Muchuan And Xiang Wan

When Xiang Wan finished writing the chapter and replied to some comments of her readers, she greeted her readers in the chat group, then surfed for information. When she checked the time, it was already quite late at night at 11:30 p.m.

She stretched herself when she suddenly remembered something… Bai Muchuan was inside the same room as her.

While she was busy writing her chapter, he seemed to have not made any sound and did not disturb her, either. That seemed too nice of him?

Xiang Wan used to hear complaints from her author friends that their boyfriends or spouses did not understand the intricacies of the industry and would always talk to them every few minutes. That behavior was annoying as it would affect the train of thought and they would often end up quarreling…

Unexpectedly, this guy seemed to understand that?

Xiang Wan turned to face him with a grin.

At that moment, he was lying lazily on Xiang Wan"s bed. He seemed to be looking at his phone.

This fellow had his own room, which was a suite! Was that just for show?

Xiang Wan noticed he seemed very focused as he looked at his phone. She got up from her chair and walked over gingerly to him where she suddenly yelled "Boo" to scare him.

However, it didn"t work.

Bai Muchuan looked up at her with a poker face. "You"re done?"

Xiang Wan put down her hands and felt a little awkward. "Yeah."

Bai Muchuan motioned with his eyes. "Why are you still standing here? Go wash up."

Uh! Xiang Wan squinted her eyes, revealing a sneaky laugh. "Your Excellency, it"s already late at night. I don"t think it"s a good idea for us to stay in a room together?"

Bai Muchuan nodded his head. "Indeed, not a good idea." A second later, he added, "But for the sake of your safety, this Lord shall sacrifice some alone time."

"…"

Hmph! Xiang Wan snorted and scrunched her nose at him.

Bai Muchuan faced her directly, his eyes filled with laughter.

After looking at each other for a few seconds, Xiang Wan stuck out her tongue at him and turned to get her pajamas before entering the bathroom.

…

Xiang Wan finished bathing. As she looked at her own reflection in the mirror, she felt like laughing.

What did she do earlier? She actually stuck out her tongue at Bai Muchuan?

Xiang Wan searched her memory and realized that even before her mom, she seldom showed such childish behaviors.

She was always a level-headed and sensible good girl.

Her family"s situation simply did not allow her to have the courage nor luxury to behave like a little girl and cuddle up to her mom.

However, Bai Muchuan could make her do that unknowingly!

As their relations.h.i.+p progressed, such behaviors were on the rise…

Women indeed wanted their men to dote on them.

Xiang Wan was grinning from ear to ear as she thought about all these. She put on a facial mask and shuffled out of the bathroom with her slippers.

Bai Muchuan had changed into a more bewitching pose as he leaned against the bed with the blanket covering up till his waist. He was like a magnet that could catch people"s attention. Xiang Wan could not move her eyes away from him.

Xiang Wan took a glance and looked away. She took another glance almost immediately and looked away again.

Finally, as she had her facial mask on, it could act as a cover and she decided to just admire the "enchanting scenery" of a das.h.i.+ng man sleeping on the bed.

"Hey, you"re really not going back to your room?" The facial mask made her voice sound m.u.f.fled.

"Should I help you blow dry your hair?" Bai Muchuan acted as though he had not heard what she had said and asked her a question instead.

Xiang Wan was slightly surprised.

"Umm! Alright."

She sat on the dressing stool with her back facing him.

Bai Muchuan took a towel to dry her hair. After that, he switched on the hotel"s hair dryer.

With the loud sounds of the hair dryer, Xiang Wan remained silent while Bai Muchuan worked on her hair.

This was actually a good time to think about things.

When her hair was almost dry, she had already given a thought about their impending trip to Nanmu.

She turned to look at Bai Muchuan with a slight frown on her face. "Bai Muchuan."

"Mm."

"Only the seven of us are going there?"

"Yeah." Bai Muchuan raised an eyebrow. "What about it?"

Her eyes darkened slightly and she asked him the question she was concerned about.

"Earlier on after I uploaded my chapter, I searched for information on Nanmu. That"s quite a chaotic place as the security there was quite bad. The internet says it"s too easy for criminals to throw corpses into the mountains that even the bones were hard to find. The local police there is helpless against the situation… Moreover, there"s also the Dark Clan. If we just go there barehanded, is that considered an egg going against a rock?"

Bai Muchuan raised both eyebrows. "Who said we"re barehanded?"

"… Is it not?"

"There"s six of us—six iron men."

"…"

"Come, try touching this."

"Mm?" Touch what?

Xiang Wan looked at her hand held by Bai Muchuan, a little confused by his behavior.

He suddenly gave a smile that seemed a little ambiguous. "Close your eyes."

"What are you up to?" Xiang Wan was baffled, but she still did what she was told and slowly closed her eyes.

Bai Muchuan took her hand and slowly led her toward his waist.

Xiang Wan thought the back of her hand touched something really hard.

That shocked her. As though she got scalded, she withdrew her hand the moment she came in contact with that thing.

"Bai Muchuan." Xiang Wan gritted her teeth, her face now fused with a crimson red hue. "I"m talking to you seriously and what are you doing?"

"… What did I do?" Bai Muchuan looked at her behavior: she was fuming but dared not open her eyes as she was shy. He was trying to contain his laughter, but at the same time, he felt he was melted by her crisp and lovely voice all over.

"Xiang Wan," he said teasingly, "what did you touch earlier?"

"How would I know—" Xiang Wan wanted to pull her hand back from his big palm, but he did not allow as he pulled her back.

Xiang Wan was so nervous her heart raced so fast and so loud her breathing was no longer smooth and her brain unable to think.

"Bai Muchuan! Do it one more time, and I"ll turn you into a eunuch—"

Xiang Wan growled in a low tone and opened her eyes, only to see Bai Muchuan"s teasing face with a mischievous glint.

Eh!? So it"s not…?

Xiang Wan looked at where her hand was touching.

It"s just his waist, only his waist…

Why was it so hard? What was it that"s so hard?

She opened her mouth slightly, unable to make a sound.

Bai Muchuan could no longer hold his laughter. He let out a cackle and patted her head.

"Why are you so adorable?"

While he was laughing, Xiang Wan saw him lifting his s.h.i.+rt to reveal a gun holster, as well as the pistol.

"…"

She was too nervous and too ashamed of herself.

If she had not been a scaredy cat to withdraw right at the moment she felt it, she would have known what it was the next second.

"You"re crazy? Can"t you just tell it to me directly? Why do you have to go to all that trouble for?"

Xiang Wan quickly defended herself to protect her pride as she gave him an unhappy glare.

Then she glanced at the pistol and asked dubiously, "You"re depending on this?"

What can a pistol and a few bullets do?

"What if they have machine guns and even bazookas?"

"…"

This time, Bai Muchuan was speechless.

"You"ve watched too many detective films."

"…" Xiang Wan raised her eyebrows in doubt. "You mean they won"t have such stuff?"

"Well… that"s hard to say." Bai Muchuan had a serious expression. "So Xiang Wan, for the sake of your safety, I hope you"ll—"

"Stop!" Xiang Wan was annoyed. "I"ve already written about this in my novel. Detective Fang Yelan has already given in and will be bringing Rong Xiaonuan along. Why are you still unwilling? Don"t tell me the great Detective Bai is not a match against Detective Fang?"

"What?" Bai Muchuan knocked on her head with a smile. "Fine, I can"t out-talk you on this."

"Be good!" Xiang Wan patted his head as though she was granting him a reward. "Still, our safety is important and we have to be prepared…"

Looking at her expression as though she was about to face a great enemy, Bai Muchuan let out a peal of laughter. "We are prepared for the risks and danger the trip would bring. What"s more, the local police will be supporting us."

Xiang Wan felt that the tension was somewhat relieved.

"Well, I still have a question. By bringing all these firearms, how did all of you get past the security at the airport?"

Bai Muchuan chuckled. "Silly girl, we got them from the Xi City police."

"I see."

Gun control was extremely strict, but detectives were allowed to equip guns when they were out for investigations.

For detectives of organizations like Serious Crime Division One, of course, they would be allowed to carry guns with them.

Xiang Wan nodded her head and did not talk about it anymore. She went to the bathroom to wash off her facial mask.

When she stepped out of the bathroom again, she realized Bai Muchuan was lying on her bed once more. That relaxed look of his was as though he was going to fall asleep anytime.

He"s really going to sleep here? she thought.

The two of them, together?

Xiang Wan"s heart started to race again.

She gulped and got on the bed from the other side where she wrapped the quilt around her tightly.

"Tsk, it"s a little cold."

"Cold?" Bai Muchuan turned to look at her. "The heater is on…"

"Is it? Oh, maybe my const.i.tution is weaker as I"m afraid of cold."

"It"s not about weaker const.i.tution, it"s simply because you"re afraid—" Bai Muchuan had wanted to tease her originally, but after seeing how tensed up and worried she was, he could not help laughing. "Worry not, I"m not hungry for that!"

Xiang Wan felt a little embarra.s.sed that Bai Muchuan saw through her little acts. "Hehe, I don"t dare to misunderstand you. After all, we are enjoying a pure chit chatting relations.h.i.+p under the quilt."

"…" Who wants to only chit chat with her under the quilt?

Bai Muchuan regretted so much that he wanted to give himself a tight slap.

Want to be n.o.ble and pure? That comes with a price! He chided himself in his head.

Xiang Wan noticed that his gaze felt like hooks and hurried to grab her mobile phone.

"I want to do some reading. You can go ahead to do what you want!"

It takes a lot of courage to share a bed!

She was not sure what she was worried about. Maybe the first time was always a dilemma…

Xiang Wan browsed through her phone. Initially, her attention was not on her phone at all.

However, in no time, she gave a surprised yell. "There"s another update!"

Second Young Master Mu really did not break his promise.

Just when she was writing her chapter, Second Young Master had updated another chapter too.

There were slightly more than 2,000 words about an advancement in the plot. Fans were so excited that they were screaming wildly about in the reviews and comments page and sending gifts to him.

"Oh my G.o.d! My idol is really an amazing person!"

Xiang Wan"s curiosity toward Second Young Master Mu went deeper as time went by.

Nevertheless, Second Young Master Mu had done such a good job in keeping his ident.i.ty hidden that n.o.body knew who he was—

Xiang Wan"s attention instantly s.h.i.+fted from Bai Muchuan to Second Young Master Mu, and she began to read the new chapter carefully.

However, that chapter of around 2,000 words was too little for her. She felt she just started reading but finished it in no time.

"It"s really short but pithy!"

As she read until the end of the chapter, Xiang Wan could not help feeling sad about it—

"Aye! What should I do? I wish I can get inside Second Young Master Mu"s brain and see how the story will progress!"

She was murmuring to herself.

The next moment, Bai Muchuan pulled her over with the quilt to him.

"What are you doing?" Xiang Wan was now lying on top of him, feeling amused by his behavior.

"Xiang Wan, you ignored your man because of your idol, do you think this is really suitable?"

"… Not suitable." She couldn"t get down, so she had no choice but to agree with him.

Hur! Bai Muchuan laughed.

His hand followed along the lines down to her waist slowly. "So you do know you"re in the wrong?"

The ticklish and numb sensation coming from her waist seemed to be electric currents that came from his fingers.

Xiang Wan stammered while resisting the urge to laugh due to the ticklish sensation. "Yes… I"m wrong… Ah… tickles… Yes, yes, yes, I shouldn"t have… Haha… Let me go."

She felt uncomfortable and wanted to laugh. In no time, Xiang Wan"s face went red as she was trying to hold her laughter.

Bai Muchuan raised an eyebrow as he grunted a laugh.

"So how should you compensate me?"

Xiang Wan saw a glint in his eyes, and she turned to show a side of her face. "I"ll let you kiss me on the cheek?"

"… That"s the equivalent of taking advantage of you?"

"How "bout I give you a kiss?"

"If so, I seem to be at a disadvantage."

What the! Xiang Wan bit him at the shoulder, displeased.

"Then I"ll bite you to death…"

"Hahaha!"

Bai Muchuan did not feel pain at all. Only a ticklish sensation permeated in his heart…

After she bit him a few more times, he couldn"t take it anymore. He held her waist and did a turn—their positions were now swapped.

"Little Xiang Wan, you dare to bite me? You"re finished!"

His breathing became heavier as he kissed her pa.s.sionately. It was a long, loving kiss that all of her earlier displeasure was thrown out of the head.

"Bai… Mu… Chuan!" She grasped his s.h.i.+rt around his shoulders, her eyebrows were knitted closely and she called his name, but she did not know what to say.

Her mouth started to feel dry.

She was utterly confused and disconcerted.

She started to lose her consciousness gradually.

Slowly, she melted in the wave of intense kisses, feeling that she would lose something the next second. She was nervous and unsettled but unable to resist.

She closed her eyes slowly as she waited for that moment to arrive…

However, Bai Muchuan stopped.

His pair of eyes seemed dangerous as though there was a red glint and his breathing was heavy.

"Xiang Wan… open your eyes!"

Xiang Wan looked at him piteously, her eyes were watery.

"You… don"t want?"

"Not now."

He said with a stern expression to her yet, at the same time, it was as if he was commanding himself instead.

The next moment, Xiang Wan saw him bounce off her body like he had seen a ghost and dashed to the bathroom at top speed.

"You sleep first!"

"…"

What the! Did he just turn tail and run?

Xiang Wan pursed her lips to a straight line. She did not know whether to laugh or to cry.

"He"s so… honest!?"

…

The early morning of Xi City was shrouded in a white fog.

The seven of them would be driving to Nanmu. As the journey would be a long one, they had to wake up very early in the morning.

Xiang Wan and Bai Muchuan just got out of the elevator when a man blocked their path.

"Hi, Beautiful…"

That man was leaning lazily against the marble wall, a large pair of shades could not hide his suave youthful face. His hairstyle and clothes were extremely fas.h.i.+onable. At one glance, he could easily be mistaken as a celebrity. However, the item that attracted Xiang Wan"s attention was his left ear where there was a diamond ear stud. It made him look distinctive from others.

"Captain Quan, your clothes…"

Xiang Wan eyeballed him from top to bottom while Quan Shaoteng made a suave pose.

"Have you eaten breakfast? Do you want to go on a… date?"

"I"ll kick you to death!" A leg came aiming at him, along with Bai Muchuan"s low growl.

"Hah!" Quan Shaoteng saw him pulling his luggage along and was not afraid at all. "Come at me then! You little thing, let"s have a spar…"

The moment he got into position, Bai Muchuan stopped his "attack". He took Xiang Wan"s hand, the other hand still pulling the luggage and walked past Quan Shaoteng with his head held high and made a remark.

"Moron!"

…
