Chapter 64 Shameless. Xi
The footsteps outside the door were getting closer and closer. Qu Tao was too nervous to move. Xi Mozhou raised his body with a sense of mischief.
"Wife..."
His body trembled, and he let out a short sob. His panicked eyes looked at him with a reproachful look.
"Don't move. Wait a minute."
"I can't wait."
Qu Tao bit his lips, and a hint of pink appeared at the end of his eyes. He looked a little pitiful. Xi Mozhou picked up the thin blanket beside him and covered the two of them, isolating them from the outside.
"Wife, hurry up."
"Mozhou?"
Shen Yichen suddenly knocked on the door outside. Qu Tao's pupils trembled, and then stopped. Xi Mozhou supported his body, half sat up, and kissed his lips.
His brain was suffocating as if it was lacking oxygen. The knocking on the door outside seemed to be the drumbeat on the battlefield.
Tears and sweat, with a long low roar, Shen Yichen realized something and hurried downstairs.
"Mr. Shen, why did you come down so soon? Are you leaving?"
"Well, I suddenly remembered that I have something urgent to deal with. I'll come over later."
Hearing the conversation between Chen Ma and Shen Yichen in the yard, Qu Tao panted, curled up in Xi Mozhou's arms, and bit his arm angrily.
"It's all your fault. You've lost a lot of money."
"How can you blame me? Blame him. Who made him come at the wrong time?"
"Wrong logic."
Qu Tao adjusted his breathing and lowered his head. Xi Mozhou rested his chin on his hair, and he was very satisfied in the aftertaste.
"Honey, why do I get more excited the more nervous you are?"
"Because you...bt!"
The air suddenly fell silent. Qu Tao thought of his arm and felt a little guilty.
"How is your arm? Did you hurt it again? Does it hurt?"
"It's just a minor fracture, it's no problem. I didn't move much. It's all thanks to you, my wife."
"Don't do it before you remove the plaster on your arm. I'll go to the guest room tonight."
"No, I'll go wherever you go."
...
Nearing dusk, Shen Yichen came again at dinner time.
But he was no longer alone. Xu Cong and Qiu Mingxuan were with him.
When Qu Tao saw him, Mu's cheeks flushed. Xi Mozhou seemed to notice it and gently held his hand, pointing the finger at Shen Yichen.
"Next time you come, remember to call in advance."
"Got it." Shen Yichen gritted his teeth and muttered softly, "Who knew you were so careless in broad daylight, injured, and still playing so wildly."
"What do you mean, didn't Old Shen run into something?" Qiu Mingxuan smelled something and smiled maliciously, "Old Shen, tell me, what did you run into?"
Shen Yichen glanced at him and said nothing. Qiu Mingxuan narrowed his eyes and hummed towards Xi Mozhou.
"The water of Honghu Lake, the waves are hitting the waves..."
After singing only one sentence, he came to Xi Mozhou.
"Old Xi, listen to my word "waves", is it out of tune?"
Qu Tao's cheeks were hot, he glanced at Xi Mozhou, shook off his hand, and walked towards the door of the hall.
"I'll go see if the madman has arrived."
Xi Mozhou looked at Qu Tao who almost ran away, and slapped Qiu Mingxuan on the shoulder.
"Have I told you that my Tao Tao is thin-skinned? Try singing another line?"
"But why are you so thick-skinned? Is it because we complement each other and are destined to be a couple?"
"You said something sensible, I'll spare you today." Xi Mozhou said, and turned to the other two, "My Tao Tao is thin-skinned, remember to speak less in front of it."
"Yes, sir," the three looked at each other, suppressed their laughter, "Thick-skinned. Xi."
During the meal, because Xi Mozhou couldn't drink, everyone urged him to be the guest, and asked the couple to have one of them accompany him.
Qu Tao was forced to rush the duck on the shelf, so he had to pick up the wine glass as the host and entertain him well.
Slightly tipsy, Qu Tao and Han Feng huddled together and whispered. Shen Yichen and the others took the opportunity to take credit from Xi Mozhou.
"We helped you get your status, so don't keep her waiting any longer. When you're healed, strike while the iron is hot and marry her back as soon as possible."
"Thank you for your kindness," Xi Mozhou looked at Qu Tao, with the corners of his lips raised high. "When you get married, I'll exempt you from half of the wedding gift money."
"Only half?" Qiu Mingxuan was a little dissatisfied, and then put on a sly smile, "Forget it, getting married is a major event in life. I think I'd better persuade Qu Tao to let him stay a little longer to observe, so as not to put his trust in the wrong person."
"No, all for free, okay?" Being threatened, Xi Mozhou compromised, which also showed his capital means over the years, "But each of you must come up with a proposal plan for me."
Qu Tao was still talking to Han Feng, smiling from time to time. Xi Mozhou was jealous and signaled Pei Zechen to call Qu Tao back to his side.
"Taotao, I want to eat shrimp."
"You have your mouth, eat if you want, why call me?"
Qu Tao was chatting happily, without raising his head, Xi Mozhou raised his hand in plaster.
"But it's inconvenient for me."
Qu Tao finally raised his head with a wronged voice, looked at him, and sat back next to him helplessly.
"Don't you dislike shrimp?"
"Well, it's too troublesome to eat."
Ha... So someone peeled it, so you want to eat it.
Qu Tao stuffed the peeled shrimp into his mouth angrily.
"Eat one today, and you have to return ten to me later. Do you still want to eat?"
"Yeah." Xi Mozhou didn't want to let him go, so he nodded, "What were you and Han Feng talking about just now?"
Han Feng just told him about Pei Zechen's reaction after cosplaying at noon today, but he didn't plan to tell Xi Mozhou about it.
"What else can we talk about? It's almost the 11th. Let's talk about where to go for fun."
"Really?" He was laughing so happily just now. Xi Mozhou didn't believe it and continued with his words, "Have you decided where to go? No matter where you go, I can accompany you."
"With your body..." Qu Tao looked at him with disdain, "Don't count on it, just stay home and watch the show."
"What's wrong with my body? I can accompany you to the ends of the earth."
Qu Tao stopped talking and silently peeled the shrimp in his hand. Xi Mozhou pondered for a while and suggested.
"How about we go to Wufeng Mountain? There is a large maple forest and hot springs there. Now is a good season for fun."
"Hot springs? You can't touch the water, so forget it."
Qu Tao was moved by what he said, and thought of his arm. There was a little regret at the end of his words, but Xi Mozhou didn't care.
"Only arms can't touch water, not other parts of the body."
Xi Mozhou said and turned to other people. Although these people were like light bulbs in his eyes, this was not the right time.
He had his own calculations. First, it would be more lively with more people. Second, and most importantly, he was physically inconvenient, and these people could help his son Tao Tao share the pressure.
After consulting, except Xu Cong who wanted to go back to his hometown, the others had no objection.
Late at night, everyone dispersed. Qu Tao simply wiped Xi Mozhou's body before taking a shower.
"Sleep separately tonight. I'll go to the guest bedroom."
"No, I'll go wherever you go."
"I'm doing this for your own good. What if you accidentally move your arm in the afternoon?"
"No, I won't touch you tonight."
Worried that Qu Tao would insist on going to the guest bedroom, Xi Mozhou added.
"If I want to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, you don't want to see me accidentally fall, right?"
"The two quilts."
"Okay."
Half asleep and half awake, there was a cool feeling on my waist, followed by a warm breath.
Qu Tao was startled and realized something, a broken voice.
"Xi Mozhou, why don't you sleep in the middle of the night? What do you want to do?"
"To compensate you, you worked hard this afternoon."
