Chapter 755: Chapter 737: Xiao Muli is the Introverted but Passionate Type (1)_1

Situ Xin didn’t wait for her grandparents and their reply, or rather, she didn’t wait for them to come back to their senses before she flashed out of the Personal Space, leaving behind the five people and the Divine Beast White Tiger.

Baibai had no objection to being left behind; after all, with others present in the Personal Space, it was no longer so boring. Baibai was willing to stay, especially when there was an interesting spectacle to be seen.

Situ Jin examined every plant and tree in the Personal Space with awe, completely forgetting about his status and age, touching here and there, curious about everything. One moment he asked what this was, the next he pointed at something else inquiringly.

The two Old Madams were quite patient, enlightening Situ Jin on each of his queries. On the other hand, the two old gentlemen scoffed at Situ Jin’s actions.

Eventually, the old gentlemen couldn’t stand it anymore and spoke up to stop him, "Ahem, ahem, mind your image, how old are you to be making such a fuss, it’s unseemly."

"Exactly, it’s fine to look, but don’t act like someone who’s never been out in the world, it’s embarrassing for both our families."

The two old gentlemen completely forgot how they acted when they first entered the Personal Space under the guidance of Situ Xin. It seemed they weren’t much better than the current Situ Jin. This caused Baibai, who had been acting like a billboard all this time, to scornfully curl its lip at the two old men.

After leaving the Personal Space, Situ Xin went to the kitchen to prepare ingredients for dinner. She had been in the space for a while, but outside, only a few hours had passed, and it was already evening.

While Situ Xin was busy in the kitchen, a familiar voice came from the living room, "Grandpa Situ, Grandma Situ?"

"Muli?" Situ Xin said in surprise. After speaking, she thought to herself, how could it be Xiao Muli’s voice? He had called her this morning saying he was busy dealing with the Xiao Family’s matters and that it would take another two days before he could return. Could it be that she was so filled with longing that she was hallucinating?

Thinking this, Situ Xin shook her head and continued her work. However, before she could fully calm down, she heard talking from outside again, "Eh, why is the door open, yet there’s no one around? Where did everyone go?"

This time, Situ Xin no longer thought she was hallucinating. She put down what she was holding and turned to exit the kitchen right away.

"Muli?" Situ Xin called out as she left the kitchen, just as Xiao Muli turned and walked towards the door. Upon hearing Situ Xin’s voice, he stopped and turned around.

"Baby, you’re home." Xiao Muli said as he quickly took a few steps towards Situ Xin and then swept her into his arms. The audacity of his action could have been because he knew that none of the four seniors were present, or maybe it was just his overwhelming desire to see Situ Xin that led him to embrace her so intimately without thinking.

Perhaps it was both reasons. Regardless, Situ Xin also unusually allowed Xiao Muli to be affectionate with her in this so-called public space without resisting or struggling.

"Muli, why did you come back? Didn’t you say this morning that it’d take another two days to finish your work before you could return?" Situ Xin felt the strong arms wrapped around her waist but still didn’t forget to express the doubts in her heart.

"The work would indeed take another two days to finish. But this morning, when I heard your voice, I couldn’t hold back anymore. I really wanted to see you, to hold you in my arms, to smell your scent. So, I came back," Xiao Muli confessed, resting his head on Situ Xin’s shoulder and inhaling deeply, satisfied with her unique fragrance, "Baby, what perfume do you use, or is it scented shower gel? Give me some,"

"Why?" Situ Xin didn’t understand why Xiao Muli was suddenly asking about this.

"So I can carry it with me. If I miss you too much, I can take it out and smell it. Also, I’ve found your scent seems to relieve fatigue. Just now, I was completely exhausted, but after smelling your scent, I feel much more relaxed." What Xiao Muli didn’t mention was that he genuinely wished he could carry Situ Xin with him wherever he went.

"Oh, I don’t use perfume. The shower gel you use has the same fragrance as mine." Their household’s shampoo and shower gel were all made by Situ Xin; the Xiao Family received the same treatment. Ever since her relationship with Xiao Muli was established, he used the exact same products as Situ Xin, having the same fragrance as well.

"Oh, then it must be your natural body fragrance." Xiao Muli quickly came to this conclusion.

"Oh, Muli, that’s enough. You sit down for a bit; I’m going to prepare the ingredients for dinner. Later, you can call Grandpa Xiao to come eat dinner together," Situ Xin said as she felt Xiao Muli clinging to her like a koala, only then beginning to feel a bit embarrassed. She patted him on the back as she spoke.

"No. Baby, let me lean on you a bit longer. I haven’t had a good rest for two nights trying to finish the work so I could hurry back. Let me hold you a while longer, let me rest with you in my arms," Xiao Muli had long since figured out Situ Xin’s temperament - she was someone who could be coaxed but not forced.

And Xiao Muli didn’t hesitate to sacrifice his image outside to act pitiful in front of Situ Xin because he knew that’s what she would give in to. And sure enough, once Xiao Muli spoke, Situ Xin stopped trying to wrestle free from his embrace and, instead, relaxed herself to make it more comfortable for him to lean on her.

Seeing his plan succeed, Xiao Muli flashed a triumphant smile, sadly though, Situ Xin, with her back turned, couldn’t see it.

However, this was not for the sake of garnering Situ Xin’s sympathy by making up stories. Xiao Muli was telling the truth. Situ Xin was not easy to deceive; if anyone told her lies, she could detect them immediately. This was the advantage of having senses beyond what was normal for other people.
