Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 970 - Chapter 970 Chapter 969 Embarrassment

Chapter 970: Chapter 969: Embarrassment Chapter 970: Chapter 969: Embarrassment Gu Qiu’s cheeks blazed red as she waved her hands frantically, “No, no, it’s not like that, really not like that.” She wasn’t afraid that Zuo Xinyao had bad intentions, but that she had bad intentions!

“Then what are you afraid of? The house is so big, there are plenty of rooms. For safety considerations,” Nan Fei leaned close and whispered in Gu Qiu’s ear, “If you go, having Zuo Xinyao protect you would put my mind at ease too! You know… what a jerk Huo Beijiang is, just an unreasonable thug. I’m very worried about what excessive things he might do.”

“And it’s just across the street, it would also be convenient to look after Yu Yiji and Jiang Yang.”

Now these two kids were boarding at school and only came back once a week.

Next time they return it will still be five days! Hopefully, there will be a surprise by then.

Gu Qiu bit her lip, weighed the situation, and finally compromised.

Soon, with the help of Zuo Xinyao and Nan Fei, Gu Qiu moved across the street to temporarily stay. When she left, she made sure to remind them not to forget to eat the freshly made cookies.

No sooner had she finished speaking than Zuo Xinyao, who was passing by, grabbed them casually.

Once the living room finally quieted down, Nan Fei realized something seemed off. She clearly wanted to give Gu Qiu and Zuo Xinyao a push. How come it seemed like she’d dug a hole for herself?

Was it just her and Bei Jiang left in the house now?

“Cough cough…” Nan Fei cleared her throat, “Have you eaten?”

“I have!” Huo Beijiang, with injuries on his back, couldn’t lean back on the couch and could only prop himself up by his elbows on his knees, gazing deeply at his little wife. The more he looked, the more he liked her, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curved into a pleased smile.

Bright and shining eyes, gleaming brightly as if filled with stardust irresistibly immersing others in their depth.

Nan Fei guiltily turned her head away, not daring to meet his eyes.

“Was everything smooth today? Did you get hurt?” Nan Fei remembered how in the past life, Bei Jiang wouldn’t utter a word even when gravely injured.

She often didn’t know.

“Let me have a look.” Thinking this, Nan Fei was no longer calm, even feeling guilty. It was all her fault for being careless; she should have immediately checked as soon as he walked in.

Nan Fei hurried to undress Bei Jiang, her hands frantic and unknowing as they touched him.

Huo Beijiang’s breathing became noticeably rapid. He reached out and locked his arms around Nan Fei’s waist. In an instant, the world spun around and their positions switched, pinning her completely beneath him.

Eyes locked, breaths entangled.

Nan Fei immediately found herself lost in his profound eyes, her cheeks slowly turning a cherry red akin to polished jade.

There seemed to be a flame burning in Huo Beijiang’s eyes as he lowered his head and gently kissed the tip of her nose, teasingly saying, “Are you that eager to take my clothes off, hmm?”

The final hmm, like a hook, ensnared her mind and soul.

Nan Fei’s breath hitched, finding it increasingly difficult to resist his allure. After taking several deep breaths, she barely managed to speak, “How are you, really? Are you injured again?”

“Does it hurt your heart?” Huo Beijiang stared directly at her, masking the expectation in his eyes, “Would you feel pain if I were injured?”

Nan Fei grew frustrated, “What kind of nonsense is that? How could I not be in pain if you were injured?”

If she didn’t care, would she be so easily captured like she was now?

She might not dare to claim many things, but one aspect would remain unchanged across her past and current lives. That is, she would never compromise with someone she did not like. No matter who they were, if she liked them, she liked them; if she didn’t, she didn’t.
