Huo Jinyao stopped the car in front of the restaurant and turned to face Su Qingsang. “Dear, we have arrived.”
Su Qingsang glared at him and did not have the slightest intention to get out of the car.
Her waist was still aching and her thighs were weak. It’s all this guy’s fault.
“I said we should eat at home, but you insisted on dining out. I don’t even have the energy to walk now.”
Su Qingsang was suffering from a hoarse throat. She was really going through extreme discomfort, not just willfully complaining. She truly felt horrible.
“I’ll carry you.” Huo Jinyao reached out to her as he spoke. But why on earth would Su Qingsang allow him to carry her?
Was it not enough that he had done as he pleased with her at home? Was he now trying to embarrass her in public?
“Huo Jinyao, that’s quite enough.”
“Dear…” Huo Jinyao’s voice was filled with grievance. “Please don’t be angry anymore.”
Seeing Su Qingsang’s hostile disposition, he could not help but lean in close to her. “Think about this – I’ve been a bachelor for thirty years. Now that I’m married, don’t you think I’ve got to make up for a long, lonely life as a single man?”
Su Qingsang was almost at a loss in the face of his shamelessness. “Huo Jinyao, are you still going on about that?”
“It’s the truth.” Huo Jinyao nonchalantly kissed Su Qingsang on her cheek. “Moreover, look how beautiful my wife is. She’s so gentle, gracious, has a good figure and nice skin, and she’s so passionate and…”
“Huo Jinyao, shut your mouth.” Su Qingsang’s neck was red. She could no longer bear to listen to this. “Stop talking about it.”
“Why wouldn’t you allow me to talk about it?” Huo Jinyao blinked innocently, his eyes shining like two stars in the sky. “My wife is very passionate, and she’s also very…”
He leaned in close to Su Qingsang’s ear to whisper the rest of his sentence. Su Qingsang was overwhelmed with embarrassment. “That’s enough!”
“So you see, dear, you really can’t blame me. You have to blame yourself for being too perfect. How can I resist you?”
Looking at that ruffian-like face of his and listening to the load of sweet-talk that constantly streamed from his lips, Su Qingsang could not outwardly vent her anger no matter how furious she was.
However, she still had to teach him a lesson. “It can’t happen again.”
“I’ll try my best.” It is impossible to prevent it from happening again, but…”Dear, I can promise you I’ll do my best to restrain myself in the future.”
“In the future, the limit is once per day.” It was still best to set the record straight. Su Qingsang finally realized that she had been indulging Huo Jinyao too much.
“What? It can’t be.” There was an immediate shift in Huo Jinyao’s demeanor. “Dear, you can’t be so cruel to me, can you?”
“Then should it be reduced to once a week?”
Huo Jinyao looked crestfallen and incredulous. “Dear, I do acknowledge my mistake, so should we just skip this punishment?”
“If you keep harping on it, then the limit will be further reduced to once a month.”
Su Qingsang kept her poker face on and adopted an uncompromising stance.
Huo Jinyao’s face reflected his hopelessness. “Dear, I’m sorry for the past two days. I guarantee that I will be mindful next time, but this punishment is too severe. You can’t insist on it, or it’ll be the end of me.”
“Is that so? It doesn’t look that way.”
Su Qingsang opened the car door and stepped out as she spoke. Even though she was experiencing physical discomfort, her mood had lightened up tremendously.
“Dear…”
Huo Jinyao followed behind Su Qingsang, trying his best to appease her.
Su Qingsang continued to be oblivious to his pleas. Hearing Huo Jinyao’s continual sweet-talk on top of his gibberish, a smile started to tug at her lips and it gradually grew wider.
Some distance away, Qiu Yanbo just finished parking his car before getting out of it. He instantly spotted Su Qingsang from afar.
It was a juxtaposition to the sharpness and detachment in her disposition when she faced him.
The Su Qingsang he was observing now was obviously very much doted on. She exuded the aura of a woman who was substantially cherished and loved.
Qiu Yanbo narrowed his eyes and they reflected an inscrutable subtlety.
