C86 – Sitting on the Thigh of Huangfu Shao
Huangfu Qiao hurried to the hospital and, by chance, spotted Mu Sifa bringing Shang Xiaojie into the elevator. Even though he couldn’t clearly see Shang Xiaojie’s face, Huangfu Qiao had a subtle sense that Mu Sifa might have been in tears.The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
“Am I overthinking things?”
Given that Mu Sifa was with Shang Xiaojie, Huangfu Qiao deduced that no one would harm him, leading him to that thought.
While lost in his thoughts watching the elevator, an unexpected shadow emerged behind him. Before he could react, Huangfu Shao swiftly grabbed him by the neck and yanked him away.
“Ease up, big brother. You’re hurting me.” Huangfu Qiao almost lost his balance. Fortunately, he had grown accustomed to Huangfu Shao’s sudden actions and managed not to stumble.
Huangfu Shao remained silent, his face expressionless and cold.
Could he still be upset? The thought unnerved Huangfu Qiao.
Fearing his words might further upset Huangfu Shao, Huangfu Qiao refrained from protesting. He complied and climbed into the car without any fuss.
Watching with apprehension as Huangfu Shao made his way to the driver’s seat, Huangfu Qiao’s anxiety surged once more.
Wait, did the kiss not have any effect? Really? It usually works!
“Do you think a kiss is enough of an apology? Why would I be mad at you?” Huangfu Shao teased.
Caught off guard, Huangfu Qiao stammered, “N-no! How could that be?”
But his face gave him away. Having raised Huangfu Qiao, how could Huangfu Shao not detect the falsehood?
Contrary to appearances, the two weren’t biological siblings. Huangfu Qiao was the offspring of Huangfu Shao’s uncle. After tragedies struck their families, the responsibility of caring for Huangfu Qiao landed on Huangfu Shao.
Initially, Huangfu Shao treated Huangfu Qiao as a younger sibling. However, somewhere along the way, his feelings evolved, and he began to see Huangfu Qiao as a life partner.
Only recently did Huangfu Qiao uncover the truth about Huangfu Shao’s feelings. Otherwise, he’d have always viewed him as an elder brother.
He released Huangfu Qiao’s chin and gestured for him to sit on his lap. His tone remained icy.
“Okay, got it. No need to be so stern! It’s intimidating.”
Though he voiced his complaints, Huangfu Qiao complied and took a seat on Huangfu Shao’s lap. Eventually, he wrapped his arms around Huangfu Shao’s neck, demonstrating his familiarity with the gesture.
