Chapter 1871: Why Are You So Cute?
“Just now at Auntie’s place, I heard you call me Zhuoling.” Han Zhuoling’s lazy, alluringly hoarse voice had a hint of amusement in it as it gently drifted past her ear.
A drunk Han Zhuoling seemed to have become especially clingy as well and was strangely behaving like a child.
The moment he said that, he slightly moved his chin to rest on her shoulder so he was looking up at her.
It was way too close. This big, full face was different from just a side profile.
The moment she turned her head, his whole face became magnified so clearly right before her eyes.
He still looked so good and did not have any dead angles, but it made her very nervous.
Shi Xiaoya glanced at him and immediately did not dare to look anymore. She turned her head away, but her face had already reddened completely.
Han Zhuoling chuckled softly. “I like it when you call me like that.”
“Although you didn’t call me Young Master Ling previously, you still tried your best to avoid addressing me,” Han Zhuoling said.
Panic flashed across Shi Xiaoya’s eyes. She did not expect that he’d already noticed it.
“I noticed it, and I know that you’re still not used to it. We only just got together this week, so you might still not be used to it,” Han Zhuoling said. “Perhaps it’s because of our distance previously that you’re now unable to bridge the distance within a short span of time.”
Shi Xiaoya nodded fervently, afraid that Han Zhuoling would misunderstand.
But her behavior was really way too obedient.
Han Zhuoling could not help but plant a kiss on her earlobe. “Why are you so obedient?”
Shi Xiaoya forgot how to move after being teased by him.
Han Zhuoling continued, “But just now at Auntie’s place, you sounded quite natural when you called me that. I am very happy, and I like it when you call me like that.”
“Before, I... I just feel embarrassed, that’s why I couldn’t bring myself to say it.” Shi Xiaoya’s face heated up as she explained, “But in front of my mom, I couldn’t sound too distant when saying your name, lest it made her think that there was some problem between us.”
“The only problem is probably that you still can’t completely get used to your new identity now,” Han Zhuoling said with a smile. “Which is Han Zhuoling’s girlfriend.”
With this title, Shi Xiaoya could not help but smile sweetly.
“Han Zhuoling’s girlfriend,” Shi Xiaoya mumbled. “Hearing it sounds really nice.”
Han Zhuoling gave a low chuckle. His voice was a little hoarse, as if it was a bass note from a piano. It was indescribably pleasing and very soothing.
He sighed and said, “You little girl, why are you so cute?”
Shi Xiaoya received a wave of compliments from him without any warning at all. This man’s praise always seemed to be so random and sudden, without giving her any time to prepare for it at all.
Shi Xiaoya did not even know what she did for her to be so cute in his eyes.
She never felt that she was the cutesy kind of person.
“Call me again like how you called me in front of Auntie,” Han Zhuoling said.
Shi Xiaoya reached out and placed her palm on his forehead for a while. “Didn’t you have too much to drink? Don’t you feel terrible?”
“I want to hear you say it again even if I feel terrible.” Han Zhuoling held her hand as he said that. “After hearing you call me that, I will feel much better.”
What the heck!
Shi Xiaoya did not believe him.
She raised her eyebrow at him and said, “You’re calling her Auntie now? When we were eating, that’s not how you addressed her.”
Han Zhuoling gave a low chuckle. “You can’t wait to marry me, huh? Then I’ll call her Mom from now on.”
“No!” Shi Xiaoya said while blushing.
She forgot how thick-skinned this man could be.
Han Zhuoling held her hand. His five slender fingers slipped through the spaces between her fingers one by one, interlocking his hand with hers.
