Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1282: 1281 You have a good figure and are attractive

An Lin remembered what Wen Ran had said earlier, as well as the subtle ambiguity laced with mystery in her tone. So, this was the gift Ranran had mentioned.

Sleepwear.

She cursed, “Ranran, you bad woman.”

Before coming over, Wen Ran told her there was no need to bring clothes, as they were provided; indeed, she hadn’t brought any.

Of course, apart from sleepwear, all the clothes for daytime wear were normal.

An Lin hesitated, then picked up the most conservative nightgown of the bunch.

After all, she hadn’t bought it, and besides, Qin Mu might not come over. Subconsciously, An Lin overlooked the fact that Qin Mu’s clothes were in the room, or perhaps she also hoped he would see her in it.

Gripping the sleepwear, she went to take a shower.

After her shower, dressed in the sleepwear, she stood in front of the mirror, her cheeks reddening unconsciously as she looked at her reflection.

Admiring herself for a while, An Lin was hesitating whether to call Qin Mu when there was a sudden knock at the door.

Her hand motioned towards her phone, but her heartbeat missed a couple of beats at the sound of the knocking.

“Who is it?”

“It’s me.”

Outside the door was Qin Mu’s voice, deep and magnetic.

An Lin took a deep breath, walked over, and opened the door. On the other side, Qin Mu’s expression flickered with surprise when his gaze fell on An Lin inside. His eyes momentarily deepened.

“This sleepwear?”

His brow furrowed slightly as he entered the room and closed the door behind him.

His gaze lingered on her, sizing her up from head to toe.

He quickly realized that closing the door was a mistake.

With Qin Mu staring at her like that, An Lin’s already blushed cheeks turned an even deeper red, as if they might start to bleed.

Despite mentally preparing before putting on the sleepwear, in the face of Qin Mu, she still felt awkward and fumbled for words, embarrassingly explaining, “I didn’t know the sleepwear Ranran bought was like this.”

“Hmm, you have a good figure, it looks nice on you.”

Qin Mu’s voice softened, the tone slightly husky.

“So, what brings you here?”

An Lin forced a smile and asked to change the subject.

Qin Mu’s gaze lingered on her chest for half a second: “Mo Xiuchen mentioned that my clothes are in this room.”

“Hmm.”

An Lin dared not get too close to Qin Mu.

She felt that his gaze was different from usual.

Therefore, she moved slower.

But she soon regretted it.

Because Qin Mu opened the wrong wardrobe, she had no time to inform him or stop him, and just watched helplessly as Qin Mu opened her wardrobe.

Then, quite fortuitously, she witnessed Qin Mu’s second surprise of the evening.

After all, men have thicker skins. Although Qin Mu did not harbor romantic feelings for her, he was determined to spend his life with her and had promised to try hard to like her.

So, he wasn’t averse to doing anything with her.

Qin Mu’s gaze swept over the sleepwear, then he reached out, took one piece, and lifted it out.

“I forgot to tell you, these clothes in the wardrobe are mine.” An Lin’s face burned up when she saw the piece of clothing Qin Mu had picked up.

She ran over, trying to snatch it back.

Qin Mu narrowed his eyes and suddenly raised his hand, dodging her attempt, a mysterious smile playing on his lips: “An Lin, Ranran meant well. Since we’re married, indeed we can’t keep sleeping in separate rooms.”

“Ah?”

An Lin blinked in confusion.

Qin Mu lowered his gaze, looked at the sleepwear in his hand, and then back at her: “All of these are nice.”

Qin Mu put the sleepwear back in the wardrobe and opened another cupboard to take his own clothes, then turned towards the bathroom to shower.

“…”

To avoid spending time with Gu Kai and to escape from being pressured by Tongtong to share her bed, Bai Yiyi took a long shower.

Until there was a knock at the bathroom door and Gu Kai’s voice penetrated through, “Bai Yiyi, if you’re still alive in there, make a peep.”

Bai Yiyi’s brow furrowed, responding unhappily, “Of course, I’m alive. Has Tongtong fallen asleep?”

“Tongtong’s asleep.”

Outside the door, Gu Kai snorted coldly and added, “Don’t dawdle in there. Hurry up and come out; I’m going back to my room to sleep.”

“I got it, you can go.” Bai Yiyi finished speaking, turned off the water, and perked up her ears to listen for any movement outside.

She didn’t hear footsteps, which meant Gu Kai hadn’t left immediately.

After a moment, just as Bai Yiyi was about to speak up, she heard Gu Kai’s retreating footsteps.

She came out dressed in her sleepwear, and by then, there was no sign of Gu Kai in the room. Bai Yiyi glanced at the door, pursed her lips, went to the bed, and covered Tongtong, who had kicked off her blanket.

In the nursery, Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran had finally gotten their three little treasures to sleep, and they returned to the master bedroom, hands interlocked.

“Xiuchen, call my brother again and ask how things are on his end.”

Having entered the master bedroom, Wen Ran immediately expressed concern.

That afternoon, when they had returned from Orange Grove, her brother Wen Jin made a call, said only a few words, and hung up.

Mo Xiuchen, aware of her worries about Wen Jin and the pharmaceutical factory, nodded, his voice gentle, “You go shower, I’ll call Ah Jin and ask him.”

“Thank you, hubby.” Wen Ran responded with a playful smile, tiptoed, kissed Mo Xiuchen on his tilted face, and ran into the bathroom.

Mo Xiuchen chuckled quietly, his eyes tenderly following Wen Ran into the bathroom before she closed the door. Only then did he sit down on the sofa and dialed Wen Jin’s number.
