Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 328: Chapter 328: Do Not Pick the Wildflowers by the Roadside

Qi Taiguo returned home after 10 PM, finding the living room still brightly lit. Cheng Su hadn’t gone to bed yet, and was engrossed in reading a reference book; seeing him return, she put the book down and came to greet him.

Before she even came close, she caught the scent of alcohol and asked, ”You’ve been drinking today? What kind of welcome party was it?”

As he took off his uniform, Qi Taiguo replied, ”Those military doctors and nurses who were assigned to the grass-roots units reported for duty today, so we threw a welcome party. I just had a couple of small drinks to join in the fun. Didn’t your sister tell you?”

”She mentioned you had some welcome party but didn’t go into detail,” Cheng Su said.

Qi Taiguo uttered an ”oh” and, looking at her face, leaned in closer, only to be stopped by Cheng Su’s hand. She reprimanded him, ”Be careful, Mom and your sister might come out.”

His mood was instantly dampened and he clicked his tongue, ”I’ll go take a shower.”

Cheng Su nodded, and once he was in the bathroom, she picked up the uniform he had left on the back of the chair. Her nose twitched, her brows furrowing.

There was the scent of perfume on this uniform!

Cheng Su glanced toward the bathroom, placed the uniform in the basin, and sat down leisurely on the sofa to wait.

Qi Taiguo was quick in the shower and soon came out, seeing her still reading, he said, ”The weather’s getting cooler now. Go to bed early and don’t catch cold!”

”Come here!” Cheng Su patted the space beside her on the sofa.

Qi Taiguo walked over and sat down, wrapping his long arm around her and joking, ”What is it, did you miss me?”

Ever since his mother and sister arrived, they had given up their room, and Cheng Su was sleeping on the bivouac in the guest room. The bivouac was quite small and could not accommodate two, so Qi Taiguo had been sleeping on the sofa, resulting in a long time without intimacy between them.

”Stop it!” Cheng Su glared at him in feigned anger.

”You might not miss me, but I sure miss you!” Qi Taiguo whispered tantalizingly into her ear.

Tickled by his words, Cheng Su felt her body warming up and pushed him away, saying, ”Be serious, I am trying to talk to you!”

”Go on then!” Qi Taiguo leaned against her, his hand slipping under her pajamas and caressing her waist.

”Are all these new military doctors and nurses women?”

Unaware of Cheng Su’s thoughts, Qi Taiguo naively answered, ”They’re all women, that military doctor even has quite the reputation. Old Gao and the others have given her the nickname ’Bodhisattva’!”

Cheng Su’s interest was piqued, ”How come?”

Qi Taiguo then shared Chiang Qing’s background with her.

”Wow, she’s a dazzling, wealthy beauty!” Cheng Su raised her eyebrows, looking at him with a side glance, ”So, is it pleasing to the eye?”

Qi Taiguo was about to say it was alright but changed his tune upon catching Cheng Su’s expression, ”I didn’t really take a good look, no matter how pretty she is, she can’t compare to my wife!”

”Your lips say one thing, but your heart knows the truth,” Cheng Su huffed, ”There’s a saying that the bloom at home isn’t as fragrant as the wildflowers out there. Surely the ones outside must look better than the one at home.”

”So what if they do?”

”Nothing much, just felt like singing a song for you,” she said.

”What song?”

”Don’t pick the wildflowers by the roadside!” Cheng Su teased with a raised eyebrow.

Qi Taiguo was taken aback, patting his forehead and laughing, ”Look at you, getting jealous again?”

Cheng Su glared at him.

”Alright, alright, I won’t pick, I won’t pick, not the wildflowers!” Qi Taiguo assured her, ”But surely I can pick this homegrown flower, can’t I?”

His hand crept from her waist to her chest, teasing her gently. Cheng Su wanted to say it wasn’t convenient, but considering that the wildflowers outside were blooming so enticingly, what if she didn’t satisfy her man at home and he got lured away by one of them?

”Let’s go to the bedroom, keep it down!” Cheng Su nodded toward the guest room.

”Yes, ma’am!” Qi Taiguo scooped her up in one fell swoop, kicked open the guest room door, closed it behind them, and let his primal instincts take over...
