Little Miss Devil:The President's Mischievous Wife
16 The Kind of Kiss He Likes
"Leave your suitcase in the trunk, and I will wait for you on the other side of the street while you fetch your other luggage."
"Or I can take a cab, and you can message me your address?"
"Not happening. We just got married; you think you can just leave me like that?"
"Shen Yi, I'm just taking my luggage. Why are you so frustrated about it?"
"And yet you were leaving to the safe room with your ex. Please don't tell me you two shared a room."
She was ashamed to tell him the truth, but she couldn't lie to him.
"I only moved to his place because I couldn't pay the rent of my last apartment. We did share the same room and bed, but I swear we haven't crossed the line."
Shen Yi didn't respond, but Lu Xinyi knew that he wasn't happy with her situation.
He stopped the car when the stop lights turned red.
"How long have you been living with him?"
"About six months or so, but we've been in a relationship for almost seven years now."
"Seven years…" Shen Yi repeated. Lu Xinyi was only twenty-five now, that would mean she'd been out with Gong Yijun since she was eighteen. Long time for being boyfriend and girlfriend.
"Then why didn't you sleep with him?"
With seven years being together, shouldn't she be comfortable enough to be with her ex-boyfriend?
She took a deep breath and leaned her forehead on the window. She didn't want him to think that she was that petty and childish.
"I wasn't ready for that. What's more, we weren't married. I would like to marry someone like my dad. I wanted a marriage like what my parents had when they were both alive."
She hadn't heard Shen Yi respond to what she said so she assumed that he understood where she was coming from.
Lu Xinyi adjusted to her seat and pulled out her phone as Shen Yi drove along the busy streets of the city. Checking her messages, her brows furrowed.
How many times did Gong Yijun message her and call her number? Good thing that she turned off her phone as soon as her deal with Shen Yi started.
'Where are you? Answer your phone.'
'Please, Xinyi. It isn't what you think it is.'
'Come home, please. I will be waiting for you.'
She stared at the messages for a long while.
"Something's wrong?" Shen Yi asked when he noticed her unusual silence.
Lu Xinyi smiled and shook her head. She then deleted the text messages.
She was over with Gong Yijun. Now that she's a married woman, her concern should be for her husband only.
"So where are we going?" she asked. She noticed that there weren't going on the way to Gong Yijun's apartment.
"To a store." The stoplight changed to green, and he continued his driving.
"Why?"
Shen Yi turned his head to her and grinned. He extended a hand to hers and threaded their fingers together.
And that something almost made Lu Xinyi cry in surprise and happiness. She knew she shouldn't ask or expect something from him. But as he slipped a wedding band on her ring finger, she couldn't control her tears.
"You shouldn't have bothered to give me one," she said, but still accepted her ring.
She could really say now that she was indeed a married woman.
"You're my wife. It's only appropriate to give you one."
They went back to his car so he could drop her off at her previous residence. Before he could turn on the engine of his car, Lu Xinyi held his arm, leaned from her seat, and gave him a quick peck on his cheek.
He was stunned, not expecting his wife would do something like that. His eyes took in the sight of her, seeing how her eyes gleamed with happiness. Her cheeks were slightly tinted.
Was it his own doing? Did he really make her happy for the first time?
Something flitted on his eyes as he looked at her face. Lu Xinyi turned her eyes away, afraid of what she might see, but she was fully aware that her cheeks were heating up under his gaze. She retracted away from him.
"I'm sorry. Did I offend you?" she asked after the long silence.
"No." His thumb lightly grazed at the back of her hand. "It's just I don't do pecks on the lips." Then his eyes spotted the gloss on her lips. By the way, he was looking at her, Lu Xinyi knew that the kiss he meant would be too much for her to handle.
Lu Xinyi sat there with wide eyes. Her hand could still the feel of his touch on her skin. Her cheeks burned with a bit of embarrassment and shyness.
"Or I can take a cab, and you can message me your address?"
"Not happening. We just got married; you think you can just leave me like that?"
"Shen Yi, I'm just taking my luggage. Why are you so frustrated about it?"
