Reward or Punishment? (2-in-1)

"How are you feeling? Does it still hurt?" After the little girl left, Jada sat down beside Ren, her expression full of concern. She gently touched the bandage wrapped around Ren's head.

"Sigh, it hurts a little," Ren said, showing a pained expression. Then, he looked at Jada with puppy eyes. "If someone kissed me right now, it would feel a lot better."

Jada's legs gently swung as she leaned slightly towards the door, looking out for a moment, then turned back towards Ren.

Ren suddenly felt a pair of soft hands on his face, followed by warm breath, light and ticklish, like a warm spring breeze in the forest.

Jada leaned in, and her soft, red lips gently pressed against Ren's intentionally puckered lips. The touch was soft and sweet, with a fragrant scent.

Despite being nearly thirty, she still seemed like a young woman in her twenties.

"Really, just like a child," Jada said, straightening up. A delicate, translucent thread connected their lips, and her face blushed slightly.

Because this guy had just pushed in!

Ren chuckled, sucked in the thread, and then changed the topic to distract Jada. "Did you find a new assistant?"

"Yes, your students are helping with the selection," Jada knew Ren was trying to change the subject. She gave him a reproachful look, then adjusted his pillow to make him more comfortable. "But why are you worrying about work when you're like this? I'm here, so don't worry. You've already drawn the storyboards. If they still need your help, I might as well close the company."

Even though the doctor said there was nothing serious, Jada still didn't want Ren to move around.

It was a good time for him to rest. Since getting together, Ren had been helping her grow the company.

"Are you hungry?" Jada asked softly, smiling. "I can get you something to eat."

Ren's body trembled at these words, and he looked at Jada with disbelief.

He only had a mild concussion and soft tissue injuries. Was there a need to be so ruthless?

"Are you... trying to poison me?" Ren mumbled.

Jada was momentarily stunned by his muttering.

What did he mean by that? How was she poisoning him?

After a few seconds of thought, she realized what he meant.

"I'll order takeout for you, not cook myself!" she said angrily.

"Oh, that's good," Ren exhaled in relief.

After all, Jada's cooking was quite unique.

Ren had no idea how she managed it.

He had watched her cook step by step, and everything seemed right, but the final dish tasted like he could see the grim reaper.

Even Little White, the family dog, would run away when Jada cooked.

When a dog that eats anything refuses, you know there's a problem.

Ren thought that making food this bad was a talent in itself.

Seeing Ren's relieved expression, like he had narrowly escaped death, Jada's anger flared.

What did he mean by that?

She knew her cooking was bad, but was it necessary to act like her food was poison?

"I..."

"I..."

Jada's face turned red with a mix of anger and embarrassment. She stuttered but couldn't find a way to deal with Ren.

Hit him? She couldn't bring herself to do it, and hitting him would hurt her heart more than it would hurt him.

Ignore him? That wouldn't work either. He could play on his phone all day and wouldn't care.

Cut off his allowance? That wouldn't work either. He usually spent his allowance on snacks, and if he ran out of money, he would just steal his daughter's snacks.

After thinking it over, Jada realized she had no effective way to deal with this annoying man.

Suddenly, an idea struck her.

With a determined look, Jada left Ren's room, leaving him confused.

As a Pisces with a strong sixth sense, he felt something ominous was about to happen.

Jada went to Ren's game room and stared at a box, contemplating.

She hesitated, wondering if she should use a punishment that men fear.

But remembering Ren's expression when he talked about her cooking made her angrier.

In TV shows, men ate their wives' bad cooking and praised it. Why couldn't Ren do the same?

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got.

Finally, Jada decided to go through with the punishment.

But first...

Jada checked on their daughter to make sure she was asleep, then returned to the game room.

What she was about to do wasn't something the child should see.

A moment later, Jada walked back to Ren's room.

Ren waited anxiously, sensing something bad coming from Jada.

The bedroom door slowly opened, and in walked a stunning beauty.

She had smooth black hair that seemed to draw Ren's gaze like a bottomless abyss.

She wore a pure black maid outfit that highlighted her tall and graceful figure.

Her long legs were wrapped in white stockings with garters.

Seeing Ren on the bed, the maid blushed, bit her lip, smiled gently, and bowed respectfully to Ren.

"I'm sorry to disturb you, master," she said softly. "Would you like to eat first, take a bath, or..."

Ren instinctively covered his nose, feeling a nosebleed coming on. His lower body reacted, pitching a tent under the blanket.

----------

Ren covered his nose, looking a bit stunned. What was this? A maid outfit! He had mentioned playing dress-up to his wife before, like wearing maid or nurse outfits, and even bought some costumes. But each time he brought it up, she would reject him with an eye roll and a pinch on his waist.

But today, she was actually wearing his favorite maid outfit!

Oh, heavens and earth, which fairy sister did such a good deed?

Did love come so unexpectedly?

But... Ren was also a bit confused.

Was it his left eyelid twitching for good luck, or his right eyelid twitching for bad luck? His right eyelid was twitching.

He initially thought Jada was mad because of what he said earlier, but that didn't seem to be the case! If she was mad, would she wear this outfit? This was a reward!

As Ren looked dumbfounded, Jada felt a bit embarrassed.

The skirt was too short!

She felt that if she stretched a bit, the skirt would lift and expose her underwear.

But seeing Ren's wide-eyed, drooling expression, Jada felt a little pleased.

After all, many women nearing thirty feared their men would find them unattractive...

No, wait!

Jada quickly shook her head. She was still in her twenties, in her prime, not nearing thirty!

Thinking of this, she bit her lip, took a deep breath, and decided to teach this clueless man a lesson first!

She took a step closer to Ren's bed.

"Click-clack, click-clack."

With the sound of her high heels hitting the floor, Jada drew closer to Ren. Her long legs, clad in white stockings, trembled slightly with each step, and her short skirt swayed, revealing the black lace-edged underwear underneath.

Although Ren had seen Jada without underwear before, for some reason, this look attracted him even more. He wanted to blow on the skirt and lift it completely.

Just like many men who have seen countless films, but when a woman in front of them reveals her underwear, their eyes widen, wanting to imprint the image in their minds. This kind of teasing appearance was most appealing to "lusty men"! Hence the saying, "half-hidden face behind a lute."

Ren swallowed hard as Jada approached. Despite having seen countless films, the sight of this in real life was overwhelming.

Look at those legs, he thought, I could play with them forever!

He already imagined what would happen next.

Like this, then like that? And finally like this? For five or six hours, maybe even longer?

Jada could see the heat in Ren's eyes. His gaze seemed to melt her clothes away.

Instantly, her face flushed, the redness spreading to her ears.

"Master, you haven't answered my question yet~"

Jada bit her lip, looking shy. She played with a strand of hair that fell over her chest and softly said, "Do you want to eat first, take a bath, or eat me?"

"Of course, eat you!" Ren immediately reached out to pull Jada onto the bed.

But... Jada quickly turned and dodged, then sneered at him. "But Master, you're not feeling well right now. Just look."

Yes, this was Jada's revenge plan, making him just look. For men, this was torture.

"Look, you can look but not touch. Here, and here, you can only look." From a short distance, Jada extended her leg in white stockings, lifted her skirt slightly, and bent over, giving Ren a glimpse of the twin peaks.

Ren was horrified to see Jada teasing him without letting him touch.

Was she a demon? Why torture him like this?

No wonder his eyelid was twitching earlier; this was what he feared.

He decided that once he recovered, he would buy all sorts of items like whips, black rooms, restraint belts, and candles!

Then he would make marks on her legs!

One hundred of them!!!

"Hmph." Seeing Ren's resentful face, Jada's lips curled in satisfaction.

Serves you right.

Seeing she had made her point, Jada turned to leave. She knew her husband held grudges.

"Wait, don't go! At least let me touch... Ah! It hurts, it hurts!" Ren's voice came from behind her, followed by a cry of pain, making Jada quickly turn around.

Seeing Ren holding his head, Jada panicked and ran over. "Ren, what's wrong?"

As she reached him, Ren suddenly grabbed her arm. With a yelp, he pulled her into his arms, their faces close, only their breaths audible.

"Ha-ha, you can't escape now. I, Ren, have read the Thirty-Six Stratagems," Ren chuckled. "You dared to seduce me~"

He lifted his hand and lightly spanked Jada's bottom.

Although he had done this before, this sudden action made Jada's body tremble and go limp in his arms, glaring at him.

"Ha-ha, little maid, now you know your master's power?" Ren whispered in her ear, making her shiver.

"Power, my foot!" Despite her body's reaction, Jada gritted her teeth and retorted.

"Oh? Not powerful enough?"

Taking advantage of her limp state, Ren turned her around, pressing her onto the bed. He licked his lips, nearly covering her slender body, lifting her chin. "Woman, you've successfully caught my interest."

This bold move made Jada blink in shock, feeling his beast-like gaze.

Danger, Jada, danger!

"Wait... wait, you're still sick!"

"No problem~"

"Yueyue is still here!"

"The soundproofing is good~"

"Creek, creek."

Then came the inexplicable creaking sounds from the room.
