YM778.TV Chapter 266 - For You!
His eyes followed her each and every movement. With a sigh, he shook his head at his ignorant wife and decided to make his presence known by himself. She was adding the carrots, cabbage, tomatoes, and other ingredients of the soup in the pot when two strong arms encircled around her waist and her shoulder felt the weight as Ye Jie planted his chin on it.
"Good morning, baby!" He kissed her cheek as he greeted her affectionately.
Xu Mey smiled radiantly and replied, "Good morning, Ah-Jie!"
Ye Jie didn’t let her go and followed her even when she turned towards the cabinets to find onion soup mix. She tried to push him off but he still stuck to her like glue.
Finally, in the last cabinet, she saw the box of onion soup mix at the top shelf. She tried to jump but Ye Jie’s arms restricted her. She slapped his arm and said, "Let me go, I need to get that."
Ye Jie groaned like a kid and made an adorable face. If he had stomped his foot, he would have exactly looked like a kid showing tantrums over being apart from his favorite teddy bear. But Ye Jie actually had the same feelings in him since his baby was not only his favorite but also, his only teddy bear.
"Ah-Jie!" Hearing the warning in her voice, Ye Jie reluctantly let her go. Xu Mey smiled smugly and lifted her arm to reach the box of soup mix. But apparently, the luck was on Ye Jie’s side. She tip-toed, jumped but still couldn’t even touch the box because of her height. She had a good height but whenever she looked at her husband, she felt short.
With a mournful look, she turned her face to look at Ye Jie who was smiling amusingly by himself with his arms crossed before his chest. It took a lot of effort to stifle his laugh seeing the way Xu Mey was jumping around like a bunny.
Xu Mey rubbed her nose adorably and with her index finger, pointed towards the box she was trying to reach. Silently asking him for help. Ye Jie chuckled as he tousled her hair and wrapping his arms around her waist again, he lifted her up.
Xu Mey happily picked up the box and Ye Jie planted her feet back on the ground. She tried to get out of his grasp but he tightened his arms making Xu Mey look at him with a frown. "Don’t think about running away before giving me my reward for helping you." Xu Mey rolled her eyes at him and tip-toed to kiss him on the lips before pulling away immediately.
"How mean!" Ye Jie grumbled since he felt she had used him and was abandoning him now but he still stuck close to her.
Holding a ladle in hand, Xu Mey stirred the soup in the pot before covering it. She turned her body to face him still stuck in his arms. Suddenly a strange thought came to her mind and lifting her head up she asked, "Ah-Jie, why are you so tall?"
Ye Jie didn’t know why this strange question came at such a sweet moment. "I thought girls like tall guys."
"Which girls are you talking about? And how many girls have you been hanging around?" Feeling the dangerous edge to her voice, Ye Jie cursed himself inwardly. But he also felt gleeful since she was being jealous again.
"Baby, I meant that isn’t me being tall helpful? Like I just helped you," Ye Jie tried to divert her attention and it worked at some level.
"Well, it is good," she remarked and added, "But I don’t like the fact that my head barely reaches your shoulder." She puffed out her cheeks like a balloon.
Ye Jie tapped her nose lightly, saying, "Silly, there is a reason for that."
"Huh? What is that?" She asked like a curious cat.
He grabbed the back of her head and placed it again his chest. "Now, tell me what do you hear?"
"I can hear your heartbeat obviously... By the way, your heartbeat is very strong and... soothing." She grinned while Ye Jie shook his head at how his baby was so easily forgetting the main point here.
"Exactly, that’s the reason why I’m taller than you." She knitted her brows skeptically. "Oho! Baby, because of our height difference, whenever you hug me, my heart gets the chance to whisper in your ear."
"What is it whispering?" She inquired gazing into his brown eyes.
Ye Jie lowered his head to touch her forehead with his own as he softly replied, "With every beat, it’s reminding you that it’s only beating for you."
Xu Mey’s heart skipped a beat making her realize how easy it was for her Ah-Jie to wrap her in the web of his sweet words. And yet, she gladly wanted to keep being tangled up. From the tip of her toes to the tip of her ears, she felt heat crawling up and she was blaming Ye Jie for that.
’One should not have such a damn sweet husband, there are chances of getting diabetes.’ She thought to herself.
Ye Jie caught her lips between his in a passionate kiss and all her earlier thoughts were thrown out the window and new thoughts took their place, ’But I don’t mind having this diabetes inducing husband.’ After this thought, she gladly encircled her arms around his waist and lifting his shirt a bit, her hand roamed inside freely as if it was their own territory.
Oh, wait! Our Xu Mey’s Ah-Jie was obviously her territory, how can people like us comment on that?
