Chapter 1218: I Lost Sleep!
As he spoke, his handsome face grew larger in her line of sight. From the looks of it, he wanted to kiss her again.
Qiao Mu quickly covered his face with her palm. “Restrain your mouth!”
Even so, a certain person looked at her innocently, “I didn’t say anything!”
Seeing his guileless look, Qiao Mu broke into laughter. She hooked his neck with her arm and toppled him so that he was under her. She then proceeded to hug him like a “Mo Lian-brand” body pillow and pecked his chin with a stoic expression. “Sleep now! See you tomorrow, my Lian.”
Hence, the man who had originally planned to flirt with his wife ended up turning stiff.
After lying there like a plank for a while, he squirmed and called out hoarsely, “Qiaoqiao.”
There was no response from the little fellow!
“Darling, quickly get up!”
However, Qiao Mu did not make a sound and her breathing had also turned rhythmic and even. It was obvious that she had fallen asleep!
Mo Lian: … You’re actually able to fall asleep the second after toppling me, you!
So infuriating!
Was he not pretty or attractive enough?
Why was this insensitive little lass able to fall asleep in less than three seconds in front of him…
He really wanted to bite her, but he was also worried that that would disturb her slumber.
After staring at this vexing little one in exasperation, Mo Lian hugged her waist. He cuddled her soft body before sighing in melancholy, “Whatever should I do with you.”
Consequently, his imagination ran wild for most of the night before his mind finally drifted off to sleep.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw the little fellow observing him close up with her glossy, round eyes.
Her eyes were as round as longan fruits, as if she was looking at some monster!
“Why are you here?”
When Mo Lian heard this, he started fuming. He promptly pulled her small, soft body into his embrace and nibbled her slightly puffed out cheeks. “Ask yourself.”
By this time, Qiao Mu had already recalled yesterday’s events. It seemed like she had brazenly pounced over and toppled him before treating him as her body pillow for the entire night!
But she wasn’t going to admit to that.
The little fellow blinked before promptly slapping his hands away. She turned over to sit up while muttering, “Ask myself what, alright, we should get up and set out now.”
Suddenly, her head spun, and her eyes widened as she looked strangely at the man who had abruptly appeared above her.
“Why are you pressing down on me?”
“You already pressed down on me the entire night, but you’re not allowing me to do the same to you for a little bit?” Mo Lian gritted his teeth as he pointed at his eyes. “Look.”
“They’re good-looking.”
Mo Lian corrected in both amusement and exasperation, “What good-looking, I want you to look at how you made me get dark circles under my eyes, understand? Because you pressed down on me last night, I didn’t sleep well at all!”
Qiao Mu peered at him guiltily before reaching out to rub his head. “Alright, alright, I’ll let you sleep well tonight.”
“And then?”
“And then what.” Qiao Mu’s gaze wandered about as she pushed against his chest. “It’s getting late. We still have to set out for that small base inside the Mystic Beast Forest.”
“I request to be toppled back.”
While twitching her mouth, Qiao Mu hugged him and sputtered, “No way, no way!”
“It’s fine if you topple me back, but you have to give me three make-up kisses.”
“You’re just haggling.” Qiao Mu rolled her eyes at him, but then she swiftly drew close and kissed him on the cheek. “There’s your kiss, so get up!”
Yet Crown Prince Mo looked at her in dissatisfaction. “How superficial! This time doesn’t count, so you still owe me three times. You can make all of them up next time.”
