Han Muzi gave him a sideways glance, and after mulling over it, she began again, “I told her to leave today. We were not able to take over any of her tasks properly, so there are many things to do at the company right now.”
“I see,” Ye Moxuan replied again, then he added, “Take it easy with your work and don’t get too tired; don’t forget that you’re pregnant right now.”
She finally couldn’t help asking, “Are you not going to ask me why I let her resign? Or ask me why I told her to leave?”
The other party did not answer her questions. Right then, the light in front turned red and the car came to a stop at the red light. All of a sudden, he leaned his body toward her, grabbed her sharp chin, and kissed her.
“Mmph.” Her hands subconsciously pushed against his chest, trying to stop him from coming toward her. However, he was faster than her; he nimbly pried open her teeth and kissed her. There were more than 20 seconds left on the redlight. The kiss lasted until there were nearly 5 seconds left. Although it wasn’t that long, he had kissed her deeply. When they separated, she was panting heavily—unable to breathe smoothly.
“I don’t want to ask because it affects our communication.”
As the countdown ended, the light gradually changed. He calmly continued driving; his expression was so indifferent that it almost seemed like nothing had happened just now. On the other hand, Han Muzi’s face had reddened so much that she looked like she was going to bleed from it. The car window had been half open when he leaned over to kiss her. Right at that moment, she saw the people in the opposite car glancing over—probably having witnessed the kiss. How embarrassing!
Reaching her hands up, she held her blushing face and licked at her lips gloomily. “When you mentioned ‘communication’, you can’t be referring to this, right?” Without waiting for his answer, she retorted unhappily, “What bullsh*t! That’s just your excuse to take advantage of me.”
“Take advantage?” He narrowed his eyes and looked at her teasingly. “Weren’t you the one with an expression of pleasure on your face? How can you say I was taking advantage of you?”
“Ye Moxuan!”
“Hmm?”
“Shut your mouth!”
Who said I was enjoying it?! He is ruining my innocence! How could I possibly have had an expression of pleasure? That’s nonsense! The moment she got angry, her face turned red again. B*stard! Every time he wants to take advantage of me, not only would he deny doing so, he would even push the blame onto me!
Even when she had not done anything, he would drag her onto his lap and kiss her hungrily without her consent, then accuse her of seducing him. And now? He said that I had an expression of pleasure on my face! How is that possible?
Glancing sideways at her, Ye Moxuan saw that his wife was out of breath. At first, he wanted to tease her, but her emotions were unexpectedly unstable. Considering she was pregnant, he decided to stop his teasing. “Alright, I took advantage of you this time. I wanted to kiss you, okay?”
Snorting in her heart, Han Muzi replied in a huff, “It has always been like that!”
He did not continue to bicker with her over it and brought her to a restaurant instead. After getting a private room for two and ordering the dishes, he held her on his lap.
“What are you up to again?” She warily pushed him aside, but he was strong and held her securely. He had controlled his strength perfectly—she was unable to escape his embrace but was not hurt by it either. His burning gaze made her heart skip a beat, and she widened her eyes. “You can’t be thinking of—”
Before she finished speaking, he was already kissing her. Since they had just entered from the outside and the private room was air-conditioned, the temperature inside was still quite warm. Their bodies had yet to adjust to the inner temperature. When their lips touched, both their lips were cold.
Within a short while, she felt his cold, thin lips gradually becoming scorching hot as it caressed hers again and again. He held her face as he kissed her passionately, giving off a feeling similar to a person holding his greatest treasure in his hands.
Blinking her eyes, the cogs in her brain were turning quickly. Don’t tell me he is continuing the kiss in the private room because he was not satisfied with the kiss in the car? Or, did he bring me here because of some scheme he had in mind?
Deep in her thoughts, a sigh passed into her ears suddenly. Then, he muttered resentfully, “Are you so distracted because my skills are lacking?”
Coming back to her senses, she saw that his gaze—similar to that of a deep and profound wolf—seemed to have changed under the lights. It gave off the feeling that if she agreed with his previous statement, he would immediately devour her alive without a single bone left behind.
The thought gave her shivers down her spine and she strongly shook her head. “No, not at all.”
“No? Then, is it because I’m not giving it my all?”
This question he’s asking… She felt embarrassed on his behalf. Biting her lip, she reached out and pulled his ear. “Are you done with your questions? You know I would never answer those questions, so why do you keep asking? Besides, we’re here to eat, not to do other stuff! Behave yourself!”
Her sudden change caught him off guard. Moreover, she was using quite a lot of force, so he was in pain currently. In a flash, the ambiguous atmosphere from before was gone. Speechlessly staring at her for a bit, he finally grumbled, “You sure are good at ruining the mood.”
Withdrawing her hand, she got down from his lap. “Of course.” What if he became aroused if I had not ruined the mood? I can’t be with him right now, so wouldn’t it be more unbearable for him when the time comes?
In the end, she chose the seat furthest away from him and sat down, then sternly stated, “In the future, you are not allowed to kiss me without my consent.”
Puzzled, he squinted his eyes and stared at the woman who had intentionally chosen the seat furthest away from him. After a while, he sneered, “What do you mean by that?”
Han Muzi did not bother to give him an explanation; instead, she said, “Anyway, you heard me. If you kiss me again without my consent, I’m going to get very mad at you.”
Since coming back from abroad, they had not seen each other much due to work. Had they not come out for a meal together, they would barely have any chance to even speak with each other.
Ye Moxuan looked at the way she was seriously telling him off. At first, he wanted to fight for some benefits for himself. His fingertips tapped lightly against the table, then paused for a moment; his thin lips curled upward. Heh, she can tell me off, but… I don’t have to do as she says, do I? As for getting mad at me, as husband and wife, how angry can she get over these matters? After making up his mind, he did not argue with her anymore.
Soon, the dishes were served. As they ate, Han Muzi suddenly thought of something. “How long would it take before your company affairs will slow down?”
Ye Moxuan glanced over at her. “Soon; probably about a week.”
“Alright, I’ll also do my best to finish up my work at my company within a week.”
“Then?”
“Then, we’ll go to the previous manor of the Ye Family.”
