CHAPTER 1118: CHAPTER 1118: MO ANNA’S PLEA FOR HELP

The morning light streamed through the window, shining on the bed. Xiao Zheng moved his cheek and opened his eyes, only to find Leng Ruobing looking at him with a faint smile.

"Awake, huh?"

Leng Ruobing said softly.

Swish.

Xiao Zheng’s hair stood on end. This wasn’t like Leng Ruobing; how come she was so gentle?

Leng Ruobing was supposed to be that aloof, cold beauty CEO, wasn’t she?

Seeing Xiao Zheng’s strange expression, Leng Ruobing got a bit angry inside. Having been with Xiao Zheng for so long, she naturally knew what he was thinking.

Her expression instantly turned cold, "No thinking nonsense!"

Only then did Xiao Zheng let out a sigh of relief and smiled, "This is the Leng Ruobing I’m familiar with." As he spoke, he reached out, pulled Leng Ruobing over, and hugged her.

Leng Ruobing let out a soft "ngh," and her face flushed instantly on both sides. Underneath that quilt, who knows what happened to make the beauty react this way.

"It’s early morning!" Leng Ruobing glared at Xiao Zheng, "Get up quickly, I still have to go to work."

Xiao Zheng said dejectedly, "You still have to go to work today?"

Leng Ruobing replied, "Of course."

As she spoke, she sat up, preparing to get out of bed, but as soon as she sat up, she yelped and immediately lay back down.

A sudden burst of spring beauty, indescribable.

Xiao Zheng chuckled slyly.

"You get up first and go out."

Leng Ruobing glared at Xiao Zheng and said.

"Alright, alright, I’ll listen to my wife."

Xiao Zheng decided not to tease her on this and obediently got dressed, got out of bed, and walked out.

Seeing Xiao Zheng leave, Leng Ruobing then lifted the quilt and put on her clothes.

Seeing a few red dots on the bed sheet, her face blushed again. Then, she went to Xiao Zheng’s drawer, took a pair of scissors, and cut out the part with the red dots, feeling guilty, and put it into her pocket.

After doing all this, she finally felt relieved, stood up, and walked out, but as soon as she took a step, her body trembled, almost falling.

Leng Ruobing furrowed her brows slightly, secretly blaming Xiao Zheng, "Didn’t know how to be gentle last night." Then she slowly walked out.

...

Xiao Zheng came out of the bathroom, ready to prepare breakfast, only to suddenly find a figure already in the kitchen.

"Wife?"

Xiao Zheng rubbed his eyes, a bit incredulous, this beauty CEO, while formidable in handling company affairs, had never exhibited any culinary skills.

"You’re out already?" Leng Ruobing turned around, seeing Xiao Zheng looking at her, smiled gently, "Go sit in the living room first, the food will be ready soon."

Xiao Zheng doubted, "You’re not going to make some dark cuisine, are you?"

Leng Ruobing: "..."

This guy, doesn’t know how to say nice things.

"Even if it’s dark cuisine, you have to eat all of it." Instantly, a queen’s aura exuded as Leng Ruobing said expressionlessly.

Xiao Zheng could only plead for mercy, smiling bitterly, "I was wrong, I was wrong, I will wait patiently."

Then he dashed to the living room like a startled rabbit and sat obediently.

In front of Leng Ruobing, Xiao Zheng displayed another side, a bit childish, like a regular twenty-something young man.

Soon, Leng Ruobing came out of the kitchen, placing two jade-like small bowls on a tray and bringing them to the table.

Xiao Zheng looked over to see, in the jade-like small bowls, were grains of crystal-clear porridge, a few pieces of tender green vegetables floating, and a small pinch of dark-glowing pickles, the entire presentation was very appetizing.

"Looks good." Xiao Zheng was a bit surprised.

"I specially learned how to make it." Leng Ruobing sat down, saying.

Xiao Zheng took the spoon, tasted a little, and immediately his eyes brightened. The plain porridge paired with pickles, adding a slight salinity to the milder flavors, made both tastes outstandingly intense, forming a gentle yet unignorable taste impact.

All in all, it was delicious!

Subsequently, Xiao Zheng drank the porridge in the small bowl in a few mouthfuls, put down the bowl, dabbed his mouth with a napkin, and said, "It’s just a bit too little."

Seeing her own porridge being voraciously consumed by Xiao Zheng, Leng Ruobing felt happy inside. However, Xiao Zheng drank it a bit too quickly, couldn’t help but tease him, "You’re just like Zhu Bajie."

She pushed her bowl towards Xiao Zheng with an affectionate look in her eyes, "You can have this bowl too, I don’t usually eat breakfast anyway."

Leng Ruobing’s habit was known to Xiao Zheng. If it were before, he wouldn’t agree, as skipping breakfast is bad for health.

But now it was different; Leng Ruobing had already cultivated True Qi, her physique enhanced, not eating breakfast was no issue, even if not eating for three days.

Therefore, Xiao Zheng unreservedly drank the porridge from Leng Ruobing’s bowl as well.

Watching this scene, Leng Ruobing felt a surge of happiness inside, even having a thought flash across her mind — staying home like this, being a housewife, wasn’t bad at all.

However, this thought was quickly suppressed.

Not to mention Xiao Zheng being such a person, needing not a submissive wife. Even she herself wasn’t willing to live that way.

She had her pursuits too. To depend on a man for existence, completely losing her own value, even if that man was her beloved, such a life would be no better than death.

"If he is a towering oak, then I will become the cottonwood beside him, standing beside the same kind of tree, sharing the cold tides, storms, and thunders, enjoying the mist and rainbows together."

Leng Ruobing silently said in her heart, "That is true love."

...

After breakfast, Leng Ruobing went to work, and Xiao Zheng stayed at Yunlan Villa, delving into the martial arts of the Medicine King Valley.

Just around noon, the watch he was wearing suddenly flashed a glaring red light, accompanied by vibrations, drawing attention.

Xiao Zheng’s expression changed dramatically!

"It’s Anna’s distress signal."

Previously, he had given Mo Anna a specially made watch by Sky Net, designed with the world’s top-notch technology, capable of transmitting messages and sending distress signals regardless of the environment or distance.

If Mo Anna had utilized this watch, it meant she was facing a severe threat.

Whoosh...

The entire room’s temperature suddenly plummeted, a killing aura soared into the sky, and in Xiao Zheng’s eyes, a terrifying killing intent that would even make a fierce beast tremble emerged.

"No matter who you are, dare to harm my woman, I’ll tear you to pieces!"

Xiao Zheng didn’t hesitate for a moment, lightly touched the ground with his toes, and rushed out; he stirred up a series of sonic booms, directly breaking the sound barrier!
