Hmm, when did this guy become so mushy?
Also, he must have done it on purpose!
She's not a toy, and he's gotten addicted to pinching her cheeks.
Bai Xiaoruo retaliated without backing down, after all, this was something that could only be done openly in front of Xian Mingyu's parents.
She looked at him with a forced smile, then pinched his face with both hands. "My husband is the best."
It's so soft and smooth, it doesn't look like a man's skin at all, um~ it's so nice to pinch.
Xuan Mingyu looked at Bai Xiaoruo, who was happily pinching his cheeks, with surprise. "Oh ho, this little girl has grown up. She even dares to pinch my cheeks."
He knew that even if he was unhappy, he wouldn't get angry at Xian Shaodong and Fang Peiru in front of them.
The way the two of them pinched and rubbed each other was seen by the elders as a very close and affectionate young couple.
It seems that even Xian Mingyu has his moments of being caught in the crossfire; he's really done for by running into Bai Xiaoruo.
***
After breakfast, Xuan Mingyu helped Bai Xiaoru put on a coat, then a scarf and a hat, afraid that she would get cold.
Bai Xiaoruo felt a little hot from being fully armed all at once.
"Can you not wear so many clothes? It's so hot."
"No way," Xuan Mingyu said, rejecting her outright.
It's warm inside, but there's no heating outside.
And it's snowing heavily right now, so we have to wear thick snow boots.
Only after she got into the car did Hsien Ming-yu allow her to take off her hat and scarf for a short while.
Bai Xiaoruo, who had been holding back her words for a long time, finally couldn't help but ask him, "Just now, during breakfast, you told Mom that I'm the person you like, that I am...?"
"Of course it's fake. You believe whatever I say? I would never like a brat like you!" Xuan Mingyu answered her without hesitation.
He turned his face away and looked out the car window, as if he was trying to escape something. Bai Xiaoru's excited face instantly fell.
"oh."
They called her a little brat again!
Does he think she's just a little child?
If he really treated her like a little kid, why would he always touch her inappropriately?
She was so happy for nothing; she thought he really liked her...
When Xian Mingyu turned around, he saw Bai Xiaoruo's face full of disappointment. Why would she react so strongly to what he said was all a lie?
This silly girl, could it be that she's actually expecting something?
"Oh what... Bai Xiaoruo, you wouldn't actually like me, would you?" He suddenly leaned in, only two or three centimeters away from her face; any closer and he would be kissing her.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't!" Bai Xiaoruo turned her head away, placing her hand on his chest to keep her distance. "You... you have so many women around you, whoever likes you is in big trouble."
"How did I become so unlucky? Which eye of yours saw that I had too many women around me? Didn't I explain it to you at the ancestral hall last time? Those women have no real relationship with me."
"What do you mean there's no real relationship? You're always hugging so many women coming and going, are you chatting and playing cards upstairs?" Bai Xiaoruo's tone was sour. Okay, she admitted that she was indeed petty, but she just didn't like Xuan Mingyu being with those messy women.
"Why should I tell you?" Xuan Mingyu didn't continue the conversation with her on this topic.
Of course, he couldn't let her know what those women were for.
In fact, nothing actually happened between him and those women. He was just trying to intimidate Bai Xiaoruo by hugging different women every day, to let her know how many women were begging to get close to him, and that he didn't need her at all. Since she dared to cheat on him with Ji Ziqian, he certainly wouldn't show weakness to her.
As for the moaning and screaming of those women upstairs every day, it was actually just that Hsien Ming-yu threw a few checks at them and told them to put on an act.
Every time he succeeded, he would give them a set of the latest designer clothes and a newest bag.
The women changed into new clothes first, then tore up their old clothes and threw them everywhere, creating a disgusting scene. Meanwhile, Xuan Mingyu sat on the sofa with his head down, playing on his phone. When it was time, he let them go downstairs.
Even the things they said to Bai Xiaoruo downstairs were things that Xuan Mingyu had instructed them to do beforehand, specifically to provoke Bai Xiaoruo.
Although my voice was almost hoarse from shouting, the job was incredibly lucrative, and I knew countless women would be vying for it because of the latest designer clothes and bags.
Looking back now, that action was indeed very childish, and seeing Bai Xiaoruo really cry and look so devastated, Xuan Mingyu also felt inexplicably bad.
Perhaps even he himself didn't realize how much he cared about Bai Xiaoruo and how strong his possessiveness towards her had become.
The things he said to Fang Peiru at breakfast weren't entirely lies; in the whole world, besides him, he wouldn't allow anyone else to bully her.
And the embrace she could rely on could only be his; no other man could.
......
Perhaps because she had gotten up too early in the morning, Bai Xiaoruo fell asleep in Xuan Mingyu's arms not long after the car started driving.
Xian Mingyu looked down at Bai Xiaoruo, who was sleeping soundly with her head tilted against him. Sometimes he wondered if she was a pig reincarnated, how could she sleep so much, whether it was morning or night, she would fall asleep as soon as she got in the car.
When the car arrived at the commercial street, the driver had to park the car in the parking lot first, and then Xuan Mingyu prepared to carry the sleeping Bai Xiaoruo out of the car.
