Chapter 117: Hug Him!

“I meant what I said, Young Master Shen. or could it be that you are illiterate enough not to understand this much? Why should I go with someone who’s been trying to gobble up my soon- to- be consort with his eyes?”

“…!!!”

Shen Xia was shocked, and so were the people around the room. Yun Shu was really direct just now, not leaving Shen Xia any corner to retreat.

“Th-that…!” Shen Xia flushed in embarrassment as he tried to say something, but couldn’t find any words to convince him.

Suddenly he remembered his father’s words,

Remember not to mess with him, he is our very very important guest, so make sure to watch your behavior around him.

’It’s a mess. If I fail to take him with me, then father…’

He didn’t even want to think about the consequences he might have to face, Shen Xia fell into a deep thought.

’Do I… have to apologize to him? Is it the only way I can get away from this predicament?’

Shen Xia was frustrated by his own fault, while Bai Yunxian felt amazed with every passing second.

“… I apologize for my rudeness, I’ll ask the Young Lord to look it over just this once, please.” Shen Xia closed his eyes tightly as he bowed over 90 degrees, which brought a wicked smirk on Yun Shu’s face that she couldn’t help but hide with her hands.

“Hmm, since you are being polite, I’ll let it go this time. Get out and wait for me, I’ll come after I’m done getting ready.” Yun Shu waved her hand lightly to shoo him away, it was the same as shaming Shen Xia.

“Yes, Young Lord.”

Of course, Shen Xia didn’t have anything else to do aside from eating the dog shit and leaving quietly, keeping his head down.

“Huh, he’s finally gone. Such a shithead…” Yun Shu mumbled as she took a long breath, dealing with those potential male leads was so troublesome.

’Why can’t I have Xian xian for myself without any interference from those damned trash heads? It’s really pissing me off!’

When Yun Shu was thinking of all sorts of things, Bai Yunxian was lost in awe behind the curtains, frozen.

’Did the Lord just… k-k-k-kiss me???’

’And so many times at once?!’

The realization hit him, which made Bai Yunxian blush from head to toe.

’How did I come here again?’ He felt dizzy as he was thinking all sorts of things, trying his best to forget what happened just now.

’This is just for work. It’s acting… there’s no way he did it because he wanted to, come back to your senses, you dumb head!’

Bai Yunxian slapped his face lightly as he looked at the back of Yun Shu, in an instant his face went even redder.

Just as he hid his face in his hands ashamed, the conversation came to his ears.

’What was that?’

’Is it really the Young Master Shen that I knew?’

Shen Xia, who was arrogant and prideful, wouldn’t spare any man lower than him to even glance at him, was bowing his head and apologizing?

Bai Yunxian’s heart was filled with pride, because the man he chose was always the best no matter where he went.

’I’ll do anything if it means to keep him safe, even if I have to face that man and his son.’

Bai Yunxian was determined as he smiled at Yun Shu, when at the same time the man in blue robe was finding his way to meet them.

***

Right after their arrival, Yun Shu was called in the Great Hall of the Shen family, where only exclusive guest of Patriarch Shen can enter.

’Looks like they hold him in high regard, which means he has something that the Patriarch Shen wants to get. None of my business anyway, because I came to get, not to give!’

Yun Shu thought as she walked down the aisle, with Bai Yunxian by her side.

Right now, Bai Yunxian’s entire body was covered in a shawl that Yun Shu personally made him wear. And she warned him not to take it off until she commands.

“I don’t like showing off my possessions. Keep it this way and don’t take it off unless I tell you to.” Yun Shu said with an annoyed voice as she wrapped the shawl around Bai Yubxian tightly, to which he couldn’t help but laugh.

“Haha, my lord… you are suffocating me.” Bai Yunxian suddenly had a thought provoking idea to tease Yun Shu, so he pretended to be uncomfortable.

“…! Did I? I’m sorry, I didn’t want to make you suffocate, wait… I’ll look for something else…” Yun Shu’s reaction was unexpectedly gentle and startled, as if Bai Yunxian was something precious. Precious enough to care for him so much.

“Wait! My Lord, it’s alright. It was a joke. I’m fine, I only wanted you to be at ease, it feels as if you are troubled by something. I’m really fine.” Bai Yunxian hurriedly tried to stop Yun Shu, but the look of concern she had for him in her eyes were real.

“Are you truly sure you don’t feel uncomfortable?”

“If My Lord stays by my side then I’m really fine!” Bai Yubxian suddenly hugged Yun Shu as he froze.

’Wait! What did I just do?!’

It’s as if like an old habit, Bai Yunxian hugged Yun Shu’s waist and put his head on her chest, but he’s never been so intimate with him before, did he?

Even so, when Bai Yunxian was about to let go of Yun Shu, he felt a pair of hands wrap around his waist, making him unable to move or push her away.

’What if this? I’m sure Bai Yunxian from this time doesn’t remember the times we spent together? Does he?’

Or was it a reflex because we cuddled a few times before?

Whatever it was, Yun Shu didn’t want to think of anything for now, because this moment was very important to her.
