Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 126 She Was Waiting For Him To Take The Initiative

“Lie down and rest for a while.” Julian carried Annalise back to the bedroom and placed her on their bed. His tone

was gentle.

“I’ll go take a shower,” Annalise said softly.

She felt sweaty and sticky.

Annalise was actually a little worried that Julian might misunderstand her when she said that she was going

to shower at this time.

However, she really did need a shower.

This was because she smelled of sweat and medicine.

Even if he misunderstood, she did not want to be conceited about things. They were married, and she had already

fallen in love with him. She just wanted to follow her heart.

“Go on.” Julian looked at Annalise gently.

He looked at her with such a gentle gaze that it made her embarrassed to look at him directly. She quickly grab her

clothes and went to take a shower.

After taking her shower, Annalise found Julian sitting on the bed, typing on his computer keyboard.

When he saw her, he stopped typing and called her gently, “Come over!”

Why was she feeling nervous?

Her heart suddenly beat faster.

However, when she met his gentle gaze and thought of his broad and sturdy back, she suddenly felt very willing to

accept him.

However, she felt a little shy doing it with him in broad daylight.

She walked over and gave him her hand.

“Let’s sleep!” he said.

Upon hearing those words, Annalise felt her ears burn.

She climbed onto the bed and snuggled into their blanket.

She would never take the initiative for such matters.

She waited for him to take the initiative.

She was already mentally prepared, but she was still a little nervous.

After quite a while, nothing happened.

She pricked up her ears and heard him typing on his keyboard again.

So, was she overthinking?

“Gosh! How embarrassing!” she thought to herself.

Thankfully, Julian could not read minds. Otherwise, it would be too awkward and embarrassing.

Instead of Julian, it was herself who was thinking of such thoughts.

She was too dirty-minded.

Julian noticed that Annalise was still awake. He patted her head. “Sleep for a bit. Rest well.”, he said gently to her.

“Okay,” she immediately replied and closed her eyes tightly.

Julian smiled gently again. A hint of helplessness flashed across his eyes before he looked back at the content on his

computer screen.

He was working. While Annalise was showering, he delegated some important work and approved some critical

payments.

While she slept, he monitored the progress of his other work tasks.

It was not true that he was not thinking about that matter. On the contrary, his mind was filled with images of their

harmonious union, of them making sweet love. Just thinking about it, made him very excited.

However, he was afraid that he would go overboard during their first time together and tire her out.

She was already exhausted from refining those elixir pills. She had also made arrangements to treat Preston in the

afternoon. If he tires her out further, it would be too hard on her.

Moreover, he wanted a sense of ritual.

Tonight would be fine.

After they had completed what they needed to do for the day, he will switch off his cell phone and they will enjoy

their lovely consummation.

As he thought about this, he had to forcibly restrain himself.

Annalise went to treat Preston in the afternoon..

Although Preston’s intelligence was only that of a child, his memory was not bad. He remembered Annalise.

Whenever he saw Annalise, he would want to be close to her and ask her to play with him.

“Shall we compete in sports today?” Annalise suggested with a smile.

“Alright, alright. We can compete in anything.” Preston nodded vigorously.

“Let’s jump rope first and see and who can complete 500 jumps in the shortest time,” Annalise said.

She had checked his pulse previously and found that his stamina was much weaker than that of an ordinary adult

man. In addition, his Qi and blood were also weak.

She even specifically asked Lianne about Preston’s diet, Lianne said that Preston had nutritious and well-balanced

meals because of their two cooks. One of them had a nutritionist qualification and the other was someone she

trusted.

If his blood and qi deficiency was not due to his diet, it meant that his body was not absorbing nutrients well.

If he could not absorb nutrition well, it would either be a gastrointestinal problem or because he could not sleep well

which affected the balance of his five viscera.

When she took his pulse, she did not find any gastrointestinal problems with Preston. Instead, he was fraught with

emotional disturbances, insomnia, and excessive dreaming.

Preston’s current intelligence was equivalent to that of a seven-year-old, a considerably carefree age. He was not

pretending, so he should not have any worries.

If he did not have any worries but still have difficulty sleeping, it was probably something in his subconscious that

affected his sleep.

Perhaps, he often dreamed of strange things and slept uneasily.

She planned to improve his body condition before letting him undergo psychological treatment.

In his situation, the treatment could be slower. After all, he was not dying any time soon, so his treatment need not

be hasty.

He could start with his physical strength. If his physical strength improves, his sleep might also improve, leading to a

virtuous cycle for his condition.

Preston immediately raised his hand. “Sure! I know how to jump rope. I can also dance very well.” “Alright, you’ll

jump first. I’ll time you. When I jump later, remember to also time me,” Annalise said.

“Alright!” Preston was very happy.

The six-foot-two man was as happy as a child.

Lianne felt extremely uncomfortable and turned her head away.

Annalise suggested going outside to jump since it was more spacious.

Everyone moved to the backyard.

Preston took the rope and began to jump. He counted by himself, and he was especially serious. “One, two, three,

four, five… eighty…”

He jumped more than 200 times in one go. He was so tired that he was panting. He threw the rope on the

ground and propped his hands on his thighs. He asked Annalise, “Does my rest time count? Does it count?”

“It doesn’t count,” Annalise said.

She had overestimated his stamina. She did not expect him to be so tired after jumping two hundred times.

When Preston heard that she was not going to time him when he was taking a break, he grinned innocently. “That’s

good. I’m so tired. If you don’t allow me to rest, I have to continue jumping now.”

“You can rest, but you can’t rest the next time we compete. So, you have to practice jumping rope every day,”

Annalise said.

Preston’s eyes lit up. “When are we competing next time?”

Annalise smiled and said, “In ten days.”

“Alright, alright. I’ll definitely train hard for the next ten days.” Preston recovered his breath and reminded Annalise,

“Continue recording the time. I’m going to start jumping.”

He began to jump again, counting from two hundred to five hundred.

After jumping to 500, he threw the rope and lay down on the bench in the backyard.

Annalise took a look at Preston’s condition and said to Lianne, “Lianne, you might have to find physical training

teacher. His physical fitness is relatively poor.”

“Alright, I’ll arrange it immediately.” Lianne felt that Annalise’s suggestion was very good.

She felt a little guilty. If Annalise had not come to treat Preston, she would not have known that Jualian’s physical

fitness was so poor.

In the past, Preston could be considered a king of physical fitness. He could run ten kilometers in one go without

panting. Now, he was panting after jumping only 200 times.

“It’s your turn. I’ll time you.” Preston got up from the bench and said to Annalise.

Julian felt that Annalise had been working too hard today refining pills today. He said, “Let me jump.”

Actually, he did not like jumping rope. Being tall, he really looked silly when he jump rope, but he did not want

Annalise to work too hard.
