"I'm scared, so don't leave me, I'll go crazy."
Yun Shu Nian: "..."
"Mu Qi, I can't live without you. You are the center of my life. How could I leave my own center?"
Yun Shu Nian's hands caressed Mu Qi's back. She couldn't stand seeing Mu Qi sad at all right now.
Mu Qi's expression stirred, his lips moved slightly. But remembering the photo and recording under the table, he said nothing and released Yun Shu Nian.
"I'll get the medicine."
Having said what he wanted to say, Yun Shu Nian felt a lot more at ease watching Mu Qi's retreating back.
Although she didn't know why Mu Qi brought up Zuo Nan again, Yun Shu Nian just wanted Mu Qi to feel a little more at peace.
...
After breakfast, Yun Shu Nian didn't expect Mu Qi to actually stay in the room with her.
She had originally just wanted to act spoiled and get him to let her go sooner.
And also... she wanted Mu Qi to spend the night with her.
But now...
Did Mu Qi really have no intention of letting her go?
Yun Shu Nian looked at Mu Qi, who was working in front of the screen, and let out a soft sigh.
If that was the case, then she would indulge herself to her heart's content!
At times, Yun Shu Nian was also a hedonist.
Yun Shu Nian got out of bed. She hesitated slightly as she looked at Mu Qi working diligently, but then she strode forward.
After all, Mu Qi had locked her up!
With that thought, Yun Shu Nian sat directly on Mu Qi's lap and pecked at his lips.
However, she didn't expect Mu Qi to turn his head and dodge.
Yun Shu Nian's eyes widened.
Mu Qi: "I'm..."
"Mu Qi, can't you use a more affectionate term for me!" Yun Shu Nian was unhappy. Even Mu Qi's breathing felt wrong.
Perhaps it was because Mu Qi's deep affection for Yun Shu Nian had long been fully exposed to her.
Therefore, Yun Shu Nian had never considered demanding how Mu Qi should address her. Now, Yun Shu Nian was unhappy that Mu Qi had dodged her and was picking a fight.
"Hmm?" Yun Shu Nian raised her hand and pinched Mu Qi's chin.
Mu Qi's Adam's apple bobbed, and he looked at her affectionately with the force of Yun Shu Nian's hand. "What do you want me to call you?"
Yun Shu Nian frowned, conflicted. "Hmm..."
When Mu Qi was drunk, he would call her "baby."
But for the sober Mu Qi now, was it a bit difficult to say?
Yun Shu Nian glanced at Mu Qi's cool, detached face, feeling a sense of hesitation.
Yun Shu Nian tested Mu Qi's bottom line. "Can I say anything?"
"Anything," Mu Qi replied without hesitation.
He had considered expressing his love in this way.
But he had always worried that Yun Shu Nian would find it disgusting and thus resent him even more.
Yun Shu Nian's voice was very low, lacking confidence. "Then you have to call me 'baby.'" Yun Shu Nian's face felt hot after saying that.
Hearing these two words, Mu Qi hesitated for a long time before responding, his gaze on Yun Shu Nian filled with scrutiny.
Seeing this, the heat on Yun Shu Nian's face subsided. "If you don't want to, forget it."
Yun Shu Nian struggled to get up from Mu Qi's lap, but he wrapped his arms around her waist.
"Baby." Mu Qi's deep voice sounded in Yun Shu Nian's ear.
Yun Shu Nian's body instantly tingled.
Unlike the drunk Mu Qi, his tone was not as soft.
But now Mu Qi's voice was deeper and more magnetic, so pleasant it could make one pregnant.
Mu Qi looked at Yun Shu Nian, who was stunned in his arms, his heart growing cold. Did she really still hate him?
Mu Qi silently felt disheartened, but he didn't expect that in the next second, when Mu Qi wasn't paying attention, Yun Shu Nian would instantly peck at his lips.
"Good boy." Yun Shu Nian was happy that she had kissed him.
Then, Yun Shu Nian asked curiously, "Oh right, what were you going to say just now?"
"Baby, I'm on a video conference." Mu Qi was also obedient this time, adopting the affectionate term Yun Shu Nian requested.
However, the content of it made Yun Shu Nian instantly fly into a rage.
"Mrs. Mu, hello."
"Mrs. Mu, hello."
...
This video conference truly opened everyone's eyes. They never imagined that the tyrannical figure who dominated the business world would actually be a henpecked husband!
Look at his submissive demeanor...
Tsk.
Before Yun Shu Nian could react, various middle-aged bosses from the other end of the screen spoke in different voices.
Mu Qi looked at Yun Shu Nian's stunned expression and raised his hand to caress her head.
Unexpectedly, Yun Shu Nian instantly broke free from his embrace and covered herself with the quilt.
"Meeting adjourned." Mu Qi clenched his empty fist, ended the meeting, and turned to walk to the bed.
Everyone: Describing him as a degenerate ruler seems more fitting...
"Baby, come out. I've finished the meeting." Mu Qi gently tugged at the quilt.
"I can't face anyone! It's all your fault. Why didn't you say so earlier!"
Yun Shu Nian buried her face in the pillow, her face burning as if it were on fire.
Mu Qi: "..."
Mu Qi: "Baby, I was wrong."
Mu Qi's deep voice reached Yun Shu Nian's ears, startling her into lifting the quilt.
"Mu Qi, you... What did you say?" Yun Shu Nian looked at Mu Qi seriously, thinking she had misheard.
How could Mu Qi apologize to her so easily? And he was always so cold, while she was the one being unreasonable.
"Baby, I was wrong." Mu Qi repeated patiently.
Although Mu Qi used the most intimate term, he didn't reveal any emotion.
Mu Qi was afraid, afraid that Yun Shu Nian would suddenly hate him.
Afraid that Yun Shu Nian would suddenly say:
"Mu Qi, how disgusting you are. How dare you speak to me like this."
The one who loves deeply always lowers themselves involuntarily.
Yet they wear a mask of coldness and pray devoutly in corners where their beloved cannot see, hoping to gain their favor.
It was like a gamble with no hope of winning, but Mu Qi was unwilling to withdraw, even at the cost of his life.
Fortunately, Yun Shu Nian would not let Mu Qi lose now, nor would she let him risk his life.
"Why did you admit fault so easily? It was clearly me being unreasonable, Mu Qi." Yun Shu Nian frowned, cupped Mu Qi's face, her heart filled with guilt.
"Mu Qi, are you feeling wronged?" Yun Shu Nian thought about how she had made him change his address and said he was wrong. Sudan Novels.
She felt as if she had turned from a domineering CEO into a bully!
Mu Qi had not expected Yun Shu Nian to think that way, to care so much about his feelings. "I'm not..."
Before Mu Qi could finish, Yun Shu Nian suddenly hugged him, patted his back, and kissed his cheek.
"Baby, it's all my fault. Baby, don't be wronged anymore."
The more Yun Shu Nian thought about it, the more guilty she felt, and she quickly comforted Mu Qi.
The words that were at the tip of Mu Qi's tongue suddenly felt like they no longer needed to be spoken.
It was fine for her to think he was wronged...
Mu Qi leaned quietly on Yun Shu Nian's shoulder, closed his eyes, and felt Yun Shu Nian's warmth.
Until Aunt Ning knocked on the door and brought in lunch.
Yun Shu Nian suddenly remembered that she hadn't used the things she had asked Aunt Ning to prepare yesterday.
