Chapter 212 – 212 Don’t Push Your Luck

212 Don’t Push Your Luck

Lin Jiao’s heart indeed softened.

“We’ll talk about it next time.” She pulled the blanket up and leaned against his neck out of habit. “I want to sleep.”

“Kiss me again.”

“I kissed you a lot today.”

“Not enough.” After getting a kiss, Pei Zhi turned off the night light in satisfaction. “Good night.”

They fell asleep under each other’s warmth and woke up leisurely under the urging of the alarm clock.

The snow outside the window did not stop all night.

The trees on the street were covered in a layer of snow. When strong wind flew, the branches could not withstand the weight and snapped off, falling on the snow pile on the ground.

There were not many cars and pedestrians coming and going. The originally twenty-minute journey was shortened to ten minutes.

After registering in the dermatology department and doing the allergy screening, they took the report to the doctor.

“It’s indeed a rubber allergy.” After reading the report and Lin Jiao’s leg, the doctor said, “It’s not serious. It’ll go away in two days.”

“Can I use polyurethane candom?”

“Sure.” She said a few materials for the young couple to write down. “I suggest you try again in two days.”

Pei Zhi replied, “Thank you.”

He held Lin Jiao’s hand and went downstairs to get the medicine before walking to the parking lot in the snow.

The doctor’s words still lingered in his ears.

Pei Zhi leaned against the driver’s seat and tilted his head to look at the woman who was more charming than usual.

She cried last night.

He took pity on her and gave it to her in half an hour.

Now that he thought about it, he became restless. He could finally be intimate with her, but now he had to wait for two days before doing it again. It was too torturous for him.

“Why aren’t you driving?” Lin Jiao adjusted the seat and turned to face him, confusion flashing across her eyes.

Pei Zhi sighed. “I’m thinking about something.” He drove to the district near the city government. He told Lan Ying last night that he would go to see them.

“What is it?”

“About last night.”

Hearing that, Lin Jiao recalled what happened last night.

She avoided that scorching gaze and turned to look at the snow outside the window. “Watch the road carefully.”

“Yes wifey, I’ll listen to you.” Pei Zhi shook off the scenes in his mind to avoid torturing himself.

He stopped at a residential building and took out a few bags of things he had bought in Italy from the back seat. He held her waist and walked up the stairs.

Xue Jing opened the door. “Sister, Brother-in-law!”

He was wearing a black and white down jacket. The rabbit fur on his collar surrounded his round face, making him look extremely cute.

“Did Jing miss us?” Lin Jiao patted his head and held Pei Zhi’s hand as they walked to the living room.

“Yes!” He sat on the stool obediently and grinned sincerely. “I’ve missed you two for a long time.”

“How long is a long time?”

“It’s been especially long.”

Pei Zhi was amused by his gestures.

He handed him the red packet he had prepared in advance and asked, “Are you alone at home?”

“No.” Xue Jing put the red packet in his pocket and clapped his hands. “Mom is in the bathroom. The others went out to buy groceries.”

“The others?”

“Dad and Sister Shuyu.”

Only then did Pei Zhi remember who Sister Shuyu was.

He helped Xue Jing unwrap the gifts. After Lan Ying came out after washing up, they sat around the coffee table and chatted.

The sound of laughter and TV filled the living room.

Hearing the laughter, Xue Taiyao, who was outside the door, knew that Lin Jiao and Pei Zhi had arrived. He turned the lock and entered the apartment with Xue Shuyu with a smile.

The first impression Xue Shuyu gave people was that she was very quiet and reserved.

She rarely saw Lin Jiao and they did not have much in common. After chatting about their recent situation, she brought the ingredients into the kitchen.

“Xue Jing, turn down the volume!” Xue Taiyao roared from the kitchen, scaring Xue Jing into quickly taking the remote control and lowering the volume.

A rich fragrance gradually wafted out from the kitchen.

The dining table was filled with delicious food, making one drool just by looking at it.

The family sat at the table in a delightful mood until evening.

When the two of them returned to the Red Maple Forest, night fell.

Lin Jiao was lying on the sofa and scrolling through her phone when she accidentally saw the news of Xiao Heng Robot. She looked up and asked, “When is the release date of the second generation of Xiao Heng Robot?”

“In June.”

“Are you going to attend the press conference?”

“Yes.” Pei Zhi poured her a glass of warm water and fed her the medicine first. “Do you mind if I agree to be interviewed by the media?”

“Why would I mind?”

“They’ll ask about my relationship.”

“So be it.” Lin Jiao swallowed the pill and took two sips of water to suppress the bitterness. “Everyone in the company knows anyway.”

After receiving an answer that was not unexpected, his heart still skipped a beat. “Then I’ll get Qu Shao to make an appointment with them.”

“Alright.” She lowered her head and continued scrolling through her phone.

Pei Zhi whispered into her ear, “Wifey.”

“Yes?”

“I want to eat peaches.” He put down her phone and held her waist, twirling a strand of long hair with his fingertips.

“The peaches don’t ripen until June.”

“But I want to eat it now.”

“You can’t eat fruits that are out of season.” Lin Jiao wrapped her arms around his neck. Before she could coax him, her lips were kissed.

She vaguely heard a low groan.

His hoarse groans made her feel like she had fallen into a wine cellar and was drunk before drinking.

The light from the chandelier became even dimmer. She narrowed her eyes and pushed Pei Zhi’s shoulder away. “Don’t push your luck.”

“Why is kissing my wife pushing my luck?”

“You’re not allowed to kiss me anyway.”

Her angry tone made him chuckle.

Pei Zhi suppressed the sadness in his eyes and said, “It’s so sweet.”

Lin Jiao ignored him, but her heart was racing.

She leaned into Pei Zhi’s arms and spent two days peacefully. On the morning of the third day, she fell into his trap with the arrival of a packet Pei Zhi ordered online.

“Honey, don’t take a bath for too long.” A hoarse voice came from outside the door.

“I know.”

“Do you want cherries? I’ll wash them.”

Lin Jiao replied lazily.

She raised a leg and stepped out of the bathtub. She stood in front of the sink and wiped the steam off the mirror.

She looked up and saw a few mottled marks on her snow-white skin, looking like red plums on the snowy mountain.

She remembered the way he guided her to look at herself in the mirror as they joined together physically.

She looked away to calm her racing heart and slowly put on her pajamas.

“Honey.” Pei Zhi, who was standing outside the door, came over with a bowl of cherries. “I’ll feed you.”

His fingers brushed past her lips. Lin Jiao’s eyelashes fluttered as she bit the red fruit.

She chewed twice and said in a muffled voice, “Don’t think I’ll forgive you just because you did this.”
