It'll Come Naturally

"Mark, pull the car over." Daisy sighed defeatedly. She finally caved in and admitted that she lost to the man she loved the most.

"Okay, Senior Colonel." Mark slowed down and pulled the car over to the side of the road. He was very slow and cautious because he didn't want to be bumped by the speedy car just right behind them. The moment their car completely stopped, Daisy jumped off the car and leaned against the door. She looked at the crazy man with cold eyes as she wondered about what he was up to.

On the other hand, a playful smile cracked Edward's lips as he turned his car's steering wheel. His tires made a screeching sound against the asphalt before his car stopped precisely behind hers. He quickly got off his car too. "Huh! Senior Colonel Ouyang, just keep running. Why you suddenly stopped? Edward's eyes were burning in anger as he walked towards her. He was trying his best to look calm even though he was actually furious to the hilt.

"If a crazy man is chasing after you in hot pursuit, will you still keep running?" Daisy was also enraged. She wondered if Edward even cared about how dangerous the situation was just now.

"I have no choice. My wife ran away and I can't sit by and just watch her leave," said Edward as he stood before her. Although he was angry, he still cast worried glances at her from head to toes to check if she was hurt during the military drill. "Mark, you may go back first." Daisy didn't want to argue with Edward while Mark was there, so she asked his bodyguard to leave.

"Okay, Senior Colonel." Much as Mark was worried about the two, military orders could not be violated. Thus, he followed Daisy's order again without any resistance at all.

Meanwhile, Edward folded his arms across his chest as he emotionlessly watched the two. He waved at Luke after Mark left to order him to leave too. He would like to see how Daisy would throw a tantrum at him.

Luke was a little hesitant to leave but then he followed what he was ordered. With Daisy around Edward, he wouldn't worry that his young master would be in any danger.

"Do you want to die, Mr. Mu? Do you know how fast your car was just now?" Seeing that there was no one else around them, Daisy fired her questions at him.

"Senior Colonel Ouyang, before chiding me, could you please think of how dangerous it was when your car passed me?" Seriously, Edward had been missing Daisy for so long. The only thing that he wanted to do right now was to embrace her in his arms. However, all his tender thoughts suddenly disappeared upon hearing her harsh accusation.

"We are specially trained soldiers and we know the limit. How could we really put anyone in danger? However, you were already flying with a speedy car. Whom did you want to present your driving skills to?" Despite having many issues with him, Daisy really missed his embrace and wanted to cuddle up against him after a few days of tiring training. How she wished to just do that instead of quarreling with him right now!

"You're worried about me, right?" Edward's face instantly brightened up when he flashed her a warm smile.

"I'm only worried that I will become a widow," answered Daisy coldly. God knew how much she really wanted to slap his smug smile off his face. She just felt that she couldn't get out of his control no matter how hard she tried.

"Senior Colonel Ouyang, stop struggling. Is it that difficult for you to just admit that you are worried about me?" Edward was a bit cooler now because he realized that occasionally being at odds could actually be beneficial to their relationship too.

"Why should I admit something that is untrue?" Yes, it was true that she was worried about him, but she would never let him know. She thought that he would become more arrogant and cockier if he knew this.

"Oh? Really?" Edward smiled casually. He suddenly blurted out in a loud voice, "Ah! I just sprained my waist when I played golf yesterday. How come it suddenly hurts so much?"

"What? Did you sprain your waist? Have you been to Tom's hospital?" Smart as Daisy was, she instantly became restless once Edward turned soft.

"Not yet. I thought it would be okay after applying some ointment." Edward looked discreetly at her with the corner of his eyes. He began to feel delighted upon seeing the worry that spread on Daisy's face.

"Let me check if it hurt your muscles." Daisy didn't even doubt his words. Just like how the saying went, 'Too much anxiety would make people more confused'. Daisy was too concerned with Edward that she lost her judgment and failed to see that he was only faking it. "Do you want to check me right here in the open air? Are you sure?" Edward scanned the place with furrowed eyebrows. Although there were just a few cars passing by, he still thought that it was inappropriate for him to lift his shirt and show his body to the public. He was a gentleman.

"Get into the car. Let me check there." Daisy had completely forgotten that she was mad at him. It was obvious that she didn't really want to get angry at him at all. She was just temporarily upset.

"Okay, be careful!" Edward chuckled and pulled the door open. As long as he could make her get into the car, all the other things could be solved easily.

Daisy got into the car and sat down on the passenger seat. It was only then that she noticed that something was wrong. She saw Edward flexibly bent down when he followed her inside the car. She couldn't believe that she was tricked! However, Edward acted fast upon seeing how her expression changed and quickly locked all the doors with a single click. There was nowhere for her to escape now. "Edward, you cunning man!" accused Daisy angrily. She regretted being careless and falling into his trap.

"Yes, I am cunning. Actually, I am also shameless." Edward didn't mind her mad rebuttal. He had always been a maverick who did things his own way. He really didn't care about manners or morals.

What he said made Daisy pissed off again. It took all her willpower to suppress her urge to shoot him and stop his proud smile.

"You don't feel ashamed at all." In all honesty, Daisy couldn't do anything to this brazen man anymore. Thus, she could only glare at him as she imagined slicing him with her stare.

"There is nothing to be ashamed of when I'm with my wife. Why? Do you hate me?" Edward tried to lighten the atmosphere. He suddenly felt so pathetic. He had waited for her outside the army base for two hours and was not even welcomed properly after. Worse, he even had to put down his dignity and pride in order to make her happy.00000Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
