My Wife is a Goddess: 99 Secret Kisses

Chapter 74 GOING TO B CITY PART 9

Su Fengfei protested, "If you start showing her around your property, there will be no end to it." He already lost his Go partner. Now that he got another one, his grandson was trying to snatch her away as well.

"Speaking of which," Xue Lin looked up to Ge Chen and continued, "I didn’t see your mother’s photo anywhere."

Gu Xiali and Su Fengfei paused and looked at Xue Lin. They avoided talking about their daughter in front of Ge Chen knowing that it might hurt him.

Ge Chen put down his cup on the table and calmly said, "Let me show you." He stood up and waited for her. Xue Lin didn’t think that he would agree right away. She also put down the cup and stood up. They both walked inside.

Ge Chen took her to his study room. He only allows the Head Butler Ru Shan to enter here and no one else. But from now on, he will allow his wife.

He locked the door after Xue Lin entered. This large room was different from the other rooms in the house. Right across the room was a huge window spanning from the ceiling to the ground. Coffee colored curtains were covering half of the windows. The sunlight was enough to illuminate the whole room. The room was covered in wood and well handcrafted. All the wooden furniture was custom made and the design was complicated. There was a huge study table on the left side. Behind that had a wall-attached bookshelf. Other than books, there were a few photo frames with Ge Chen’s childhood photos with her family and friends. He had pictures of his military days along with Mu Liang and Mu Feng. Other than that, there were some trophies he won. On the right side, there was a fireplace and couches around it. In the middle, there was a tea table.

Above the fireplace, there was a portrait of a beautiful woman. She had a delicate body, inky black hair, pink lips, sharp nose, long eyelashes, and a pair of grey eyes. There was a faint smile hanging on her lips.

Xue Lin was looking at her in a daze. Ge Chen walked behind her and asked softly, "What do you think?"

She finally came back to her senses and answered, "...Chen, you look just like her." She had hardly seen such a calm, elegant, gorgeous, and caring woman. The moment she landed her eyes on the photo, she knew that woman was pure and honest. She was used to thinking her friend Mu Lan as more beautiful, Qi Ying as more elegant and Yan Su as more gorgeous but Su Yin’s photo made her change her mind.

Ge Chen took her hand and squeezed it gently. "I have something else to show you. Come with me." He led her to the left side of the fireplace and moved a decorated flower. Then, a click sound could be heard from behind the wall and the wall moved away.

Xue Lin looked inside and she was awestruck to see the room filled with books, everywhere, every corner. It was bigger than the one she saw in Paris. Ge Chen said, "You will find some antique manuscript as well as some famous calligraphy of different dynasties here. You will get pretty much everything you need. The psychology section is in the middle. This place is all yours."

Xue Lin thought that she might fall for this guy. She couldn’t believe her ears. "Are you sure?"

Ge Chen smiled and said, "I’m pretty sure."

She carefully asked, "You won’t regret it?"

He replied without the slightest hesitation, "I won’t."

"You won’t change your mind and take it away?" Her eyes were glued on the books.

Somehow, he started to feel that the books were getting more attention than him. He was a little envious. Still, he firmly replied, "There is no chance I will do that."

’I must never divorce this guy or I’ll miss these precious books." Xue Lin subconsciously squeezed her husband’s hand to the point Ge Chen had to look at their joined hands.

Ge Chen took her out of the library despite her protest and gave her passport and credit card. "Your passport and credit card arrived yesterday. I wanted to give it to you yesterday but I was tired and it slipped my mind."

"Oh, thank you." Xue Lin took her credit card and passport and checked hem thoroughly. The caged bird finally got the wings but she had no intention of flying away. Her mind was yet to leave the library.

After Ge Chen left to deal with some work, she took out a book on psychology and laid down on the couch of his study room. She opened the book and started reading it.

Ge Chen was done with his work around twelve and he went back to his house. After he was greeted by the Head Butler, he asked, "Where is the Young Mistress?"

"Young Mistress is in your study room, Young Master. I did knock on the door when I took some snacks for her but I heard no response."

"I see..." Ge Chen headed to his study room and found her sleeping on the couch. A thick book was on her chest. She was still holding it. She was tired and no one was in the room. Therefore, she was able to sleep peacefully. Seeing how tired she looked; Ge Chen didn’t bother her. ’Sleep well, my wife.’ He planted a light kiss on her forehead and left her alone. After knowing that she was a light sleeper, he didn’t make a single noise.

By the time she woke up, it was almost evening. She opened her eyes when her stomach growled. She sat up and yawned. She was about to get up when Ge Chen asked, "Are you hungry? I’ll order the head Butler to prepare some food for you."

Xue Lin froze before peeped at him. She stood up and said, "Yes, I need some food."
