Chapter 776: Chapter 754: Already Speaking Honestly (1)_1

Although Xiao Muli still wanted to tease Situ Xin and see her adorable hopping mad, he knew he had to take it easy. If he really pissed her off, in the end, he’d be the one who suffered. He would be the one who had to try everything to appease her.

So, after Situ Xin’s stomach growled, he quickly scooped her up onto the bed and said, "I’ll go get someone to bring up meals right now." Then he went over to the hotel phone to make a call.

Situ Xin was terribly embarrassed by the sound her stomach had just made. Other than when she was a child in the orphanage, where she had experienced hunger, she hadn’t endured it since. And now, in this life, to have this happen after all she’d been through, how could Situ Xin not feel embarrassed?

As Xiao Muli was making his call, Situ Xin looked down at her stomach, hung her head, and let out a sigh. She was annoyed with herself, feeling that it was truly embarrassing.

However, Situ Xin then lifted her head, consoling herself with the thought that if she was hungry enough for her stomach to growl, it was because of Xiao Muli. Why should she feel embarrassed?

So, when Xiao Muli finished his calls to the hotel restaurant and then to his assistant to get clothes ready, he turned to approach Situ Xin, only to find her glaring at him with big eyes, a look of accusation on her face that left him completely puzzled.

"Baby, did I do something to make you mad?" Xiao Muli sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Situ Xin, and asked.

"Hmph." Situ Xin decided to temporarily ignore the man who had cost her the most important ’first time’ of a woman and had made her stomach growl. So she let out a little snort, turned her head to the side, and refused to look at Xiao Muli.

"What’s wrong, baby? If I’ve done something to upset you, just tell me, and I’ll apologize." Xiao Muli said while gently turning Situ Xin’s head so that her eyes met his.

"Everything about you makes me mad. Anyway, I’m very angry right now. I don’t want to see you at the moment," Situ Xin pushed away Xiao Muli’s hand from her neck, said angrily. After speaking, she remembered her hunger, "When will the food arrive?"

"It will be here very soon." Xiao Muli’s heart initially sank hearing Situ Xin say she didn’t want to see him, but when she mentioned the meal later on, his worries subsided, knowing the girl was just throwing a tantrum, you might even say she was embarrassed and angry. "However, baby, the food is from the hotel, and you may not be used to it, but you should eat a little to fill your stomach. Once my assistant brings the clothes, we’ll go to the Xiao Family Old Mansion. I’ve ordered Uncle Zhong to have the kitchen prepare a meal for you."

Just as Xiao Muli finished speaking, a knock came from the door. He rubbed Situ Xin’s disheveled hair and stood up to open it.

Xiao Muli didn’t let the person delivering the meal come in. He pushed the hotel’s meal cart in himself, and in his hand, he held a bag emblazoned with the logo of "Xin" Clothing Company. Situ Xin immediately understood that it was clothes prepared for her, so she unceremoniously took the bag when Xiao Muli approached.

"Baby, eat something to tide you over first, and then you can change. These clothes are from your exclusive store. Make do with them for now," after saying that, Xiao Muli pushed the meal cart in front of Situ Xin. "Baby, what do you want to eat? I’ll get it for you."

Xiao Muli placed a small table in front of Situ Xin, then he set down the dishes she had specified she wanted to eat before her. In his heart, Xiao Muli wished he could personally feed Situ Xin.

But he knew that Situ Xin would definitely not like that.

The hotel’s food really didn’t suit Situ Xin’s taste at all. When Situ Xin took her first bite, she frowned. However, she still swallowed the food.

Xiao Muli observed every expression on Situ Xin’s face. He knew about her particular tastes when it came to food, and he genuinely thought that the food here was not good.

Even though it wasn’t tasty, Situ Xin still ate about half a bowl to fill her stomach. When she felt that she was no longer hungry, she stopped eating.

During the meal, Situ Xin suddenly remembered that she had forgotten something quite important.

After Situ Xin finished eating and passed the bowl and chopsticks to Xiao Muli, putting them away, she called out to him, "Muli, come here and sit down next to me."

Xiao Muli obediently sat down where Situ Xin had indicated, filled with curiosity, not knowing why Situ Xin had suddenly asked him to sit.

Situ Xin didn’t have the free time to explain to Xiao Muli. She still had to go back home. She also wondered how her grandparents and maternal grandparents would react after seeing the note she left for them. While extending her hand to place it on Xiao Muli’s wrist, Situ Xin thought about how her family’s elders would react to last night’s events.

Situ Xin guessed that her grandmothers might directly urge her to register for marriage with Xiao Muli, while her grandfathers would probably be furious enough to consider breaking Xiao Muli’s legs.

Thinking it over, Situ Xin decided that for the time being, it was better not to tell her family. If she did, she and Xiao Muli would definitely face a tempest.

Situ Xin sighed, collected her thoughts, and focused on taking Xiao Muli’s pulse. She was checking his pulse because she was concerned that the medicine from the night before might have left some residue that could harm Xiao Muli’s health.

However, the moment Situ Xin channeled a strand of her Spiritual Energy into Xiao Muli’s body and sensed the anomaly within him, she was dumbfounded.

"What’s going on? Why does Xiao Muli’s body have such abundant Spiritual Energy?" It wasn’t surprising to Situ Xin that there was a bit of Spiritual Energy in Xiao Muli’s body; in fact, it seemed normal, since he often consumed products from her space. But the Spiritual Energy in Xiao Muli’s body was not a small amount; it was more abundant than the Energy present in the bodies of her family members who had reached the First Layer of Qi Cultivation.
