Unpredictable Marriage.

Chen Lihua looked down to check the dress out, and she discovered that her chest that was exposed, was not too good, so she listened to him and changed into another dress.

"Mmhmm! This one is better." Liu Longwei said with a smile of satisfaction as he gazed at her.

Chen Lihua smiled softly as she put on a big sweater, and Liu Longwei helped her with the windbreakers.

"Thank you! She said to him as she walked to her vanity table. She picked up a lipgloss and before she could smear the stuff on her lips, Liu Longwei snatched it from her.

Empty-handed, Chen Lihua glanced at him in surprise. "What was that for?."

Liu Longwei studied the body of the lipgloss with keen interest. Seeing nothing wrong with it, he handed it back to her.

"I wanted to make sure it didn't have any chemical that would be harmful to the baby." He said in reply.

"This one is safe. I don't use anything that has harmful chemicals, I don't want to ruin my skin." Chen Lihua replied as she glanced at herself in the mirror as she applied the light pink lipgloss on her lips.

Next, she picked up her vanilla-scented perfume. As she sniffed the bottle without opening it, her face immediately squeezed in a frown as she quickly put the bottle down.

"You don't like the scent?." Liu Longwei asked from the side.

Chen Lihua nodded as she covered her nose with her palm, but the problem seemed to get worst, so she moved her hand away from her nose.

"Gosh! It smells horrible. I can't even stand the scent. Since when did the scent of my favorite perfume start to irritate me?." Chen Lihua asked no one in particular as she wiped her hand on her dress.

She looked angry!

"Sorry... Maybe the baby doesn't like it. Are you alright?." Liu Longwei asked as he watched her actions.

"I'm fine." Chen Lihua replied as she started looking for something on the vanity table.

"Where did the other perfume go to?." She asked as her forehead creased further.

Liu Longwei looked alarmed by the sudden question. But then, he went back to his usual self, pretending that nothing was wrong.

"Darling, did you see the other perfume?." Chen Lihua asked as she gazed at him, she seemed annoyed.

"Mmmm maybe no. Why don't you use mine for the time being?" Liu Longwei said as he passed his perfume to her, but she rejected it.

Chen Lihua pushed his hand away and said with a scrunched-up nose "I don't want it. Who knows, I might even throw up, and that will ruin my mood further."

"It seems like the servants are slacking off in their job." Chen Lihua murmured to herself 

"Alright let's go, I don't want to be late looking for perfume." Chen Lihua said as she grabbed her white coat and handbag.

"I will take that for you, you can put this one on." Liu Longwei said as he took the bag and coat from her, as he passed a mask to her.

"What do I need the mask for?." Chen Lihua asked as she took the mask from him, and lead the way out.

"Sandstorm." Liu Longwei gave a simple reply as he picked up his work briefcase from the bed, and walked out of the room with his wife.

Chen Lihua smiled, "I won't be outdoor, so I don't need the mask." She said as she waved the mask in her hand.

"Hold onto it, you might need it some other time." Liu Longwei said to her as he entered the elevator with her.

This was the month of March, which is the beginning of Spring. Because of the sandstorm and more pollen in the air, it is suggested to wear a mask when there is an outdoor activity.

It is also advisable to wear clothes such as; windbreakers, jackets, sweaters and other clothes to keep warm.

After New Year's day, Liu Huiling spent one more week at the Liu Villa, before going back to her home.

She had little expectations from what used to be a home to her.

Her mother-in-law asked her to come over to the family house, but she said she had so many things to at work, so she couldn't make it.

And when her mother-in-law asked her son about it, he said the same thing as she did.

Zhang Wei didn't want his mother to know he wasn't on good terms with his wife, so he lied as well, for he knew that she would find out they were not on good terms if she observed their actions towards each other for two hours.

He didn't want to give any explanation, so he would do anything to avoid it.

Since her daughter-in-law didn't bring the children to spend the new year with her, and the way Liu Huiling has always been coming up with excuses, and always given reasons on why she couldn't come over, she started suspecting that something was wrong.

So she decided to visit them without informing any of them. But before that, she phoned Liu Huiling to know if she would be seeing her in the house any time soon.

The woman received a negative reply. Liu Huiling said she was sick, and so couldn't make a trip back to the house.

Now that her daughter-in-law has made things easier for her, she decided to visit them unannounced.

On this day, Liu Huiling was shocked beyond measure to her mother-in-law in her house, helping out in the kitchen when she got home from work.

"You are back?." Her mother-in-law asked with a smile on her face.

"Yeah. Mother, what are you doing here?." Liu Huiling asked as she walked into the kitchen.

"Is that how you should welcome me?." Her mother-in-law berated in a kind tone as she dished out food from the pot.

"Mother this is like a second home to you, so you don't need to be treated like a guest. I'm only surprised to see you because you didn't inform me of your coming here". Liu Huiling replied.

"Since you didn't want to come over to see me, I decided to make the trip myself. After all, I can still move about, I'm not bedridden." Her mother-in-law retorted.
