Mr. Potbelly felt this person had a dry personality for not wanting to hear the secrets from one who had gone before him, so he pursed his lips. “Please don’t be so arrogant, young man. If you keep doing this, one day you will suffer. Since you are not interested in hearing it, I am not going to say it.”
Mr. Potbelly walked enthusiastically to catch up to his wife. Looking at him from behind, Ye Muxuan tried to catch up without any emotions.
“Let me tell you, you can’t really put up with men too much. Otherwise you will lose your place in the family. Listen to me, you have to play cat and mouse with them. Sometimes you have to treat them nicely, and sometimes not. This is how you make them feel that you are important. Also, for situations like what happened earlier, you have to decide for it yourself. If he does not want to follow along, you should just ignore him until he decides to come along.”
Han Muzi was feeling a little embarrassed. She did not feel she needed any tricks to keep her husband in control because to her, Ye Muxuan was not even her husband. What use was there even if she learned all the tricks?
Mr. Potbelly’s wife was really enthusiastic. If Han Muzi were to tell her at this point that Ye Muxuan was not her husband, she was afraid she would be throwing her off.
Forget it. Let’s take it as having a new friend around.
“Thank you. I understand.”
“By the way, he is quite handsome. He is tall enough too. But look at him, he looks cold. May I ask if he is also like that when in bed?”
This question caught Han Muzi off guard. She looked at Mr. Potbelly’s wife unbelievably. How could she ask such a question?
“My apology. I know this is something personal to the both of you. I am just a little curious, seeing how good-looking he is.”
This question reminded Han Muzi of something that had happened in the past.
When in bed, was he also this emotionless? The answer was definitely no. Ye Muxuan’s side in bed was totally opposite of who he was in the real world.
When Ye Muxuan had clothes on, he was calm, composed, cold, and relentless, but when he had no clothes on, he was fervent, greedy, and extremely dominant.
Especially that last moment, there was only one word that could describe his expression in his eyes and face
That word was ‘lust’.
That was why every time Han Muzi would not dare to look at his face. It felt like at that particular moment he just wanted to press himself into her body.
“Is his stamina excellent?” Mr. Potbelly’s wife unexpectedly asked again. Muzi was taken aback before she returned to her senses.
“What, what did you say”?
The smile on Mr. Potbelly’s wife’s face turned a little dirty. “Are you really not going to say anything about it? Do you want me to tell you a little something about the man in my house?”
Just as she was about to continue talking, Han Muzi felt completely embarrassed. She couldn’t take it anymore, so she quickly ran away.
“Hey, I am not finished. Why are you running away?”
Seeing that she had run away, Ye Moxuan quickly started to run with his long legs to catch up. When there was a distance between herself and Mr. Potbelly’s wife, Han Muzi stopped running, but hat was when Ye Moxuan caught up, who in turn grabbed her by her arm.
“What’s going on?”
An emotionless voice came to her. Han Muzi lifted her head and realized Ye Muxuan had already caught up to her. The moment she saw his unemotional face, Han Muzi was reminded of what she was being asked earlier, and started to blush.
He did not hear what Mr. Potbelly’s wife told her, did he?
Han Muzi shook her head. “Nothing, really.”
Ye Muxuan skeptically squinted. His glance fell on her blushed face, then went to her earlobes that had completely gone red.
They looked fair before, and why were they red now?
“What did she say to you?” Ye Muxuan blurted the question.
Han Muzi’s face blushed even more. All she did was keep shaking her head. “Nothing. Why are you grabbing my arm? Let go…”
Mr. Potbelly and his wife came just in time. Mr. Potbelly’s wife saw the situation and started to giggle. “You two are holding hands again! We are here at the store, so Young Lady, let’s keep talking.”
Right when Mr. Potbelly’s wife finished her sentence, she walked up and grabbed Han Muzi’s arm from Ye Muxuan’s hand and escorted her away.
Ye Muxuan stared at them from behind as he started to wonder.
What were the two talking about earlier?
Mr. Potbelly happily followed them from behind while Ye Muxuan only kept quiet and followed along.
Mr. Potbelly’s wife and Han Muzi talked a lot, and they eventually exchanged social media details with each other. Mr. Potbelly’s wife was surprised when she found out that Han Muzi was a designer and even revealed that she knew a number of fashion designers herself. If she had the chance, she would introduce them to her.
Since they were neighbors, Han Muzi had to face this situation with a smile on her face.
Having said that, Han Muzi learnt a lot just by being with her, such as picking the right vegetables and the right type of meat. She taught her almost about every detail.
Just as this group of people was headed toward the household essential aisle, they bumped into someone after they made the turn.
Black-haired, donning a pair of golden-framed glasses and white dress shirt with a delightful smile.
Han Muzi was in shock for a moment when she saw Ye Linhan. Never did she think she would bump into him here.
But she also thought maybe Ye Linhan did that on purpose since he said before… that he would be waiting for her here.
Would that possibly be today?
“What a coincidence.” Looking at her startled face, Ye Linhan smiled and said hi to her.
With the appearance of this gorgeous looking man, who also looked extremely refined, Mr. Potbelly’s wife, who was standing right to Han Muzi, looked at the both of them and whispered in Han Muzi’s ears, “Old lover?”
This almost caused Han Muzi to choke, and she just helplessly closed her eyes before turning to Mr. Potbelly’s wife.
Mr. Potbelly was such a down-to-earth person, but how would his wife be so eccentric? Also, she was such a loud person especially when she asked if he was her old lover. Why couldn’t she have lowered her voice?
Han Muzi felt really embarrassed. “No.”
After that, she thought of something and quickly turned around.
She discovered that no one was behind, not even Ye Muxuan.
Where did he go?
“He has been taken away by my husband. Maybe they are at another aisle,” Mr. Potbelly’s wife explained. “Did you only notice now? You do not seem to be too concerned about your husband.”
Han Muzi didn’t know what to reply to her.
Forget it, it was because she was too focused on listening to Mr. Potbelly’s wife and had gradually forgotten about the fact that Ye Muxuan was still following her from behind.
Who would have thought after making a turn, she would bump into Ye Linhan. The reason she turned around earlier was just to see what Ye Muxuan’s reaction was.
After all, these two brothers did not get along with each other. If they did bump into each other, there would surely be some friction.
When she thought about this, there was still a lingering fear within her. Fortunately, Ye Muxuan was not here.
“Getting something at the store?” Ye Linhan asked another question the moment when Han Muzi became quiet.
Han Muzi had not even responded when Mr. Potbelly’s wife, who was standing next to her, started nodding her head.
“Of course. You too?”
