It’s still future Mrs Wu

Lina blow dried her hair until its only just a little damp and went out to the bedroom.

Her entire body went stiff as a log when she saw Henry is inside the room, putting a shirt on. He looked at her when she came out of the bathroom but didn't rush and just leisurely continued getting dressed.

'Those abs..' She shook her head to avoid her line of thoughts.

"Oh, hi. Where will you sleep?" she asked, just to fill the awkward silence.

"Here." He simply replied before walking to the bed, pulling out the tucked duvet so he can get in under the sheets.

"Where will I sleep?" She asked, still puzzled by his response.

"Here." Tapping the space next to him on the bed.

"Uhhhh."

"We've slept together before, Lina." He added patiently, his lips curving to a slight smile.

"That's different. I don't remember most of that." She argued. "By the way, we still haven't discussed that, why did you sleep beside me that night?"

" I wanted to make sure you were okay so I had to stay close to you." Henry said as he got up to move closer to her with a teasing glint in his eyes. "This time I'll make sure you remember."

Lina took a horrified gasp. Henry laughed, and softly flicked Lina's nose as he stood in front of her and promised her.

"Don't worry, baby, we'll just sleep. For tonight. We're not married yet anyway."

Then he looked down towards her clothes, smilingly whispered, "But you know, since were getting married tomorrow…" Wriggling his eyebrows at her.

Lina ran towards the bed and hid under the blanket. "Henry, you! You chose these clothes purposely. Don't you dare touch me!" She said with false bravado.

Still chuckling, Henry went ahead to switch off the main room light. Only the two side table lamps are lit and gives the room a warm glow, making it seems more romantic.

"I didn't choose any of that, though I do enjoy looking at you wearing them. I just told my shopper to buy appropriate clothes for the mountain, including a swimsuit and pajamas." Henry said as he got on the bed too, under the blanket, beside her.

Looking at her, still with a sly smile, though she's hidden by the blanket with only her face showing, "I might give her a bonus with her choices for today."

"Hmmp! She must have bought you a lot of clothes for women then. Tell her next time to get something one size bigger, these are all small on me. Do you like thinner women?" She testily informed him.

"Actually, this is the first time I asked her to buy women's clothes for me. I will make sure of the right size next time, Mrs Wu. You're already making demands and we're not yet married."

She ignored his last comment and said, "Wait, so how did she know what size to buy then? You didn't tell her it's for me, did you?"

This time, Henry, rolled his eyes at her, "You're almost the same height as her, so I told her to get something that will fit her."

"Ahhh..." Before Lina can say more, "Go to sleep Mrs Wu, before you wake up my baser instincts since we're already in bed like this." Henry told her with a soft growl on his voice.

Lina turned to face the other side, pulled the blanket to cover her properly and said, "It's still future Mrs Wu. You still never know if that will happen. Hmp!"

Henry moved so quick that's he's behind Lina, hovering above her so she sees his face clearly before she even realized that he moved. "You will be Mrs Wu come our wedding day, there's no doubt about that so I'd appreciate it if you stop talking like that."

He placed his hand on her face then, lightly caressing it, "I'm sorry if I slept beside you then but I didn't have any bad intentions. I just wanted to make sure you were alright."

"Th- That's alright." Lina replied.

"But you need to get used to this now, because we will never be using separates beds if were in the place after we are married." He kissed cheeks and hugged her from behind.

Lina can't even think of how to respond to it and just let sleep take her away while under the warm embrace of Henry.

Henry was woken up by the sunlight hitting his face directly. He looked towards the wall where the clock is and saw its almost nine o clock in the morning. It's been a while since he had slept in this late. He's usually up at five every morning so he can work out for an hour before starting a crazy day of work. He's usually in the office by seven, even though working hours are officially from eight to five, unless he's got an early meeting elsewhere. And stays well into the evening, usually after nine or ten o clock at night.

He's got two executive assistants in the office to keep up with his work schedule. And his personal assistant, Zhang Yong is there to assist him in day-to-day activities, including those that he can't get to at the moment because of the wedding. He strongly implements a good work life balance to his employees. WuComp's HR department constantly monitors the employees' productivity and working overtime is limited unless deemed necessary. But of course, that does not apply to him. Ever since he started WuComp almost 12 years ago now, he has worked just as hard if not harder than he did before.

Looking down at the beauty cuddled next to him, warm and soft with sleep, he realized he need to start lessening his work load so he can enjoy more of this. They also need to figure out her work given how busy she is.

It has gotten colder as the night deepened; Lina crept closer to him and turned around in her sleep to seek his warmth. 'I need to move to the mountains.' He thought to himself as he hugged Lina closer.

But they have a lot to do, so he nuzzled her neck, her face and her hair like a playful cat to wake her up. Slowly, she opened her eyes and smiled. So pretty!

Muah! Henry just can't help himself, he kissed her lips. "Wake up sleeping beauty, we have to go."

Lina just nodded and went back to sleep.

"Okay, I'll just change your clothes myself then carry you to the car." He loudly told her. He would gladly do it if she allows him to.

"I'm up. I'm up!" Lina hurriedly sat down and groggily made her way to the bathroom.

"Come out when you're ready." he called out and went to the other bedroom where he moved his clothes last night and to use the bathroom. By the time he was ready, the care taker of the house has laid out a light breakfast for them. There is a cabin connected to the main house where they live. He thanked them as they left the dining room.

After a few minutes, Lina came out wearing her dress from yesterday. Due to the morning chill, she brought a small blanket she got from the room and wrapped her shoulders with it.

"Drink the soup while its hot to warm you up." Henry told her which she happily complied.

"I asked Jenny to link your calendar to mine." Henry told her as they ate.

"Okay."

"And I noticed that your current schedule and mine does not match at all, I can only see you after three months after the wedding." Henry continued, looking at her seriously.

"Okay?" Lina said again, saying it like a question, confused on where the conversation is going.

"You don't think there's anything wrong with that?" Henry asked with sharp look in his eyes.

"Umm no." Lina shook her head. "Those were schedules confirmed way before we met each other. What can I do?"

"From now on, I want to approve your schedules before you confirm them." He stated as he went back to eating.

"That's fine. We already confirmed my schedules for the next 2 years. And the team agreed not to accept more beyond that. Of course, if something comes up, it will only be accepted if we can fit it in between so just inform Jenny to run it past you before confirming." She easily agreed.

"I'll do my best and adjust mine then so I can see you sooner." Henry said as they finished eating. "If you're ready, lets head out."

When they were in the car driving back to his house, his phone rang, its Zhang Yong. He picked up the call through the car system so Lina heard the conversation.

"Zhang Yong." Henry answered the call.

"CEO Wu, good morning, I've managed to arrange your schedule. You have 4 days free, and so does Madam Lina."

"Okay, please arrange everything as discussed. Thank you." and dropped the call.

After a few seconds, Lina can't hold on to her curiosity and asked, "What was that?"

"That, my future wife, means we have time to go for our honeymoon."

Lina just nodded her head, as she had completely forgot that honeymoon exists for newlyweds. And stayed quiet but had noisy thoughts in her head for the whole trip back.
