Chapter 156: Muyang can be shy
Chi Lian came out of the basement as if she had been down there the whole time.
"Mother," she called out, "I am hungry." She complained as she greedily made her way to the kitchen from where the tantalizing smell of food and spices was coming.
She found her mother stirring something in a pan over low heat. She went over and hugged her from behind. Breathing in that familiar vanilla scent of her soap, she could not help but feel grateful for her presence in her current life. Hearing about the plight of Kiki and her siblings had not been great. She could only imagine the misery they had endured of having hope for a happy loving family ripped out from beneath their feet like that.
"Mother, your little baby is hungry." She wheedled.
"So you know how to find your way out of that basement at last." Mama Chi replied sarcastically. "I thought you would lock yourself in there forever."
"Mom," she rubbed her face against Mama Chi’s back, "How can I stay in there when my mother promised to cook my favorite food."
"Huh, so you came for the food." Her mother said amusedly.
"Mmm, mom." She said childishly.
"Huh, this ridiculous girl, you should go to the living room, Muyang has been waiting for you a while now."
She loosened her hold on her mother’s waist immediately and looked at the closed door leading out of the kitchen as if she could somehow see through it with x-ray vision. "Mom, when did Muyang get here? Did he come with Mei-Mei?"
"Yes, she has also been looking for you. When I told them that you were in the basement they stood at the door for around ten minutes waiting for you to open for them. You should have seen them; they looked so pitiful when you didn’t open it, like a pair of abandoned puppies." Mama giggled.
After hearing her mother describe the scene like that, Chi Lian felt partially guilty for making them wait for her like that. She quickly made her way to the living room to find her two babies.
"Mummy." Mei-Mei screamed as soon as she saw her.
"Baby." She run and hugged her. "Mummy has missed you so much." She said happily. She tightly embraced her and sniffed her. She had really missed that sweet baby smell of milk and powder.
"Did you miss mummy?" she asked her little girl.
All she got in response was a loud giggle and a slobbery kiss on her cheek. "Oh, who taught my baby how to kiss?" she asked playfully and proceeded to lay a handful of loud sloppy kisses on Mei-Mei’s cheeks.
She joined Muyang on the sofa after playing around for a while. "Hey." She greeted him softly.
"Hey, where have you been?" he asked as he pulled her into a one sided hug. "I missed you; you didn’t even send one text all day."
"Uhm, it was a busy day." She explained.
She could feel his eyes roaming over her body carefully. What was he looking for? She wondered.
"Is this what you have been wearing all day?" he asked randomly.
"Yes, I haven’t had the chance to shower and change yet. Why? She sniffed herself, "Do I stink?"
"No, you just look good." He said hurriedly. "How was your day?"
"Long," she complained, "So very long." She leaned into his body more. "And tomorrow is going to be longer, we are officially moving into the new building. There will be a lot to do. My feet already ache from all the running around I imagine I am going to do."
"Speaking of feet, come with me, I got you a present." He pulled her to her feet.
The nanny came and distracted Mei-Mei with a toy while the two adults left the house. Muyang led her to his car which was parked under a large cypress tree. As the wind blew, the old branches of the tree swayed unwillingly and the leaves rustled.
The driver who was leaning against the tree and smoking was dismissed by Muyang so that the two of them could have some privacy. He pulled her inside the car and covered her with his jacket because he had noticed that she was shivering when the wind brushed against her earlier.
Wrapping the warm jacket around herself, she looked at him and asked, "What is this surprise you have for me?"
He reached over on his end of the car and brought out a box.
"Here." He said and handed it to her. His voice had a nervous quality to it and the tips of his ears were red.
’Is he shy?’ Chi Lian asked herself. Muyang was the king of self-confidence usually. In fact his self-confidence always had an annoying quality of arrogance to it. So why was he nervous?
She smiled and opened the box. Her eyes were met by the most beautiful pair of white pearl studded heels.
"Muyang." She gasped. "They are beautiful." She whispered as her hands touched the shoes.
"Do you like them?" he asked hopefully. It seemed like he had personally picked this gift for her. It would explain his nervousness.
"Of course I like them." She replied instantly. "I don’t just like them, I love them, look at them they are beautiful."
He cleared his throat and said, "Good." That arrogant tone in his voice returned confidently once more.
It may have been dark outside but she could still make out the slight reddish blush on his cheeks. So Muyang can be shy, she thought and chuckled beneath her breath. She wondered what else she could do to tease him some more. He really was adorable like this, when he was nervous. It was kind of sweet.
" You should try them on." He suggested.
"Here," she presented her pretty feet to him. "Why don’t you help me?" she teased.
She thought he would laugh it off but he surprised by holding on to her feet. "Why don’t you just say you want me touch your feet?" he teased her back.
He lightly touched her feet and tickled them playfully. He even massaged them a bit. The little massage actually felt pleasant that her feet relaxed and she leaned back into the seat.
"Hmph, you seem to be enjoying my touche." He said with a smirk.
"Pssh, who wants you touch them?" she mumbled. Her mouth was saying one thing but her feet stayed in the same place, in his laps, on his expensive suit, being expertly massaged.
If anybody else had seen this scene, their jaws would drop to the floor. Jun Muyang who hated shaking the hands of others was touching someone else’s feet and he was smiling while he did it.
"Is this the only part of your body that’s sore?" he asked softly.
"No, my shoulders too." Her mouth answered before her brain could stop it.
