My Sloppy Husband Is Actually a Handsome Bigshot!-Chapter 162 - 159: Like, Two People 2
Chapter 162: Chapter 159: Like, Two People 2
Lin Zhenxin had most of her face buried in the soft pillow, with a faint indigo hue beneath her eyelashes.
As if he could never get enough, Li Yanan’s gaze never left her face for a moment.
His slender fingers slowly traced her delicate and soft skin.
There were still faint traces left by him...
Clearly, Li Yanan was very satisfied with this.
"Zhenxin..." he softly called her name.
Lin Zhenxin didn’t react at all; she hadn’t slept well for two days.
Even the cleanup after their passion was done by Li Yanan for her.
Her entire body, even down to her toes, felt soft—a sensation unknown to those who haven’t experienced it.
He reached out to playfully tease Lin Zhenxin’s chin.
The softness beneath his fingertips gave Li Yanan a sense of indescribable satisfaction.
He liked living quietly like this with her, without any worries from the past’s trivial matters.
Nor did he have to care about the Li Family or the Tu Family.
In her sleep, Lin Zhenxin seemed to feel Li Yanan’s actions, impatiently burying her face into the pillow.
Li Yanan couldn’t help but chuckle quietly.
Just then, a familiar phone ringtone sounded.
Li Yanan first glanced at Lin Zhenxin, then carefully got up and walked barefoot towards where his two phones were placed.
One of these phones was for use in Vietnam.
It had a local Vietnamese SIM card.
The other was for use in J City, and because it had a global roaming plan, even in Vietnam...
It could receive calls and messages.
Pressing a side button, the ringtone abruptly stopped.
Looking down, he saw an unknown number, the origin of the number...
Is it from abroad?
Li Yanan looked at the dynamic number and remained silent.
After a long while, the call automatically hung up, but shortly after, it started ringing again.
Tiresome.
Furrowing his cold brows, Li Yanan blocked the number on the fifth ring.
Instantly, the world fell silent.
His tall and steady figure was enveloped in indifference.
The feeling was too familiar.
So familiar that it disgusted Li Yanan...
The next morning.
Lin Zhenxin was awoken by the aroma of porridge wafting in.
She casually slipped on Li Yanan’s oversized shirt, which reached down to her thighs.
Groggily, she walked out of the bedroom, and sure enough, saw the man’s back in the kitchen.
She walked over and hugged his sleek waistline from behind.
"Smells so good, what is it?" Her voice was soft and sweet, still tinged with sleepiness.
"Flower crab porridge."
The flower crabs were bought by Li Yanan early in the morning at the market, freshly caught by fishermen from the sea.
Lin Zhenxin said nothing, burying her face against his back, clinging to that raised spine.
Ding dong... ding dong...
The doorbell rang.
Just as Lin Zhenxin was about to open the door, Li Yanan reached out and caught her.
"Go change clothes," Li Yanan said.
Only then did Lin Zhenxin realize she was still wearing his shirt, and beneath the shirt...
Was nothing at all.
She ran back to the room, completely unaware of Li Yanan’s deep gaze following her.
The thin shirt barely covered her perky little bottom.
Li Yanan turned down the heat, walked over, and opened the door.
It was Xiang Xiaokui, wearing a green dinosaur onesie.
Hugging a MacBook, she sniffed around non-stop, looking at him eagerly.
"Brother Li, did you make something delicious?"
"Come in," Li Yanan stepped aside, inviting Xiang Xiaokui in.
"Thank you, Brother Li!"
Xiang Xiaokui hopped in like a rabbit and obediently sat on the sofa with her laptop.
"Help me enhance the firewall and blacklist settings."
Li Yanan tossed the phone to Xiang Xiaokui, then went back to the kitchen.
When Lin Zhenxin, now changed, emerged from the bedroom, the first thing she saw was the little dinosaur.
"What are you doing?"
Lin Zhenxin curiously watched her, fingers swiftly tapping on the keyboard with data she couldn’t understand flashing on the screen.
"Upgrading," Xiang Xiaokui smiled cutely, her face still carrying a hint of childishness.
"Brother Li, save a portion for Uncle Jin, I’ll bring it to him!"
As if recalling something, Xiang Xiaokui hollered towards the kitchen.
"Uncle Jin never takes care of himself, he’s so clumsy!"
"You call Jin Muchi Uncle Jin, is he your elder?"
Remembering the strawberry milk in the fridge, Lin Zhenxin got up to fetch a bottle for Xiang Xiaokui.
Xiang Xiaokui first shook her head, then nodded.
"Uncle Jin was my dad’s friend. Before my dad died, he entrusted me to Uncle Jin, who raised me."
Lin Zhenxin never expected it to be like this.
"Sorry, I didn’t know..."
"You didn’t kill my dad, why apologize to me?"
Xiang Xiaokui tilted her head, looking at her in confusion, her innocent eyes free of any impurity.
Lin Zhenxin smiled.
She never imagined that Jin Muchi, that rough man, could raise her so purely and translucently.
As if untouched by the human world.
Just then, Lin Zhenxin’s skirt hem was lightly tugged.
Xiang Xiaokui bit her lower lip, showing a somewhat hesitant expression.
"What is it?" Lin Zhenxin asked.
"Brother Li told me not to, but can I secretly tell you?"
Xiang Xiaokui first glanced at the kitchen, then leaned close to Lin Zhenxin’s ear and whispered.
"The Li Family sent someone to kill Brother Li."
The smile on Lin Zhenxin’s lips froze instantly...
Li Yanan set aside three portions.
One for Xiang Xiaokui, one for Jin Muchi, and even had a portion sent to Jiang Dongting.
The flower crab porridge steamed, filling the room with the fresh and sweet aroma of seafood.
Both Li Yanan and Lin Zhenxin didn’t have large appetites, and in the end, Xiang Xiaokui simply took the pot away.
"Try it, is it good?"
Lin Zhenxin said nothing, just put the porridge into her mouth.
Instantly, the sweet and fresh taste of the crab porridge filled her taste buds, but Lin Zhenxin found it hard to swallow.
After a long silence from Lin Zhenxin, Li Yanan finally sensed something was wrong.
Since just now, she hadn’t lifted her head.
With a creak, Li Yanan stood up, the chair making a harsh noise against the floor.
"Lift your head." He quickly approached Lin Zhenxin’s side.
Lin Zhenxin shook her head, but in the next second, Li Yanan’s hand forcibly lifted it.
Her suddenly red eyes instantly came into Li Yanan’s view.
He suddenly frowned.
"What’s wrong?" Just now everything was fine, why suddenly...
Li Yanan’s hand was still by Lin Zhenxin’s cheek, but soon, tears slipped down, wetting his fingers.
As if scalded, Li Yanan’s fingertips burned.
"Don’t cry," Li Yanan was a bit at a loss, especially since he didn’t know why Lin Zhenxin was crying.
But Lin Zhenxin seemed to have opened the floodgate of tears, unable to stop.
For a while, Li Yanan appeared extremely clumsy.
Yet he suddenly leaned down, bringing his lips close to her long eyelashes, slowly sucking away her tears.
The salty taste spread on his tongue, a shared sense of sorrow between them.
"Why does she hate you?" Lin Zhenxin sobbed, her heart aching.
In an instant, Li Yanan understood.
An inexplicable warmth spread in his heart.
"It’s alright, don’t worry about me." He slipped his fingers into her soft long hair, gently stroking her scalp.
"My heart feels heavy."
Lin Zhenxin never thought Li Yingying would want his life!
"I know." Otherwise, she wouldn’t be crying so hard.
He reached out to pull her into his arms.
To be cared for, to be cherished, was something Li Yanan had never dared to imagine before.
But now, he had her.
Everything was different...
After the tears, Lin Zhenxin still finished that bowl of flower crab porridge.
Sweet and delectable, it was a flavor only Li Yanan could create.
As she pondered in her heart, she felt her hair being moved, only realizing afterwards that Li Yanan was combing her hair.
His slender fingers parted her locks, weaving them into a fishtail braid.
"You got sunburned." His hand brushed over a small patch of skin on the back of her neck.
The Vietnamese UV rays were too strong, and a little carelessness could lead to sunburn.
"Mm, don’t touch, it hurts." The sunburnt area had been stinging since last night.
"Your skin is too delicate." Li Yanan turned to the fridge, retrieving a tube of aloe gel he had prepared in advance.
The aloe gel, cold from the fridge, was squeezed out and spread on the sunburn, soothing the sting.
"Want to go play at the casino?"
He suddenly suggested, and Lin Zhenxin’s eyes widened in surprise, but she quickly calmed down.
"Someone outside wants your life." Nothing was more important than Li Yanan.
"It’s Jin Muchi’s place, very safe."
Lin Zhenxin’s eyes lit up again, nodding vigorously like a pecking chick.
Li Yanan smiled and ruffled her head, as if affectionately teasing a child...
Inside the casino.
It was Lin Zhenxin’s first time in such a place; her upbringing taught her that gambling was bad, but in this world, there were always places where the gambling industry was legalized, such as Macao.
In recent years, Vietnam was also developing its tourism and gambling industry, meaning it was closed to locals but open to foreigners.
In Vietnam’s casinos, two-thirds were secretly developed by Jin Muchi.
Li Yanan patiently explained to Lin Zhenxin.
"Second Sister-in-law, what would you like to play? Put it under my account." Suddenly, Jin Muchi’s voice interjected.
When the two turned to look, Jin Muchi stood there in a season’s Armani casual outfit, accompanied by Xiang Xiaokui.
Xiang Xiaokui had changed into a pastel yellow knee-length princess dress, still sucking on a lollipop.
If she weren’t with Jin Muchi, dressed like this, she wouldn’t have been able to enter this place.
"But I advise you, never gamble against this old fox." Jin Muchi specifically warned.
Lin Zhenxin instinctively looked at Li Yanan, not understanding why Jin Muchi would say that.
"Because Brother Li is the only one in recent years who could beat Uncle Jin at the gambling table."
Xiang Xiaokui said.
Lin Zhenxin never expected Li Yanan to be so skilled even in this?
"I know many things; I’ll tell you slowly in the future." Li Yanan smiled, seemingly not finding it a big deal.
Of course, Li Yanan wasn’t going to tell Lin Zhenxin...
He was also excellent at cheating!
That was something taught by his master during his time of underground boxing abroad.
