Chapter 37
"Xuanxuan, you..."
Huo Changfeng's Adam's apple rolled and his voice became hoarse unconsciously.
He stood up and walked towards Mu Qingxuan. His steps were a little hurried, causing a breeze to ruffle her hair.
Mu Qingxuan's cheeks were slightly red, and her eyes were shining: "Does it look good? This is the dress that mom picked for me today."
It was also her first time to wear a cheongsam, although she was very confident about her appearance and figure.
But now, facing Huo Changfeng's burning gaze, he still felt a little uneasy.
Mu Qingxuan raised her hand and tucked the loose hair behind her ears.
Huo Changfeng stared at Mu Qingxuan deeply, taking in all her unintentional little movements, and his heart beat faster and faster.
He stood in front of Mu Qingxuan. They were only inches apart and could hear each other's breathing clearly.
“It looks very nice.”
Huo Changfeng paused, and the workaholic from the research institute who was obviously praising others added from the bottom of his heart: "You look very beautiful in this outfit."
She was so beautiful that he wanted to hide Mu Qingxuan and never let anyone see her again.
He was the only one who could appreciate Mu Qingxuan's complete blossoming appearance.
Huo Changfeng was a little surprised and wrinkled his nose. He didn't expect that he had such dark thoughts in his heart.
Mu Qingxuan lowered her head, a shy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her fingers unconsciously tugged at the hem of her cheongsam.
Seeing this, Huo Changfeng reached out and gently lifted her chin, allowing her to look at him.
Their eyes met, the air was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere, and the temperature was quietly rising.
"I……"
Mu Qingxuan was about to say something when Huo Changfeng's slightly calloused fingers suddenly stroked her lips.
His fingertips were hot and gently stroked Mu Qingxuan's lower lip.
Her breathing became disordered and her cheeks became hot.
Mu Qingxuan raised her eyes and looked at Huo Changfeng. The moment their eyes met, the air around them seemed to be ignited.
Huo Changfeng's Adam's apple rolled violently as he slowly moved closer, his warm breath spraying on Mu Qingxuan's cheek.
Then he placed a soft kiss on her forehead.
Then he slowly descended, following Mu Qingxuan's beautiful bone structure, leaving tiny kisses on her eyebrows, eyes, and nose, and finally stopped on her soft lips.
The kiss was gentle and slow at first, with cautious exploration.
Mu Qingxuan's heart trembled suddenly, and a sweet and numb feeling instantly spread throughout her body.
She unconsciously grabbed Huo Changfeng's shirt with both hands, tilted her head slightly, and responded involuntarily.
Huo Changfeng felt her passion and kissed her harder and harder.
The breathing of the two people intertwined, and Mu Qingxuan felt dizzy and a little unsteady.
The next second, Huo Changfeng suddenly picked her up and carried her to the bed.
*
It was a crazy and hot night.
Mu Qingxuan slept until noon.
Without Mu Qianqian, the troublemaker, and with the Huo family's people becoming more and more fond of her, no one would say anything even if she occasionally slept a little longer.
"Qingxuan, you're awake." Cui Lirong called her, "Auntie Wang left you some breakfast, it's still warm, eat it first and pack up later, we're going to go to the state-owned restaurant."
Mu Qingxuan nodded and smiled: "Okay."
After having a light breakfast, Mu Qingxuan returned to her room, opened the closet, hesitated for a while, and changed into a red blouse with a stand-up collar.
When she walked downstairs, Cui Lirong was surprised: "Why aren't you wearing the cheongsam you bought yesterday?"
Huo Changfeng, who was playing chess with Huo Jianye, paused for a moment after picking up the chess piece and looked over with deep eyes.
Mu Qingxuan bit her lip, feeling a little embarrassed.
She couldn't say that the cheongsam she wore last night had been ruined beyond recognition by Huo Changfeng and was no longer wearable.
Even now, there are still several kiss marks below her collarbone.
If it weren’t for the fact that there was a stand-up collar among the new skirts she bought yesterday, Mu Qingxuan would really have been worried about how to cover up these marks.
Mu Qingxuan hesitated for a long time, and finally said, "Mom, I like this one better."
Cui Lirong nodded without asking any more questions: "Okay, the color of this dress makes you look better and whiter."
She looked up at the clock on the wall and said, "It's almost time, let's go."
Just then the result of the chess game over there came out.
Huo Changfeng waved his chess piece unceremoniously and captured Huo Jianye's general.
Huo Jianye's face froze and he sighed: "The disciple is better than the master."
Cui Lirong teased: "You haven't won since your son went to high school. You are a bad chess player, you are bad at chess and you love to play."
Huo Jianye glared at her fiercely: "What do you know? I was deliberately giving in to my son."
"Tsk." Cui Lirong didn't buy it and rolled her eyes.
Mu Qingxuan took the opportunity to walk to Huo Changfeng, glanced at him coquettishly, and whispered sweetly: "It's all your fault, otherwise I could wear that cheongsam and my mother wouldn't ask about it."
Huo Changfeng's Adam's apple rolled up and down.
My mind couldn't help but recall the beauty of last night.
His eyes darkened, and he leaned over to whisper in her ear, apologetically saying, "I'll compensate you with ten more."
"That's more like it."
Mu Qingxuan smiled with satisfaction and got into Huo Changfeng's car.
Because it was just a custom to celebrate Huo Changfeng's survival from a disaster and his good fortune in the future, and not a big happy event like a promotion or a move to a new house, the Huo family only set up a medium-sized banquet in the state-owned restaurant and reserved the entire first floor.
I invited some relatives, friends, and colleagues with whom I have a good relationship to the dinner.
As time passed, guests arrived one after another.
“You’re here.”
Mu Qingxuan raised her eyebrows, somewhat surprised.
I didn't expect that after Mu Qianqian had caused so much trouble, Shi Feihua, a petty-minded man, was still willing to take her out.
Mu Qianqian hunched her shoulders and walked one step behind Shi Feihua.
She looked at the charming Mu Qingxuan standing next to Huo Changfeng. She could hear the guests' praises for Mu Qingxuan and a hint of deep jealousy flashed in her eyes.
Mu Qianqian pulled the corner of her mouth and was about to say something when the Stone Mother behind her raised her eyebrows, stretched out her hand, and pinched Mu Qianqian's waist hard when no one was paying attention.
Mu Qianqian's face turned pale with pain and she almost screamed.
The Stone Mother glared at her.
That look clearly said one thing: Shut up!
Mu Qianqian bit her lip aggrievedly and lowered her head.
Mother Shi came forward and socialized with Cui Lirong, then changed the topic to Mu Qingxuan: "Sister-in-law, this is Qingxuan, she is so pretty, from a distance, she looks like a movie star."
Cui Lirong's smile deepened as she said meaningfully, "Qianqian from your family is not bad either."
Shi Mu's face froze and she glared at Mu Qianqian fiercely again.
After all, she is Huo Jianye's biological sister. Cui Lirong made a veiled sarcastic remark and then called the Shi family to come in and sit down.
At this moment, a middle-aged man with a back as straight as a pine tree suddenly rushed over aggressively.
