Wife Loving Husband: Husband, spoil me some more!
Chapter 87 First Real Date"Zhan Wei," Mu Yuehan grimaced when he heard Zhan Wei from the mouth of Nian Tian. Again, he urged to tell her about his real identity. He took a deep breath. He decided to test the water before disclosing to her that he was Mu Yuehan, soon-to-be CEO of the Mu empire.
Nian Tian hugged Mu Yuehan from behind and placed her head on his back. "Will we always remain like this?"
Mu Yuehan turned and looked at her slightly saddened face.
"Yes, we will." He answered. "Why? What happened? Why this gloomy expression?"
"I don't know." She shrugged her shoulders. "I just had a thought that you will get busy and will forget about me."
"Forget about you? It will never happen." He hugged her. He then looked down at her with seriousness. "Sweetie, will you leave me if I become a CEO one day?"
"I don't want you to become a CEO." She looked at him with stubbornness.
"Why?"
"Because they are always busy." She sighed. "My mother was a CEO and she was always busy. She rarely had time for me. She tried to attend all my school functions, and parent-teacher meets but she was always late."
There were tears in her eyes. Her voice was heavy. "She then used to take me to an ice-cream parlour as a bribe, to mollify me. She worked all the time, even during the night."

I dreamt of being a CEO but not anymore. I want a life with less burden. Just like this, where we have time for ourselves. We are not busy with our responsibilities as a CEO."
She held on to his hand.
"But what if, I became a CEO?"
Nian Tian looked at him and spoke truthfully. "I will leave you. Instead of spending a life with a workaholic husband, waiting for him all the time, and missing his presence at important events, I will prefer to live alone. I don't want the childhood of my kids like mine where we will need to wait for you to do anything in our day. I don't want them to miss your presence half of the time when growing up."
Looking at her, Mu Yuehan lost all his courage to tell her his identity. He knew she hated the idea of him being a CEO. He'd need to work hard to make her accept his identity as Mu Yuehan.

"Should I pose naked for the painting?" Mu Yuehan teased and looked at Nian Tian.
Today, they have decided that Nian Tian was going to paint Mu Yuehan. Nian Tian was deciding the pose when he gave this dirty idea.
She glared at him. "Do you want me to paint you or not? If yes, then stop giving me such ideas. Stop wasting my time. I have closed my restaurant only because you wanted me to paint you."
"Ok, ok, I will not give you any dirty idea." He raised his hands in surrender. "What about this pose?"
Mu Yuehan wrapped his arms around the teddy that he won in the amusement park. He pouted and looked at Nian Tian with love stuck expression. He looked like a lost puppy, wanting the attention of his lady.
"Perfect." Nian Tian commented. "Now stay in this position."
Nian Tian started to paint him and mind you, Mu Yuehan was the worst model. From time to time, he was saying something or asking for a kiss from her.
"This is my last warning, if you moved another time, I will leave this painting in the middle." She warned him. Mu Yuehan slumped and was again in his pose.
He had thought, it'd be fun to be her model but he didn't realise, that sitting for three hours, without moving, especially when your lady love was sitting across from you, was not easy at all.
"Are you done?" he asked impatiently.
"Nearly." She muttered with a paintbrush between her lips.
"Done." She declared once she was done with the painting.
"Let me see it." Mu Yuehan was by her side in a second. He leaned down and looked at the painting. It looked as if he was looking in the mirror.
She had portrayed all the expressions on his face with so much perfection. He saw himself many times in the mirror with the same expression on his face and he knew what the painting was depicting was the truth.
"Brilliant." He commented.
"You like it?" she placed her hands on his cheeks.

"It's Picasso." She chuckled, correcting him and removed her hands from his cheeks. The next second, her eyes went wide when she noticed the colour stain left on his cheeks. She then looked at her hands.
Mu Yuehan looked at her action and his eyes too went wide with realisation. "You…."
He dipped his hands in the paint palate. Nian Tian stepped back. "It was an accident….ah."
Mu Yuehan applied the paint to her cheeks. Nian Tian looked at him with wide eyes and repeated his actions. And just like that, they were paint fighting like children.
In the end, they fell to the ground, laughing hard. They looked at the faces of each other which were covered with various colours.
They were looking no less than clowns.
Mu Yuehan wrapped his arms around Nian Tian and looked at her with soft eyes. "Let's go on a date."
"Real date?" her eyes brightened with excitement. "With candle and dinner?"
"Kind of." Mu Yuehan chuckled.
"Oh my god, finally. I was waiting for so long, for you to ask me for a date." Nian Tian squealed loudly and hugged him hard.
She could not wait to go on a real date with him.
