My Aloof Husband, Mr. Drexler, Dotes Me Excessively-Chapter 229: Lured Away by a Glowing Bug?

She seemed dissatisfied with the story he just told her?

The man’s soul-searching question left Summer Shawcross stunned... 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Though she really wanted to praise his storytelling against her conscience... her inner sense of honesty stopped her from speaking.

After all... the segment he just told lacked any sense of imagery, and it stirred great discomfort within her.

So she could only tell the truth...

"Uh..." She nodded her head.

The man’s face darkened visibly.

Seeing this, Summer Shawcross felt uneasy. To avoid upsetting him, she quickly tried to explain.

"Actually... it’s not that bad..." She laughed awkwardly, her survival instincts betraying her own conscience...

However, the man’s expression did not improve, and he instead asked her in a low voice with furrowed brows.

"Very bad?"

Uh... isn’t it bad?

Summer remained silent, but could only maintain a smile as she continued to explain to him.

"Not really, what I mean is... the story is a bit too simplified..."

"Simplification isn’t good?" Noah Drexler frowned, asking her somewhat displeased.

He was accustomed to working with the most efficient and streamlined plans.

In the shortest time, knowing the story’s process—isn’t that good?

Facing his questioning, Summer Shawcross felt helpless, but had to brace herself to explain to him.

"Some aspects are good to simplify, but for some things, more embellishment is needed. Just like telling a story... Along with narrating the plot, you should use some descriptive words to help the listener visualize the story..."

After hearing her words, Noah Drexler’s expression improved slightly. He furrowed his brows, seemingly pondering something.

Seeing this, Summer Shawcross finally breathed a sigh of relief. At that moment, she noticed a tiny point of light emitting a faint golden glow flying past her, eventually landing on the lawn ahead.

She paused, looking at the light spot with some delight...

The man behind her, after pondering with a lowered head for a while, suddenly spoke again.

"Once upon a time..."

"It’s a firefly!" Summer Shawcross exclaimed in delight, rising from the swing and chasing after that light spot.

Noah Drexler’s voice halted, and his handsome face froze.

Looking at the woman who was happily crouched down in the distance, watching something, his face was filled with displeasure!

As he searched through his mind for numerous words, intending to continue telling her the story, she was... lured away by a glowing bug?

Thinking about this, the man’s expression turned even darker...

...

Summer Shawcross didn’t notice the man’s expression behind her. Instead, she was bent over, staring at the faint yet pretty glow resting in the grass, her face full of treasure-like joy, simply squatting and watching, without reaching out to touch it. Because fireflies are fragile.

Footsteps sounded in her ears, and Summer Shawcross didn’t need to look up to know Noah Drexler was there.

"I thought... these bugs might be extinct already, didn’t expect... to still be able to see them." She said to Noah Drexler, looking delightedly at the firefly.

She hadn’t seen these beautiful bugs in years.

Because when she was seven or eight, Narsus City’s economy had already entered a period of rapid development, with skyscrapers and large malls springing up everywhere, disrupting a lot of natural resources.
