Chapter 10-Punishment

Wang Weixi always hoped that Chen Kexin would not keep staying in bed. Especially when he thought that he was going to work, leaving his wife alone at home, he was worried about whether she would get up for lunch. Therefore, when Chen Kexin suddenly got out of bed earlier than him, Wang Weixi knew that this was a good opportunity to train his wife.

Wang Weixi was having a sweet dream. He reached out to fondle his wife but found nothing, so he instantly woke up from his dream.

When he opened his eyes and confirmed that Chen Kexin was not in bed, Wang Weixi raised himself in surprise but saw Chen Kexin sitting in front of the computer and watching the anime that she had not finished yesterday.

"Dear, why did you get up so early? Don't you feel sleepy?" Wang Weixi lay down again and asked.

Chen Kexin turned her face and said with dark circles under her eyes, "Honey, you wake up, I can't sleep in the middle of the night, and I haven't finished this anime, so I get up and watch it."

Wang Weixi nodded somewhat speechlessly. "In the middle of the night... Don't you often sleep until the sun rises high in the sky and keep sleeping after lunch until the sunset? Are you not tired of getting up in the middle of the night?" Even though he had wanted to make love with her, he was unable to bear to disturb her to sleep. However, this little girl got up to watch anime in the middle of the night. Thinking of it, he was very sad.

Chen Kexin paused the video and came to the bed. Bang! She fell on Wang Weixi's body. The impact force was so abrupt that he almost spat out blood.

"Honey, give me a hug." This was a kind of coquettish way that he got used to, but it always had a magic power.

Wang Weixi held Chen Kexin's waist with both hands, turned over and pressed her under his body. Chen Kexin chuckled and her cheeks went rosy.

Looking at the pretty girl underneath, Wang Weix's eyes were full of gentleness. He reached out his right hand to fix her messy hairs and touched her nose, saying, "You're so naughty. Look at your dark circles."

Chen Kexin giggled and responded, "Bad boy, you don't like me?"

Wang Weixi kissed her cheek and said, "I didn't mean it."

"Well, if you don't mean it, that's fine, or I'll hit you. Haha, Go and cook for me, I am hungry." Chen Kexin replied while pushing Wang Weixi away.

Wang Weixi playfully held her tightly and buried his head in her neck. Enjoying the faint fragrance of her hair, he cozily closed his eyes.

Chen Kexin wrapped her arms around his waist and rested her face on his shoulder with a slight smile, whispering, "Dear, do you still feel sleepy?"

Wang Weixi shook his head and looked at her with an evil smile, saying, "No, I don't. I only want to do some morning exercise."

Chen Kexin blushed and gently hit his back, replying coyly, "Bad guy!"

Staring at Chen Kexin, whose eyes looked somewhat confused at that moment, Wang Weixi spoke with a snicker. "I'll launch my attack."

Chen Kexin dropped her gaze and said, "Bad guy, be gentle..."

...

When the morning exercise was done, Wang Weixi held his wife who slept peacefully in his arms and tenderly planted a kiss on her forehead. Then he rose to go to the bathroom. After taking a shower, he walked into the kitchen in a good mood. He looked at the clock. It was eight o'clock. As they had consumed a lot of physical strength, he thought Chen Kexin should be hungry, so he began to carefully prepare for breakfast.

Wang Weixi returned to their bedroom and unexpectedly saw Chen Kexin open her eyes. Chen Kexin, who had been asleep, actually opened her eyes so early for the first time, which amazed Wang Weixi, who did not figure out whether she was hungry or hyper.

"Dear, you don't want sleep more?" Wang Weixi drew to the bed and asked in a gentle tone.

Chen Kexin nodded. She lay on her side and considered her husband. Women always said that their men looked handsome from every angle. At this moment, Chen Kexin had to admit that she became more and more obsessed with her husband.

"Honey... I love you so much." Resting her head on Wang Weixi's leg, Chen Kexin said sweetly.

Wang Wei stared at Chen Kexin, who wore a serious look, and caressed her tender face. "I love you too," he said softly.

"Then go to take clothes for me. I have to get up and have breakfast with my husband."

Wang Weixi shook his head with resignation. "You're so lazy. If I go to work, are you going to lie in bed every day and wait for me to come back from work and hand you clothes?"

Chen Kexin thought about it with her head tilted and said with a worried expression, "Yap... what shall I do?"

Looking at Chen Kexin, Wang Weixi responded in an amusing and annoying tone, "Do you really want me to take clothes for you forever?"

Chen Kexin was still deep in thought. Silent for a while, she eventually showed a satisfied smile, "I've got it."

"What?"

Chen Kexin looked at Wang Weixi, who was curious, and said with a smirk, "I'll pick what I'll wear the next day before I go to bed every night. Then, before you go to work, put my clothes on my bedside table. Haha, am I smart?"

Wang Weixi's mouth couldn't help but twitch and felt as if a row of crows was flying over his head. Then he rewarded Chen Kexin with a gentle tap. "Naughty girl, you can't be so lazy anymore. I wanted to spoil you, but considering what you did, I decided to punish you."

Chen Kexin widened her eyes in disbelief and responded in a pitiful look. "Dear... are you serious..."

Wang Weixi nodded with a solemn expression, saying, "Of course."

Chen Kexin pouted her lips and replied coyly, "Honey, you don't love me..."

Wang Weixi nodded seriously again and said, "I am serious, and the punishment is... you need to do the dishes after breakfast. OK?"

Chen Kexin blinked her eyes and tried to get Wang Weixi's sympathy with her adorable expression. Unexpectedly, her husband lacked a sense of romance today. He removed Chen Kexin's head from his leg, walked to the wardrobe, took a princess dress trimmed with lace and threw it to Chen Kexin, saying, "I'll wait for you in the kitchen." Then he stepped out, leaving Chen Kexin gnashing her teeth.

"Oh... you don't cherish me. You're so cruel. You started to hurt my feelings after you've bled me dry. No! You're a bad guy. Woo woo woo!" Chen Kexin rolled in bed like a child who lost sweets. Hearing this, Wang Weixi turned his face to look at the mischievous wife, but he only covered his smile with his hands and whistled out of the room.

When she realized that it was useless to play the woman, Chen Kexin had to give up. She took the clothes and ran into the bathroom. Taking a shower, she put on the clothes, made her hair half-dry and put on light make-up. Ignoring how Wang Weixi mad would be, she got out of the room and came to the kitchen at her own pace after everything was done.

Wang Weixi held his chin with one hand and gave Chen Kexin a resentful look. "Dear... why not fix your face after breakfast?"

Chen Kexin waved her hand and responded, "This is not my habit."

She sat down, touched the bowl and found it was still warm. Wang Weixi explained with a smile, "I just warmed it up because I saw you doing your make-up."

Chen Kexin felt her heart became warm. No wonder she found that the bed had been cleaned up when she came out of the bathroom. She took the spoon and carefully have a mouthful of porridge. She seldom had breakfast, but at this moment, she felt that she had wasted so much time which should have been wonderful. She only had breakfast in haste on the second day after the wedding, but now she carefully tasted it and realized that the love that the breakfast contained was unequaled.

Wang Weixi looked seriously at Chen Kexin. Her expression did not look the kind of mischievous, but silently pretty. He even could not bear to disturb this quiet scenery.

Chen Kexin was quietly having breakfast while her memory slowly flowed in her heart. Wang Weixi not only gave her a feeling of a good man, but his care and his tolerance also let Chen Kexin recollect her deceased mother. Tears streamed down unconsciously, but Chen Kexin had not sensed it, which made Wang Weixi somewhat overwhelmed.

"Dear, what happened?" Wang Weixi asked worriedly.

Chen Kexin raised her head and showed a happy smile, saying, "Nothing."

"Then why are you crying?" This was the first time he had seen Chen Kexin crying, but he was unable to read emotions within it. It looked unpredictable but aroused his care.

Chen Kexin subconsciously reached out to touch the tears on her cheeks. Even she herself showed a surprised expression. "I don't know how..."

Wang Weixi put down the chopsticks, rose and came to Chen Kexin, who looked up with a naive smile. He tenderly held her in his arms and whispered in her ear, "Dear, if there is something upset you, tell me about it, okay?"

Chen Kexin giggled and responded, "But I'm not unhappy. I was so moved, so I cried." Wang Weixin stared at her with suspicion. Chen Kexin immediately added, "It's true, what I said is true."

Looking at Chen Kexin who wore a firm expression, Wang Weixi knitted his eyebrows, and then his eyes became gentler. He nodded and then kissed Chen Kexin's forehead, saying, "I hope my wife is always happy with me."

Chen Kexin put her head against Wang Weixi's and said with a bright smile, "I know, I will definitely."

Wang Weixi nodded and walked back to his seat. The couple glanced at each other and smiled. They started to enjoy breakfast. But Wang Weixi wanted to know what his wife was sad about, why she always smiled but scarcely uttered a word when he mentioned her family affairs, and why her sister treated him like a stranger.

"Is she as happy as what she looked, or has she always kept hiding her sorrow?"

It was still a sunny day. Wang Weixi looked through the window and squinted at the outside scenery. Their apartment was the innermost one on the third floor, so their kitchen had such a window with a good view. Wang Weixi usually looked up to the blue sky and listened to noises downstairs, but now Chen Kexin's tears conquered his brain.

After the breakfast, Chen Kexin intended to sneak back to the bedroom when Wang Weixi was distracted and avoid the punishment that Wang Weixi said this morning. However, when she took a half step, Wang Weixi turned his face and asked curiously, "Dear, where are you going?"

Chen Kexin froze, turned around, and obsequiously looked at Wang Weixi's rosy face. She straightened up and muttered, "Nothing... I want to warm up and do the dishes." But saying the three words "do the dishes", she hated to gnash her teeth with resentment.

Wang Weixi nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's my girl. Then I will help you wash the clothes that you changed yesterday. I'll leave the kitchen to you now."

Chen Kexin nodded, though ten million reluctance was revealed on her face.

Wang Weixi walked over, solemnly patted her shoulder and encouraged her. "Go for it, dear." Chen Kexin let out a depressed sigh as her bangs floated. She glared at Wang Weixi, who was gloating over it. However, Wang Weixi blinked his eyes to her, pushed his rimless glasses up on the bridge of his nose, and left while humming to himself.

Chen Kexin sighed with resignation. Staring at the dinner table, she walked back to her seat and sat down.
