Chapter 756: Chapter 738: Xiao Muli is the Introverted but Passionate Type (2)_1

Xiao Muli had intended to finish his work as quickly as possible and then come back to see Situ Xin. However, this morning, unable to hold back his longing, he picked up the phone and dialed Situ Xin’s number. As he listened to her sleepy and slightly coquettish voice on the other end, he couldn’t hold back any longer.

After ending the call, he quickly instructed his assistant and drove back.

As he inhaled the unique fragrance of Situ Xin, Xiao Muli’s breathing became more and more regular. Then, without realizing it, he closed his eyes.

Having gone without rest for two days, Xiao Muli leaned on Situ Xin’s shoulder and unconsciously fell asleep. As Situ Xin listened to the regular breaths of Xiao Muli on her shoulder, she tentatively whispered several times, "Muli. Muli."

Seeing that Xiao Muli didn’t respond, Situ Xin knew he was asleep. A warm smile and a hint of distress appeared on her face.

They remained in that position for half an hour. Fortunately, Situ Xin’s stamina was extraordinary; otherwise, as a petite girl, she wouldn’t have been able to support the weight of a tall boy like Xiao Muli for so long.

Seeing how soundly Xiao Muli was sleeping made Situ Xin feel distressed. She didn’t have the heart to wake him, but with the time approaching for her family to return from work, she hadn’t even started preparing the dinner ingredients. She had to wake Xiao Muli.

"Muli, Muli, wake up. Go back to sleep for a while," Situ Xin said softly, patting his back and leaning in close to his ear.

This time Xiao Muli was truly asleep—not a light sleep but deep sleep, which only happened when he was with Situ Xin. After being called by Situ Xin, he rubbed his eyes and still hadn’t come back to reality from his dreams.

And he looked irresistibly adorable with his sleepy eyes, making Situ Xin want to reach out and playfully pinch his face.

"Hmm? Baby? Did I fall asleep on you?" Xiao Muli hadn’t planned on sleeping; he had just wanted to enjoy the scent and warmth of Situ Xin a bit longer. But unexpectedly, he fell asleep in the middle of their cuddling.

"Yeah, you slept soundly. You were even snoring," Situ Xin teased him in good humor.

"Is that so? That only happens when I’m with you, Baby. I sleep so deeply that I snore. To thank you, how about a kiss?" Situ Xin had intended to embarrass Xiao Muli, but far from being ashamed, he used the moment to steal a quick kiss on her lips.

When Xiao Muli kissed Situ Xin’s lips, his plan was to peck lightly and withdraw. But Situ Xin’s taste was too enticing, and he couldn’t resist tracing the outline of her lips with his tongue before releasing her. Still playfully, he whispered in her ear, "Baby, next time, I won’t let you off so easily." But in the end, Xiao Muli was still a bit cautious.

After all, this was Situ Xin’s home, and her family could appear at any moment. He had just barely gained the acceptance of Grandpa Xiao and her maternal grandfather. If they saw him kissing Situ Xin just now, all his previous efforts would be in vain.

So, to win Situ Xin over sooner, he had to hold back.

Xiao Muli had already steeled himself mentally. All his current efforts and patience were to win his beauty as soon as possible. Only by making Situ Xin his wife would he be able to exercise his rights openly; otherwise, everything he did now had to be careful, like a thief.

Blushing at his words, Situ Xin lightly punched Xiao Muli’s chest, then with a quick move, slipped out of his embrace.

"You go back and rest for a while. After that, tell Grandpa Xiao to come to my place for dinner tonight. I’ll cook myself," said Situ Xin, as she made her escape to the kitchen. But how could Xiao Muli let her slip away that easily?
