Chapter 417 Paid Content
It was already 1 a.m. when Li Muhan returned home that night. He originally wanted to stay in the medical department and wait for the results of the operation, but Minister Lan told him that this was a protracted battle and Lin Ziyu's heart was too severely injured to be over so quickly.
Considering that Xia Yue was in a bad mood, Li Muhan decided to go home first.
Since moving to the new house, Li Muhan has been much closer to the bank located in the basement of the Special Management Bureau.
After returning home, he lowered his voice and entered the room, and found that Xia Yue seemed to have fallen asleep.
He had no plans to take a shower and go to bed. After all, if Minister Lan called, he could rush to the medical department immediately.
Li Muhan tiptoed to the bedside and slowly squatted down. Just when he wanted to take a look at Xia Yue's sleeping face, he found that the girl's eyes were wide open, staring at him motionlessly.
“…Fuck, you scared me.”
Li Muhan pinched Xia Yue's face as he spoke.
"How is Lin Ziyu?"
Xia Yue asked, her voice a little hoarse, as if she had just woken up.
"The medical department is still trying to save the patient, but judging from Director Lan's tone, there should be no problem. She promised to let me know as soon as the operation is over."
"Today... I'm sorry I couldn't support you."
Speaking of this, Xia Yue's mood seemed to become depressed again. Having lived together for so long, Li Muhan naturally understood Xia Yue's temper.
She usually doesn't show this expression unless she really encounters something that affects her thinking.
"What's wrong with you? You seem very strange today."
Facing Li Muhan's questioning, Xia Yue buried half of her face in the quilt, and then asked in a somewhat tentative tone: "Li Muhan...will you abandon me?"
"Leave you behind? Oh, did you say I came back late today? Sorry... because there are too many things to do. I promise, next time I will..."
"That's not what I meant. What I meant was...would you dislike me for being too weak and think I'm in the way..."
Are you weak?
Li Muhan stared at Xia Yue, pondering her words over and over in his mind.
He wondered if this was another case of Xia Yue being influenced by a character in a TV series recommended to her by Chi Yuan. The sudden soul-searching always caught him off guard.
If you answer carelessly, the consequences are often disastrous.
However, Xia Yue's question this time was so direct that he really couldn't figure out her intentions.
So Li Muhan decided to change the subject. He slowly took out a gift box from behind him and placed it on the bedside table.
"What is this..." Xia Yue's eyes lit up instantly. She curiously moved closer to the gift box, sniffed it deeply, and then her eyes flashed with anticipation.
"You have a dog's nose, you can smell it so quickly." Li Muhan smiled helplessly and opened the gift box. Inside was a small and exquisite custom-made cake.
"The queue for this thing is a whole day long, and it's limited. Haven't you always said you wanted to eat it? I asked Luo Yang to queue up and buy it for me today."
"......Thanks."
Upon hearing this, Xia Yue rose slightly from the bed, her long, dark hair slightly disheveled, cascading freely. Her petite figure looked even more fragile under the loose, strappy nightgown. One side of the nightgown slipped casually over her shoulders, revealing her jade-like smooth neck and shoulders, adding a touch of moving beauty.
"Xia Yue, happy birthday."
Li Muhan suddenly said something at this time that made Xia Yue stunned for a moment, and then she realized that the birthday Li Muhan mentioned was actually April 1st marked on her ID card.
Just like the meaning given to this day by people, April Fools' Day.
"Actually... I don't know when my birthday is, but it probably isn't today."
A trace of guilt flashed across the girl's face.
She knew that this was a gift Li Muhan specially prepared for her. Of course, she also had to thank that Luo...what was it, she forgot, but she was grateful to him anyway.
But today is not her birthday, which makes Xia Yue feel like she has let Li Muhan down.
"It's okay. Starting this year, April 1st will be your birthday. I will spend every birthday with you."
Li Muhan put the cake aside and said to Xia Yue gently.
Xia Yue stared at Li Muhan, and their gazes shone brightly in the darkness. Finally, Xia Yue put her arms around Li Muhan's neck.
"Want to suck blood?"
Li Muhan was already used to this kind of contact, and he didn't resist much, but Xia Yue leaned close to his ear and whispered, "No... Today, even if you don't suck my blood, I'll give you a gift. Just lie down obediently."
Then Xia Yue planned to drag Li Muhan to the bed, just like every time before.
But today Li Muhan had a different idea.
He put his arm around Xia Yue's waist, but instead of being pulled over by Xia Yue, he picked her up and pressed her onto the bed.
"Since it's a gift for me...Is it okay for me to open it myself?"
"Eh? You...you..."
Xia Yue tried to struggle, but she didn't expect that Li Muhan's strength was like an iron clamp, making it impossible for her to break free.
At this moment, she suddenly thought of what Charles said to her.
[Shallia, that demon's power is growing stronger, and you...are gradually starting to lose track of him.]
I....I can't keep up with you anymore?
Xia Yue was pressed on the bed by Li Muhan, but a sparkling tear flashed in her eyes.
Li Muhan thought that his actions had scared Xia Yue, and was about to stand up to explain, but the next moment, Xia Yue took advantage of the moment when Li Muhan let go and put her arms around his neck again, pulling him towards her.
"Li Muhan... today... you take the initiative, I'll listen to you."
"Um......"
Li Muhan looked at Xia Yue under him, then slowly lowered his head and kissed her lips.
The two bodies gradually embraced each other, and Li Muhan's hand reached out...

Around 3 a.m., Li Muhan couldn't fall asleep at all. When his cell phone rang, he sat up suddenly and picked up Xia Yue, who was sleeping on him.
"...Earthquake?" Xia Yue rubbed her sleepy eyes.
Li Muhan gently put Xia Yue aside and then answered the phone.
"Lan, Minister Lan! Lin, Lin Ziyu, he he...he..."
[He's passed the critical period, but it will take some time for him to fully recover. He hasn't woken up yet. If you want to see him, please come back tomorrow.]
Lan Yun's voice also sounded very tired. Li Muhan knew that the director of the Medical Department had been working hard on Lin Ziyu's matter recently. He expressed his gratitude to Lan Yun and hung up the phone.
“…Is it an earthquake…?”
Xia Yue was still very unconscious, and then she was directly held in Li Muhan's arms.
“Wake up! Wake up!!”
“…If you’re awake, just wake up. Be gentle…!” Xia Yue tried to push Li Muhan away, but Li Muhan just hugged her tighter and tighter.
"Ah... asshole... stop pushing... wait... it's flattened! Let go!"
"Lin Ziyu is awake!!!"
Li Muhan finally shouted happily to Xia Yue, but after Xia Yue broke free, she elbowed him and knocked him unconscious on the bed.
"...Then you can sleep peacefully." Looking at the unconscious Li Muhan, Xia Yue leaned down slightly and kissed his forehead.
