Shi Enxi wasn''t asking his permission, she was only letting her husband know a part of what she planned. They needed time to be alone and hopefully, during the time when they are not together, they would find answers to the questions they were seeking.

    That afternoon, as they once again shared another kiss, this time, nothing stopped them from entwining their bodies. They have limited time left but they wanted to share whatever''s left with each other.

    The heat in the room rose up as m.o.a.ns and hard breathing were filled. Two n.a.k.e.d bodies were now seen on top of the bed, one over the other.

    The room was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere by the time they were finally tired.

    Lu Mello fell on her side. He was panting but was slowly catching his breath.

    Shi Enxi moved, snuggling against the warmth of his body. She closed her tired eyes and before she fell asleep, a soft whisper was heard from her. "I love you, Mello."

    Those words were enough proof that even if they were going to go their separate ways, Shi Enxi was going to come back and with that, he held on to her words.

    He pulled the blanket on top just to cover their bodies before he hugged her close to him. He closed his eyes as he placed a soft kiss on his wife''s forehead.

    "I love you too..."

    ...

    Later that afternoon, Shi Enxi woke up with her body sore but she managed to bring herself to the bathroom to take a shower.

    She felt her stomach grumbled, demanding food from her.

    While she was in the middle of taking a bath, the bathroom''s door went open, and hearing it, she turned to its way as she covered her c.h.e.s.t by reflex.

    Lu Mello took a step in, n.a.k.e.d. His well-toned body was enough to make any women drool and beg for him to take them but... Shi Enxi had already satisfied her d.e.s.i.r.es to have him. At least that was what she thought.

    He looked at his wife''s face before his eyes traveled to her slender body which was now filled with his marks.

    "Oh. It''s just you." She lowered her arms before she turned away and continued to massaged her scalp with her fingers.

    On the other hand, once again, Lu Mello was easily turned on by his wife. He approached her and took a step in the shower area before he reached forward and hugged her from behind. His hands were once again placed on her tummy. He was stroking the scar there fondly.

    "Darling, we already have enough s.e.x for today." She said with her eyes still close but the blush on her cheeks remained when she felt his hardened rod, pressing against her back, teasing her.

    "But I don''t think I had enough of it." He huskily whispered against her ear.

    "Come on, I''m hungry you know." She w.h.i.n.ed as she slightly turned her head just to glance at him.

    He smirked as he refuted, "I''m also hungry. Still hungry for my wife."

    "I''m serious." She said with a pout on her lips.

    "So am I." He replied.

    When she felt his hand travel to her womanhood, a m.o.a.n escaped from her lips upon feeling his finger inside her.

    She quickly placed her hands on top of his arms, clenching it. "M-Mello..." She breathed out.

    "One round." He whispered again in her ear.

    The way he said it I''ve her goosebumps and at the same time, it only made her yearn for him again.

    She finally gave in to the temptation he was giving her, "One round..."

    This time, Lu Mello kept his words and finished their session in the bathroom with one round. Shi Enxi was easily weakened and the complaints that her stomach was giving her only made it worse.

    After their bath, Shi Enxi was back to the now cleaned bed. The covers and everything was replaced with new ones by the housekeeper that her husband called before he entered the bathroom earlier.

    She was now lying down on the bed in her pajamas while hugging a pillow while she waited for the food that Lu Mello ordered for them. Not long, he came back with it.

    Since Shi Enxi didn''t want to leave the bed just yet, the food was brought in the bedroom and was placed on the small bed table.

    It was already dinner and city lights could be seen from the glass window in the room.

    "Slow down, the food will not run away." Lu Mello said with a small smile as he watched his wife devour even his share.

    It really was a good thing that he ordered a lot especially when he knew how much appetite his wife has when she was really starving.

    "Shut up." She scolded before she continued to eat the food in front of her.

    He reached out and was about to wipe the side of her lips with his thumb but his hand ended up being slapped away by her. "Don''t disturb me."

    "You have a few crisps over there." He pointed.

    "I don''t care." She wasn''t worried about maintaining her image anymore whenever she was with him.

    That was another good thing when they were together, she could be herself without worrying about him since he knew her the most.

    Although after saying those words, she stopped and looked at him with a smile instead. "Fine, clean it for me."

    He gave her a helpless look as once again, he reached out and wipe the side of her lips with his thumb.

    "You haven''t touched the food."

    "I''m not hungry."

    "Liar." She pouted. She was guilty of eating his share but there was still enough left. Instead of arguing with him about not eating, she began feeding him instead.

    At first, Lu Mello stared at her, giving her a ''what are you doing?'' kind of look.

    "They said that food becomes tastier if it''s fed. Here, I''m doing you a favor so be grateful." She chuckled.

    He smiled back at her and this time, he began eating the food that she was feeding him.
