Chapter 157: Going Home
“Ah~ ugh… I can’t anymore, I… I can’t eat another bite…”
Her small body leaned back, and Lin Muxi collapsed weakly into the chair. She rubbed her stomach, which was already too full, while letting out little burps.
Looking at Mo Ziyang’s gentle face, if she didn’t know he was her boyfriend, Lin Muxi would almost think Mo Ziyang was raising her like a pet.
Even though she couldn’t eat anymore… her good bro kept feeding her spoon after spoon, saying, “Just one more bite.”
Ugh… annoying!
Thinking of this, Lin Muxi suddenly felt upset and swung a little fist at Mo Ziyang sitting next to her.
“Hm? What’s wrong?”
Mo Ziyang turned his head in confusion, looking at his little wife after being hit out of nowhere. For a moment, he didn’t even understand what just happened.
But when he thought about it carefully, he realized he hadn’t done anything wrong to this girl, so why was he suddenly being hit?
“Look at me! See what you made me into by feeding me.”
“I just didn’t want you to get hungry on the plane.”
Facing Lin Muxi’s watery eyes, Mo Ziyang explained, while reaching out to pinch her soft little cheeks.
So cute. No doubt she was his future wife.
The chubby feel of her cheeks made Mo Ziyang smile with satisfaction.
But when Lin Muxi saw that smile, she didn’t think the same at all.
At least in her eyes, he was definitely laughing at her!
So…
“You’re laughing! You’re laughing at me on purpose!”
Angry, Lin Muxi suddenly sat up straight, grabbed her good bro’s shirt, and stared at him with her round, angry eyes.
But with her red cheeks, mixed with both shame and anger, she didn’t look threatening at all to Mo Ziyang. Instead, she looked more like a cute, helpless little wife pouting in frustration.
“Silly, the food on the plane will never be as fresh as this. Your health isn’t good right now, do you really want to eat airplane food?”
Mo Ziyang wasn’t angry. Instead, he gently flicked her forehead like tapping a little kitten.
“Ugh~”
It didn’t hurt, but it was just enough to snap Lin Muxi out of her anger.
Hearing his explanation, she finally realized she really had misunderstood him.
“S-sorry… I was being unreasonable…”
Seeing Mo Ziyang’s doting eyes, Lin Muxi lowered her head, feeling a little embarrassed.
She couldn’t understand it herself, why she kept getting upset over small things with him.
As for Mo Ziyang, he only thought, ‘if possible, let her get upset more often.’
Because every time his little wife got angry, it gave him the perfect chance to tease her openly. How could he not enjoy that?
But at the same time, he could also sense there was another reason behind it.
Then he remembered, it was normal. Girls easily got emotional during this time of the month. So he comforted her.
“It’s fine. Didn’t you hear that girls can be moody during their period? It’ll pass soon.”
“Mm…”
Feeling his gentle hand on her, Lin Muxi finally relaxed, her worried look fading away.
After drinking some water, she leaned against Mo Ziyang’s shoulder, not caring that they were in a public place.
“Let’s go after this… I don’t want to stay here anymore.”
Hearing this, Mo Ziyang glanced at Lin Muxi, who had already eaten enough, and nodded. He waved for the waiter to bring the bill.
After leaving the restaurant, Mo Ziyang took Lin Muxi back to the hotel suite. They quickly packed their things and checked out.
But just when Lin Muxi thought her boyfriend was going to call a taxi to the airport, a familiar SUV appeared at the hotel entrance, as if it had been waiting there for someone.
Huh~?
Lin Muxi blinked in confusion. She felt like she had seen this car before, but couldn’t remember exactly where.
Then a thought suddenly popped into her head. Could this car be here to pick us up?
That idea grew stronger as the car got closer. And when she and her boyfriend stepped out the hotel door and a strange middle-aged man got out of the car, Lin Muxi finally remembered.
Isn’t this the same strange uncle who drove them to the beach that day? Why was he here?
Lin Muxi first thought it was just a coincidence. After all, that uncle was the owner of the beach villa. Since they had already moved out, of course, other people might rent it, so it was normal for him to come to the hotel to pick someone up.
But… when that uncle directly took the luggage and backpack from Mo Ziyang’s hands, Lin Muxi finally showed a confused expression.
“Eh?” Lin Muxi looked at her boyfriend with doubt, wondering if there was some mistake here.
But she only saw her good bro gently pat her little head before pulling open the car door for her.
“Come on, get in the car. We’re going to the airport.”
“No, wait, isn’t that uncle the one who drove us to the beach that day?”
Hearing this, Mo Ziyang understood what this silly girl was worried about. So it was this.
But really, it was his fault for not telling Lin Muxi the uncle’s true identity that day, otherwise it wouldn’t be so awkward now.
“Cough, cough.” As Mo Ziyang cleared his throat, the uncle, who had just finished putting their luggage in the car, walked over. He stood there looking puzzled, not really sure why Mo Ziyang had asked him to come.
“Let me introduce you.”
“This… young master, I don’t think it’s proper…”
Being suddenly asked to speak in front of the current young lady of the Mo family, the uncle looked nervous. He was afraid that if he said something wrong, he might lose his job.
But before they could continue, Lin Muxi’s round eyes widened as she asked in surprise:
“You two know each other?”
“Just a small worker,” the uncle quickly explained, scratching his head. He didn’t dare claim any closer relationship with the Mo family’s young lady.
So that was it. No wonder that day at the beach, she had felt like this uncle seemed to know her boyfriend.
Seeing her boyfriend nod as well, Lin Muxi didn’t think too much about it anymore and got in the car. The SUV then started moving toward the airport.
Inside the car, there wasn’t much to do. Besides looking at the scenery outside the window, there was nothing else. Lin Muxi, who was already not feeling well, began to feel carsick when she looked at her phone.
In the end, after quickly snapping a few photos and posting them on her Penguin Moments, she leaned against her boyfriend in the backseat and slowly fell asleep.
When she opened her eyes again, the car was already close to the airport terminal.
Sensing movement beside him, Mo Ziyang turned his head and saw his little wife had woken up. She rubbed her sleepy eyes with her pale hand, which stretched out from under the coat covering her.
“Awake?”
“Mm… yes, I’m awake.”
Her voice was soft and sweet, as if they were the only two people in the car. She even rubbed her head against Mo Ziyang’s shoulder without thinking.
“Hm… this coat is…?”
When she was fully awake, Lin Muxi noticed the coat covering her was her boyfriend’s.
“The car’s air conditioner was cold. You’re in a special time right now, what if you caught a chill?”
“Oh… but we’re almost there anyway.”
Lin Muxi moved the coat aside, revealing her small figure under the simple-colored dress. She looked especially lovely, so much that even Mo Ziyang found it hard to resist.
If they weren’t outside, and if she weren’t still unwell, Mo Ziyang would have definitely wanted to “cherish” his little wife properly.
When the car stopped at the terminal, Mo Ziyang got out, took the luggage, and held Lin Muxi’s hand as they went to check in the bags.
It was noon, and since this city was also a famous tourist place, the airport was very crowded. Looking around, it was just a sea of heads.
This scene reminded Lin Muxi of the time she met a creepy pervert at a comic convention. She couldn’t help but hold her good bro’s hand tightly and lean closer to him.
Since she was wearing such a cute dress, in a crowded place it was easy to run into wandering hands. Understanding this, Mo Ziyang pulled her closer to his side.
With money and connections, things went smoothly. They quickly finished the luggage check, got their boarding passes, and passed security, entering the quiet VIP lounge.
But before Lin Muxi could even sit properly, the staff came to tell them that, as VIP and first-class passengers, they could board the plane early.
And so, their seaside holiday finally came to an end.
But the end of the trip didn’t mean Lin Muxi’s earlier promises no longer counted.
Holding her small hand as they boarded the plane, Mo Ziyang was already looking forward to the days back in the capital when Lin Muxi would wear all kinds of cute little dresses to “serve” him.
