"Well? Won"t you let me see how hard you became for me?" She continued to tease him.
Lu Mello"s eyes darkened, "Do you think that you will get away with this?"
"Oh my, I"m scared." She smirked playfully. "How will you punish me when you"re a thousand miles away, darling?"
"I"ll show you how I"m going to punish you for being a naughty wife once I come back."
She giggled, "My, oh, my, it looks like I have to hide from my husband."
Lu Mello sighed. She has become brave just because he was not there with her on the bed. Although it was not like he didn"t like this part of her. He was quite amused by how she was being "sweet" to him.
"Mrs. Lu, please behave yourself."
"I am always behaved, Mr. Lu." She grinned at him.
"Yes, yes, please continue to do so."
s.h.i.+ Enxi was happy to see him through the call. Whenever she spoke with him, her mood would automatically lighten up.
"Don"t you dare meet any women behind my back, Mello, or else I"m really going to divorce you!"
"Don"t you trust me?" He was kind of hurt that she was still doubting him until now.
"I trust you but I don"t trust the women around you, so be careful, okay?"
These words... He heard them before. Where did he hear them?
Ah! These were the same words that his mother told his father back then when he was away.
His gaze became soft and his heart warmed up. He never expected that he would hear the same words, especially this time, from his beloved wife. "Don"t worry, as soon as I finish my work here, I"ll fly back to you."
"Be sure to take care of yourself."
"I will. Anyway, you should get some rest now."
"Don"t you want to talk to me anymore?" She pouted a bit. Even if she was sleepy earlier, she wasn"t feeling the same since she was talking with him.
"I"m almost at my destination."
"Oh, do you need time to jerk off?"
Even if Lu Mello didn"t want to admit it, he really wanted to have a cold shower for his awakened beast.
s.h.i.+ Enxi"s lips curled up into a playful smirk, "Go on, I want to watch you do it."
Lu Mello sighed heavily, "Xi"er, I really am going to end the call now."
s.h.i.+ Enxi pouted, even if she wanted to tease him more, she decided to stop. "Fine, end it then."
"Are you angry?"
"Why should I be? You are so handsome, I can"t get angry at you." She huffed.
He chuckled lightly, "I am so grateful to have been born with this face."
She touched her screen as if to touch his cheek. "Let"s go for another date once you come back."
"Where do you want to go?"
"I"ll think about it. There are a lot of places to choose from, I can"t decide where to go yet."
"Then just let me know once you do."
She stared at his face for a while. Oh, how she wished that he was beside her. "You should end the call, if you won"t, I"m going to speak nonstop with you."
"Fine, fine. I"ll call you back tomorrow."
"See you later, darling." She smiled sweetly at him as she added, "I love you..."
Lu Mello could never get used to her telling those words and at the same time, he couldn"t help but think if she really meant them.
s.h.i.+ Enxi pouted when she didn"t hear a reply from her. Pink blush was evident on her cheeks and it was clearly seen since the room"s light was still on. "Hey, I said, I love you."
The gentleness in Lu Mello"s eyes was seen as he smiled lovingly at her. Her words were really for him... "I love you too, Xi"er."
After their call ended, s.h.i.+ Enxi lied down on her bed and hugged a pillow. As she closed her eyes to sleep, she remembered Lu Mello"s gentle gaze. A faint smile grew on her lips. She really has fallen in love with him.
She never thought that it was possible to love him. Back then, she didn"t like him one bit. She even found his advances annoying.
How nice it was if such peaceful days could continue. She was once full of hate but with Lu Mello around, she finally found happiness, she finally felt how it was to be loved.
Just by thinking of him leaving her frightened her deeply. If her current happiness was just a dream, she would do anything to keep on dreaming.
