After all, Mu Xiaoxiao has Yin Shaojie, that extremely jealousy-prone guy beside her, so getting close to her would not be an easy task.
Feng Shengyang put a piece of orange in his mouth, his eyes narrowed, and his voice said in a beguiling tone.
“The legendary Mu family, huh… Interesting.”
…
At the Yin residence.
The afterglow of sunset was still lingering over the sky. Yin Shaojie rushed back to the house, and when he entered the door, he hurriedly greeted his mother before rushing to the room.
Mama Yin laughed as she watched from behind him, “This kid is forgetting his mother now that he has a wife.”
Then she turned around and told the helper to prepare to serve the meals.
Upon coming to the door, Yin Shaojie’s footsteps slowed down and he opened the door lightly.
The lights in the room were off, and it was dark.
Just when he was thinking if he should turn on the lights without waking her up, he heard Xiaoxiao’s voice saying, “You’re back?”
“Yeah. Do you feel better?” Yin Shaojie nodded as he walked to the bed in a few long strides.
Then, he turned on the bedside lamp and adjusted it to the lowest brightness, so as not to make her feel the glare.
Mu Xiaoxiao didn’t want to get up from the bed, her head turned to the side as she looked at him with some annoyance.
Sitting at the edge of the bed, Yin Shaojie reached out and touched her forehead to check her temperature.
It seemed that it was no longer hot.
He then felt a huge relief.
“Have you been lying like this the whole day? Did you get up at noon for lunch? Are you hungry now?” he asked a few questions consecutively with an affectionate gaze.
Mu Xiaoxiao sat herself up. Yin Shaojie erected the pillow so she could lean against it.
“Have you seen Su Lin?” she asked, her expression was complex.
Yin Shaojie smiled, squeezed her nose, and he laughed, “What? You’re only getting jealous now?”
“I thought… you might have something to tell me.” Mu Xiaoxiao stared at his eyes to observe his expression.
If at this moment, he showed even a tinge of guilt…
Mu Xiaoxiao’s heart grew heavy. There was a conflicting tug-of-war in her mind.
Should she ask him directly to clarify the matter or should she wait for him to tell her honestly about it?
Although she was quite impatient, she wanted to sort things out immediately whenever things came along…
… if he would only be forthcoming about things after she questioned him every time, what would be the point of that?
If he couldn’t take the initiative to be forthcoming with her, how could this relationship last?
After some thought, she decided to endure it for a while and wait to see how he would act.
If it was not satisfactory…
Mu Xiaoxiao snorted inwardly.
Yin Shaojie thought she was talking about the matter of visiting Su Lin, so he explained to her, “Don’t worry. I didn’t go to the hospital alone. Shijun and Qiqing were there too. And we have agreed that I have to take care of you for these few days, so I won’t be going to visit. Shijun will be responsible for representing us, going to the hospital every day to visit Su Lin and relieve her boredom.”
His expression seemed to be saying: “Are you satisfied now? Don’t be jealous.”
How could Mu Xiaoxiao be satisfied? She only thought he was trying to avoid talking about the matter she was actually concerned about!
She probed, “Then?”
“Then? Then we all went home separately. I rushed back to see you.” Yin Shaojie held up her hand and kissed it. “You seem to be looking much better now. That’s a load off my mind.”
“You really…” You have nothing else to say to me?
Mu Xiaoxiao wanted to give him another chance, but then, the helper knocked on the door and said from outside, “Young master, Miss, Madam asked if you would like the meal to be served now?”
