nLu Xinyi smiled happily at him and leaned over to peck to his cheek gently. Shen Yi had to fight the blush that threatened to creep over his pale features as a result of her usual gesture. His wife rarely initiates physical contact especially the intimate ones.

nIt was true that their plans had been upset with recent changes but this could be a great way to let Lu Xinyi that he could be an attentive and caring husband. He wanted to make their life as husband and wife as easy as possible which he was certain Lu Xinyi certainly felt the same way.

n“So am I forgiven now?” Lu Xinyi asked seductively.

n“You aren’t off the hook.” Shen Yi swung her up into his arms, pressing his body against her.

n“I want you,” she confessed. -.

nA moment later, Lu Xinyi felt her back pressed against the mattress of their bed.

n“Then you will have me.” Shen Yi wasted no time as his lips descended into her, leaving no more time for talking.

n—

nOnce her foot completely recovered, Madam Shen had allowed Lu Xinyi and Shen Yi to go home but not without giving Lu Xinyi several gifts. She slapped her cheeks lightly when she saw the lace undergarments and new night dresses that can put one’s imagination into full speed.

nWhat the heck with these people?

nLu Xinyi went to their walk-in closet and left the paper bag on one side, deciding to tidy it up late. Her attention caught one white paper bag with a huge box inside. Madam Shen had told her to open it once she feels like she’s ready for it. Ready for what? She wondered.

nWhat with the somewhat strange gifts she had received, Lu Xinyi was a little nervous about what her gift was. She took the paper bag back into their room and placed the long rectangular box on their bed. She slowly untied the ribbon and set it aside.

n‘Here it goes.’ She lifted the lid up and moved the papers aside.

nHer lips formed an ‘o’, clearly surprised at the content of the box. Her fingers trailed over the beautiful and intricate embroidery of white flowers along the color of the pink nightgown. A smile made its way on her lips as she took it out only for the smile to falter as soon as she had a good look over the material.

n“It’s see-through!” Her shock drained the color off her face.

nHow was this supposed to cover anything? Did Madam Shen think she needed some help to seduce Shen Yi?

nHer cheeks burned red. She didn’t know what was more embarrassing: the fact that Grammie gave her a revealing nightgown or the idea of what would be her husband’s reaction once she used that nightgown?

nEmbarrassed with what she was thinking, Lu Xinyi put the nightgown back inside its box.

nShen Yi had just come back from work and his mood lifted up as soon as he saw his wife coming on his way. With a quick kiss, she pulled his arm and told him to try one of the desserts she made that afternoon. With Shen Xue out of his home, Shen Yi felt somewhat better now that there was one less occupant in his lovely home.

nThey were about to step inside their home when they heard several loud voices and beeps coming from the household across them. It seemed that they will have a new neighbor with all the movers running around the compound.

n“Hey! Hey! Careful with that! You might break it!” A familiar voice rang from the crowd, taking both Shen Yi and Lu Xinyi’s attention. Shen Yi walked on their driveway, with Lu Xinyi trailing behind them.

n“Xue! What do you think you’re doing?” Shen Yi called out his brother’s attention who was talking loudly to one of the movers. Shen Xue turned his head and saw his brother and favorite Big Sis.

n“Yo! I will be your new neighbor starting today. Please be good to me!”

nShen Yi’s eyes flashed on his brother. So this was the reason why Xue didn’t come to work today! He had been planning to move closer to his place to continue to irritate him to no end.

n“If I throw a stick, will you go away?” Shen Yi seethed in dismay. Just when he thought he already got ridden of Shen Xue, he came back with a vengeance.
