Chapter 434 - A Couple Walked on the Embankment (2/2)

“Aha! You aren’t clever when you should be clever, and you aren’t stupid when you should act stupid.”

“Ignorance is bliss, what would a man like you know?”

“Why are you playing dumb? You’re already quite silly, so babe, you don’t need to play dumb.”

“You’re the one who’s silly. Your entire family is silly.”

“Wait until I abduct you into my family, and we’ll see if you have the guts to say that anymore.”

“…”

Later, when Yun Xi saw the framed words, “Ignorance is bliss”, in Mu Feichi’s study, she realized that for this young, mature, talented, and resourceful man, being blissfully ignorant wasn’t an easy task.

They could all play dumb, but being blissfully ignorant was a luxury for him.

This iron-blooded man could become soft and gentle for a woman or become the sharpest weapon to bear the weight of his country on his shoulders.

But it seemed that no one had ever asked him what his dreams were.

She was also a little curious. After all, he’d followed his father onto the battlefield when he was very young. He must have had pa.s.sions and dreams when he was young, right?

“Young Marshal Mu, do you have dreams?”

Yun Xi raised her head and asked him this question. Her dark eyes sparkled like bright stars. They were as dazzling as the night.

“I have a lot of dreams, so which one do you mean, babe?”

“Your first dream.”

“…” At the mention of this, the light in Mu Feichi’s eyes gradually faded, and he raised his eyes to look at the lights in the distance.

Yun Xi unexpectedly saw a flash of despondence and loneliness in his eyes and suddenly realized that she seemed to have asked a question that shouldn’t have been asked.

She had never seen him like this before. His sharp, cold eyes were always full of calm and wisdom.

Even if he was occasionally overbearing and unreasonable, there was always arrogance in his eyes.

His pitifully lonely expression unexpectedly made her heart ache a little.
