In the afternoon,
Xu Musen and Yao Mingyue arrived at the familiar stopping point,
right next to the scenic area where they had fallen into icy water.
Now, in the midst of sumr, the vast inland lake sparkled, and although it was not as magnificent as the sea, the surrounding mountains and the widespread greenery lent it a unique charm.
At the sa ti, this was where their relationship had quietly begun to change.
"Let's rest here,"
Xu Musen drove into the hotel's parking lot.
"My back is so sore from sitting..."
Yao Mingyue shifted slightly in her seat. After sitting for most of the day, she felt as though she had fused with the chair.
She gently lifted her thigh and could feel the mark left by her skirt on the root of her thigh.
"I told you to lie in the back and you wouldn't, so you deserve it."
"Heh, you're talking like a hypocrite!"
Xu Musen ignored her.
It was just a leg anyway.
And to think he was the type who secretly relished playing matchmaker for others, but in reality, would get nervous and stutter around girls, fantasize wildly late at night, yet in person, couldn't even muster the courage to make eye contact. At eighteen or nineteen, he hadn't even touched a girl's hand but proclaid himself a champion of pure love?
Xu Musen took the wheelchair out of the trunk, opened the front passenger door, and reached out to Yao Mingyue.
"I'll lift you out."
"Wait a minute..."
Yao Mingyue first gingerly shifted her pert buttocks left and right.
"Are you emitting exhaust fus over there?"
Xu Musen couldn't help but laugh.
"I'm not releasing anything! Ugh, I can't even with you."
Yao Mingyue, cheeks flushed, knew all too well. Any girl who often wears short skirts knows that in sumr, especially on leather seats, even with the air conditioning on, if you don't move for a while, your skin sticks to the seat, giving a slightly embarrassing feeling.
"Can we go now?"
Xu Musen asked as she finally stopped squirming in her seat.
Yao Mingyue lifted her slender neck with a touch of arrogance, "Say 'wife, please get out of the car.'"
"People who usually need help getting out are old grandmas."
"Xu Musen, would it kill you to say sothing nice?"
"Alright, Queen Yao, please get out of the car."
"Queen? I'm the Empress!"
"The Qing Dynasty is long gone and I, the emperor, have already welcod a new queen. You're still on probation; watch out, or I'll exile you to the Cold Palace."
Xu Musen sternly issued his decree.
But Yao Mingyue was clearly not resigned to her fate; she ground her little teeth: "Die, scum! Once I seize power and rule behind the curtain, I'll grind you to death!"
That would really be terrifying.
Xu Musen smiled fearfully, reached out, and gently lifted her. His hands slipped under her legs and he could still feel the residual warmth from prolonged contact with the seat.
The underside of the girl's thighs felt as if they had just co from a steam room—warm and soft.
Xu Musen's hands also felt the lines pressed into her thighs by the hem of her skirt.
He rembered how An Nuannuan used to have similar marks when sitting in a wheelchair every day. It was at tis like these that Xu Musen would step in.
"Your hands…"
Yao Mingyue felt her face heating up; this man was still making advances while holding her.
"I'll massage them to stimulate circulation."
"You're just taking advantage of !"
"I'm not saying I'm not."
Yao Mingyue, mouth agape, was at a loss for words, looking at Xu Musen who now seed mischievously pleased.
Away from An Nuannuan's watchful eyes, he seed to have broken free, transforming from a warm and fuzzy golden retriever into a deranged, maturing teddy bear!
But honestly, Yao Mingyue didn't dislike it; she even found it… exhilarating.
In her previous life, Xu Musen had always been very accommodating, which was comforting and warm.
But sotis, people long for a bit of excitent.
This version of Xu Musen, both caring and aggravating, made her feel both love and hate—a feeling like throwing logs onto a tepid fire of life.
For Yao Mingyue, it was like discovering hidden features in a husband she thought she had known for half her life—how could she not be thrilled?
But there was one thing that irked her: the change in Xu Musen's personality might have been influenced by An Nuannuan.
It felt as if... like a car she couldn't bear to drive herself, soone else had stepped in and floored the gas pedal.
Ah!
The more Yao Mingyue thought about it, the angrier she got. She lifted her head and bit directly into Xu Musen's neck.
Xu Musen touched his neck, unhard, but the girl's little canines still hurt.
"What are you freaking out about now?"
Yao Mingyue turned her head away, "Using the saliva of this beautiful girl to purify the filth!"
He just shook his head with a laugh, as Yao Mingyue's outbursts were nothing new.
They entered the hotel.
The receptionist recognized Xu Musen and greeted him warmly.
"Do you need a double room again?"
"That would be great."
Xu Musen nodded, deciding not to opt for separate rooms from Yao Mingyue this ti.
Turning back to Yao Mingyue, who was sneakily peeking, Xu Musen added, "It's to take care of you, the patient."
"Tsk."
Yao Mingyue pouted.
n's words are the least trustworthy; how many girls have been sweet-talked from "just holding hands" to "I will take responsibility" in the end?
But Yao Mingyue was not the type to play hard to get. In their past life, they had been an old married couple for years. While other girls were still figuring out how to maintain their dignity,
she was thinking about what position to put him in…
