Beware the Appearing Cute Wife!

Yege was dumbfounded.

Explain it to Chu Xici?

Come on, she didn’t even listen carefully just now, how could she explain it to him now?

Yege’s mind was a mess.

Helplessly, she could only lower her gaze and obediently admit her mistake.

"I was wrong! I... didn’t understand the problem just now!"

Chu Xici looked at her, his gaze clear like water.

"Didn’t understand? Or didn’t listen carefully at all?"

Yege: "..."

She felt a bit embarrassed.

This guy clearly knew she wasn’t listening carefully, but he insisted on using this method to make her admit it herself, truly... so mischievous!

"Alright, alright, I was daydreaming and didn’t listen carefully, okay!"

Yege pouted in dissatisfaction, why was he acting strangely tonight!

"Then, explain it to me again!"

This time, Chu Xici laughed.

"Couldn’t you have admitted it sooner? You even lied? You’re really asking for it!"

As he spoke, Chu Xici tapped a pen lightly on Yege’s head.

"Ouch!"

Yege rubbed her head, feeling a bit wronged, and glared up at Chu Xici.

"Why are you bullying me?"

Chu Xici: "..."

He hadn’t even used any force just now, really?

Besides, how could he ever bring himself to really hit her?

Chu Xici sighed helplessly, "Drink the milk first, then I’ll explain! Otherwise, it’ll get cold!"

"Oh!" Yege replied, promptly picking up the milk and drinking it.

But, as she drank too quickly without paying much attention, a bit of milk stuck to the corner of her lips.

Chu Xici turned his head and saw it.

Yet Yege hadn’t noticed, seeing Chu Xici’s odd gaze on her made her puzzled.

"What’s wrong?"

Chu Xici shook his head, reaching out towards Yege’s cheek, his thumb brushing gently over the milk on her lips.

"You’re so grown up already, why are you still like a child? Even drinking milk ends up all over your face!"

His voice was gentle; it seemed like he was scolding her, but actually, it was filled with deep affection.

Yege was instantly stunned, her face suddenly heating up.

This...

Her eyes stared unblinkingly at Chu Xici, her heart already beating furiously.

Chu Xici’s movements were so gentle, and as he stared into her eyes like that, Yege felt helpless, only able to lower her gaze.

As for Chu Xici, looking at her delicate, rosy face like that suddenly reminded him of the night she got drunk.

That scene rushed back like a storm, making Chu Xici’s heart race erratically, his throat even tightening a bit.

Amid Yege’s flustered chaos, Chu Xici suddenly released his hand.

"Alright, it’s all clean now! Come, let me explain the problem to you again!"

Chu Xici’s voice sounded very calm, but he was the only one who knew how tumultuous his heart was at the moment.

He took a deep breath to calm himself down, then began explaining the problem again.

And Yege hurriedly collected her scattered thoughts and listened carefully.

Earlier, Chu Xici’s actions had really overwhelmed her, even making her explain once more! Tsk tsk, he really thought of that!

So this time, she must listen carefully!

Chu Xici’s voice was warm and deep, falling pleasantly in Yege’s ears.

He patiently explained, and this time, Yege finally understood!

Chu Xici smiled.

"Well, it’s getting late, time to go to sleep!"

Chu Xici got up to walk out.

Yege nodded in agreement, packed her things, and just as she turned to step forward, she stumbled over the leg of a chair beside her.

"Ah!"

Yege stumbled, her body suddenly lunging forward.
