Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 1545: Chapter 1560: Must Transfer Schools

”Perfect timing, I’m heading that way too, let’s go together,” Zheng Kai said before An Ran could decline, walking alongside her towards the school gate.

An Ran didn’t mind, as Longteng Xinyuan was not far from the school. She always walked home, stopping by the market halfway to buy some groceries.

At the school gate, Mu Xingfeng lifted his wrist to check the time again. School was over, and she should be out in a few minutes.

When he looked up, the familiar silhouette in the distance caught his eye. His lips lifted slightly, but the smile quickly vanished upon seeing the girl laughing and chatting with the person beside her.

Lin Junyang’s words echoed in his ears—just as Lin Junyang worried about a boy capturing Xiao Xiao’s heart, he needed to beware of any boy with ulterior motives appearing beside his young wife.

Even from a distance, with his excellent vision, he clearly saw the admiration and tenderness in the eyes of the young man.

No wonder, his young wife was so cute, so charming; it would be unbelievable if she didn’t have admirers, especially since their marriage was hidden.

Thinking about this, Mu Xingfeng’s aura grew cold.

He vividly remembered how his young wife used to dislike his age. Although she later claimed not to mind the age difference, the three-year gap truly seemed a generational difference and the five-year gap, a chasm in his heart. She must have cared, right? Pretending not to mind just so he wouldn’t feel hurt?

Watching her laughing and chatting with that young boy, what could they possibly have so much to talk about? Was it really that people of the same age shared more common interests?

No, she had to transfer. He couldn’t leave his young wife alone in Nan’an anymore; it was too worrying.

An Ran arrived at the school gate and immediately saw the man in the distance.

For the past few days in Nan’an, he’d been dressed casually. His pure black coat outlined his tall, straight figure, complemented by his cold, striking features. Just standing there, he became a unique scenery.

Every girl passing by turned to glance at him, with some even secretly snapping pictures with their phones.

”An Ran, you need dinner too. If there’s no hurry, why not...”

Zheng Kai hadn’t finished speaking when he felt a gust beside him, as An Ran had already dashed away.

”Mu Xingfeng~”

An Ran was no longer listening to anyone else; all she could see was the man before her.

He hadn’t mentioned he’d come pick her up today. She had thought he’d be busy until dinner time before returning home.

Zheng Kai watched bewildered as An Ran ran off, staring as she threw herself into a man’s embrace, his mind momentarily frozen.

He saw An Ran affectionately hold the man’s arm, her small face smiling like a sunflower gazing at the sun.

And this man was not the imagined brother from An Ran’s adoptive father’s family.

”Mu Xingfeng, why are you here so early today, have you finished your errands?”

An Ran gently shook his arm. Mu Xingfeng had already been transferred to the Imperial City. Dressed casually today, since he was picking her up at the school gate, she knew he didn’t mind publicizing their relationship.

Moreover, their wedding was approaching, which signified announcing their relationship to the world.

Yet, what responded to her was a chill she hadn’t felt for a long time, like standing atop an eight-thousand-meter snow-capped mountain, causing her to shiver involuntarily.
