My Wife is a Goddess: 99 Secret Kisses

Ge Chen’s expression brightened up. He couldn’t help but ask, "What will you cook?"

Xue Lin asked him back, "What do you want me to cook? I can cook or bake anything as long as I have proper ingredients and recipe. I don’t memorize recipe since I can always look at it. It’s tiresome to memorize how to cook and how much spices to add. But don’t worry, I still do some basic cooking and it’s edible." She added, "But you have to chop the vegetables and meat. Chopping is the only reason I don’t usually cook."

Ge Chen couldn’t help but chuckle. "I don’t mind chopping vegetables. Can you cook Italian pasta?"

Xue Lin didn’t think he would want to eat pasta. She relaxed and replied, "Sure, it’s easy. How do you want me to cook?"

As the couple was talking, Louis got irritated. He did all the hard work whereas Ge Chen only ordered him around. How could he get the reward while Louis did all the work? That’s discrimination. He chugged the wine and asked, "And what about my reward? Can I come and eat-"

"Not this weekend. Later." Louis didn’t finish his question, Ge Chen mercilessly cut him off. It is the first time his wife will be cooking, why will he let his friend to taste his wife’s love and affection?

"..." It was hard to look at the expression of Louis anymore. ’I quit! I quit!’ He mumbled in his heart.

Later, Xue Lin drove the car and Ge Chen sat on the passenger’s seat. Xue Lin glanced at him few times and suddenly asked, "Say, are you mad that I offered Xiao Rong a place to stay?"

Ge Chen coolly denied. "Not at all. Our place is big. It won’t be crowded if we add a person. I hope he can keep the secret of our marriage. Aren’t you worried that he will spread your story in the school?"

Xue Lin said, "I will tell him to stay quiet. With his personality, he can do that. Also, he will stay in the servants’ quarter. With his study and workload, he won’t be able to go inside the forest often."

Soon they reached home and freshened up. Xue Lin didn’t feel hungry and went to the library. She went to the world of books and lost the track of time. When it was midnight, Ge Chen came to get her. "Don’t you feel tired?" he asked.

Xue Lin yawned. "Now that you mention it, I feel sleepy." She sleepily looked around and tried to locate a place where she could lay down and sleep. But it was a library. There were only bookshelves full of books and wooden ladders in every bookshelf.

"Should I carry you?" Ge Chen suggested.

"Nope, I can walk on my two feet." Xue Lin quickly came down from the ladder and took the book with her. When they went to the bedroom, Ge Chen suddenly mentioned, "You have generously given me a reward. But I forgot to give you anything despite you solving a huge problem for two families."

Xue Lin shook her head. "Don’t worry about the reward. I haven’t done anything. It’s you and your friend who dug out all the information and solved the case. You deserved the reward." She put the book on the bedside table and turned on the table lamp. The yellow light illuminated the room and looked amorous.

"When Mr. Tang blurted out the secret, he already lost. You could find rest after DNA test. I just saved you a day’s work. The victory is still yours. I must give you a reward." Ge Chen firmly said. He looked determined.

Xue Lin finally agreed. She exhaled sharply and said, "Fine, you can reward me but don’t waste money. I would rather want you to take me to the forest again."

Ge Chen smiled and said, "Sure, I won’t waste money because the gift I will give you is priceless."

"Oh really? What is it?" Xue Lin became curious.

Ge Chen suddenly leaned forward and gave her a light kiss on the left cheek. Afterward, he gazed at her passionately and asked, "Did you like my priceless reward?" Truly it was priceless. The only person he ever kissed after growing up was his wife. The last time he kissed a woman was his mother before she died. His lips were exclusively for Xue Lin. How could it not be priceless?

Xue Lin’s eyes were as round as a guava. She was looking at him in disbelief. She looked at him without moving an inch. Her body completely froze.

Ge Chen knows that he moved too fast but he doesn’t regret it. Kissing secretly is all fine but he wants to kiss her when she is conscious as well. He is being selfish and he knows it. But he wants to do it because it’s her, she is his wife. He reached out and stroked her head. "You can go back to sleep first. I have some things to do."

Then he turned around and left. Behind him, Xue Lin sat on the bed as her legs gave out. Her hand went up to touch her cheek where he kissed. Remembering the sensation of his soft, thin lips and warm breath, her cheeks turned bright red instantly. She was so shocked that she forgot to breathe. When her brain started to work, she screamed internally.

’Oh my god! Did he just kiss me? Ahh! He did! His lips touched me. Again!’ She got overly excited and her heart raced like a marathon. When she realized that she tried to control herself, ’Come down, Lin! This is just a KISS on the CHEEK! Why are you getting so worked up for? You are not a teenage girl.’ She took some deep breathes. ’But why is my heart is about to burst from a simple kiss? Did I leave my brain somewhere?’
