It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1627

"Really? Do I have to answer that question... now?" Edward stole a glance at Justin and hesitated. 'There's a kid here. I don't think it's appropriate to discuss this right now, ' he thought to himself.

"Yes, right now. I want to know," Daisy answered without even a second's diffidence.

"Well, Senior Colonel Ouyang, I think the most important thing is our sex life," Edward mumbled in a low tone, but his expression remained fixed, denying that he had just discussed something inappropriate.

"Ha-ha!" Justin couldn't help laughing out loud at Edward's mumbled words, but he immediately hid his wide toothed grin behind hastily raised hands when he saw Daisy's stern face. He wisely decided to keep quiet, otherwise his mother would surely punish him.

"Mr. Mu, you are such an asshole! How can you even mention that in front of our child?" Daisy snapped, her face twitching in surprise. She had always known he was a willful man, but she hadn't expected that he would broach their sex life with their son present.

"You demanded an answer to your question!" Edward defended himself, looking rather innocent.

"Really? So, you'll do whatever I ask you to do? Then, why don't you do 100 push-ups right now?" Daisy said through gritted teeth. She was feeling disarmed by her husband's innocent defense.

"Now?" Edward asked in disbelief. He was in full business attire, including leather shoes!

"You don't want to do it?" Daisy snorted.

"Fine! Just 100 push-ups. That's a piece of cake." Edward began to unbutton his coat. If his employees were here, they would never believe their eyes. Their aloof boss was a lamb, tamed by his wife.

He shed his coat and briefcase into Daisy's arms purposefully. Since she asked him to do the push-ups, she could carry his stuff.

"Justin, come sit on your daddy's back!" Daisy ordered just as Edward dropped down.

"Great! I love that." Justin was excited at the free piggy-back ride.

"Wait! Are you trying to murder your husband? You didn't mention that earlier!" Edward was startled. Yes, 100 push-ups meant nothing to him. But if Justin sat on his back while he was doing push-ups, he believed he would be challenged, possibly beyond even his limits.

"I just changed my mind. You did say that 100 push-ups is a piece of cake for you. So, I have to make it harder. Otherwise, you won't learn your lesson," Daisy said with a cunning smile. 'He will be exhausted after that, and he will be unable to punish me later, ' she thought to herself.

"Can I say no?" Frustration was written all over Edward's face. He hadn't expected his wife to be so cruel.

"Hmm, what do you think?" Daisy riposted with a sweet smile.

"Okay, I get it." Edward sighed, summoning up some profound fortitude. He just hoped that Justin would behave on his back, otherwise he would be completely finished.

"Be quick! I still have some work to finish," Daisy said, purposefully checking the time. Although she was secretly thrilled, she remained poker-faced.

"Mommy, why don't you leave and finish your business? I will monitor daddy for you," Justin offered with a big grin.

"Sounds good. But I warn you, do not try to employ trickery. I'll monitor you both." Actually, Daisy didn't really want to be mean to Edward, especially since he hadn't even eaten yet. If he became resentful, it would make her feel wretched. Justin's offer came as a pleasant solution to the dilemma that faced her. She knew the father and son would play tricks after she left, providing Edward a way to save face.

Edward winked at Justin, signaling him to show mercy on him later.
