Chapter 264 - 264 My Dear Wife
264 My Dear Wife
Huo Qi reached out and pinched Su Qing’s face. Just as Su Qing was about to hit him, he put it down. “You’re still pretending to be obedient after taking advantage of me! If it weren’t for you, I would have beat Su Qian up! Listen to what he’s saying. What do you mean by an old man like me isn’t worthy of your eighteen years old self? I am good-looking and have a good figure. I also like you so much. How can I not be comparable to those 20-year-old brats? Your fifth brother has no taste! I’m so angry! My wound hurts!”
Surprisingly, Su Qing didn’t find Huo Qi’s rant annoying and long-winded. In fact, she found it a little fun. She smiled faintly and replied, “You’re already old! It’s no wonder he said that about you.”
When Huo Qi heard this, the corners of his lips curled up slightly. He leaned towards Su Qing and said in a low voice, “You think I’m old too?”
Although his tone was questioning, he didn’t seem to need Su Qing’s answer. “You don’t understand. Only a mature man knows how to feel for his wife. Someone like me is just right.”
Su Qing smelled Huo Qi’s perfume scent and felt her heart skip a beat. She couldn’t deny that Huo Qi was indeed very charming. The lines on his face were exquisite, his nose was sculpted, and his eyebrows were sharp. He looked very cool. Only his narrow eyes looked a little menacing, but the color of his eyes was beautiful!
Huo Qi was nearly 1.9 meters tall, and even Su Qian’s superior figure was inferior to his. Most of the time, Su Qing had to look up to see him, but she liked looking into his beautiful eyes.
Su Qing chuckled and looked at Huo Qi speechlessly. She didn’t take a step back, and her expression didn’t change much.
Huo Qi looked at Su Qing’s gentle smile, as though a kitten had scratched his heart. He looked down at Su Qing’s soft lips and said something restrained before slowly taking a step back.
“It’s your birthday next month. What gift do you want?”
When Su Qing heard Huo Qi’s question, she suddenly had an intuition. She felt that there was more to what Huo Qi wanted to ask. Perhaps there was another meaning.
Su Qing couldn’t completely understand Huo Qi’s frustration at this moment. After taking a deep breath, Mr. Huo suppressed his emotions and bowed. He thought that it wasn’t a good thing for his wife to be too young. Qingqing will only turn eighteen next month!
Mr. Huo, the “evil” and “vicious” triad overlord, was a rare gentleman! To him, he could be impudent if he didn’t like someone, because he could settle the score with that person. However, he needed to restrain himself if he liked her. After all, she was the person he loved the most. It wasn’t too much to treat her well. This might not be a noble and upright value, but it was the most realistic thing.
Su Qing thought for a moment and shook her head. “No.”
Huo Qi raised his eyebrows and smiled. He asked in confusion, “How can there be none? This is your coming-of-age ceremony. Your parents will probably hold a big one for you, right? I’ll support you then.”
Huo Qi pretended to joke. On the other hand, Su Qing nodded without hesitation and replied seriously, “Alright, I heard from Master that you have to invite many friends for your birthday. In the past, only Mu Zi, Yuan Yang, and the others were invited. You should come this time too!”
Huo Qi looked into Su Qing’s sincere and honest eyes and couldn’t help but smile dotingly. He said gently, “Alright, I’ll definitely prepare a very different coming-of-age ceremony for you.”
Su Qing felt the autumn breeze on her forehead and suddenly remembered that Huo Qi had mentioned the pain on his wound a few times today. She asked calmly, “Is the wound on your back not healed yet? I have some good medicine with me. I’ll get someone to send some to you tomorrow.”
Huo Qi felt that Su Qing was especially obedient and pretty tonight. It was worth it to be scolded by Su Qian!
The smile on his lips never faded. When he heard this, he asked dotingly, “Why are you so concerned about me? You even want to send me medicine?”
“Haven’t you been nagging about the pain?”
Su Qing’s gaze was too serious and honest, so Huo Qi couldn’t tell her directly that he just wanted to lie to her to gain some sympathy.
Huo Qi nodded and said in a low and gentle voice, “Thank you, my dear wife.”
Su Qing pretended to glare at him and looked at the time. She reminded him calmly, “Hurry up and leave! When my fifth brother comes out later, I don’t want to see the two of you arguing.”
