Chapter 224 - Indirectly Hinting That I'm A Nuisance

Yue Wan found his gaze weird. Knowing this pervert was never up to good. "Why are you staring at me like that?"

Xiao Hua looked at her adorable yet pale face and he stood up immediately to walk over. 

Yue Wan was flabbergasted for a second, as she was swiftly carried in his arms. Before she could protest, a warm breath whispered in her ear. "Be obedient and stay still!"

Under his gaze, she felt like he had eyes only for her, which caused a sudden surge of emotion in her heart.

Xiao Hua carried her to the bed and carefully put her down. While she was enraptured in his world, Xiao Hua moved her legs over and sat next to her and placed them on his lap. His palms wrapped around her feet, then, his slender fingers began to massage them slowly."Where does it hurt?"

Yue Wan's eyes warmed with his concern and care for her. Like a spoiled child, she rubbed her arm pitifully and grieved: "My chest, calves, back, ankles…Everywhere it hurts. My muscles are aching and painful!"

Xiao Hua knitted his sharp brows, he could feel her breathing stagnating, and her tone turned hoarse. His heart ached for her: "You haven't exercised for a long time that is why you are like this."

Xiao Hua took her whole leg on his lap and gave a warm massage everywhere. His massage technique was very gentle. After the initial soreness had gone away, Yue Wan's body started to relax and become comfortable."I know you're very busy at work. On top of it, traveling this much back and forth a day is not good for health. Be more thoughtful of your body."

The corner of Xiao Hua's almond-shaped eyes revealed a few wrinkle lines that spread out beautifully as he smiled. He let her sit on his lap and held her tightly: "So you do care about me? Eh?"

Yue Wan wanted to get free but softened upon hearing his tired voice. She leaned on his chest quietly and blushed as she felt his heart pounding. "It's just that…" she fiddled with his shirt button. "I missed you."

Her voice was like a mouse squealed.

Xiao Hua's mouth curved into a smug smile, as his heart skipped a beat hearing her words. "I missed you too, wild cub. So much. I want to spend as much time with you as possible." 

Yue Wan stiffened but immediately felt warm and nice. She laid her hands on his chest, feeling his strong heartbeat through her palms, she stared at his purple eyes. "You know, Grandpa Xiao likes me now. He even asked me to serve him tea."

He smiled, tucking a lock of long, silky hair behind her ear. "Who wouldn't like my cute wild cub?"

She pressed her body against him and laid her head on his shoulder: "Even Bao Bao got so many admirers in the Xiao house too. And there are so many things that happened yesterday, you know that dumb cousin of yours...."

Yue Wan carefully explained the scene that happened yesterday. While explaining where little Bao attacked Xiao Shen, she remembered her son hadn't returned.

"Little Bao?"A furrow appeared between her brows as she looked everywhere.

Patting her head, Xiao Hua assured her: "Xiang must have him. I will check it out." 

Recalling that he took a long journey to come here, Yue Wan shook her head: "You should have some rest and then eat your dinner. Don't tire yourself out."

Xiao Hua's lips curved into a smile. His future wife cared about him a lot.

"Shall I stay here tonight, then?" he suggested, trying his best to curb his urges to let his hands wander about her body.

Yue Wan snapped back to reality and pushed him off her. She then sprung up from his side while grasping the blanket close to her body and glowered at him. "Hooligan!"

Xiao Hua chuckled and teased. "Where is your tiny mind up to? I said staying not sleeping."

Yue Wan pouted her lip and hid herself under the blanket.

Smirking, Xiao switched off the lamp and stood up: "Sleep tight. I will check that brat son of ours."

Only a groan was heard from the bed.

----With-Yue-Xiang----

In front of the work table, Yue Xiang was sipping his tea while reading the report.

"Ah! Where is my beloved? I heard a cutie pie came with Young Miss Yue." Lin Xu rushed in without knocking the door.

Yue Xiang turned to look skeptically at his good friend who was sitting opposite with a lack of manners, "Why are you here?"

"Xiang is it true? There was a cute little cat soldier in the Yue Military base? Tell me...Tell me." Fireworks exploded in Lin Xu's eyes as he inquired.

When he was returning after completing his mission, he heard that a cute little cat was training under Devil General. The only cat he knew in the Yue family was Little Bao who was his love. So he wildly ran to Yue Xiang's office to confirm it.

"Done with your mission so soon?"

"Xiang, since I finished my mission prior to the deadline can I have a..." Lin Xu was about to say reward when he received a piercing glare from his buddy. 

So he changed course: "Can I go to the training ground and film....."

That threatening gaze remained…

Lin Xu could only change once again: "I mean ..join the Little soldier's training? Pretty pretty pretty please? I will be a very good boy and watch from a distance." His face is full of anticipation and he was very excited to meet Little Bao.

"NO."

"Why not?"

"You'll come there to stick your nose in his training and drool all over the ground." Yue Xiang gave him a look which made Lin Xu feel utterly pathetic and jump into a hole.

"You are indirectly hinting that I'm a nuisance? How could you poke a maiden's heart." Lin Xu snarled.

"Pffff——" Yue Xiang spat his tea out hearing the word maiden. The string of endurance finally snapped. "No one in the world can say it more directly than l just did! You nut case."

"Have I mentioned my growing hate for you?" Lin Xu's face was red in anger.

Yue Xiang's lips smirked while he used the napkin to clean up the mess the tea had made: "At least once a day."

Lin Xu slammed the table and made a teacup jerked by the force, "General Xiang! We can do this hard way or the easy way. What do you choose?"

Yue Xiang stood up and moved closer to Lin Xu. "How about in the old way?"

Suddenly, Lin Xu hugged his knees and looked at Yue Xiang with a twinkle in his eyes: "Master Devil!! Do grant me permission for your sake."

Just then a cold voice said: "Is this lover's spat going on between you two going to last long? Should I wait outside?"

Lin Xu quickly stood up and exclaimed: "Brother Wolf!!"

Touching his temples, Yue Xiang signed in irritation: "Why are you here?"

"Just passing by, don't mind me. You guys can continue with this fight and finish it off with a kiss and makeup scenario," Xiao Hua said.

Yue Xiang scrunched his face in disguise. 'Here come the pain-in-***'

Lin Xu stomped on the floor like a little kid and complained: "Oh for god sake. Don't ship me with this Devil. I will run back to the nunnery."

"Shut up, both of you. I am not repeating myself again." Yue Xiang roared with blackface.

On the spur of that moment, Bai Zhen rushed towards them. Seeing Yue Xiang he made a salute and unhurriedly informed: "He is now conscious."
