Yu Dong was inside Chen Mi's room because the latter was taking a leisurely bath. She brought a bunch of business records and the monthly expenditure books to check. Actually, she could have just waited for him, but Yu Dong was slightly afraid that she might end up falling asleep before Chen Mi's return if she simply laid down on the bed. However, even after checking three months' expenditure, Chen Mi didn't return to his room, worrying her. Did he fall asleep in the bathtub?
She looked up and was going to go out when her gaze fell on the bottom of the door from where she could see the shadow of someone pacing in front of the door. What was he doing? Yu Dong knew that the person outside should be Chen Mi because Ye Liu was busy with Little bun, and Shen Li went back to his room after washing. So, the only person who could be outside should be Chen Mi, right? However, Yu Dong didn't rush to open the door; instead, she checked it out first.
"Chen Mi?" she softly called.
Chen Mi, pacing outside the door to lose a bit of his flabby belly, jumped. Startled at her sudden call, he knew that what he was doing made no sense, but he really didn't want his wife to see his jiggly belly. Maybe he should have worked out a little. ( little bun: what did I say, huh? What did I say?)
However, that train has already left. And he had no other choice but to bite the bullet; Chen Mi slowly, very carefully pushed open the door and went inside. There was no electricity in their time, and Ye Liu didn't like using oil to light kerosene lamps at night either. His room was plunged into darkness with only the moonlight, lighting up the room with its silvery glow.
Chen Mi blinked his eyes and looked at Yu Dong, sitting on the bed, looking at him with concern. Because Yu Dong usually had headaches, she often wore glasses while working at night to stop her headaches from getting worse. (I got headaches while I was giving board exams, and the doctor gave me glasses saying it would help, so) She obviously wore them because of health concerns but - dressed in a dark blue shirt and pants with her hair falling over her shoulders and that gold-rimmed glasses with a book in her lap... So good!
His wife looks so good! A working woman at her finest glory! So beautiful! So dashing! He was going to burn this image in his mind!
"Are you okay ?" asked Yu Dong. She didn't know why but ever since Chen Mi came inside the room... He seemed to be acting weird. He hadn't moved an inch and looked at her with such a shocked expression - was something wrong with her?
She looked down at her clothes; everything was fine. Then she sniffed herself. She smelled fine too - so what was the matter with him? She looked back at Chen Mi; he was still staring at her like that. She took her glasses off, placed them on the bedside table next to her, and stood up.
Chen Mi saw her take off her glasses and his eyes flashed with apparent regret. Why take them off so soon? You were looking so good!
"Are you alright?" Yu Dong asked as she looked down at Chen Mi. The mers of this world stop growing once they reach a certain height, so he is shorter than her. While women continued to grow until the age of twenty-one, Yu Dong grew while Chen Mi had already stopped growing. She could easily look down at him now that her height had grown a little bit.
"I'm - I'm fine," said Chen Mi shyly. She couldn't know that he was staring at her because he found her too dashing, right? It would be such an embarrassing thing to say! 'hey! I'm sorry, but
my system stopped because it was pre orgasming because of how good you look' - embarrassing! He was dying of embarrassment. He will never say that he got wet just looking at his wife's charm while dressed as a prominent businesswoman!
"Is that so?" Yu Dong continued to look down at Chen Mi, her eyes searching his, while Chen Mi tried to avoid her eyes. He was definitely guilty. The more he acted like that, the more it looked like he was hiding something. Yu Dong frowned and raised her hand to check his temperature. But when her hand touched his forehead, she felt something wet drip down her hand -
Chen Mi "..." uh oh
Yu Dong "..."????
"You didn't dry your hair again?" Yu Dong was so angry that she laughed. She didn't know how often she, Shen Li, and Ye Liu scolded Chen Mi for not drying his hair. But this brat was still the same. He always said he got it, but he would repeat the same thing after three days. In the end, either Shen Li or Ye Liu would dry his hair while admonishing him.
"I - I was in a hurry," said Chen Mi twiddling with his fingers because he spoke without thinking. He didn't know what he had just said.
"Hurry? What were you in a hurry for?" Yu Dong pinched his cheeks as she teased him, "In a hurry to get eaten? Hmm?"
Only then did Chen Mi realize what he had just said, and his entire face bloomed like a red lotus. Even the tips of his ears turned red as he buried his face in his hands. Yu Dong saw this troublemaker act so shy and laughed. Well, it was refreshing to see him act like this.
"Come with me," said Yu Dong as she grasped his wrist and led him to the dressing table.
But because the bed was just next to the dressing table, Chen Mi misunderstood her. He thought she was taking him to bed, but then he was pressed down to sit on the stool in front of the dressing table.
Chen Mi: ???? Where was his promised meat?
Yu Dong looked down and saw his face turning redder by the second because of anger and embarrassment, and her lips couldn't help but curve up. She knew that she shouldn't tease him further but couldn't resist. "Are you upset? Don't worry, once we are done drying your hair," she leaned forward and whispered in his ear as she seductively blew hot breath against Chen Mi's earlobe. "I will satisfy you."
And Chen Mi, who was teased, blushed even harder as he stepped on Yu Dong's feet! Humph! Humph! Teasing him! So bad!
