Uh~
My aunt meant for her to share a room with Ji Huaishen?
They are a legally married couple, so living in the same house and sleeping in the same bed seems like the most normal thing in the world, right?
Mu Xiaocheng lowered her head and gave a perfunctory reply.
"Then you should go and rest."
Zhou Ningyi couldn't help but urge him again.
Ji Huaishen smiled faintly, then firmly took her hand, nodded to Meng Yun and Zhou Ningyi, and led Mu Xiaocheng upstairs.
With her aunt and uncle present, Mu Xiaocheng couldn't break free from his hand and could only let him hold it.
Even after the two returned to their room, Ji Huaishen did not let go of his hand.
Mu Xiaocheng wouldn't have it.
Although she no longer dislikes his behavior.
But...
This ambiguous behavior made her feel a little embarrassed and ashamed.
Because the man beside her was so tall, Mu Xiaocheng had to look up at him and move her hand, which he was holding, slightly: "Have you held hands enough?"
She was pouting, her cheeks puffed out.
Her fair cheeks were flushed, making her both cute and charming.
"No."
His answer was firm and earnest.
The rich and pleasant voice entered Mu Xiaocheng's ears, carrying the heat of summer, making her ears turn slightly red.
This man is really shameless.
She looked away, deliberately avoiding his gaze, and began to explain to herself, "I didn't mean to take your hand just now."
"I just feel that if we don't act affectionate, Shen Yiming and the others will start to overthink things and say that you are abusing me, which won't be good for your reputation."
"Absolutely not because they're infatuated with you."
After stammering through her words, Mu Xiaocheng felt an urge to bite her tongue off.
What is she saying?
Such an explanation is worse than no explanation at all.
I accidentally blurted out what was on my mind.
That's practically an admission of guilt!
Mu Xiaocheng, what kind of pig brain do you have!
Upon hearing her words, Ji Huaishen's deep eyes gradually filled with a thick smile. So, her behavior just now was because she was jealous?
No one else can understand Mr. Ji's feelings at this moment.
It was like a barren desert sprouting tender green buds, full of vitality, bringing spring to his once desolate heart and leaving behind a pleasant thrill.
He waited so long, and finally it happened.
Even if it's just a sliver of hope she gives him, he's content.
Suddenly, he pulled her into his arms.
It was so tight, as if it wanted to meld her into its very bones.
"Ji, Ji Huaishen, don't forget, you're still a criminal. We're still having a falling out, so don't lay a hand on me."
Her sweet, soft voice rang out in the room with a hint of irritability, but the man holding her seemed to ignore it, resting his chin on the top of her head, one hand tightly around her slender waist, his thin, red lips pressed together as if he was trying his best to restrain something.
Ji Huaishen knew very well that at this moment, his heart, no, every part of his body, yearned for and clamored to possess her.
He can't let go; she's his.
She must be his.
"baby."
A moment later, his deep, hoarse voice rang out above Mu Xiaocheng's head.
It carries a deep sense of tenderness.
Mu Xiaocheng was stunned for a moment, and her face quickly turned red.
Why all of a sudden, cheesy display of affection?
While Mu Xiaocheng was still in a daze, he lowered his head and kissed her smooth forehead.
His eyes, as deep as ink pools, stared at her: "I really..."
I love you very much.
