Chapter 58: Dire Awkwardness

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The atmosphere turned awkward.

Until…

“Pain… pain… Xiao Huan, please get your hubby to release my hand!” Wu Xingye shouted. His wrist would really snap if the man continued to grip it.

“Hubby, please release him. He’s my good friend, and he was just teasing me earlier…” Mu Huan quickly clarified.

The man swept his gaze coldly at Wu Xingye before releasing his hand. “You are not allowed to tease her in this manner again.”

The boy was so relieved to be spared that he instinctively replied, “This will never happen again!”

Seeing that her husband was still unhappy, Mu Huan stood up immediately.

“Hubby, have you eaten? The hot pot here is superb. Do you want to try it?”

He was about to say that he would have his meal at home when she continued, “Hubby, the hot pot here is really nice. I’ve been craving to come here for a long, long time. Let’s eat together, shall we…?”

Bao Junyan: “…”

In the end, the man sat next to his wife.

She tried her best to find some common topics to share with him, but she was really lost in this aspect. Since they got married, they only spoke to each other when there was a need to. They hardly ever engaged in casual conversation.

After a long while, she suddenly thought of something. “Hubby, let me introduce my good friends to you. They are Li Meng and Wu Xingye.”

He snorted in acknowledgment.

And the atmosphere turned awkward again.

Moreover, he was a man of high status. Even if he did not speak, his overpowering presence was oppressive even when he was just sitting there quietly.

Her two friends looked to her and signaled her to ease the mood. They were too overwhelmed by him!

Feeling forlorn and helpless, she was lost for words as well! She very much wanted to ease the mood, too, as she was equally overwhelmed by him. However…

Right at this moment, the attendant served up the dishes.

She looked at the food as if the spread on the table was her savior. With her chopsticks, she hurriedly picked a piece of meat for him. “Hubby, the mutton here is the best. Have a try.”

He watched her putting a piece of raw mutton on his plate. “…”

Although he had not tried having hot pot in a restaurant in the past, he still knew that mutton could not be eaten raw.

Mu Huan: “…”

Why is the atmosphere becoming worse?

“Xiao Huan…” Li Meng called out quietly to her.

She turned to face her with a quizzical look.

Her friend had to signal to her with her eyes for some time before she realized what she had just done.

With her palm slapped over her face due to her deep embarrassment, she almost wished there was a hole in the ground for her to crawl into and hide in.

Still, she could not do that even if a hole did appear in the ground. Hence, with a sheepish look, she turned to look at her husband with an embarrassed smile. “Hubby, I was so excited to see you that I made the mistake of passing you a raw piece of mutton.”

He did not want her to be embarrassed further so he reached out to ruffle her hair instead. “Aren’t you looking forward to the hot pot here? The broth is ready now for your food.”

“Oh! Oh! Eat… eat…” she quickly put the meat inside the boiling hot pot.

The three of them were gluttons and could easily forget the task on hand when facing a delectable feast. They extended their chopsticks toward the hot pot simultaneously, and pretty soon, the pieces of meat inside the boiling pot were gone.

The man could tell that these three shared a camaraderie that came from a long-term friendship.

It was also difficult for anyone else to be part of their clique.

The thought of this made him frown, his eyes turning pensive and morose at the same time.

She could feel the atmosphere turning cold again, and this was when she realized that her husband sitting beside her had… not had a chance yet with the meat inside the hot pot.

Is he upset because he couldn’t get any food from the hot pot?
