Gain A Cute Wife By “Kidnap”

Chapter 220

C220 – Find an Excuse

“Why are you laughing? Something seems amiss!”

What’s wrong with this man? Instead of getting angry when scolded by me, he’s laughing. He used to get angry instantly.

“So, you believe I’m unwell.” I’d be content if that’s what you think.

Shang Cijie was seething with frustration. He felt a whirlwind of emotions, none of which were pleasant.

Absolutely not. I can’t deviate from my plan and give him attention. I’ll remain as distant as I was in the beginning.

“Hurry up and locate your son. What are you waiting for?” He intentionally adopted a stern expression and tone.

Mu Sifa remained unfazed, “Alright, I’ll go find my son.” Before leaving, he bent down to kiss Shang Cijie’s forehead before exiting the room.

Shang Cijie was left in bewilderment, touching his lips for a while.

Being kissed on the forehead by Mu Sifa so gently?

Mu Sifa had caught him off guard once more. Shang Cijie had resolved to pull himself together.

Oh, I’m losing control! Why am I letting him lead me astray again? This can’t be! Shang Cijie, snap out of it!

Shang Cijie promptly slapped his face to rouse himself, but as soon as he did, his face flushed, and he buried himself under the blanket, too embarrassed to look up.

Blast it! He lost control again. Next time, he must regain his composure.

Mu Sifa didn’t go far. He had been standing by the door all this time, taking note of Shang Cijie’s actions. He understood that Shang Cijie didn’t truly despise him.

He suddenly broke into a smile, in a remarkably good mood. He eventually went to search for Shang Mingming.

Mu Sifa assumed Shang Mingming would be at Mu Xiaoxiao’s place, but no one was there. He then descended to the first floor. Despite his efforts to locate Shang Mingming, he couldn’t seem to find him.

“Where can a child go so late?”

Memories of Shang Cijie’s departure five years ago suddenly resurfaced in Mu Sifa’s mind, causing him discomfort.

“What’s on your mind, Mu Sifa? The little one must still be at home.”

Mu Sifa tried to reassure himself but then hastily left the courtyard. However, upon reaching the outside, he was taken aback once more. He rushed back to the second floor, unable to bear the suspense.

As expected, he found Shang Mingming peacefully sleeping on the couch in the small hall.

Mu Sifa breathed a sigh of relief, muttering, “I wonder what others were so worried about!” “And sleeping so soundly.”

He stooped down to pick up Shang Mingming and headed for their room.

“Did you find him? Why did it take you so long?”

Upon his return, Shang Cijie complained because Mu Sifa had been absent for more than ten minutes.

Mu Sifa always had an underlying fear when it came to finding someone, stemming from the past incident with Shang Cijie. However, he kept this concern to himself. Now that Shang Mingming had been located and Shang Cijie had returned, he felt content.

“The little one fell asleep in the small hall. I didn’t spot him at first, so it took me a while.”

Mu Sifa placed Shang Mingming on the bed but not in the middle where Wu Steel usually slept. Instead, he positioned the child beside Shang Cijie and nestled against Shang Cijie as they both drifted off to sleep.

Shang Cijie couldn’t possibly share a bed with Mu Sifa at such close proximity. He promptly moved Shang Mingming and separated the two.

“Little one, what would I do if I were to sleep in the middle?”

In truth, Mu Sifa just wanted to embrace Shang Cijie as they slept.

“Are you acting like a child?” Shang Cijie rolled his eyes at Mu Sifa.

“Well, then, consider me one.” Mu Sifa playfully pulled Shang Cijie into his arms. Unfortunately, poor Shang Mingming was once again overlooked.
