“Um… about the marriage…” Mu Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, thinking about her next words. However, she did not want to be a wet blanket to Mama Yin’s obvious happiness.
Yin Shaojie was sitting opposite her and noticed her expression.
His gaze fell a little and he said to his mother, “Mom, stop scaring Xiaoxiao. It’s still too early to talk about the wedding now. Xiaoxiao is still young and it’s not an urgent matter.”
“What has that got to do with anything? Xiaoxiao will ultimately belong to the Yin family sooner or later. Are you not anxious anymore now that you’ve gotten Xiaoxiao?” Mama Yin looked at him and scolded.
Yin Shaojie did not know whether to laugh or cry. He hadn’t gotten her yet!
Mu Xiaoxiao stood up from the sofa and yawned. She said to Mama Yin, “Mama Yin, I’m really tired. I want to go back and sleep now.”
“Aiyoh, speaking about this with you has made me forget about discussing your birthday with you.” She had called Xiaoxiao over because she wanted to discuss the birthday banquet with her.
Mu Xiaoxiao smiled and said, “So long as it’s planned by Mama Yin, I have no objections at all.”
“Alright, Xiaoxiao is really sleepy. I’ll bring her to bed.” Yin Shaojie walked over to Mu Xiaoxiao and held her by her shoulders. Bidding his mother goodnight, he brought Xiaoxiao upstairs.
Mu Xiaoxiao’s gaze was lowered as though she were thinking about something.
Upon entering the room, Yin Shaojie closed the door. Circling her arms around her, he held her in his embrace. Lowering his head, he asked her, “What’s the matter? You didn’t seem very happy after Mom mentioned the wedding.”
Mu Xiaoxiao lifted her head slowly. She met his eyes, but seemed to have second thoughts about speaking.
Yin Shaojie seemed to look at her severely. “Xiaoxiao, tell me, do you… not want to marry me?”
“Of course I do.” Mu Xiaoxiao said. Frowning slightly, she explained, “I just feel… it’s too early to get married. Yin Shaojie, I don’t want to get married so fast. Is that okay?”
Yin Shaojie’s gaze fell. He nodded and said, “Of course. I won’t force you to do something you don’t like to do.”
Mu Xiaoxiao heard him and thought there was meaning behind his words. Yin Shaojie seemed very considerate, but the downcast look in his eyes did not dissipate. Mu Xiaoxiao relaxed.
“Alright, aren’t you tired? Hurry up and go sleep.” Yin Shaojie had seen the fatigue in her eyes when her hair was being dried earlier.
“Okay,” Mu Xiaoxiao replied. Reaching out her little hands, she stretched them behind his back and circled his lean waist. She pressed her face against his chest peacefully, listening to his steady heartbeat.
Yin Shaojie could only bring her over to the bed. He settled her on the bed and covered her with the blanket.
Mu Xiaoxiao was really tired and fell asleep soon after.
The bedroom was dark and only lit by the moonlight shining from the balcony.
After an indeterminate amount of time.
Mu Xiaoxiao was in deep sleep on the bed as a handsome figure stood by the balcony. A light lit up in his hands. It was the light of a phone screen.
In the dark, Yin Shaojie’s features were sharply illuminated by the screen.
He pressed his finger on the home button, instantly unlocking the phone.
He had secretly registered his own fingerprint on Xiaoxiao’s phone while she hadn’t been looking.
The expression on Yin Shaojie’s face was complicated as his gaze fell onto the unlocked screen.
