool water lapping around him.

He was still thinking about what had happened earlier. This was the first time the man was literally at a loss for words. That was something that did not happen often for Lin Kang.

When Xiu Ling first arrived at Lin family, she was as thin as a skeleton, there was barely any meat hanging on her bones. However, with the rich man's diet served at the Lin household, Xiu Ling had filled in nicely. She was by no means fat but at least now she did not look like a starving victim.

When Lin Kang held her earlier, he could feel her wonderful curves against his touch and Lin Kang had to admit, it felt nice. He felt a tingle at the southern region of his body.

He explained it as an understandable reaction of a healthy male body when he was in close proximity with a member of the opposite sex. On top of that, it was probably also due to his pent-up sexual frustration from his long period of abstinence.

'Yes, that has to be it. It is merely a natural bodily reaction from close physical contact, nothing more and nothing less. It is simply lust...' Lin Kang convinced himself.

However, this proposition of his failed to explain one very important detail, which was his recent lack of interest in the female personal secretaries that paraded in and out of his office. It was because of this that the man had not had any release recently.

If Lin Kang's member was as... shall we say, trigger-happy as he believed then why hadn't his body reacted to these secretaries who were younger and more open to sexual favours than Xiu Ling? Why did his body only show some form of reaction when he was close to his wife?

These were the questions that Lin Kang did not have the time to answer because he needed rush to the bathroom attached to the pool to take a cold shower before he was caught making an unsavory scene at the public pool.

Yes, Lin Kang was powerful but not powerful enough to silence a case of him lusting over children who were trying to learn how to swim.

While Lin Kang was off trying to resolve his problem, Xiu Ling played with Lin Xi who had decided to forgive her. As she watched her son play with the water, Xiu Ling came to a realization.

While she admitted that these classes had their merits, they would also take her son away from her. In other words, Lin Xi's schedule would be so choked full with learning that he would have no time to spend with his family.

After a day at the pool, Xiu Ling realized how much she valued spending time with her son, watching him grow and with her own selfishness in mind, she decided against a hectic schedule for Lin Xi. Her husband was right, it was still too soon for their child and he should have a more free and fulfilling childhood accompanied and surrounded by his family first before he was forced to take on so many adult responsibilities.

Therefore, when Lin Kang returned from the bathroom, Xiu Ling not noticing the weird way her husband was acting, she told him of her decision. He agreed with her easily because that was his stance to begin with.

Then again, if Xiu Ling still agreed with Mrs. Lin, Lin Kang wondered whether he would be able to hold fast to his own stance. For some reason, he doubted he would be able to. He had a feeling even if Xiu Ling asked him to fetch her the stars in the sky, he would... but why was a question that he had yet to ask himself. Like most male main characters in romance webnovels, they could be inhumanely dense when it came to things related to relationship and romance.

After the decision was made, it was relayed back to Mrs. Lin. The word, angry was no longer adequate to describe what the elder woman was feeling. The betrayal stung. 'I know I should not have trusted that lowly woman! Shame on me for letting my guard down!'

Mrs. Lin had the impression that Xiu Ling was toying with her and the humiliation added to her already high level of anger. Their relationship reverted to how it was or rather, it had gotten even worse compared to before.

...

Joann was taking a stroll down the street alone. The sun was shining brightly and the world around her was abuzz with activity. There was a buzz of excitement in the air, the sign of a good day ahead but Joann was feeling the complete opposite internally.

Things between Joann and her daughter seemed to have lulled into a standstill. Joann wanted desperately to break the ice but something bigger and stronger than her desperation stood in the way, it was her pride.

Joann sighed to herself. She kicked a peddle that was sitting by the roadside to vent her frustration. Joann watched the little stone roll down the street and was about to move on when she heard someone mention her name.
