After the friendly live broadcast ended, Nan Qing kept her word. She took Xiao Ba's hand and followed Xiao Mobai directly into their CT team's van.

Whether she did it intentionally or unintentionally, both the human and the animal seemed to have forgotten that they had also driven there...

On the way from the mall to the parking lot, Xiao Mobai thought about how to start a conversation with Nan Qing, but he really didn't know what to say. He racked his brains, but before he could figure out how to start the conversation, they arrived at the parking lot.

Xiao Mobai frantically opened the car door, and because he used too much force, the door made a loud "bang." Nan Qing wasn't startled; instead, she couldn't help but laugh at his disheveled state.

After she got into the car, Xiao Mobai stood in front of the car door, raised his hand and slapped himself on the forehead. The crisp sound proved that he had indeed used a lot of force!

Upon hearing the crisp sound, a series of suppressed giggles came from behind him. Xiao Mobai turned around and saw Lin Xing and the others huddled together, arms around each other, their eyes gleaming with gossip.

Xiao Mobai glared at the three of them, then turned and slipped into the car. Once inside, he naturally sat down next to Nan Qing. He was quite bold at this point, practically sticking his whole body to Nan Qing, as if there weren't enough seats in the car...

Lin Xing was the last to board the bus. Before sitting down, he deliberately asked loudly:

"Brother Mo, should we turn the air conditioning down a bit? Your face is so red!"

A burst of laughter erupted inside the car. Nan Qing, who was holding Xiao Ba, looked at Xiao Mobai with a smile in her eyes. Even Xiao Ba in her arms suddenly barked and wagged its tail very happily.

Xiao Mobai turned his head to look at Nan Qing, who was all smiles. His voice was a few decibels lower than usual, and he sounded a little embarrassed.

"that....."

"Don't pay attention to them... They're always unreliable and not steady at all."

Upon hearing this, Nan Qing met his bright black eyes directly, her eyes crinkling, and her voice filled with barely concealed amusement:

"Really? But I think they're adorable."

Xiao Mobai was visibly taken aback upon hearing Nan Qing's words, then his brows furrowed slightly as he muttered softly:

"They're not cute at all..."

"She's clearly not as good-looking as me."

There was a hint of bitterness in his voice that he himself didn't realize. He only knew that his wife couldn't possibly praise another man as cute...

His two sentences were exceptionally clear in the quiet carriage. At this moment, Xiao Mobai had not yet realized that there was anything wrong with what he said. In any case, all he could think about was "his wife praising another man as cute".

Nan Qing blinked, seemingly surprised that he would say something so childish, but before she could say anything, the people in the front row let out a series of soft, suppressed laughs.

The group pulled out their phones and frantically refreshed the chat group, which included the three of them, team leader Lin Yan, and team manager Wang Yan, except for Xiao Mobai.

Lin Xing: "Holy crap, there was no recording!!! What a huge loss!"

Zhou Hui: "Haha, don't rush, I have a feeling that this kind of scene will happen a lot in the future."

A-Yue: "Brother Mo has really no shame... What kind of man compliments his own looks?"

Zhou Hui: "What's so special about this? Didn't you guys smell the perfume on Brother Mo? It's so strong it could make him smell like he's been pickled."

Lin Xing: "And that hairstyle, I swear, it used at least half a bottle of hairspray!"

Wang Yan: "Okay, quiet down."

Wang Yan: "You guys are so noisy I can't hear anything from the back row!"

A-Yue: "Brother Yan, Brother Yan, do you want me to do a live stream for you?? I'm super close~"

Lin Yan: "Yeah, you're almost as tall as the back of that chair, aren't you?"

The front row was lively, and the back row was also lively. Nan Qing suddenly leaned closer to Xiao Mobai, her soft hair swaying gently with her movements, and a few strands even fell to Xiao Mobai's neck, causing him to feel a tingling sensation.

She tilted her head slightly, her round, doe-like eyes fixed intently on his fair and sculpted features, her gaze moving from his eyes to the bridge of his nose, then to his lips and chin.

At this moment, Xiao Mobai was completely frozen, not daring to move, letting Nan Qing look him over at will.

His wife was so close to him, so close that he could smell the faint floral scent on her body, and see each of her eyelashes, even the fine downy hairs on her skin...

Looking at Nan Qing, who was only a hand's width away from him, Xiao Mobai's Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily, and his fingers gripped the edge of the seat tightly.

One second.

Three seconds.

Five seconds.

Just as Xiao Mobai felt he was about to suffocate, Nan Qing finally stepped back a little, a sly smile curving her lips, and deliberately drawled out her words:

Indeed~

"Upon closer inspection, it seems you are indeed cuter~"

These words struck Xiao Mobai's heart like an overly sweet candy. His eyes widened, his face flushed instantly, his lips pursed, and finally, he unconsciously raised them slowly, staring intently at Nan Qing who was standing right in front of him.

He knew that his face was still useful!

Just then, several distinct gasps came from the front row.

Xiao Mobai looked up and saw that A Yue and Lin Xing, Zhou Hui and Lin Yan, who were sitting in the row in front of him, as well as Wang Yan in the passenger seat, were all twisting their necks and peeking at him in an extremely awkward posture, with complicated expressions of "can't bear to watch" and "watching a good show" written all over their faces.

A Yue and Lin Xing were still peeking at him through the gaps between the tables and chairs in front, while Zhou Hui was holding up a phone with the camera clearly pointed at Xiao Mobai's flushed face.

Xiao Mobai rolled his eyes at them, his gaze equally full of disdain.

What do these single guys know? Have they ever experienced being praised as "cute" by their wives?

Do you know what the happiness of "having a wife makes everything alright" means?

He even straightened his back, his face flushed red, but with an expression that said "I am very proud", and he couldn't suppress the wildly upturned corners of his mouth.

Moreover, from an angle unseen by others, Xiao Mobai's left hand moved stealthily until his fingertips gently lifted a small section of Nan Qing's skirt and gripped it tightly...

Although the teammates in the front row who were watching the show didn't notice, how could Nan Qing not feel anything when someone was grabbing her skirt?

She glanced down at him, but said nothing. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and a small smile curved her lips. Then, she turned her head to look out the window as if nothing had happened, leaving the hem of her skirt in his palm.

Through the reflection in the car window, she could actually see that after she turned her head, Xiao Mobai next to her was no longer the shy and speechless person he had been. His dark eyes were fixed on her, so intense that she couldn't ignore them. There was also a hint of possessiveness in those dark eyes.

Upon seeing this, Nan Qing smiled knowingly.

Not bad. It seems that although his personality has changed, his core nature remains the same.

Like wolves, they are still fierce and powerful.
