Chapter 223: Chapter 198: Saving the Nation by a Roundabout Path

Li Si hurriedly washed her eyes with water, while Leng Mochen came up from behind, teasingly laughing: "Silly wife, who do you think it is?"

"Ah! You rascal, I’m showering here! How did you get in? Get out!" She managed to open her eyes with difficulty, angrily turned around to hit him, only to realize that this guy wasn’t wearing a thing.

He chuckled and took her punches, treating it like a morning massage—it didn’t hurt and actually felt rather pleasant.

"Of course, I’m showering too! Just came back from a run, sweating like crazy. How can I not shower?"

Li Si felt both embarrassed and angry. This man had been plotting for days to get her to take a lovers’ bath with him, but she hadn’t agreed. Today, he finally found a loophole. Carelessness led to losing ground; regret came too late.

"Go shower upstairs!" Li Si forcefully pushed him out.

He innocently rubbed himself left and right, taking advantage of the situation, his face still sporting a cheeky smile: "Dear wife, look, I’m already wet. Just a few minutes and I’ll be done. Can you really bear to let me catch a cold?"

Li Si bit her lower lip, her heart waging an inner battle, but suddenly her body was pushed against the wall, "What are you doing?"

"Wife, you’re too tempting in this pose. Come here, let your husband give you a kiss!"

"Mmph... mmph..." Her lips were instantly captured in a fierce kiss.

The shower ended up taking a full hour before they emerged. Li Si was dazedly wrapped in a towel and carried back to bed.

Her pink cheeks glowed radiantly, and Leng Mochen lingered affectionately on her lips, murmuring: "Baby, how can I ever love you enough?"

Li Si turned her head to the side, refusing to look at him in indignation. This man truly overstepped his bounds—wasn’t it supposed to be just a shower? In the end, he still managed to completely take advantage of her, leaving her thoroughly spent!

Oh, her poor waist—it felt like it might break!

Leng Mochen lay on the bed, letting her rest her head on the crook of his arm, gently kissing her smooth forehead to soothe her: "Don’t be mad! This is just me expressing how much I adore you! Think about it, today’s the last day of vacation. Where do you want to go? Hubby will take you!"

Li Si now felt more sore than angry. The deep love between them made it hard to keep their desires in check; it was perfectly natural after all.

Her feelings surged—she wanted to dote on him like crazy, love him to pieces, and even had the urge to bite his face hard.

"Really? You’ll actually go with me?" Li Si shot him a sidelong glance, already deciding on her destination in her mind.

"Of course! When your husband makes a promise, he keeps it!" He finished speaking and sneakily stole another couple of kisses from her rosy lips.

"Alright, that’s enough kissing! I’m hungry. Let’s eat, then visit Simeng’s place. How about that, President Leng?"

She hadn’t been there in a while and actually missed Su Meng and the others. Since they were out traveling, she had also brought back a few little trinkets to gift them. Taking the time to drop by today and catch up seemed perfect.

Leng Mochen frowned in displeasure: "Call me hubby at home! What’s with calling me President Leng? Come on, say it! Just now, who was pleading with their hubby..."

Li Si was so embarrassed that if there had been a crack in the floor, she’d have dove right into it. "Stop talking about it!"

Leng Mochen understood the importance of knowing when to quit; if he truly angered her, she might not even let him share the bed in the future.

"Okay, okay, I won’t talk about it anymore! I’ll seriously complete the mission assigned by my wife. Come on, dear wife, let’s freshen up and get dressed to go eat, okay? Then your husband will take you there!"

"Now that’s more like it!"

The two had their meal and then drove to Simeng’s place. After all the morning commotion, it was already past 1 PM by the time they arrived. Leng Mochen was called away by Long Wu at the last minute but promised to pick her up later.

Li Si entered the store by herself and handed Su Meng the shell trinkets, squid strips, and fish slices she had brought, asking Su Meng to distribute them to the staff.

After handing everything out, Su Meng returned, enviously remarking: "Sisi, what do you use for your skin? It’s practically glowing! Your face is like a walking advertisement for our store! You should come by more often whenever school isn’t too busy!" Correct content is on f(r)eew(e)bnovel.(c)o(m)

Li Si instinctively touched her face after hearing that. "Is it really that nice? I just dabbed on some toner and moisturizer before heading out today!"

Su Meng rolled her eyes at her: "You think I’m lying to you? I wouldn’t even bother trying to convince you to buy a membership card!"

"Haha, exactly! A membership wouldn’t be useful for me anyway—it’s all my own money whether coming or going, so what’s the point?"

Upon saying that, the two burst into laughter. Since Simeng had opened for business and started doing well, Su Meng’s personality had become livelier, even able to joke playfully with customers at times.
