Chapter 484 A Good White Lotus Flower (5)_1
Xia Zheng curled his lips into a smile, "Alright, alright, you’re the boss, so what you say goes. But burying things in the ground is too tiring, and I wouldn’t want to soil my lady’s delicate hands. Let me do the labor."
As he spoke, he took her little fist, placed it close to his lips, and gently bit it, his tongue teasingly flicking against her skin, tickling Lin Yuan’s hand and eliciting a giggling laughter from her.
The two of them frolicked all the way back to the Fuman Building. As soon as Lin Yuan walked through the door, she asked Shopkeeper Liu about Jeng Ruyue’s condition. It was the first thing she always inquired about upon returning each day.
The second thing was where Xiao Linshuang was.
Shopkeeper Liu was still feeling a bit stuffy from Yaner’s earlier impertinence. Upon seeing their return, he mentioned that Jeng Ruyue had gone out shopping and scratched his head with a frown, "The Boss took Miss Xiaolin out too, but he didn’t say where to."
Lin Yuan knew that Lao Fan found it hard to sit still within the restaurant, and Xiao Linshuang was one to get restless easily. She had behaved quietly for the first few days, but now that Lin Yuan was not around, she had slipped out.
"Not even a word about it, it really makes one worry," Lin Yuan murmured.
Xia Zheng wasn’t worried at all; in fact, it was better that Lao Fan was absent, sparing Lin Yuan from being pestered by him to cook delicious food, which deprived the couple of any chance to be alone together.
But today was different; with Lao Fan gone and the little wolf cub out too, they could finally do whatever they pleased. Xia Zheng led Lin Yuan upstairs, his fingers playfully scratching the palm of her hand, causing her heart to itch and her cheeks to blush.
Seeing the couple’s sweet antics, Shopkeeper Liu’s mood lightened considerably. Just as he was about to return to his accounts, he suddenly remembered that Miss Su was in the elegant room on the second floor—they hadn’t had the chance to inform the Young Master yet!
