"..ngh!"
"Wait! Stop! Stop!"
"...S-slow-ah!"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"...Continue?"
"......Mm."
The sound of splashing water and m.o.a.ns echoed within the bathroom for the whole duration of their bath. In that short amount of time, she felt like her body wasnât hers anymore. Lu Chen had to carry her out and placed her on the bed.
Xiu Mei felt like her whole body was falling apart. After beating up Lu Chen with the last bout of her energy, she could barely drag her whole body to the wardrobe to change. She glared at the culprit the entire breakfast until Lu Qiang received the lunch prepared by the chef.
He didnât complain but Lu Qiang pitifully stared at his lunch and glanced at her side before silently putting it in his bag. His back when he was picking up his backpack looked so pitiful making her want to hug and apologize to him.
"My dear love, mommy will make it up to you tonight okay? Iâll stay in your room tonight?"
Lu Qiangâs eyes sparkled while nodding his head.
"Is that a promise?" He pulled out his pinky finger.
"Promise."
On the side, Lu Chenâs expression darkened.
She pretended that he didnât see it but she couldnât stop her chuckle.
Heh. Did he think that he could get away with what he did this morning?
Sheâs not that generous to forgive him easily. This will at least let him suffer this much.
When Lu Qiang got out first to go to their car, Xiu Mei felt a tug on her hand.
Turning around, she bumped onto her husbandâs c.h.e.s.t while he took this opportunity to wrap his arms around her waist.
"What are you doing?!"
Xiu Mei blushed as she thought how many people are watching them right now. The helpers, butler...ah!!
Contrary to his actions, Lu Chen didnât have much expression on his face but after spending so much time with him, Xiu Mei instantly saw the small curl on the edge of his lips.
He was even subtly making circles on her waist, a habit he liked to do every time he was trying to arouse her before doing the deed.
She grew angrier.
"LU.CHEN." She angrily mouthed.
"Yes, wife?"
He kept his blank expression and his voice sounded as if he wasnât doing anything, yet strangely, Xiu Mei felt like there was a tone of teasing mixed in his sentence.
She felt her anger peaking, so lifting up her foot, she stabbed his foot with her 6-inch stilettos that could probably a weapon for self-defense.
Lu Chen stiffened when he felt a stabbing pain from his foot but he still kept his cool without letting go of his wife.
Itâs not like he hasnât experienced getting shot or stabbed before ah. This is no big deal. At least, thatâs what he thought while he bit the inside of his mouth when his wifeâs stilettos kept her heels on his foot while stepping on him harder.
Of course, Xiu Mei wouldnât miss this small action of his.
"Hubby, youâre so adorable you know that?" She flashed a knowing smile as she reached out to pinch his cheeks whilst she kept pressing on his foot.
"M-Mhm." Lu Chen replied in a low tone. He could only helplessly watch the playful smile on his wifeâs face while he suffered what he thought was more painful than getting shot in his stomach.
On the other hand, Xiu Mei raised her brow.
Still not succ.u.mbing, huh.
She was just about to victimize his other foot when Lu Qiang appeared behind her.
"Mom? Dad? Arenât we going yet?" His head appeared behind the door, looking at the two people hugging each other.
Xiu Mei quickly got off Lu Chenâs foot and hastily pushed him away. Lu Chen didnât intend on further angering his wife so he loosened his hold and let her escape.
Meanwhile, Lu Qiang frowned seeing his father getting all touchy with his mother.
He stomped over, glared at his Dad then grabbed her mother and dragged her outside with him.
Xiu Mei silently laughed at Lu Qiangâs innocent glare while letting him drag her outside. But before she turned from the door, she glanced behind her and stuck her tongue out to Lu Chen like a child.
Lu Chen chuckled at his wifeâs antics before following after the two of them. Lu Qiang sat in between the two, separating his father and mother.
As an a.d.u.l.t person, Lu Chen generously forgave his son that kept glaring at him. Besides, heâs going to be dropped off at school later on. Whatâs the fuss if heâs the one still spending more time with his wife than the little kid.
If Xiu Mei were to know what childish thoughts Lu Chen had on his head, she would surely laugh out loud.
The two dropped off Lu Qiang and drove to work. This time, Lu Chen scooted over to his wifeâs side and held her hand.
"Let go, you rogue." She held grudges from this morningâs exercise.
"Donât worry, Iâm only rogue to you."
"...hooligan!"
And so, what greeted the employees that morning was the scene of their president chasing after his secretary while the secretary was avoiding their presidentâs attempt to hold hands with her.
It was an unimaginable picture that they never dreamed of that they would get to see for the rest of their life and so five minutes later in their company gossip forum, appeared this same scene and lots of comments from the witnesses this morning.
Thatâs how the emperor chasing after the empress quickly spread throughout the Lu Corporation, the two protagonists unaware of them suddenly getting the top spot in the companyâs forum.
