Chapter 45: I'll make it so that you enjoy doing this sort of thing

The sound of birds chirping outside the window lightly entered his ears. Qiao Yichen's long eyelashes fluttered twice before he gradually opened his eyes..

Ding Meng was still nestled in his embrace, and her eyes were still closed with exhaustion. The heavy curtains blocked out the morning sunshine making the room look rather dusky.

However, he could still distinguish Ding Meng's silhouette in the dark.

When Qiao Yichen thought of last night, he couldn't help but grin.

He lowered his head and sincerely laid a gentle kiss upon Ding Meng's eyelid.

After last night's activities, he had quickly changed the bed sheet. Then, he carried Ding Meng to the shower to take a bath together. Immediately after, they had fallen asleep.

Therefore, at this moment, the two were still completely naked.

The smooth feeling between their touching skin made Qiao Yichen's mind shake. Unconsciously, he began to randomly explore all of Ding Meng's body.

Probably because she had sensed a wandering hand on her body, Ding Meng reluctantly opened her eyes.

Lying on his side, Qiao Yichen smiled and greeted her good morning, "Wife, did I wake you?"

Ding Meng, "…"

She wanted to say something just now, but all that came out was a hoa.r.s.e whisper. Qiao Yichen's lips curved upwards.

Ding Meng gritted her teeth and glared at him, "Take your paws off."

"Ok." Qiao Yichen regretfully withdrew his hand and switched his position to hug her instead.

Ding Meng, "…"

"Qiao. Yi. Chen!" Ding Meng emphasized each word with extra menace.After saying each word, Ding Meng let off a bit of cold air.

Wearing a serious face, Qiao Yichen corrected her, "We're already in a relationship where we've done this and that. You should start calling me husband instead."

Ding Meng laughed sarcastically, "What do you mean by this and that? It was obviously just that your sperm swam up to your brain, okay!"

After pausing for a bit, Qiao Yichen looked at her, "Wife, did you really not feel like doing it?"

Ding Meng spoke with amazement, "You didn't realize?"

Qiao Yichen, "…"

He was silent for a moment but didn't let the matter go and asked, "Why didn't you want to do it?"

Ding Meng's brows raised a bit, "Why? Didn't you say before that when I grow up, I would definitely have a low libido?"

Qiao Yichen, "…"

He really wanted to travel back in time and give his past self two slaps.

Seeing how he held her without speaking and was currently dispiritedly hanging his head down like an abandoned stray dog, she became a little soft-hearted, "But you really like doing this right? Then we can do it."

When Qiao Yichen lifted his head to look at her, his eyes flickered with light, "Wife, I just knew that you loved me."

Ding Meng, "…"

She wanted to push away Qiao Yichen who was sticking too close to her. Who knew that Qiao Yichen would roll over on top of her again and say, "What if I want to do it right now?"

Ding Meng, "…"

What the h.e.l.l, that's enough! She gave him an inch and he was taking a mile!

"Stop messing around. We still have to go to work" Ding Meng felt as though she had suddenly begun raising a house pet.

Qiao Yichen looked at her silently. Then, he lowered his head and started to kiss her body.

Ding Meng felt like crying for him to see, "Why are you so pa.s.sionate about this kind of stuff?"

Qiao Yichen paused briefly to look up at her, "Because it feels really good."

Ding Meng smiled, "You think it feels really good?"

Qiao Yichen nodded and looked at her as if he was recalling something, "Extremely good. It feels like heaven."

Ding Meng, "…"

Qiao Yichen's level of shamelessness rose again. She felt her face start to heat up again.

Qiao Yichen was just about to continue his great undertaking when he suddenly frowned. He looked at her with a serious expression, "You don't agree?"

This was a matter of honor, and it had to be be taken seriously.

Under his extremely attentive stare, Ding Meng responded extra carefully, "Ah…it was really painful in the beginning, but later…"

Qiao Yichen's expression became even more serious. The first time would be rather uncomfortable, but when they were doing it, he had been especially careful. Also, in terms of technique… he felt that he had done pretty well.

"…it was much better…" Ding Meng felt that if she misspoke even a single word, the consequences would be very grave.

Qiao Yichen continued staring her with a serious expression. After a moment, he suddenly broke out into a smile, "That's fine. I'll make it so that you enjoy doing this sort of thing."

Ding Meng, "…"

Shameless, shameless, shameless!

Qiao Yichen's nose wrinkled and he took a deep sniff of Ding Meng's hair, "Wife, what kind of shampoo do you use? It smells so good."

"Eh, this? I just bought it." A while back, Moubao's overseas products went on sale. Since she had ten something dollars in gift cards and figured it would be a waste to not spend them, she had bought shampoo. The light camellia scent was really nice, and she liked it a lot herself.

Wait, this wasn't the time to be talking about this.

She pushed the person on top of her and knit her brows, "Get up first. We really need to get to work."

Qiao Yichen muttered to himself unhappily before kissing her on the lips one more time. He wasn't willing to get off her, "Wife, I love you."

Ding Meng let out a laugh and looked at him, "Can you take your love to the recording booth?"

Qiao Yichen paused for a bit before quickly blinking, "So it turns out that you like the recording booth? Even though it's a bit improper, since the wife likes it, then we can do it in the recording booth next time."

Ding Meng, "…"

She went ahead and rolled out from under the person who was still laying on top of her.

Ding Meng wrapped herself up in the blankets and began looking for her clothing on the floor . Inadvertently, she noticed a condom on the corner of the table. She looked back and smiled at Qiao Yichen, "Goudan-dan. Why was there a condom hidden under your pillow?"

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Qiao Yichen slipped on his pants and stood up, "I bought it yesterday afternoon after leaving the dance room."

"Ah, so this was actually planned out in advance."

Qiao Yichen keenly sensed that something was wrong. Right when he turned his head around, a pillow smacked his face, "Shameless! You d.a.m.n rogue!"

After uttering those words, Ding Meng picked up her clothes, threw them on in a rush, and ran out of Qiao Yichen's room.

Qiao Yichen held the pillow in his hands and wordlessly curved his lips upwards before going to the bathroom to wash up.

When Ding Meng returned to her room, she absentmindedly washed up as well. The computer on her desk was still on. Originally, she had planned to use it after the training last night so she hadn't turned it off. Who would have thought…

She walked over to turn the computer off, but then, as if she had thought of something, she opened up Moubao.

On the web page, Ding Meng found her purchase history for the shampoo she had recently bought and clicked on the review b.u.t.ton.

"This review was made after using the product. My husband said he really liked this scent so I'll be repurchasing this ^_^"

After submitting this review, she turned off the computer and changed her clothes.

Several hours later, the store's shopkeeper scrolled through the reviews as usual and randomly selected a few to give a reply to. By pure chance, she saw Ding Meng's review.

Shopkeeper, "…"

Why did public displays of affection make it even to her beloved reviews? Who would have thought one could be injured even when selling shampoo? This world was too cruel to single dogs.

T/N: Single dog is webslang used to jokingly mock yourself for being single~

Enduring the sourness she felt in her heart and the tears that were about to fall out of her eyes, she entered into the reply box, "Thank you for your kind support~ Our shampoos are all sourced in a regulated fashion. We guarantee that these are certified goods that are both high quality and inexpensive. We welcome you to return again in the future ^_^"

She felt so sorry for herself.

At that moment, Ding Meng was inside the dance room dancing with Gu Xin. The physical training from last night had made her entire body sore, but she couldn't do anything about it. She didn't want to be the cause of the delay of the project's progress.

In truth, after so many days of practice, she had already learned most of the moves. Now, it was just a matter of becoming more skilled and more coordinated.

While the instructor was shouting out the count, Gu Xin's movements suddenly stopped.

Ding Meng looked at him oddly and also stopped, "What's wrong?"

Gu Xin stared at her for a moment before turning back around, "It's nothing. Let's continue."

The instructor began counting off the beat once more, and Ding Meng didn't think much more about the matter. It was only when she was changing in the changing room and getting ready to leave when she noticed in the mirror that her neck was covered in little red hickeys.

She suddenly realized what Gu Xin was looking at.

She was simply embarra.s.sed to death. Qiao Yichen left these things on her body, and they were actually seen by other people!

She fished her phone out of her clothing and dialed a call to Qiao Yichen, "Qiao Yichen! Did you do this on purpose?"

QIao Yichen thought for a bit and acted like he didn't know what she was talking about, "What are you talking about?"

Red faced, Ding Meng roared, "Don't act stupid with me!" Quite a few of those hickeys were newly planted. It must have been that morning…that punk had definitely done it on purpose!

Qiao Yichen spoke, "I really don't know what you're talking about. Can you say it more clearly?"

He was fully aware that she was too embarra.s.sed to ask this question over the phone.

Sure enough, Ding Meng didn't have the nerve to ask. Instead, she spoke fiercely, "Just see how I deal with you when I get back!"

On the other end of the phone, Qiao Yichen couldn't help but laugh.

That night after ending work and returning home, she found Qiao Yichen cooking in the kitchen as usual. Ding Meng humphed twice and walked over, "Dandan."

Qiao Yichen turned his head around to look at her and asked while laughing, "Does my Queen have a command?"

Ding Meng narrowed her eyes and walked up, pointing to her neck, "Did you plant these on purpose?"

This time, Qiao Yichen readily admitted, "I did make those, but not deliberately."

"Eh…" Ding Meng spoke, unconvinced.

Qiao Yichen took two glances at her collar, "Why? Were they seen by others?"

Ding Meng's eyes narrowed again, "You're still saying that you didn't do this on purpose?" She was willing to bet that this punk had deliberately left behind those marks for Gu Xin to see.

Qiao Yichen spoke helplessly, "Some people have sharp eyes. I can't help that. Next time I'll be more careful."

Ding Meng smirked, "You still want there to be a next time?"

Qiao Yichen caught her by the waist and spoke with their lips nearly touching, "I've said before that I would get you to enjoy that sort of activity. The best method is to practice repeatedly."

Ding Meng, "…"

She struggled out of his hold and ran out of the kitchen.

When dinnertime came, Qiao Yichen seemed to recall that the two of them had important matters to attend to besides having s.e.x. "I've already started to write songs for your alb.u.m. I originally wanted to write all ten songs myself, but that would be rather slow. Therefore, the decision after consulting with Jiang Man is that I'll write five songs, and I'll find people to write the remaining five."

Ding Meng bit down on her chopsticks and nodded, "Okay, sounds good."

"After I finish writing a song, you can start recording it. I'll try to shorten the production period as much as possible."

"Okay, sounds good."

"Then, let's continue physical training tonight."

Ding Meng, "…"

He better not think that he could trick her into saying "okay, sounds good" again! Not to mention, she was once a top student! She wasn't that easily fooled!

Seeing that Ding Meng was staring at him, Qiao Yichen smiled at her, "I was talking about the usual physical training. Where did your mind wander off to?"

Hah hah.

Ding Meng shoveled in a mouthful of rice and spoke without even looking at him, "Yesterday's physical training was excessive. I'm requesting a day off to rest today.

Qiao Yichen's eyebrows jumped up. Considering the fact that yesterday night was their first time, he had only done it once. That much was already considered excessive? He grinned, "Don't even think about slacking off on physical training."

"Eh, but I may need a month to fully recover."

Qiao Yichen, "…"

After a short period of reflection, he responded seriously, "Okay. Training needs moderation. You should rest today." After he finished speaking, he added tacked on another condition, "Oh, later on, bring out those contracts we signed. Let's set them on fire."

Ding Meng, "…"
