She felt her face burning and glared at him. "Do your subordinates have any idea how indecent you are?"
"How am I indecent?" Mu Xichen pried her hand away. "I feel like I'm constantly wrongfully accused by my wife."
As he spoke, Mu Xichen took her hand and slid it down his lower abdomen. Then he continued in a quiet and hoarse voice, "How sad is that."
Li Beinian felt her face turning increasingly hot. She pushed him away forcefully and retorted, "Do what you like. I'm going out, it's fine by me if you want to stay home."
"Aren't you going to comfort me?"
"Comfort my foot!" The exasperated Li Beinian turned to walk off.
Mu Xichen sniggered and followed behind.
