Chapter 780 - Tsundere Mr. Mu
He looked down at her slightly blushing face which was the result of her anxiety, then cleared his throat delightedly without answering her.
Xi Xiaye’s brows clustered into a knot. She was not letting him off easily as she shook him harder. “I’m asking you! Not in vain that you what!?”
He chuckled happily and leaned forward. With his eyes fixed on her, his handsome was gentle, and there was even a doting that could not be concealed in his eyes. “Not in vain that I married you.”
“Ugh, how annoying!” Upon hearing that, she shot him a glance unhappily. “I’ve never heard you make a proper confession, Mr. Mu.”
“That’s enough. You’ve given birth to a child now, so why are you still so caught up with these? Isn’t it pretentious?” He was in between laughter and tears as he looked at her, and then he could not help but reach out to pat her head.
“I wonder who it was earlier that swore in front of someone else that I was his only woman. Were you worried that I wouldn’t know you were incorruptible and remained chaste?” When he finished, Xi Xiaye immediately reiterated the words she had heard earlier as an amused smile flashed on her beautiful and elegant face while she watched him quietly.
Upon hearing that, Mu Yuchen’s handsome face immediately blushed. He cleared his throat and started to look left and right as his handsome face tensed immensely as he said very seriously in a lowered voice, “Who said that? Someone of such morality is definitely not me!”
The way he spoke was as if his conversation with Qi Lei earlier had not happened.
Xi Xiaye rolled her eyes at him. “You’re acting dumb!”
He also shot her a look, and then let go of her.
Alright, he would pretend he heard everything and knew nothing. He wondered how this would be used against him in the future.
When Xi Xiaye saw that, she reached out to pull him and said softly, “Okay, pretend I didn’t say anything. I realize you’re becoming more and more tsundere . I know nothing about today’s matter, but I will always be by your side, unmoving… Mmm!”
Initially, she wanted to say a few more kinder things to make him happy, yet before she could finish, his cold and thin lips had come blocking hers. He pulled her up too, and all of his gentleness was delivered to her bit by bit through that one smooth move.
Obviously, she accepted it happily, and even closed her eyes to let him demand as he wished.
He had already been squeezed dry and was weak in rationale. When he was done feeling a few minutes of her sweetness, he finally peeled away painfully. Amidst this crisis, he became upset once again.
When were these days going to end?
He could not hold back anymore!
Nonetheless, Xi Xiaye just panted slightly and watched his sullen face in amusement as she fixed her messy blouse. “Mr. Mu, why do I find that you’re becoming increasingly restless now?”
“How about you try being hungry for half a year?” He shot her a glare unhappily as he fixed her clothes for her.
“Aren’t we the same? Mr. Mu, usually at such a time, men would be most inclined to make mistakes, You must be more alert, and cultivate your moral character,” she said with a smile.
“What a heartless woman!” he softly reprimanded, then hugged her before walking back to the winding corridor.
Xi Xiaye put her hands into his windbreaker pockets as she said, “Right, earlier, I caught up with Qi Lei, and I found that he’s not been doing well recently.”
“Mmm, I heard about that a little. In reality, it seems like he’s never really had it going well for him,” answered Mu Yuchen after a pause.
“His face…” Xi Xiaye probed as she carefully glanced at him.
While Mu Yuchen remained calm as usual, there was a degree of lament in his deep voice. “It was Qi Qiming.”
“How do you know?” Xi Xiaye looked puzzled at him.
His hand around her shoulders tightened. After a while, he answered, “Apart from Qi Qiming, who else dares to do that? Qi Lei isn’t easy. Given the fact that he could make it to today, I more or less admire him too. He’s quite a strong man.”
“Mmm, I think that there’s more to him too. If he could’ve been with you all earlier, you might’ve ended up as good buddies,” Xi Xiaye lamented regretfully. She thought about it, then added, “I hope that he’ll have better days ahead.”
“Being buddies requires fate too. It’s still a good thing being friends though he’s different from Su Chen and Zimo. Although the three of us are buddies that grew up together and we know each other very well, Qi Lei’s different.”
When she heard that, Xi Xiaye nodded. “Mmm, let’s not talk about him anymore. Let him be. If there’s anything we can help with, we will, especially since he’s a pretty good person. Right, speaking of which, isn’t Su Chen going to be visit his father and mother-in-law today?”
Right, he had almost forgotten about this!
With Xi Xiaye’s reminder, Mu Yuchen recalled this matter. He wondered how things were going. Initially, Zhou Zimo was going to accompany him, but Su Chen strongly rejected. He wanted to go into battle single-handedly, and wondered if Ji Zitong’s folks made things hard for him.
He had heard before that Ji Zitong’s old man was not an easy character to handle.
Upon seeing the concern colored between Mu Yuchen’s brows, Xi Xiaye began to worry a little too.
…
The one sharing the same feelings as Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye was obviously Ji Zitong on the other end.
Outside Father Ji’s martial arts center, Ji Zitong was anxiously pacing back and forth while waiting. Her eyes filled with worry. From time to time she looked at the tightly shut front door
They had already been inside for close to an hour now. Why were they not out yet?
Ji Zitong was very clear about her father’s skills, so she could not beat her father many times!
Father Ji was a master at wrestling. He was nimble and vigorous in his movements. Despite having a solid foundation, Su Chen wondered how long had that fellow not trained? Whatever it was, in terms of physical strength, Ji Zitong felt that Su Chen would most likely be defeated by Father Ji.
Ji Zitong secretly hoped that her father would not make things too difficult for Su Chen. After all, no matter what, Su Chen was already her husband in name.
Just as Ji Zitong struggled with her worries, the tightly shut door suddenly opened, and she quickly looked over subconsciously.
Su Chen walked out looking spirited as he flickered the dust on his clothes away and fixed his slightly messy sleeve. He still looked relaxed and elegant as before. The well-ironed suit on him did not look creased at all!
“You… Are you okay? Where’s my father?” Ji Zitong walked up to him!
