Chapter 16 Sleeping with Mu Ningxue (Please read)

The winter in the imperial capital is very cold, especially at night when the temperature gets even lower.

Mu Ningxue was wearing a white down jacket, which made her already delicate face look even more beautiful and charming.

Her eyes were fixed on the young man in black who was walking towards her from not far away, and a faint smile appeared on her pretty face.

"It's so cold, didn't I tell you to wait for me at the apartment? Why did you come out to pick me up in person?"

Reaching out and holding Mu Ningxue's cold little hand, Qin Zhan whispered, "It's windy outside, let's go home quickly."

The two left together.

Men, women, old and young, passing by all looked sideways.

Mu Ningxue felt a little embarrassed being looked at and wanted to pull her hand back, but she found that Qin Zhan held it even tighter, so she had to give up.

"Where are we going?"

Mu Ningxue held his arm and asked softly.

"This is my first time in the capital, shouldn't you be the one making the arrangements?"

Qin Zhan turned his head and met her clear eyes with a faint smile on his lips.

Hearing this, Mu Ningxue showed a thoughtful look. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, I haven't been to the imperial capital much... How about we go shopping first?"

"Okay."

Qin Zhan nodded in agreement without objection.

So the two of them went to the city center hand in hand to buy some things before returning to their residence.

Although the imperial capital is one of the most prosperous cities in the north, its climate is not as comfortable as that of Bo City due to its northern geographical location.

Of course, apart from this point, the imperial capital is several times more prosperous than Bo City.

There are many high-end brand stores in the commercial district of the imperial capital, and anything you buy there is worth a lot of money.

There are also many delicious foods on the streets, with different kinds of cakes, snacks and fruits filling up the various stalls.

Mu Ningxue likes sweets, especially chocolate mousse cake.

"Which cake do you want?"

Qin Zhan stood in front of the counter of the cake shop and asked Mu Ningxue.

Mu Ningxue glanced at the dazzling array of exquisite cakes on the counter, pointed at one of the cream cakes and said, "I want to try this."

"it is good."

Qin Zhan pulled Mu Ningxue to sit down in the store, then motioned for the waiter to come over.

"Hello, one piece of cream cake, one piece of blueberry cake, and two glasses of cherry juice."

After Qin Zhan finished reporting the order, he looked up at Mu Ningxue and saw that she was supporting her cheek with her hand and seemed to be in a bad condition.

Mu Ningxue's training intensity has always been relatively high, and Qin Zhan is aware of this.

The reason he looks like this is probably because he practiced too much in the morning and hasn't recovered yet.

"Tired?"

Qin Zhan asked.

Mu Ningxue slowly opened her eyes and shook her head: "No."

Seeing this, Qin Zhan stood up, walked to the counter, and said, "Pack up everything you ordered just now."

"Ok."

The waiter nodded and packed up the cake and juice that were originally prepared to be taken up.

Taking the packed cake and juice from the waiter, Qin Zhan came to Mu Ningxue and said softly, "Let's go back."

"I am not sleepy."

Mu Ningxue looked up at him, her clear and penetrating eyes as tranquil as a deep pool.

"But I'm sleepy, you stay with me and rest."

Qin Zhan curled his lips slightly, with a hint of wickedness in his smile.

Mu Ningxue was stunned for a moment, then she looked down at her empty hands, then looked at the man in front of her, and suddenly understood his intention.

"Master Qin has spoken, so I can only obey."

Mu Ningxue chuckled and stood up, taking his arm. The two walked side by side, fingers interlocked, and walked slowly out of the cake shop.

After taking a taxi back to her residence, Mu Ningxue placed the cake and juice on the coffee table, took off her down jacket and hung it on the hanger on the wall.

"I'm going to sleep for a while, you are not allowed to come in."

Mu Ningxue gave him some instructions and went straight back to her room.

Qin Zhan was leaning on the sofa and couldn't help laughing when he heard her closing the door.

As a man, if a woman tells him not to come in, does that mean he really won’t come in?

After waiting for less than five minutes, Qin Zhan quietly pushed open Mu Ningxue's bedroom door. In the dim light, he saw the bulge in the bed and guessed that she had already lay down.

He walked over, lifted the quilt, crawled in, and hugged Mu Ningxue from behind.

The soft body touched his arms, and Qin Zhan couldn't help but sigh: "Axue, you smell so good."

Mu Ningxue turned over and looked up at him, a smile on her face: "Are you praising me for my beauty in disguise?"

"I'm just stating the facts."

Qin Zhan raised his lips slightly and kissed her ear.

"Stop bullying me, or get out of bed!"

Mu Ningxue grabbed his right hand and warned him sternly.

She was so serious that Qin Zhan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I won't bully you, be good - close your eyes and go to sleep."

Mu Ningxue blinked and asked hesitantly, "You really don't do bad things?"

Qin Zhan laughed dumbly and pinched her nose: "What do you think? Am I such an impatient person?"

Hearing this, Mu Ningxue heaved a sigh of relief and immediately closed her eyes.

After a while, Qin Zhan felt Mu Ningxue's steady and long breathing, and knew that she was asleep.

Looking closely at the girl in his arms, his gaze became more and more gentle, and he lowered his head to leave a kiss on Mu Ningxue's forehead.

Mu Ningxue was sleeping soundly and didn't notice his movements at all.

Qin Zhan tucked in the thin quilt for her, then got up and left the bedroom, cleaning up the living room and kitchen.

After finishing his work, he returned to the bedroom and saw Mu Ningxue still curled up in a ball.

Qin Zhan lay down beside her and held her in his arms.

He smelled Mu Ningxue's unique fragrance, and a warm current surged in his heart, making him reluctant to let her go.

As the night deepened, the house became silent.

Mu Ningxue slowly opened her eyes, looked at the familiar and handsome man beside her, and stretched out her slender arms to wrap around his thin waist.

Qin Zhan lowered his head slightly, met her eyes, and said softly, "Are you still tired now? Do you want to get up and have dinner? I'll cook."

"Well, let me help you."

Mu Ningxue nodded in agreement, then got up from the bed, dressed neatly, and followed Qin Zhan to the kitchen.

The ingredients in the refrigerator have been taken out and arranged in an orderly manner, which shows that Qin Zhan had booked today's menu in advance.

Qin Zhan put on his apron, turned around and waved to Mu Ningxue: "Come, help me."

"Okay."

Mu Ningxue agreed and rolled up her sleeves, revealing her jade-like white wrists.

Qin Zhan walked behind Mu Ningxue, put one arm around her waist and the other around her wrist, and delicately cut the steak on the chopping board.

The two of them worked well together and quickly made six simple home-cooked dishes.

A combination of meat and vegetables, the color is attractive.

"Let's eat."

Qin Zhan wiped his hands and was the first to pick up the chopsticks.

He picked up a chicken wing and placed it in Mu Ningxue's bowl.

"Well, you eat too."

Mu Ningxue smiled slightly, with a blush on her cheeks.
