"When will we be able to get our results?" Lu Mello asked the phlebotomist who extracted his blood.
"If it"s not STAT, then you will be able to have your results within 2-4 hours, sir." The phlebotomist said a polite smile.
"And if it"s STAT?" s.h.i.+ Enxi was standing beside Lu Mello.
"It will be within an hour. There will be an additional payment if you want it to be STAT."
s.h.i.+ Enxi turned to Lu Mello with a small smile, "Darling, I think it won"t hurt if we"ll pay for STAT, right?"
"It"s alright, we can wait for two hours instead." He stood up from his seat and held her hand. "I want to pa.s.s by somewhere first."
s.h.i.+ Enxi sighed. She really wanted to go home and get some rest as soon as possible. So many things happened that day and she still had to unpack her things once getting to Lu Mello"s place.
Lu Mello saw the disapproving look on s.h.i.+ Enxi"s face that"s why he decided to give her a little tease to lighten up her mood. He leaned and whispered in her ear, "Are you that excited to have me on the bed?"
Just like what he expected, s.h.i.+ Enxi"s face went red when she was reminded of their wedding night. He was still into it? Was he not listening to her earlier? Did he really not care?
Lu Mello placed his hand on her waist and gently led her out of the extraction room. "There"s a nearby mall here. I can accompany you to buy some s.e.xy underwear for tonight"s event. My favorite color is blue. I think blue undies will look good on you."
"..." Yup, he really was into it. He even looked excited while talking about it.
Fine! If he wanted to be shameless, then two can play the game!
"Do you have condoms prepared in your place?" She asked, her eyes were curled into a crescent moon as she smiled cheerfully at him.
"Eh? Why do we need condoms?" He faced her after stopping in front of his car.
"Aren"t you going to practice your baby-making skills with me? That means we can"t have a baby yet until you have gained enough experience."
He pouted, "Why not? It"s not like you"re going to get pregnant with our first try."
She shrugged her shoulders, "We can"t really say." Before Lu Mello could retort, she quickly added, "Besides, I"m not ready to have a child of my own yet, Mello. I just started working as a manager and there are still so many things that I want to do and taking care of a child is not one of them."
He looked at her for a while. Even if he wanted to start a family with her, he didn"t want to force s.h.i.+ Enxi into it. It was already enough that she agreed to marry her and to have deeper connections with him in bed.
In the past, she never carried his child. She deceived him and said that is was his when in truth, it was actually Huang Li"s child. He could feel his chest tighten in pain when he thought about it. He was not going to allow that to happen this time. He has changed so many things in this lifetime and he was pretty confident that something like that will not happen as long as he made s.h.i.+ Enxi fall for him.
"Alright. I guess having children can wait." He opened the car"s door for her.
"Thank you, Mello." s.h.i.+ Enxi was grateful that Lu Mello was being so understanding to her.
When she sat on the shotgun seat, Lu Mello leaned to put on her seatbelt before he faced her.
s.h.i.+ Enxi was a bit surprised by the closeness of their faces and once again, she could feel her heart pounding loudly. She couldn"t help but get worried since it might be pounding so loud that Lu Mello might hear it!
She clenched her fist and tried to remain calm, "What?"
Lu Mello didn"t say a thing, he just leaned and placed a soft kiss on her lips.
s.h.i.+ Enxi wasn"t expecting for a kiss so when he did it, her eyes bulge out as if they were going to fall out of her sockets.
He leaned back and looked seriously at her, "Since you are my wife now, you are not allowed to have any other men in your heart, okay?"
She snapped out from her trance upon hearing his words. For some reason, she felt something warm growing in her chest. It was something that she never felt but she didn"t hate the feeling, in fact, she loved the warmth that was growing. "Don"t worry, if it"s loyalty as a wife that you want, then I will give it to you but you have to do the same. I won"t sit still if I found out that you have another woman. Fan Xiao Yao, or whoever she is, I"m going to burn her alive in front of your eyes."
He chuckled lightly. "Ah, my cruel little wife." He leaned and kissed her forehead. "Be rest a.s.sured, you are the only one."
"Good." She held his collar and gave him a kiss on his lips.
Lu Mello placed his hand on the headrest for support, his other hand on her waist as he kissed her back.
s.h.i.+ Enxi was an amateur in it and she knew that herself that"s why she allowed Lu Mello to take over the kiss. She allowed him to deepen the kiss. She wrapped her arms around his neck as the kiss they shared became so pa.s.sionate.
He was taking in so much in the kiss. With her permission, he slipped his tongue in her mouth and caught her soft tongue.
Seconds turned to minutes and Lu Mello finally pulled away from it. He panted, "Breathe, little wife."
Hearing his words, she exhaled hard. She was out of breath, her cheeks were pink and she looked at Lu Mello with glistening eyes. It was Lu Mello"s first time in seeing her so bashful.
She leaned and buried her blus.h.i.+ng face on the crook of his neck.
She stuttered, "H-How..." She paused and inhaled deeply to calm her shaking self. "How many girls have you kissed to be able to be this good?"
He chuckled lightly, "Do you want me to be honest?"
She pursed her lips at his words. Why was it that she was feeling a sting in her chest?
He must have kissed so many girls, right? When she thought that he has kissed Fan Xiao Yao this way, she ended up clenching her fists tight until her knuckles went white.
"You are the only one I have ever kissed."
She pulled back and looked at him in disbelief. "No way!"
He smiled at her, "It"s true. I have never kissed another girl. Although I have received kisses from my mother during my childhood days, is that included?"
"How about Fan Xiao Yao?"
He blinked a few times, "No. I have never kissed her. I am a gentleman you know. I will never force a kiss on someone if I know that they won"t like it!"
She raised a brow at him in disbelief, crossing her arms. "A gentleman?"
He cleared his throat before he reasoned out, "It"s only normal for a husband to kiss his wife, right?"
How dare he use that card on her!
"And you were the one who kissed me first, remember?"
"I didn"t kiss you first!"
"Yes, you did! I just kissed back!"
"..." Well... That may be true.
s.h.i.+ Enxi sighed in defeat, "Just get in the car already. Aren"t we still going to buy my s.e.xy undies for tonight?"
"Oh right! Let"s continue this later~"
