My Wife is a Goddess: 99 Secret Kisses Chapter 71 GOING TO B CITY PART 6

"Everything in here is yours from the moment you married me. You don't have to ask for permission." That's what he said but Xue Lin's expression was different from what he had imagined. She asked him, "Why do I feel like you are trying to give me everything so that you can control me? That will never happen, I'm telling you." Her body stiffened and she moved a little further from him.

"…" Ge Chen was speechless. Whatever he had in his mind, only he himself knew. He never let others know what he was thinking. Though he wasn't thinking of controlling his wife like a puppet, he still wanted her all to himself. He wanted to have her bound to him. Such possessiveness was eating him alive. However, he didn't know how she managed to understood his inner thoughts when he didn't show the slightest bit of possessiveness.

Sitting opposite to them, Louis played guitar and sang a love song. It was the story of a man waiting for his wife to return home. The wife left him because he made lots of mistakes. He realized his mistakes and asked for forgiveness. He had to wait two long years before his wife came back. Unexpectedly she bought their newborn child with her. He didn't know that she was pregnant when she left. He felt guilty and happy at the same time. Louis' voice was of an angel. Ming Yu joined him. Both of their voices synced and the atmosphere became harmonious.

Xue Lin yawned. She liked the song even though the lyrics seemed unrealistic to her. But she couldn't keep her eyes open anymore. She didn't sleep well on the plane. Now that her stomach was full and she tasted red wine, she felt sleepy.

Her husband noticed it and said, "Let's go. You must be tired."

"I can go back on my own." Xue Lin protested. She wanted him to have fun with his friends and didn't want to burden him with husband-wife duties right after she came here.

Ge Chen asked, "Are you sure you can go back without getting lost?"

"If I get lost, I'll ask the servants." Xue Lin yawned again. She covered her mouth with her left hand.

Ge Chen chuckled. "Alright, be careful when you climb the stairs." He didn't know why Xue was acting all guarded up when they are going to be sleeping together from tonight onwards. Did she forget that she was in his territory?

Xue Lin paused before saying, "…I'm not a child." She felt a chill run down her spine.

She didn't feel that way because she thought Ge Chen was threatening her. She had bad luck with stairs. Every year she fell or slipped while climbing stairs up and down. She twisted her ankles multiple times. She even started wearing sneakers but still, she fell from the stairs and hurt herself. When her husband told her to be careful, she thought that he might have known about her accidents. It also meant that he knew about her past.

Xue Lin carefully observed him before standing and left with small steps. Ge Chen's face was unreadable. Maybe he didn't mean anything deep. She sighed in relief. 'As long as he is this way, it's good,' she thought.

The design of the house was simple and so she didn't have a problem finding the bedroom despite having zero sense of direction. She changed her clothes and wore cotton pajamas. After that, she came in front of the bed and rearranged it. She put the pillows to both corners and put two hugging pillows in the middle. She took out another comforter so that they wouldn't have to fight for one comforter all night. Afterward, she blew up the red candles that were still lit. After the bedroom became dark, she finally went to bed and closed her eyes. She fell asleep almost immediately.

She didn't know how long she slept but she woke up when she sensed a sudden movement on the bed. She quickly opened her eyes and saw that Ge Chen changed his clothes to a light blue sleeping gown and came to bed. It was dark but the night sky had its own light that illuminated the bedroom. Xue Lin's night vision was good and she could see him without a problem.

Xue Lin hurriedly sat up, startling Ge Chen. "You aren't asleep yet!?" he said.

Xue Lin was a light sleeper. She wakes up if something goes on around her. Whether it's a little shake or a small sound, she will wake up. However, she didn't say that to him. Secrets make a woman - a woman. She firmly believed that. Furthermore, she still didn't feel comfortable enough to divulge all her secrets to him. She replied, "It's a new place." She blamed it all on the poor house.

"I should have made things comfortable for you." Ge Chen did think of making a few arrangements but seeing how tired she was, he thought it wouldn't be necessary. But how wrong he was.

Xue Lin shook her head. "No, it's okay." Seeing a man by her side in the middle of the night, no matter how tired she was, her sleep flew away through the large window.

Ge Chen looked at the bed and asked, "…Did you change the arrangement of the bed?" He didn't notice it before since the room as dark. Now that he came up, he sensed something was amiss.

Xue Lin replied without any delay, "I did in fact and I want it that way. Is there a problem?" Her tone was hard and straightforward. She sounded like she would go berserk if he answered, "There is a problem".

However, Ge Chen was quite generous. He calmly said, "I don't have a problem as long as you don't fall from here. There is no carpet under the bed. If you fall, you'll get hurt." He simply showed that he was worried about her and nothing more. There was no deep meaning behind his words or any ulterior motive.
