Chapter 435: The Way to Make A Woman Stop Is By Kissing Her
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
This was the first time in Mu Teng’s life that he was wearing a suit. He looked quite good in it, but he didn’t even know where to place his hands.
After putting on the cloak-style gown specially designed by Mu Jingzhe to cover her flabby stomach, Li Zhaodi looked really nice too.
Mu Teng and Li Zhaodi had been husband and wife for half their lives. When they saw each other, they suddenly felt a little shy. Their eyes were filled with surprise, as if they were recalling their younger days.
Based on their habits in the past, Mu Teng and Li Zhaodi hated that they couldn’t wear such beautiful clothes to show off. However, this time, because they had to keep them for the wedding, they couldn’t show them off. This stifled them, and they swore to make everyone look at them in a different light at the wedding.
Amidst all this bustle, the weather became colder and colder. Before long, the five kids were on their winter break.
The holidays had become the busiest time of the year for the children. Shao Xi’s previous work, ‘Charging for Love’, had finally started filming. It had yet to yield any results, but after the relevant report, those who knew about it were all waiting for it.
His new book also started selling at the same time. The sales were excellent. As he grew older, Shao Xi’s work became more and more mature.
The publishing house contacted Shao Xi and said that they could hold a signing event in response to the readers’ request. Many people liked him, and many parents would bring their children to see him and let them learn from him, as he was a good role model.
After some thought, Shao Xi agreed. In the end, the signing event was also a meeting between readers. It was decided that it would be held in Ocean City. Mu Jingzhe and the others happened to be in Ocean City too, so they came with Shao Xi.
On the day of the reader meeting, there were surprisingly many people there. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that there was a sea of people. They shouted slogans and expressed their fondness for Shao Xi.
Perhaps because he had heard too many good things and everything had gone too smoothly so far, Shao Xi became a little proud after that.
In the past, he had been too bitter and had lacked confidence, but now, he was well-liked and everything was going very smoothly. He was outstanding and really talented and learned everything quickly. Hence, everything started to get to his head a little.
Back then, he had been very serious when he had read letters from readers. If he encountered someone who wrote an essay or any other work of literature and asked him to read it, he would seriously read it. But now that he received so many letters, he was too lazy to read them all. And when he did read a few when he was bored, he wasn’t so serious about it.
“What is this? His writing is too childish. He even said that he’s older than me. How can someone write something like that at such an old age?”
“What is this one? It’s written so badly, yet he still showed it to me.”
He casually took a look and put it away, not taking it seriously.
Mu Jingzhe frowned when she saw how Shao Xi had changed. She silently put away the letters, then told the publishers that there was no need to send Shao Xi any more letters, for there were simply too many. They could just give them to her.
Shao Xi’s current world was filled with success and praise. It was time for him to hear less about such things.
In the past, Shao Xi had needed these letters because he hadn’t been confident enough. Now, he was too confident.
“This kid is getting complacent. I felt that he was a little proud previously. After this signing event, his arrogance became even more obvious.” Mu Jingzhe privately discussed it with Ji Buwang.
“Then what do you plan to do?” Ji Buwang asked.
“I’m going to play the role of a family member, of course.” Mu Jingzhe snorted. “We have to show him how powerful the outside world is to wake him up.”
This was the role of a family. When the outside world was filled with malice, family members had to give one confidence and praise them.
However, when there was too much praise in the outside world, one’s family had to keep them awake and give advice that was hard to swallow, thus letting them know the severity of the matter.
When Ji Buwang heard Mu Jingzhe’s plan, he couldn’t help but give her a thumbs-up. “Sure, sure. Do you need my help? We can play good cop and bad cop together.”
“No, no, we want a full-blown strike. This child needs to hear some harsh words.”
“Alright, then tell me when you need me.” Ji Buwang hugged Mu Jingzhe from behind and whispered into her ear.
When he lowered his voice, Ji Buwang’s voice was magnetic, making Mu Jingzhe get goosebumps and causing her heart to beat faster.
Here it comes again. Ji Buwang had been like this recently.
This low-pitched voice was unbearable to begin with, and now that he even hugged her from behind, it was even more bewitching.
Mu Jingzhe felt that her mind wasn’t clear anymore. Ji Buwang’s heart was actually also beating furiously. Since he had realized that Mu Jingzhe couldn’t resist his voice, he had been using this move a lot.
Looking at Mu Jingzhe’s dizzy, blushing face made him feel blissful. He really liked to hug Jingzhe. Jingzhe was strong, but her frame was small and her body was soft. With her in his arms, he felt like he owned the entire world. It was such an awesome feeling.
Mu Jingzhe also found it nice. Being hugged from the back was especially surprising at times. In fact, so surprising that she couldn’t quite take it sometimes. “We’re talking about a serious matter. Why are you…”
“I know. I saw that you’re so tired and wanted to hug you.” Ji Buwang held Mu Jingzhe’s hand and interlocked their fingers. “Haven’t I let you get used to it? Didn’t you say you wanted to practice so you did not lose control of your strength?
“We’re getting married soon. Don’t you want to get used to it early?”
Mu Jingzhe nodded vigorously. Of course she wanted to. Only by getting used to it could she properly spend her wedding night with him. Otherwise, it might lead to tragedy.
As he saw the way Mu Jingzhe was nodding vigorously, Ji Buwang’s Adam’s apple rolled. He let go of her first so that she wouldn’t notice this abnormality.
Every time Ji Buwang couldn’t help but try to seduce Mu Jingzhe, he would be the first to be defeated.
Just as Mu Jingzhe was feeling blissful, she suddenly felt Ji Buwang retreat again. In her heart, she thought, ‘Why do you always let go so quickly?’
“Don’t move. Where are you going?”
Mu Jingzhe pulled Ji Buwang and hugged him from behind. She leaned against his broad back and closed her eyes. “I haven’t hugged you enough.”
Ji Buwang’s entire body tensed up. He closed his eyes and slowly relaxed. “Jingzhe, you’re really…”
His tone was filled with a sigh, but it was also filled with affection. Before falling in love with Jingzhe, he hadn’t known that love was so wonderful. It was completely different from how it felt when he was with friends.
Jingzhe was just like that—her actions matched her thoughts. If you gave her 100% love, she would definitely return 100% love to you. She would not hide it, just like she did not now.
After hugging him for a moment, Mu Jingzhe couldn’t help feeling mischievous and tickled Ji Buwang. Ji Buwang couldn’t help but laugh at her amusing behavior.
“Jingzhe, you…”
“Hahaha…” Mu Jingzhe laughed out loud. Ji Buwang quickly held her hand, but how could he compare to Mu Jingzhe in terms of strength?
Initially, he was the one holding Mu Jingzhe’s hand. Later on, it was Mu Jingzhe holding his hand, wanting to continue messing around.
Ji Buwang looked at the wicked smile on Mu Jingzhe’s face and really didn’t want to laugh so hard that he couldn’t breathe. With a flash of inspiration, he suddenly lowered his head and kissed Mu Jingzhe.
Stunned, Mu Jingzhe loosened her grip. Ji Buwang retracted his hand and completely took the initiative.
Indeed, this was the best way to stop her.
