95 Ch. 95 Call Richie
Richard sighed with satisfaction after finishing his delicious al. It was the most well-seasoned al he had ever eaten, and he didn’t hide his delighted face.
Richard realized a bright hue filled Anxia’s face with satisfaction when she saw Richard finish his food. Since his wife had pleased his heart by cooking, even though the woman had never cooked before... wasn’t it about ti he gave her so good news?
“Xia Xia, I have good news for you.” his remark earned a confused blink from his wife.
It seed Anxia was too focused on how to cook a lunch al these days to the point that she had forgotten her purpose of doing sothing that could please Richard.
Richard was over the moon thinking Anxia genuinely wanted to cook for him, and he couldn’t help but grin from ear to ear.
“What good news?” Anxia’s mind was overwheld with satisfaction to see Richard gobble up everything she had made, and her eyes couldn’t take off from Richard’s endless contented smile as if today’s al was the most delicious in the world.
At that ti, Anxia realized she felt complete, only to see his charming smile and the delighted glint in his eyes. Would he still smile at her if she cooked for him again?
“I got news from Cerberus. Your friend, Ling ng, has woken up.”
As if soone pulled her back from the dreamland to reality, Anxia stood up suddenly, causing her chair to be forced backward.
.....
Shouldn’t this be great news? Why did his wife look shocked as if she had seen a ghost?
Richard rose to his feet only to approach his wife.
“Xia Xia, are you okay?”
“What... what did you say earlier?” it seed Anxia couldn’t believe what she had heard.
Knowing Master Yu and the severe damage he had done to Ling ng, staying alive was a miracle.
“Ling ng woke up a few hours ago.”
“Seriously? You’re not lying?”
“Why would I lie? You can talk to her via vid-call today if you’d like. How about...”
“Kyaaaaa!!!”
Richard was startled by Anxia’s ear-splitting scream, wrapped her hands around his neck, and bounced like an excited child. It was the first ti Anxia initiated hugging him first.
“I’d love to! When? Now? Can we do it now?”
Richard chuckled at his wife’s adorable attitude. “Of course. When have I ever lied to you?”
Anxia’s smile widened even further, then bent her index finger towards Richard as if asking Richard to lower his head slightly. Richard complied, and as if soone lightened up a firework in his heart, it exploded when Anxia placed a light peck on his cheek.
“Thank you,” cheered Anxia, still with a big smile and eyes sparkling like beautiful gems.
Good grief! Who would have thought that his wife would open up to him so easily just because Richard allowed her to talk to Ling ng?
He couldn’t gauge how lucky he was for deciding to save Ling ng.
When he read Master Yu’s threatening ssage, Richard thought about letting it go because he didn’t want Anxia to get back in touch with soone like Ling ng.
Moreover, hearing Lori’s description that Ling ng was a bad influence on Anxia made him determined to let Master Yu kill Ling ng.
But when he heard Anxia’s confession that Ling ng was one of the reasons Anxia kept the fetus, Richard changed his mind at the last minute and decided to save Ling ng right then and there.
Fortunately, he saved her. Luckily he dispatched his team mbers in ti before Ling ng died from blood loss.
If Richard hardened his heart and didn’t help Ling ng, he wouldn’t enjoy this sweet precious mont. He was sure Anxia would never want to cook his favorite al, and he was confident that Anxia would not hesitate to kill him when she had the golden opportunity.
Richard felt proud of himself for following his instincts and listening to his inner voice.
However, how could a peck on the cheek satisfy him after spending a lonely ti every night?
Richard snaked his arms behind Anxia’s waist and pulled her body closer to him.
“You know, a kiss like that isn’t enough to please ,” smirked Richard, causing Anxia to purse her lips.
“You know, you’re really good at ruining the mood,” complained Anxia, and cursed her husband in her heart, but she still let Richard embrace her.
Richard chuckled at his wife’s complaint and shifted his head lower to kiss a pair of pursed lips briefly.
Anxia didn’t evade or rebel, either. She let him do what he wanted as long as he didn’t go all out. Only when she rembered the burnt kitchen was her heart assailed by guilt.
She should have quickly confessed what had happened to the palace kitchen than for the man to find out from soone else and change his mind about the video call with Ling ng.
“Richard,”
“Richie.” Richard corrected how she should call him, “I like it better when you call Richie.”
Anxia felt her blood rush to her face, and a hot steam raised from her head.
“Richie,” Anxia changed her way of addressing, but because she was too shy (which was ridiculous. When did she ever be a shy girl?), her voice beca very low, barely even audible.
“Hmm? I didn’t hear it. Call one more ti.”
Anxia was even more nervous when Richard whispered right in front of her earlobe while biting the area of ??her earlobe. Her hands gripped Richard’s shirt cloth shyly as she tried to calm the uncontrollable pounding heart.
“Ri... Richie,” Anxia’s voice was only a little bit louder than before, but she was sure her husband could hear her.
“Once again. I couldn’t hear it.”
Under normal circumstances, Anxia would already be irritated and hit this shaless, absurd husband. But strangely, she wasn’t. Instead, she complied with the man’s request obediently.
“Richie... aaahh...” a sensual moan escape from Anxia’s lips when she felt Richard suck the tip of her ear.
What happened to her!? Since when did her ear beco this sensitive?
