Chapter 1279: You Might As Well Just Eat Me
"Then start singing!" Huo Jincheng signaled.
"Okay." Lu Xingzhi just opened her mouth, but then stopped. She finally realized she couldn’t sing.
Seeing Lu Xingzhi sitting there, dumbfounded, Huo Jincheng asked, "What’s wrong? Why aren’t you singing?"
"I... I can’t sing." As Lu Xingzhi spoke, tears started to fall, pitifully, and her body was shaking. "You... you’d better eat me!"
"Alright, alright, don’t cry, let’s not cry first!" Huo Jincheng had to hug her, feeling incredibly sorry for her.
"Then can you not eat me, please?" Lu Xingzhi’s eyelashes were dotted with tears. "I’m not tasty."
"No way! Clearly, you’re very tasty." Huo Jincheng felt both sorry and amused, wanting to tease her.
"Then hurry up and eat me!" Lu Xingzhi closed her eyes, displaying a look of surrender.
"Alright! Seeing how pitiful you are, I won’t eat you." Fearing that she’d burst into tears again, Huo Jincheng stopped.
"Really? You’re not lying to me?" Sniffling, Lu Xingzhi asked.
"Yes, I won’t eat you. But, can you wash yourself first, little cabbage? Or should I help you?" Huo Jincheng said.
"How to wash? Take apart leaf by leaf to wash?" Lu Xingzhi was still a bit scared.
"No need, just put you in the water and wash slowly. How about it?" Huo Jincheng thought he shouldn’t go too far, but still wanted to tease her.
"Then help me wash!" Lu Xingzhi felt like she was a little cabbage right now, and that she couldn’t wash herself clean.
"Okay. Wait for me a moment, and don’t sneak away, or I’ll eat you, you know?" Huo Jincheng intentionally made a fierce face, almost scaring Lu Xingzhi into tears.
"I won’t run." Lu Xingzhi said in a tearful voice.
Huo Jincheng was really conflicted now. She was so cute when drunk; it’s best to cherish her by himself.
However, if Lu Xingzhi could see herself, it would satisfy his mischievous streak.
But, if she saw herself, such an opportunity might never come again.
After all, his little wife was very disciplined.
She barely drank at all, and now, after such an encounter, she probably wouldn’t touch another drop of alcohol for a lifetime.
Huo Jincheng knew that today he could only help Lu Xingzhi remove her makeup, wash her face, and care for her tender little face.
However, he relished the task.
After washing Lu Xingzhi clean, Huo Jincheng lifted her.
"All clean now?" Lu Xingzhi yawned.
"You’re very clean now, so I’m allowing you to sleep on the bed." Huo Jincheng said coolly.
As if letting her sleep on the bed was a favor.
"Really?" Lu Xingzhi’s eyes sparkled.
"Really."
Lu Xingzhi embraced Huo Jincheng, "You not only look good but are also a good person."
Being inexplicably given a ’good person’ card, Huo Jincheng: "..."
It seemed necessary to remind his little wife not to drink if he wasn’t around.
Lu Xingzhi curled up in the blanket, only exposing her head, and then, with both hands, she tightly clutched the blanket, warily saying, "You’ve washed me so clean, you won’t wait until I fall asleep and then eat me, right?"
She was genuinely not reassured.
