Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself-Chapter 46 - 56

"Alright, Xiao Xiao, I think you’re really not in a good state. Are you a masochist by nature?" An Ran said and then turned away from Xiao Xiao, her eyes inadvertently falling on Mu Xingfeng.

Is that really the case? Actually, she only thought that Mu Xingfeng was too decisive at first, punishing her without any investigation. But later, she also felt that something was odd.

Mu Xingfeng turned his head and saw the little girl staring at him dazedly, her eyes filled with confusion. He glanced at her without leaving any trace, then looked away.

An Ran suddenly met Mu Xingfeng’s cold eyes, frightened, she averted her gaze and shook her head in frustration.

What was she thinking? How could Mu Xingfeng possibly stand up for her? It had already been clearly stated that day, each would go their own way. Xiao Xiao, not knowing the inside story, developed delusions, how could she herself get confused?

Sure enough, in the afternoon, An Ran was punished again because during the emergency assembly at nap time, her hair tie was missing.

She clearly remembered placing it beside her pillow before she slept, but when she woke up, it was gone. The most unbelievable thing was that all her spare hair ties were also missing.

She had clearly put them in the side pocket of her backpack, and Xiao Xiao had short hair. It was as if the other classmates had prearranged it, all bowing their heads, organizing their things. When she asked two classmates, they both said they only had one hair tie. An Ran didn’t have time to look more carefully, so she had to run to the courtyard with the others to gather.

Mu Xingfeng’s cold eyes swept across the team, finally landing on An Ran.

It was his first time seeing An Ran with her hair down. The girl’s smooth long hair cascading over her shoulders added a touch of delicate charm, but she felt a bit uneasy under his gaze.

"An Ran, step forward." The cold voice had no fluctuation.

"Here," An Ran responded, stepping out. At that moment, she clearly saw the look of pride on Guo Xinyi’s face next to her.

Last night, she and Sun Beibei were on duty, and her bed was next to Sun Beibei’s. How could her hair tie disappear without a trace? If it wasn’t for Sun Beibei and Guo Xinyi’s mischief, she wouldn’t believe it even if beaten to death.

But she had no evidence, so now she could only take one step at a time.

"What’s with your hair?" Mu Xingfeng asked, trying to make his voice less cold, but he still noticed the girl’s body tremble slightly.

"Mu... Mu Instructor, I couldn’t find my hair tie." An Ran lowered her head, like a student caught doing something wrong.

Mu Xingfeng felt a tinge of sympathy for An Ran, but as a qualified team member, An Ran’s behavior clearly couldn’t be ignored.

"That’s not a reason. You have three minutes to figure out a solution." Mu Xingfeng said without any expression, in an official tone.

Three minutes, what could she do? She had already looked for it in the dormitory and borrowed from others. Staring at Mu Xingfeng’s sullen face, and hearing the proud voices of Guo Xinyi and Sun Beibei behind her, although not loud, it spurred An Ran.

It’s just hair, right? At worst, she’d cut it short like Xiao Xiao.

When An Ran raised her head to look at Mu Xingfeng again, her eyes carried a hint of determination: "Mu Instructor, can I borrow a pair of scissors?"

Mu Xingfeng slightly frowned. Scissors? This girl wouldn’t want to cut her hair, would she? Looking at her jet-black, silky long hair, Mu Xingfeng furrowed his brows.

"No," Mu Xingfeng said calmly and looked at his watch: "You have two minutes left."
