Chapter 707: Wuxia: Even Rivals Can Become Lovers 41

Mu Huaizhi grew more aggrieved the more he spoke, sniffled, after a while he softly repeated, "I don't not believe you…"

All right, all right, why are you still crying?

He gently rubbed the reddened eye corners with his fingertip; Jin Chen lowered his head and kissed, it was a little hot.

Like a little rabbit.

He held him, kissing and coaxing for a long while, before Mu Huaizhi gradually calmed down, looking somewhat calmer.

"You're the one who's like a rabbit." Mu Huaizhi whispered in rebuttal.

He looked at the cloth bundle on the table, somewhat anticipating; this person had personally made the gift for seven days, hearing it sounded valuable.

What is this?

Open it and see.

Jin Chen placed it in Mu Huaizhi's embrace.

Slowly unwrapping it, Mu Huaizhi seemed to confirm something by touch, his eyes showing surprise; once the cloth was fully undone, he instinctively smiled, his fingertip lightly stroking it.

A sword sheath…

Jin Chen hummed, holding the person and playing with his hair, bringing it to his nose to sniff lightly, "Earlier I heard you say the Jade Hilt Dragon's sword aura is sharp; ordinary sheaths can't withstand it, so I made one myself."

This sheath is made of fine rosewood paired with jade; you needn't worry about it being damaged by the sword aura.

He said it lightly, but Mu Huaizhi saw the fine carvings and inlaid gems on it, knowing it must have taken great effort.

This pattern is actually extremely similar to the hilt of the Jade Hilt Dragon sword; holding the sword to test it, it feels like they were made for each other.

You should know that even the finest smith would need at least a month or two to make such a fine sheath.

Do you like it?

Seeing Mu Huaizhi just looking without speaking, Jin Chen inevitably felt a bit nervous, thinking that if he didn't like it, would the remaining rosewood be enough to make another one?

I like it…

Mu Huaizhi pursed his lips, turned and flung himself into his chest, raising his eyes to meet his gaze, "I really like it."

He never expected that a casual remark he once made with Sang Ning would be remembered by Jin Chen, who then spent so much time and effort to make it.

But… I haven't prepared a gift for you.

Mu Huaizhi felt a bit down.

Although he is the senior brother of the Heaven Sword Alliance, he has never cared for worldly possessions since childhood; money is enough as long as it suffices.

How could there be none? I've already received it.

Jin Chen's tone was mysterious and unfathomable.

What?

Just as he finished speaking, he was kissed on the lips; Mu Huaizhi hadn't yet reacted, and only after several seconds did he tremble, close his eyes, and respond awkwardly and inexperiencedly.

He still wasn't used to deep kisses; his waist went limp, and he could only cling to the shoulders to steady his body, the hand trapped at his waist scorching and full of strength.

You are my best gift.

Jin Chen paused to give him time to breathe, then whispered softly by his ear, hoarse and gentle.

His heartbeat seemed to skip a beat, and Mu Huaizhi felt a warm current wash over him.

In his life, which had not been short until now, Mu Huaizhi had never experienced such a thing; his life had been too conventional, and meeting Jin Chen was like throwing a stone into stagnant water.

The stagnant water stirred up waves, triggering a tsunami in his heart.

At this moment, in the quiet room, affection would peek out if not paid attention to, and thereafter it would become uncontrollable.

Mu Huaizhi's heart felt swollen, not knowing what words to use to respond.

He licked his lips, moved to the corner of Jin Chen's mouth to lick, an awkward kiss.

I like you…

Jin Chen, stirred by his teasing, felt a soft ache in his heart; he cupped his face with both hands and gave a deep kiss, lips and teeth entwined.

This kiss was extremely aggressive; Mu Huaizhi felt somewhat aroused, and as Jin Chen's fingertips teased him, his body grew softer, and certain unspeakable places also reacted.

He still kept in mind that at noon today he had to lead the disciples in sword practice, and also go report recent intelligence from down the mountain to his master.

But Jin Chen obviously had no intention of letting him go; after his clothes were undone, he became even more unrestrained.

They weren't even in an inner chamber; this table faced the room door, so if someone came to push it open, they could clearly see Mu Huaizhi's aroused state.

"No, at noon I still have things to do…" Mu Huaizhi's clothes were half-open.

"Huai zhi, are you really going out looking like this?"

Jin Chen kept pecking kisses at his neck, "I'll get jealous."

"Stay with me, okay?"

Mu Huaizhi endured, biting his lip, teased by those words to the point he could no longer attend to anything else.

So let him also be a rule-breaker for once.

"Okay…"

Mu Huaizhi tightened his arms around Jin Chen's neck, closed his eyes to meet him, and indulged in this desire he couldn't let go of.

Thus, as noon approached, the fact that the usually punctual senior brother didn't show up on time at the training grounds spread by word of mouth among the disciples.

Fu Zhiyuan heard it and directly complained to Fang Xun, "It must be that scoundrel Jin Chen who sought him out."

"He's always good at leading the senior brother astray."

Fang Xun heard it and was delighted beyond measure.

"Being able to corrupt the usually self-disciplined and courteous Mu Huaizhi is indeed Jin Chen's talent."

When it came time to enter the Study to report, it was Fu Zhiyuan and Fang Xun who went in his place, and the Alliance Leader Fu wondered aloud where Mu Huaizhi had gone.

Senior brother... he might have something important today.

Fu Zhiyuan casually made up an excuse.

What a coincidence; I was still planning to ask him whether he'd be willing to marry the young lord of the Marvelous Maiden Sect.

Alliance Leader Fu stroked his beard.

What?!

He was startled by the reaction of the two juniors, his beard-stroking motion paused—'What are you making such a big fuss for?'

Fang Xun took a deep breath, feeling that if he kept hiding it, Mu Huaizhi might be engaged tomorrow.

Uncle Fu, actually Huai zhi didn't come today because his... sweetheart has arrived at the Heaven Sword Alliance; the marriage matter might not be appropriate.

Fu Zhiyuan also nodded, 'Yeah, Dad, don't go messing with the mandarin duck register.'

'Sweetheart?' Alliance Leader Fu exclaimed, 'When did you get a sweetheart? Which sect is she from?'

Uh...

Fu Zhiyuan was choked up again.

I dare not speak; if I do, you'll die of anger.

Or you could just ask him yourself later.

Alright, alright, alright—after Old Mu passed away, I've always worried about this kid; now that he has a sweetheart, that's also good.

Alliance Leader Fu took a satisfied sip of tea, 'In that case, I'll refuse the Marvelous Maiden Sect's sect leader.'

The two let out a sigh of relief, finished reporting the intelligence gathered from down the mountain, and hurried out.

Huai zhi! Huai zhi!

Fang Xun arrived at his courtyard, knocked on the door and shouted a few times before someone answered.

What are you doing?

Jin Chen opened the door, poked his head out, 'He's still resting.'

Fang Xun: '...'

He doesn't even need to ask why he's resting during the day!

Uncle Fu asked about your identity; you two had better get your stories straight with us, or else you'll end up revealing your true selves.

Jin Chen rolled his eyeball, but his disguise isn't as numerous as Jiang Zhu's kid's.

Can't I just say I have no sect?

... That'll do for now, but if you want to get past Uncle Fu, this alone won't cut it.

Let's bluff our way through for now; I'll have a plan later.

Thanks.

Jin Chen finished speaking, then closed the door again.

Fang Xun helplessly rolled his eyes.
