After taking some time, Xi Xiaye finally understood what he meant. She squinted at him and said coldly, "So, you're dissing me now, are you?"

He turned around and laughed before he grabbed her. Then, he sat down on the sofa as he teased her gently, "Nope, how dare I diss my own wife?"

"You don't dare to or you don't know how to? You've already said it out loud just now. Do you think I'm stupid?"

Xi Xiaye started to set up the Go board. She placed a black piece first. "You'll have to let me get a three-piece advantage before you as a punishment."

Mu Yuchen smiled as he put a white piece on the board, staring at her in the eyes. "If you're this smart and charismatic when you face other people, I'm sure that you won't get taken advantage of."

Xi Xiaye was stunned for a moment. She did not say anything and was just focused on the board.

Mu Yuchen stopped talking as well. He poured her a glass of water, and the real fight between them started.

Soon, even Mu Yuchen had to admit that the woman before her was a true expert at Go chess. He had finally found himself a worthy opponent!

After a long war, he defeated her by half a piece and was genuinely surprised, but the expression on his face seemed calm as usual. He smiled at the defeated woman opposite him.

"Missus, it's time to fulfill your promise."

He pushed the board away as he looked at her with other intentions in his eyes.

"Can I owe you first, Mr. Mu?" She put her hand on her forehead and glanced at him embarrassedly.

"Do you think I'd let you owe me?" He said ever so calmly. He was separating the black and white pieces on the board while saying something that made her so embarrassed, but he just acted very naturally.

"I knew that you'd try to get away with it, Director Xi. You have to change this bad habit of yours. I might have to reconsider your future promotion."

Damn it!

How was this related to her work?

She frowned at him and said, "You can't use your position as Chairman Mu to bully me. I don't care how powerful you are in the office, but I get to have the final say at home. Otherwise, I'd be at a serious disadvantage. Why do I have to listen to you both at work and at home? Where are my human rights?!" She voiced out her opinions unhappily.

Mu Yuchen was shocked by her words. He leaned his body slightly as he looked at her and laughed. As he ran his fingers through her long hair and patted her head, a rarely seen tenderness appeared in his eyes. "The foodie has finally realized she has human rights too! Are you going to become the queen now?"

"Are you going to obey?" She raised her head from his arms and looked at him with her crystal-clear eyes.

He did not reply and just looked at her with a gentle smile.

After some silence, she pressed against him with a strained face. "If you don't obey, I'll..."

"You'll what?" He asked quietly.

"I'll eat you up!" She yelled loudly as she jumped onto him. Mu Yuchen was pressed down on the sofa. Her eyes brightened as she looked at Mu Yuchen under her. "I'm being serious here. I've thought about it thoroughly. We're purely colleagues in the office. You can't expose our true relationship as I think I enjoy my current work life, and I don't want to change it. I want to be low-profile. You're the boss at the company, so I'll listen to whatever you say, but after we get off work, I'm the boss!"

It weighed heavily on the next few decades of their life. She could not always be under him although he was the high and mighty Chairman Mu...

Mu Yuchen grabbed her small waist as he covered her left shoulder. He observed the serious-looking woman on top of him with interest in his eyes. After some thought, he replied, "Given that my basic rights are protected, this matter is negotiable."

"So, does that mean you agree?"

Her eyes brightened. She was overjoyed when he nodded, totally missing the mischievous look in his eyes.

"Since I've made such a sacrifice, shouldn't you reward me?"

His magnetic voice was extremely seductive as he narrowed his eyes at her.

"What do you want?"

She lowered her body and her long hair fell onto him. She barely realized that she ignited fireworks inside someone's pants and he was very tempted to commit a crime now.

"Don't you know it very well?" He said as his grip on her waist tightened. Anyone could get what he obviously meant, and Xi Xiaye was no exception. She was distracted for a moment while she looked into his deep eyes. She felt like she was being hypnotized. After hesitating for a while, she left a kiss on his lips.

Mu Yuchen would never let this chance slip away. He locked her head down with his large hand while his other hand on her waist moved higher to support the left side of her body, afraid that he might injure her wound again.

...

Suddenly, he felt that kissing her was addictive. He wanted to take more away from her.

He never thought that there would be a day he could not suppress his own luscious desires. Suddenly, he could feel his restraint fading away. He had once regretted such feelings before.

He would never look for any woman for two simple reasons: one was to not give him any chance to make such a cheap mistake since society would not let him off easily with these mistakes, and the second was that a woman that made him feel comfortable had never appeared before him.

For some reason, the above reasons did not apply to her. Of course, he would not push such feelings away since they were married anyway. He should be able to embrace all of her, and at the same time, he should belong to her as well.

As they were getting intimate, she noticed him protecting her left shoulder and it warmed her heart. She put her hands onto his face and kissed him...

The temperature in the room spiked up!

Ka-chak—

After some time, the door suddenly creaked open, and the two of them had no idea at all.
