Chapter 1423: Chapter 1420: Might as Well Marry Myself!

Forget it, I’ve already taken this step, whatever happens, happens! At worst, if she doesn’t marry my brother, she’ll end up marrying me!

Qiao Muyun’s face was somewhat gloomy, then he stood up, stubbed out his cigarette. He walked to the bathroom, quickly removed his clothes, revealing his naked, solid, muscular body. He reached behind his head with both hands, released the elastic band, and let his long hair fall down his back, making him appear even more sexy and alluring.

Qiao Muyun paused for a moment, suddenly remembering the yellow ribbon that Zi Ruoxi had once tied his hair with. He had always kept it with him...

In an instant, a gentle and warm smile appeared on Qiao Muyun’s handsome and lean face. It felt as if a light, airy wine had seeped into his heart. Then he quickly tidied up his hair, tied it again with the elastic band. His deft hands skilfully twisted his long hair into a bun at the back of his head, walked into the bathroom, and turned on the lights and shower.

The sound of rushing water was echoed by the shower, washing away the excess grime and unclean thoughts from his soul.

When he came out, Qiao Muyun was wearing a striped men’s kimono, specially prepared by the hotel for their guests. Uh, wearing a kimono for the first time, sweat! Looking at himself in the mirror, he seemed reminiscent of those old samurais from Country R.

Qiao Muyun couldn’t help but shrug his shoulders, slipped on his slippers — uh, he felt a bit odd. He let his hair down, despite being tied up, it was still somewhat soaked, his half-dry long hair hanging on his back as he left the bathroom, and had barely taken a few steps into the bedroom.

"Knock knock knock... Knock knock knock..." The sound of knocking on the door was heard.

What!?

Who could it be at this time?

Could it be Zi Ruoxi? Uh...

Qiao Muyun instinctively glanced at the clock on the wall, it was now eleven o’clock. His dark green eyes inexplicably showed a hint of panic.

No time to think, as the door sounded once again, Qiao Muyun decisively walked to the door, tightened and loosened his grip on the door handle, appearing to adjust his emotions, then tightened his grip once more, "Click!" The door was opened with a twist. The moment it opened...

Uh...

Qiao Muyun was stunned. Why is it him?

Oh damn! Who else could it be, but that gay guy, Li Yaxuan?

Seeing Li Yaxuan elegantly leaning against the door, a seemingly teasing expression on his handsome face. The ordinarily proper kimono seemed mismatched on him, with his belt loosely tied and a laid-back demeanor.

His face was clean and innocent, yet it was this overly pure and harmless appearance that reminded Qiao Muyun of his indecent behavior on the plane.

Suddenly.

Qiao Muyun’s handsome brows furrowed. His face was tinged with coldness.

"What do you want?" He asked directly. He had no intention of letting him inside.

The other party listened and flashed a smile.

"Oh! I thought you were resting, haha. I was just idle with nothing to do, couldn’t sleep, so I came over to chat!" Li Yaxuan said with a smile. As he spoke, he tried to walk inside, but the other person’s stance seemed...

"Mr. Xu really plans to just block me at the door like this?" Li Yaxuan countered, casually, and then stood upright, speaking leisurely, "After all, I had diagnosed your sister, and maybe one day I’ll be her attending physician!"

Qiao Muyun was rendered speechless, yet he didn’t think there was anything good to chat about with this gay guy. During the day, Li Yaxuan had forcibly inserted himself into the conversation between him and Zi Ruoxi, which Qiao Muyun found particularly annoying.

"Sorry, I’m not planning to chat." Qiao Muyun said directly, without any expression.

"No preparation needed." The other party interjected. With a handsome and charming smile.

Faced with Li Yaxuan’s seemingly shamelessly boring attitude, Qiao Muyun instinctively prepared not to engage further. He took a slight step back, ready to use force to close the door directly.

Unexpectedly, before the door could close, the other party’s words were faster.

"I’m here to talk about your sister. Regret if you don’t listen." Li Yaxuan said decisively.

As a result.

Qiao Muyun suddenly paused his action of closing the door, and in the next second, he pulled the door wide open. His dark green eyes casually glanced at him. Arms crossed as he turned his head.

"Come in." He said coldly, then went about his business, walking into the room, not caring how the person behind him felt.

Li Yaxuan didn’t mind, his lips curling up in a crooked smile, his eyes mischievous. After walking into the room, he closed the door behind him.

Truth be told, in Li Yaxuan’s eyes at this moment, Qiao Muyun was truly a rare beauty, even more captivating than during the day. If during the day he seemed robust, then at night he displayed a mix of allure and masculinity. Both sexy and poised, his long black hair cascaded like a waterfall down his back, glowing with a satin-like sheen. Just turning around sparked endless imaginings for Li Yaxuan, making him want to touch that softness immediately.

While Li Yaxuan was lost in thought, Qiao Muyun was completely unaware. Yet he held no fondness for this person, no, more precisely, he held no fondness for anyone of that type.

Qiao Muyun stood in the living room, turned his face halfway, and looked at the visitor.

"Yi Bing, what’s wrong with her?" His tone held a hint of doubt. At this moment, Qiao Muyun silently prompted himself to get used to this still somewhat unfamiliar name, then as if a bit anxious, he questioned hastily without waiting for the other’s response, "Is there something wrong with her face?" He was a bit nervous inside, really hoping she would get better.

Li Yaxuan smiled faintly.

"You seem very concerned about her!" Li Yaxuan said, spicing up his words with a double entendre. He was more curious about their relationship than he was about the illness.

"Nonsense!" Qiao Muyun replied impatiently. Then he gazed directly into his eyes, asking, "What’s the real situation, just say it."

"Haha, why the rush?" Li Yaxuan seemed unperturbed, slowly walking to the counter, picking up a bottle of wine sitting there. It was a uniquely designed bottle, made of frosted glass with hazy liquid inside.

This Japanese sake, known for using the renowned Tan-no-Miya Water as its water source, was clear and refreshing, boasting a unique and pure aroma. Li Yaxuan then picked up a wine cup and poured himself a drink. Leisurely savoring it, with his tongue subtly tasting it, he couldn’t help but praise, "Indeed, it’s good sake, fragrant and refreshing, leaving a lasting aftertaste!"

Qiao Muyun frowned slightly, finding this person entirely unceremonious, to be so casual in his room. He just watched as Li Yaxuan picked up another wine cup, filled it, and slowly walked over, handing it to him.

Qiao Muyun glared at him sideways, took the wine cup with one hand, and stared at the bright liquid full of doubts. What is this guy up to? What vibe is he trying to create with me? Damn! This gay guy.
