Gain A Cute Wife By “Kidnap”

Chapter 62

C62 – You Just Kiss Me Once

Left alone on the sidelines, Elina seethed with anger, wishing she could yank Shang Xiaojie away from Mu Sifa and give him a sound scolding.

“Sifa! Time’s up! Go check on the patient,” she exclaimed.

Though her anger was near boiling point, she suppressed it, maintaining a facade of composure in front of the onlookers.

“Alright,” he replied, not meeting Elina’s gaze. To her dismay, he even planted a kiss on Shang Xiaojie.

Initially shy, Shang Xiaojie now openly reciprocated. He aimed to show Elina that Mu Sifa was his, a gesture to deter her covetousness.

Being dismissed by Mu Sifa further fueled Elina’s ire. The sight of Shang Xiaojie grinning only heightened her annoyance.

“Get back to work! I’ll wait here,” Shang Xiaojie suggested sensibly, not wanting to intrude on Mu Sifa’s responsibilities.

Reluctant to release Shang Xiaojie, Mu Sifa was torn. Touching him was comforting, but it also held a kind of enchantment. He didn’t want to relinquish his hold. Yet, taking him into the ward wasn’t an option, so he reluctantly lowered him.

“I’ll be back shortly. Stay here and be good,” he assured.

“Alright.”

The smile was incredibly endearing, tempting Mu Sifa to just wrap him up and take him along.

How could this kid be so adorable? Ah, no, no. Mu Sifa reminded himself to stay composed and not get carried away.

After those words, Shang Xiaojie stared at him blankly, then blinked his innocent eyes, causing Mu Sifa to falter instantly.

“Your husband is about to get really busy, so he can’t offer me a ‘recharge’?” Despite his intention, Mu Sifa suddenly teased Shang Xiaojie.

“Recharge? Why would you need a recharge!” Shang Xiaojie’s fluttering long eyelashes resembled a fan as he gazed at Mu Sifa with adorable confusion.

Mu Sifa anticipated this question, so he pointed at his own cheeks and said, “Give me a kiss, and I’ll leave, or else I might just take you with me.”

Shang Xiaojie paused, then his face gradually turned crimson. Covering his face, he scolded, “You rascal, you’re so shameless.”

“What’s improper about kissing me? Come on, I’m in a hurry,” Mu Sifa urged, not wanting to give Shang Xiaojie any chance to escape.

Seeing Mu Sifa’s impatience, Shang Xiaojie figured he was stalling. He bashfully shut his eyes, quickly planted a kiss on Mu Sifa, and then continued to hide his face.

“You, just go already. If you don’t, I won’t wait for you any longer.”

He reckoned he had exhausted all his shyness for the day!

“Alright, alright, alright. I’ll go.”

Mu Sifa felt a surge of happiness, leaving a kiss on Shang Xiaojie’s hand before departing.

Ahhh, it’s such a pity, you only seem to enjoy teasing me.

Shang Xiaojie held on until the sound of Mu Sifa’s footsteps faded into the distance.

As soon as Mu Sifa was out of sight, Shang Xiaojie breathed a sigh of relief. Yet, his relief quickly turned into surprise when he realized Elina was still present, glaring at him with intensity.

“Yes, is there something wrong?” His astonishment was palpable.

“I’m fine.” The situation suddenly improved. His lips curved into a smile, but beneath that smile lurked a deep desire to tear Shang Xiaojie apart.

His emotions flipped like the pages of a book. What’s her problem? Could it be that she, too, is attracted to Mu Sifa?

“I never expected Sifa to marry a man. I’m quite taken aback. If he’s sincere, then it’s fine. But I worry he’s just playing with you. You wouldn’t want to end up heartbroken, would you?”

He simulated concern for Shang Xiaojie, yet his true intention was to rattle him.

Shang Xiaojie and Mu Sifa didn’t commence on good terms, so this observation felt like a jab to their hearts.

Is Mu Sifa just playing with me? His face drained of color once again.
