Chapter 103
103 Ch. 103 Anxia Is Over The Moon
“Richie!” Anxia directly entered the room and rushed toward her husband. Her thundering voice startled Richard, sitting on the floor with Lori. Not to mention, Anxia ran up to him and hugged him without warning, causing him to lose his balance and would fall if it weren’t for his hands leaning on the floor.
“Daddy!” Lori imitated her mother by hugging her father enthusiastically, and she was between her parents.
“Lori, isn’t daddy particularly handsome today?”
“En!”
“Haven’t I been handsome all this time?” Richard pretended to be sulking as he was getting the impression that he looked handsome just for today.
“You are always handsome,” Anxia cupped her husband’s face. “But today you are extraordinarily handsome.” she continued and showered light kisses over Richard’s face making the man stunned.
Is he dreaming? Why has his wife changed drastically? Not long before, Anxia gave the initiative to kiss him first, and now the woman was more daring and aggressive.
Richard didn’t know what happened, but he knew Anxia was over the moon, and he believed it was because the talk with Ling Meng went well. However... does it make sense to be happy when Anxia knew that Ling Meng could no longer walk? Unless... Ling Meng left Anxia in the dark.
Richard still pondered about his wife’s cheerfulness when spongy things landed on his lips, awakening him from his thoughts.
.....
Anxia kissed him!! Richard smirked and responded in more demanding. His hand shifted to her head to deepen their kiss, and he snaked his tongue to dance with hers.
“Lori is here.” Anxia breathlessly ended their fondling tongues when she sensed Richard was about to take things further.
Richard smiled crookedly, realizing his wife was using their daughter as a shield. “Xia Xia, are you only this aggressive around our daughter? I can summon Calydta to play with her while we can play alone.”
Anxia’s face was burning, hearing the seductive whisper from her husband.
“Besides,” Richard whispered again, “Our baby is such an obedient child. Just look at her. She doesn’t open her eyes at all.”
Anxia’s eyes widened at this, and she glanced at their daughter to see that Lori had covered her eyes with her two tiny hands. However, she could see a little gap between Lori’s fingers. With one look, Anxia immediately knew this naughty daughter was peeking through the gaps in her fingers. Not to mention, a toothy grin was perfectly adorned on her cute tiny face.
“Lori, what are you doing?” Anxia asked in a firm tone as if she was angry.
“What? I’m doing nothing.” her eyes were still peering through the tiny holes between her fingers, and some giggling escaped from her throat.
Anxia crawled out of Richard’s embrace to approach her daughter. She moved her hands and danced her fingers tickling under Lori’s armpits.
Lori screeched in surprise and removed her hands from her eyes before escaping to hide behind her father. But Anxia didn’t give up and lifted an arm over Richard’s shoulder to reach for their daughter.
Richard laughed at his wife and daughter’s ridiculousness and cracked up even more when Anxia’s fingers tickled his waist. He enlivened the atmosphere by tickling Anxia’s back while his other hand tickled his daughter. The laughter of the three filled the room, and immense joy filled their faces.
Right at dinner time, a maid brought a trail of food to Anxia’s room according to Richard’s request. Although Anxia wondered why Richard didn’t want to meet Anxia with the mysterious Lady Q, Anxia didn’t complain.
But she couldn’t help but wonder why Richard was spending all day with her and Lori instead of accompanying Lady Q. Wasn’t that woman his cousin?
As far as Anxia could remember, Richard had a good relationship with his siblings, including his cousin. But why did it seem that Richard didn’t like this cousin?
Lori also didn’t mind being in her mother’s room with her father all day.
This room wasn’t small, so Anxia and Lori didn’t feel like they were in prison. In fact, Lori was happier to have both parents with her than just one of them.
Lori didn’t know what had happened between her parents, but she could feel the changes between them in a good way. She could feel her mother had accepted her father, and the relationship between the two became closer.
That’s why Lori had so much fun that day and played while taking as many selfie photos as she could.
This time, Lori didn’t need to style her parents’ poses because her father and mother took the initiative to pose themselves. And their poses were incredibly satisfying, even better than they did on the boat.
They took selfies on the bed with three heads in a circle, and then they took a group photo on the balcony with the mountains in the background.
The number of photos they have taken has been countless, and Lori never gets tired of looking at the results of their shots.
Anxia and Richard also saw the shots on the phone camera with their daughter. There they could see broad smiles adorning their faces and beams of happiness dancing in their eyes.
It truly showed a normal happy family as if they had no secret to the world.
“Richie, thank you.” her sudden gratitude made Richard raise an eyebrow.
What is his wife thanking? Had he done something to please her? Or maybe the girl thanked him for accompanying them all day here and making Lori laugh?
If that’s the case, Anxia has nothing to thank. He did it out of his own free will, and he also felt happy seeing Anxia and his daughter laughing heartily like this.
Before Richard had time to tell Anxia not to thank him for this trivial thing, Anxia continued her sentence.
“Thank you for trying to find my mother.”
“...” How did Anxia know about that? Was it Ling Meng?
So that’s why she was so daring and cheerful like this. She was elated knowing her mother was out of reach of Master Yu.
“Anything for you.”
The affectionated light kiss on her crown made Anxia’s day perfect.
