Chapter 74 The Blockhead is Angry
Although the last half sentence was deliberately said in a fierce tone, the red tips of his ears seemed to be dripping with blood.
Mo Yu stared at Tang Xiaoyun's profile, thinking about what he had just said, but his heart beat even more happily.
His eyelashes trembled slightly, he stared at the red tip of Tang Xiaoyun's ear, his Adam's apple rolled, he wanted to say something, but was blocked by the heat in his chest.
Her fingertips quietly pinched into her palms, resisting the urge to hug him in her arms, and turning all the surging emotions into tears shaking in her eyes.
The charming atmosphere between the two of them at this moment made Mo Yu blush. A barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he whispered, "...silly."
Tang Xiaoyun's cheeks puffed up with anger. He stared at Mo Yu's lips, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and wished he could take a bite.
[Is this guy really a blockhead? Shouldn't he be holding me in his arms and taking whatever he wants?]
Upon hearing this, the system teased: [Host, are you thinking about love?]
Tang Xiaoyun did not refute. Once he realized his feelings, he was not the kind of person who would pretend to be shy.
Hearing this, Mo Yu stared at Tang Xiaoyun's sexy lips, his throat rolling: He... wants me to kiss him?
He chuckled in his heart, then slowly reached out his hand and tentatively touched Tang Xiaoyun's face. Seeing that he didn't hide, he became bolder and slowly moved closer.
The tips of their noses touched, and Tang Xiaoyun's body trembled suddenly.
The system noticed and jokingly said: [What, host, are you scared? ]
Tang Xiaoyun snorted inwardly: [Would I be afraid? It's not like I haven't eaten it before.]
Mo Yu's mind moved, and he slowly moved his lips closer. The surroundings seemed to become quiet in an instant, and only the sound of each other's heartbeats could be heard.
Just when their lips were about to touch, Aunt Song's loud voice suddenly came from outside the yard.
"Goudan! You stole your father's gourd again!"
This voice was like a thunderclap, shattering the ambiguous atmosphere between the two people.
Mo Yu and Tang Xiaoyun's bodies suddenly stiffened. Mo Yu suddenly distanced himself from Tang Xiaoyun. The wind he brought with him when he withdrew his hand seemed to carry Tang Xiaoyun's breathing.
The moment the two of them passed each other, the tips of their ears turned red like boiled crabs.
"I didn't pick it, it fell off by itself. I'm going to find Brother Tang Er!"
Before he could finish his words, a young boy ran out of Aunt Song's house in a hurry, followed by Aunt Song who was chasing him with a broom.
Seeing Tang Xiaoyun and Mo Yu looking over at her, Aunt Song hid the broom behind her with a sullen look and said with an awkward smile, "I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself. This kid is very naughty and I have to teach him a lesson."
Then he turned around and scolded Goudan, who had already walked into Tang Xiaoyun's yard, "Don't cause trouble for your second brother Tang. If I find out you've gotten into trouble again, I'll have your father deal with you!"
"I know, it's long-winded."
Goudan grumbled in dissatisfaction, walked over to Tang Xiaoyun and Mo Yu, sat down between them, turned to look at Tang Xiaoyun and asked, "Second Brother Tang, what are you doing?"
Looking at this brat in front of him who didn't know how to read people's expressions, Mo Yu's eyes twitched. This kid must have done it on purpose!
Hearing Goudan's words, Tang Xiaoyun turned his head away, scratching the back of his head and said, "No, nothing. By the way, your mother said you got first place in the exam this time?"
Hearing this, Goudan raised his head and said arrogantly, "Of course not. Don't you see who I am?"
Tang Xiaoyun was amused by his appearance and teased, "Yes, yes, you are a hot-tempered dog. You are so ambitious that you can hold up the sky. Who can compare with you?"
Goudan's face flushed, his lips pouting so much that you could hang an oil can on them. He muttered in dissatisfaction, "So what if I lose a piece of meat when you sincerely praise me? I know it's all because of your good guidance, okay?"
Tang Xiaoyun rolled his eyes at him amusedly, then stood up and walked into the house, saying as he walked, "You must study hard and don't disappoint your parents. Become the top scorer in the imperial examination next year, and let your mother enjoy the happiness as well."
“That’s a must!”
Goudan touched his nose with his thumb, and his arrogant look made Mo Yu unable to bear to look at him.
Realizing that Mo Yu disliked him, Goudan deliberately moved closer to Mo Yu and said fearlessly, "Brother Mo, you seem to hate me?"
Mo Yu glared at him coldly and said in a cold tone, "It's good to know."
Goudan curled his lips and smiled. Although he was only a thirteen-year-old boy, his eyes were full of calculation.
"I saw it all just now. You wanted to bully Second Brother Tang."
As expected, as soon as these words came out, Mo Yu's face suddenly darkened, and a cold aura emanated from his body. He asked in a cold voice: "Why, do you want me to bully you too?"
Goudan didn't answer, but raised his eyebrows at him provocatively, as if to say: Come on, hit me!
Mo Yu was so angry that he reached out and grabbed Goudan's collar. Goudan was born short, and Mo Yu lifted him up like a chicken.
"Boy, are you looking for death by lighting a fire in the toilet?" He had always felt that this boy liked to provoke him intentionally or unintentionally, and today he was not pretending at all.
Goudan was almost suffocating because his collar was grabbed, but he was not panicked because he heard Tang Xiaoyun's footsteps coming towards him.
So, the next second——
"Wow! I won't do that again, please don't hit me!!"
Mo Yu was startled, thinking something was wrong, and immediately let go of his hand.
Unexpectedly, Goudan lay down on the ground, covering his butt and crying.
Tang Xiaoyun, who came out of the house holding clothes, just heard his cry and ran out in a hurry.
"What's wrong?"
Goudan immediately put on an aggrieved expression and pointed at Mo Yu and said, "Brother Mo...hit me..."
Mo Yu was stunned for a moment. When did he hit him?
At most, it was just a threat.
Tang Xiaoyun stuffed the clothes into Mo Yu's arms and said in an unhappy tone: "Why are you hitting a child?"
Then he turned around and pulled Goudan up, asking with concern: "Where did I hit you? Does it still hurt?"
Goudan raised his eyebrows at Mo Yu, then took Tang Xiaoyun's arm and leaned his head on his shoulder, saying coquettishly, "Second brother, he spanked me and now I can't even stand."
Hearing this, Tang Xiaoyun glared at Mo Yu warningly, then pulled Goudan to sit at a table nearby.
She pushed the cakes in front of her towards him and said, "Sit down and enjoy your snacks. I'll go and help you teach him a lesson."
As he spoke, he walked over to Mo Yu, pulled him up and walked into the house. Once inside, he pushed Mo Yu against the wall and asked, "Tell me, what's going on? Why did you hit him for no reason?"
Mo Yu was pushed against the wall by Tang Xiaoyun. When he heard his words, his chest heaved slightly, his thin lips were pursed into a line, and his jawline was clearly defined because of gritting his teeth.
He lowered his eyes and stared at Tang Xiaoyun, with complex emotions surging in his eyes, but he suppressed them. His Adam's apple rolled, and he said in a suppressed voice: "...I didn't hit him."
"If you didn't hit him, would he say that?"
Hearing this, Mo Yu turned his face away, pulled the corner of his mouth in self-mockery, and whispered: "...Forget it, just believe him."
Tang Xiaoyun was stunned and subconsciously reached out to pull him, but he only had time to touch the corner of his clothes.
[Funny, he hit someone and still got angry? ]
Hearing this, Mo Yu quickened his pace, feeling choked up, and went to the side to sulk.
Seeing this, the system flew out of Tang Xiaoyun's body, looked at Mo Yu's lonely back as he sat alone in the yard, and turned to Tang Xiaoyun and said: [Host, you really wronged the boss this time.]
Tang Xiaoyun: [How do you say that?]
System: [Big Boss didn't hit him at all. The kid fell on his own, so blame it on Big Boss.]
Tang Xiaoyun: [Really? Then didn't I misunderstand him?]
System: [That's right. Look how pitiful the boss is. He lost his memory and martial arts skills, and now he's being misunderstood by his wife. How sad he must be! I feel so sorry for him...]
Listening to the system's words, Tang Xiaoyun rolled his eyes at it in annoyance: "That's enough. You're so supportive of him. I really doubt whose side you're on."
Although he refuted the system's words, he still felt a little guilty.
He walked over to Goudan who was eating snacks, poked his head in annoyance, and asked in a low voice: "Little brat, let me ask you, did he really hit you? If you dare to lie to me, I will not tutor you in your studies anymore."
When Goudan heard this, he subconsciously turned his head to look at Mo Yu who had his back to them, and realized that the joke had been over.
He shrank his neck and said with an awkward smile: "Hehe, I was just...playing a joke on him..."
have to!
Now the truth is out.
"You damned child, you've killed me!"
After poking Goudan's head hard, he walked towards Mo Yu. After taking two steps, he turned back, snatched the snack in front of Goudan, gave him a warning glare, and then walked towards Mo Yu.
He came and sat down next to Mo Yu, his fingers unconsciously stroking the edge of his sleeves, and his eyes glanced at Mo Yu's face a few times with an uncertain look.
He cleared his throat, pretended to be natural and handed over the snack in his hand, and said in a flattering tone: "...Um, this osmanthus cake is delicious, do you really want to try it?"
Mo Yu: "..."
Seeing that Mo Yu didn't respond, he quietly moved closer and nudged him with his elbow: "Ahem...that brat Goudan is talking nonsense. I've already taught him a lesson."
After he finished speaking, he secretly observed Mo Yu's expression, his fingertips restlessly drawing circles on his legs, his voice getting lower and lower: "...I didn't ask clearly just now, I didn't believe you, I was wrong, please don't be angry, okay?"
He reached out and gently pulled Mo Yu's sleeve and shook it. The last sentence was almost squeezed out of his throat, with a bit of awkward flattery.
Mo Yu, who had been planning to remain angry until tomorrow, felt his heart soften when he heard him admit his mistake so humbly. His originally tense face relaxed slightly, the corners of his eyes trembled slightly, and he finally turned around to look at him.
He pretended to be indifferent and said "hmm", but the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably and then were forced down.
He lowered his eyes to look at the snacks that Tang Xiaoyun handed over, his gaze lingering on his fingers, the tips of his ears flushed red, and he whispered, "This won't happen again."
Tang Xiaoyun grinned. Although one could tell there was still a hint of anger in his voice, at least he was willing to speak.
"You're not angry now, right? Then try this snack." He picked up a piece and handed it to Mo Yu's lips, staring at him with expectant eyes.
Mo Yu glanced at the snack that was brought to his lips, and the tenderness in his eyes did not escape Tang Xiaoyun's eyes.
He had no choice but to lower his head and take a bite of the pastry. This action was just the right way to hide his smile that was about to be hidden. Only the redness on the tip of his ear betrayed him.
