Chapter 313 - You Know How to Complain Now? (1)
"Hey, Romeo. I know you want to check on me here but I'm reminding you to book your own hotel room. I'm not gonna share my bed with you." Tang Moyu said as she took a peek over his shoulder to see what he was cooking.
Feng Tianyi would rather cook a meal for her than feed her with something which he knew nothing about. God knows how those things were prepared. Plus, Tang Moyu had already gotten used to his cooking, thus she would choose it over anything else.
"What? No plus points for my effort in coming here?" Feng Tianyi looked at her incredulously. He was now dressed in a clean pair of black slacks and a light gray shirt, an apron was tied around his waist as he worked in the small kitchen at Tang Moyu's suite.
"I never asked you to come here." Tang Moyu countered. "So what are you cooking?"
She was more interested in the dish he was cooking right now than to argue with him. Her mouth started to water from the aroma that filled the kitchen. Feng Tianyi had asked the hotel staff to bring him the supplies he could use to cook dinner.
"Braised Pork Balls. The other one is Chow Mein. That's not yours alone, okay? You have to share it with me." The devil narrowed his eyes on the empress, knowing she would be able to finish all the food he made tonight.
"But I'm really tired and I'm hungry. You probably have eaten before you came here, but I haven't." She wrapped her arms around his waist and pressed her face on his back.
Feng Tianyi muttered words to convince himself to deny Tang Moyu, but the feeling of her soft body pressed against his was too hard to ignore. Had she already known that he would never deny her of anything she wished for?
"Fine." He muttered. The hell, he'd willingly jumped into the beauty's trap! Had the great, mighty demon fallen so low?
There was no other woman before who had managed to reduce him to this. It was laughable that he was willing to compromise to this extent just to please his woman.
Feng Tianyi laughed to himself. Was he just spouting reasons to be close to her? Was he just refusing to admit that he was now dependent on her, that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her and her twins?
"Ah, I know I've got the best." Tang Moyu chuckled and kissed his cheek. There wasn't too much difference in their heights anyway, so she had no problem reaching him for a kiss.
"Uhh… you're being unfair to me. You know that, Moyu?" He g.r.o.a.n.e.d, then watched her sauntaured towards the dining area to prepare the table. Since she couldn't assist him when he cooked, this was the only thing she could do to help him.
"Huh? You know how to complain now?" She said with a hint of amus.e.m.e.nt in her eyes. "I thought you only know how to say?'Yes, darling'?"
Tang Moyu couldn't remember when was the last time he declined or rejected any of her requests. She could literally count them on her fingers.
"Hey. We're two consenting a.d.u.l.ts here. We're in a relationship. I expect respect and trust too, you know." The devil defended himself. It was starting to become clear to him why He Lianchen was teasing him as a house husband.
He watched after the kids while Moyu was busy at work, looked after the house, cooked meals and waited for Tang Moyu's return every single day. Darn it. At this rate, he would really turn to one even before he actually married her.
"Oh, okay." Tang Moyu shrugged. In all honesty, they rarely argued seriously and she was starting to wonder how long it would take for Feng Tianyi to snap at her. Not that she was looking forward to it anyway. She was merely curious.
Once Feng Tianyi finished cooking, they ate together and started to clean the mess they left in the kitchen. With her hunger finally satiated, the empress's mood was better than earlier.
"You know you don't have to fly here to see me. We can do a video call like we used to." Tang Moyu said as she dried her hand with a clean towel while Feng Tianyi poured himself a glass of water as he sat on the high stool at the kitchen.
He placed a medicine on his tongue and gulped down the water he prepared earlier. A little more…. a few months more… Why did it feel so long when you are waiting for something?
"Moyu, I told you, it's different. Now that I can somehow walk, I want to spend more time with you." He explained, taking her hand in his. His gaze eyeing the ring on her ring finger. He'd seen her fiddling the ring whenever she was upset about something, but he didn't?dare to ask her about the ring.
"In public?" Tang Moyu knitted her brow, wrapping her arms around her midsection. "Are you sure?"
Song Fengyan had once told her about Feng Tianyi's preference to be alone and avoid the public eye, and yet and for him to come here alone, only to take a few bodyguards with him...
"Moyu, more than anything, I want to stand next to you. I want to protect you even if you really don't need it." Feng Tianyi said. "I want to be useful, even for once. I'm not asking you for anything but your heart, Moyu. Please be mine…"
