WMWH Chapter 4

Cloudy Weather | Friday, June 30, 2019.

Every Friday was my wife’s fasting day. On this day, no meat was allowed, only vegetarian dishes were cooked

As usual, when I was about to throw away a plate of baby cabbage soup that had failed, suddenly, my wife walked in.

Did you complain to the restaurant about the waiter? This was exactly what my wife said.

I nodded. I was just going to explain further I also complained to the 315 Consumer Association, but my wife said——

He has already been fired by the manager!

I was holding a pot of cabbage soup and froze.

You can eat dinner by yourself.

After saying this, my wife took the car keys and left.

I dumped the cabbage soup, changed my clothes and shoes, grabbed my phone, and chased after him.

In order to prevent my wife from getting lost, I secretly installed a tracking system on his mobile phone. Only I know this secret, neither my wife nor my mother and father.

Because it was a secret.

When I got in the car and started the engine, a question suddenly popped up in my mind: Why should I chase him down? Why don’t I wait at home?

I thought about it for a while and found that it was because of something wrong with what my wife said. He asked me to eat dinner by myself, but I made dinner for two people, and I couldn’t finish it if I was the only one.

I’m going to call my wife home for dinner.

The green circle on my phone finally stopped after passing through most of the urban area.

I originally wanted to park behind my wife’s car, but there was no room in the front or back of his car, and parking in the middle of the street took up space. So I had to take some time to park the car on another street and walk back.

The phone showed that my wife had entered a residential building. I looked at the architectural space plan at the entrance and found that this residential building had 26 floors, with eight households on each floor, which meant there were a total of 204 households.

I entered the building and started knocking from room 101.

When I reached 901 on the ninth floor, I was about to knock on the door when my wife opened it and walked out. He was surprised to see me and asked: Why you are here? I was about to answer when I saw a stranger out of the corner of my eye, my throat got stuck.

My wife didn’t ask any more questions, took my hand, and left.

Xiao Lisheng!

Xiao Lisheng is my wife’s name. My wife didn’t look back, but I couldn’t help but look back. He called my wife by his name. On the list of #298 people who know my wife#, I can say with certainty that there was no such person in front of me.

I looked at him blankly, and began to scan his face, facial features, clothing, hairstyle, figure, and shoe size, and planned to go home and update the list.

He gave me a smile, licked his lips, and glanced at my wife again.

I remembered right then.

He was the waiter who got fired.

I looked at him expressionlessly.

I am Luo Bin, Lisheng’s ex-boyfriend.

I looked at him blankly, wrote “Li Sheng’s ex-boyfriend” on the back of his database, and then took my wife’s hand and walked out of the safe passage.

Climbed down nine flights of stairs.

I love my wife.

 

Cloudy Day | Friday, July 4th, 2019.

When my wife and I came back that day, neither of us spoke.

He didn’t say he wanted to eat, nor did he say anything about the man named Luo Bin back then.

My wife didn’t want to talk, and I didn’t know how to ask.

I also encountered this situation when I was chasing my wife back then. I wanted to know where he lived, where he worked, and what time did he leave work, but I didn’t dare to ask.

Later, I called “xx Service Firm” and they told me all about the situation. So, this time I picked up my phone and pressed the number again.

I said I wanted to know what “Xiao Lisheng’s ex-boyfriend” meant.

Five days later, they sent me a thick envelope.

I opened the envelope and the tears fell.

Inside were stacks of photos, showing my pretty wife and that Luo Bin.

I saw them riding bicycles to school together, doing homework together, playing basketball together, watching TV together, smiling together at the door of the church, eating the same meal, and sleeping in the same bed!

My wife was also holding his hand!

My wife also read him a Bible prayer!

My wife even gave him a chance to see him doing a ballet dance alone!

I cried until my eyes were dazzled, thinking of the three date notebooks that I had written densely.

I felt like all my dates were fake.

If that was the case then I dated and married a fake wife.

When my wife came back in the evening, I had wiped away my tears and was cooking in the kitchen. I couldn’t bear to let my wife go hungry. But to show my sadness and anger I made a completely vegetarian dish without any minced meat.

I thought that if I did this, my wife would ask me why I didn’t have meat and say that he wasn’t happy with the meal. So I could take that opportunity to tell him that I already knew about his relationship with his ex-boyfriend, and then let him coax me he had to ride a bicycle with me, write together, play basketball, watch a movie, take photos at the door of the church, hold my hand, read me prayers, and dance a ballet for me. Then, I will immediately forgive him and take out the roasted teriyaki chicken legs.

In the end, my wife ate the cabbage with a satisfied look on his face.

I looked at the calendar and found that today was Friday, and my wife’s fasting day, so he needed to eat vegetarian.

What should I do? I’m going to cry by myself.

But I still love him.
