Chapter 568: My Eyes Are Burning

With that, he pulled Jing Xi onto his lap and said earnestly, “Wifey, remember this: the next time you meet a dirty perv like him, don’t hit him with your hands. It would kill me to see you injuring your lovely hands. You should kick him instead, viciously, with everything you’ve got. If he ends up buying the farm, that’s fine, I’ll handle it.”

As soon as he heard that, Mu Chenguang put his hands to his head and shouted, “Are you friggin’ serious?!”

He hadn’t expected Huo Yunshen to turn into such a scary person after falling in love—apparently everyone else was cannon fodder to him if it meant protecting his “wifey.”

“Hahaha…”

Xu Xiyan burst into laughter. She was feeling all warm and fuzzy inside; being pampered by her prince charming was even better than she imagined.

“Hungry?” asked Huo Yunshen, tilting his head.

Xu Xiyan nodded. With his chopsticks, Huo Yunshen selected the choicest piece of meat from the dishes he had prepared and lifted it towards her mouth. “Here, eat this.”

Xu Xiyan opened her mouth and obediently ate it.

Beside them, Mu Chenguang gaped openly at what he was seeing. He was sure Huo Yunshen had never done anything like that with a woman, any woman.

Huo Yunshen had always seemed like a stoic, impassive man immune to love—but here he was, feeding his girlfriend.

Mu Chenguang found it difficult to reconcile the Huo Yunshen before him with the Huo Yunshen he knew. He clucked his tongue and asked, “Bro, didn’t you prepare all these dishes for me?”

When he had first arrived, Huo Yunshen had asked him whether he’d had his dinner. Mu Chenguang had said no, and yet…

“Nope. I don’t have anything for you. I made all these specifically for Jing Xi.”

Pfffft…

Mu Chenguang could feel an aneurysm coming on. “Bro, why’d you ask me to come? I thought you wanted to discuss a new song, but now it looks like you just want someone to watch you scatter dog food. Feeding each other in broad daylight? Seriously? Have a heart for us single dogs!”

“Shut up, you talk too much. Go do a sound check. Scram.”

Huo Yunshen tossed the music score and lyrics onto Mu Chenguang’s face.

Mu Chenguang resigned himself to his fate. He gathered the papers and walked off, protesting loudly as he went. “Next time you toss something into my super handsome uber cool face, I’ll raise hell with the both of you. I mean it, I can throw a tantrum at the drop of a hat. You just wait, I’ll get a girlfriend and make the both of you go green with envy… hmmph…”

Xu Xiyan watched Mu Chenguang’s retreating back, unable to decide whether to roll her eyes or be amused. The man who usually looked so serious and mature evidently had the reasoning skills of a petulant little boy.

Mu Chenguang was such a weirdo. Xu Xiyan couldn’t help but wonder what kind of woman would get together with him.

Xu Xiyan laughed. She asked Huo Yunshen, “He’s so funny. Why didn’t I notice he’s such a goof?”

“That’s because he pretends to be deep and profound most of the time. Don’t be fooled by him now, he can be quite the lady-killer when he puts his mind to it.”

“Hahaha, you think he’ll be able to charm me with his methods? There’s only one man in the whole wide world who can sweep me off my feet.”

Xu Xiyan smiled as she held Huo Yunshen’s face in her hands. She lowered her head and gave him a quick peck on the lips.

She had been swept off her feet by Huo Yunshen and was now fully under his spell. She would remain in his thrall for the rest of her life.

She had only just pulled away from his lips when Huo Yunshen’s large, sturdy hand clasped the back of her head and pressed her towards him once more. Their lips met for a second time.

Huo Yunshen was supposed to be feeding her, but somewhere along the way it had turned into a make-out session.

The last rays from the setting sun enveloped the both of them, gilding them with a warm golden glow.

Huo Yunshen and Xu Xiyan were madly in love. They were inseparable. They wanted only to spend every minute of every day together, and shower each other with love.

Mu Chenguang realized he had forgotten to ask Huo Yunshen something, and turned back to look for him—only to be greeted with the sight of the two lovebirds kissing under the pergola.

Mu Chenguang immediately covered his eyes. Dammit, he thought, my eyes are burning!

He knew he had to stop being a ‘single dog.’ He had to get a nice, wholesome lady to be his girlfriend ASAP—then he’d be able to kiss her, hug her, and lift her in the air every day.

He swore to himself that he was going to return all the dog food he had been forced to swallow today.
