Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

“You want me and Xiang Nanqian to have a child that badly?”

Mu Tongrui was dazed, “Xiaohan isn't yours and Xiang Nanqian's?”

Fu Lingye crossed his brows as he flicked her forehead, “Why would you think that way? Xiang Nanqian is my brother's wife. How could I have a child with her?”

“Really?”

Mu Tongrui felt a wave of emotions. Fu Lingye nodded. She was over the moon.

She tip-toed and hugged him around his neck.

Fu Lingye was taken by surprise and only managed to respond after a few seconds. His hands rested gently against Mu Tongrui's back.

Mu Tongrui rested her chin on his shoulder and spoke, “I'm sorry I misunderstood you.”

The man pushed her back as his hand held her waist. His eyes shone, “I don't accept words of apology. I want something more practical.”

She blushed and suddenly felt shy, “But I'm still wounded.”

“Your hands are not needed for such deeds.”

Does Fu Lingye have a fetish for bullying the injured? Ok?

Mu Tongrui's lips twitched and her ears burned. Yet, her body obediently leaned forward, eyes shut as she waited for the kiss.

But the kiss did not happen and the hands wrapped around her waist had loosened.

She opened her eyes to see the man's teasing smile, “Can't wait?”

“You, you're the one who can't wait!”
