54 Chapter 54 : Starting An Ambiguous Affair With The Husband 1

The Xing couple finished their scuba diving entertainment after an hour. They are now basking in the lounge area of the yacht so they could rest and move to their next activity which is island hopping. Different kinds of tropical fruits and desserts were on the long table, ready to be eaten by the couple.

The servants and the instructor were on the other side of the yacht to give some privacy to the couple. Also, it was ordered by Hongqi since he didn't like other people seeing Xiulan in her swimsuit.

Xiulan is busy munching a slice of watermelon while she lays on the bamboo straw lounge chair while Hongqi's busy on his phone again.

"Didn't we agreed to their terms already that he will appear in the said variety show for an hour? He has other schedules after that show. Why are they pushing it to two hours? I'm on a vacation so refrain from calling me every now and then. Do you want me to fire you?" Hongqi angrily said the person in the other line. His handsome face was frowning and it seems like he's really pissed.

Xiulan only stares at the fuming Hongqi while she heartily eats the different fruits. They are both the CEO of their respective companies but there's really a huge difference in their workloads.

It must because their companies are in a different environment. IT companies are usually chill. Add that her company doesn't need any marketing noise since she pretty much prefers getting clients that have stumbled to her company website or word of mouth.

Marketing noise from expensive ads were really not her style. This has been an long issue of her marketing team with her.

While on Hongqi's side, their company must always makes a noise by following the latest trends, expensive ads in different forms, and both good and bad publicity.

For Xiulan, it was very tiring. Good thing she graduated to an introverted work environment.

"Can't they just leave me alone for a week." Hongqi irritably mumbled while he place his phone on top of the small table between their chairs.

"You should turn off your phone." Xiulan innocently suggested. She was now munching the mango graham dessert. Actually her phone is currently turned-off too since her sister Qiaohui has been calling and sending her weird messages. In case Secretary Dandan has inquiries, she told her to send it through email instead.

Hongqi coldy gaze at Xiulan like he heard the most atrocious suggestion in his whole life. "You do know I can't leave my phone dead. As a CEO you should know that." He spicily said and get up to get some fruits on the long table. His tone was rather sarcastic.

Xiulan's mouth remains open when she heard his sarcasm. It didn't offend her but it made her disconcerted. "Split personality?" She silently questions while she stares at his muscular and broad back. He was still super happy and sweet awhile ago, yet just because of a phone call, his attitude became like an old woman with menopause.

She really doesn't get Hongqi's personality. Most of the time he's overly sweet and then there are times he's so cold and domineering. Until today, Xiulan doesn't know Hongqi's original and genuine side.It may take her a whole lifetime to understand this man.

Hongqi came back with grapes, three slices of watermelon, and two slices of mangoes on one plate. While on the other plate, it's full of different sliced fruits he picked for Xiulan.He doesn't have that handsome frown anymore and it's now masked with a sweet smile.

Xiulan wanted to understand his weird mood swings and attitude. "I apologize with what I said. But work related issues shouldn't bother a person for a long time." She apologized but also lectured him. Though he has that smiling face again, she kind of wanted to give him an advice. She heard from a speaker before that a person shouldn't dwell on small mishaps that happens in their daily lives.

Hongqi handed the other plate to Xiulan and gestured her to eat it. Xiulan took the plate and said her thanks then he sat beside her. He picks the watermelon on his plate and made a large bite on it.

"I'm not mad or angry. This is just me when I'm working. I tend to be very irritable when I hear something stupid." He explains while he has food inside his mouth then he continue to devour the watermelon.

Xiulan understands that each person has a different attitude when they are working for professionalism's sake. But most people she encountered in the business world were snooty and fierce. For example, this husband of hers. Whenever he interacts with his haughty lawyer and Secretary Yang Bo or anyone below him, he has that intimidating, domineering aura that makes people's body hair rise. He was snooty, rude and rugged too whenever he talks to them.

She gets to taste his wrath sometimes and she concludes that she wouldn't like him as her boss in case she was an employee in his company. Though bad boss can make employees stronger and smarter, but him as a boss is like facing death.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Hongqi asked when he felt Xiulan's sharp and heavy stare at him. He's not sure if he did something weird or rude. He was a little irritated awhile ago because unimportant people kept calling him while he's having a vacation. The audacity of these people to pester him. He wasn't mad at Xiulan but her suggestion awhile ago was really out of place.

Xiulan let go of the topic since it was an insignificant matter and she wanted to divert their conversation to somewhere else. She has been curious about his very long list of romantic and lustful affairs and it seems to be the right time to ask him. Though she was not a nosy person, but as his unwilling wife he married, she wanted to understand him more so they can live merrily while they are still together.

While they were scuba diving earlier, she thought a lot of stuff between their relationship. They have been cohabiting really well and no problems. They are in good terms and their friendship is healthy. They fight sometimes but it's because of Hongqi's perverted ways and annoying childish behavior. They take care of each other like a real family too. Though romantic feelings are not present between them, but unconditional love for a family is present and that makes the proper recipe for a harmonious relationship.

But one ingredient is lacking and that is lust. If they can't have romantic love then they at least must have lust. Hongqi has lust for her but she doesn't have any lust for Hongqi.

According to old women's advice, marriage must retain the lust between the couple so they could be together for a long time. Usually, if the other party loses that main ingredient, that's the start of the fall of the relationship.

Xiulan must have this so called lust for Hongqi if she doesn't want to have any problems being together with him. Sex is inevitable not to happen between them since Hongqi kept declaring to her that he doesn't want to touch other women because he has a wife.

Truthfully she thought he's only taking care of his reputation that's why he doesn't want to involve himself with other women. And if they will reach consummating their marriage, she must be willing so she could enjoy it as well. The woman should also enjoy it!

Right now, she's very lazy in coming up with a good plan on how to divorce him since he has been a very good husband. Whenever she thinks about that billion dollar penalty, it only gives her a lot of headaches. She only wanted to divorce him because she didn't like him in the first place and some of their principles were not align. She still doesn't like him until now but he was less annoying than before.

Divorce was her number one plan when she still hated Hongqi to death. But now that they reached this moment in their marriage life, cohabiting together was not bad at all.

"May I ask you something personal?" Xiulan asked and she keenly observes his expression. Her question was kind of explicit so she must take measure of his mood if he was in a foul mood or not before she asks him.

"Sure. What is it?" Hongqi asked while he picks another fruit to devour.

"May I ask why you have a lot of women? Why do you have a lot of bed warmers before? Are you still enjoying this lifestyle? You don't have STDs right?" She fired these very personal questions at him mixed a very concerning expression. Hongqi lost it when he saw her expression.

Hongqi almost choke on the fruit he was eating. He coughed very badly and drank a mouthful of water to ease the itch in his throat.

"Why are you suddenly asking that?" Hongqi was able to regain his composure. He looks back at his curious wife and a playful curve rose from his lips. "Was she jealous?" his mind made a hopeful question.

"Sorry, I'm just making sure you are a clean man. This may sound weird but you are far more experienced in sex by tenfold than me, who has zero experience. I feel like I'm in a very oppressing situation. I never had a boyfriend while you get to date different beauties. I just don't know how this will work and give in to your naughty demands." Xiulan pouted and gave him a concerning look. She felt like this was really unfair for an innocent woman like her.

Certainly, at one point in her life she wanted to experience sex too but her partner was really high-level in this matter and she's afraid about a lot of things.

She was afraid of experiencing this with a man like him. What if it hurts so much? He was really tall and has a very masculine body. She had seen his manhood too. Will that thing even fit?

Also, she was far more concerned if she'll do a good job. Will he even enjoy it? Gosh, she has a lot of concerning questions.

Hongqi's smile grew wider. He can see the anxiety in Xiulan's eyes. She was really innocent and her asking this to him made his heart flutter a little. She's now having interest in this topic.

He placed the empty plate on the small table near the chairs and wrapped his arms on her shoulders.

"First, I have a lot of women before because I'm handsome and rich. Men like me tend to have a natural womanizing characteristic. We are very fickle and capricious especially when we are teenagers and young adults." Hongqi explains and didn't let his eyes wander anywhere. He wanted to see her expression. Xiulan frowned at his explanation and wanted to smack his head. He was so arrogant.

"Go on." Xiulan coldly said. She was patient in listening to his cocky commentary.

Hongqi was a little hesitant to answer her second question. If he answers wrongly, then she might think he's a turn off.

"As you heard from the gossips, women would throw themselves at me because I'm very powerful. As a man with too much vigor, I wouldn't reject their advances. It's a free meal after all and with a beauty too." Hongqi animatedly confessed. "But of course I'm still very picky. I only pick the beauties." He added and winked at Xiulan.

Xiulan made a disgusted look at him and pinched his arm. "You are really annoying."

"Wait, I'm not finish answering your questions yet. I don't enjoy that wild lifestyle anymore since I graduated from that already. Such boredom might bring me back there but since I have a hot wife like you, I wouldn't dare going back." He naughtily smirked and quickly stole a kiss on Xiulan's cheeks. "Yummy!"

Xiulan raised her eyebrows at him and wiped her cheeks with her hands."How about your health?" She asked the most important question again.

"I'm a clean man! How many times do I have to tell you that I don't have any sickness or STD? If you want to see my health certificate, I can ask Secretary Yang Bo to send it to Maldives." Hongqi assured her that he was in the green zone. Of course he's healthy and clean. Gosh, he's rich. It'll be an embarrassment that he is rich but unclean.

Xiulan only deeply frowned and contorted her forehead. She believes in him but... What kind of trigger or measurements must they reach for her to willingly consummate their marriage? Her heart became nervous and unstable. How can Hongqi seduce her and make her say yes?

After that confrontation, the couple's yacht had to stop to the nearest island. The sand was really crisp white and there were a lot of live crustaceans near the shore. Xiulan was a little afraid to go near the shore since she imagined the crustaceans might prick her feet.

Hongqi decided that they should snorkel near the area and enjoy swimming. He also asked the servants to ready the double seat kayak boat.

Hongqi assisted Xiulan in wearing the life vest and while he assists her, he kept teasing her and whispering lovely words to her. She can't help but get flustered from his flirting.

After that, they jump to the sea again to snorkel near the yacht. Xiulan was really excited that she saw the colorful fishes again. But since they didn't go deep, Hongqi took advantage of Xiulan's happy mood and kept clinging on to her like a damn octopus. Xiulan didn't mind since she was still afraid of the sea and knowing Hongqi's presence is near her made her feel safe.

Because of this opportunity to be so close, when the timing was right, he suddenly kissed Xiulan and this time it was a deep kiss. Xiulan was surprised by his sudden action and panicked so she automatically clung on to him as a defense mechanism.

Their bodies became closer and Hongqi took advantage of it and pulled her closer. Xiulan's heart was thumping so much from the sudden panic and didn't know what to do. She doesn't know if she should push away Hongqi or could her heart bear swimming alone in this vast sea.

Hongqi was so busy savoring her mouth and the salt water was unavoidable that they can taste it. His hands were also roaming on her slender back and he let her legs embraced his waist since she was really panicking. He didn't dare to touch her anywhere private since it may give a wrong impression.

Eventually, Xiulan's heart relaxed and they continued their make out sessionin the middle of the blue sea.

This deep and wet make out session continued to the next island and to the last island until it became dusk. It's like they were thirsty for each other's lips and Hongqi managed to make Xiulan give up her beautiful lips willingly.

They were now back to the main island but they will be staying in the yacht tonight since Hongqi has a lot surprises and tricks for his wife.
