Chapter 1410: Chapter 1424: Peace of Mind

At that time, he was determined to give the girl a stable and carefree life, one that could be lived boldly and freely.

Later, every time he saw her, he couldn’t help but record her every move, to the extent that it became a habit. Even after they were together, knowing she wouldn’t mind his actions, he still enjoyed secretly capturing her every movement.

She was so genuine, so wonderful.

An Ran’s cheeks reddened even more from his teasing words, yet she chose to ignore the topic.

"Why have you only slept for such a short time? You have injuries now; sleeping more will help with your recovery." An Ran raised the hospital bed a little higher and added another pillow behind him.

Mu Xingfeng might not look fat, but he’s all muscle. It took quite some effort for her to place the pillow behind him, her entire body almost leaning on his left shoulder, exerting all her strength.

She somewhat doubted whether it was truly Mu Xingfeng who managed to get up alone to the bathroom in the morning.

After placing the pillow properly, she let out a long breath, ready to step away, but a solid and powerful arm wrapped around her.

With her movements now restrained, she hesitated to lean forward, scared to move, fearing that reopening the injury might render his arm useless.

She bent halfway over, silently cursing this domineering man in her heart.

Mu Xingfeng inhaled the fragrance emanating from her and the unique scent of her hair.

He could recognize that it was the shampoo scent he chose because An Ran liked this brand. Whether it was at Longteng Xinyuan or the An Family in Nan’an, it was always this shampoo.

Later, after returning to the Imperial City, he had the Mu Mansion bedroom and the villa’s toiletries replaced with the brand she liked.

"Are you done yet?" An Ran leaned on Mu Xingfeng’s uninjured left shoulder, using her chin as a support, placing her waist loosely against his left side and finally couldn’t help but ask.

Her words, filled with half-joking annoyance, directly doused the tender thoughts in Mu Xingfeng’s mind.

Releasing the small body in his embrace, he saw An Ran’s little face scrunching together, and what kind of expression was that?

"What’s wrong, wife?" Mu Xingfeng was stunned by her playful yet angry look.

"You better just sleep quietly."

Mu Xingfeng watched her small actions and chuckled softly.

"Hey, don’t move, I can do it myself. Be careful of the wound," An Ran was startled by his movements.

He was a patient now; she was there to take care of him, how could she let him help her?

"Wife, your husband isn’t made of clay, as long as you don’t move around carelessly, the wound will be fine," Mu Xingfeng continued his actions.

An Ran didn’t move anymore either, leaning closer to the bedside and turning back to look at him.

"You seem to be in better spirits than this morning; you really should sleep a bit more. I’ve come here to accompany you, I’ve taken leave from school anyway, so you don’t need to exert yourself to stay awake for me. I will be by your side without leaving during this time."

Being apart more than together now, An Ran knew Mu Xingfeng was reluctant to sleep because he wanted to be with her.

"There’s no need, I’ve rested well."

During the visit overseas, the constant vigilance required meant he hadn’t slept well. And towards the end of the visit, there had been a large-scale unrest over there.
