Perfect Pampered Marriage: Good Morning, Hubby

Why Won’t She Ask Him For Favors?

This answer made Li Shengxia anxious.

She used to believe this secret would be kept deep within the bottom of her heart.

Mo Nianchen did not need an impressive secret admirer or reckless love; all he was looking for was a toy to pass time.

However, right this second, she was finally aware of her true feelings… contemporary romance

Surprisingly, she found it difficult to suppress it…

‘Mo Nianchen, you annoying devil, why choose me out of the billions of people in the world? Why am I falling for you despite knowing full well that you’re just messing around?’

She must have lost her mind!

To even entertain the thought of falling in love with him again!

The woman, lost in her own thoughts, did not realize she had accidentally left behind the red ring on her left hand in Yin Tangyi’s car.

On the other side.

Mo Nianchen was pacing around the room impatiently with his phone in hand.

How did the discussion go with Gina?

Why was she not home yet?

However, he promised to wait for her at home today. D*mn it, since when had he become so obedient?

“Crown Prince, time for dinner.”

“I’ll wait for the crown princess!”

“Yes, Crown Prince…”

…

“Li Shengxia, what the hell are you doing behind my back? You’ll be a dead woman if I find out!”

He hung up the call about several seconds in. No, he could not do that, because that would break the promise. She might dislike him more for that.

One hour went by.

“Is she back?”

“Probably soon…”

Soon…

Being bored down to the marrow, the man was on the phone call with Ouyang for almost one hour.

The latter felt reluctant. “I’ll end the call if you don’t have anything else to say.”

Mo Nianchen replied coldly, “Find new conversation topics to talk with me.”

The other person felt a shudder pass through him upon remembering his birth date being used as the man’s phone password. Was that definitely because of Li Shengxia and had nothing to do with him?

He questioned tentatively, “Chen, do you know when my birthday is?”

“Why the f*ck would know when your birthday is?”

Ouyang felt a burden being lifted off his chest as he heaved a sigh of relief.

“There are so many days in a year but why must you choose to be born on 30th May!”

“So you do know?” He trembled. “You never want to celebrate with me. I thought that you wouldn’t remember?”

Mo Nianchen really hoped to gouge out his friend’s eyes. He was annoyed that the latter was born on the same day as Li Shengxia and that frustrated him terribly! Why should his friend be blessed with that luck?!

“Speaking of that, your birthday is coming soon. Have you thought of how you want to celebrate?”

“Seriously? Why keep talking about this stupid thing!”

“You’re the one that wants me to keep the conversation going.”

“Do you chat with women like this too?”

“Are you a woman though?” Ouyang was frustrated.

“Chat with me like I’m one!!”

“Chen… Can you not force me? I’m straight.” He was flustered.

Mo Nianchen ended the call abruptly.

Ouyang was terrified. Had he said something wrong that provoked the man? This was nerve-wracking! He was aware of his dashing good looks but he preferred women at the end of the day…

How frustrating!

In the meantime, Mo Nianchen noticed Li Shengxia walking into the courtyard thus he hung up the phone immediately.

He blurted upon the woman’s arrival, “Why are you so late?”

“It took me some time to get a taxi,” she replied.

In actuality, he had no idea that she had been pondering over several matters on the way home. She contemplated the best way to face him in the future if it was possible to try creating more good memories.

However, she did not want to express her concerns, certain that she would be ridiculed.

“Why didn’t you tell me that you had trouble getting a taxi?” He frowned.

“I didn’t want to trouble you, so…”

So?

What was it that she did not understand?

Why would she not ask him for favors?!

“Dinner time!” he uttered coldly.

“Okay.” She quickly trailed behind the man.

She kept throwing glances at the man subconsciously from her seat at the dining table.

After the conversation with Yin Tangyi tonight, she finally found out her own desires. She wished to learn more about this man in front of her.

This was because learning more about him made her happy.

Perhaps that was not a bad thing at all.

The man’s voice rang in the air coldly when he noticed her mind wandering. “You’ve been staring at my face since just now. Is there something dirty on my face? Or are you feeling guilty for doing something wrong behind my back?”

She picked up a piece of braised pork belly absent-mindedly.

“Gotcha!” He twitched his brows into a frown. “You hate braised pork belly.”

“…” It was until then that she realized what she had done. “I was going to give it to you,” she replied immediately.

Without thinking, he pushed his bowl aside thus the meat dropped onto the table. The woman’s face froze out of embarrassment.

She was acting really strange tonight! However, he thought it was a shame to waste that piece of meat she gave him. Why did he have such quick reflexes?

The man sized her up and down carefully. “What is it that you’re hiding from me?” he inquired indifferently.

“Nothing!” She lowered her head as she spoke. She was just trying to understand him better. He was definitely too sensitive…

His gaze followed her eyes to her hands.

Her fair and slender fingers appeared barren. “Where’s your ring?”

“My ring?” Panic-stricken, she glanced at her ring finger instinctively.

Shit! When did she lose it?

In the coffee shop? Or in Yin Tangyi’s car?

How could she not have any recollection at all?

There was no doubt Mo Nianchen would not let her off the hook if he learned about her meeting with the other man, despite the content of their conversation.

At the thought of this, she replied nonchalantly, “Oh, I left it in the office for fear of scratching it. Don’t worry, I’ve put it somewhere safe with a lock.”

“It’s a gift from me. Make sure you have it on you at all times!”

“Sure, I’ll put it back on at work first thing tomorrow.”

He did not know what to reply to her obedience. Suddenly, he pushed his bowl toward her…

“What? I can’t eat that much! You’re responsible for what’s in your own bowl!” She looked at him strangely as she argued.

“…” It was really difficult to speak with this woman. “Braised pork belly!” he said coldly.
