Chapter 61 - Is it okay that I am obedient!
“Uh…” Did these two silly husbands really just get countered by me?
Mu Xiaoxiao scowled, appearing as if she couldn't stand it any longer and was refusing to watch her third brother and his partner flaunt their affection in front of their friends.
“Well, I'm heading back now. Seeing any of you is giving me a headache.”
Wanting to avoid lingering, Mu Xiaoxiao began walking toward the elevator.
“Xiaoxiao, aren't you staying with me?” Shang Xiaojie nervously called out to her.
Mu Xiaoxiao didn't even glance back. “If you're staying to keep my third brother's bed warm, I can't be here. To spare my life, I'm better off leaving!” “Since we have a day off tomorrow, it's fine if you spend the night. I'll inform Dad, so that's settled. Just don't go too wild. Goodbye.” She stepped into the elevator, ascending.
Shang Xiaojie blushed once more as Mu Xiaoxiao mentioned him staying behind to warm Mu Sifa's bed. Though he was reluctant to admit it, he knew he would indeed be sharing a bed with Mu Sifa later.
“I… I'm also going back.”
Shang Xiaojie struggled to break free, only just realizing that there was now a significant issue at hand. He was like the little fat lamb willingly walking into the lion's den. Wasn't it dangerous?
“How come you're changing your mind so quickly?” Didn't you just promise to wait until I finish my work?”
Mu Sifa understood Shang Xiaojie's concerns well, and he had no intention of letting him slip away.
“It was just a while ago. Now is the time. I want to return with Xiaoxiao. You… let me go.” Stirring up a fuss in Mu Sifa's arms indicated a desire to leave.
Mu Sifa abruptly grasped Shang Xiaojie's face and positioned it before him, narrowing his gaze. “If you don't obediently listen to me, I might just get carried away.”
Hearing Mu Sifa's words, Shang Xiaojie immediately fell silent. Yet, he avoided looking at Mu Sifa. “You're just trying to intimidate me. I'm truly ignoring you this time.”
Consequently, he truly averted his gaze from Mu Sifa. It seemed that Mu Sifa's veiled threat had unsettled him.
Shang Xiaojie managed to elicit another bout of laughter from Mu Sifa. He playfully pinched Mu Sifa's cheek and said, “Alright, I won't tease you, but you must obediently follow my lead, or else…”
Just as Shang Xiaojie was about to ask what was catching his attention, Mu Sifa's large hand suddenly reached out, causing Shang Xiaojie's face to instantly flush red.
“Hey, what… what are you doing?” Ye Zichen quickly intercepted Mu Sifa's hand, preventing any impulsive action, while his own face turned even redder.
“I can stop, but will you do as I say?” A mischievous glint accompanied the smile.
“I'll obey, I'll obey!” “Just refrain from any odd behavior here.”
In the end, he had no choice but to surrender, burying his head in Mu Sifa's chest, too embarrassed to lift it. He was acutely aware that his face must be extremely flushed right now.
Hearing the little sheep's sweet and endearing plea, Mu Sifa felt content. He grinned, “Alright, I won't act recklessly. But once I return, we'll have that conversation.”
Seeing Shang Xiaojie's raised eyebrows, he couldn't let Shang Xiaojie off that easily.
Despite his embarrassment, Shang Xiaojie didn't decline, stating, “As long as you refrain from hitting me and I manage to stay unbothered, I'm willing to cooperate.”
A mixture of pride and shyness emerged in her, yet her gentle and adorable voice lingered, evoking an inexplicable unease.
It could be that they agreed out of the realization that they might never shake off Mu Sifa's presence in their lifetime, so they would gradually acclimate to it.
Mu Sifa was taken aback by Shang Xiaojie's agreement. However, a smile adorned his face the very next moment.
As anticipated, this kid wasn't only cute but also quite reasonable!
