“Come, open your mouth.”
Mu Yazhe raised his spoon.
“Brother-in-law, can I do a take out if I can’t finish this?” He took a look at the ice cream in Mu Yazhe’s hand and burped. He said with a contorted smile, “I’m almost full.”
Mu Yazhe replied nonchalantly, “If you don’t finish it, you’ll have to bear the consequences.”
Hua Jin’s face creased with a frown. On the verge of tears, he asked, “What sort of consequences?”
He replied haughtily, “Hmph. What do you think?”
“…Alright, I’ll finish it.” Hua Jin looked like he was ready to die.
…
What would it be like to eat two tubs plus two cartons of Baxy?
Two words: pure torture.
Feeling lightheaded, Hua Jin stumbled towards his car and got in. Looking ahead, he watched Mu Yazhe bundle Yun Shishi up into his personal car.
He carefully buckled her seatbelt, got into the driver’s seat, started the car, and drove off.
Hua Jin could bear it no longer. He clutched his stomach, his face ashen.
What the hell was this?!
This man was simply the world’s greatest wife slave.
Seriously!
It was in the middle of the night and instead of sleeping, she came to torment him!
How did he end up being the one suffering ?
He was innocent!
…
In the car, the anxious Yun Shishi clutched her seatbelt and gulped nervously.
“Hubby…”
He raised a brow. “Yes?”
“What did you do to… Hua Jin…” she asked worriedly. “He sounded like he was in pain. How much ice cream did you make him eat? ”
Mu Yazhe replied, “He ate it all.”
“How much is that exactly?”
“Two tubs and two cartons,” the man said.
A chill ran down her spine.
It didn’t take much imagination to know it would have felt terrible eating that much ice cream.
Suddenly, her obsession with ice cream faded. She even felt a little nauseous.
Now that she was feeling nauseous at the thought of ice cream, he had achieved his goal.
He asked, “Do you still feel like having some ice cream?”
She hurriedly shook her head. “No, I don’t…”
Never again… sob…
Mu Yazhe suddenly reached out and held her hand tightly.
Yun Shishi’s heart warmed and held his hand back.
Perhaps it was because he had been holding the ice cream tub for a long time, but his hands were slightly cold.
He did not say anything, but it was this small detail that made her understand his unease and heartache.
He was a reserved man who kept everything in his heart.
Perhaps he cared too much.
If one cares too much about something, one becomes afraid of losing it.
Hence, his caution was only so he could better protect her.
“I’ll behave myself from now on,” she whispered.
“Yes. That’s good.”
“But…”
Yun Shishi changed the topic. “You fed him so much ice cream. Will he be okay?”
Mu Yazhe kept silent.
She continued nervously, “I suppose he’ll end up getting diarrhea?”
…
Hua Jin was on the brink of falling apart as he walked out of the bathroom.
Dragging his long, numb legs as he stumbled out using the wall as support, he made his way with difficulty into the living room. It was already dawn.
Mu Yazhe walked out of the dining room with a glass of warm water for him. “Drink it.”
Hua Jin took the water and leaned against the wall with a look of resentment.
“I think I’m about to collapse!”
Mu Yazhe raised his brow. “Diarrhea?”
“Yeah, sort of.”
Mu Yazhe went into to his bedroom and returned with a box of medicine for him. “Eat this.”
Hua Jin was stunned for a few seconds before he accepted the medicine box gratefully. “Thank you, Brother-in-law.”
