Meng Ying pounced on him and they both fell onto the grass. She grabbed his collar and grinned from ear to ear. “Hubby, did you miss me?”

She was still as passionate as ever.

This action seemed childish, but it did not seem weird when she did it.

Mu Yuansheng had figured out her plan anyway. “Get up.”

“Tell me first if you miss me.” Meng Ying pressed him down and wouldn’t get up.

“So many people are watching. This is inappropriate.”

“What’s wrong with that? You’re my husband, and I’m your wife. If you think it’s inappropriate for me to press you down, then why don’t you do it then?”

“…” Mu Yuansheng’s ears turned red.

Meng Ying smiled and lay down on top of him. She touched his chin and said, “I haven’t seen you for a few days. Why are you getting more handsome?”

Mu Yuansheng did not know if it was because of her, but his chest tightened and his breathing became heavy.

He didn’t know if she felt it, but he could clearly feel the changes in a certain part of his body.

“Get up.” His voice was unusually hoarse.

Meng Ying shook her head.

Ah Da and the servants were already standing far away. They wanted to look but did not dare to. They could only look at the reflection through the French windows with their eyes narrowed.

“Do you believe that I’ll kill you?” Mu Yuansheng gnashed his teeth as he breathed heavily beside her ear.

Meng Ying wanted to shake her head again, but she stopped and quickly got up when she saw the man’s burning eyes.

He could do whatever he wanted with her, but not here.

She had to get up. It would be inappropriate for them to use the ground as a bed, or the sky as a blanket.

Mu Yuansheng finally heaved a sigh of relief. He stood up and took off his jacket, placing it on his arm and covering himself naturally. His clothes covered the parts that shouldn’t be conspicuous.

Meng Ying saw the man’s actions. She had first thought that he could stay calm, but it turned out that he couldn’t stand her flirting either.

The two of them entered the house together and Mu Yuansheng returned to the bedroom at once.

Meng Ying followed him upstairs and waited at the door after he entered the bathroom.

Listening to the sound of trickling water, her mind was filled with thoughts of the body beneath the water.

It wasn’t that she hadn’t seen a man’s body before, but she had always seen them during combat. It was very different to look at it sexually.

Meng Ying waited for a long time, about half an hour. She frowned and looked puzzled.

‘Does a man need this long to take a shower?’

The sound of water stopped.

The door opened.

Mu Yuansheng wiped his hair and saw that she looked like she had been waiting for a long time. He asked with an unnatural gaze, “What are you doing here?”

“I’m waiting for you.” Meng Ying leaned over and sniffed. “You smell so good.”

Mu Yuansheng’s throat tightened and he looked down at her. “How long have you been here?”

“I was here right after you went in.” Meng Ying asked, “Why did you take so long?”

Mu Yuansheng felt his ears burning. He turned his head awkwardly and walked past her, ignoring her.

At night, Auntie Lian prepared the medicine for Meng Ying and passed it to her.

Different from how she drank the medicine without complaints when Mu Yuansheng wasn’t around, Meng Ying showed an unhappy expression.

She peered at the bowl of medicine. “Bitter.”

Auntie Lian said, “A good medicine should taste bitter.”

“Hubby, I don’t want to drink it.” It had been a few days since she had tasted a man. Seeing that he was cold to her today as well, she could not waste this good opportunity.

Mu Yuansheng knew what she was thinking and said coldly, “Forget it if you don’t want to drink.”

“Huh?”

Auntie Lian was also surprised.

‘Didn’t Sir used to think of ways to coax Madam to drink medicine? What happened today?’

“You will sleep well if you don’t drink it,” Mu Yuansheng said indifferently.
