TSCTMGABFTA Chapter 22

Chapter 22: The Final Choice

Mu Chuang: “……!”

His little mouth was quite sharp; he could cry so fiercely and it wouldn’t affect his ability to retort.

“Alright, alright, you haven’t broken the law, it was my fault, you can sleep however you want from now on, I won’t say anything, okay?”

“Besides, I didn’t think you were in the way. I haven’t gotten to that stage with that woman, so don’t let your imagination run wild all day.”

This last sentence of his finally calmed Lin Xi down; everything he had said before was useless. As soon as he said this, Lin Xi stopped crying.

But he still didn’t quite believe it, sniffing and sniveling, probing indirectly, “Then why did you go for so long?”

Under normal circumstances, shouldn’t he be sleeping if he’s not crying? Why does he still have to ask this?

Fortunately, Mu Chuang was confused by him at this moment and didn’t think of this at all. Instead, he honestly replied, “It’s all Liang Ting’s fault. After changing her clothes, she wanted to buy underwear, tried it on for a long time without success. In the end, she saw that I was impatient, so she reluctantly bought one. Otherwise, we might not be back yet.”

“So that’s how it is.” Lin Xi thought to himself, “Thank goodness…”

He didn’t continue to think about it, because for now, there was no need.

“Oh.” He responded softly, and then became obedient in a second, “Then I’m going to sleep.”

He followed Mu Chuang’s gesture of pulling him close, preparing to lie down and sleep.

Mu Chuang also lay down, looking at his tamed and obedient appearance, and found it both amusing and infuriating.

He tucked him in, adjusted his sleeping position, and then started joking.

“I used this hand to hit you, do you want to bite it back?” He raised his right hand and extended it to Lin Xi’s mouth, “One bite and it’s fair.”

“No.” Lin Xi looked at his large, strong hand with distinct knuckles, feeling like it would break his teeth.

Mu Chuang chuckled, pulling him closer into his arms, “Alright then, let’s sleep.”

“Mm.” Lin Xi nestled in his arms, his voice muffled. After a while, he suddenly asked, “Are you really taking me out to play tomorrow?”

“Of course.” Mu Chuang’s voice sounded above his head, half-joking and half-serious, “Or else someone will start crying again.”

“Hmph!” Lin Xi made a dissatisfied sound, scratching him like a little cat, somewhat unconvinced as he retorted, “It’s not like I’m unreasonable, if you weren’t so fierce, why would I cry?”

Mu Chuang was scratched, feeling a little pain, and retorted with the same logic, “I’m not an unreasonable person either. If someone didn’t make mistakes and was always this good, why would I be fierce?”

Lin Xi was stunned for a second, feeling speechless, and then said stubbornly, “I’m not talking to you anymore, you only know how to bully me.”

“Hehe~” Mu Chuang laughed, teasing him with his usual saying, “Younger brothers are for bullying and for playing with, otherwise it’s too boring to just watch.”

Lin Xi didn’t know what he was thinking, and his face quietly turned red because of his “for playing with” comment.

“I’m too lazy to bother with you.” He was both speechless and a little shy, “I’m going to sleep, don’t make any noise.”

After saying that, he kept burrowing into Mu Chuang’s arms, wishing he could merge with him.

“Okay.” Mu Chuang replied, rubbing his messy “bird’s nest” hair, feeling relaxed and also proud of successfully “defeating” the other person with his clever words.

The next morning, the two slept until the sun was high in the sky before getting up.

If it were usual, as soon as Sunday arrived, the three women would knock on the door early in the morning, each dressed fashionably, clamoring for Mu Chuang to accompany them shopping.

However, today, it was exceptionally quiet outside.

Liu Jingjing naturally wouldn’t come again.

Liang Ting was also somewhat disheartened by her failed seduction attempt last night. She got up early this morning, dressed up, and went out early, not knowing who she had secretly arranged to meet.

Fu Xiaoling was always quiet. Unless the other two women took the lead, she wouldn’t follow, unless Mu Chuang invited her.

They rarely slept in, and by the time they slowly got up, they skipped breakfast.

“We’ll only go in the afternoon.” Mu Chuang was preparing the dishes there. Lin Xi had been cooking for the past few days, and he wanted to cook himself this time while he had time.

It has to be said that although he looks like a hoodlum, he unexpectedly knows how to do housework, and is also good at cooking.

Lin Xi finished washing up and ate whatever was ready, feeling that Mu Chuang’s cooking skills were better than his own.

He ate a lot, which caused him to be led down the stairs by Mu Chuang. It wasn’t that he was being pretentious, but that Mu Chuang was worried that he would fall, but it was actually too much of a joke.

When they arrived at the luxury car, Mu Chuang told him to get in first, saying that he would be right back.

A moment later, he came back with Fu Xiaoling.

The woman seemed to have a premonition, and was dressed exceptionally beautifully today. Without the contrast of the other two women, her advantages stood out, and she was worthy of him when walking with Mu Chuang.

Lin Xi originally thought that Mu Chuang would take him alone, so he sat directly in the passenger seat when he got in the car, but unexpectedly…

He hesitated, preparing to change seats, but the two of them had already arrived at the car door.

“Xiaoling, sit in the back, Xi Xi is still young, let’s give him the seat.” Mu Chuang glanced at Lin Xi sitting in the passenger seat, turned his head and said to Fu Xiaoling, “Today it’s just the three of us, no one else.”

Fu Xiaoling was a little concerned at first, but when she heard Mu Chuang say this, she immediately beamed with joy, “It’s okay, little brother should be spoiled, we older brothers and sisters can’t mistreat him.”

The two sang in harmony, giving the impression that a real couple was taking their younger brother out to play.

Lin Xi suddenly felt that he was a bit superfluous.

“Chuang Ge…” He thought of the scene where Liang Ting sent him away last night, wondering if his presence today would affect these two?

After all, Mu Chuang didn’t ask anyone else, but went to ask Fu Xiaoling alone. Coupled with their conversation just now, Lin Xi believed that Mu Chuang had chosen this woman.

Therefore, should he be more sensible…

“What’s wrong?” Mu Chuang responded before Lin Xi could say the rest of the sentence, “You were fine just now, what are you thinking about now? You’re so young, why do you have so many thoughts?”

Lin Xi hadn’t finished thinking about the rest, when he was suddenly confused by this sentence, feeling that his words were a bit strange, and he was horrified when he thought about it carefully.

“It’s nothing,” he quickly cut off his thoughts, feeling that if he hesitated for another second, he would be seen through by Mu Chuang, “I wanted to ask, is there another sister… isn’t she going?”

His little brain turned 180 degrees, turning the words he hadn’t said just now into this sentence, and then he saw the confusion on Mu Chuang’s face immediately disappear.

But what replaced it was indifference, directed at Liang Ting.
