CH 317

She didn’t even dare to look at the purple marks on her waist and chest. How much strength did he actually use? Didn’t he know that a little restraint goes a long way?

Fully dressed, Xiao Wang wiped her face with a towel and even combed her hair with a wooden comb.

Such a caring and adorable child; I should give him more kisses.

Xiaowang saw that his mother started laughing again. Except for the occasional twitching of the corners of her mouth, which was a bit strange, nothing else seemed to be amiss.

He said happily, “Mom got better, not sick anymore. Mom is awesome~”

He also imitated the way Lin Lan kissed him and kissed her on the cheek. Then, he touched her head and hugged her neck. 

“Good child, off you got to play. Mom is going to start cooking.”

When she placed her legs off of the kang to stand, she felt like she was being driven to do a few 100-meter sprints without warming up after a long period of inactivity. Her legs felt as if they were teeth falling out from biting into a grapefruit— they just didn’t feel like hers.

Cooking, washing clothes and tidying up the house were originally easy tasks, but today, Lin Lan found the chores mentally draining.

She cooked some food first, but when she was about to do the laundry, Han Qingsong strode in from the outside.

Why was he back before working hours ended? Subconsciously, Lin Lan wanted to find a place to hide.

Han Qingsong didn’t understand what she was doing, so he immediately stepped forward and hugged her, “Are you feeling better?”

At the beginning, he wanted to control himself last night so that he wouldn’t scare her. Nevertheless, he soon lost control. Whilst regretting being too intemperate, he did yearn for more. As a result, he messed up, guessing that he had probably hurt her.

She was once again afraid of him.

Lin Lan’s face was burning as she wondered if he could just stop talking. Wasn’t this a reminder of what happened last night? It was broad daylight, so could he just please pay attention to their surroundings?

Fortunately, Xiaowang had led Wangwang out to play, so he wasn’t at home.

She pretended that she didn’t know the meaning of his words, “I made some food and washed the clothes, why are you back at this time?”

“Someone from the Commune came to talk to me about something,” Han Qingsong grabbed her by the waist and hugged her, “I told our kids that you are sick from fatigue, so take a rest for two days.”

Lin Lan exclaimed, “Put me down quickly.”

Han Qingsong, “You’re not heavy.”

…Did I ask if I was heavy?

He placed her on the kang, propped his hands on her sides and leaned forward with his upper body almost touching her.

Lin Lan leaned back instinctively. His eyes were deep and gloomy, which made him  look very serious, but looking carefully, a vortex of desire was clearly burning in those orbs.

“Y-you…It’s broad daylight, so don’t try to act funny.”

Some children were more observant than others. She didn’t want to end up being caught in an awkward situation and having to explain the course of nature to her kids now.

Almost every pair of parents would inevitably be questioned about this matter by their children, but they must give a reasonable explanation despite being embarrassed. Otherwise, a lot of crazy imaginations were capable of forming from their little minds.

Han Qingsong suddenly smiled and pecked the corner of her lips with his own, “I can’t help but look at you.”

Lin Lan was so frightened that she immediately stepped back and kicked his chest. What a beast! Did he think that he was a kid that just found out about his body’s reactions?

“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid,” He grabbed her kicking foot and patted her calf comfortingly, “You can rest.”
