Ning Xiaofei blinked at his profile, looked him in the eye and smiled in flattery.

“Husband…”

The man’s face sank.

Knowing that she’s doomed, Ning Xiaofei held the bowl with both hands and sent it to her mouth, then took a little sip.

The strong gingery flavor of the soup and its spicy taste runs straight into her nose. When it went down, Ning Xiaofei’s tears were almost squeezed out.

“Hu…husband.” She raised her pitiful face from the big bowl, “Can you let me add some sugar?”

She was just looking for an excuse. When she returns after finding the sugar, the soup would be cold so what would be the point of drinking it?

Mu Tianye’s forehead creased.

“No!”

Grudgingly, Ning Xiaofei shut her eyes, held the bowl and sent it to her mouth again.

Gulu gulu gulu (noisy drinking sound) ….

In one breath, she poured the soup in the bowl into her stomach.

At first, her throat burned awfully hot. When it reached her chest then abdomen, she actually felt herself heating up. The warmth spread over her whole body instantaneously, her back, followed by her limbs, the feeling was similar to a hot spring. It gave her an indescribable comfortable feeling.

Ning Xiaofei opened her eyes and goggled at the empty bowl in her hands. Tears welled up in her eyes but they were also full of surprises.

She has always hated ginger soup. When she was sick, her mother would always boil a bowl for her. She always acted like a spoiled brat  and made a fuss, refusing to drink. Later, when her mother died, no one has ever prepared soup for her. For so long, this was the first time she truly drank ginger soup again, and a large bowl at that.

She has always believed that people who said drinking ginger tea could fend off a cold, was a exaggeration. This time however, she found it believable.

Raising her hand and wiping a slightly sweaty forehead, she put out her tongue and licked her slightly hot lips, then the woman could not help but beat a burp.

Noticing Mu Tianye who was still staring at her, her pinkish cheeks glowed red even more. She hurriedly hid behind her bowl and got up.

“I…I’ll go do the dishes!”

With the bowl, she marched into the kitchen and scooped the remaining noodles and soup in the pot into her bowl. She thought that there was a little more of it and not wanting to waste it, it was also good, just enough for her to eat.

Leaning on the middle of the kitchen counter, she irritably wrinkled her nose.

It’s a pity she got robbed off her egg!

Quickly solving her noodles, she jumped off the counter and placed her bowl into the sink. She also collected the used pots, put on the gloves and grabbed the sponge and began washing them.

Dead Mu Tianye, forcing me to drink ginger soup, stealing my eggs, I say, I’ll twist you, scrub you, I’ll kill you.……

Since she can’t stand up for herself directly, she could only vent her anger on the bowl while imagining flattening Mu Tianye’s face.

Behind, light footsteps squeaked. Knowing that he came in without seeing him, Ning Xiaofei continued washing her bowl.

Putting the empty bowl in his hand on the counter beside her, Mu Tianye stepped behind and one hand reached over and supported her waist.

He…What is he up to again?

Ning Xiaofei’s movements froze as the fingers of the man went through the hem of her dress, rose and slid on her back.

She felt his fingers graze her skin, and her hair fell upright in an instant.

Full and warm. **** He’s not gonna want to come again, is he?!

Under his fingers, her smooth and creamy skin were slim, but has the unique elasticity of a girl….

On her back, there was a thin layer of sweat.

She was perspiring, she shouldn’t catch a cold. Mu Tianye retracted her fingers, turned around and walked out of the kitchen.

Listening to the sound of his footsteps drifting away, Ning Xiaofei slowly turned her head just in time to see the man’s figure disappearing from the doorway, she exhaled….

What was his problem, did he still have to “touch” before bedtime?
