Chapter 34 - King of a husband

"Tranquilizers?"

"Yes angel, I prefer to incapacitate instead of killing my enemies. That way I can find out what they're after and who's behind any plot against me." Shen boasted to gain praise from his wife.

Lina: "..."

Shen saw her nonchalant, vacant expression and continued boasting, his nose in the air.

"Everyone bows down to your king of a husband! You must have forgotten, but my presence is so dominating, even the most powerful CEO's and world leaders fall to their knees."

Lina: "..."

"Lina, you don't yet understand the greatness you are blessed to be married to-"

With that sentence, his little bunny-wife let out a loud and bored yawn.

"Can we go home now, I have work to finish."

Lina didn't wait for an answer, but instead turned around and stepped over the heavy broken door, with the destroyed security systems and walked straight out.

Downstairs at the reception, the building was a mess. Almost 40 of Shen's office security, lay injured on the ground and the receptionists shivered as they saw Lina walk out with their boss half undressed running after her.

He was shocked at the mess Lina had caused downstairs. Nobody knew that this woman was his wife and she had apparently used brute force to fight her way up to him.

As Lina casually walked out of the building, Shen called to a receptionist and asked him to get a new security system to his office installed by the next morning.

The poor receptionist looked at his injured companions with tears in his eyes.

"Again?!" he whispered to his pitiful colleagues.

"Who is that miss?! Every time she comes in here, the office gets destroyed!"

Another employee also commented on the scene.

"She must be close to the boss! He has never looked so fl.u.s.tered around anyone!"

"Yes yes, did you see how he was running to keep up with that miss?!"

"She sure is beautiful, no wonder boss is running after her!"

The whispers continued long after Lina got into one of the cars she drove at top speed to the Moshi Corp offices.

"Uh baby...why did you choose to drive the Lambo?"

The beautiful sleek black Lamborghini belonged to Lina. He hadn't actually informed her that she could drive, or that this particular sports car belonged to her.

For a low key woman, she had flashy taste in cars. Even though she liked them in darker colours, she needed them to be fast and expensive.

She looked at him innocently, as if she was caught with her hand in the cookie jar.

"Why? Am I not supposed to use this car? I really like it..."

The last sentence faded off, as she looked sadly at the steering.

"Actually you're the one who bought it. It's funny that your tastes haven't changed at all!"

Shen laughed at her how sweet and small she looked seated in the driver's side.

Any little bit of anxiety he had about her driving disappeared when she sped out of the driveway like an F1 pro. This woman was way too badass. He was proud of his wife.

As they drove past the beautiful city lights, as they did on the first day she woke up, Lina felt her hand automatically move over and hold Shen's.

She didn't consciously do it, but it just seemed routine to drive along, holding hands as the beautiful lights twinkled around them.

For a moment, Shen was speechless. There had been an emptiness in his heart as Lina had gazed upon the city like she saw it for the first time when he had brought her back from the recuperation villa. But suddenly his faith in their relationship was renewed.

Her instincts remembered certain things about them, the small things that just felt right.

"Baby, next time, please don't injure so many of my employees...it decreases efficiency, you know?"

He decided to casually slip the topic of her violent tendencies into the conversation.

Bad move.

The Lamborghini suddenly braked hard, as Lina pulled over. Shen was almost thrown.

"Excuse me!? I was worried sick, and you're telling me not to hurt your people?!"

Lina was aghast. Once again, she had come running to care about this husband's sorry ass because of her inexplicable anxiety, and he was sitting there acting pricey?

"Well..."

"What do you mean 'well'?! You said 30 mins and you took an hour! You could have been killed in that hour! And your stupid employees weren't even letting me go to see you even though I told them you knew me very well and wouldn't mind if I went to your office."

As Lina finished her sentence, her eyes were brimming.

So what? He was only half an hour late...he could have just gotten caught up with more work. She couldn't understand her own actions and that frustrated her!

But Shen knew there were certain things she herself couldn't comprehend. He pulled her close and stroked her head, trying to keep her calm.

"Look angel, I'm here holding you and I'm perfectly fine aren't I?"

It worked like a charm. Every time he cradled the girl, she would breathe freely again.

"Ok then, stupid hubby, stop complaining. I'm sure you provide your employees with the best health insurance. Aren't you, after all, a king?"

Shen: "....."

Cheeky wife!
