Chapter 424: Pleasing to the Ear
Su Chen indeed had no interest in the Liu Family's affairs; now, aside from caring for Lin Ruoxue's health, his only concern was his own cultivation.
Originally, he felt that he was about to enter the Eighth Layer Realm, but because he had used a considerable amount of qi, blood, and True Yuan to heal Lin Ruoxue, he needed to recuperate before it was possible.
After half a day of cultivation, Su Chen felt rejuvenated, full of energy. He first cooked some sticky rice porridge, then made two delicate and light dishes, and finally packed everything to take to the hospital.
Upon Su Chen's arrival, he let Lin Wenqing and his wife go back to rest. Seeing that their daughter had woken up, they tactfully decided not to be a third wheel any longer.
Lin Ruoxue intended to eat the porridge herself, but Su Chen insisted on feeding her; Lin Ruoxue had no way of stopping him, so she just went along with it. Find your adventure at My Virtual Library Empire
However, being so carefully pampered by Su Chen filled her heart with a sense of bliss...
"Husband, I don't want to stay in the hospital anymore,"
Lin Ruoxue said somewhat coquettishly after finishing the porridge.
"Alright, if you don't want to stay, we won't stay. I'll go and handle the discharge procedures right away,"
Su Chen said indulgently as he stroked her head, confident that with him around, there was nothing to worry about.
The discharge procedures were completed quickly, and then Su Chen insisted on carrying Lin Ruoxue downstairs all the way to the car before setting her down.
All along the way, everyone's eyes were fixed on them, causing Lin Ruoxue's cheeks to redden with embarrassment. She buried her head in Su Chen's back to avoid being recognized.
Initially, Lin Ruoxue really didn't want him to carry her because it felt embarrassing, but the persistent fellow cited her weak physical condition as a reason, leaving her no choice.
You'd think he'd just carry her, but the hand gripping her buttocks was restless the entire time, making Lin Ruoxue feel like ants were crawling over her heart...
It didn't stop there; once they reached home and Lin's mother had already gone to sleep, the scoundrel took advantage of the situation to sleep with her, claiming he was worried something might happen to her.
Lin Ruoxue knew her unscrupulous husband well enough to know that he wouldn't rest until he achieved his goal, so she nodded in agreement, after all, it wasn't the first time they had slept together.
No sooner had she nodded, than the rascal scooped her up in a princess carry, dashed upstairs, entered the bedroom, and with a swift move, the door was closed behind them!
Then Su Chen gently laid her on the bed, his gaze burning with intensity as he looked at Lin Ruoxue.
Feeling like a deer caught in the headlights under his gaze, Lin Ruoxue stammered,
"Husband, why are you looking at me like that?"
His response was a passionate kiss, which took Lin Ruoxue completely by surprise. At first, she was in shock, but soon she couldn't help but wrap her arms around him and fiercely reciprocate.
After a lengthy, deep French kiss, Lin Ruoxue was gasping for air, and Su Chen finally let her go. He smiled softly and said,
"Wife, you're wonderful!"
"After being bullied by you like that, of course you'd say I'm wonderful!"
Lin Ruoxue cast a sultry glance his way as she spoke.
"But you enjoyed it just now, didn't you?"
Su Chen said to Lin Ruoxue with a smile.
"Don't say that!"
Lin Ruoxue stretched out her delicate hand to cover his mouth, her face a deep shade of red!
Su Chen was a bit puzzled—surely they'd done it, so what was there to be afraid of saying?
However, he didn't dwell on it, rolling off of Lin Ruoxue and pulling the blanket over them both:
"All right, wife, let's go to sleep!"
"Mmm."
Soon after the light was out, within two minutes, Lin Ruoxue rolled to his side, embracing Su Chen's chest and resting her face against his back, feeling even more secure that way.
"Husband, did you talk to me a lot while I was unconscious?"
In the darkness, Lin Ruoxue's voice emerged.
"Mmm, how did you know?"
"Just a guess. What exactly did you tell me, husband?"
"Nothing much, just some random thoughts."
"How come I feel like someone told me we've never been a true husband and wife and that I've missed out a lot? Is that something you said, husband?"
"Uh, no, definitely not. How could I say such shameless words?"
"Really?"
"Of course it's true!"
"And talking about how there are many women who are after you, and something about being taken away by another woman? You didn't say those things either, did you?"
"Of course not! Absolutely not, a hundred times no, a thousand times no. Wife, rest assured, your husband will definitely not be stolen away!"
"But why do I feel like that voice sounds so much like you, husband?"
"You must have been hallucinating while unconscious! Definitely!"
"Husband, were you conscious while you were unconscious?"
"Hmm, on and off. Sometimes it seemed like I could sense the things around me, but my body just wouldn't respond!"
"I see, there's no need to worry about that. It's something that some people experience while unconscious."
"Then tell me, is what I heard during that time real?"
"I don't know about others, but what you heard, wife, was definitely not real. You probably love your husband too much and that's why you're so worried, and then this subconscious voice appeared in your head."
"Husband, can I ask you a question?"
"Of course, ask away!"
"How can you be so shameless?"
"I've married such a beautiful wife like you, what do I need a face for?"
"Husband, you're really shameless!"
"Do you want your husband to be even more shameless for you to see? Hehehe!"
"No, husband, take your hand away..."
"If you don't take it away, I'll scream harassment!"
"Go ahead and scream, your husband is fully certified! Protected by the law!"
"Husband, I was wrong..."
"Really wrong?"
"Hmm!"
"Then let's hear something nice!"
"Can you take your hand away first, please?"
"You first!"
"Husband, what kind of nice thing do you want to hear?"
"If I tell you, where's the sincerity in that?"
"Husband, you're really great!"
"Too bland!"
"Husband, you're really handsome!"
"Like I need you to tell me that!"
"What exactly do you want then?"
"Up to you!"
"Muah!"
"Does that work for you?"
"Works, works. Wife, you smell so good!"
"Tsk, big pervert!"
"It's just a man's true color!"
Su Chen finally fell into a peaceful sleep, but Lin Ruoxue felt somewhat indignant, almost wishing she could kick this bad egg off the bed!
The next day, early in the morning, when the sunlight streamed into the room, both of them opened their eyes almost at the same time.
"Wife, good morning!"
Su Chen greeted her warmly but only received a roll of the eyes in return...
Su Chen knew she was still angry about last night's incident, but he didn't mind, in fact, he found her quite amusing at the moment.
Lin Ruoxue was planning to get up as well, but Su Chen pinned her down on the bed:
"You're staying home and resting for the next few days, and you're not allowed to do anything! Did you hear me?!"
Although Lin Ruoxue was still miffed at him, his words warmed her heart a little...
