Chapter 191 The Kiss
As soon as she spoke, Yun Muqing felt a numbing and comfortable sensation on her sole. She shivered and couldn’t help but moan out of pleasure.
Enjoying herself, she shut her eyes, quietly enjoying this aching yet comfortable rhythm. This lasted for a whole four to five minutes. Then, she took a long breath, and it was as if all the bones in her body were much lighter.
“Mmh, it’s very comfortable. D-Don’t stop. Harder,” said Yun Muqing softly with beads of sweat on her pretty face. As soon as she spoke, she suddenly realized the ambiguity of her words and she blushed again.
This as*hole is probably snickering to himself, ready to laugh at me, Yun Muqing thought. But, when she glanced at Chu Feng, she felt surprised and touched.
At that moment, Chu Feng was using both his hands to hold her dainty foot. Gently yet expertly, he massaged the acupuncture points of the leg. His strong face was especially serious as he concentrated and he did not shift his focus at all, let alone showing any sort of expressions that showed signs of dirty thoughts.
Yun Muqing suddenly felt guilty and touched because of this guy.
“The sole is a human body’s reflex arc. The acupuncture points on a person’s foot reflects the condition of the person’s internal organs. If I were to press your Taibai point [1], Zhongfeng point [2], and Xingjian point [3], you would feel a strong aching. This means that your spleen, stomach, and liver are not in good shape. Furthermore, there is too much dampness [4] inside your body.” Chu Feng frowned. With a critical tone, he questioned, “You are so young, so why is your body so weak? If this were to continue, you’ll be falling sick often when you become an old lady.”
“You are the one who’s the old lady,” Yun Muqing said shyly as she smiled. Next, she said lightly, “I had no choice. After Duo Duo was born, I was chased out of the Yun family. To make a living, I often worked overtime and pulled all-nighters. I worked as a waiter in cafes, ate cold food, and had been drenched by rain several times. After a while, I became like this.”
Chu Feng suddenly stopped; his heart was full of sorrow and guilt.
This silly woman, how did she spend the past five years? How much did she suffer?
“Chu Feng?” Yun Muqin was slightly stunned. She said shyly, “Sorry, I shouldn’t be telling you all these. Actually, I’m better now. All that was in the past.”
“It’s me who should apologize,” Chu Feng said with a low voice. “I should have joined you and Duo Duo earlier, then you wouldn’t have to suffer so much.”
Yun Muqing was suddenly stunned, and a layer of tears covered her eyes; she felt touched.
As Chu Feng massaged her, he said with a matter-of-fact tone, “Tomorrow, I’ll go to the Chinese medicine store to buy herbs that would remove dampness and boost your blood count. From today onward, you must massage and soak your feet, so that you can recover your health. Do you understand?”
“Mm hmm, I hear you.” Yun Muqing obediently nodded her head. A warm sensation rose starting from her toes, which spread into her heart; she felt very touched.
“Chu Feng, why? Why do you treat me so well?”
Chu Feng raised his head and said gently with a smile, “Because you are my wife.”
Yun Muqing blushed and she hurriedly rebutted, saying, “It’s fake. What we are now is all fake. We are just pretending to be husband and wife.”
“All you have to do is say the word, and the fake would become real at any moment,” Chu Feng said affectionately as he stood up and bent slightly, rubbing Yun Muqing’s shoulders.
They looked at each other. At this moment, it was as if they had a lot to say, and yet they didn’t need words…
Yun Muqing’s heart thumped violently. She felt conflicted yet touched. She slowly closed her eyes and raised her chin, her red lips burning. She was like a woman on her wedding night; a wife that was shy yet full of anticipation. She was playing hard to get, yet welcoming his advance at the same time.
Thump! Thump! Thump! Chu Feng could hear his own violent heartbeat. His throat felt dry and he took a deep breath. Suddenly, with rough movements, he squashed her delicate body under his and landed a passionate kiss on her red lips.
When love was deep, there was no need for an expression, and there was no way to block it.
Ring! At that critical moment, a ringtone pierced through the air like thunder on a clear day. Suddenly, the confused Yun Muqing returned to her senses. She widened her beautiful eyes and hurriedly pushed Chu Feng away. Bashful, she trotted away as she quickly left the room.
T-This… D*mn it.
[1] The Taibai point is an acupuncture point on the spleen meridian.
[2], [3] The Zhongfeng point and Xingjian point are acupuncture points on the liver meridian.
[4] Dampness refers to water retention in terms of Chinese Medicine. Health in Chinese medicine hinges on striking a balance between all the elements in a person’s body; a high proportion of water in the human body is a source of illness. The patient would feel bulky and sleepy all the time if he or she is ‘damp’.
