Chapter 120 - Daily Life
Song Ning struggled to open her eyes as she reached for her phone to see what time it was. However, her hand was caught halfway before she was pulled into a warm embrace.
"Baby, let"s sleep for a while more." Mu Chen"s voice that carried a hint of sleepiness and laziness was rather charming.
Song Ning had no choice but to give up. Since the alarm had not rung, it should still be quite early. She knew the consequences of provoking him early in the morning so she obediently let him hug her, not daring to move. However, his body was so warm that it did not take long before she began to feel hot. She struggled to escape from his embrace, but in the end, he only tightened his hold around her.
Mu Chen said in a seductive voice, "Don"t move. Let"s sleep for a while more."
.
Song Ning said helplessly, "Mu Chen, I have to get up. I have to go to the hospital a little earlier today…"
Mu Chen remained unmoved by her words.
"Mu Chen, it"s really hot. Can you let go of me?"
Mu Chen still showed no signs of moving.
Finally, Song Ning inhaled deeply before she asked, "Hubby, can we get up now?"
Mu Chen chuckled and finally released his hold on her.
Song Ning rolled her eyes. "How childis.h.!.+"
However, before Song Ning had time to react, she felt Mu Chen"s hands roaming around her body. Startled, she quickly grabbed his hands and said, "Hubby, it"s time to get up. Can you send me to work?"
"Okay, but I want a morning kiss," Mu Chen said as he lowered his head to look at her.
Song Ning sighed inwardly. What would she do if her child was as clingy as Mu Chen in the future? She decided she would have to spank her child"s bottom if he or she were like Mu Chen. All of a sudden, her face heated up. Why did she suddenly think of a child? She was frightened by her line of thoughts.
At this moment, Mu Chen pressed his lips against Song Ning"s lips. The lingering kiss lit a fire in Mu Chen"s body that he was almost unable to restrain himself.
Song Ning begged and threatened him to stop. In the end, she resorted to making all sorts of promises and allowed him to leave two hickeys near her collarbone before he finally relented and went to take a cold shower.
For the umpteenth time, she swore to sleep in a separate bed! However, she knew it was impossible. Mu Chen looked like an aloof gentleman outwardly, but he was a different person in bed. In order to get what he wanted, he had no qualms about acting shamelessly like a child. She had a headache when she thought about this.
When the sound of running water from the bathroom stopped, Song Ning hurriedly got off the bed. She covered herself with the quilt before she grabbed her clothes. If Mu Chen saw her lying in her bed, his cold shower would have been in vain.
When Mu Chen came out from the bathroom and saw Song Ning"s fl.u.s.tered actions, he could not help but smile. No one but him would be able to see this adorable side of her. Despite her usually calm and indifferent appearance, in private, she was conservative, shy, innocent, and cute.
Mu Chen sighed in contentment. He truly believed G.o.d had sent Song Ning to him. His love and desire seemed endless when it came to her. Sometimes, he thought it was worth it waiting all these years for her.
…
Jiang Jin, who was already sitting at the dining table, looked at her grandson and her granddaughter-in-law. She could not conceal the happiness on her face at all.
After Song Ning took a seat, she asked, "Grandma, did you sleep well last night?"
Jiang Jin smiled. "I did."
Before they ate, Song Ning checked Jiang Jin"s pulse and the coating of her tongue.
After that, Jiang Jin said to Mu Chen, "I feel like it"s not going to be a problem for me to live to 100 years old."
Mu Chen looked at his happy and healthy grandmother and thought about the last few months. It was all thanks to Song Ning"s care that his grandmother"s condition, both physically and mentally, improved so much. After a beat, he said, "Grandma, you better keep your promise. I still need you to help me to take care of my child."
Jiang Jin laughed happily. "Of course! When the time comes, you better don"t forget these words. Otherwise, should we draw up an agreement?"
"Alright, I"m also afraid you"ll regret your words! If you don"t help me take care of the child, what would I do? Ningning will definitely focus all her attention on the child at that time and neglect me. This thought is too scary. Grandma, you better help me. Otherwise, you"ll see my face every day!"
"Brat, are you threatening me?!" Jiang Jin laughed and hit Mu Chen playfully on his arm.
Yu could not help but laugh when she watched the interaction between the pair of grandmother and grandson.
Meanwhile, Song Ning handed a bowl of porridge to Jiang Jin with a blush on her face. "Grandma…"
Jiang Jin smiled and said, "Since I have Ningning taking care of me, it definitely won"t be a problem for me to live to 100!"
Mu Chen picked up a small steamed bun and placed it on Song Ning"s plate. Following that, he pushed a gla.s.s of milk to her. "You"ve been exhausted lately. You have to eat more to gain strength…"
Song Ning"s face flushed red immediately. "How annoying! Why do you think I"m so tired? Isn"t it because of you?"
Jiang Jin and Yu exchanged a look. Both of them were filled with delight when they looked at the couple.
