Chapter 926: I’ve Missed You

She stared at him and asked, “How are you feeling?”
Mubai smirked. “I’m fine now, sorry for making you worry.”
“It’s nothing, as long as you’re fine.” Xinghe smiled. Her smile was like flowers breaking through the first frost in spring. Mubai’s eyes suddenly darkened. He extended his tapered fingers to lightly pinch her chin and lifted it up. The next second, he went in to kiss and lick her neck…
Xinghe’s pupils shuddered!
Her neck was her sensitive spot; she felt lost and anxious as he rained down kisses on her skin there. Mubai seemed to sense her anxiety because he suddenly stopped and pulled her in for a hug. Embraced in his powerful arms, Xinghe finally felt her feet landing on solid ground again.
“I’ve missed you these past few days,” Mubai breathed out as he buried his face into her neck. Xinghe could feel his warm breath tickling her.
Xinghe hugged him in return and said, “I’ve missed you, too.”
“I really really missed you,” Mubai confessed in a low mumble. “I could barely feel the physical pain because my heart was empty. Without you beside me, it felt like my heart was emptied, like it was no longer mine.”
Xinghe’s eyes glistened; this was the first time Mubai had exposed his fragile and emotional self to her.
Mubai suddenly released her and asked as he stared into her eyes, “Xinghe, what do you want?”
“Huh?”
Mubai’s gaze deepened. “Tell me what you want, and I will give it to you.”
Xinghe laughed in spite of everything. “I already have more than enough.”
“I heard you have been appointed the new ambassador. I saw you appear on television earlier,” Mubai commented. Xinghe noticed there was indeed a television in the room.
Xinghe nodded. “Yes, I was just appointed today. The aim is to unearth this conspiracy.”
Mubai smiled wickedly. “I know you are perfect for this post; you have impressed everyone. What happened when I was out? Tell me everything.”
“Okay, but we can do that later. Go pack your things first.” Xinghe had also learnt how to discuss conditions with him.
Mubai kissed her lightly on her forehead and said in a pampered voice, “Your wish is my command.”
Xinghe knew he had been avoiding kissing her on the lips because he was afraid to pass the virus to her, but he had been cured and she did not mind it.
Just as Mubai turned, Xinghe suddenly pulled his arm. The man turned around in confusion as Xinghe’s soft lips came up to him. Mubai did not evade and stared with his pupils greatly dilating as the woman of his dreams came forward to kiss him on his lips—
Xinghe retreated after a short peck and said as naturally as she could, “Go freshen up, I will wait…”
She could not finish because her mouth was already otherwise occupied!
…
Everyone was glad that Mubai was feeling better. After a shower and a new suit, he looked ready take on the world; he had to return to the image of the king dominating the business world.
Sam and the rest had not seen him for days as well. Suddenly seeing him again, they were shocked to realize they’d actually missed him… that awareness made the hair on their arms rise.
Along the way home, the few of them kept him updated on the things that had happened recently.
Mubai’s gaze hardened and he said, “In other words, some party is cooking a giant conspiracy?”
Xinghe was surprised he would come to this conclusion with just a few details given by Sam and the rest.
