Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 851: Chapter 861: Did You and Brother Junyang Have a Fight?

In the blink of an eye, it’s already early summer. Since returning from Imperial City, Instructor Mu’s training has become even more intense.

And with the annual exercise coming up soon, Instructor Mu’s visits home can be counted on one hand.

Close to noon, the sky suddenly darkened, and before long, it started to drizzle outside the window.

An Ran sat by the window, watching the curtain of rain outside, thinking to herself, wondering how that guy manages to train in this weather.

Xiao Xiao came over and nudged An Ran’s arm, ”Missing Instructor Mu, huh?”

An Ran didn’t deny it and nodded, ”This is the first time we haven’t seen each other for so long.”

Since Mu Xingfeng returned from Imperial City and went straight to the Guard Team, they haven’t met for almost a month. Occasionally, when they exchanged messages, it would take a long while to get a reply, sometimes in the middle of the night, sometimes when she’s in class; in short, hearing his voice became rare.

Xiao Xiao wrapped an arm around An Ran’s shoulder, teasingly saying, ”Being a married woman is different. Remember, back in the day, who would Young Master Ran think about? Honestly, I’m almost jealous of you.”

The comment made An Ran laugh, and she turned to Xiao Xiao, ”So, have you ever thought about Brother Yang?”

”Him?” Xiao Xiao scoffed dismissively, glancing at the rain outside the building, ”He’s not anyone to me. Why would I think about him?”

An Ran turned back, leaning against the window sill, frowning slightly.

Since the day they returned from Imperial City, Xiao Xiao’s demeanor has been off. She used to always pester her about Brother Yang, but it’s been almost a month, and she hasn’t asked about him once.

On the way back, she remembers that day was unusually quiet, Xiao Xiao slept all the way.

Originally, she thought it was because they went sightseeing the night before and didn’t rest well, but now it seems like it’s not that simple.

”Xiao Xiao, did you have a fight with Brother Yang?” After all, they never stop bickering.

”No,” Xiao Xiao replied quickly, without turning her head.

”No way, Xiao Xiao, are you hiding something from me?” An Ran pulled Xiao Xiao over, seeing the unmistakable loneliness in her eyes, ”Did Brother Yang bully you?”

An Ran suddenly remembered that day when Lin Junyang swore he would deal with Xiao Xiao and even mentioned getting a room, could it be true?

Xiao Xiao knew what An Ran was thinking, and gave a bitter smile, ”I wish he actually bullied me.”

Then she turned toward the window once more, ”Ranran, do you think Lin Junyang really doesn’t like my type?”

”Truly liking someone isn’t logical, it doesn’t change because you’re lively or gentle. I believe Brother Yang does have feelings for you, otherwise, why would Young Master Lin let you get away with so much with him?” An Ran said.

”Probably because I’m your best friend, at least he has to save some face,” Xiao Xiao could only think of it this way.

”Face? Since when does Young Master Lin concern himself with that? Feng Jingjing used to be a friend of my sister, and he still embarrassed her thoroughly. Xiao Xiao, Brother Yang might have been deeply hurt by the previous incident and hasn’t realized his feelings yet. I believe someday he’ll see your worth.”

”Ranran, I told him,” Xiao Xiao suddenly said.

An Ran was slightly puzzled, ”Told him what?”

”Told him I like him,” Xiao Xiao lowered her eyelids, watching the rainwater gathering on the path in front of the building, bubbling as it flowed into the distance.
