The next day, Olive saw from the mirror’s reflection that her neck was full of hickeys. The weather outside was hot and there was no way she would go out wearing a high color top or a scarf.
She screamed furiously, “Alan Hoyle, you bastard!”
Alan rushed in and asked innocently, “What’s wrong, honey?”
Olive pointed at her own neck, “Look at what you’ve done. How can I go out to work like this?”
“It’s weekend today. You can just not go,” Alan reminded her.
“I’ve just come home from Jiangcheng two days. A lot of works are waiting for me.”
“The hotel isn’t yours anyway. Why do you work so hard?” Alan said deliberately. He wanted to see her reaction.
“I’ve made a promise and I’ve to do it well. Not to mention, I have 10% of their shares.”
That was her reason. Every time she avoided the importance and responded lightly. Others might see it to be reasonable, but he knew that that was only one of the reasons.
Alan smiled and said, “How about I give you half of my company’s shares, will you work for me?”
“Are you lack of people?” Olive rolled her eyes at him. Now, she was anxious for the red marks on her neck, yet he still could make a joke. She really wanted to burst his head. “Hurry up and think of a way for me. This is all your fault.”
“How can it be all my fault? My body has several of your bite marks too and they’re still hurting. You must’ve been a tiger in your past life. You have such sharp teeth. Look at this,” said Alan and opened up the buttons of his shirt. And surely, there were several teeth marks on his chest.
But she didn’t seem to remember. Besides, his could still be covered, but hers couldn’t.
“Oh, stop it. I should have bite your face instead and see how you’ll go out to meet people.”
“How about you bite me now?” He really put his face in front of her.
He really thought that she wouldn’t dare to bite him. Olive squeezed his face and put his soft part into her mouth.
“Close your eyes.”
Alan jumped away from her, “You seriously want to bite.”
“If not?” Olive snorted with her hands on her waist.
“How can you just bite just because you say so? No way.” Alan said and wanted to run away.
Olive naturally chased after him, “Stop there.”
“If you can catch me, I’ll let you bite me.”
The two were making a chaos in the house. Fortunately, no one was at home or they would have shaken their heads watching them. They were parents, but still acted like children.
Olive chased after she was out of breath. Several times she was about to catch him, but he could still slip away from her. Her legs cramped and she stopped chasing. She sat on the sofa in the living room and glared at him.
Alan laughed proudly, “Tired? I’ll make something for you to eat.”
“I don’t want to.”
“That’s not good. You’ll break my heart if you starve.” Alan turned to the kitchen. He prepared a bowl of egg, shredded pork noodle covered with a few green vegetables.
Women loved to play tricks. So, Olive sat there, staring at TV without looking at him. “Let me bite you and I’ll eat.”
“Do you really want to bite me?” Alan stared at his angry wife amused.
“Of course. If you don’t let me to, I can’t calm down.”
“Do you have the heart to do so?” Alan lightly raised his eyebrows.
“You have the heart to bite me so many times and I only bite you once. If you don’t let me bite you, I won’t eat and will starve your wife to death,” Olive threatened.
She was his wife. Alan held back his laugh and pretended to be sad. “Oh, fine. For the sake of my wife’s belly, I’ll reluctantly let you bite me. But, you have to be more merciful. You don’t want your husband’s face to be ruined, right?”
After she was allowed to, Olive turned happy. She laughed happily and reached out to pat his handsome face.
“Lower your head. You’re so tall and I can’t reach you.”
Alan simply sat down on a chair. “Now you can, right?”
“This is okay.” Olive murmured and ordered him, “Close your eyes. You can’t peek.”
“Which part of you that I’ve never seen?”
Olive stretched out her two fingers, making a poking his eyes gesture. “Hurry up. Close them.”
Woman was indeed a creature who couldn’t be offended. Alan hopelessly closed his eyes. Her slender fingers touched his face for a moment, as if looking for the most suitable part of meat.
Alan thought of an angry tigress. But why did the pain fall on his arm? It hurt so much that he couldn’t help but gasped.
