594. A Couple’s Holiday
“Finally free~”
In the couple’s room of the hot spring resort, Wen Yang was packing their bags when he suddenly heard excited cheers coming from the changing room.
He instinctively turned to look, only to see Ning Chu skipping over in her swimsuit, draped in a white bathrobe.
“Hubby!”
Ning Chu wrapped her arms around Wen Yang’s neck and leaped up, her long, fair legs expertly wrapping around his waist, resembling a koala clinging to a tree.
“Are you really that happy?”
Wen Yang’s eyes lit up with joy as he supported Ning Chu’s perky b*tt, looking down at the little succubus hanging off his chest.
“Yes! For the past few years, I’ve had Shuqin stuck in my face! Finally escaping her feels amazing!”
Once she started complaining, it was like a dam broke. Ning Chu rambled on, “When we got our marriage certificate, you promised to take me on a honeymoon! And look, we still haven’t gone.”
“Since we bought the house, I haven’t had a real vacation in at least four years! It’s just been cooking, cleaning, and budgeting! It’s hard even to hang out with Lily and the others.”
“Ah~ I really shouldn’t have had kids back then! Look how carefree Lily is — begging me to go shopping every day while I’m just swamped.”
“Work is even better; at least there I can talk to someone instead of dealing with the same old nagging!”
As a housewife, despite being free from work pressure, Ning Chu felt increasingly disconnected from society. Her social circle was as small as a pea, and every day was filled with mundane family chores. Physically it wasn’t exhausting, but emotionally, it was crushing.
But now, all that pent-up frustration was finally released.
Wen Yang gently ruffled her beautiful black hair, “How about this: once I finish up my work at the company, let’s travel abroad, okay?”
Yesterday, his wife had cut her hair into an adorable jellyfish style. It softened her mature look and, combined with her charming baby face, made her look like a girl in her twenties.
The bikini displayed her figure perfectly, most of her soft, tofu-like skin was exposed to the air, her slender waist like a willow branch, her slightly wider hips swaying with her tail, and let’s not forget those impressive mountains — all of it drew Wen Yang’s gaze like a magnet.
Even after having a kid, Ning Chu’s figure hadn’t lost its charm; on the contrary, her bust had developed beautifully, making her appear even more attractive.
“Aren’t you painting me a pretty picture again?”
Hanging off Wen Yang’s waist, Ning Chu looked up at him suspiciously.
“When have I ever painted a picture? I said we’d buy a house back in college, didn’t we?”
He walked straight to the little courtyard outside the room and sat with Ning Chu in the hot spring pool.
Ning Chu’s cheeks flushed a lovely pink from the steam, and she let out a comfortable sigh, her hands slipping from Wen Yang’s neck and lazily curling up in front of him, her chin submerged in the hot spring water.
Even though they had a bathtub at home, nothing compared to the relaxing experience of a natural hot spring.
She felt completely at ease~
But not long after, Ning Chu opened her eyes and anxiously asked, “Do you think Shuqin is crying at kindergarten, wanting to find me?”
“Didn’t you just say you couldn’t stand Shuqin?”
“Well, it’s been so long! She doesn’t like napping; she might get really noisy during lunch break…”
Leaning against Wen Yang’s shoulder, she mumbled with concern, “I don’t think I’ve ever been apart from Shuqin for this long; she’s definitely going to cause a fuss!”
After all these years, she wasn’t used to being away from her daughter. Her heart raced with anxiety, fearing something might go wrong.
“I heard many kindergartens serve terrible food and there are often news stories about teachers punishing kids.”
Wen Yang rubbed her head soothingly, “Let’s just enjoy our time out; don’t think about the crazy stuff.”
“Such an expensive kindergarten must be reliable for basic things, and you checked it out before, didn’t you?”
Ning Chu replied softly, deciding not to ruin this fun outing, and turned to nibble on Wen Yang’s bicep.
“What are you doing?!”
“Your muscles aren’t what they used to be; they don’t taste as good.”
Wen Yang grimaced and pushed her away, glancing at the bite mark left on his arm, rolling his eyes, “I’m super busy at work; who has time to hit the gym?”
“Well, can you handle it today?”
Ning Chu eyed her husband skeptically.
Back in the day, if they had free time, they could go at it two or three times a day, leaving her dizzy and unable to get out of bed for the entire day afterward.
But ever since having a baby, the frequency and intensity had definitely dropped, leaving her questioning if Wen Yang still had the prowess of a male lead.
After all, she was a succubus; she could handle it — it was just a matter of whether she’d get dizzy quickly or not.
“Are you trying to provoke me?”
As a man, he couldn’t stand being doubted in matters like this.
Seeing him so serious, Ning Chu shyly turned her head, mumbling, “Of course not~”
Later she planned to visit Lily’s place, hoping to pick up some skincare products, but she couldn’t let herself get so worn out that she could hardly walk home; that would be so embarrassing if Shuqin saw her like that!
Wen Yang’s hands began to wander, lightly nibbling on her earlobe.
“Stop that.” Ning Chu struggled slightly, trying to pry his hand off her waist.
“I told you to stop thinking about Shuqin. Are you seriously considering going back to kindergarten now?”
“No… just don’t touch my belly.”
Wen Yang’s hand froze momentarily; he could vaguely feel the faint stretch marks on Ning Chu’s abdomen.
Those were from when she was pregnant; though the color had faded and was hard to see with the n*ked eye, she could still feel them.
Thankfully, Ning Chu had good skin elasticity, so the stretch marks were few, but they had become a little thorn in her heart.
“It’s fine; I don’t mind,” Wen Yang suggested. “How about some cosmetic treatments? I heard lasers can help remove them?”
“Let’s skip that.”
Ning Chu shook her head, leaning back into Wen Yang’s embrace, enjoying the comfort of being wrapped in the hot spring.
However, her mind was a jumble. She thought they’d have a fun day together, but now she was struggling to feel any sultry impulses.
Wen Yang noticed her mood and moved his restless hands to her shoulders, massaging her delicate neck.
“Let’s head back early to pick up Shuqin.”
Ning Chu’s spirits lifted immediately, “Okay!”
“Always complaining, but once you’re apart, you wilt,” Wen Yang sighed dramatically. “Why not just let you two go live your lives? I’ll just stay behind with my face in the dirt.”
“Are you jealous of your own daughter?”
“When I’m not home, you sure don’t seem to miss me.”
Ning Chu turned back, seeing the playful, tender smile on his face, and huffed, “You’re such a faker~”
“Ouch~ My heart’s shattered! Only a kiss from my wife can heal it.”
“Why is a grown man acting all cutesy? So gross, I have goosebumps.”
She couldn’t help but laugh, but then she turned back, wrapping her arms around Wen Yang’s neck, her peach blossom eyes fixated on him.
A few minutes later, she shifted uneasily.
“Do I have to take the lead?”
