Chapter 108 Can I Kiss You?
The three of them returned to their residence hand in hand, with Mu Feng forcing a smile. His smile seemed a little stiff, and his eyes revealed an unconcealable envy and a subtle hint of inferiority.
His eyes would occasionally fall on the tightly clasped hands, then quickly move away, as if that was a light he dared not look directly at.
Mu Feng lowered his head unconsciously, clasping his hands tightly in front of him. He said congratulations, but his voice trembled slightly: "Congratulations, it's great."
He tried to straighten his back, trying to appear natural, but he couldn't control the slight trembling of his shoulders. Occasionally, he looked up at the three of them, his eyes filled with complex emotions, including blessings for the Shangguan brothers, as well as helplessness and sadness about his own life experience.
When the three of them were immersed in the joy of happiness, Mu Feng turned around quietly. A tear slipped down his face the moment he turned around. He quickly wiped it away with his sleeve, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his inner waves. He didn't want them to see his vulnerability and loss.
Su Yue noticed something was wrong with Mu Feng, so she gently let go of Brother Shangguan's hand and walked over to Mu Feng. She patted Mu Feng's shoulder and asked with concern, "Mu Feng, what's wrong with you? Are you worried about something?"
Mu Feng pretended to be calm and forced a smile: "No...nothing, I'm really happy for you."
Su Yue frowned and said, "Mu Feng, you and I have known each other for a long time, so you don't have to hide anything from me."
Mu Feng was silent for a moment, and finally couldn't help but say: "Seeing you so happy, I envy you so much. I come from a humble background, and I don't know when I will be able to have such happiness."
Su Yue comforted him: "Mu Feng, happiness knows no background. As long as you have hope in your heart, you will always meet the right person."
At this time, Shangguan Haomu and Shangguan Haochen also came over, and Shangguan Haomu said, "Yeah, Mu Feng, don't be so depressed."
Shangguan Haochen also nodded: "That's right, we are all family, and everything will be fine in the future."
Listening to everyone's words of comfort, Mu Feng felt a mixture of emotions. He knew that he would never be able to express his feelings for Su Yue. He lowered his head slightly, avoiding Su Yue's concerned gaze, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, I will adjust myself."
Su Yue looked at Mu Feng's lonely expression and felt a little reluctant in her heart, but at the moment she was preoccupied with her marriage with Brother Shangguan and had no time to care too much about Mu Feng's emotions.
That night, Su Yue personally cooked some food to celebrate the three people's auspicious day. It was not advisable to be too extravagant at the border, so Su Yue just made some simple dishes and shared them with the soldiers.
When the food was served, everyone sat around it. The soldiers looked at the food on the table and said with a smile, "Miss Su, I didn't expect you to have such a skill."
Su Yue smiled slightly: "The conditions are limited here, so please don't despise me."
The soldiers expressed their gratitude one after another. You know, they always cooked for themselves, and this was the first time they had eaten food cooked by a woman. The atmosphere was very lively for a while.
"This meal really makes us feel a different kind of warmth. Thank you, Miss Su!" A rough soldier said loudly with a simple smile on his face.
"Yes, Miss Su's craftsmanship is much better than what we can do ourselves!" Another soldier echoed, causing everyone to laugh.
Su Yue was infected by their enthusiasm and responded with a smile: "As long as everyone likes it, I will make it for you again when I have the chance."
Shangguan Haochen stood up excitedly, raised his glass and said, "Come, let's toast to Sister and thank her for her kindness!"
Everyone raised their glasses and drank it all.
At this time, a young soldier came up to Su Yue with a red face and said shyly: "Miss Su, you are so kind. It would be so happy if we could eat the meals you cook often."
Everyone laughed again, and Su Yue said with a smile: "As long as you don't mind, I'm willing to do it for you a few more times."
In this cheerful atmosphere, Mu Feng sat quietly by the side, watching Su Yue interact with everyone, and the bitterness in his heart became more and more intense. He wished that he could express his love for Su Yue openly like the Shangguan brothers did, instead of just watching silently in the corner.
Shangguan Haomu picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it into his mouth, nodding and praising: "It tastes very good, Yue'er, you have worked hard."
Everyone ate and chatted, and laughter echoed in the tent.
After the meal, Su Yue looked at the satisfied faces of the people and felt a warmth in her heart. She knew how precious such simple happiness was in such a difficult environment.
However, she did not notice that when Mu Feng left, he turned back and looked at her deeply, his eyes full of attachment and reluctance.
Shangguan Haomu held Su Yue's hand and walked towards their residence. Shangguan Haochen was a little drunk and staggered. He stuck to Su Yue like a large pendant, holding her arm and refusing to let go, humming and acting coquettishly: "Sister, I'm so happy. This is the happiest day of my life." His eyes were half-closed and his face was flushed. The usual majestic appearance of a general was gone at this moment.
Su Yue looked at him like this and couldn't help laughing, "You, you're still acting like a spoiled child even though you're so drunk."
Shangguan Haomu smiled and said, "He only acts like a child in front of you."
Su Yue gently brushed away Shangguan Haochen's messy hair, her eyes full of tenderness and doting: "He's so cute like this."
Shangguan Haomu looked at Su Yue, his lips curled up: "Yuer, having you by our side is a blessing that we two brothers have cultivated for several lifetimes."
The three of them walked slowly, the moonlight shining on them, casting long shadows.
Back at the residence, Shangguan Haomu carefully placed Shangguan Haochen on the bed. But Shangguan Haochen was still mumbling incoherent words, tightly holding the corner of Su Yue's clothes and refusing to let go, "Sister, don't go."
Su Yue smiled helplessly and patted Shangguan Haochen's hand gently: "Go to sleep obediently."
Shangguan Haomu walked to Su Yue and gently hugged her from behind: "Yuer, when everything is settled, we will definitely give you a stable and happy home."
Su Yue leaned in Shangguan Haomu's arms and nodded: "Well, I believe you."
As the night deepened, the candlelight in the house flickered, illuminating the warm figures of the three people.
After finally getting Shangguan Haochen to calm down and fall asleep, Su Yue breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, Shangguan Haomu's eyes fell on Su Yue's face, his eyes filled with a bit of nervousness and anticipation, as well as a hint of subtle shyness.
He moved slightly closer to Su Yue, his voice trembling a little: "Yuer... Can I, can I kiss you?" After saying that, his face turned red instantly. He didn't dare to look directly into Su Yue's eyes, and his hands clenched unconsciously.
Su Yue was stunned at first, then her face flushed and she nodded gently.
With permission, Shangguan Haomu slowly raised his head, his eyes full of affection. He slowly approached Su Yue and gently touched Su Yue's forehead with his lips. At that moment, time seemed to stand still and everything around him became unimportant.
After the kiss, Shangguan Haomu looked like a child who had done something wrong, his eyes evasive: "Yuer, I..."
Su Yue raised her head and looked at him with a smile: "Amu..." Before she could finish, Shangguan Haomu gently kissed her lips again. This kiss was full of tenderness and love.
