Chapter 1246 - Like Husband Wife
Lu Lian came out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe. The moment she closed the door behind, all the confidence she showed while being inside the bathroom disappeared in a moment and she stood up closing her eyes, and exhaled out to calm herself down. She had to act tough in front of him to not let him dominate her when he didn't remember her. There was no way she would let him ignore her or play with her the way he wanted. She had to take control until he got his memories back.
Lu Lian went to get her bag which she kept on the table when she came to the room and dialed Ming Lan's number.
"Can you get your clothes and undergarments for me?" Lu Lian said and hung up the call after getting a reply from her friend, Ming Lan. She then called for the doctor to change the cast on Ming Rusheng's hand.
Lu Lian stood up in front of the mirror and started to blow dry her hair as in a while Ming Lan appeared there and knocked on the door. Lu Lian opened the door and Ming Lan observed her in a bathrobe.
"Don't tell me you took advantage of my brother," Ming Lan teased as she smiled teasingly.
"I spared him today, but don't worry, next time I will make sure to eat him whole," Lu Lian replied and got the clothes from Ming Lan.
"Enjoy the treat. My brother is highly edible," Ming Lan said and turned to leave.
Lu Lian was about to close the door, Ming Lan stopped and turned back, "Once you are done, come to my room. I have something to tell you."
Lu Lian nodded and Ming Lan left. Closing the door, Lu Lian turned only to see Ming Rusheng coming out of the bathroom in a white bathrobe.
She turned to her cold and dominating self and said, "Sit here. I will help you dry your hair."
Ming Rusheng quietly sat on the chair and Lu Lian stood behind him to dry his hair as she held the blow dryer in one hand and her other hand worked on his hair. Through the mirror, Ming Rusheng stared at her, who was busy with her work. His eyes didn't leave her for even a moment. Once she was done, she looked at him through the mirror, only to find him staring back at her.
Not feeling affected by it, she informed, "It's done," and went to the wardrobe to get his clothes.
"Anything particular that you want to wear?" she asked while looking into his wardrobe full of clothes.
"Anything comfortable to wear at home," he replied, standing in front of the mirror and setting his hair.
Lu Lian pulled out a warm T-shirt and pants, "How about this?"
Ming Rusheng looked at what she was holding and replied, "Will do."
suddenly he was obedient and everything felt like they were already a husband and wife. 'This woman, she sure knows how to control me. I can't help but listen to her.'
Lu Lian put the clothes on the bed and Ming Rusheng went to wear them while she returned to the mirror to set her own hair. Moreover, she needed a reason to stay away from him when he was wearing clothes and she couldn't go out of the room in a bathrobe.
"I hope you won't mind me changing clothes here?" Ming Rusheng asked while removing his bathrobe.
"It's your room. Do whatever you want. If you are too shy to change clothes in front of me, I can't do anything about it. I can't go out of the room in this bathrobe," she countered.
"Shy and me?" he chuckled, "I was worried you might get seduced seeing me without clothes...."
"I am seduced even when you are covered in clothes. Your presence alone is enough to seduce me. You are fortunate that I am good at holding back," she replied casually and continued to set her hair.
Ming Rusheng continued to change his clothes and chuckled, "I can't believe I had ever fallen for such a bold woman."
"Only a bold woman can handle a horny man like you," came one more bold reply from her.
"If you continue to act like this, you will surely see how horny I can be."
"I will wait for it but first get your memories back," she said and went towards the bed where she had kept her clothes, "I am changing clothes."
"So," he asked.
"Nothing," she removed the knot of her bathrobe to take it off while Ming Rusheng went away towards his work table where he still had that blueprint open. Lu Lian smiled as she had already expected him to go away when she would start changing her clothes.
'Still a gentleman!'
Not looking at her even once as if she didn't exist in his room. Ming Rusheng rolled the blueprint back and put it back inside.
Once she was done, Lu Lian checked the time and wondered why the doctor was not there. Just then Lu Lian's cellphone rang. It was Ming Lan. Lu Lian picked up the call and heard, "If you two are done, take some time off from your honeymoon and come downstairs. The doctor is here."
Lu Lian hung up the call and informed Ming Rusheng to go downstairs.

Meanwhile, in the living room, Ming Lan hung up the call after informing Lu Lian. Everyone present there heard what Ming Lan said.
Zhang Jei gave her daughter a narrowed-eyed look, "Since when have you learned to talk this boldly in front of everyone?"
"Mother, when you see Lan, you will understand why I said it," she replied.
"But still you should not…."
"Zhang Jei, don't scold her. If she won't tease her sister-in-law then who will," Elder Ming interrupted.
Ming Lan looked at her grandpa, "Only grandpa can understand me."
Elder Ming smiled at her, "Soon you will be the same as Lian after your marriage. So be ready to get teased."
"I know Liwei. She is a sweet girl. She won't…." Ming Lan suddenly stopped as she sensed how everyone was looking at her. "Ah...I mean...if…" she felt speechless and the elder Ming Laughed, "Good to know you are seriously thinking about Wen's proposal.. We will talk to them today."
