Chapter 286: Gradually Stronger Feelings (2)

Ah Mo smiled and thanked her. When he turned to look, his Master had already picked up a bowl and was elegantly enjoying it. He then stuffed the noodles into his mouth.

Just as the noodles touched his tongue, Ah Mo’s reaction was —

Ugh, so salty!

He reflexively frowned, and could not help but turn to look at his Master, yet his Master was…

With a gulp, Ah Mo gulped. A while after that, he braved himself and continued to pick up the noodles and eat silently. However, after a few torturous bites, he could not handle it anymore. “Missus, do you have juice?”

Xi Xiaye looked at Ah Mo and nodded. “I’ll go get it for you.”

“Aren’t you eating?” Ah Mo asked.

“I’m not hungry. I had tea.”

Xi Xiaye smiled, then she went to get some fruit juice for Ah Mo from the kitchen.

After he quickly finished the meal, Ah Mo went home, and Mu Yuchen went upstairs to shower. When Xi Xiaye was done tidying up and returned to the bedroom, he was just done showering.

Mu Yuchen stood by the bedside and watched her organizing the clothes into the wardrobe. He thought about it and could not help but say, “Missus, your culinary skills seem to have worsened.”

She was busy tidying up the wardrobe when she heard his remark. She stopped what she was doing and turned to him to ask in puzzlement, “Wasn’t it delicious?”

Mu Yuchen’s handsome brows raised. The answer was obvious.

She then frowned. “If it wasn’t good, then why did you two wipe your plates clean?”

Mu Yuchen chuckled without answering. He walked over in a few huge strides and took the clothes in her hands to put on the shelf above them. “Did you go back to Linjiang Apartment today?”

“Mmm, since no one’s living there, I had to tidy it up a little and at the same time, bring some things back.”

As she said this, she turned to walk to the bed and rub her slightly sore shoulders. She recalled the little interlude this evening, then frowned. After thinking about it for a long time, she finally decided to just tell him to avoid mulling over it herself and getting a headache.

“Right, today when I came out of Linjiang Apartment, I bumped into the young master of Qi Kai, Qi Lei. I keep thinking that he’s always acting weird. He’s prejudiced against you. Did you guys have some friction before? But I remember that Glory World and Qi Kai have always been minding each other’s business. Although from the way he speaks, he keeps insinuating a target against you…”

This was how she was like. If she had a doubt, she would just ask frankly. Otherwise, if she kept mulling over it and letting her imagination run wild, it would drain her brain juice dry.

Mu Yuchen walked to the bed and stopped in front of her. Looking down at her from above and seeing her clear eyes ask in such an honest and matter-of-fact manner, his silent eyes flickered a while. That gaze of his was unfathomable…

A while after he asked, “What did he say to you?”

Xi Xiaye sighed and met with his complicated gaze, “Actually, it was nothing. He just said… said there are some unbearable things about you.”

He did not mind and chuckled before he asked, “How did you answer him then?”

“I said that he wasn’t a good person…”

When he heard this, Mu Yuchen chuckled softly and could not help but pat her head, pulling her towards him.

They were silent for a moment, then Xi Xiaye suddenly heard him sigh, “He said that I’m a little unbearable… You don’t seem too happy.”

When he said that, Xiaye immediately answered very certainly, “Well, of course, which woman would want to hear their man be criticized?!”

When she said this, the smile on Mu Yuchen became even more bedazzling now. He hugged her tighter. “Missus, I find that you’re learning how to be protective over me now. I don’t know if I’m a good person or not, but I know that you definitely are.”

“Why?” Xi Xiaye raised her brows and looked at him, bemused.

The smile on Mu Yuchen brimmed with warmth. “Because in my heart, anyone that’s protective over me is a good person.”

“Why do I suddenly find that the way you think is a little dangerous? Is that how you differentiate between good and bad?”

She looked up at him, a little shocked.

He did not object, but he said softly, “That’s the most realistic way of thinking… I really hope that when we’re old and gray, you’ll always be like this. Maybe I’ll be able to live happier. I didn’t marry you for nothing then…”

Xi Xiaye was stunned. Her starry eyes twinkled before she asked, “Since that’s the case, why won’t you tell me about your story? In fact, now it’s I who married you for nothing. You haven’t even sent the betrothal gifts…”

“Didn’t you say we’ll be organizing the wedding on the first of October? And about Qi Kai —”

Before she could finish, he already cut her off as a lonely smile appeared on his face. “He and I have some personal grudges. It’s because of Lingtian and Lingshi… Xiaye, I don’t intentionally keep some things secret from you and a lot of things might happen in the future… but I just wanted to tell you that since you’ve chosen to be with me, even if I hurt myself, I would never hurt you…”

He paused, then suddenly smiled at her. “So, Missus Mu will always be you, no matter what happens in the future. I won’t have any requests. I just hope that you can trust me just as how I will believe you. If you’ve got any questions, you can just ask me. That way, we can take fewer roundabouts, and have more time to enjoy these simple and beautiful times.”

When she heard him say this, she was stunned. She stared at the smile on his face and felt her heart suddenly soften. Hearing him say that he trusted her made her feel immense joy in her heart.

She was suddenly grateful that he had set clear boundaries. With someone as farsighted as him, she kept feeling that she had become much franker too.

If you like it, then go have it. If you hate it, then abandon it!

If the enemy respects me, I’ll respect them. If the enemy attacks me, there will be blood!

They are good people if they are good to you. They are bad if they are bad to you…

However, as she thought about this, why did she feel that she was being badly influenced by him?

She fell silent for a quite while, then looked at him. He nodded gladly too and said softly, “Okay, I will, but now I have something to ask you about.”

“Mmm? What is it?” He comfortably hugged her to sit and answered openly.

Receiving his answer, Xi Xiaye’s beautiful bright face suddenly blushed and she pursed her light pink lips. She stared at him for quite a while, then asked softly, “Do you have that… that thing right now?”

“Hmm? Have what?” Seeing her that way, he raised his handsome brows sneakily as he watched her silently.
