Chapter 267 - Dirty Things
His aggressive nature was undeniable, true to the essence of who he was, Nong Mobai. Without this stubborn defiance, he wouldn't be himself.
“I'm curious about the private discussion Big Daddy is having with Little Father. I'd like to be included as well.”
With keen interest, Shang Mingming observed the scene, his curiosity piqued despite not understanding the interaction between the two.
“He hasn't uttered a word!”
With a pleasant laugh, Nong Mobai subtly nudged Mu Sizheng with his foot, signaling him to keep his distance.
“Surely you two aren't,” Mu Sifa remarked with a look of scorn, clearly alluding to a certain matter.
“Who could say for sure?”
Displaying an air of detachment, Mu Sizheng sipped his drink with a smile, showing a newfound sincerity by not invading Nong Mobai's personal space again. Despite this, Nong Mobai remained wary, mindful of Mu Sizheng's unexpected aggressive behavior previously.
By responding with “Who knows?”, isn't that an implicit admission of engaging in dubious activities?
Mu Sifa's mouth twitched in irritation, opting not to respond further.
What could possibly be the reason for their presence here? If urgency is an issue, they might as well find a room outside.
“Don't give me that look, as if driven by animalistic urges.”
The intent gaze in Mu Sifa's eyes didn't escape Nong Mobai's notice.
Initially, Shang Cijie was clueless about their quarrel, but upon hearing Nong Mobai mention “heat of passion,” he began to grasp what Mu Sifa might be implying.
Now understanding, Shang Cijie's cheeks reddened with embarrassment, and he averted his gaze, feigning ignorance while drinking his juice.
“Why are you blushing so much, Xiaojie?” Ignored by his son, Shang Cijie's frustration mounted.
“It's nothing, really, nothing.”
In his agitation, Shang Cijie nearly choked, quickly wiping his mouth and avoiding Mu Sifa and the others' gazes.
If it's truly nothing, why the conspicuous blush?
Skeptical, Shang Mingming accused Mu Sifa of indecency towards Shang Cijie, concerned and protective.
Questioning his own son's understanding of impropriety, Mu Sifa contemplates the irony of the suspicion.
Nonetheless, he acknowledged that Shang Mingming's intervention indirectly shifted the focus away from the earlier topic, inadvertently assisting him.
“Being your mother's partner, how could I behave inappropriately towards him?”
Shang Mingming, visibly annoyed, accused Mu Sifa of pursuing Shang Cijie, challenging his earlier denial.
Upon hearing this, Shang Cijie's embarrassment intensified, and he quickly silenced Shang Mingming, preventing further discussion.
“What's this, Xiaojie?” Shang Mingming struggled against being silenced.
Urging silence, Shang Cijie became flustered and incoherent, his embarrassment vividly shared with Shang Mingming, evident from his red-faced effort to keep him quiet.
“Ah, it seems they're enjoying a bit of romance!” Nong Mobai teased, aiming to increase Shang Cijie's embarrassment, while Ye Zichen observed Mu Sifa's irritation.
Mu Sifa, visibly bothered, could only appreciate Shang Cijie's charm privately.
He issued a veiled threat to disclose Nong Mobai's misadventures to his elder brother as a warning.
“Fine, you've won,” conceded Nong Mobai, eager to avoid further conflict with Mu Sizheng.
