Ge Xiaotian wasn't angry at Deng Yi and Gu Jinghe's mockery. He was usually a bit carefree and didn't like to think too much in life. He felt that he should keep his mind on the battle and leave everything else to chance.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that! Come on, sister-in-law, let me toast you, congratulations!"

This was the first time Ruan Ruan had ever heard someone call her "sister-in-law," which was quite unusual for her.

Logically speaking, since she had already returned to the Ruan family and married Huo Haocheng, the other brothers in the Huo family should call her sister-in-law. However, she grew up in the Huo family and felt awkward hearing them call her sister-in-law, so they just called each other whatever they wanted. Besides, they were all family, so it didn't matter what they called her.

"Thank you." Ruan Ruan picked up the drink cup next to her, said thank you to Ge Xiaotian, took a sip, and then continued eating her food.

Huo Haocheng, who was standing to the side, was clearly taken aback when she heard Ge Xiaotian call her "wife" or "sister-in-law." Huo Haocheng found that expression quite unusual.

After dinner, everyone drank quite a bit. Luckily, the wives had learned to drive with Ruan Ruan recently, so they were able to take them home one by one.

When I got home, I was exhausted. I said I only went out for a meal, but I really talked a lot.

Lying in bed, Huo Haocheng wanted to go over and hug his wife, but Ruan Ruan seemed to have anticipated his movements and rolled over to the inside of the bed. "It's too hot, let's sleep separately, don't hug me."

"Oh dear, it's only been a few years, and the love is gone. Now he won't even hug me. I'm so pitiful! Oh! Oh!..." Huo Haocheng, who had been drinking, didn't look drunk to outsiders. But only Ruan Ruan knew that he liked to push his luck and would only act crazy when it was just the two of them, fueled by alcohol. No one knew where he learned this bad habit.

Logically speaking, the other members of their group shouldn't be like this either.

Ruan Ruan had been driving them home in the middle of the day, and she was feeling incredibly hot. She just wanted some peace and quiet to rest, but Huo Haocheng kept babbling incessantly beside her, just like a toddler learning to talk. Ruan Ruan got so annoyed that she told him to "shut up."

Alright, she's really angry now. Huo Haocheng could only turn over and lie down next to her, watching his wife close her eyes and fall asleep as if no one else was around.

About half an hour later, after confirming that Ruan Ruan was really asleep, Huo Haocheng quietly moved himself, held her in his arms, kissed her, and whispered, "Wife, don't be angry, don't be angry." After saying that, he closed his eyes to rest, satisfied.

When Ruan Ruan woke up again, she was awakened by the heat. She felt as if she was surrounded by a ball of fire. She barely opened her eyes and saw Huo Haocheng holding her tightly. She struggled a couple of times, but did not move.

He muttered, "Fine, let's die of heat together!" Then he used his foot to pull the blanket over his feet and threw it on Huo Haocheng. He then turned around with difficulty, wrapped Huo Haocheng under the blanket, and hugged him tightly.

After doing all this, Ruan Ruan felt tired again, closed her eyes, and went back to sleep.

Just as she closed her eyes, Huo Haocheng opened them. He had woken up when she struggled softly earlier. The reason he hadn't let go was to tease her, but he hadn't expected her to do this. Now, looking at his wife's arms holding him, Huo Haocheng didn't feel hot at all, but was actually quite happy. However, he loosened his grip and closed his eyes again.
