Chapter 504: 504. Divide and conquer

The lingering tender touch on his fingertips made Lu Moqing involuntarily curl his fingers.

Quietly savoring Qiao Xu’s words of praise and the way she straddled him on the rooftop, causing his whole body to feel lustful, Lu Moqing found himself with a dry and parched mouth.

His lower abdomen also heated up, and a certain part began to slowly swell, showing signs of standing erect.

In the future, he must never let this little demon drink alcohol again. Others only spend money on alcohol, but for her, it’s life-threatening – it threatens his "big brother" (slang).

Her tender offensive killed him invisibly.

Qiao Xu had no intention of continuing to engage with him. The more she engaged with him, the more energetic he became. On top of that, she was truly famished, and Lu Moqing’s noodles appeared simple but tasted as good as those made by a Michelin chef, which enticed her entire appetite.

Before long, the large bowl of seafood noodles in front of her was completely devoured, not even soup remained in the bowl.

Seeing his wife being so appreciative, Lu Moqing’s displeasure due to the torture of his "big brother" (slang) subsided a little.

"Are you full?"

He leaned in teasingly, a hint of playfulness in his eyes, "If you’re still hungry, hubby can give you more noodles."

"No need."

Qiao Xu rejected without hesitation. After rejecting him, she felt something was off, especially seeing the deepening smile in Lu Moqing’s eyes, that feeling of unease intensified.

She lowered her gaze and carefully considered his words and her response. After thinking about it, there seemed nothing wrong, yet the playfulness in Lu Moqing’s eyes kept her increasingly uneasy.

At last, she couldn’t hold back and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

The smile in Lu Moqing’s eyes slowly withdrew, the color of his pupils darkening slightly. He looked directly into Qiao Xu’s slightly angry eyes and chuckled softly the next second.

"Xuxu, I’ve noticed that your reactions are so much faster when you’re drunk."

Qiao Xu frowned, not understanding the meaning of Lu Moqing’s words.

But Lu Moqing being affectionate towards her still made her feel uncomfortable all over.

In short, she decided not to continue discussing this topic with Lu Moqing and stood up to start clearing the dishes.

Seeing that half of the noodles still remained in Lu Moqing’s bowl, she asked, "Are you still going to eat? If not, I’ll clean up."

Qiao Xu wasn’t at peace with having Lu Moqing both cook and wash the dishes, so she volunteered to clean up the bowls and chopsticks and wash the dishes.

Lu Moqing wasn’t hungry. He had been teased by the guy in front of him all night long, leaving him feeling full and bloated. The only thing he could eat was her; he had no desire for other foods.

"I’m not eating."

He looked at her with a smile and shook his head.

Qiao Xu found his smile increasingly unpleasant to look at. She averted her gaze and focused on tidying up the dining table and walking towards the kitchen with the used bowls and chopsticks.

Lu Moqing followed her closely. When Qiao Xu was about to wash the dishes, Lu Moqing stopped her.

"I’ll do it."

Qiao Xu glanced at him, her gaze briefly passing over his injured right arm, and shook her head.

"No need. Since you cooked the meal, let me handle the dishes."

For some reason, Lu Moqing felt a hint of sweetness in his heart upon hearing her words. The mundane happiness of an ordinary married life lingered within it.

"Do we really need to be so clear about the division of labor?"
