Sugar And Spice: The CEO's Feisty Wife Chapter 377 - Sweet And Salt

Ever since Xie Yuansheng had seen her naked in the morning, he had been hiding from her because of embarra.s.sment. Even though she had thanked him for caring for her, he still didn't know how to face her after the morning's fiasco. Plus whenever he looked at her, his lewd thoughts started bouncing around in his mind. So in order to escape it all, he had made her breakfast in the morning and then on the pretext of having a headache, he went back to his room, although he had taken medicine and he was perfectly fine. In his room he was looking and solving all the math problems that the doctor had given him. It was at this time that he heard the door open. He looked up and saw Lu Boyun. 

"Yes Lu Boyun?" he asked.

Lu Boyun made a face and said, "Young Miss is calling you out in the dining hall. You have added a lot of salt to the cheese b.a.l.l.s."

Xie Yuansheng's eyes grew wide with horror. In his nervousness he must have added a lot of salt. "Do I have to make them again?" he asked.

Lu Boyun shrugged. "How would I know? You have to talk to the Young Miss about it." 

Cursing his mood and his luck, Xie Yuansheng got up from the bed. He wanted to avoid her and all he was doing was getting more and more embroiled with her. Reluctantly, he walked out of his room behind Lu Boyun and followed him to the dining hall where Feng Xinying was sitting quietly reading the morning newspaper. When their eyes met, he became red as tomatoes while she was expressionless. She was wearing a lovely silk pink s.h.i.+rt with b.u.t.tons opened till just above her chest, which she had paired with black shorts. 

"Shengu, these cheese b.a.l.l.s have a lot of salt," she said picking one up. 

"Young Miss, how can this be? I had tasted the ingredients before creating those b.a.l.l.s. It was perfect!" he replied in his defense. 

Feng Xinying gestured him with her index finger saying, "Come here." 

He went near her. 

"Sit down," she requested pointing towards a chair adjacent to her. 

Xie Yuansheng's face scrunched a little. He walked up to the chair slowly, pulled it and sat down on it far away from her on the corner. 

She picked a cheese ball in her hands and took it near his mouth to feed it with her hands. "Open your mouth," she said looking in his eyes with affection. 

As if hypnotized by her, he opened his mouth and she put the cheese ball inside. "Now eat it."

Xie Yuansheng ate it slowly and to his surprise, the salt was absolutely fine. "Umm… the salt is just the right amount Miss Xinying," he said. 

"Ah, is it? Are you sure?" she asked and picked another one, which she put in her mouth. Immediately she spat it out, "Ptooey!" She looked at him with nose scrunched and said, "This one has so much salt." Then once again she picked another one and said, "Eat this one Shengu."

Shengu opened his mouth and she placed it inside on his tongue, lightly brus.h.i.+ng it and his lips with her fingers. Xie Yuansheng looked at her and as if on impulsive involuntary action, he closed his mouth around her finger, slightly biting it, wanting to suck it. She removed it and he said, "Sorry Miss Xinying!" 

"It's fine, don't worry," she said. Then she kept her hands on the table and rested her chin on her hand. "How is it?" she asked again. "Isn't it salty?"

"No…" he shook his head. "The salt is fine."

For the next ten minutes, Lu Boyun witnessed Feng Xinying making young master eat all the cheese b.a.l.l.s with her hands with each of them sticking to their points of view while none of them wanting to stop the action. Finally when all of them were over, he asked, "So, should I make more of these cheese b.a.l.l.s or would you like to eat something else Miss Xinying?" 

Both of them snapped out of their reverie and stared at Lu Boyun with hatred. Lu Boyun stared at them, his eyes traveling from one to the other and his mind thinking, why can't you both get a room? 

Ignoring his sentence, Feng Xinying looked at Xie Yuansheng again and said, "What are your plans for the day?"

Lu Boyun got the clue and he left the dining hall to go to the kitchen, leaving the two of them alone. 

"I have to complete the tasks that the doctor has asked me to do," he replied wiping his face with a napkin. 

"Hmm…" Feng Xinying looked pensive. After a moment she said, "You were talking about Yini when you were discharged from the hospital. I want to hear more about her." 

Xie Yuansheng smiled at the name Yini. He pondered as to what exactly he dreamt about her and poured each detail about it. "I used to see her running around with wet mud clung to her feet and hands. She was such a fool that she had to be taken care of very nicely. Often I had to stop doing what I was doing and had to give her a shower. She teased me a lot. She would call my name and then run away to hide behind the mist that I was always surrounded with." 

"So you remember where she came from? Do you remember her house?" goaded Feng Xinying. "We can go there and find more about her." She wanted to walk down the memory lane with him and bring him back to the present where she was now. She was his Yini - she wanted him to realize that. 

Xie Yuansheng shook his head. "The only thing I remember is her backyard where we used to play a lot…" 

Feng Xinying took his large hand in her small ones and covered them warmly. "I am planning to take you to a psychiatrist. I have heard that one of the best ways to remember things was through hypnotism treatment. Would you be interested in that? The psychiatrist will help you in remembering where Yini stayed."  

Xie Yuansheng melted the moment she took his hands in hers. "Yes, I will go wherever you want me to," he replied with a warm smile that reached from his heart to his eyes and to her heart. 'She is helping me so much," he thought. 'Will I ever be able to repay?'
