BXBX NOVEL Chapter 74
Chapter 74
Yi Feng, having gained an advantage, played cute, “Miss Gu, your massage skills are really good!”
He found Gu Muxi’s fingers exceptionally smooth and comfortable to press.
Gu Muxi huffed, intentionally increasing the pressure on his temples.
“Ow, ow! Gu Muxi, be gentle!”
“Oops, my apologies, Yi Feng. I accidentally used a bit too much strength.”
“Ouch! Gu Muxi, if you keep this up, you’ll be sent to the cold palace!”
“I’m so scared. But before being sent to the cold palace, can I send you to the underworld?”
Yi Feng felt a “murderous” vibe and stiffened, quickly laughing it off, “Cough cough, I was just joking, don’t be like that.”
Better not to provoke her when his head is literally in her hands.
Gu Muxi haughtily huffed and finally released his head, “Alright, seeing you so spirited, you should be fine. I’m leaving.”
Saying this, Gu Muxi stood up and walked towards the shop door.
Yi Feng hurriedly followed.
“Gu Muxi, wait for me!”
Just as they left the shop, they bumped into Han Ping’an and Han Nannan, the siblings, returning with daily supplies.
“Brother Feng, Sister Xi, are you heading back?” Han Nannan asked with wide eyes.
“Brother Feng, a hangover remedy.” Han Ping’an silently took out a bottle of medicine from his pocket and handed it to Yi Feng.
Yi Feng accepted the medicine without hesitation, “Thanks, Ping’an.”
“You tidy up a bit and then close the shop to rest,” he added.
Han Ping’an nodded in agreement, “Yes, Brother Feng.”
At this moment, Gu Muxi called from ahead, “Yi Feng, are you coming or not? If not, I’m leaving!”
“Hey, wait, I’m coming!”
Yi Feng responded and hurried out.
“Gu Muxi, don’t ride off yet, wait for me!”
“Don’t make me jump on the bike, haha!”
Yi Feng leaped onto the bicycle’s rear seat.
But the force destabilized the bicycle, causing it to topple over, and both of them fell to the ground.
“Ah! Stinky Yi Feng, it’s all your fault!” Gu Muxi got up, hands on her hips, glaring at him.
“No, it’s your fault for not stopping!”
“Deserving of a kick!”
“Hey, you can’t hit me!”
“Damn it, I’m so mad, don’t you run!”
“Come catch me, catch me and I’ll let you, hehehe!”
“Wait, if I catch you, I’ll dismantle your bones!”
The two chased and frolicked in front of the shop.
Han Nannan watched them with a genuine smile, “Brother, look how happy Brother Feng and Sister Xi are playing!”
Han Ping’an’s lips curled into a rare smile, “Yeah.”
Brother Feng is lucky to have such a childhood friend…
Truly enviable.
…
“Enough, stinky Yi Feng, I’m not playing with you anymore, I’m going home!” Gu Muxi stopped, huffing in exasperation.
“Alright, no more playing, I’m feeling dizzy,” Yi Feng said, pretending to be drunk.
Gu Muxi glared at him secretly.
Still pretending? Weren’t you running around just fine a moment ago?
Hmph~ always bullying me!
Gu Muxi went back to the bicycle, lifted it, and said, “Stinky Feng, get on.”
“Sure thing!”
Yi Feng laughed and settled on the rear seat of the bicycle.
Gu Muxi started pedaling forward.
Suddenly, Yi Feng caught a whiff of her unique fragrance, a mix of her hair and body scent.
Distinctive, refreshing, and soothing.
Yi Feng wrapped his arms around her slim waist, pulling her closer.
Gu Muxi felt her waist encircled and her face flushed, her heart racing.
Stinky Yi Feng, do you need to hold on so tight?
It’s ticklish!
Considering Yi Feng was drunk and might fall off if not held tightly, she let him be, despite the discomfort.
As they rode, Yi Feng gazed at the slowly receding city lights and asked, “Gu Muxi, what animal do you like?”
Gu Muxi replied without turning her head, “Cats.”
Yi Feng: “Meow~”
Gu Muxi: “…”
“Hehe, then I like dogs.”
Yi Feng: “Woof woof woof!”
Gu Muxi: “…”
“Yi Feng, you must be the most shameless person in history, truly unparalleled.”
Yi Feng: “Thanks for the compliment.”
Gu Muxi: “Truly, shamelessly invincible!”
Yi Feng chuckled, “Being invincible is always so lonely.”
Gu Muxi huffed, then suddenly asked, “Yi Feng, are you eager to make money?”
“Yeah, if I don’t start making money, I’ll get old.”
“As the saying goes, nothing is difficult for those with money. With money, life has fewer troubles,” Yi Feng said lightly.
“Nothing is difficult for those with money? Yi Feng, you do have a way with words,” Gu Muxi laughed.
“Isn’t that the truth? Some are born in Rome, and some are born as cattle. If you don’t strive to make money, you’ll end up serving others,” Yi Feng stated calmly.
Gu Muxi thought it over and found it made sense, “I didn’t expect you to have such deep insights into life, Yi Feng!”
“Of course, if I were still attached to worldly desires, I’d have become a monk by now.”
“But even if I were a monk, I’d want you in the nunnery next door, hehe,” Yi Feng said, holding her tighter, wishing to stay in this moment forever.
Gu Muxi was right there, not leaving.
“Wishful thinking. I haven’t even found a partner yet. How could I become a nun?” Gu Muxi said proudly.
“A partner? How about me?”
“You? Not so much.”
Yi Feng: “…”
“Gu Muxi, your mouth is quite sharp, isn’t it?”
“Yi Feng, you’re really annoying! Thick-skinned!”
“Gu Muxi, I’m warning you, don’t be arrogant!”
“Hehe, what are you going to do about it?”
Riding on one bike, the two bickered in unique accents, drawing curious glances from passersby.
…
As the night deepened, they arrived at the staff residential area and stopped the bike downstairs.
“Alright, Yi Feng, we’ve arrived. Get off,” Gu Muxi turned and said.
“My queen, you did well today. I’ll surely reward you handsomely another day!” Yi Feng got off the bike, joking.
Gu Muxi rolled her eyes, “Reward your ghost. Go wash up and sleep!”
“I’m exhausted. Next time you get drunk, see if I don’t leave you on the street!”
Yi Feng laughed awkwardly, then his stomach suddenly protested with a “gurgle.”
He had only eaten lunch and was now starving.
Yi Feng looked at Gu Muxi with hopeful eyes.
Gu Muxi was taken aback, “What are you looking at me for?”
Yi Feng blinked pitifully, gazing at her with a “poor little me” look.
“Gu Muxi, you wouldn’t just watch me starve to death, right?”
