*smack*
"Oww!" Shen Yi rubbed the side of his face that was slapped by his wife . "What was that for?"
He cursed himself . Lu Xinyi might be angry because he suddenly kissed her out of the blue and in public . So much for self-control . He stared at her, slightly in a daze as she pulled away from him and stood up . He could still the taste of sweet mango on his lips .
Lu Xinyi stomped her feet and slapped his arm .
"You… look what have you done to my ice cream?! You made it fall on the ground!" She whined . Her eyes teary as she mourned for her precious ice cream .
That was so delicious . The ice cream, not the kiss!
*sobs*
Damn Shen Yi for kissing her .
It was only then she realized what had happened .
Did he kiss her? Her fingers touched her lips .
Yes . Indeed, he kissed her .
Her gaze flickered on his face . There was a slight blush on his cheeks as he tried to turn away from her scrutinizing gaze .
Shen Yi coughed awkwardly as he stood up, giving back her shoes to her hands .
"It's almost time for dinner . Come, let's eat and I'll replace that ice cream for you . " He turned his back on her and started walking ahead of her . Lu Xinyi could only stare on his back as he walked away .
"Aren't you going to come?" he asked when she stayed frozen on her place .
Lu Xinyi brushed some of her hair over her ear and bit her lip in nervousness . She knew she was blushing but wouldn't admit . Silently, she walked toward her husband and took his hands on hers . It was surprisingly warm and a little rough . She didn't say anything as they walked back to the hotel .
The route back to the hotel was full of restaurants and shops trying to sell their products . From food to souvenirs, to novelty items to precious artifacts, Lu Xinyi's eyes were filled with excitement as they look around . She was so enchanted and fascinated but she never asked Shen Yi to buy her anything .
What should have a twenty minutes walk turned into an hour, but they managed to find the closest restaurant on the hotel . It was a small family restaurant that had an outdoor seating with a stunning view of the park .
As if nothing had happened earlier, Lu Xinyi checked the menu with a smile . Shen Yi quirked a brow at her . Would there be a time that she will choose him instead of food?
He doubted . There were so many distractions that she couldn't see his interest in her . He might not have known her for long but he knew Lu Xinyi was a kind, spontaneous and energetic woman . Sometimes her energy was too much, it was giving him a headache . Fortunately, his dogs, no, her dogs were active enough to play with her to drain all of that energy .
Plus she was bubbly and smart . She can hold some interesting conversations with him and they could go on without him getting bored . She was remarkably beautiful in many ways .
Lu Xinyi happily ate her Beef Sirloin Steak while Shen Yi had his pasta .
"Is your ex-boyfriend still trying to reach you?"
Lu Xinyi froze, gave him a confused look before frowning . Gong Yijun was still trying to call her but she refused to pick up his calls .
"Yeah, I have no idea what he wants from me . I already made it clear that we were done . "
"He's an idiot . " Shen Yi said without really thinking what he had said before looking away . "He chose a cheap and fake gem over a diamond . "
Lu Xinyi smiled and went a little red around her ears .
"Hmm… but I think I need to change my phone number . I don't think he will stop calling my phone anytime soon . " she replied .
"Of course, I will ask Qiao He to order another set for you . For the meantime, block all his calls and messages and don't go to places where he could find you . "
Lu Xinyi didn't need to know yet but he already started his way to retrieve what she'd lost . Gong Yijun dared to take and rob her father's recipes? Then he should expect the price for his impertinence and betrayal to Lu Xinyi . As her husband, Shen Yi wouldn't let anyone get away easily after offending his wife .
