Chapter 234 - Emperor Chasing After His Wife
"..ngh!"
"Wait! Stop! Stop!"
"...S-slow-ah!"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"...Continue?"
"......Mm."
The sound of splas.h.i.+ng 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 wasn"t 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 didn"t 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? I"ll stay in your room tonight?"
Lu Qiang"s eyes sparkled while nodding his head.
"Is that a promise?" He pulled out his pinky finger.
"Promise."
On the side, Lu Chen"s expression darkened.
She pretended that he didn"t see it but she couldn"t stop her chuckle.
Heh. Did he think that he could get away with what he did this morning?
She"s 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 b.u.mped onto her husband"s 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 didn"t 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 wasn"t 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.
It"s not like he hasn"t experienced getting shot or stabbed before ah. This is no big deal. At least, that"s what he thought while he bit the inside of his mouth when his wife"s stilettos kept her heels on his foot while stepping on him harder.
Of course, Xiu Mei wouldn"t miss this small action of his.
"Hubby, you"re 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 wife"s 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? Aren"t we going yet?" His head appeared behind the door, looking at the two people hugging each other.
Xiu Mei quickly got off Lu Chen"s foot and hastily pushed him away. Lu Chen didn"t 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 Qiang"s 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 wife"s 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, he"s going to be dropped off at school later on. What"s the fuss if he"s 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 wife"s side and held her hand.
"Let go, you rogue." She held grudges from this morning"s exercise.
"Don"t worry, I"m 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 president"s 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.
That"s 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 company"s forum.
