Chapter 373 They're jealous of us
"I'm not heartless! I even squeezed in some time to do this New Year's shopping list, and you just talked about it but didn't do anything!"
Mu Xiaoyu was dissatisfied with Li Chenxu's statement and immediately retorted. After speaking, she seemed to be angry and bit Li Chenxu on the back of the neck.
The childlike actions left Li Chenxu both amused and exasperated.
He patted Mu Xiaoyu's bottom, deliberately put on a stern face, and said seriously, "Be good, I'm carrying you on my back now. What if you move around and fall down?"
They were on the main street inside the residential area. Although there weren't many people in the area, it was peak time for traffic, and there were quite a few people around.
The fact that such a prominent figure as Li Chenxu was carrying Mu Xiaoyu on his back was already eye-catching enough. Now, the way Li Chenxu treated Mu Xiaoyu immediately attracted even more attention.
Mu Xiaoyu immediately felt a little embarrassed.
She buried her head in Li Chenxu's neck and said in a muffled voice, "There are so many people outside, be careful!"
Li Chenxu still looked innocent. Mu Xiaoyu couldn't see his face, but she could hear a hint of grievance in his voice: "Xiaoyu, I've been very careful. Besides, I'm your husband. I just patted your bottom. It's a normal thing. Those people who are watching us are just jealous of us."
"Jealousy? What could they possibly be jealous of about us?"
Mu Xiaoyu didn't believe what Li Chenxu said, but she still wanted to know what Li Chenxu meant by jealousy.
"What else could they be jealous of? It's just that they're jealous of how good-looking we are and how good our relationship is."
Li Chenxu's words sounded perfectly reasonable, but Mu Xiaoyu was speechless. She had always known that Li Chenxu was a narcissistic person, but she never expected him to be this narcissistic.
Even if they are good-looking, even if they have a good relationship, no one would say such a thing out loud!
Li Chenxu is so shameless!
As Mu Xiaoyu thought about it, she couldn't help but laugh.
When she laughed, her warm breath would unconsciously spray onto the back of Li Chenxu's neck. Li Chenxu's body, which was originally quite relaxed, suddenly tensed up when he felt Mu Xiaoyu's breathing.
The hand that had been supporting Mu Xiaoyu's bottom tightened unconsciously at this moment.
Mu Xiaoyu felt Li Chenxu's movements, and a faint blush immediately appeared on her fair face.
"What are you doing! This is the street, watch your movements."
"I also want to tone it down a bit, but Xiaoyu, how can I be expected to tone it down after what you just did?"
What did I just do?
Mu Xiaoyu was a little annoyed. She didn't remember doing anything. Li Chenxu was clearly using what he had just done as an excuse.
"You just buried your head in my neck and blew on it, didn't you do anything?"
As he spoke, Li Chenxu sighed softly, his voice filled with helplessness yet deep meaning, and said, "Xiaoyu, you have to admit what you've done. You've disappointed me... a lot."
As Li Chenxu spoke, Mu Xiaoyu suddenly remembered that she had indeed done that before. However, she hadn't done it on purpose. Besides, it had happened in public; could Li Chenxu really resist temptation so easily?
Mu Xiaoyu couldn't believe it. She jumped off Li Chenxu's body and ran to Mu Xiaoyu.
Her sudden movement made Li Chenxu stop immediately, raising an eyebrow at her: "What's wrong?"
"I want to see you, Brother Shenxu. Your self-control is really too weak!"
Upon hearing this, Li Chenxu immediately reached out and pulled Mu Xiaoyu into his arms. He lowered his head and kissed her lips a few times before saying with satisfaction, "Don't forget your place in my heart. If it were any other woman, even if she stood naked in front of me, I wouldn't give her a second glance. But if it's you, I simply can't control myself, you know? So in the future, you'd better be a little more reserved when we're out."
Li Chenxu's voice was very good at sweet talk. He would use his deep and sexy voice to talk about Mu Xiaoyu's influence on him and Mu Xiaoyu's charm. No woman could resist Mu Xiaoyu, let alone Mu Xiaoyu.
At this moment, Mu Xiaoyu blushed and felt her heart pounding after hearing Li Chenxu's words, but she couldn't show it directly, so she quickly pushed Li Chenxu away and muttered, "I know, I know, I won't do it again."
Li Chenxu knew perfectly well that she was just shy. However, he didn't say it outright. Instead, he smiled and pulled Mu Xiaoyu's hand as they continued towards the supermarket.
They went during one of the peak times when the supermarket was busiest, and with the Lunar New Year approaching, the supermarket would close in a day, so there were many more people than usual in the last two days.
Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu had just pushed the cart in when they were almost squeezed out.
If Li Chenxu hadn't been holding Mu Xiaoyu's hand tightly, the two would probably have already separated by now.
At this moment, Mu Xiaoyu was holding Li Chenxu's arm tightly, looking at the crowded supermarket, and was so surprised that her eyes almost popped out: "This is too exaggerated. I've been to supermarkets before, but I've never seen a supermarket with so many people. With this, will there be anything left for us to buy?"
Mu Xiaoyu rarely comes to the supermarket, but it's not like she's never been. Every time she comes, the supermarket is deserted, as if there's hardly anyone there. Although their neighborhood is large, she rarely sees anyone, so she always thought there weren't many people in the neighborhood.
But seeing this scene before her, she realized just how foolish and naive she had been before.
Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's dumbfounded expression, Li Chenxu couldn't help but laugh. The next second, he picked Mu Xiaoyu up and put her in the stroller.
The shopping carts in the supermarket have seats for children. Mu Xiaoyu is tall but thin, so she can sit anywhere a child can sit.
Even if there were seats, they would be for children!
Sitting in the stroller, Mu Xiaoyu was completely bewildered, staring blankly at Li Chenxu's smiling face. After a long while, she asked in a daze, "Why...why are you putting me up here?"
"Wouldn't that make things much easier for you? We wouldn't get separated, wouldn't that be perfect? Is there something wrong with that?"
