Chapter 739: Chapter 738 Stop laughing_1 Chapter 739: Chapter 738 Stop laughing_1 “Hahaha…” Huo Beijiang couldn’t help but laugh heartily. His laughter was cheerful and all previous gloominess vanished. “Wife, you are too cute.”

Nan Fei was baffled. Did she say something wrong? Why was he laughing inexplicably?

However, while he was distracted, she silently fastened the buttons of her clothes.

“Stop laughing!”

“Alright!” Huo Beijiang tried to suppress his laughter, but after three seconds, he murmured, “I can’t help it, wife.” Not that he couldn’t stop laughing, but that he couldn’t control his physical desire. The woman in his arms was more lethal than opium to him, impossible to resist, yet he had to force himself to do so.

Huo Beijiang clenched his fist and slammed it against the door to vent his agitation.

“Even if you can’t help it, bear with it.” Nan Fei was angry at his inability to stop laughing, piqued to the point where smoke almost rose from her head.

This man deserved to be a lifelong bachelor. Whoever married him would be unlucky, surely to be angered to death one day.

“Wife, do you think I can’t see you secretly buttoning up just because the lights are off? I can see clearly.” Huo Beijiang stared intently at the snow white before his eyes, his rationality long consumed by flames.

He knew he shouldn’t keep looking. If he did, he didn’t know what impulsive thing he might do, yet he couldn’t bear to look away.

Nan Fei: “…” She wanted to hit someone, what should she do?

“Didn’t Ning Di say you were in a bad mood, locking yourself in the room, not eating or drinking, and not seeing anyone?”

“Yes! But everything became fine after seeing you.” In order to control the urge in his body, Huo Beijiang took a few steps back and casually leaned against a sand table. His eyes darted around: he wanted to look, but at the same time feared what animalistic thing he might do.

But wouldn’t he be worse than an animal if he just stared without doing anything?

This thought profoundly shocked Major General Huo, Third Master Huo. He recalled his illustrious life of the past twenty-odd years, compared it with his current state, and hardly recognized himself.

“Less gibberish.” Nan Fei cut him off weakly, and tentatively asked, “What exactly did Lu Dongxin say to you? You locked yourself in the office without coming out, not even for dinner.”

“Did Ning Di also tell you this?” He had planned to praise her, but it seems he should ask her to write a self-criticism instead.

“Hmm!” Nan Fei finally managed to tidy up her clothes in a fluster and wanted to approach him. But in the darkness, even though he was casually leaning against the sand table, his presence still posed a great restraint on her, stopping her in her tracks.

“Where is the light switch? I’ll turn on the light.”

“Wait!” Huo Beijiang suddenly stopped her, “Wait a moment before turning on the light.” He didn’t want ‘his wife’ to see him in his current state.

From his hoarse voice, Nan Fei vaguely guessed something, her cheeks turning a rosy pink. She obediently stood in place, uncertain whether to move or stay still.

In fact, she was no longer afraid of him. The deep-seated fear from her past life had gradually dissipated. She did not wish to see him struggling so hard and did not want to keep testing his self-control.

“Maybe I shouldn’t have come?” Nan Fei said guiltily.

“Nonsense!” Someone sternly reproached her, pulling out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and started puffing out smoke rings. The glow of the cigarette flickered in the darkness, occasionally illuminating Huo Beijiang’s handsome chin.
