Chapter 152 - You Are Not Proper!


    “So, it was me who misunderstood!” “Then we won''t do it anymore. If you''re not willing, we can stop.”


    Mu Sifa feigned a helpless sigh but sneakily observed Shang Xiaojie''s reaction from the corner of his eye.


    Shang Xiaojie grew anxious. Though he hadn''t explicitly expressed his fondness for such activities with Mu Sifa, he feared that if he refused now, Mu Sifa might distance himself or even resent him. After all, they shared both their waking and sleeping moments.


    “I never said I wouldn''t apany you.”


    Shang Xiaojie mumbled, his voice tinged with a trace ofint, as he lowered his head.


    Upon hearing Shang Xiaojie''s response, Mu Sifa couldn''t help but chuckle inwardly. It seemed that a bit of teasing worked wonders with Shang Xiaojie.


    “Since my dear husband has consented, I''ll reluctantly agree to apany you! If I can find the time.”


    He yfully cheated and wore a mischievous smile.


    Only then did Shang Xiaojie realize that Mu Sifa had tricked him. His eyes filled with dissatisfaction. “Why are you so naughty!? Always teasing me.”


    “Too much, treating me like a child!” Not anymore.


    “This time, I''m truly ignoring you. I want to sleep.”


    He disentangled himself from Mu Sifa''s embrace, turned his back, and disyed his annoyance.


    Witnessing Shang Xiaojie''s amusing reaction, Mu Sifa swiftly picked him up and cated him, saying, “Alright, alright, it''s my fault. Don''t be mad at your husband.”


    Mu Sifa tenderly kissed Shang Xiaojie to express his apology.


    Shang Xiaojie wasn''t entirely deceived. He huffed and turned his face away, pretending to ignore Mu Sifa. His anger was genuine.


    However, Shang Xiaojie''s anger was only a pretense. He wasn''t truly upset with Mu Sifa and had no intention of punishing him.


    Mu Sifa saw through the act; they were simply ying along.


    “Alright, now that you''re feeling better, let''s head home! Dad and the others must be anxious waiting for news.” Mu Sifa lifted Shang Xiaojie and walked toward the exit.


    Shang Xiaojie was taken aback but didn''t resist Mu Sifa''s embrace. He asked in a daze, “Uncle, are you really worried about me?”


    “Of course, if I hadn''t kept your dad waiting at home for updates, he might have flown over.” Mu Sifa replied with a smile.


    Shang Xiaojie''s face regained its usual blush upon hearing this. Uncle truly cares about me!


    Shang Xiaojie felt an overwhelming happiness because his father and older sister had never expressed such concern for him when he was unwell or faced an ident, leaving him to fend for himself.


    This was why Mu Renying''s worry touched him deeply, making him feel someone cared about his well-being.


    “Uncle is a really nice person.” He wore a warm and innocent smile.


    “What''s so great? He only treats you kindly.” Mu Sifa retorted teasingly.


    Indeed, Mu Renying had disciplined Mu Sifa with a firm hand, but he treated Shang Xiaojie differently.


    “Is that so?” Shang Xiaojie beamed even brighter.


    Mu Sifa frowned, pinched Shang Xiaojie''s buttocks, and adopted a reprimanding tone, saying, “What? Your husband got bullied, and you''re delighted about it, huh?”


    “You''re always teasing me! Uncle scolded you properly.” Shang Xiaojie stuck his tongue out at Mu Sifa, making a face.


    “Alright, Shang Xiaojie. You''re bing bolder and mischievous, aren''t you!? When we get home, we''ll see how I''ll handle you.”


    His voice carried a hint of danger, and he seemed poised to teach Shang Xiaojie a lesson. What kind of lesson was this? Though he didn''t explicitly state it, Shang Xiaojie understood quite well! Otherwise, his face wouldn''t be as red as a cooked prawn.


    “You, you''re bad, alwaysing after me,” he shyly scolded.
