Chapter 862: WE SHOULD STOP
"I was worried. And you forgot to take your cell phone." Mu Liang solemnly said. He knew very well how Ru Xin felt for her. Not only that, he kidnapped her and hurt her. Though it was three years ago and Ru Xin helped them a lot, he couldn't stop worrying.
Mu Lan looked at him for a while before leaning close to him and giving a light kiss on his left cheek. "I forgot to take my cell phone. Sorry, hubby." She said cutely, using her charm.
"Laquan definitely got your trade." Mu Liang commented. Laquan was their third son who was called 'sly dog' by Carlo.
Carlo instantly said, "You are right about that." He totally agreed. He looked at Mu Lan. "Did you know what he did after you left? I was taking a nap outside. Taking the chance, he climbed over my body and started slapping my chest. You know I couldn't sleep well last night. And there he ruined my beauty nap. When I woke up and wanted to scold him, he gave me such a look that I couldn't say a word. He definitely got that sly side from you."
Mu Lan said, "He is God gifted. I didn't teach him that. You cannot blame it on me."
"You-" Carlo wanted to scold her but stopped.
Ru Xin changed the subject. "I'm leaving tonight. I'm not sure when I'll come back."
"Is it a mission?" Mu Liang asked.
"Yes." Ru Xin replied.
Antonio told Mu Lan, "Winter is coming but it's not that cold in here because we are in the middle of the East China Sea. But don't be careless. You need to wear warm clothes."
Mu Lan was already wearing a full-sleeved white t-shirt and black pants. She wasn't feeling cold at all. Still, she said, "I'll be careful."
Mu Liang looked at her. "Didn't I put a sweater on the bed? I told you to wear it after you come back."
Pedro said, "If you catch a cold, your sons will be affected since you still breastfeed them."
Mu Lan hung her head and repeated her words, "I will be careful."
Antonio looked outside. "It's too calm outside. It feels like something is going to happen."
"You mean something fun will happen." Mu Lan smiled.
The eyes of the big boys landed on her. Mu Liang asked, "Why do you think so?"
"Did you meet anyone when you went out today?" Pedro asked.
"…" Carlo already read her mind. He raised an eyebrow and kept quiet.
Antonio stood up. "I'll go for a swim." He meant that he was going to guard outside.
"Relax, nothing serious will happen." Mu Lan said in a relaxed manner. Then she looked at the little boys. She cheerfully said, "Rice balls, let's make some origami birds.
The second and third rice balls cheerfully said, "Oigami! Oigami!" They still can't pronounce 'r' properly. The eldest and the youngest stayed quiet but they were also excited. The mother and the sons started playing together. Mu Liang helped her.
Pedro and Antonio looked at Carlo for his opinion since they knew that Carlo read her mind. Carlo pacified their worries using telepathy saying, "Nothing serious."
That night, after dinner, Ru Xin left, Mu Lan made the children fall asleep with Mu Liang. Then they went back to their bedroom together. The kids slept in the next room. They went to bed.
Mu Liang hugged her from behind. "Don't you have something to say to me?"
"What do you mean?" Mu Lan casually asked him back not understanding the meaning behind his question.
He replied, "You said something funny is going to happen. Did you really meet anyone when you were out?"
Mu Lan smiled. She turned around to face him. She could see his face without the lights on. The windows were opened and faint light was coming from outside to illuminate the dark room. She said, "Hubby, I did show you my power once, right?
"You did." Mu Liang would never forget that day. To him, it was magical.
Mu Lan appeased him saying, "I have the power of the wind. As long as there is wind, I can do anything. If someone is coming to attack us, I will find out before they come within a hundred miles. And Antonio is here. As long as there is water, no one can stop him. What are you worried about? Leave everything to me."
Mu Liang couldn't let off the uneasy feeling in his heart. He embraced her tightly and planted a kiss on her head. Mu Lan moved a little upward and captured his lips. He responded to her with the same passion. The room temperature was rising when Mu Liang pushed her away. He breathed heavily and said in a husky voice, "We should stop here."
"Why?" Mu Lan was also breathless.
He took a deep breath to control his emotions. "I will lose my control."
"Then lose it." She kissed his throat.
Mu Liang groaned. He looked for excuses. When he found one, he said, "You will get pregnant again." He said it because they didn't bring the herbal medicine that was given by Lu Feng.
Mu Lan's eyes glinted. "Don't worry about it. I bought contraception from the shopping mall. The large size. It will work." Her naughty hands went inside his cotton pajama and roamed over his first chest.
"That won't do." He caught her mischievous hands firmly.
"It will do." She bit his collarbone and then licked it.
Mu Liang's eyes heated up. Those torching eyes looked at her with hunger. He moved away a bit and sighed. "I might hurt you down there." He finally admitted what was poking him. After what she had gone through, he was traumatized by it. As a result, he didn't become intimate with her after she gave birth to their four sons.
"But I'm healed. I was healed in a week." Mu Lan was surprised to know that he felt that way. It always made her happy that he cared for her this much. Now she understood why he didn't touch her even though she tried to flirt with him countless times.
