Chapter 10: Chapter 10 Pain!
She wanted to say, "I'll go back by myself in a bit," but before she could finish her sentence, Mu Tianye had already issued a domineering command.
"Walk with me."
The man's voice wasn't loud, yet it carried an authority that brooked no refusal. Feeling the strength of the hand that gripped her wrist, Ning Xiaofei didn't dare to argue.
Everyone knew him as "Mu Yanwang," and in the business world, those who crossed him only had a dead-end to face. If he turned on her there and then, her moment of false bravado would be exposed immediately. The Ji Family's treatment toward her would intensify, and they would disregard her even more.
"Grandfather, Tianye and I are leaving first."
Ning Xiaofei waved to the Ji Family patriarch and followed Mu Tianye toward the exit. Then, remembering her bag, she hurriedly stopped. Sensing her halt, Mu Tianye turned his face, displeased.
A chill ran down her spine under his gaze, and she hurriedly plastered on a smile.
"I forgot to take my bag."
"Get it for her!"
Without looking back, Mu Tianye raised his left hand, and Assistant Zhou immediately scurried back to get Ning Xiaofei's bag. He continued forward, pulling her in large strides toward the exit.
With long legs and a wide stride, Ning Xiaofei could only jog to keep up with him, still annoyed all the way.
Her hairy crabs, ah, the meat that was almost in her mouth had now flown away, and more than half was still left, a true waste of heavenly treasures.
Previously, when she was at the Ji Family, her uncle's family treated her terribly. But at least the old man was watching over her. Despite his mean-spiritedness, he still gave her some pocket money. However, ever since she got married, her aunt used the excuse that she was no longer part of the Ji Family to refuse to give her any spending money.
Although the Ji Family provided her with a large villa, no one gave her household expenses. Now she was merely interning at a TV station, earning a meager salary that could barely be considered an income. She was wholly living off her savings this month.
In order to survive in the future, she had been pinching pennies, eating in the company cafeteria, and surviving on instant noodles at home. To say nothing of hairy crabs, she had nearly forgotten what meat even tasted like.
As Mu Tianye dragged her into the elevator, she immediately raised her hand to bring the crab leg she had pinched to her mouth, at least to quench the urgent hunger in her stomach.
Just as her arm was halfway lifted, her wrist was seized by an iron-like hand, and the crab leg that was about to reach her mouth was once again taken away.
"You!" Instinctively she wanted to explode, but realizing who the man before her was, she swallowed back the words and instead coyly whined, "Husband, it hurts!"
Hearing her say "it hurts," the image of her pinned under him on the bed flashed before Mu Tianye's eyes again. His gaze swept over her heaving chest due to her jogging, then moved up to settle on her small face.
Lifting her chin with his hand, he commanded dominantly.
"Open your mouth!"
His voice held a command that instinctively made people obey, and Ning Xiaofei obediently opened her mouth, looking at him in astonishment. The handsome face before her eyes loomed larger and then what followed was an overwhelming kiss that almost made her suffocate.
