Chapter 225 The Bully Miss's Forced Marriage, the Interstellar General Refuses to Divorce - 5
“I saw you were busy in the study, and I heard from Nai Gai that you were leaving in the middle of the night.”
I figured I was just killing time anyway, so I might as well help you tidy up. You can go to sleep soon; you need to make sure you get enough sleep since you have a lot of work to do.
I didn't mean to~
Li Xingyu squatted down, ignoring the embarrassed and aggrieved Mu Wanwan standing to the side.
Since they were going to get divorced anyway, he didn't care about her feigned kindness in helping with chores; he simply didn't want to owe her anything.
Mu Wanwan felt like she had nowhere to go in this place, but she was an unkillable cockroach, becoming stronger with each setback.
She turned around, picked up the neatly arranged undergarments from the bed, and knelt down. "You can put them away yourself."
Li Xingyu looked up and saw the underwear she was holding in her hands. His ears instantly burned with heat, even though he was usually serious and aloof.
Does this woman in front of me have no sense of shame at all, actually carrying a man's pants for him?
He quickly took the pants from her hand, put them in a bag, and stuffed them into his suitcase.
"Thank you!"
See? A person's heart is still made of flesh. Just a moment ago they were fierce, and now they're thanking you.
It seems that the man in front of me has already had a tiny crack pried open in his heart.
Nothing in this world is difficult if you put your mind to it; even the smallest crack can allow water to seep in little by little and fill his heart.
Mu Wanwan wanted to help him lift his suitcase, hoping to make a good impression and gain some favor.
Li Xingyu reacted quickly, forcefully slapping away her outstretched hand. "Ouch! That hurts!"
She immediately withdrew her hand and blew on the back of it. He clearly hadn't used much force. What trick was she playing now?
He looked closely and saw a large blister on the back of Mu Wanwan's hand. It seemed that his slap had broken the blister, and the fluid inside was slowly leaking out.
What does "bubble" mean?
Mu Wanwan immediately hid her hands behind her back, bit her lip, shook her head, and resolutely refused to say anything.
He raised his voice, "Mu Wanwan, I'm asking you a question, are you deaf?"
"When I was cooking fish, I accidentally got some oil on the back of my hand and it just burned me and gave me a small blister."
Feeling guilty, she spoke very softly and still refused to put her hands in front of her.
Small bubbles?
There's clearly a bubble about the size of a small egg; it's not small at all!
Is this woman lying through her teeth? Does she have absolutely no concept of size?
He dragged his suitcase and turned to leave. Mu Wanwan sat dejectedly on the bed and continued to blow on the broken blisters on the back of her hand, trying to get rid of the pain immediately.
It's said that women's minds are hard to fathom, but it seems that Li Xingyu's mind is even harder to fathom than a woman's.
He cooked for her and even burned the back of his hand, but why didn't he feel anything?
Little Milk Tea came in from outside, holding a box in her hand. "Master Wanwan, this is the burn ointment that the General gave you."
She happily got up and took the ointment from Xiao Naigai's hand, eagerly opening it.
Little Milk Cap voluntarily explained to her the preciousness of medicine.
"This ointment is the best burn ointment on the vast planet. It is very difficult to make. There are only 10 tubes available for the entire planet in a year. Only high-ranking officials are entitled to use it."
Mu Wanwan gripped the ointment tightly, her earlier gloom vanishing. Did his initiative in giving her the ointment mean that her image in his heart had improved slightly?
She rushed out without even bothering to apply the medicine, only to find the living room and study empty, and the guest room also deserted.
The roar of a spaceship starting up came from outside, and she rushed out anxiously.
She opened the door, and because she was in such a hurry to find Li Xingyu, she didn't watch her step and tripped over the threshold.
Li Xingyu was boarding the plane when he heard a noise and turned around. He saw Mu Wanwan lying on the ground, slowly getting up.
She was wearing a thigh-length nightgown, and her nude pink knees were stained red with blood from the fall.
He took a deep breath and muttered to himself, "Women are such a hassle!"
He turned back to the people inside and said, "Wait a minute!"
She knew he hated her, but she had already repented for what she had done and told him she would divorce him.
Is it really that hard to just say thank you to him?
"Master, Li Xingyu has arrived!"
Mu Wanwan, who was shedding tears, heard Zhu Zhu's reminder and looked up to see a pair of black leather shoes standing in front of her.
Looking up, she saw Li Xingyu's cold and stern face. She quickly lowered her head, not wanting him to see her vulnerability and dishevelment. The medicine box in her right hand was deformed from her grip.
"Why did you run out?"
His merciless voice came from above, and then he picked her up and carried her straight back into the house.
Before Mu Wanwan could react, he swayed her in his arms and she quickly reached out to hug his neck.
Li Xingyu gently placed her on the sofa and knelt down on one knee to check her knees.
His Adam's apple bobbed as he tried to ignore the bruises on her thighs from the previous night, not wanting to recall them, but his thoughts were out of his control.
Last night, she begged for forgiveness with tears streaming down her face, calling him Li Xingyu and apologizing repeatedly. He could have chosen to maintain a marital relationship with her without getting involved physically, but at the time, he just didn't want her to have a good time.
Right now, all he can think about is her soft moans beneath him last night, and even her crying and begging for mercy and apologies at the end couldn't bring him back to his senses.
It restrained her from her unrestrained plundering and taking possession of others.
"Xingyu, don't be angry. I just wanted to thank you for bringing me the ointment, but I was in such a hurry that I fell!"
"Ding, favorability increased by 10, current favorability is -30."
Li Xingyu then noticed that she was tightly clutching the ointment, which had been crushed and deformed. "Who wants your thanks? If you hadn't been cooking for me, you wouldn't have been burned by the oil. Giving you ointment is only right. We're even now."
The increase in favorability confirms that Li Xingyu is saying one thing but meaning another.
Mu Wanwan immediately displayed her award-winning acting skills, "Xingyu, I only want to atone for my sins, and I never thought of any reward."
Li Xingyu's heart softened for a moment, but he still said one thing and meant another, "Don't think that just because you did something so small, you can erase the harm you've done to me. It's impossible."
Mu Wanwan nodded obediently, "I know."
Know? Know my ass!
Why can't you just continue being a pampered rich girl? Keep doing evil!
Things like cleaning fish and cooking can be arranged for servants to do; why insist on doing them yourself?
The food tasted good, but he injured himself. Wouldn't that just make him feel guilty?
He held iodine and cotton swabs in his hand. "If you don't want your knees to be ruined, just bear with it."
Her eyes were filled with tears, she bit her lip, and turned her face away, unable to look.
Mu Wanwan was the first person, besides Li Xingyu's comrades-in-arms, to be personally served by Li Xingyu.
He blew on her knees and used iodine to gently wipe away the dust and bloodstains.
She was quite strong; aside from her body trembling slightly from the pain, she didn't cry out.
He remembered that last night, she kept crying out in pain whenever he exerted even a little force, so why wasn't she crying out in pain now?
After treating the injury on his knee, he got up and sat down beside her. Mu Wanwan's heart tightened, and her heart pounded wildly.
Her cheeks flushed instantly, and she shrank back nervously.
