The Spoilt Wife’s Happy Life with the Commander - Chapter 34 - Dream Chocolate

Chapter 34 Dream Chocolate
Lin Qing didn’t remember how she got in bed.

She only had a vague memory of being kissed by Mu Li last night, and her heart beating extremely fast.

Then, what did Mu Li say?

Right, he seemed to have carried her back to the bedroom, gently placed her on the soft big bed, and said calmly—

“I’m going to take a shower.”

Lin Qing recalled that she and Mu Li looked at each other for a moment and she nodded calmly as well.

However, Lin Qing did not know what had happened after Mu Li got out of the shower.

Because, when Mu Li was taking a shower, she…

fell asleep.

Lin Qing felt bad about it. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and got up, looking around the room.

Although it was late in the morning, the room was still very quiet. Rays of sunshine streamed through the half-closed curtain, and fell at the end of the bed.

It seemed rather late.

Lin Qing thought she should go to Mu Li and apologize to him. She rolled over and was about to get out of bed to look for him.

When she just put one foot on the floor and was to get up, she saw something on the nightstand.

The package seemed very familiar.

She then looked at it carefully, and found out they were two bars of delicious chocolate of a well-known brand.

It was the brand and flavor that she usually chose.

Lin Qing couldn’t help but pick them up curiously.

She seemed to have had a similar dream. But that dream was in the night, not in the daytime.

Lost in deep memories, Lin Qing was stunned.

This dream… seemed to be real.

The person in her dream was Mu Li.

In her dream, she could clearly see that she was sleeping deeply on her side while Mu Li came out of the bathroom and walked to the bed sullenly.

“Lin Qing?”

Mu Li whispered to her.

She wanted to respond but was too sleepy to do so. She could only nod slowly.

At the moment, she seemed to hear Mu Li sigh softly.

Lin Qing wanted to ask him why he sighed, but she didn’t have enough strength to speak. She could only think about this question in her mind.

At that moment, Mu Li’s phone was ringing.

He picked up the phone, answered indifferently, and left the room.

Lin Qing heard the door close and fell asleep.

After a while, perhaps after a long time, Lin Qing somehow heard footsteps in her sleep.

She lifted her eyelids hard and saw Mu Li slowly walking towards her.

Mu Li saw Lin Qing wake up, he put what he was holding on the bedside and said, “Eat this if you’re afraid of the dark. You’ll feel better.”

“Well… alright.”

Lin Qing answered with hesitance in a heavy nasal voice.

Mu Li did not fall asleep. Instead, he sat beside her and stroked her hair when she was in a daze.

This gentle gesture caused Lin Qing to groan. Her small hand groped for a while and grabbed his palm against her cheek, rubbing.

His palm was very big and warm.

Lin Qing was very satisfied and closed her eyes again.

Mu Li sat silently aside, eyes flickered with conflicted emotions.

In the middle of the night, Lin Qing suddenly woke up from her dream, but she couldn’t remember what the dream was about.

She turned the bedside lamp on and found that Mu Li wasn’t sitting next to her. And there were two bars of chocolate at the bedside.

The bedside lamp was a little dim, but Lin Qing felt somehow warm-hearted.

That was probably a dream.

Lin Qing thought. She felt that although the dream was not bright enough, she felt warmer.

This was all that Lin Qing had dreamed of—until then she finally realized that it wasn’t a dream.

But why would Mu Li give her two bars of chocolate for no reason?

Lin Qing had no clue for the moment, so she went to the study and asked Mu Li about it.

However, Mu Li was not in the study.

She went downstairs and didn’t saw him in the kitchen.

Not in the living room.

Even not in the bathroom.

That was strange. If Mu Li had to go out, he would definitely leave after she woke up.

And didn’t he say that he would like to have breakfast that she made every morning?

Although it wasn’t a big deal, Lin Qing was still a little upset.

She rubbed her head and sat listlessly on the sofa.

“Huh?”

Still in doubt, Lin Qing glanced at a note, neither big nor small, on the coffee table.

The handwriting indicated the manner and demeanor of the writer.

Lin Qing recognized it was Mu Li’s handwriting.

“Urgent call of the army.”

The words were simple and straightforward.

Lin Qing put down the note and felt strange. She felt relieved but somewhat lost.

She stretched herself, dressed up and rushed to workplace since she thought that Mu Li probably wouldn’t come back today.

Lin Qing felt a little guilty for not going to cinema with Lu Xiao. However, Lu Xiao was surprisingly forgiving for this. She didn’t take it to her heart at all.

“It doesn’t matter. Let’s go another time. The cinema won’t disappear anyway.”

Lu Xiao comforted Lin Qing while she ate a packet of snacks.

Lin Qing nodded at her words.

However, she couldn’t watch that movie with Mu Li either. Lin Qing felt it was a pity anyway.

She wished they could go together next time.

She thought to herself.

“What are you thinking about? You’re in a daze again.”

Lu Xiao pushed Lin Qing by the shoulder in time and woke her up.

Lin Qing tilted her head and rubbed her belly in circles with her small palm, “I’m hungry.”

Indeed, Lin Qing hadn’t eaten anything yet.

Lu Xiao looked speechless. She checked the time, “It’s almost time to get off work. Let’s go to dinner together later.

I happen to know a nice restaurant with delicious rice noodles nearby. ”

Hearing Lu Xiao’s words, Lin Qing felt her stomach was grumbling louder.

So she nodded firmly.

Fortunately, there wasn’t much work to do today. Lin Qing compiled several documents and it was time to get off work.

It was rare for her to pack up her things on time. When Lu Xiao came over, they could go immediately.

Lu Xiao was skinny and looked like a girl with small appetite.

She was actually a foodie.

With Lu Xiao, Lin Qing quickly learned about well-rated and time-honored snack diners in City A and even a snack street that Lin Qing didn’t know about before.

Lin Qing was impressed how well-hidden that street was.

Unlike Lu Xiao, Lin Qing did not like snacks and rarely went out for snacks.

So Lu Xiao’s sharing sounded like fresh stories for her.

Lu Xiao was very calm about it. “There are many famous snacks in City A and snack street that I just mentioned. However, a lot of people like you fail to discover them.”

She also clicked her tongue to assert her stand.

Despite Lu Xiao’s clear and logical introduction, Lin Qing didn’t think it was a big matter.

Still she didn’t say anything.

In Lin Qing’s opinion, the rice noodles of the restaurant were worthwhile.

She felt content with the meal, paid the bill and said goodbye to Lu Xiao at the intersection.

“Ask me out again if you’d like to have any snacks!”

Lu Xiao, who had walked away after saying goodbye, turned around and added enthusiastically.

Lu Xiao was especially passionate when it came to food.

But Lin Qing was otherwise preoccupied.

She went to bed soon after she got home.

It was rare for Mu Li to be away from home. She felt at ease looking at the empty room.

Before she fell asleep, she checked her phone. No messages or phone calls. She couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.

Maybe he was too busy with his work.

Wasn’t it possible that he was too busy to charge his phone or forgot to send the message in the middle of writing?

Lin Qing was absent-minded for a while. It was a common plot in TV dramas.

She gave up those thoughts and fell asleep peacefully.

Lin Qing thought, Mu Li would only leave for two or three days, and he would definitely send her a message on the fourth day.

However, on the morning of the fifth day, Lin Qing woke up and still did not receive any message.

She felt a little upset while she was sitting at the dining table and eating breakfast.

Why… why didn’t he contact her?

“Ring, ring, ring—” A shrill and ear-piercing sound broke up her thoughts.

It was the telephone ringing in the living room.

She walked to it unhurriedly, picked up the phone and said, “May I ask who you are looking for?”

Probably because she just woke up, she subconsciously thought she was at work.

Lin Qing replied lazily. As soon as Lin Qing’s mother heard it, she knew her daughter was still asleep.

“Qingqing, you haven’t woken up yet?”

Lin Qing’s mother smiled on the other end of the phone, “How are you and Mu Li doing? Why don’t you two come home and have lunch with us today?”

Lin Qing paused at her proposal.

“Mu Li and I have been pretty busy recently…” Lin Qing beat around the bush. She hoped her mother would get it and allow them to go home on another day.

“Busy?”

Lin Qing’s mother was clearly not as sensitive to this word as Lin Qing expected, “No matter how busy you are, you still have time to come back home and have a meal, don’t you?”

Although it was a question, Lin Qing’s mother said it like a statement.

Lin Qing reluctantly said to the phone, “He said that he would take me out today… we might not be able to make it to lunch.”

She spoke slowly as if words were stuck in her throat.

However, Lin Qing’s mother took it simply as shyness of Lin Qing.

“All right, all right. Since you two sweet lovers have to go out today, then mom won’t disturb you anymore.

Have fun!”

Lin Qing’s mother couldn’t hide her joy. She might even nudge Lin Qing’s father over the phone.

Lin Qing confirmed her saying. After her mother hang up, she let out a sigh of relief.

She felt… terrible to lie.

But what was even worse was that Mu Li hadn’t called her yet.

Another two days passed, she still didn’t hear anything from Mu Li.

A week had passed.

Lin Qing ate as usual, work as usual, and slept as usual.

Occasionally she listened to music and read books, having a good time.

However…

She checked her phone again before she went to bed. There was no message or call.

Somehow, Lin Qing got really down.

It was already midnight when Mu Li returned home. When he stepped into the room, he saw Lin Qing lying on the bed at first sight.

She lay curled up on her side, and her tiny figure looked very adorable.

Bathed in moonlight, Mu Li walked to the bed. Lin Qing’s long hair casually fell over her cheeks, shoulders, and her arms under the head.

From this angle, she looked like a pretty elf.

Mu Li haven’t seen Lin Qing for a few days, he did miss her.

Looking at her sleeping face, he felt warm-hearted.

So he supported himself with one hand on the bed, and bent to kiss her on the cheek.

He was about to kiss her when Lin Qing opened her eyes. She woke up.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Commander Mu Li, who had disappeared for the past few days.

When Lin Qing saw Mu Li was about to kiss her, she pushed him away impatiently with her small hands. Then she rolled over and fell asleep
