"Don't forget to miss me." She winked at him, leaving him speechless with her words.
Lu Qingfeng could only watch as his wife rushed to prepare for her meeting, kissing his cheek before hurriedly went to her study to do her work, leaving him alone at the dining table. He had never expected that she would have this cute, flirty side of her. His wife seemed to love riling him up sexually, and wasn't ashamed of being exposed to him now.
She felt amazing and Lu Qingfeng admitted that he was having trouble keeping his hands off of her now. He had never thought he'd feel anything as good as that. Never. Even the sound of his name leaving her lips sounded amazing.
He loved the sound Su Xiaofei was making whenever he drove himself in her. Every ounce of his being was determined to pound into her, make it as good for her as it was for him, with her tight heat enveloping him like a glove. He briefly wondered how she would look if her belly was swelling with their child.
Lu Qingfeng groaned at the thought. With his wife's thoughts about starting a family still undecided, he was sure that he was up for another long wait.
There were still times that he wondered if all of this was just a dream and that it was just a figment of his imagination, trying to show him his greatest desire, only to wake up to the harshness of reality.
If all of these were a dream, then he would rather not wake up. Having Su Xiaofei by his side, loving her without any reservations, touching her and making her writhe with desire… he wanted all of it.
Every morning, he would wake up finding her sleeping next to him, a hand reaching out to brush a lock off her face. Watching her sleeping soundly on their bed filled his chest with gratitude and elation at the same time, still in disbelief that she was with him and alive.
At least his nightmare of holding her limp and lifeless body had somewhat stopped haunting him at night. Lu Qingfeng never wanted to see that horrifying scene again. If he lost her again, he didn't know what he would do.
He sighed, willing himself to calm down. He glanced out the window that oversaw one part of his mother-in-law's garden. It wasn't time to be self-deprecating as there were other things he could do to occupy himself while his wife was attending the meeting and waiting for his in-laws to arrive in a few hours.
Yun Qingrong had been away for two weeks now and he had taken the responsibility of tending to her garden, pruning dead leaves from her plants. After he was done with breakfast, he went to the greenhouse and started tending to the plants.
Half an hour later, Su Xiaofei came out and joined him, bringing some refreshments for them. She smiled when she saw how focused her husband was, trying to tend to her mother's precious flowers. She had heard how he asked her mother for advice on how to handle them, and if there's anything he could do to make the others bloom in time.
"How is it going? Will it live until Mama returns?" He heard her ask as he tended to one of the rose variants Yun Qingrong was raising to crossbreed. He had caged it inside a glass with controlled temperature inside, trying to see if it would live after losing a considerable amount of its flowers and stems.
Lu Qingfeng shrugged, removing his gloves and accepting a glass of water his wife handed him. He hadn't noticed that he had been standing there in front of the working table for so long that Su Xiaofei had finished her meeting.
"I'm not quite sure, Feifei. I asked for an expert's opinion, but he said that I could only wait and see. It would be a real pity if it dies before Mother returns from the hospital."
"I'm sure it will be fine. Mama won't blame you if it wilted and died. You did your best, dear." Su Xiaofei assured him, thinking that her husband had been beating himself too much, trying to placate everyone around her.
She smiled to herself and hooked her arm with his, resting the side of her face on his strong arm. The little boy she met in the park when she was younger, who used to scowl and curl his nose in disgust at others, was starting to mellow down.
Lu Qingfeng's gaze smoldered as he glanced at her, but he didn't comment about her being 'touchy' these days. Not that he didn't like it anyway. If possible, he wanted to be alone with her and ravish her nonstop until both of them were satiated. Before this, he didn't understand why newlywed couples needed a week or a month for their honeymoon, but he now understood.
They were already married for over almost a month now, but he felt like it was only yesterday when he put her wedding ring on her finger. Then his phone rang and he was forced to pull away from his wife's warmth for a moment.
Lu Qingfeng frowned when he saw the familiar name on the caller ID and answered it anyway. He had a feeling that something was up again if Song Yiran was calling him out of the blue.
"Hey. The rest of the brotherhood found out. They are planning to fly to Qiying City and meet your wife as we speak." He heard his friend say with an amused laugh.
Lu Qingfeng pinched the bridge of his nose and took a deep breath. He didn't need to ask Song Yiran how their 'brothers' found out about his marriage.
"You and your big mouth!" He muttered.
"Hey! Why is it my fault now? It was you who decided to keep your wedding a secret from them. It was you who shot your own foot for getting married before all of us did." Song Yiran's laughter could be heard from the other end of the line.
