Chapter 122

Mu Chongyan naturally didn’t respond. He not only kept quiet, he even enticed and coaxed Bai Rong to ‘help’ him out twice.

Once on the bed and once in the shower.

Half an hour later, Bai Rong laid weakly in Mu Chongyan’s arms, feeling sore and devoid of strength. His eyelids drooped and his cheeks flushed red, feeling completely spent.

“Rongrong…” Mu Chongyan carried Bai Rong out of the bathroom, the look in his eyes filled with so much affection it could drown someone. He emitted an air so sweet it could choke single dogs to death.

Bai Rong laid in Mu Chongyan’s arms, feeling so embarrassed he wanted to bury his face in Mu Chongyan’s chest while feeling somewhat angry.

He clearly said he would only do it once. In the end, after they had helped each other out on the bed, while cleaning him off in the shower, he actually….he actually tempted him to do it once more.

He was simply….too unrestrained!!!

QAQ…..He was so tired and his body felt empty.

Feeling Mu Chongyan’s hot gaze on him, Bai Rong naturally had a reaction, however, he was too exhausted to show it, his eyelids feeling too heavy to lift up. And the moment he sunk onto the bed, the God of Dreams called on him to play chess….

And so, between facing his wife in embarrassment or playing chess with the God of Dreams, Bai Rong decisively chose the latter.

Hearing Bai Rong’s gradually lengthening and soft breaths, Mu Chongyan felt amused and helpless on the inside. He gently left a kiss on Bai Rong’s eyelids and dark long eyelashes, his heart melting into a puddle of water and the look in his eyes so deep it could drown anyone.

“Go to sleep….”

Mu Chongyan didn’t leave. He pulled open Bai Rong’s covers and went inside, gently taking the person in his arms.

After having received mutual help today, he could no longer bear to live a life of sleeping in separate beds with Little Sweet Cake….

…..

The next day

Bai Rong woke up, and the sight of his wife’s handsome and angular face entered his view. He paused in surprise for a moment, the memories of yesterday flooding in.

“!!!” Bai Rong nearly felt his heart stop, his face heating up.

Realizing that he had actually slept in Mu Chongyan’s arms, his head resting on Mu Chongyan’s strong arms, hands pressed against Mu Chongyan’s pecs, Bai Rong’s face grew even hotter. He wanted to move his hands away but couldn’t.

He certainly had to admit that his wife’s physique was nothing short of amazing…

Bai Rong laid in Mu Chongyan’s arms and slightly raised his head up to look at his countenance, a moving light rippled in the depths of his eyes like the first ray of light in the morning shining on a flower with dewdrop.

Feeling this gaze, the wife-fanatic Mu Chongyan magically awoke from his slumber and opened his eyes.

“Rongrong…”

Mu Chongyan’s slightly hoarse and magnetic voice sounded inexplicably sexy. Bai Rong blinked his watery eyes, not knowing what he should say, only humming in acknowledgement.

Seeing his Little Sweet Cake’s adorably dazed appearance, Mu Chongyan immediately leaned down and pecked Bai Rong’s head, chuckling, “How long have you been awake?”

Sigh, last night he ended up looking at Little Sweet Cake until midnight and was awake throughout the whole night. This certainly wasn’t good.

“Not long.” Bai Rong’s voice was soft, “just….three to four minutes.”

“Then what was Rongrong doing in those three to four minutes…could it be…you were watching me?”

“!!!” Bai Rong puffed up his blushing face, “Who….Who’s watching you.”

“Rongrong wasn’t looking at me? I’m sad….” After having eaten meat, Mu Chongyan started to act playfully dramatic.

“I-It’s not that I didn’t look at you at all…” Bai Rong looked up at Mu Chongyan, his dark crow eyes blinking. He poked Mu Chongyan’s chest, “When you woke up, I was just looking at you…”

“Really?” Mu Chongyan tightened his hold on him, pulling him closer so that there was only less than 5 cm of distance between the tips of their noses. His lips curled up into a smile, the depths of his eyes appearing like the starry sky, “I also want to keep looking at Rongrong…”

“Mm….I see…” Bai Rong felt his ears turn inexplicably hot from his words and averted his gaze, whispering, “Chongyan…we should get up.”

It was already 9am. If they didn’t get up soon, father-in-law would surely realize he had held up his wife in bed and that would only invite trouble!

“Alright. What does Rongrong want to eat for breakfast?” Mu Chongyan pecked him on the lips before reluctantly getting up. His bare body emitted lazy yet strong hormones, the movement of his perfect muscle contours were displayed vividly, becoming a fatal sight for the eyes!

Bai Rong silently held his abdomen and frowned. Why didn’t his abs look this distinct! How annoying!

After Mu Chongyan got off the bed, the first thing he did was to order the servants to prepare breakfast according to Bai Rong’s taste. He originally wanted to go to the kitchen himself and feed his Little Sweet Cake but due to being engrossed in heaven yesterday, he got up late today.

It was fine, there were still other opportunities.

Seeing Mu Chongyan get up, Bai Rong also silently got up, wearing a bathrobe to the bathroom. He needed to hurry up. His father-in-law may have already eaten breakfast long ago. What if he suddenly dropped by his room for a visit?

Bai Rong had been thinking too much as Xia Qingshu was currently half-lying in bed, enjoying Luo Ersi’s currying and indulgent feeding.

However, this was something Luo Ersi should have done either way. Otherwise, he would’ve gotten up early. Xia Qingshu rubbed his waist and thought.

After Bai Rong and Mu Chongyan finished washing up, they went downstairs to have breakfast. Breakfast was delicious after having consumed a lot of energy during yesterday’s exercise. Bai Rong managed to eat three steamed dumplings, two prawn dumplings, one slice of toast and one bowl of fish ball congee in one sitting.

“Whew….”

After the meal, Bai Rong laid on the sofa motionless.

He finally knew why men easily gained fat after marriage. It was because their wife’s demands were tiring! Everybody needed to eat until they replenished their energy, so how could one not get fat!

After Mu Chongyan finished eating, he sat beside Bai Rong and took him into his arms, rubbing his belly with amusement in his eyes.

“Are you full?”

“Yeah.” Bai Rong looked at him with a tsundere face that said ‘Isn’t it all because of you?’ Mu Chongyan couldn’t help but laugh seeing this, pinching the fat in his waist, “If you’re full, you should walk around. Let me take you strolling around the garden alright?”

Feeling it tickly, Bai Rong burst into laughter, “Ahahaha….don’t pinch that place….Chongyan…don’t pitch…”

Originally, Mu Chongyan was only planning to pinch it but seeing Bai Rong’s face, his hand couldn’t stop and he turned him over , “It tickles?….”

“Hahaha…Ahahahah it tickles…it ticklesss….Mu Chongyan, stop, don’t pinch….Hahhahha don’t pinch…”

When Xia Qingshu arrived, he heard Bai Rong’s laughing plea and his old face reddened immediately. He thought about leaving first but just as he was about to turn back, Mu Chongyan spotted him.

“Dad!”

Hearing that his father-in-law had arrived, Bai Rong’s heart nearly stopped. He quickly sat up properly and wiped the tears from his eyes, secretly casting a glare at Mu Chongyan.

It was all because of his wife. Was this not an attempt to sabotage his mature and dependable image in his father-in-law’s heart!

“Uncle Xia.” Bai Rong smiled.

“Sorry to have disturbed you.” Xia Qingshu walked over and sat down on the sofa across from them, “How was your rest?”

“Our rest was very good.” Bai Rong put on a serious look. “We’re ready to report for duty tomorrow!”

He needed to redeem his mature and dependable tough man image.

“How could you go that quickly?” Xia Qingshu chuckled, “You’ve been exhausted for such a long time. How could a short rest be enough? Your father has arranged fifteen days of leave for you from the military so take a good rest and play well during this period. There should still be a lot of places in Sheng Ya that Rongrong hasn’t visited right?”

Fifteen days of leave!

Happiness came way too abruptly!!

“…..En, it’s nothing.” Even though he was very excited on the inside, on the surface, Bai Rong pretended he was aloof.

“Then, let dearie take you out on a stroll.”

“I was also thinking that. I was about to ask leave from father. Thanks dad, thanks father.” Mu Chongyan held Bai Rong’s hand and said.

“What do you have to thank us for? Aren’t we family?” Xia Chongyan smiled and looked at Mu Chongyan, “Dearie, there’s one more thing we have to tell you. However….whether you want to go or not, your father and I won’t force you.”

“What is it?” Seeing his dad suddenly grow serious, Mu Chongyan adjusted his expression accordingly, “Dad, tell me.”

“It’s about Mu Fenglan.”

“Mu Fenglan?!” The look in Mu Chongyan’s eyes changed. “What does he want?”

He remembered that he had asked Du Han to send him the truth and the evidence of the matters that transpired that year. Qas he still obstinate about keeping to his original thoughts and planning something?

“Sigh….” Xia Qingshu sighed, feeling complicated as well. He didn’t know what feelings to hold towards Mu Fenglan and because of what he did, he certainly didn’t want to meet him, but because he had helped save Rongrong’s life, he couldn’t pretend that it never happened.

“Dearie, Mu Fenglan isn’t looking to pick a fight this time.”

“Then what is it?”

“Sigh…” Xia Qingshu turned to Bai Rong and said, “Rongrong, remember before you got kidnapped, a red mech was desperately trying to save you?”

“I do.” Bai Rong nodded. “He helped me buy me three to four minutes of time. If it weren’t for him, I could’ve…”

Mu Chongyan’s held Bai Rong’s hand tighter.

He naturally knew what three to four minutes meant because without that, under that pervert’s hands, Rongrong could’ve been…….

“The person in the red mech was Mu Fenglan.” Xia Qingshu didn’t even tiptoe around the two, throwing out the bomb immediately.

“Mu Fenglan?!!!”

The two people were thoroughly shocked, the look on Mu Chongyan’s face particularly complicated.

“That’s right. It was Mu Fenglan. He received heavy injuries, having to amputate both legs, and his aptitude is continuously declining. He’s now at Level C and I fear that if this continues on…he will turn into a complete waste.” Xia Qingshu couldn’t tell if he was feeling grateful or carefree on the inside. In the beginning, He Erya injected a virus to his Dearie, intending to wreck his aptitude and physical body. Now, the tables had turned, the one whose aptitude was suffering, was Mu Fenglan.

He paused for a while before continuing, “Mu Fenglan wants to see you. Dearie, do you want to see him?”

In truth, Mu Fenglan wanted to meet him and Xia Qingshu, however, even though Luo Ersi was well into his years, his jealousy was still uncontainable. He said he would properly consider it and didn’t permit him to meet Mu Fenglan alone.

Speechless, Xia Qingshu also didn’t want to meet Mu Fenglan alone.

“What about father?” Mu Chongyan suddenly asked.

“Your father’s gone to meet the Star Region Alliance’s chairman. The chairman said that because Sheng Ya had made a large contribution in this war, preventing the war from further escalating, they had decided to break the once-every-fifty-years assessment limit to reevaluate Sheng Ya’s Star Region Level again.”

“I see.” Mu Chongyan knew the alliance wanted to have Sheng Ya sit in the permanent council member position. After all, once the seat was filled, Sheng Ya would bear more responsibilities as well as have more restrictions.

And though the seat naturally came with benefits, with its current strength, Sheng Ya didn’t need those benefits.

“So….” Xia Qingshu brought the topic back, “Dearie, do you want to meet Mu Fenglan?”
