The Spoilt Wife’s Happy Life with the Commander - Chapter 42 - Stole a Kiss
Chapter 42 Stole a Kiss
Mu Li looked at the row of clear and clean teeth marks on his arm, and pinched Lin Qing’s chin to carefully examine her. He observed her from left to right, hoping to see some unusual clues.
Lin Qing kept her lips closed, feeling very regretful about her impulsive behavior.
She rolled her eyes and revealed an innocent expression. “Well…”
However, before she could say anything, she was interrupted by Mu Li. “Calculating by your age, it seems that you were indeed born in the Year of the Dog.”
What he said seemed reasonable.
Lin Qing silently gritted her teeth in her heart.
She couldn’t help but say in a soft voice, “But… Aren’t your hands numb?”

Lin Qing reminded him at the right time.
In view of Lin Qing’s previous good deeds, Mu Li still let her go for this time.
When the two of them sat in the middle of the stone bridge again in their normal postures, Lin Qing kept her words and placed Mu Li’s arm on her legs and carefully rubbed it for him.
She seemed to like rubbing it for him, and Mu Li seemed to enjoy the rubbing.
Looking from the stone bridge, the scenery was very good.
Lin Qing’s shoes lay quietly behind them. One of them was wet with water. As a result, Lin Qing sat barefoot on the stone bridge, with her two legs hanging from the bridge deck and swaying back and forth.
Mu Li also sat at the side, very close to Lin Qing. Even though he was sitting on the stone bridge beside a secluded stream like this, the cold temperament emitted from him did not decrease by the slightest amount.
However, this kind of temperament seemed to have no resistance to Lin Qing, and it was completely undetectable within a radius of two meters around her.
It was like a protective layer, or like a…
“Are you feeling better?” At this moment, Lin Qing interrupted Mu Li’s thoughts and tilted her head to look at him.
Her face was full of expectation.
Mu Li pretended to feel the rubbing and asked, “Are you rubbing my arm attentively?”
Seeing that Mu Li had wronged her so much, Lin Qing took the opportunity to poke him in the arm with some strength and widened her big eyes. “If you have to pick on me, you can rub it yourself.”
As she spoke, she was about to throw Mu Li’s arm back.
Because she was very dissatisfied with Mu Li, Lin Qing pouted as she kept swaying her feet, as if she was trying to vent anger in this way.
Mu Li took back his arm and folded his arms around his chest. Then he rapped on Lin Qing’s head with interest. “Are you angry?”
Lin Qing turned her head away and did not answer.
She suddenly realized that her mood seemed to be very unstable recently.
Lin Qing was very depressed about this. She wasn’t like this in the past.
“Are you still angry?” Seeing that Lin Qing had remained silent, the teasing intent in Mu Li’s eyes gradually dissipated.
He held Lin Qing in his arms and leaned over to see her face.
He wanted to see if she was really angry, and to see if he would…
If he would be a little less upset by doing so.
However, Lin Qing kept her head away from him and was unwilling to speak to him. Although she was hugged by Mu Li in his arms, she still tried her best to look in another direction.
Mu Li moved his mouth closer to her ear and whispered, “Are you really angry?”
Lin Qing’s heart skipped a beat.
She thought in her heart to ignore him, but actually, she nodded uncontrollably.
Mu Li laughed out loud, and he forcefully turned her face towards him. Then he pinched her little nose and said, “How did you become so fond of being angry?”
“I’m not.” Lin Qing pouted unhappily and shook off his hand.
“Then give me a smile.” Mu Li raised his eyebrows as he pulled her closer and his face moved closer to hers.
Lin Qing didn’t dare to breathe heavily. She only pursed her lips and made a crying face at Mu Li.
But this crying face was somewhat alluring.
Seeing that she did not regret what she had done at all, Mu Li pulled her to make her fall into his arms in one go.
Lin Qing felt an earth-shattering change in front of her. When she saw the scene before her clearly again, she had already fallen on Mu Li’s legs. And she was looking up straight at him.
“If you don’t smile, I’ll have to use some tricks.” Mu Li threatened her leisurely.
At this moment, Lin Qing was like a bird in a cage. She had no alternative but to obediently give in.
Of course, she also sensed the dangerous breath that was floating around her.
“Mu Li…” After staring at Mu Li for quite a while, Lin Qing’s lips moved and she said softly, “I have something to tell you.”
“What is it?” Mu Li restrained some of his desiring intentions and thought that Lin Qing was going to give in.
“Come closer,” Lin Qing said softly, seemingly a little shy.
Mu Li leaned closer.
Then, it seemed in the blink of an eye, Lin Qing moved her face close to that of Mu Li’s and with a chirping sound—
She stamped a firm kiss on his face.
Then she quickly retreated, blinked her watery eyes and asked, “Can this be taken as a smile?”
Having been stolen a kiss, Mu Li did not change his expression. “No.”
A sense of disappointment flashed through Lin Qing’s eyes.
Mu Li used his fingers to rub her lips that had kissed him. And as his fingers moved, Lin Qing’s entire body trembled.
After a long time, Mu Li quietly added, “It will count only if you kiss me way I kissed you.”
Lin Qing’s petite body trembled again.
She really did not know how to do it. Kissing him in the cheek was already her limit.
However, under this situation, she was bound to be amused by Mu Li today.
Looking at her conflicted appearance and her small face that showed the expression of being at a loss what to do, Mu Li instantly felt interested.
A burst of spring wind swept by, and the air emitted the fragrance of grass.
A few strands of Lin Qing’s long hair floated in the wind and fell on Mu Li’s legs.
The way Mu Li looked directly into her eyes really made her a little anxious.
But…
She was also a little flipped.
Lin Qing seemed to understand something.
So, she made up her mind and leaned her face up to try to stick to his lips—
Plop!
A graceful arc swept past as a thin and small figure fell off the stone bridge.
Layers of spray splashed out from the stream.
Fortunately, this stone bridge was barely the height of a person, and fortunately, the stream that flowed here was not shallow.
When Lin Qing stood up from the stream, she was already soaked all over. She wiped the water off her face, then pulled her long skirt that was completely stuck to her body.
The way she looked with such a wet appearance was truly pitiful.
When Lin Qing fell down because she didn’t control her center of gravity, Mu Li couldn’t hug her even though his reaction was fast enough. He watched helplessly as Lin Qing fell into the water.
At this moment, his expression was a little gloomy. He had already walked quickly from the stone bridge to the side of the stream and reached out to save Lin Qing.
“Come up!” He was a little anxious, but his tone was very gentle.
Lin Qing lowered her head and looked at herself before placing her small hand on his palm and carefully stepping on the cobblestones to land on the shore.
The water was very cool. Even in the hot summer, visitors who came here would be amazed by the coolness.
A light wind blew past, and Lin Qing’s entire body immediately trembled due to the coldness. She shrunk into a ball with her arms tightly crossed.
The hem of her skirt was stuck to her legs, and the outline of her underwear could be vaguely seen, revealing her body shape in detail.
Mu Li frowned as he took off his coat and wrapped it around Lin Qing tightly.
“Mu Li…” Lin Qing called him, sounding a little intimidated. “My hands seem to be stuck.”
Both of Lin Qing’s arms were under the coat, and she felt very uncomfortable because her arms were crossed under Mu Li’s coat. She tried to move her arms, but they were wrapped around very tightly.
Mu Li had wrapped her so tightly that she could barely move.
But Mu Li ignored her. He put the thin shoes in his hand on the grass and squatted down.
“What are you going to…” Lin Qing was about to say something when she saw that Mu Li put the left shoe on her foot.
Because her entire body was chilly, Mu Li’s originally cold palm now felt like a small, warm stove that warmed Lin Qing all over her body.
Unknowingly, the corners of her lips curled up slightly.
At this time, Mu Li had already put both shoes on her and stood up.
He happened to see Lin Qing’s smile.
That smile was faint and warm. Lin Qing’s eyes narrowed slightly and her gaze fell on Mu Li.
“Thank you.” Lin Qing smiled sweetly.
Mu Li was a little lost.
He had never seen Lin Qing smile before, especially a smile like this coming from the bottom of her heart.
Lin Qing waved her hand in front of Mu Li. “Are you… in a daze?”
This was once in a hundred years, and Lin Qing felt it a rare scene to see.
Mu Li regained his senses and stared at the smile at Lin Qing’s mouth again. Her long hair naturally poured down and swept across her lips with the wind.
He raised his hand to brush off a few strands of hair at Lin Qing’s lips.
Lin Qing blinked.
There were people who passed by on the distant lawn.
Looking from afar, it seemed to be a young couple in love. The long-haired woman held the arm of the man beside her as they walked intimately across the lawn into the distance.
The man put his hand on the woman’s shoulder, and occasionally he would hug her tightly, lowering his head intimately to whisper in her ear.
The view of their backs somewhat resembled Mu Li and Lin Qing.
The scene was warm and wonderful.
Looking at the pair of smaller and smaller backs in the distance, Lin Qing was stunned. She was enveloped by Mu Li’s ink color coat and did not say anything.
Mu Li, of course, also noticed that the view of those backs was familiar.
A faint and hazy atmosphere lingered silently between them.
After a while, Lin Qing stretched out her hand from the coat and pulled at Mu Li’s shirt cuff. “Mu Li?”
Mu Li looked at her deeply.
“Let’s go home.” Lin Qing spoke, shaking his sleeve.
“Alright, let’s go home.” Mu Li’s eyes were filled with tenderness that he himself hadn’t discovered.
Lin Qing kept her head tilted to one side on the way home. She was deep in thought and was more focused than ever.
Mu Li turned his head to look at her several times, but he didn’t see her frontal face.
When they returned home, Lin Qing’s skirt was almost dry. After taking her clean clothes with her, she plunged into the bathroom.
Throughout this entire process, Lin Qing didn’t even look at Mu Li.
Mu Li was very depressed about this.
It was said that women’s hearts were hard to predict like the deep sea. And it seemed that Lin Qing, who had a different brain circuit from others, was no exception.
Loosening the two buttons at his collar, Mu Li stretched out and sat on the sofa. Then he turned on the TV.
However, as soon as he sat down, he heard a loud drumming noise from the direction of the bathroom.
Mu Li immediately stood up and continued to listen as he walked over, but he could not hear anything.
Lin Qing did not call him. Could it be that he had misjudged the direction?
Impossible.
His judgement had always been accurate.
Lin Qing hid behind the bathroom door and wrapped herself in the white bath towel from under her armpit. When Mu Li pushed open the bedroom door and called her, she answered in a low voice.
“Mu Li…” Lin Qing said grievously through the bathroom door. “There’s no hot water…”
“Are you hurt anywhere in your body?” Mu Li couldn’t help but frown. That noise a moment ago was really loud and couldn’t be ignored.
“I didn’t get hurt…” Lin Qing said again. “It was when I turned off the water, I knocked over the things on the side.”
It turned out that when Lin Qing turned on the water as usual and was about to take a comfortable hot shower, she was drenched in cold water from above her head. She was unprepared, so she hurriedly went to turn off the water as she retreated backwards. In the process she knocked over the things beside her.
Anyway, the things she knocked over weren’t anything expensive.
Even so, Mu Li was still worried. He knocked on the frosted glass door and said, “Come out.”
