Chapter 149 - 149: Acting Coquettish



Since it was the eve of the lunar new year, Huo Zheng was not as strict with her diet as he usually was. After dinner, she continued eating snacks until it was time to brush her teeth. After eating so much, it was not strange that she felt bloated.

Huo Zheng held her in his arms and gently rubbed her stomach with his warm hand. He asked, “Still not sleepy?”

Lin Xiaowan was indeed very energetic. She did not even yawn once. She nodded and said, “Why don’t you read to me like you do at home?”

Huo Zheng’s voice was very pleasing to the ears. His voice was steady and calm when he read. Although he usually read foreign and financial books and Lin Xiaowan did not understand anything, she found his voice soothing.

Huo Zheng laughed softly when he heard her. He said, “At this time, there’s a better way for you to fall asleep compared to that.”

“What is it?”

Lin Xiaowan was full and lazy so her reaction was a little slow. She only reacted when Huo Zheng’s hand on her stomach slid across her waist. She shivered immediately. She glanced at the clock before she said, “It’s already 1 AM…”

She knew Huo Zheng really well. If she followed his wish now, she definitely would not be able to wake up in the morning.

Huo Zheng moved his hand to the back of her neck and raised her head before he leaned down to kiss her. Then, he said, coaxing her, “It’s fine. We don’t have to wake up early tomorrow. We don’t have to visit anyone either…”

Lin Xiaowan hesitated for a moment before she gave in to him.

It had been a while since the duo had any intimate time. Huo Zheng managed a huge corporation, and it was only normal that he was extremely busy, especially before the holidays. He woke up early every day and came home late. He would fall asleep in seconds after getting into bed.

In short, Lin Xiaowan did not have any reason to refuse him, and it did not take long before she could no longer think about anything else.

On the first day of the lunar new year.

When Lin Xiaowan woke up, she thought that it was dawn. However, when she glanced at the clock, she discovered that it was already past two in the afternoon.

Lin Xiaowan was still very groggy. The curtains in the room were drawn so the room was only faintly lit. It was snowing outside so the sky was dark as well, making the room even darker.

She did not know what kind of medicine Huo Zheng had taken last night, but he was very energetic. Perhaps it was just because they had not been intimate for a long time. In the end, she had to plead for mercy. She was so tired when it ended that she did not even know when she fell asleep.

Although it was past 2 PM, she still felt a little sleepy. However, she was not hungry. When she was half-awake in the morning, Huo Zheng had fed her something. She smacked her lips. She had no impression of what she had eaten at all.

Lin Xiaowan got up and fumbled around for her phone. Before sleeping, Huo Zheng would usually place her phone far away, afraid that it would disturb her.

She pulled the curtains to the side and found her phone on the shelf.

Outside the window, huge snowflakes fell from the sky. It had been snowing for a while so there was a thick layer of snow on the ground.

Lin Xiaowan took her phone from the shelf and looked at it. There were a few new year’s greetings from the filming crew, and there was also a message from Gu Yuwu asking where she was and if she was doing anything today. Cheng Ruitong also sent her a personal message, and she made a note to reply to the other party.

Qiao You’an also sent a message.

[Qiao You’an: Xiaowan, when you wake up, eat the warm soup and porridge we left for you in the kitchen. There are also dumplings we made in the morning, yellow rice cakes, and glutinous rice balls. The chef is working today. Just tell him to prepare those things for you. Just treat this as your home. Don’t be shy.]

[Qiao You’an: I’ve already told Huo Zheng about this, but 1 was worried he’d forget about it so I decided to remind you. We’ve gone out with Dabao and Erbao so there’s no one at home. Don’t be afraid. We’ll be back in the afternoon.]

Lin Xiaowan could not help but smile when she saw how Qiao You’an treated her like a child.

When Lin Xiaowan went to change, she was stunned when she saw herself in the mirror. She did not feel it last night, but there was a particularly distinct handprint on her waist. When she saw it, she could not help but curse at Huo Zheng inwardly.

After she changed, Huo Zheng entered the room and hugged her.

“You’re awake.”

Lin Xiaowan originally planned to complain about his behavior last night, but when she looked at him, her words were stuck in her throat. This was because she had seen the huge bite mark on his chin. She looked away guiltily, trying to pretend she did not see it.

Huo Zheng did not let her get away with it. He held her waist and asked, “Did you see it? This is evidence of your evil deed…”

‘Look at how he’s complaining first!’

Lin Xiaowan stepped on his foot and glared at him. “How dare you talk nonsense? Who committed evil deeds?”

Alas, her voice was soft, and she looked harmless. Huo Zheng was even more amused when he heard her words. After helping her put on her slippers, he carried her to the kitchen downstairs.

The Huo family’s old residence was big so there were always employees around all year round. The difference was whether there were more or fewer people depending on the occasion.

Lin Xiaowan, who was being carried, was embarrassed and blushed when she saw the employees.

“Let me down. 1 can walk.”

Huo Zheng did not let her go. He did not even pause and carried her straight to the dining room.

“Don’t be shy. Brother and Sister-in-law often do this. They’re used to it.”

While Lin Xiaowan was eating, Huo Zheng gave her a red packet. This was not the first time she received a red packet from him. He had given her one last year as well. Instead of cash, her red packet contained a card.

“Thank you, Brother. You’re the best,” Lin Xiaowan said coquettishly.

Seeing that there was no one in the dining room, Huo Zheng leaned over and kissed her. After that, he did not let her go. Instead, he pulled her over onto his lap and hugged her as she continued to eat.

After the meal, Huo Zheng showed Lin Xiaowan the interior design for the house in Xilin Imperial Garden, which was being renovated. The design was simple with muted colors. At this time, it was only equipped with basic furniture and appliances. There was no need for major renovations, and they only needed to decorate the house and buy furniture.

Lin Xiaowan did not need to do much. She only needed to look at the designs to see if she liked them.

A week later, Lin Xiaowan received a notification from the Venus Hope Competition, informing her that she had advanced to the next round again.

She was playing with Little Chestnut when she received the call. She was a little shocked when she heard about it.

“I managed to advance to the next round again? How many rounds are there in total?”
