CHAPTER 871: CHAPTER 873: THE GODDESS MU WHO WANTS TO INTERFERE IN HER HUSBAND’S PRIVATE LIFE

Shortly past six in the evening, at the five-star hotel where Mu Shanshan was staying.

Presidential Suite.

Lin Fei, rushing back from the luxury yacht belonging to Xia Yutong, stood facing Mu Shanshan, and the atmosphere was a bit tense.

Finally, Mu Shanshan took the initiative to greet Lin Fei, saying, "Have a seat first."

"No need, I’ll stand."

"Standing or sitting, it makes no difference to me."

"Then I might as well sit."

After a brief exchange of words, which was more of a verbal sparring.

Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan sat facing each other.

Compared to the past when he would often sit with his legs crossed, today Lin Fei, who was called back by a call from Mu Shanshan, was sitting upright for once.

Though it’s exaggerated to say that he was only touching the edge of the sofa, Lin Fei was clearly quite nervous inside.

After all, this was the first time Mu Shanshan had actively called him back while he was having a secret meeting with another woman.

The unknown is always frightening, especially when unclear of Mu Shanshan’s intentions or attitude towards the matter.

Clearly, Lin Fei couldn’t face Mu Shanshan like he normally would.

Fortunately, Mu Shanshan didn’t seem to pressurize Lin Fei too much.

After staring at Lin Fei for over ten seconds, Mu Shanshan said firmly, "Lin Fei, come over, sit a little closer to me."

If it were any other time, Lin Fei would definitely have bounced to her side with great enthusiasm at such an invitation from Mu Shanshan.

Absolutely nothing could stop him, not even gods or Buddhas!

However, now filled with anxiety, Lin Fei hesitated to approach. Even though his wife was indeed very beautiful, the timing was off.

"Honey, I think it’s best to keep some distance until we clear things up."

"You seem to have misunderstood something; I’m not negotiating with you. Come over, sit a little closer to me. Don’t make me say it a third time!"

By the end, Mu Shanshan’s tone had turned cold as the ice queen.

Realizing this, Lin Fei knew if he continued to stay stubborn, Mu Shanshan, the CEO wife, was bound to explode any second.

Thus, even knowing nothing good would come from her calling him over.

To avoid provoking her prematurely, Lin Fei had no choice but to suppress his anxiety and sit leisurely beside Mu Shanshan.

Once Lin Fei sat down, Mu Shanshan’s nearly impeccable beauty moved incredibly close to him. Her eyes, as clear as water, fixated on Lin Fei, her voice icy as she said one word at a time, "I—am—very—angry!"

Though he had anticipated Mu Shanshan wouldn’t follow conventional logic, her somewhat unconventional way of expressing anger.

Was indeed unexpected for Lin Fei.

Fortunately, Lin Fei had mentally prepared for this. After overcoming his initial shock, he quickly regained his composure.

"Regarding the fact that you’re very angry, you don’t need to tell me, I can tell myself. The real issue now is, what should I do to make you selectively forget this incident?"

"I don’t know."

"You can think about it, or maybe you shouldn’t think at all and pretend this didn’t happen. If that doesn’t work, I can kiss you to show my apology. Of course, if you think one kiss is too few, I can kiss you several times."

Mu Shanshan did not grow more angry from Lin Fei’s absurd and even roguish words, but with her clear eyes fixed on him for over ten seconds, she suddenly spoke coldly, "Did you kiss Minister Shen today?"

"No!"

Lin Fei’s outright denial was not a lie.

Though he and Shen Penny did kiss today, it was Penny who, touched by Lin Fei remembering their promise of a global trip, initiated it.

Clearly, Mu Shanshan didn’t know about this. Fortunately, she didn’t seem to intend to press Lin Fei further.

Having received Lin Fei’s denial, Mu Shanshan hesitated before directly pinching Lin Fei’s cheek with her fair, tender hand.

"Does it hurt?"

"Do you want the truth?"

"From now on, don’t let me hear any lies or nonsense. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee I’ll keep my composure. Now, answer me, does it hurt?"

"It doesn’t hurt."

With Lin Fei’s response, Mu Shanshan intensified her grip slightly.

Then, she asked once more, "Does it hurt?"

"No. Also, if your intention is to punish me this way, I think you might as well give up. Your strength isn’t enough to have any effect on me."

"So, are you suggesting I give up on punishing you?"

"If you’re willing,"

"I’m not!"

As her words fell, Mu Shanshan’s fair, tender hand pinched Lin Fei’s face again several times, then moved to his other cheek after feeling it wasn’t enough.

Only thus did she temporarily end her punishment.

After being silent for over a minute, Mu Shanshan, having organized her thoughts, refocused her clear eyes on Lin Fei, "I don’t want to hurt you, nor do I want to punish you. I just want you to understand that what you did today was wrong. Though I didn’t intervene with your private life in the past because I said I wouldn’t. I also know I have many shortcomings. But since you’ve proposed to me, and I’ve accepted you, I can’t let things slide anymore."

"Lin Fei, don’t think I’m joking with you. I’m telling you seriously that I won’t let you off easily again. I’ve accepted your proposal, and since you’ve given me the necklace, it means I’ve also received your parents’ acknowledgment. I’m not just your wife now, I’m also recognized by your parents as Lin Family’s daughter-in-law. Therefore, I now have the right to interfere in your private life."

"So, I hope incidents like today won’t happen again in the future. Let this one go, but if it happens again, I absolutely won’t let you off lightly. This is my solemn warning to you, given as your wife and the Lin Family’s daughter-in-law; do you understand?"

Understand, how could he not understand.

Having prepared himself mentally beforehand, and with Mu Shanshan stating things so clearly and logically now.

Lin Fei, even if he wanted not to understand, clearly couldn’t...
