98 NEW JOB, NEW ENVIRONMENT PART 5 (1/2)

Xue Lin went back home without any idea of the impending danger coming to her life. She dragged her exhausted body to the living room and found Ge Chen watching television. ”Welcome home, my wife.” He greeted her warmly.

”I'm home, my husband.” Xue Lin smiled at him.

”I'm going to have some ice cream. Do you want some?” he asked. It would be wonderful to eat ice cream and watch a movie together.

Xue Lin's eyes glittered. ”I'd love to! Wait, give me ten minutes and I'll bath first.” Before her husband could say anything, she ran upstairs. She seemed very punctual. She came wearing pink cotton pajamas within ten minutes. Her hair was still wet.

'She must have bathed in five minutes.' Ge Chen thought. He asked, ”Do you want me to dry your hair?”

”No, I want it like that. It'll help me to cool my head.” Xue Lin sat beside him and relaxed her body as she leaned against the couch.

Ge Chen's eyes traveled over her body and rested on her chest. He suddenly recalled that her sixth sense was sharper than an eagle. Before she could feel self-conscious, he quickly diverted his eyes and looked at the television screen. ”Do you want to watch something?”

”What do you have?” Xue Lin asked.

Ge Chen suggested, ”Would you like something romantic-”

He couldn't finish his sentence before Xue Lin interrupted him. ”No! Don't be so boring. Let's watch something exciting. It could be an action movie or horror.”

'Boring…' Ge Chen didn't know what to say. He thought he could build a romantic environment and then hug her close… 'But if we watch horror movies, doesn't it work the same way? She will cling onto me…' He started to daydreaming when his wife clapped in front of his face. She asked, ”My husband, are you tired? I don't think it's time to be in a daze. Were you daydreaming something weird? Your expression…”

”It's nothing. I was thinking about whether we should watch horror movies.�� Ge Chen hurriedly said.

Xue Lin never saw him talking so quickly. She narrowed her eyes and looked at him suspiciously. Ge Chen innocently asked, ”My wife?” Only then Xue Lin nodded. ”Sure.”

After they started watching, the Head Butler Ru Shan served the ice cream. When the exciting moment came, Xue Lin's eyes were glued to the screen. No matter how scary the ghost was, no matter how frightening the ghost's action was, Xue Lin didn't budge. Her hand subconsciously moved and she ate the ice cream.

Ge Chen's daydream was destroyed and crashed to the ground by Xue Lin's heroic deed.
