Chapter 498: Wife Vibes

Since there were quite a few girls going to the comic convention this time, considering safety, headcount, and other issues, Hong Yi had specially driven out a large RV that had been specially modified.

Mu An and Hong Yi sat in the front seats, while the other girls chatted in the back, their happy laughter occasionally drifting forward.

“What’s your outfit today?”

Mu An glanced a few more times at Hong Yi in the driver’s seat.

At this moment, the girl was wearing a red wide-neck cotton sweater, not exposing her shoulders or chest, but revealing her sexy collarbone just enough.

On the lower half, she had on light blue warm-fleece jeans with a more casual homey style, the length reaching just above the knees, and below that was… black stockings?

And looking upward again, there was her ink-black long hair, white hairband, crimson contact lenses, and cone-shaped golden earrings…

Mu An gave his assessment.

Today’s Hongyi… was absolutely overflowing with wife vibes!

“I don’t know, Su Zhirou picked it out for me.”

“She said the character I’m playing now is also an assassin.”

Hong Yi kept her attention on driving while using the corner of her eye to glance at the man beside her.

After a pause, she very rarely took the initiative to speak, seemingly asking offhandedly,

“Does it not look good?”

 “It looks good, it does! It just feels like there’s suddenly a bit more of a wife vibe on you, which is kind of… strangely out of place?”

Mu An stroked his chin and chuckled lightly.

Mainly because Hong Yi was too used to being an assassin, and her gaze was far too sharp.

Like a hawk, as though in the very next second she would dive down and tear her prey to pieces, making people instinctively shiver in fear when they looked at her.

That was somewhat at odds with the gentle, harmless ‘wife’ image.

‘Wife vibes? Out of place?’

Hong Yi’s eyes refocused on the road ahead.

After a while, as if she had already thought over her wording in her heart, she spoke flatly,

“I don’t think it’s out of place.”

“A wife vibe is something decided by the wife herself.”

“And I…….”

At the end, Hong Yi stopped speaking abruptly.

[Hong Yi is a little angry at what you said. How is it that she doesn’t have wife vibes? How is it out of place? At the very least, she’s someone who knows you inside and out!]

Mu An had already ‘heard’ the girl’s unspoken meaning and shrugged helplessly.

“Alright, alright, among everyone in the car, you’re the one with the strongest wife vibes. Satisfied now?”

“Heh, you’re really perfunctory.”

“…..”

Not sure if it was just Mu An’s imagination, but he felt that right after he said that, the corners of the girl’s lips seemed to lift just a little bit?

Mu An: “……”

‘Heh, what a two-faced woman!’

…..

Sunny New City Convention Center.

Guided by on-site security, Mu An’s group’s van parked steadily in the underground parking lot.

“Sorry, it’s the girls’ makeup time now. Brother Mu An, you might have to get out and wait for a bit!”

Su Zhirou stuck out her cute little tongue.

Mu An joked, “Can I just stay in the car?”

“Y-yes… you can… I agree…”

Nearby, the socially anxious version of Tong Ziran timidly raised her little hand.

Bai Yi, who had a lollipop in her mouth, decisively cast the opposing vote.

This girl had come along without hesitation the moment she saw Hong Yi was coming too, and even grandly claimed it was to prevent some lecherous wolf from sneak-attacking Sister Hong Yi.

“No way! We still have to do makeup and change clothes later. If a grown man stays here, won’t we be completely exposed?”

“If it’s the young master, I don’t mind…”

The little maid Ning’er’s pretty face flushed a bit, shyly looking at Mu An.

Then she nodded in agreement to this somewhat ‘outrageous’ proposal.

Su Zhirou glanced at the other girls and quietly raised her own hand as well.

Afterward, she secretly leaned close to Mu An’s ear, breathing softly like orchid fragrance, and giggled, “I specially prepared this little treat for you… Brother Mu An, do you like it?”

“You little seductress, honestly……”

Mu An did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Truthfully, he was also a little tempted inside.

Watching a costume-changing performance live by five beauties, each with their own distinct charm… cough cough.

“Then I agree too!”

Little Youbai looked around nervously.

She looked up at the older sisters, then at Mu An, and raised her little hand high as well.

The moment she said that, everyone was startled, and they all spoke up in unison.

“No!”

“Absolutely not you!” *6

In the end, Mu An obediently chose to get off and wait.

Hong Yi was still by his side.

Su Zhirou and the others had also suggested touching up her makeup or changing her into another costume of the same character, but Hong Yi refused.

She felt her current makeup was just fine.

Yeah, the ‘wife vibe’ was strong enough.

No need for any more touch-ups.

Besides, this outfit was quite convenient for her to move in.

And speaking of which, the reason she came along this time was to protect Su Zhirou and the others.

Previously, under Mu An’s guidance, her cultivation realm had advanced by leaps and bounds.

In addition, she often sparred with the ‘assassin version’ of Tong Ziran to consolidate her actual combat strength.

Now, Hong Yi’s confidence had reached an unprecedented height.

Of course, that was assuming she was not up against a crazy cheating ‘monster’ like Mu An!

“Before coming, I already had Bai Yi hack into all the electronic surveillance here in advance.”

“If anything unexpected happens, we’ll know immediately. Besides, this time I’ll also stay by their side the whole time and do my best to ensure their safety.”

Hong Yi mentioned this casually.

Ever since Mu An gave her the task of protecting the girls, she had always kept it in mind, and had been diligently doing all the corresponding work.

Mu An was a bit surprised and stared at her for a while.

Hong Yi felt puzzled under his gaze.

“What? Is there something dirty on my face?”

“No dirt. Just your own unique wife vibes!”

Mu An chuckled softly and slowly withdrew his gaze.

All he could say was that time really was a magical thing.

Hong Yi, once the ‘assassin heroine,’ had truly changed a lot!

At this moment, perhaps even without the control of that ‘slave mark,’ she might still choose to remain by his side forever, right?

Unbeknownst to him, the moment he looked away, Hong Yi’s ears instantly flushed red.

She turned her head aside, bit her red lip tightly, and her eyes felt a little sore, as though she had an inexplicable urge to cry.

Perhaps the underground parking lot was a bit too windy and dusty.

Maybe something had accidentally blown into her eyes?

Or perhaps it was because she had finally received this man’s acknowledgment?

Even if it might only be the tiniest bit of acknowledgment, it was still… incomparably precious!
