The depth of one's heart cannot be conveyed through words, and Pei Xuan, an intelligent scholar, knew this well. Her voice was smooth as pear blossom wine and every word she spoke was gentle and nuanced, but also alluring and praiseworthy.

Cui Ti stared at her in disbelief, unable to fathom how this husband of hers could be so captivating and asked softly, "Really?."

Pei Xuan's eyes sparkled with affection as she replied in a matter of seconds, "Absolutely."

Overwhelmed with emotion, Cui Ti couldn't help but burst into tears at Pei Xuan's affectionate words. Pei Xuan, who was usually composed and dignified, immediately kneeled before her and gently wiped her tears away, "My beloved wife, why are you crying?."

Embarrassed, Cui Ti looked away and murmured, "I'm not crying."

Pei Xuan knew she was lying, but didn't push the matter.

No matter how dull Pei Xuan was, she knew that she was annoyed with her, so she said embarrassingly with a blushing face, "You asked me, I, I didn't mean to offend you..."

Pei Xuan believed that her repeated usage of the word "like" offended the reserved and sensitive girl in front of her, and she was blaming herself, but Cui Ti did not pay any mind to it. She continued crying while stomping on Pei Xuan's embroidered shoes that were in a worse state than when she had first worn them.

Nonetheless, Pei Xuan found her charming, even when she was angry and stepping on her feet.

As Cui Ti stepped on Pei Xuan's foot, she couldn't help but smile, but even though she tried to hide it, Cui Ti could see it out of the corner of her eye.

She wondered how her husband could laugh even when being trampled on, thinking she must be a fool.

Then, Cui Ti softly sobbed, reflecting on the many nights she spent in her previous life worrying about her relationship with Pei Xuan. If she truly loved her, why did she keep her at a distance?.

"Wife.." Pei Xuan interrupted her thoughts, pulling at her sleeve.

Cui Ti realized that she had never really had a chance to express her anger or even her true feelings that were bottled up with Pei Xuan in her past life.

If she didn't have the ability to 'see', she would definitely be angry with Pei Xuan who distanced herself from her.

But since her spiritual eyes were able to let her see, she knew that this person was a woman who was elegant and weak inside, and she couldn't help but excuse Pei Xuan's attitude.

She understood that Pei Xuan's coldness towards her was not intentional, but rather a result of trying to protect the secret of her gender. It was a matter that was too important to be taken lightly and had nothing to do with her lack of love for Cui Ti.

However now, when Cui Ti thought of the lively and short word "love", her heart thumped rapidly as if a herd of rabbits were stampeding.

Cui Ti clutched her chest, causing Pei Xuan's concerned eyes to shift towards her. Her beautiful brows furrowed in worry as she asked, "Wife, are you feeling sick?."

Trying to hide the redness on her face, Cui Ti muttered in a low voice, "No... Why do you ask?."

On the first day of them being a married couple, Pei Xuan was caught off guard by her wife's ability to fight back. Despite feeling dazed, seeing her blushing face and red earlobes, she couldn't help but feel a sense of happiness. The corners of her lips curled up as she admitted, "There was no reason!."

Cui Ti could see Pei Xuan's smug expression and it made her feel both angry and ashamed. However, as someone who had lived two lives, she knew there was no reason to settle scores with an innocent and ignorant person in this life. She withdrew her foot, glanced at Pei Xuan's brocade boots, and said softly: "I'm fine, but for you, does it hurt?."
