Chapter – 79
 Objection Invalid
Mu Wanwan stopped walking. Her eyes fell on their joined hands. She lifted her chin slightly.
âDid you get my permission to hold my hand?â
Hearing the slight anger in her voice, Lu Li chuckled softly. Taking the chance, he asked playfully, âThen may I ask Miss Mu Wanwan, can I hold your hand?â
It was rare for him to joke like this. Mu Wanwan felt like her punch had landed on cotton. A faint smile flashed in her eyes.
âNo.â
âObjection invalid.â
As he spoke, he tightened his grip on her hand.
She couldnât win against him, so she stopped arguing. âWhere are we going?â
Lu Li said nothing. He gave her a mysterious smile. âYouâll know when we get there.â
Mu Wanwan looked confused. Before she could react, he had already pulled her forward.
After just a few steps, she hurriedly stopped him. âWait.â
âWhatâs wrong?â
Lu Li turned around. Mu Wanwan squatted down and rubbed her ankle. âMy foot hurts.â
âDonât wear these kinds of shoes again. Youâre just making yourself suffer,â Lu Li said firmly.
In the end, he was the one who spoke first again.
The corner of his lips curved into a beautiful smile. He turned around and squatted down.
âGet on.â
The two of them kept a silent understanding along the way.
Her soft voice made the softest place in Lu Liâs heart collapse instantly. He crouched down and reached out to take off her shoes.
After waiting for a while and getting no response from the person behind him, Lu Li urged, âMu Wanwan, how long are you going to daydream? Either I carry you all the way, or hurry up and get on.â
He had never changed.
He could always disturb her heartbeat without meaning to.
Stupid Lu Li. Such a sharp tongue.
She lowered her head and looked at the high heels lying quietly in the trash can. Helplessness appeared on her face. Now she really had to walk back barefoot.
The long night stretched on, stars shining brightly.
âMu Wanwan, you seem to have gained some weight.â
Mu Wanwan looked up at him. Her two little feet didnât know where to rest.
âEven so, you shouldnât have thrown away my shoes! What am I supposed to do now?â
She quickly looked around to make sure no one was there. Then she slowly climbed onto his back. After hesitating for a moment, her slender arms carefully wrapped around his neck.
âHey, Lu Li, why did you throw away my shoes?â
Mu Wanwan lowered her eyes and looked at the manâs strong back. She froze for a moment. When she came back to her senses, her eyes filled with a soft, intoxicating light.
âIf I take off my shoes, what am I supposed to wear? Walk barefoot?â she said as she removed her shoes.
âDonât loosen your grip, or if you fall, donât blame me,â he warned. Then Lu Li easily carried her on his back and walked slowly.
Mu Wanwanâs good mood disappeared instantly.
âIf you think Iâm heavy, I didnât force you to carry me. Put me down. I can walk by myself.â
She grabbed his hand, but she was still too late to stop him.
But when he opened his mouth, it was still to tease her.
âHey, donât move around. Youâll fall.â
Lu Li looked at the thin high heels she had taken off. The more he looked at them, the more dissatisfied he felt. He hooked them up with two fingers and casually threw them into the trash can nearby.
âAre you silly? Why wear such high shoes? Your feet are all red from rubbing.â His thumb gently rubbed her slightly swollen, red foot. His brows knitted lightly.
âWhat are you doing?â
After teasing his wife, Lu Li quickly coaxed her again. âI was joking. Youâre not heavy at all. Youâre light as a feather.â
âLiar.â Mu Wanwan pouted.
All the guests had gone to the banquet. The surroundings were quiet.
Lu Li suddenly felt his shoulder grow heavier. He turned his face slightly, and the womanâs peaceful sleeping face was close at hand.
