Chapter 152: Who Is the Owner of the Body
After tidying up in the bathroom and changing into fresh clothes, Lin Muxi finally walked out slowly.
But before she could even ask her good bro what plans he had for today, he suddenly picked her up and carried her to the big bed in another room to rest.
Lying there in the spacious room, feeling the soft blanket and her good bro’s care, Lin Muxi’s heart felt warm. Especially at such a weak moment, having the person she liked most by her side made her incredibly happy.
She rubbed her small face lightly against the blanket, and soon her cheeks turned a little red. Then she turned her head toward Mo Ziyang and asked softly.
“Um, Mo Ziyang, do we have any plans today?”
Hearing her voice, Mo Ziyang, who was tidying things nearby, raised his eyebrows slightly. He turned to look at his little wife lying on the bed acting cute.
Her adorable look instantly made him give up the idea he had of flicking her forehead.
Her body was already in this condition, and she still didn’t want to rest properly, always thinking about going out to play.
“Sigh…”
Mo Ziyang let out a small sigh. Out of worry, he could only reach out his hand and gently rub her small head.
“Since your period came, just rest for today, okay? You really scared me this morning.”
“…Alright…”
Knowing she couldn’t go out with her good bro today, Lin Muxi felt a bit disappointed. The little head she had lifted slowly fell back down onto the soft pillow.
She had come here to enjoy a holiday with him, but because of her body, all she could do now was lie in bed and sleep. It made her upset.
But that wasn’t even the thing she feared most. For someone who loved food as much as she did, not being able to eat all kinds of delicious seafood by the sea was the cruelest thing.
Ugh… Lin Muxi felt miserable.
No playing, no good food… what kind of vacation was this?
Seeing her looking a little down, Mo Ziyang patted her small head to comfort her.
“Alright, just rest well. Your health is what matters most, you know? I’ll go pack things up.”
“…Okay, I know…”
After settling her in, Mo Ziyang quietly closed the door. Now came the tricky problem, what to do with the dirty clothes Lin Muxi had changed out of and the used bedsheets from the other room.
Mo Ziyang rubbed his forehead. And this big suite didn’t even have its own kitchen, let alone all the different ingredients he used to buy back at home. He couldn’t even cook something for Lin Muxi to help her recover.
Sigh… he had no choice but to call the hotel.
With no other option, Mo Ziyang phoned the hotel’s customer service, asked them to quickly send a cleaner to tidy the room, and then ordered the kitchen to prepare some soup.
Since Mo Ziyang was such a generous guest, the hotel had already looked into his background over the past few days: the eldest young master of the Mo family from the capital.
So instead of being unhappy about his requests, the hotel staff quickly arranged everything he asked for and told him someone would be there within minutes.
He heard that the restaurant in this big hotel is also a star-rated place, and they can even send food directly to the guest room. Mo Ziyang was a little surprised about that.
But this way, he didn’t need to go outside to buy food for Lin Muxi. It was much more convenient.
After putting down the room phone, Mo Ziyang sighed and sat on the sofa. Right now, all he could think about was how to make his little wife feel better. After all, he knew Lin Muxi always had painful periods.
And since they had finally come out on a trip, having this happen while away from home made Mo Ziyang feel uneasy, like he had a heavy stone on his heart.
Maybe he should just take Lin Muxi back to the capital. At least at home, he still had the things he bought last time, and cooking for her there would make him feel more at ease.
Emmm… Mo Ziyang got stuck in his thoughts.
Unable to decide, he thought for a moment, then sent a message to his mother.
[Mo Ziyang: Mom, Lin Muxi suddenly got her period here. Should I just take her back to the capital?]
Before he even left the chat screen, Xu Lanyi had already replied with a “?”
[Xu Lanyi: What did you say?]
[Xu Lanyi: Something this big and you didn’t say it earlier?]
Mo Ziyang was speechless. He had just dealt with this problem, of course he couldn’t have texted his mom the moment he found out. At that moment, he suddenly felt like his mom wasn’t very reliable either.
[Mo Ziyang: Then I’ll book tickets for tomorrow and take Lin Muxi back to the capital?]
[Xu Lanyi: Come back tomorrow or the day after. I’ll arrange for someone to send over some things so Lin Muxi can recover properly.]
[Mo Ziyang: Okay, I’ll book the tickets now.]
[Xu Lanyi: Remember to book first class. If I find out you put Lin Muxi in economy, just wait until your dad teaches you a lesson.]
Holding his phone, Mo Ziyang stared at this message in silence.
Since when did his position in the family fall this low? Where was the loving mom he used to know?
Sigh… after having a daughter-in-law, she forgot about her son.
Mo Ziyang sighed again, sitting there until suddenly, the doorbell rang. One hotel cleaner with a cleaning cart and another waiter carrying the black-bone chicken soup he had ordered. That finally pulled him out of his thoughts.
Wow, that was fast.
It had only been the time of one chat, and they were already here. Mo Ziyang was a little surprised.
He opened the door and saw the cleaner with the cart and the waiter holding the soup. After a quick talk, he learned that the bedsheet definitely couldn’t be used again, so he said he would pay for it. As for the smaller things, he just gave a few words of explanation.
Once everything was arranged and the waiter left, he kept the cleaner in the suite. Then he carried the bowl of chicken soup and slowly opened the door to Lin Muxi’s room.
“Lin Muxi, drink some soup. It’s good for your body right now.”
At this time, Lin Muxi was in the room chatting with Mo Ziyang’s mother, Xu Lanyi. She was still confused about how his mom even knew she got her period today. But when she heard Mo Ziyang’s voice and turned her head, she suddenly understood.
“Oh…”
Slowly coming out from under the blanket, Lin Muxi straightened her small body and looked at her good bro, who was placing the chicken soup by her bedside.
“Does this mean… I can’t eat tasty food for the next few days?”
“What else? Do you really want to lie in bed suffering in pain?”
Mo Ziyang looked at the little one on the bed, who was clearly unhappy, and couldn’t help but laugh. After putting the soup down, he gently tapped her head with his hand.
“Drink the soup. Your body is already weak, and you’re still thinking about spicy and heavy food. You’re really not afraid at all, huh?”
“Hmph, it’s my body. Why should I be afraid? I’ll show it who the real owner of this body is!”
“Alright, if you don’t want to be in so much pain you can’t even walk, then open your mouth and drink the soup. I had the downstairs restaurant make this and send it up, see if it tastes good.”
Mo Ziyang really couldn’t understand what strange things were going on in Lin Muxi’s little head. Helpless but smiling, he held the steaming chicken soup, scooped up a spoonful, and brought it to her lips.
“Open your mouth.”
“Oh…”
The smell of the chicken soup instantly won Lin Muxi over, and she suddenly thought that even if she couldn’t eat spicy or rich food, being able to drink such delicious soup every day wasn’t bad at all.
Adjusting her position slightly, Lin Muxi started drinking spoon by spoon, eating the soup fed by her good bro. Before long, the bowl in Mo Ziyang’s hand was already empty.
He set the bowl aside gently. Seeing that his little wife looked just fine now, he finally felt relieved.
“Good, now just rest. I’ve already bought plane tickets for tomorrow,” Mo Ziyang said softly while rubbing her head.
But this sentence made Lin Muxi suddenly open her eyes wide.
“Eh—? But I haven’t had enough fun yet…” Her pitiful little eyes looked at him, hoping he would change his mind.
After all, they had worked hard to finally go on this trip. If they had to fly back just because she got her period, it would be such a pity.
But Mo Ziyang clearly wasn’t going to agree. Even facing her pleading eyes, he didn’t soften his heart.
“No. First we’ll go back so you can recover. We’ll have plenty of chances to travel later.”
“Ugh… fine…”
Seeing how firm he was, Lin Muxi had no choice but to give up and bury her head back into the blanket. She knew he was doing it for her, but still felt it was such a shame.
When she lay back down, Mo Ziyang leaned over and gave her forehead a light kiss. Then he got ready to leave the room to check how the cleaner was doing and to have the empty bowl taken away.
“Mo Ziyang, aren’t you going to nap with me?”
Just as he picked up the bowl and was about to leave, his little wife called out to him again. Hearing her words, his face instantly showed a satisfied smile.
“I’ll come after I finish tidying up outside.”
After saying that, Mo Ziyang gently closed the door.
