Chapter 57 - Who's Your Wife?
It turned out that he was speaking so casually to someone else.
Shang Xiaojie's heart clenched again, causing him to pale as he covered his chest, feeling the pain.
His heart was in agony, throbbing and throbbing.
Shang Xiaojie couldn't fathom why, but witnessing Mu Sifa harmoniously interacting with others caused an inexplicable ache in his heart.
“What's the matter, Xiaojie? Feeling uncomfortable?”
Mu Xiaoxiao glanced over her shoulder and noticed that Shang Xiaojie hadn't followed. Seeing him pause and clutch his heart, she thought something might be wrong with him.
“No, it's nothing. My heart just feels a little uneasy. It's okay.”
He replied with a smile that seemed very endearing but tinged with a touch of pallor.
“Really? Your expression suggests otherwise!”
“Absolutely not.”
He intended to assure them that he was fine, but before he could finish, Mu Xiaoxiao suddenly called out to the front desk, “Third Brother, Xiaojie isn't feeling well, come and have a look.”
Mu Sifa, who was talking to his assistant Elina at the reception, paused upon hearing Mu Xiaoxiao's voice and even mentioning Shang Xiaojie's name.
He quickly turned around, and as soon as he spotted Shang Xiaojie, a wider smile spread across his face.
Just when I was planning to visit him after the surgery, he unexpectedly came to see me himself.
Mu Sifa's beaming smile puzzled Elina. While he was usually courteous and professional when talking to her, this was an extraordinary display of happiness.
Her gaze fell on Shang Xiaojie, who stood some distance away, causing her to tense up once more.
Who is he? To make Mu Sifa smile so happily just by seeing him?
I've been by Mu Sifa's side for at least five years, but I've never seen him smile like this before.
Jealousy distorted Elina's pretty face, causing it to scrunch up unpleasantly.
However, her expression only lasted for a split-second. In the next moment, she put on a smiling face, mastering the art of swiftly changing her emotions.
“No, no, I'm perfectly fine,” Shang Xiaojie hurriedly waved his hand, afraid of interrupting Mu Sifa's work. Under Mu Sifa's interesting gaze, Shang Xiaojie's entire body turned red, and his heart raced like crazy.
Mu Sifa's expression was quite captivating, making people feel restless.
Mu Sifa's smile widened, and he playfully beckoned Shang Xiaojie over, “Come here.”
Though it sounded like an order, it had such a sweet tone that it made Shang Xiaojie blush again.
Biting his lips and glancing at the twinkling lights, Shang Xiaojie nervously tugged at the corner of his clothes, then cautiously walked towards Mu Sifa, holding his breath the entire time.
When he stood before Mu Sifa, he tightly lowered his head, too shy and embarrassed to meet his gaze. In a soft and adorable voice, he asked, “What are you up to?”
Although his voice was soft, it was soothing to hear and made people want to pinch him, adding a cute quality to his words.
“Oh, nothing. I don't see anything wrong with calling my wife over, right?” Mu Sifa loved it when Shang Xiaojie showed his helplessness and blushing face before him.
“Who's your wife? Stop saying that,” Shang Xiaojie retorted, but it didn't seem like she was angry like before. Instead, she looked shyly at the ground beneath her feet.
Mu Sifa didn't get angry; instead, he lifted his chin and asked with a smile, “If I still call you that, what else would you do to me? Hit me? Or perhaps scold me with your blushing face?” He teased playfully.
“Who, who's blushing?” He immediately knocked off Mu Sifa's hand. Though he didn't want to blush, he seemed so embarrassed that he could practically drip water. It was a total crime.
