The Overnight Chosen Wife: Darling, Kiss Me Deeper

Song recommendation : All I ever need—Austine Mahone

___

"Did you really cut ties with your family?" Lanni asked when Xiehan picked her up from work. She had received countless calls from Wen Lin and when she called back, her mother-in-law expressed that she hoped she could convince her husband to go back home.

"I did." He confirmed. She was not shocked that it had happened. She had known all along that if Ji Huifen continued to push the matter regarding Ji Meiling, Xiehan might just decide to cut them off altogether. Even so, she was not comfortable with the thought of it.

"Is this the only way to solve things?" She placed a gentle hand on his back. "They did all the wrong things but isn't there a peaceful way? I just don't want you losing your family forever if it can be helped."

"I don't need a family who won't know when to respect boundaries. If they don't think my opinion matters even when they know where I'm coming from, then I really don't need them."

He didn't say it out aloud but she could tell from his voice that it broke his heart to have to leave the way he did. It was never a good thing to have to choose between your family and your parents, who could potentially cause harm.

She leaned over to kiss his face. "You have us."

His smile was full of love when he traced a hand down her stomach. "And you are all I would ever need."

She cupped his face and kissed him, using her lips to express her support. No matter what happened to his family, even if the world came crushing down on him, she would be by his side. On the other hand, it didn't matter what became of him. Even if he lost everything because of the feud with his family, he would be happy and content as long as he had her and the baby.

It was not a surprise that soon afterwards, Xiehan decided that it would be a good idea to move into a different house. He spent a ton of time searching online and it was only a fortnight later that he finally found one that ticked all the boxes. She thought he had too many requirements and didn't expect him to actually find a house that suited his tastes so soon.

"Why do you need so much detail anyway?" She asked as she looked at some of the pictures on his computer. He had shown it to her for her approval before they went to check it out physically.

"Well, I need it to be perfect for our family. We are having a baby soon." He reponded.

"That explains the outdoor swings and all the play areas, but how on earth do you explain two swimming pools?" She didn't understand.

"Of course, one where our child can swim with us when we decide to. The other is for the adults. Just for the two of us and we will decorate it to suit our tastes." He leaned over to her flirtatiously. "And I know how much you love doing it in the swimming pool so we can't have our child getting the aftermath of that."

"Xiehan!" She blushed and punched him playfully, and continued checking out the house.

"These are pictures from three years ago. How can we trust that the house is still in the same condition?" She wondered aloud, recalling the first house they had checked out. They had not been careful with the date and when they arrived at the actual house, it was old, on the verge of collapse and nothing like what they had seen in the pictures. The owner all so righteously claimed that it was their fault to not check the date of the pictures and they should blame themselves for expecting a house to be perfect after a decade. That was definitely not what any house should look like even after a century as long as it was taken care of, but they had to be more careful this time.

"I looked it up some more. The former owners are a respectable couple with five children and two pets. They only moved out two months ago so the house is still in perfect condition and since they had kids, the place was kept child-friendly." He sat on the bed. "Honey, will you look at the house all night, or will you look at me once?"

She turned to glance at him over her shoulder. "Did I just hear you whining for attention?"

"What if you did?"

She slammed the laptop shut and went over to him, straddling him. "Then I'll give you all the attention you want." She pressed her hands against his chest.

"When do we go to see the house?" She asked out of the blue, laughing when he looked deflated. "Don't get me wrong. I just remember that I saw so many places to get naughty in the pictures. The balconies, the terrace, the kitchen,"

"The music room," He added.

"Music room?"

"The former owners had a grand piano. We get it as a bonus for buying the house and I'd very much love to bend you over the piano and have you play some music."

They shared a laugh and she was embarrassed at the double meaning of his words. "You are naughty."

"You should be used to it, Mrs. Ji. But you still blush every time I tease you. It's so cute."

"I can be bad as well." She teased.

"Then I'd like to hear some "bad" music in advance." He pulled her up against his erection and groaned when she rubbed her core against it. She knew just what to do to drive him crazy.

"What should I do to you tonight, Xiehan?" His name was a whisper leaving her lips in the most seductive tone. It was the same way she said it out when in the haze of her climax and he couldn't have enough of it.

"Call me that again. In that voice." He pleaded in her ear.

"Ask me nicely." She pushed him to lie on the bed before climbing onto him. He held her head down and kissed her passionately.

"Damn, Xiehan, I wanted to tease you a little longer but I can't anymore. I need you."

He chuckled as he helped her out of her clothes. "This doesn't save you from having to pay for teasing me, little seductress."

And he did make her pay for teasing.

The following day, Lanni stretched her limbs when she woke up. She was in Xiehan's embrace, and he woke up thanks to her movements.

"Are you seducing me again?"

"It would have been great but we have to go. We set the appointment at 10am and we only have two hours." She shuffled off the bed only to be pulled back by him.

"That's enough time to fool around a little." His lips landed on hers. "I can't have enough of you. What should I do?"

"Keep having me. That's the only solution. There is no antidote to this addiction." She teased.

"I don't need an antidote. I only need you."

Countless kisses later, they finally freshened up and went to the agreed location with a few minutes to spare.

Peach Estate was in the outskirts of the city, a two and a half hour drive from the Ji Mansion. It was not too far from Feng Ji International but the Ji family couldn't possibly have enough time to keep trying to get to them. It was not nearly as accessible to their current residence which was only half an hour away from the Ji family mansion.

"This is a perfect distance away." She agreed. Lin Media Group was harder to get to, but that would not be much of a problem since she didn't need to start work early anyway. In the evenings, Xiehan would pick her up. It was the perfect arrangement.

"No one will ever bother us here." He kissed her happily as they looked around. The realtor arrived, apologising for being late, and offered to show them around.

"Which room would you like to see first?" He asked.

"The kitchen." He was quick to respond. He had initially thought that if he was going to cook delicious food for his wife, the kitchen would have to be perfect. But that was not what Lanni thought and she had to clear her throat to mask her embarrassment. Indeed, one would become a pervert if they stayed to close to one. Since when did she start having such dirty thoughts?

Xiehan held her hand and squeezed it meaningfully as they went to the kitchen to check it out. It was just as big as it had been described online and pretty much similar to the pictures. The few differences were additions they didn't mind. There was even a reading nook at one end and Xiehan thought it would be perfect to let her read or paint there while he cooked.

They proceeded to check out the bedrooms and bathrooms and were discussing how to make the swimming pools child proof when the realtor's assistant rushed over and whispered in his ear.

He excused himself to leave. "Please excuse me. I have to handle something but I'll be done in a jiffy."

"Go ahead. We will look around meanwhile." Lanni offered a smile before turning to Xiehan.

"It's mother." He said.

"Are you sure?" She was shocked, as they had only arrived a few minutes ago. How would Wen Lin know where to find them?

"Ruby told her.. Do you want to hear what she has to say?" He asked.
