261 Her Tyrannical Behavior

Upon hearing him address her as wifey, Mu Xiaoxiao's ears reddened.

She turned around to leave, but her leg hit the coffee table and made a noise in the dark.

"Be careful," Yin Shaojie's pleasing voice rang out from behind her. Rising from the sofa, he walked towards her, and catching her off guard, he picked her up by her waist.

"Oi! What are you doing!" Mu Xiaoxiao was startled.

"You're so clumsy; I'm worried that you'll bump into something again. Wrap your arms around my neck," he commanded. His muscular arms held her tightly as he walked towards the bedroom.

Even though Mu Xiaoxiao felt a little shy, she still wrapped her arms around his neck as instructed so that she wouldn't fall over.

Yin Shaojie looked down at her and laughed, seeming to remember something.

She could feel his chest vibrate.

She was puzzled. "What're you laughing about?"

Yin Shaojie replied, "Doesn't this seem like I'm carrying my bride into the bridal chamber?"

Mu Xiaoxiao's heart started to beat faster upon hearing this.

Carrying his bride into the bridal chamber…

"Can you stop being so X-rated!" she said, displeased.

"You call this X-rated?" Yin Shaojie chortled evilly. "This isn't even dirty at all, okay? Do you want to experience what really is… X-rated?"

Mu Xiaoxiao's ears were burning. "I don't want to know! Don't you dare say it, you hear!"

Yin Shaojie looked crestfallen. "You really don't want to know?"

"Don't wanna don't wanna don't wanna — "

The pair arrived at the bedroom amid Mu Xiaoxiao's protests.

Yin Shaojie placed Mu Xiaoxiao on the bed. Once she touched the bed, she jumped to a corner of the bed as though she was afraid that he would do something to her. She lifted the covers and wrapped herself in them.

"It's late! Hurry up and sleep! We've got school tomorrow!"

Mu Xiaoxiao shouted before burying her head beneath the covers, her petite frame wrapped under the layers.

Yin Shaojie sighed deeply once he laid down on the bed.

The bed was so comfortable!

To sleep on the sofa was a very miserable experience. At least, it was an extremely miserable experience to him.

It was indeed getting late, and Yin Shaojie decided not to tease her further. Seeing how she had covered herself up made him worry that she would feel too stuffy.

Thus, he tugged on the blankets and asked, "Why are you sleeping like that? Come out!"

Mu Xiaoxiao was a little stuffy and automatically disengaged from the covers.

Before she could say anything, Yin Shaojie patted the blankets and said, "Go to sleep, goodnight."

He closed his eyes and lay on his side, facing her as per habit.

Mu Xiaoxiao shifted into a comfortable position and faced him as well.

The patter of rain outside seemed to soften, and there seemed to be no more thunder.

She stared straight at his handsome face and zoned out, moving closer to him unconsciously.

Even though Yin Shaojie's eyes were closed, he seemed to know that she was staring at him. "Why aren't you sleeping yet?" he whispered.

He wanted to open his eyes, but Mu Xiaoxiao said quickly, "Don't open your eyes!"

In a rare occurrence, Yin Shaojie's eyes remained shut. "Why are you acting so tyrannically?" he chuckled as he said.

"I'm not."

"Are you sure? You even called me tyrannical before, so what about you now?"

Mu Xiaoxiao harrumphed and said, "That's because you spread it to me!"

Yin Shaojie didn't know how to rebut her retort.

He said, "Go sleep. It's really late; if not, you'll have no energy tomorrow."

"Okay." Mu Xiaoxiao nodded. She rubbed her head against the pillow and finally closed her eyes.

In the dark and heads almost touching, the pair fell asleep.
