Chapter 601-602
Chapter 601: I’ll Take off My Clothes and Let You Look at Me
“Come on, let me see.” Mu Feichi moved the quilt off of her.
Yun Xi pulled the quilt around her with one hand and pushed him away with the other. A muffled voice came out from under the quilt, “You stay away from me!”
“What’s the matter?” Mu Feichi looked down at his little ostrich and understood what was going on. He obediently stood up, sat down on the chaise longue, and looked at her.
With his slender legs crossed, he lazily admired the figure lying on the bed.
What he was thinking about was the honey trap she had used on him in the tree last night.
Coquettish or annoyed, with a frown or a smile, she was irresistible.
“What I should see and what I shouldn’t have seen were all seen last night. It’s too late for you to hide now.”
Enjoying her humiliated state, he couldn’t resist teasing her in his leisurely tone, as if he was talking about the weather.
“Mu Feichi, you shut up!” Glaring at him with annoyance, Yun Xi turned her head toward him irritably. “You’ve gone overboard by taking advantage of me while I was asleep!”
“You are going to marry me sooner or later anyway, so it’s really irrelevant whether I look at you now or look at you later.”
“You jackass! I didn’t promise to marry you. Don’t talk nonsense.”
“Who do you want to marry if you don’t marry me? Jiang Henglin?” When he mentioned her so-called fiance, Mu Feichi’s eyes got dark and his usual domineering attitude returned. He continued, “I forgot to tell you that when you reach adulthood, Commander Mu will go to the Jiang family to call off the engagement for you. If he doesn’t go, I also have a way to get Yun Yuanfeng to go to their door and call off the marriage personally.”
“Mu Feichi, you are unreasonable!”
“Babe, I’m just telling you the truth. Now that you have passed the assessment, you must be mentally prepared to be the madam of the Mu family.”
“I don’t want to!”
“You have to do it even if you don’t want to.” He stood up and walked toward her. Looking down at her with a look of dissatisfaction, he said, “You’re that unhappy? Then I’ll take off my clothes and let you look at me as well, okay?”
“Get lost!” He was such a perverted flirt. Did he really think that she was that much of a pushover just because she was injured?
“Okay, little highness, I’ll get lost. Can you get up to wash and eat breakfast? Do you want me to provide you with any service?”
“I want you to get lost, all right?” Lifting her head, Yun Xi glared at him from under the covers.
“Okay! I’m just outside the door, so you can call me if you need me.”
...
While changing her clothes, Yun Xi discovered that, at some point, Mu Feichi had hung all her clothes from the guest room in his closet.
Looking at all the colorful dresses and jackets among the dark green uniforms in the closet, Yun Xi suddenly felt that there was something weird that couldn’t really be expressed.
How come she felt as if the two of them were already married and living together?
If this continues, she was really going to get sucked in.
She sighed lightly. Avoiding the injury on her back, she changed her clothes and opened the door. She wasn’t surprised to see the man standing right outside the door.
Even though she used to be unscrupulous and thick-skinned in fighting with him, she was embarrassed now because of what they were arguing about.
“Let’s go down for breakfast! I asked for a leave of absence for you, so you can stay at Mu Mansion to recuperate for two days.”
“No, I’m going to take my exams soon. I have to go back to school. No matter how good my grades are, I will be considered too arrogant by my classmates if I often ask for leaves. The back injury is just a shallow injury. I know how to take care of myself.”
She was a medical student, after all, so she had been able to judge the severity of the wound.
“All right, I’ll take you to school after breakfast.”
Mu Feichi knew that there were some things that couldn’t be rushed, and it was better to take a step-by-step approach than to rush something.
What he wanted was a lifetime of being together, not a spur-of-the-moment pleasure.

Chapter 602: Act First and Tell Him about It Later
In the combat command room, an arrogant figure stood silently in front of the monitor screen. A beret embedded with the national emblem sat atop the man’s short hair.
The room’s flickering light cast a shadow on his sharp facial features, making it difficult to make them out.
No military rank was apparent on his dark green camouflage uniform, but his presence was impossible to ignore because of his strong, calm aura.
The man’s gaze on the screen was concentrated on the figure fighting with the wolves. When she was using her knife, she was fast, ruthless, and without any hesitation.
Even when she’d tied Mu Feichi to the tree, the way in which she had tied the rope had been very special. She had obviously practiced the winding technique. This was an unusual way of knotting things, not even common in the navy.
She had even simplified the complicated bundling method to be faster and more precise.
Although her marksmanship was not very good, she was definitely a seed worth nurturing.
“What do you think? When you met Mu Feichi, there was no early assessment to assess his strength. How about this girl? Was she worth it for you to personally come out?”
Mu Chongli had made two cups of tea, and, as he passed the tea over, he asked aloofly.
Yan Shuo took his gaze away from the screen, turned around, and walked over to a table and sat down. His straight posture seemed characteristic of a stern, serious soldier.
Picking up his teacup, Yan Shuo gently rolled the tea leaves around the teacup. “This little girl is very special. She is a good seed.”
After taking a sip of tea, Yan Shuo raised his head and looked at Commander Mu, who was waiting for his answer. “If I were 20 years younger, I’m afraid that I would be just like your kid. For this girl, I would do whatever it takes.”
It was rare to hear a man who had always been serious and restrained joking with him. Mu Chongli was a little surprised. “It’s not like you to make a joke.”
“I’m not joking.”
Yan Shuo turned his head to look again at the small face with her head slightly raised that was frozen on the monitor screen. It seemed that she had discovered the surveillance camera in the tree, and her eyes were sharp and full of fierceness as she glared at it.
Those eyes were very pure, but they were also very lively.
He felt as if he had seen again the Mu Feichi from back in the days when he’d been training him. It was amazing that at her age, she seemed to have more courage and tenacity than Mu Feichi had had back then.
After so many years, he had never met such an interesting person as Mu Feichi. And Mu Feichi had been awarded the rank of No. 1 Young Marshal in the military.
This little girl was really something worth looking forward to.
“If it were in the war years, I would cultivate her into the best spy in the military.” Yan Shuo put down his teacup and smiled. “However, obviously, the kid would never agree to her taking this path.”
Feeling helpless about his extremely outstanding, yet extremely troublesome, son, Mu Chongli nodded.
“You are a person who cherishes talent. If this girl wants to become a young marshal’s wife, with her current ability, she will only hinder Mu Feichi. How to persuade them is your business. I don’t want to get dragged into Mu Feichi’s mess one day.”
These two men were the people who knew Mu Feichi best, and they were also the elders who had watched him grow up. The boy’s domineering yet introverted temperament could be said to have two extremes, so he was prone to doing outrageous things.
This time, Mu Chongli had taken a risk to test this girl, and he’d also risked Mu Feichi flipping out at him. Fortunately, this girl had not disappointed him.
Yan Shuo had seen a piece of uncut jade that was also a hot potato, and he also felt a lot of pressure.
“That girl... It’s easy to say, as for Mu Feichi...” Yan Shuo lowered his eyes. “However, with your son’s violent temper and how he doesn’t take anyone but himself seriously, if you want to take this girl away, I am afraid that you’ll have to act first and tell him about it later.”
“Why, have you thought of a way?”
“There will be military drills across the ******** ******. This year, it is Mu Feichi’s turn to preside over it as a young marshal, so you should take advantage of this time when he will be gone.”
Mu Chongli thought about the timing. It just so happened that the girl would have finished her college entrance examination by then, so the timing was just right.
It would be impossible to convince Mu Feichi, so he was going to have to act first and tell him about it later.
