Imperial Commander: His Pretty Wife Is Spoiled Rotten (Book 1)

446-450

Yun Xi glanced at the sulky man across from her, walked forward, rubbed his face with her hands, and then deliberately leaned in and sniffed him.

"Young Marshal Mu, can I smell that you're still fuming? Don't be so nervous. You can't prevent bad things from happening to me, so I need to have the ability to protect myself."

Mu Feichi turned his head and his dark eyes looked sullen. "Do you think I can't protect you?"

The best way to prevent her from getting hurt was to eliminate the source of the danger.

He didn't mind disrupting his plans as long as it benefited her, and he was willing to resort to any means.

For him, gains and losses in the world didn't matter, but he simply couldn't live with the risk of losing her.

Yun Xi shook her head seriously. "No."

Of course, she knew what he was worried about, and naturally she also knew what his mood was at the moment.

"That man is a big fish. You need to use him to catch Crocodile. Some matters are urgent. You can't change all your plans because of me. Even if it weren't about Li Sinuo, I could still encounter this sort of situation in the future. If I don't have the ability to protect myself, I could run into the same kind of trouble. You have to believe that I can protect myself."

Hoping that she would grow up, but also hoping to shelter her under his own wings, Mu Feichi looked at her helplessly.

These sort of contradictory and conflicting feelings were finally conquered by the clear eyes that were standing looking at him.

Since he loved her, he would do anything in his power to satisfy her.

Only by being able to stand shoulder to shoulder with him would they be able to go far together.

"Young Marshal Mu, it's better to teach people how to fish rather than give them the fish directly."

Yun Xi smiled and looked at the man standing in front of her. Her eyes were dazzling, and her stubborn yet alluring face appeared fearless and determined. She embodied solitary courage.

This was the woman he, Mu Feichi, admired. She was as brave and stubborn as an invincible queen.

"Okay, whatever you say." Mu Feichi sighed, then from the living room, he glanced at the snow that was falling outside.

There was slight anticipation in his dark eyes as he asked softly, "It will be Christmas Eve and Christmas in a few days. How do you want to celebrate?"

"Why celebrate a foreign holiday?"

Yun Xi glanced at him, then turned around and sat down beside Great White.

Sensing someone nearby, Great White raised his head as he awoke from sleep. He saw that it was Yun Xi who had sat down beside him. Great White moved his paw and laid it down directly on Yun Xi's thigh.

Great White changed its position and then continued sleeping.

Mu Feichi glanced at Great White, who was taking advantage of her, and his face immediately darkened. He raised his feet under Great White's two paws and moved Great White from her legs to the floor.

Great White raised his head and glanced at his owner. He then looked where Mu Feichi had moved his paws, and he seemed heartbroken.

...

Christmas was approaching, so red-and-green holiday lights were everywhere on the streets of Jingdu and various versions of Christmas songs echoed in people's ears.
