That wasn't the love between a man and a woman. What Long Xiliang felt toward Hou Muyan was another kind of emotion, devoid of lust, full of fervent affection.
It was like how people enjoy the warmth of sunlight, but they don't desire to monopolize the sun.
However, even though he understood that Hou Muyan's feelings for Lu Xiaoyou were of this nature,
Long Xiliang still felt annoyed whenever Lu Xiaoyou praised Hou Muyan.
He was possessive. He felt an immediate aversion to any man who got too close to Lu Xiaoyou.
"Even if I can tell, I still want to hear you say it out loud."
Lu Xiaoyou looked at his stubborn expression and curved her lips into a smile:
"You're asking why I protect Little Monkey? Because he's adorable~"
Long Xiliang held back, swallowing the impulsive words that threatened to escape his mouth. His fingers hooked under Lu Xiaoyou's chin. "Stop praising other men for being cute!"
