CHAPTER 251: CHAPTER 264 PROBABLY COLD

"Ah..."

An Ran screamed in fright, and almost instinctively, she turned and leapt onto Mu Xingfeng, clinging to him like a koala bear.

She yelled with a trembling voice, "Dog... it’s a dog..."

With a sweet and delicate fragrance in his embrace, Mu Xingfeng instinctively reached out to support the girl. Feeling her entire small body trembling, he looked down at the small Poodle that was only a foot long. A mischievous smile flashed in his eyes: so this girl is afraid of dogs.

The woman who had just been avoiding him like the plague was now throwing herself into his arms. Should he consider staying in the old house for a few more days?

Mu Wanxin heard the scream and came downstairs with her hair still in a messy nest, looking at the two people at the staircase like they were a spectacle.

The cold and aloof iceberg of her family surprisingly had such a warm moment. This early in the morning, in front of all the elders, he was hugging and holding his little girlfriend so intimately. It truly opened her eyes.

A seven or eight-year-old little girl followed behind Mu Wanxin, mimicking her actions with a tilted head and staring at the two people curiously. She poked at Mu Wanxin and asked, "Sister-in-law, is this Brother Mu?"

Mu Wanxin looked them up and down like she was further confirming, then nodded, "In principle, yes."

"..."

What does ’in principle’ mean?

"Who is Brother Mu holding? What’s wrong with this big sister? Why is she still being held by Brother Mu at her age?"

"She... is probably cold," Mu Wanxin answered thoughtfully.

At this moment, Grandma Mu shouted from the side, "Wanxin, take your dog away, Ran is afraid of dogs."

Only then did Mu Wanxin realize the little dog at her feet, eagerly pawing at her leg and wagging its tail non-stop.

"Oh dear, Niuniu is back, Mommy missed you so much."

The Mu Family: "..."

Mu Wanxin reached down to pick up the little dog and said to An Ran, "An Ran, come down, this is Niuniu, very cute."

As she spoke, she even held the little dog up towards An Ran.

An Ran didn’t dare to look, clinging tightly to Mu Xingfeng’s neck, refusing to lift her head.

"Alright sis, she’s scared, don’t scare her anymore." Mu Xingfeng, feeling the girl’s tension, said. He patted the girl’s back reassuringly, "It’s okay now, sis took the dog away, you can come down."

Only then did An Ran realize her whole body was clinging to Mu Xingfeng, especially with the Mu Family elders behind them. She felt her face was lost all the way to the Pacific Ocean.

An Ran hurriedly got down from Mu Xingfeng, her face flushing red. Her two small hands twisted together tightly in embarrassment.

It really wasn’t her fault. Her childhood experiences of being chased by vicious dogs had given her an instinctive fear of dogs. Even a small dog terrified her.

At this time, a little girl approached, tilting her head and blinking her big eyes at An Ran. After staring for a full half-minute, she looked at Mu Xingfeng and asked, "Brother Mu, is this your girlfriend? Such a pretty sister."

Mu Xingfeng glanced at An Ran, then reached out to wrap his arm around her waist and nodded to the little girl, "Yes."

"Ya, who do you think is prettier, this sister or me?" Mu Wanxin, holding the little dog, asked from the side.

The little girl looked at Mu Wanxin’s messy hair, scrunched her cute little nose, but still said earnestly, "Sister-in-law and the big sister are both very pretty."
