Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1036

Lina's heart quivered, and she stared at him for a while before asking softly, "You... How did you come here?"

Zuko looked at her, smiling all the while. He had listened to every word she said just now, which made his heart bloom with joy, especially when he heard the frequent mention of "my husband".

However, Lina was startled by his expression. She looked left and right, stood on her tiptoes, and reached out to touch his forehead.

"What are you doing?" Zuko chuckled. "I'm not running a fever!"

"Oh." Lina paused. "I just thought... for someone who usually wears a poker face to suddenly smile like this, they must be up to no good!"

"You..." Zuko glared at her.

Lina could not help but laugh but did not want him to see it. She quickly covered her mouth with her small hand, only to have it grasped by the quick-witted man, who pulled her along as they ran outside the restaurant.

The bustling commercial street of the city was just another street away.

Under the scorching summer sun, the wind in Jangasas was still pleasantly cool, even in the midst of the summer heat. As they ran, the breeze lifted Lina's hair and her bangs, and she laughed as sweetly as a peach.

She held Zuko's hand tightly and looked at his broad shoulders, her face blushing quietly.

The two arrived at the street, and Zuko saw a stall selling cotton candy by the roadside. He bought one and handed it to Lina. Just as Lina was about to take it, he suddenly raised the cotton candy high.

"Hey, you…"

"Do you want it?" Zuko smiled and said, "If you can reach it, then it's yours to eat!"

Lina tiptoed to reach it.

Zuko held the cotton candy up with one hand and pressed down on her small head with the other. "Lina, if your mouth can touch it, then the cotton candy is yours!"

"With my mouth?" asked Lina.

"Of course!" Zuko said seriously, "I have cleanliness issues. If you touch it with your mouth, then I won't eat this cotton candy!"

Lina glared at him like a cat unwilling to admit defeat. She took aim and leaped with all her might!

"Different from what I read in the novels."

Lina blushed like a bleeding cherry.

Zuko analyzed it seriously. "I've read a few romance novels. The kisses between the male and female leads are supposed to be sweet."

"You..." Lina was both shy and embarrassed, punching him with a clenched fist.

"You mean I'm not as sweet as those female leads? Zeke Hamerton, you took advantage of me, and you say something like this. Y-You're too much!"

"I didn't say that."

The more she pouted, the more cheerful Zuko became.

He bent down, his lips gently brushing against her ear, as he hoarsely uttered a few words, "Lina, you are much sweeter than what's written in books!"
