MY UNKNOWN HUSBAND, VOLUME 3 - Season 7 Episode 41

Lexingport City was a prosperous city, divided into five districts. The city couldn’t be explored in a day or two.

Michelle’s plan was to take Leon to the places near her university first, and then she would take him to other places. There was no need to rush since they had plenty of time.

Therefore, she took time telling Leon everything she knew about the places. Every time they walked through a symbolic place, she would tell stories related to it, like a guide. In fact, she even sounded better than a real tour guide.

Leon listened to what she said, and responded to her every once in a while.

It had been more than two hours since they set out in the morning, and that was also how long Michelle had been talking. Leon was afraid that her voice would become hoarse if she continued, but he didn’t have the heart to interrupt her enthusiasm.

Luckily, he caught a glimpse of an ice cream shop, which gave him an idea.

“Michelle, do you want some strawberry ice cream?”

The moment Michelle got up this morning, she told herself that she wouldn’t let anything ruin Leon’s tour, not even food.

Although the weather was nice today and they were walking under the shades of trees, Michelle suddenly felt hot and craved for strawberry ice cream the moment Leon mentioned it.

It was as if she had forgotten all her original plans for today. “I want to eat strawberry ice cream! Where can I buy some? Hmm. Look, over there!”

When Michelle saw the ice cream shop, she almost jumped out of happiness, like an excited kid. “Leon, you just wait here. I’ll buy some ice cream for the two of us. What flavor do you want? Chocolate? Matcha? Mango? Or do you also like strawberry like I do?”

“By the time you get here, the ice cream will have already melted. So it’s better if we go together.” After saying this, Leon walked towards the shop, while Michelle trotted behind.

They were greeted by the shop assistant when they walked in. Michelle smiled back, while Leon went straight to the counter to order. “Two cups of ice cream, one strawberry and the other chocolate.”

“Okay, wait a moment.”

When the shop assistant turned around, Leon decided to pay. However, Michelle had already walked up and scanned the code before he could do it.

“Leon, let me pay for it.” After successfully paying the bill, Michelle looked at him and smiled.

“Okay.” Upon remembering that the money he had on his WeChat account was also Michelle’s, he didn’t bother to refuse anymore.

For now, he would enjoy the feeling of being supported. It was wonderful!

“Miss, we have paid the bill.” The shop assistant smiled at Michelle after hearing this, and then handed the ice cream to them.

Coincidentally, Leon’s eyes fell on the screen just before Michelle pressed the button to turn it off. Therefore, he caught a glimpse of her new nickname.

“Your strawberry ice cream.”

“Ah, strawberry ice cream.” After putting away her phone, Michelle took the ice cream over and put a spoonful of strawberry ice cream in her mouth. “It’s so delicious!”

The two walked out of the shop and resumed their tour around the city. Michelle was busy eating her ice cream when Leon suddenly said, “I saw your new WeChat nickname.”

He wondered if it was because she changed it because of what he had said.

“Yes,” Michelle answered with ice cream still in her mouth. “Yes, I’ve changed it to Small Michelle, because my friends said I’m small.” For a split second, Leon felt disappointed. It turned out that she changed it not because he said she was small, but because her roommates said so.

Didn’t she say that Leon was the most important person to her?

Why couldn’t he compare with her roommates?
At the thought of this, Leon was stunned. Why was he thinking this way? It was not as if he owned Michelle. Of course, Michelle had other people to get along with.

Therefore, Leon shook off his thought. As soon as he came back to his senses, he said, “You’re indeed small.”

Michelle stopped eating ice cream. She looked down at her chest before asking, “Do you also think I’m small?”

With a small smile, Leon put his hand on her head. She was indeed a little short, and had a baby face. People who didn’t know her could even think she was just a high school student. “A lot smaller than me.”

“Smaller than you? Huh? What?” Shock was written all over Michelle’s face. Her lips were slightly parted as she stared at Leon.

‘Does Leon have boobs? I thought only girls have them?

Is he a transsexual?

No, no, no. He must be talking about chest muscles. People who often exercise have chest muscles.’

Thinking of this, Michelle finally gained back her composure. She shook her head and closed her mouth. Since Leon was walking ahead of her, she had the chance to observe him. He was tall and thin, so she had never thought that he had strong chest or abdominal muscles.

“What does his chest muscles look like?” Michelle murmured to herself. The astonishment she felt earlier was replaced with curiosity.

At this moment, she wanted to take off Leon’s clothes to see if his breasts were really bigger than hers.

When Leon realized that she wasn’t following him, he stopped and looked back, only to find her walking with her head down. He didn’t know what was on her mind.

He didn’t make a sound either. As she continued to walk with her head down, her forehead hit his chest.

Maybe it was because Leon learned boxing and worked out every day that he stood motionless even after Michelle’s head hit his chest.

The first thought that came in to Michelle’s mind was she bumped into a big tree. Tears welled up in her eyes as she staggered back.

Out of instinct, Leon held her wrists. His slender fingers touched her snow-white skin, which felt tender and soft against his rough hands.

The ice cream in their hands fell to the ground when he pulled her into his arms.

Bumping into his broad chest, Michelle accidentally sprained her right ankle. It was painful, but her attention was diverted to the smell that lingered in her nose.

It was a fragrance she had never smelled before, but she liked it. The sound of his heartbeat echoed in her ears; it was quiet and rhythmic.

However, it didn’t last long before it was disturbed. For whatever reason, her heart was hammering in her chest.

It seemed that her heart was about to jump out.

Michelle stepped back and covered her mouth in horror.

The only time she had encountered such a situation was when she was told that Nina fell into the water and died. But at that time, her heart was thumping because she was terrified. It was painful that she almost lost her breath. But now it was different. It was a strange feeling that she couldn’t describe.

This time, it wasn’t terrifying. It was foreign, yet amazing that it made her cheeks turned red. Her heart was pounding, and she felt as though it would jump out if she didn’t cover her mouth.
When Michelle covered her mouth, she covered her nose and kept gasping. The heat swept over her palm and her face felt hot.

“What’s wrong? Were you scared?” Seeing her like this, Leon thought she must have been frightened.

To his confusion, Michelle nodded and then shook her head. She was standing too close to him, so every time she nodded or shook her head, her hair would touch his clothes.

It was summer, so Leon was only wearing thin clothes. He stepped back and tried to take her hand off from her mouth. “Why are you covering your mouth? Do I stink?”

“No.” Michelle shook he head, stopping him from pulling her hand down. She used all her strength to keep her hand on her mouth. “You smell good. I’ve never smelled it before.”

“Then why are you covering your nose and your mouth?” Although she denied it, Leon still thought that she had smelled something awful in him that made her cover her nose. Thinking of it made him feel ashamed.

Instinctively, Leon raised his arm and smelled himself. But there was nothing strange. He still smelled like the same incense he put in his closet.

“My heart is beating so fast. I’m afraid it will jump out.” Slowly, Michelle felt her heart finally recovering, and her face coming back to its original color.

It was the first time that Leon had heard such an explanation, so he didn’t know how to react. All he could do was sigh as he looked at her face. “It seems that you really got scared. It’s my fault, I should’ve called your attention.” With an apologetic look in his eyes, Leon touched her head to comfort her. “I’m sorry, Michelle.” When Michelle calmed down, she put down her hand and took a deep breath. “No, no. It’s my fault. I wasn’t looking at where I was walking. That’s why I bumped into you. Leon, did I hurt you?”

“No, I’m fine. But you, does your forehead hurt?” Leon gently stretched out his hand and gently rubbed her reddish skin with his fingers.

The warmth and softness of his fingers really dispelled the pain on her forehead, but it caused her heart to beat wildly again.

She must be sick.

It seemed like she was having a heart attack.
