Chapter 252 - Take A Cold Shower

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Mu Xiaoxiao could tell from his tone that he was in a bad mood. Apparently, he really had slept poorly. His usual devilishly elegant face was grim.

Puzzled, she asked, "If that's the case, why didn't you sleep in the bedroom? The bed is huge. I can't take up the whole bed."

Yin Shaojie narrowed his eyes as he looked at her, but he did not return a reply.

Mu Xiaoxiao felt that he was acting oddly.

Was she right about him?

Was he feeling guilty from kissing her without her knowing that, and now, he was afraid of facing her?

Mu Xiaoxiao laughed inwardly. Who would have thought that Yin Shaojie would be such a coward? How wondrous!

With furrowed brows, he stared at her mouth that was obviously smiling, and he said resentfully, "What are you smiling at? I slept poorly. Are you happy about that?"

"I'm not," Mu Xiaoxiao replied, but her eyes were smiling.

Yin Shaojie was speechless.

Does this wretch not know that her emotions are showing on her face?

Yin Shaojie narrowed his eyes as he thought of something. Suddenly, he reached out his long arm to pull her to his chest, locking her with his arms and pressing her against his chest as he stared at her threateningly and interrogated her, "Did you pull some kind of prank on me? Tell me!"

"I didn't! I really didn't!" Mu Xiaoxiao said, asserting her innocence.

Yin Shaojie said, "I don't believe you. Did you draw something on my face? Otherwise, why are you staring at me and smiling so happily?"

"I'm not! I'm not smiling happily!"

As Mu Xiaoxiao was refuting him, she was trying to contain her smiles and act solemnly.

However, no matter how she tried to feign it, she could not hide her joy showing through her eyes.

The more he looked at her, the more he grew suspicious.

If there is nothing wrong, then why is she feeling so happy early in the morning?

Nothing wrong?

Who would believe that!

Yin Shaojie glanced at the phone on the coffee table. It was too far from his reach.

Unless he let go of her, he wouldn't be able to reach it, but he didn't want to let go of her.

Then, he pointed at the phone with his chin and commanded her, "Pass me the phone."

Mu Xiaoxiao looked innocent and helpless as she obediently reached out to pick up the phone and passed it to him.

Yin Shaojie turned on the front camera to look at his face, and there was really nothing drawn on it. He then released her from his grip.

"Are you still drunk? Why is your face so red?" he asked suspiciously.

"My face is red? It's not!"

Mu Xiaoxiao was lying through her teeth. She touched her cheeks, and they were indeed slightly hot.

It's all his fault!

What's with him hugging me so tightly just now?

When she caught a whiff of the manly fragrance from his body, she had remembered the hot kiss from the last night, and it was hard not to get excited from it.

Yin Shaojie squinted his eyes as he looked at her and said, "You seem to be acting weird today."

Mu Xiaoxiao rebutted, "Y-you're the one who is weird, okay! You have a bed to sleep in. Why did you sleep on the sofa? You always hated sleeping on the sofa back at home!"

At the mention of this topic, Yin Shaojie seemed to have gotten annoyed again.

He pouted and muttered, "If I don't sleep on the sofa, I'd have to take a cold shower again. Then, I'd rather sleep on the sofa."

Mu Xiaoxiao was baffled. "What did you say?"

Take a cold shower?

"It's nothing! I'm going to wash my face. You can think about what you would like for breakfast," Yin Shaojie said as he got up from the sofa and went to the bathroom quickly as if he was avoiding something.
