Chapter 63 Husband, I Love You
"How about that? My medical skills aren't bad, right?" Su Chen winked at Lin Ruoxue.
"Not bad." Lin Ruoxue gave a perfunctory reply, the stubborn Lin Ruoxue wouldn't give in so easily!
But seeing the beads of sweat on Su Chen's forehead, she still felt somewhat moved.
However, her curiosity about the secrets her husband held deepened.
Not only could he cook dishes that Michelin-starred chefs couldn't match, but his knowledge of music was also profoundly deep!
Today, he had demonstrated unmatched medical skills. Although she didn't know the extent of Su Chen's medical skills, she knew they must be extraordinary.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have cured her chronic condition so quickly!
More likely, he might even casually give away something worth millions of US dollars!
Who exactly was her husband? How many things about him did she not know?
Lin Ruoxue felt that Su Chen was filled with too many secrets worth exploring, like a treasure chest.
"I must figure all this out!"
Lin Ruoxue silently resolved in her heart.
"What are you thinking about?"
Su Chen noticed Lin Ruoxue's increasingly strange gaze and couldn't help but ask.
"Nothing."
Lin Ruoxue shook her head, burying her thoughts deep inside.
"Well then, what about our bet?" Su Chen revealed a slightly mischievous smile. "Aren't you supposed to fulfill the wager now?"
"Ah~~~"
Lin Ruoxue was still happy about getting healthier, but she had clearly forgotten that once Su Chen truly cured her, she would have to fulfill the bet.
Thinking of Su Chen's previous excessive request, Lin Ruoxue's face blushed again, and she didn't dare meet Su Chen's gaze.
Su Chen hadn't expected Lin Ruoxue to have such an adorable side, and immediately felt a mischievous urge to tease her a bit.
But he also knew that Lin Ruoxue, the Ice Beauty, would never do that kind of thing.
He had made the request on a whim and hadn't taken it seriously, but obviously, Su Chen wasn't going to let her off easily either.
"What's wrong? Hurry up, I've been waiting!" Su Chen urged.
"Can we do it later? I'm not ready yet."
Lin Ruoxue clenched her fists nervously and asked somewhat uneasily.
"What do you need to get ready for? If you want to back out, just say it." Su Chen's face showed an 'I knew it' expression. "After all, you're the CEO, and I'm just a driver. There's nothing I can do if you want to back out."
"Who's backing out! Make yourself clear!"
Lin Ruoxue, who had battled in the business world, valued integrity above all, and now being accused of backing out was something she couldn't tolerate.
"You made a bet but aren't fulfilling it. Isn't that backing out? But you don't have to worry, I figured you were that kind of person already."
Su Chen lit a cigarette nonchalantly and said,
"After all, this is typical behavior for you businessmen."
"Who said I'm backing out?! Bring it on, I'm not scared of anyone!"
A surge of impulsive energy burst from Lin Ruoxue's chest, and she blurted out those words, but she regretted them as soon as she spoke.
"Uh, are you serious?" Su Chen suddenly widened his eyes, his face filled with disbelief. "You're not joking?"
"I, I . . ."
Lin Ruoxue started to stammer, wanting to take back her words, but that would mean backing down, and the usually assertive Lin Ruoxue was not accustomed to doing so.
"Forget it, I knew you were just kidding." Su Chen purposely showed a look of "contempt," "Let's treat this bet as a joke, not to be taken seriously."
Su Chen's contempt deeply wounded Lin Ruoxue's strong sense of pride. When had she ever been looked down upon like this?
Su Chen's expression seemed to say, I knew you wouldn't keep your word, I won't bother with you.
For Lin Ruoxue, this was unbearable!
"Fine, bring it on, I'll fulfill the bet right now!"
A heroic aura emerged on Lin Ruoxue's face, as if she was about to leap into a dragon's den or a tiger's lair.
"There's no need to force yourself." Su Chen shook his head and sighed.
"No, I must do it, I will fulfill the bet right now." Lin Ruoxue's fighting spirit was completely ignited by Su Chen's disdainful attitude.
"Really want to?" Su Chen still couldn't believe that Lin Ruoxue was actually going to fulfill that bet.
He had only intended to provoke her, but had underestimated Lin Ruoxue's pride. At this moment, Lin Ruoxue seemed determined to go through with it no matter what.
"I must!" Lin Ruoxue's emotions were somewhat agitated, her eyes shooting out two intense beams of fire!
"Alright then, since you insist, I'll reluctantly agree."
Su Chen expressed his helplessness. Watching his shameless demeanor, Lin Ruoxue felt like taking off her high heels and vehemently slapping his face with the soles, since he seemed to have no shame at all.
"Come on!"
Su Chen spread his arms, looking like a lamb to the slaughter.
His face again betrayed a deep, mischievous smile as he watched Lin Ruoxue, who seemed somewhat uneasy on the couch.
Lin Ruoxue slowly stood up, and under Su Chen's intensely invasive gaze, she trembled like a frightened little rabbit, feeling a bit stiff all over.
The words she had spoken before were powered by a surging sense of injustice in her chest; now that she really had to fulfill the bet, she became incredibly nervous and flustered.
Especially under Su Chen's presumptuous gaze, it felt as if her clothes were being stripped off by his eyes.
Thinking about the embarrassing act she was about to perform, Lin Ruoxue felt like her body was on fire, getting hotter by the moment!
"Close your eyes."
Lin Ruoxue spoke softly, her head lowered.
Upon hearing this, Su Chen obediently closed his eyes, and Lin Ruoxue felt slightly better, then slowly moved towards him.
Hearing the sound of her approaching footsteps and the distinctive fragrance of Lin Ruoxue's body wafting over, Su Chen's heart also began to beat uncontrollably.
"Closer, closer, even closer."
Su Chen's heartbeat quickened even more, making him curse himself silently for being so pathetic; he was not a novice, and besides, he was facing his legally wedded wife—what was there to be nervous about?
Just then, Lin Ruoxue had already walked up to him, the distance between them barely an inch.
Looking at Su Chen's somewhat immature face, Lin Ruoxue's heart nearly leapt out of her throat!
At that moment, Lin Ruoxue was still engaged in a fierce mental battle, her longstanding conservatism making it hard for her to take that step.
"To hell with it, better to die early than live in torment!"
Fortunately, this guy was still her husband in name, which lessened her sense of guilt somewhat.
With a resigned-to-fate mindset, Lin Ruoxue slowly tiptoed and, like a dragonfly skimming the water, kissed Su Chen on the cheek while cooingly calling out:
"Hubby, I love you!"
