Unlimited estates for rural beauty-Chapter 203 Collision of Two People in Beijing (8)

"Haven’t you two resolved your issues yet? If it’s not sorted, take it outside. I’m getting a headache just listening to you."

Feng Xuxu pinched her brow, her face etched with exhaustion.

Seeing her like this, the two of them immediately shut up. Xiaobai, perched on the beam, pouted and shook his whiskers before leaping down, landing right on his sister’s shoulder where he obediently curled up.

Feng Xuxu looked at Xiaobai, at a loss for words; the little guy was still holding a grudge over the last incident. Dugu Chen had really offended Xiaobai thoroughly this time.

"Are you done talking?" Feng Xuxu lifted her eyebrows as she asked the two sitting on either side of the room.

"There’s nothing left to say," Dugu Chen relaxed his grip, finding it hard to bear seeing his treasured one so worn out.

"It’s all been said." Unable to bear Dugu Chen’s look of deep affection, he simply turned his face away.

"Since you’ve finished speaking, then let me say a few words. Dugu Chen, Jueqing is my cousin, and he’s like a real brother to me. I don’t want you to hurt him," she said, looking seriously at Dugu Chen.

Under Feng Xuxu’s compelling gaze, Dugu Chen ultimately agreed.

Seeing Dugu Chen nod his head, Feng Xuxu turned to Jueqing and said, "Cousin, Dugu Chen is the one I’ve chosen, and no matter how difficult the path ahead may be, I will walk it just the same. I hope my cousin can understand."

Jueqing let out a bitter laugh, realizing once again that it was futile no matter how hard he tried whenever Feng Xuxu referred to him as a brother in her heart.

"Don’t worry, cousin, I understand." He walked away with a wry smile and shake of his head.

The room was left with only Feng Xuxu and Dugu Chen. Dugu Chen picked up Feng Xuxu, burying his head deeply into her hair, breathing in her scent. Only then did his long-missing heart finally settle down.

Feng Xuxu struggled out of Dugu Chen’s embrace, looking at him with dissatisfaction, and poutingly asked, "Should I call you the Enchanter or Xiao Chen?"

"Little Xuxu, I couldn’t reveal my situation back then for fear of bringing danger upon you. I never imagined they would still nearly hurt you in their blundering." Dugu Chen thought back with trepidation. If anything were to happen to his darling, he didn’t know what he might do.

Feng Xuxu looked at Dugu Chen in surprise, "How did you find out? I told them not to tell you."

"Silly girl, even if they hadn’t told me, I’d know about many things!" Dugu Chen said, taking his token from Feng Xuxu’s neck: "If something happens in the future, you can take this to the Ruzhai Teahouse on East Street in the Capital City and find the Shopkeeper there. He will know what to do. If you’re elsewhere, you can find shops with this crescent moon mark, show this to them, and they will listen to you." He watched Feng Xuxu’s surprised face and then once again pulled her into his embrace.

Feng Xuxu nestled in Dugu Chen’s arms, looking at the pendant hanging outside and asked in a low voice, "Chen, what’s the story behind this pendant?"

"This represents the organization I’ve built over the last ten years abroad. I’m entrusting it to you, along with everything inside. Right now, I have nothing, so you’ll have to take care of me, my wife," Dugu Chen said with a twinkle in his eye, looking at the little woman in his arms.

"Heh heh heh, then you’d better behave yourself, or else, hmph, you’ll see." She tucked away the Jade Pendant and wrapped her arms around Dugu Chen in return.

"Your servant obeys," Dugu Chen said, looking at Feng Xuxu and bowing his head; his cold lips then pressed onto Feng Xuxu’s warm ones, slowly savoring the kiss. It felt like a century had passed before Dugu Chen finally let go of Feng Xuxu, and then he buried his head deeply into her hair once more, taking a long time to calm the excitement in his chest, only letting go when the heat below his belly had subsided, releasing the person he had been tormenting.
