My Wife is a Goddess: 99 Secret Kisses

After a bath, Xue Lin came out of the bathroom. She was wearing the dress her husband chose for her. Ge Chen already removed the bed cover. He said, "You can look around the house if you want. I won't take long." Then he took his clothes and went inside the bathroom.

Once Xue Lin was alone, she looked around the bedroom. It was decorated for the newlyweds, that's for sure. Everything was covered in red clothes, red roses, and red candles. 'This Su Family or whatever it is, they live up to their reputation and taste. I've to match them from now on.' Xue Lin exhaled deeply. 'Responsibilities of an adult… that's why I didn't want to get married. I wanted to live alone so that I had only myself to take care of. Now I have a bunch of people to take care of.' She chuckled sadly. 'As if I have time to do that. I'm not sure if I'll be alive that long…' She shook her head. 'I should think that way. If I think positively, I'll succeed. I know I can do it. I'm brave and I'm strong. Moreover, the King of the European Underworld is scared of me. No one can defeat me.' She looked resolute and very proud of herself.

It was a large bedroom and the king-size bed was in the middle of the room. She was very satisfied with the size of the bed. They don't have to snuggle close when they sleep.

The room was richly decorated. There were two large windows. The window was on the east that was behind the bed. Another window was on the south, the right side of the bed. Besides the second window was the balcony. Xue Lin strode there barefooted. It was open and wide. Xue Lin liked it very much. The part she liked the most was a wooden swing in the middle of the balcony. It was well burnished and covered with thick mattresses. She sat on it and let her feet move the swing.

The gentle breeze blew her hair. She looked at the evening sky and she could see numerous stars. She had never seen so many stars in the city. The only time she saw stars was when she went out to the mountain areas for camping. She could smell the moist soil. Maybe it was raining before they reached here. She looked around and saw trees around the house. She started to wonder if they were in the city area or the countryside. She liked nature and so she loved this place the moment she laid her eyes on the place.

She didn't know how long she was looking at the sky. Ge Chen came out of the bathroom after a shower and came to find her on the balcony. "Did you like it?"

Xue Lin turned to see him standing in the doorway. His head was hidden under the towel. He was wiping his hair. His sky-blue shirt was unbuttoned and his toned chest was showing off. Xue Lin blushed and averted her gaze. She replied, "I like the swing. I didn't think boys like swings as well."

Ge Chen walked closer and pushed the swing from behind. "I ordered it for you. I thought you might like it. I'm glad that you do."

Xue Lin enjoyed it. She was grateful for his thoughtfulness and caring. "You are thoughtful. Thank you!"

Ge Chen told her without hesitation. "I'll do anything for you. If you need anything, you just have to tell me."

'There he goes again,' Xue Lin thought. She started to think that husbands like to make a move on their wives. "I will. Is this the place you lived with your mother?" She quickly changed the subject before it became awkward.

"Yes, this is the house I had memories of my mother." Ge Chen looked at the sky. He recalled the time he came here with his mother. Those were wonderful and precious memories.

Xue Lin praised her late mother-in-law. "She has good taste. I like nature. Are we in the city? The sky looks so clear."

He replied, "We are further away from the city. This place is off-limit for outsiders. As far as your eyes go is our land. The trees are the border."

"..." Xue Lin was speechless for a while. "Your mother was filthy rich."

"She was. We are in the middle of the woods. Behind the house is the mountain trail." Ge Chen smirked. His mother only bought this house. When he was kicked out of the Ge Mansion, he came back here and bought the land around the house. This area was as big as the Mu Castle land in Florence, Italy. He grew up there, so he knew.

"Then there is a river too, right?" Xue Lin's eyes sparkled. She was thinking of swimming, camping, catching fish, rowing boats, and doing other fun activities.

Ge Chen liked her enthusiasm. At first, he was worried about her taste. He was relieved that their tastes were quite similar. "You are right. There are also animals. That's why, if you want to go out, you have to take a guide with you. Don't go alone."

"I understand." Xue Lin nodded. She didn't like bugs and ferocious animals. It has been a long while since she last went out camping in the woods. She will be careful in the future.

Seeing a bonfire on the west side of the mansion, Xue Lin stood up. She saw Su Fengfei, Gu Xiali, Louis, and Ming Yu. There were other people in maid and butler uniforms. She saw a huge table full of food. There were candles and lanterns to lighten up the place.

Growl~

The smell of the delicious meals entered her nostrils and her stomach cried out for food. She wasn't embarrassed in the slightest. She rubbed her stomach and told her husband, "Hurry and dress up. We have to go down."

Ge Chen smiled. "As you wish, my wife."
