Chapter 671: Chapter 669: Are You Mad at Me?_1

Kang Xiaolan looked at Daisy with a face full of curiosity, "Daisy, has Yanqin accepted you?"

When Daisy heard her question, she immediately became a bit embarrassed; after all, most people knew that she liked Su Yanqin and that he didn’t like her back.

But she had been pursuing him for so many years, and he remained indifferent. Sometimes, she felt the urge to give up...

Yet, at the moment she decided to give up, she couldn’t bear to let go and didn’t have the heart to do it.

She could only give a dry laugh to everyone and said, "Hehehe... not yet..."

Kang Xiaolan raised an eyebrow and then said with a smile, "Don’t lose heart, keep it up! Constant effort wears away the stone, maybe before long, he’ll change his mind..."

"Mm... Thank you, Aunt Lan."

After hearing Kang Xiaolan’s words, Daisy felt delighted. Her personality had always been cheerful, and she wasn’t one to be overly sensitive or sentimental, so as long as she had a goal, she would strive for it, no matter how many obstacles were in her way, she would not give up easily!

Kang Xiaolan nodded understandingly with the look of someone who’s been through it all and then couldn’t help turning her attention to Su Yanruo sitting nearby.

The relationship between Su Yanruo and Mu Shiming was still stable, but the two of them had remained in the same place without moving forward, which made Kang Xiaolan very anxious; she couldn’t understand what they were thinking.

Her Shiming wasn’t young anymore and had reached the age to start a family...

Yan Yirou, Gong Yining, and Jian Manhui understood Kang Xiaolan’s expression and knew what she was thinking - after all, they had been friends for decades, how could they not understand if they were really old friends and good sisters.

"Yanruo, you and Shiming have also been dating for quite some time. When do you plan to get married?" Yan Yirou asked Su Yanruo with a smiling face.

Su Yanruo didn’t expect the topic to suddenly shift to her, and she was momentarily stunned. But it was just a moment, and then she looked at Yan Yirou and said, "Aunt Rou... we haven’t planned yet..."

That single phrase, "haven’t planned yet," suddenly made Kang Xiaolan’s hope dissolve into disappointment. She had been looking forward to playing with a grandchild...

"Oh... hehe, you haven’t planned yet? But you and Shiming should start thinking about marriage..." Yan Yirou said casually.

Su Yanruo glanced at Kang Xiaolan nearby, feeling a bit awkward. Discussing this topic in front of her future mother-in-law, was that really appropriate?

But since Yan Yirou had already asked, she felt embarrassed not to answer, "It’s early... no rush..."

As soon as she spoke, Kang Xiaolan almost fainted. Early... no rush?

She was anxious, okay?

Alas, it seemed she’d have to ask Shiming. The sooner the marriage, the sooner they could be at ease...

Mu Ziqing was somewhat distracted. Before Huo En arrived, she had been in an exceptionally good mood, but after his arrival, she felt inexplicably down, especially after learning that he was a Duke from E Country.

Initially, she felt that there was already a lot separating her from him, things unseen. Now, it seemed like there were even more barriers between them.

Huo En occasionally chatted with Mu Feng and others, and while doing so, he also remembered to look after Mu Ziqing by his side.

However, Mu Ziqing didn’t seem to appreciate it much. The banquet had barely started when she used any excuse to leave the private room.

The moment she was out, Huo En immediately stood up and followed her out.

The outside of the private room was buzzing with excitement, but Mu Ziqing, who usually liked such hustle and bustle, now wanted to find a place for some peace and quiet.

She hadn’t walked far when her arm was suddenly seized by a domineering force.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she turned her head in alarm—

Sure enough—

The visage that met her eyes was sinfully mesmerizing, and those deep amber eyes glimmered with an inscrutable light...

Mu Ziqing’s heart uncontrollably leapt, and then she awkwardly averted her gaze...

"What are you doing out here?"

Huo En, however, seemed deaf to her question and pulled her in a certain direction.

"What are you doing!"

"Hey... where are you taking me?"

"Huo En!"

Mu Ziqing kept asking questions behind Huo En, but he still didn’t utter a word, pulling her toward the elevator.

Seeing that he was heading for the elevator, Mu Ziqing suddenly felt panicked. Where was he taking her?

Just as she was about to ask again, Huo En finally gave a slight reaction, "I’m taking you out for some fresh air..."

After hearing his words, Mu Ziqing calmed down, obediently followed him, and entered the elevator.

When Huo En brought her to the Shenghong International rooftop garden, Mu Ziqing immediately let go of his hand and walked to a chair on her own.

Huo En looked at the petulant Mu Ziqing and couldn’t help but curl his lips into a smile.

He sighed helplessly, then walked towards Mu Ziqing with elegant steps.

"Are you mad at me?" Huo En’s magnetic and deep voice sounded, so melodious that it made Mu Ziqing’s heart beat faster.

She wasn’t mad at all!

Thinking so, she turned her head away, refusing to look at Huo En standing in front of her.

Huo En watched her adorable antics and chuckled softly.

She was already cute, but even more so when she was being willful, stirring in him feelings of tenderness.

"Qiqi..." he couldn’t help but reach out and touch her head.

Mu Ziqing immediately frowned; his gesture made her feel like he was petting a little dog.

She quickly looked up, staring at him with her eyes!

But Huo En felt her gaze lacked any lethality...

He suddenly bent down, took one of her hands, and kissed it without saying another word.

Mu Ziqing was shocked!

"Nearly three months without seeing each other, did you miss me?" Huo En took advantage of Mu Ziqing’s stunned moment, sat next to her, and then with a long reach of his arm, she was already in his embrace.

Mu Ziqing was a bit slow to react. How did she end up in his arms so suddenly?

What was the situation?

"I missed you a lot..." Huo En said in a low voice and nonchalantly lowered his head, kissing Mu Ziqing.

Mu Ziqing was even more astonished. Although it wasn’t their first kiss, each time she felt so nervous that she could hardly breathe.

Huo En’s kiss was very domineering, leaving Mu Ziqing no room to retreat. He held the back of her head with both hands, kissing her deeply, fervently...

Mu Ziqing was kissed until she became almost deliriously dazed. When she was about to run out of breath, Huo En finally let her go...

But after releasing her, he asked, "Still mad?"

The corner of Mu Ziqing’s mouth twitched...

Still mad?

What did he mean?

Did he think that just by kissing her, all the anger in her heart would vanish?

"Whether I’m mad has nothing to do with you, Duke..."

Mu Ziqing deliberately emphasized the word "Duke".

It’s hard to tell that this person is a young and promising Duke...
