Chapter 149: Finale–Gu Jin and Mu Mingcheng (3)

“I finished my work here, so I’ll be heading home with you . There won’t be any need for me to visit this place again . ” Gu Jin greeted the a.s.sistant before joining her husband and son in the car .

Gu Jin was quite tired from working all day so by the time she got home, she lay on the sofa and closed her eyes for a nap . When she opened her eyes, she noticed Mu Mingcheng sitting beside her with a frown . “Why do you have such an unhappy face?”

“At this age, is your temper still that of a child’s?” Gu Jin raised a finger and poked her husband’s cheek . “Why are you so unhappy on your birthday? Tell me . ”

Mu Mingcheng’s face became darker and her glanced back at her .

“Well, well, I’m just kidding . You’re not old at all . ” Gu Jin snuggled against Mu Mingcheng’s neck and printed a kiss at the corner of his lips .

Mu Mingcheng, who had yet to reach 35-years-old, was still a handsome man by appearance, no matter his age . No one knew better than Gu Jin about how his strong abdominal muscles and smooth mermaid line always took her to the peak during those quiet nights .

Compared to how he was eight years ago, his taste was much more lingering . Just like a cup of old wine, the taste was more delicious and intoxicating .

But Gu Jin didn’t make any comments about his birthday or age .

At dinner time, Mu Yunye kept asking Gu Jin what her birthday gift was going to be for her father this year .

Gu Jin’s eyes were filled with amus.e.m.e.nt upon noticing how Mu Mingcheng’s ears perked up despite his silence . “We’re still a young couple . What birthday gift would you like me to buy for you?” She raised her chin and pretended to be prideful as she spoke: “Even if there’s a gift, little Ye Zi can’t take a peek . Who was it who said you can’t give me a kiss or even a hug earlier this afternoon?”

Mu Yunye quickly glanced at Mu Mingcheng and tentatively asked, “So if I give you a hug now, can you let me have a look? Just one look . ” As if to be sure, he put up his fat index finger .

Gu Jin pretended to examine him for a while before nodding ‘reluctantly’ then received a kiss from his son . Afterwards, she got up, went to the bathroom and took out a box .

Under the expectant gazes of her husband and son, Gu Jin opened the box to reveal an exquisite and stylish wrist.w.a.tch .

“Mom, you’re not very creative . ” Mu Yunye was excited to see the present at first, but now, his eyes couldn’t hide his disappointment . He shook his head and sighed: “This year is a watch . Last year was a belt, and the year before last was a cuff b.u.t.ton…”

“Mu Yunye,” Mu Mingcheng called while Gu Jin remained silent . With a straight face, he said very seriously: “As long as your mother gave the gift, I like it . ”

Mu Yunye pouted his lips . As a kid, he couldn’t have a say while his father was infatuated without principles in front of his mother .

Gu Jin on the other hand, tilted her head and smiled at Mu Mingcheng, her gaze full of meaning .

Their family lived on the second floor . Mu Mingcheng trained Little Ye Zi to sleep by himself half a year ago . At 9:30, he went back to his room, accompanied by Gu Jin .

After coaxing her son to sleep soundly, Gu Jin went out the room and looked around the house . Unexpectedly, she found Mu Mingcheng, who had been cold for half a day, back at his study office .

She gently opened the door and saw her husband attentively doing his work .

Gu Jin raised a brow and went to the bathroom .

Mu Mingcheng, who spent half an hour in his study, was in such a bad mood that he didn’t go to find his wife to make amends . On his birthday, not only did Gu Jin go out for work . She even bluntly pointed out his age, which really poked on his weakness .

Ever since reaching his thirtieth birthday, ‘old’ was the last word he wanted to hear . Gu Jin was turning 30-years-old this year .

He’ll make her see just how ‘old’ he is tonight .

If the mountain doesn’t come down, then it’s on him . He’ll just climb up the mountain himself . After making up his mind, Mu Mingcheng placed down the doc.u.ment, and looked up . He’ll make sure she can’t stand up after tonight .

At the door, Gu Jin wore a white s.h.i.+rt without any underwear . Her tender feet stepped on the long wool carpet, leaving a trail of water droplets .

Feeling drowsy, Gu Jin wanted to scold her son for saying she wasn’t creative . He only saw her little gifts, but for the actual present, how many tears did she have to shed?

Their bedroom was warm and filled with the fragrance of spring .
