Chapter 41: Dreamy Resort
When Mu Sheng heard those words, his expression clearly froze.
He hadn't expected Shu Cang to suddenly make such a request, especially since Shu Cang had been very indifferent about such matters ever since they confirmed their relationship.
Thus, they hadn't even kissed yet.
The young man lowered his head, and even with his eye problems, he shyly avoided Shu Cang's gaze: "Am I... supposed to do it here?"
After a while, Shu Cang rasped, "Mhm."
Mu Sheng kept his head down, avoiding the other person's eyes, unable to help but furrow his brows in confusion.
Mu Sheng said, "You... lower your head a bit."
As the distance between them closed, Mu Sheng could more clearly smell the other person's scent.
It wasn't Shu Cang's smell.
Shu Cang used a custom cologne, the scent of which was very unique. At first, it seemed cool and elegant, but after a while, one could detect a subtle aggression lurking beneath.
But the person in front of him had a refreshing scent, more like that of fabric softener.
The other person didn't seem to use cologne much, and their height and build seemed similar to Shu Cang's—at least Mu Sheng couldn't discern the specific differences between them.
Yet, the voice was undeniably Shu Cang's.
Mu Sheng recalled the topics that those young masters had discussed earlier on the road:
There was a research center belonging to the Yu family nearby, which sold some small gadgets from their new research, like a compact voice changer.
Shi Zheng had even used that gadget to scare Zhuang Nian Nian with a ghostly voice.
As if he hadn't noticed anything unusual about the other person, Mu Sheng placed his hands on their shoulders and slowly leaned in, seemingly ready to comply with the request.
The young man's eyelashes trembled incessantly, and his face had turned completely red, but he still persisted in rising on his toes to get closer.
The man stared at his bashful demeanor, the corners of his mouth twitching, unable to genuinely feel happy.
Did Yu Mu Sheng really like Shu Cang this much?
As the distance between them continued to shrink, he waited in vain for the other person to call a halt.
Just as Mu Sheng was contemplating whether to pretend he had slipped and step back, the other finally made a move.
He pushed Mu Sheng away.
But he kept one hand behind the young man to prevent him from stumbling and falling.
"Shu Cang's" tone was laced with an uncontrollable irritation: "I dropped something on the way. You stay here and don't move; I'll grab it and come back."
After being pushed away, Mu Sheng was dazed, his head hung low, not daring to look at anyone, as if smoke were about to rise from his head.
He replied in a barely audible voice, "...Okay."
Before the man left, he reminded him once more: "Don't go anywhere; I'll be back soon."
Mu Sheng nodded.
Sure enough, not long after, footsteps sounded nearby again, walking straight toward Mu Sheng.
Shu Cang immediately noticed something was off with Mu Sheng, his gaze sweeping over the young man's dazed eyes and flushed face: "What's wrong?"
