Beware the Appearing Cute Wife!

Chu Mucheng’s voice carried a faint, lazy laugh, and in his eyes there was an obvious hint of teasing.

Tao Zhixiang was a little annoyed.

"What do you mean if the kid’s like me then it’ll be a problem? Chu Mucheng, make yourself clear!"

As Tao Zhixiang spoke, she reached out to pinch Chu Mucheng’s ear.

Honestly she’d never been this bold before, but now, without even realizing it, her relationship with Chu Mucheng had already become that intimate. Intimate enough that she could do something like this and still be sure that Chu Mucheng wouldn’t get mad.

That feeling... was very subtle.

Chu Mucheng chuckled and said, "Mm, you can’t even understand something this simple that I’m saying. If our kid’s IQ ends up taking after you in the future, that’d really be worrying!"

Tao Zhixiang glared at him.

"Chu Mucheng, I’ve always been a top student at school, okay? I always ranked in the top few on exams, and you actually dare to laugh at my IQ?"

But Chu Mucheng just burst out laughing and pinched her cheek.

"So what if you ranked in the top few on exams? That only proves you’re a bookworm! All talk and no real skill! When it comes to anything else, you’re hopelessly dumb!"

Tao Zhixiang: "You’re the one who’s hopelessly dumb!"

This guy, would it kill him to say something nice? He just has to knock her down like this! He was seriously too annoying.

Thinking that, Tao Zhixiang felt tragically aggrieved all over again. Honestly... she didn’t even want to talk to him anymore.

"Let go of me, you’re seriously too annoying!"

As Tao Zhixiang spoke, she started struggling in his arms, trying to break free, but Chu Mucheng’s big hand was clamped around her, making it impossible for her to escape.

"I’m annoying, huh? Mm? And who was it just now begging me to love her, hmm? Who was it clinging to me and refusing to let go, hmm? Who was that? Now you’ve enjoyed yourself and eaten your fill, and suddenly I’m ’annoying’ now. Heh, you’re really a little ingrate who burns the bridge after crossing the river."

He breathed against her ear, his warm breath making her heartbeat go out of rhythm.

Tao Zhixiang: "..."

This bastard, seriously...

"You’re the ingrate!"

She shot back indignantly, and as she spoke she twisted her body again, trying to break free.

"I can’t be bothered with you!"

Chu Mucheng just laughed again.

"Tsk, women really are petty, huh! Honestly, how did I end up with a woman like you—dumb, stupid, petty, and not cute at all?"

Chu Mucheng’s voice was full of teasing, but when it fell into Tao Zhixiang’s ears, all those jokes somehow sounded different.

Mm, he said she was dumb, stupid, petty, and not cute at all...

Every word, to her, was quite a blow!

Thinking that, Tao Zhixiang’s mood gained another layer of gloom, as if something was stuck in her chest with no way out. It felt tight and stuffy and terribly uncomfortable!

Chu Mucheng really was... way too awful!

With that thought, Tao Zhixiang lifted her foot and kicked Chu Mucheng’s leg.

Once, twice. By the third kick, Chu Mucheng no longer let her keep at it.

He crossed his legs and trapped her foot between them.

Tao Zhixiang froze for a moment and tried to pull her foot back, only to realize it was already too late.

She used all her strength, but whenever she exerted force, Chu Mucheng did too, clamping her foot even tighter.

Tao Zhixiang tried three or four times and finally realized she’d lost.

"Chu Mucheng, let go of me!"

But Chu Mucheng brought his lips to her ear and said leisurely, "Mm, then beg me. Beg me, and I’ll let you go."
