Chapter 36 - Get Up and Hit Me

Chapter 36 Get Up and Hit Me

Ji Lingchen had a headache. He rubbed his temples. No matter how hard he thought about it, he could not figure out why he had kissed her. It was fine if he had just kissed her, but he had even left her lips swollen. Could this be the so-called promiscuity of a drunk man?

Downstairs, Fang Xiaonuan sat alone on the steps. She took a deep breath to calm her heart rate. Then, she walked to the hall to entertain her husband’s good friends.

Old Master Ji asked, “Is he asleep?”

Fang Xiaonuan replied, “Yes, he went to sleep.” Fang Xiaonuan sat beside Old Master Ji. To be honest, she did not know how to entertain her husband’s friends. To put it bluntly, they were all strangers to her.

Ye Mubai was the first to notice Fang Xiaonuan’s mouth. It looked different from before. He gestured for Yao Qian to follow his gaze. Yao Qian looked at her lips, then nodded at Ye Mubai.

Ye Mubai was confused. ‘Why are you nodding at me?’

Yao Qian thought to himself, no wonder this little girl was in the room for so long before she came out. It turned out that she had gone to touch up her makeup. This deep lipstick shade was not suitable for her. It was too obvious.

Ye Mubai then shook Murong’s arm and gestured for him to look at Fang Xiaonuan. Murong nudged him right back and stared at Ye Mubai. ‘I’m not blind!’

The two of them kept fidgeting, and their eye contact was becoming even more obvious. Even Wang Yubo felt awkward, he stood up and said goodbye. “Uncle Ji, since Lingchen is home safe, we’ll leave first. We’ll visit again another day.”

Yao Qian and Zhao Yu quickly stood up and echoed, “Uncle Ji, we’ll head back first. We’ll visit you another day.”

Ye Mubai had sustained the most injuries from being beaten by Ji Lingchen, so he got up slowly. Murong was there to help him, so Ye Mubai finally got up. The Ji family members also got up to see him off.

It was late, and Ji Lingchen had fallen asleep. Old Master Ji did not ask any of them to stay longer. “Mm, thank you for sending Lingchen back. If you’re free, just come and visit me more often. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you guys.”

Everyone nodded. Fang Xiaonuan shadowed Old Master Ji and watched them leave.

As Ye Mubai was getting into the car, Fang Xiaonuan kept watching his strange movements. Only when the car was far away did Fang Xiaonuan heave a sigh of relief. She asked Old Master Ji curiously, “Dad, can I ask you a question?”

Old Master Ji nodded. “Sure.”

“That guy called Ye Mubai, is his tail bone broken?” Fang Xiaonuan asked like an idiot.

Old Masterji said, “You can ask Lingchen yourself when he wakes up!”

Fang Xiaonuan stood rooted to the ground in a daze. Why would she ask Ji Lingchen about this? She was puzzled. Old Master Ji smiled and looked at Fang Xiaonuan’s mouth. An observant person could tell what had happened with just one look. He turned around and left awkwardly.

Feng Qi followed closely behind Old Master Ji. Fang Xiaonuan called out to her, “Sister-in-law, thank you.” One thing led to another. Just now, she had reminded herself in the dining hall that she needed to thank her. However, this did not mean that she could let bygones be bygones.

Feng Qi did not say anything. She turned around and returned to the bedroom. Her impression of this young lady had changed slightly.

In the bedroom, Fang Xiaonuan looked at Ji Lingchen who was still in bed. She thought carefully. ‘I definitely did not take off his shoes just now.’ However, she looked at the neatly arranged pair of leather shoes and socks by the bed and fell into deep thought again. ‘But he was clearly asleep when I left just now!

Fang Xiaonuan poked ji Lingchen’s face with her index finger. “Hey, are you awake?”

Ji Lingchen usually had light sleep. Right now, even if he was not awake, Fang Xiaonuan would be waking him up. However, he still pretended to be asleep and ignored her with his eyes closed.

“He’s really asleep?” Fang Xiaonuan’s tone actually carried traces of joy. She looked at Ji Lingchen who was sleeping soundly and clicked her tongue. “My mother said that when a man gets drunk, he’s like a ‘dead pig’. He won’t wake up no matter what.”

“Ugh! I really didn’t expect to get this lucky. You, this ‘dead pig’, have fallen into my hands now.” Fang Xiaonuan sat by the bed and reached out to pinch Ji Lingchen’s face. The more she played with him, the happier she became. “I let you bully me. It’s never too late for me to take revenge! No, no, no.”

After making sure that Ji Lingchen would not wake up, Fang Xiaonuan became even more daring. She pinched ji Lingchen’s nose, not letting him breathe. After a few seconds, she let go.

At this moment, the man who was pretending to be asleep was secretly clenching his hands into fists. If not for the awkwardness from the kiss just now, he would have crushed Fang Xiaonuan right now!

Fang Xiaonuan was very excited. “Aren’t you amazing? Get up and hit me!”
