My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!-Chapter 206 - 118 Temporary Husband and Wife

Chang’an North District.

In a certain courtyard.

Li Nuo gave Li Anning a bow with his hands and said with an apologetic tone, "Just now, I did not mean any offense, I hope the Princess can forgive me."

The relationship between Song Yu and his wife was very good, and in order to avoid suspicion, they had to act the part convincingly.

Li Anning waved her hand, indicating that she did not mind in the slightest and said, "It’s all for the case, why mention it? Do I seem like an unreasonable person?"

She quickly shifted the topic and asked, "By the way, how are things on your end?"

Li Nuo took out a waist card and replied, "You could say I’ve taken the first step."

Looking at the Chief’s waist card in Li Nuo’s hand, Li Anning wasn’t surprised at all.

She had a strange intuition that as long as it was something he wanted to do, he would definitely be able to do it.

Li Nuo continued, "The people of the Thief Sect are very cautious. They didn’t gather everyone together, but instead are holding trials in batches, so I didn’t make a move with you all. However, in a few days, there will be another great opportunity. The higher-ups of the Thief Sect will gather in one place. If we can capture them all in one fell swoop and trace back from there, eliminating the Thief Sect will be no problem..."

Upon hearing this, a look of expectation also appeared on Li Anning’s face.

Solving an ordinary murder case barely increased one’s cultivation, but if they could eliminate this thief organization, even with her fourth realm cultivation, she would receive an incredibly substantial reward.

She looked at Li Nuo and asked, "So what do we do now?"

Li Nuo thought for a moment and said, "I fear I have to inconvenience the Princess for a few more days. They still don’t trust me completely. If nothing unexpected happens, these people from the Thief Sect will definitely arrange for someone to monitor our every move in the next few days. You’ll need to continue playing this role with me for a few more days..."

Li Anning readily agreed, saying, "No problem!"

Acting alongside Li Nuo was far more interesting than stamping case files at the Ministry of Justice.

Moreover, the more she was involved in the investigation, the greater the rewards she would receive.

It was her first time engaging in such a task, and the thought alone was its own kind of thrill.

Compared to an eager Li Anning, Li Nuo felt somewhat gloomy.

He had already endured three days, and he could have finished today, but for the sake of maximizing the outcome, he had to wait a few more days.

The next few days would be crucial, as they would determine whether he could gain the trust of the Thief Sect.

Any slight mistake could lead to total failure and all his efforts being wasted.

There were people surveilling him everywhere outside, and to prevent any slip-ups, he definitely could not go home during these days.

He had to find a way to send word to his wife, so as not to worry them.

Soon, there was a knock on the door. Li Nuo opened the door to see Housekeeper Wu, who had also changed into a set of worn clothes, come in. After closing the door, Housekeeper Wu said to Li Nuo, "Someone was probing for information about Young Master just now. Fortunately, the Young Master had planned ahead. There are a few shady figures at several street corners outside, most likely keeping an eye on the Young Master..."

Given the carefulness of the Thief Sect, they definitely would not easily trust a newcomer.

All of this was within Li Nuo’s expectations.

They had made a lot of preparations for this mission.

About a dozen households in the vicinity were their people.

Housekeeper Wu played the role of his neighbor.

Li Anning, on the other hand, played the role of his wife.

The original master of this house was called Song Yu, who actually had a wife.

The couple lived together in this small courtyard.

Although Li Nuo also had a wife, it was more suitable for Li Anning to play Song Yu’s wife’s role than his own wife.

One reason was that Song Yu’s wife had a proud chest, and if his wife were to play the role, they would need to stuff the clothes.

Li Anning did not need that, as she fit the role naturally and even had room to spare.

But the more important reason was that his wife’s acting skills were not up to par, letting her play the role would definitely give them away, so Li Nuo didn’t even suggest it.

The Princess, being a Law Practitioner, gained vastly different benefits from being personally involved in the action compared to just waiting for the outcome.

No matter how you looked at it, she was the most suitable person to play this role.

Li Nuo looked at Housekeeper Wu and said, "Don’t worry about those people. However, please send someone back to the Song Residence to pass a message. Tell my wife I won’t be going back in the next few days and not to worry about me."

Housekeeper Wu nodded and said, "Then this Old Servant should leave now. Staying here too long might raise suspicions."

Before leaving, Housekeeper Wu took some rice that Li Nuo had taken out of the rice bag to take back with him.

It was quite normal for neighbors to borrow some grain, so it wouldn’t arouse suspicion.

After Housekeeper Wu left, Li Nuo was pondering how to arrange the next few days. As he turned his head, he saw Li Anning standing in the courtyard lost in thought.

Li Nuo looked at her and asked, "What’s wrong?"

Li Anning sighed and said with some regret, "I never expected that the first man to hold me in his arms would be you..."

Although she did not blame Li Nuo, her tone was full of regret.

Clearly, her true feelings were that it mattered to her.

This was something with which Li Nuo did not agree.

The love between Song Yu and his wife was strong, and they often engaged in such intimate actions. He was just trying not to reveal any flaws.

Besides, it was also his first time.

Not only was hugging a first for him, but even holding hands was a first.

His wife had never held him like that...

Well, his wife had held him, but it was a horizontal hold.

Li Nuo mumbled to himself as he walked towards the house, "As if it isn’t a first time for me too..."

Li Anning was slightly startled and said in surprise, "What did you say?"

Li Nuo shook his head, "Nothing."

Li Anning clearly heard Li Nuo’s muttering and said with some amazement, "You’ve been married so long, and yet you’ve never even held her? No wonder I always thought that you two looked odd, hardly resembling a normal married couple..."
