Beware the Appearing Cute Wife!

Tao Zhixiang’s face turned red.

Chu Mucheng actually gave her a necklace and... even put it on her himself.

She never imagined that a scene typical in movies or TV dramas would unfold in her own life.

In that moment, not feeling shocked was impossible; not feeling excitement and joy was also impossible!

Previously, Chu Mucheng had handed her the keys, saying the house was hers, and he had also given her a card, telling her she could spend the money as she pleased.

But at that time, all she felt was his disdain and humiliation.

This time... she felt his tenderness, and the happiness of being cherished and adored!

She ought to be overjoyed, but Tao Zhixiang’s eyes turned red.

Really... it’s different now!

This feeling now is being treasured by someone!

"What’s wrong, are you so moved you can’t stop yourself?" Chu Mucheng gently cupped her small face, his smile mischievous.

Tao Zhixiang didn’t speak, but tears started to fall.

Chu Mucheng: "..."

This woman’s tears really... came too quickly!

He was completely caught off guard!

"Don’t cry!"

He truly didn’t know how to make a woman happy.

But the more he said those words, the more fiercely Tao Zhixiang’s tears fell.

Chu Mucheng sighed and pulled her into his arms.

"This was actually meant to be your gift yesterday, but giving it now, it shouldn’t be... too late!"

"Not late!"

Tao Zhixiang choked up a bit.

"The necklace was for Valentine’s Day, and today is your birthday, so there’s no gift left to give... Hmm, how about I offer myself as your birthday gift, how’s that?"

As Chu Mucheng finished speaking, Tao Zhixiang burst into laughter.

But laughing and crying at the same time was really...

"Who wants you as a gift!"

She snorted and said, but her arms tightened around Chu Mucheng’s waist.

"Hey, really don’t want?"

Chu Mucheng feigned a sigh and looked aggrieved.

"Well, if you’re going to give a gift, shouldn’t there at least be a wrapping? And a red ribbon, then when it’s given, it should be unwrapped! What, do you want to try a dramatic reveal in front of me?"

The atmosphere tonight was great, and Tao Zhixiang had become playful, even joking harmlessly with Chu Mucheng.

Upon hearing this, Chu Mucheng couldn’t help but laugh.

"Want an outside wrapping, tied with a ribbon, and want to unwrap it? Hmm?"

His tone carried an indescribable lightness.

Tao Zhixiang chuckled and said, "Yeah, can you?"

Chu Mucheng reached out and lifted her chin.

"Of course. Look, I’m wearing a bathrobe now, with a belt tied around my waist. You can untie the belt first and then remove the bathrobe; isn’t that unwrapping?"

His voice was low and husky, each word sinking into Tao Zhixiang’s ears. She instantly grasped his meaning, and her face started to burn again.

"Lazy to bother with you!"

With that, Tao Zhixiang walked towards the bedroom, and Chu Mucheng followed right behind her, quickly catching up and pulling her onto the bed.

"You’ve had a long day; get some rest early, or tomorrow morning you’ll wake up as a national treasure!"

Saying this, Chu Mucheng reached out to hold her waist, drawing her closer into his embrace.

Tao Zhixiang: "..."

National treasure?

Haha, becoming anything... doesn’t really matter.

Actually, Chu Mucheng was tired too; he’s been out traveling these past few days, flying around incessantly, and worn out.

But now, holding her in his arms, a wave of fatigue washed over him.

Chu Mucheng closed his eyes, pressing a kiss on her forehead.

"Happy Birthday! And, goodnight!"
