Chapter 138: Being infatuated with one's lover.
As the first rays of morning sunlight shone through the thin sheet of Xuan paper into the room, Mu Long, who was lying on the recliner, stirred. He habitually stroked the little kitten sleeping on his chest with one finger. In response, the adorable kitten began to stomp its tiny paws against Mu Long's handsome face.
Sweetie, stop stomping on Daddy's handsome face with your little paws all the time, okay? It hurts Daddy's face.
After saying this, Mu Long picked up the kitten that was lying on his chest and placed it on the floor. He squinted his eyes and affectionately patted the kitten's bottom.
"Go find Grandma, be good! Your grandma must be up by now!" Mu Long said, then lay back down on the recliner. But a moment later, a basin of ice-cold water was mercilessly splashed on Mu Long.
Who is it? Who would be so bold as to splash your Dragon Lord with such cold water?
Haha! In all the time I've spent with you, Young Master Mu Long, I never realized you had such an adorable and innocent side.
Seeing her son still drunk, Yuqin was furious! So she placed the washbasin she was holding on Mulong's desk. Just as she was about to go behind the door to get a broom to give the intoxicated Mulong a good beating, Xia Rong stopped her.
Auntie, what are you doing? Didn't you just throw cold water on Mu Long? Why are you still so angry?
Look at this kid's behavior and you'll know why I'm so angry! I've been locked up by those petty thieves for days. This kid not only didn't try to rescue me, but he's been drinking himself into a stupor all day.
After saying this, Yuqin disregarded her image and kicked Mulong hard with her foot. This finally caused Mulong, who was sleeping on the recliner, to lose his temper.
"Who is it? How dare they kick your Lord Long! Are you really tired of living?" Mu Long said this while reaching for his waist with one hand. Before Mu Long could even touch his most beloved dagger, a cold dagger was pressed against Mu Long's neck.
Hehe! Long'er, are you looking for your most beloved dagger? I'm calling you Long'er so affectionately, who do you think I am?
When Mu Long heard Yu Qin ask him this question, half of the smell of alcohol on his body immediately disappeared.
Mother? Oh, my dear mother! Why are you so angry? Didn't you take my kitten out to play?
Longlong, Mommy's asking you now! What's today's date?
Hehe! Why would you ask me such a silly question, Mom? It's because of July 29th, of course!
After hearing Mu Long's answer to her question, Yu Qin shook her head helplessly.
Mu Long, how much alcohol did you drink to be so confused? It's already August 2nd! Army Day has already passed.
After Xia Rong finished speaking, she walked up to Mu Long and pulled him up from the recliner.
Hehehe! My dear Rong'er, what brings you to my Shenglong Hotel today? Do you know? This beautiful and luxurious hotel is a gift I, Mulong, specially prepared for my elder brother!
Auntie! What's wrong with Mu Long? Why is he so drunk? Judging from his appearance, I feel like something has happened that has really upset him.
Haha! What could possibly upset this silly boy I gave birth to? It's just that these past few days I've been constantly urging him to marry you. This silly boy, for some reason, keeps avoiding the topic.
Perhaps it's because he was married before and had two daughters with another woman that he felt he was no longer qualified to marry me?
After Xia Rong finished speaking, she hugged Taki, who was standing in front of her.
Ah! How could this silly boy tell you something as important as the fact that he's already been married once? Isn't he afraid that he'll leave you after you find out?
Haha! Auntie, do you really think someone as smart and wise as Mu Long would do something so foolish? If I hadn't met one of his precious daughters while strolling around Longsheng Street with Mu Long two months ago, I would never have known that he had already married another woman.
There's no way he'd tell me he has two daughters with another woman. He's afraid I'd argue with him about it.
Hehe! I'm a little curious, if you two have a fight, who's the first to back down and admit fault?
Auntie, who do you think will be the first to admit their mistake? Let me tell you! Brother Mu Long will never let me suffer even the slightest injustice.
Upon hearing Xia Rong's words, Yuqin already knew the answer. To avoid unnecessary embarrassment, Yuqin decided to change the subject.
Ah! You mean you and Long'er met that girl Youyou? Did Youyou do anything to hurt you?
Yuqin pulled Xia Rong along and carefully tidied her up and down. After confirming that Xia Rong was alright, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Haha! Auntie, why did you look me up and down like that, and then breathe a sigh of relief?
I just wanted to check if you were hurt. You don't know that although Youyou is very young, she is very shrewd and resourceful.
Hehe! Auntie, I think you don't need to worry too much about that! Because my father hired a highly skilled martial artist to teach me martial arts when I was very young. So ordinary thieves are no match for me, let alone a little girl who has just turned eight.
Hi! I really envy you having such a wonderful father who plans your future like this. Unlike me, who was kidnapped and sold to a completely unfamiliar place at a young age. Let alone someone who would meticulously plan my future like this.
Mother, what do you mean by that? Isn't your hometown Jiang Le? And what did you mean when you said you were abducted and sold here?
He was overjoyed to see his favorite woman standing right in front of him. So he pulled Xia Rong into his arms and spun her around in circles.
My dear Rong'er, what brings you to my Shenglong Hotel today? Oh, right! Mother, didn't you just take little Furong out?
Mother, didn't you just take Little Hibiscus out to play?
Why can't I see the little guy anymore?
Shouldn't I be asking you that? We've been looking for that cute little figure ever since we entered the hotel. But we've searched everywhere and still can't find it. Didn't it come to the hotel to find you?
No, I didn't see Little Hibiscus the whole time. Wait, wasn't it with you the whole time? Why did it come back on its own? Did something happen to you?
When Yuqin heard Mulong ask her this question, she hesitated again, wondering whether she should tell Mulong about being poisoned by the arrow.
She didn't want Murong to worry about her because of this, but it was about Xiao Furong, so she had to say it.
Before Yuqin could speak, Yun Shi, with a smile, said faster, "Auntie, she was hit by a poisoned arrow and collapsed." It was too early, so they had to throw Xiao Furong out.
We all thought this clever little guy would run to the Shenglong Hotel to find you.
Upon hearing that his mother had been struck by a poisoned arrow, he disregarded everything else and immediately began to thoroughly examine his conscience.
Mother, weren't you hit by a poisoned arrow? Why don't I have any wounds?
That's because as soon as you got injured, I immediately applied that magic potion you gave me to Auntie's wound. Unexpectedly, a miracle happened; Auntie's wound actually healed.
Is that the bottle of nerve potion you mentioned the one I gave you last time? I told you not to take it out and use it unless there's an emergency.
But it was your own mother who was injured, Murong! Isn't this an emergency? Or are you, Murong, just a cold-blooded and heartless person?
