Beware the Appearing Cute Wife!

When Chu Xici saw what Yege had in her hand and heard her question, he knew he couldn’t hide it anymore.

He just smiled faintly without speaking, but his eyes sparkled like crystal.

Seeing him silent, Yege knew her guess was right. She pouted and said:

"Tsk, you said Yunqing gave it to me. I asked him, and he said he gave Ferrero! I don’t believe your memory is so bad that you’d mix this up! Brother, you really are... Why didn’t you just tell me?"

Yege, saying this, already had an answer in her heart.

Turns out her brother could be so childish and even a bit pretentious!

Finally, Chu Xici spoke up.

"You’re still awake this late, just waiting for me to ask this?"

Even though Yege exposed him, Chu Xici didn’t feel embarrassed; his expression didn’t change at all. He just looked at little Yege, smiling with his eyes.

And Yege, who initially felt a bit accusing, felt a bit embarrassed when meeting Chu Xici’s calm gaze.

"Uh, of course... not..."

Chu Xici stepped forward and asked:

"Then, is there anything else?"

Last night, after Chu Xici sent the chocolate pretending it was from Yunqing, he felt it might get exposed soon. Sure enough, it was less than 24 hours!

Yege blinked, "Uh, actually... I have a gift I want to give you. I forgot last night."

Chu Xici smiled, "Oh, what gift?"

His gaze was so gentle, and his voice so pleasing that Yege’s heart fluttered.

"Hold on a moment, I’ll go get it!"

With that, Yege turned and ran back to her room. Soon, she brought a delicately wrapped box to Chu Xici’s hand.

"Here, it’s this!"

Chu Xici took it; hmm, it seemed like something substantial.

"What is it?"

Chu Xici asked with a smile, seeing little Yege a bit shy.

"Oh, you’ll know once you’re back in your room!"

"So mysterious?"

Chu Xici found it quite interesting.

Yege blushed under his gaze...

"I need to sleep now. I have class tomorrow! Goodnight!"

Saying that, Yege turned and went back to her own room.

Chu Xici returned to his room with the item in hand, a smile in his eyes.

She said she forgot last night, so... is this a Valentine’s Day gift?

He was quite curious about what gift this little girl would give him.

Chu Xici carefully untied the ribbon outside, then the outer packaging. Quickly, a small box appeared inside, and when it was opened, he saw a black... mug.

A mug?

Instantly, Chu Xici’s heart skipped a beat.

A lifetime?

Did that little girl know the hidden meaning behind gifting a mug?

Holding the small mug, Chu Xici’s heart filled with a gentle warmth.

A lifetime? Is that really it?

But this mug was completely black; was her sense of aesthetics really this bad?

But soon, Chu Xici thought of something, his heart skipped a beat, so he picked up the mug and filled it to the brim with hot water.

A miracle happened.

The mug’s body suddenly transformed into white, and her smiling face emerged on it.

Was this the Valentine’s Day gift she gave him?

Chu Xici took a deep breath, as if some intense emotion was slowly fermenting, expanding, making him feel passionately zealous.
