Chapter 274: Chapter 274: Hand in Hand, Step by Step Forward

Xiaoxiao only felt that her slipping at that moment was timely because she was now being caught from behind by her bargain of a husband in a rather intimate position.

After steadying his wife, Yang Ming asked anxiously, "Wife, did you twist your ankle? Does it hurt?"

Hearing Yang Ming’s words, Xiaoxiao felt as sweet as if she had tasted honey; Yang Ming was concerned about her.

She shook her ankle, which moved freely, and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, "It’s fine, I didn’t twist my ankle."

"..." Yang Ming frowned deeply. Was his wife’s foot really okay? He really wanted to smack himself.

Just now, he thought it was a good opportunity to get close to his wife. What if she got hurt because of this?

"You should still hold on to me. It’s not safe for you to walk by yourself."

Xiaoxiao felt great about the slip. See, her bargain of a husband was now taking the initiative to let her hold on to him.

When it came to leading men on, she was still a novice; she was too naive. Why hadn’t she thought about faking a slip in the first place?

She had to wait until she actually slipped to think of it, but luckily her foot was fine.

But did she really want to walk arm in arm with him? She hesitated; suddenly, she didn’t want to anymore.

Seeing that his wife made no move, Yang Ming was extremely disappointed. Perhaps his wife didn’t want to, after all. Before, she had no choice but to cling to him, but now she had a dog and didn’t need him anymore.

"Let’s go."

He sighed inwardly and said this before walking ahead on his own.

Xiaoxiao was still contemplating her next move when she saw her bargain of a husband walk away. Was he unwilling to let her cling to him?

Xiaoxiao snorted coldly. If you won’t let me cling to you, I’ll do it all the more. Not only will I cling, but I’ll also hold your hand.

"Yang Ming, stop!"

"..." Yang Ming had not walked far when his wife’s shout startled him, causing him to immediately stop and turn around.

His wife’s yell was definitely one of anger, and she even called him by name instead of ’husband.’ What was she angry about?

"What are you walking away for? Didn’t you tell me to hold on to you?"

"..." He thought she was unwilling; he longed for them to become closer, "Yes, hold on to me."

"..." This person, really, was so wooden. If she really fell for her in the future, would he take the initiative? She really had her doubts.

Shaking her head, Xiaoxiao felt she still had a long way to go. She stepped forward to walk side by side with her bargain of a husband and naturally took his hand, hanging down at her side, "This way it’s less likely to slip, let’s go."

Yang Ming was startled by his wife’s sudden action. What was she doing?

She took the initiative to hold his hand! Within a single day, his wife had taken the initiative to hold his hand twice, although there were reasons each time. The first time was to appease him, fearing he would make a scene, and the second was for fear of falling.

But even so, he was willing to hold her hand.

He then laced his fingers with hers and walked forward, his lips curling upwards. His wife’s hand was soft and warm, and he unconsciously started playing with it, gripping her hand tight, then loose, pinching it back and forth.

"..." What was her bargain of a husband doing? Why did he keep pinching her hand?

No matter, the hand-holding was a success! Give herself a pat on the back.

The two walked forward, hand in hand, each in a different state of mind, but both in equally good spirits.

Xiaoxiao was even happier, breaking into song, "Hearts reflecting hearts, hands holding hands, you lean on me, I lean on you, step by step we walk forward..."
