    Chapter 251 When Will You Remember?

    That night, when Yun Mu returned to the hotel after filming night scenes, it was already eleven o'clock.

    The room was quiet.

    Could Huo Tingying still not be back?

    She didn't turn on the lights, using the moonlight to pour herself a glass of water, took off her shoes, and walked barefoot on the soft carpet to the window.

    But she discovered that under the moonlight, the man was lying sideways on the sofa, his figure tall and imposing.

    It seemed the man had been drinking, as his body carried a mix of intoxicating alcohol fumes.

    His thick lashes were lowered, his thin lips slightly pursed.

    The creator must truly be biased; how could a man be so exquisitely handsome?

    She sat down on the carpet, supporting herself with one hand on the sofa, and carefully examined the man's face under the moonlight. Her slender, tender fingertips slowly traced down his handsome cheeks along his brow.

    You jerk, you're not bad-looking.

    Just thinking that such a handsome man might have been touched by another woman made her angry.

    So she took advantage of him being asleep and pinched his cheek hard.

    Suddenly, the sleeping man opened his deep eyes, pulled her with his long arm, and swiftly wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her onto the sofa. He rolled over, pressing her tightly beneath him.

    Yun Mu drew in a sharp breath, meeting his deep gaze, "When... when did you wake up?"

    The man's voice, laced with drunkenness, was hoarse and oddly sexy, "When you were teasing me."

    "Teasing you... I was pinching you!" Yun Mu denied.

    He raised an eyebrow, letting out a muffled laugh from his chest, and gently rubbed his nose against her soft cheek, "Then tell me, why did you pinch me?"

    Yun Mu felt a tingling sensation from his touch and pushed him away with her small hands, "On a whim... don't hold me, I haven't taken a shower yet, I stink..."

    Huo Tingying sniffed at her neck, "Where do you smell? You smell nice."

    As he spoke, he held her even tighter in his arms, his tone like he was coaxing a child.

    Thinking that Huo Tingying might have also held another woman this intimately, Yun Mu felt a pang of jealousy.

    Without thinking, she blurted out, "Huo Tingying, where did you learn these tricks for coaxing women?"

    "You, of course."

    "Liar! You clearly had other women!"

    "Where did you hear that..."

    Huo Tingying was about to refute but suddenly remembered something and stopped.

    Back then, while searching for the owner of the jade pendant, despite his covert actions, he had caused quite a stir. This little woman would know if she had put any effort into finding out.

    So... is she now jealous of herself?

    Huo Tingying found it amusing and almost laughed.

    After all, he had drunk so much of Ji Ming's jealousy; it was time for this little woman to taste jealousy too.

    But seeing her frowning, looking so aggrieved, he felt a twinge of guilt.

    With a light sigh, he gently caressed her soft chin with his thumb, coaxing her, "Apart from you, I've never had another woman."

    Yun Mu grabbed his hand, looking at him seriously, "Really? Swear it?"

    He nodded and raised his hand, "I swear."

    Yun Mu scrutinized his expression until she was convinced he wasn't lying, then smiled contentedly.

    Huo Tingying pressed his hand to the back of her head, leaning in to cover her red lips with his own.

    Under the moonlight, their embracing figures were gentle and intimate.

    Seeing the woman in his arms panting softly and covered in a fine sheen of sweat, Huo Tingying was about to proceed further when his phone rang.

    Looking at the caller ID, Huo Tingying frowned.

    Yun Mu glanced at it, "Go ahead and handle your work; I'll take a shower."

    She had just finished working and felt sticky and uncomfortable.

    Huo Tingying kissed her deeply once more before suppressing his desire, picked up his phone, and stood up, "Wait for me."

    Watching the man walk to the desk and start working, Yun Mu patted her chest, grabbed her pajamas, and went into the bathroom.

    Soaking in the warm bathtub, she sighed in comfort.

    Reflecting on everything that had happened recently, she fell into deep thought.

    The Yi family of the Southern Mystic Continent, the Yun family, the chaotic Huo family, and the mysterious woman who might appear at any moment...

    Lost in thought, Yun Mu gradually closed her eyes.

    She was truly exhausted.

    It was unclear how much time had passed when she felt someone lifting her up, wrapping her in a soft towel, and slowly carrying her out of the bathroom.

    Smelling the familiar scent, she did not wake up but instead wrapped her arms around him, rubbing against his chest like a little kitten.

    At that moment, he stopped moving.

    A hoarse and helpless voice came from above, "You... even when you're unconscious, you like to hold onto men while sleeping?"

    She vividly remembered the first time they met on the train, where she had held onto him like a defenseless kitten, seeking warmth before falling into a deep sleep.

    Yun Mu suddenly woke up, raising her head only to meet the man's doting, deep gaze.

    Her face instantly turned crimson as she hurriedly tried to wriggle out of his embrace.

    But the towel, already loosely hanging on her body, slipped off during her struggle—

    And fell to the ground!

    Huo Tingying's gaze followed it down.

    His eyes instantly heated up, his breath becoming hot.

    This scene felt oddly familiar.

    When she had first married into the Huo family, she seemed to have pulled off Huo Tingying's towel in a similar manner.

    That time, she almost faced immediate consequences!

    Yun Mu was stunned.

    She quickly bent down to pick up the towel, wrapping it around herself, and then accused him.

    "What are you doing? Being a pervert!"

    Huo Tingying laughed, "Mrs. Huo, if I hadn't carried you out, you would have suffocated in there. Do you want me to become a widower at such a young age?"

    "I... I was just too tired, so..."

    Huo Tingying didn't wait for her hesitant explanation; he simply lifted her up and threw her onto the soft bed.

    This time, he wasn't going to let her off easily.

    "Mrs. Huo, I'll show you what being a pervert really means."

    Before Yun Mu could react, she was kissed senseless.

    She felt something was strange about him tonight, yet couldn't pinpoint what exactly was different.

    There seemed to be more longing and dominance, as well as... a sense of regained possession?

    As the night grew deeper, Huo Tingying finally held the now sweaty and exhausted her, closing his eyes contentedly.

    He slowly turned, gazing at the sleeping beauty in his arms, her excessively lovely face, and a smile crept across his lips.

    "Why are you so foolish? When will you remember, hmm?"

    In her sleep, Yun Mu seemed dissatisfied with being scolded, grumbling and shifting before burying her head back into the blanket.

    In that moment, Huo Tingying's heart melted.

    It didn't matter; he had all the patience to wait for her to remember, no rush.
