Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off novel Chapter 688

Chapter 688: Chapter 688: The Stubborn Little Female and the Shameless Angel

The winter afternoon was exceptionally quiet inside the main bedroom. Soft, golden sunlight filtered through the windows, casting long, peaceful light across the floor.

Su Qinglan stood in front of the large, bamboo wardrobe, her hands moving rhythmically as she folded the freshly washed winter clothes.

The scent of dried lavender and clean hides filled her senses. With the spiritual plants temporarily taken care of and her children safely playing in the other room, she finally had a quiet moment to organise the household’s heavy winter cloaks and thick blankets.

Click.

The sudden, distinct sound of the heavy wooden door opening broke the silence of the room.

Su Qinglan didn’t turn around immediately, assuming it was one of the cubs or perhaps Shi Feng coming in to help her carry the heavier linens. But before she could even speak, another sharp sound echoed through the quiet space.

Thud. Click.

The door wasn’t just closed; it was explicitly locked from the inside.

Su Qinglan froze, a neat square of fur shawl still held firmly in her hands. A wave of confusion washed over her. Why would anyone lock the bedroom door in the middle of the day?

She slowly turned her head, her eyes widening slightly as she caught sight of the tall, elegant figure leaning casually against the locked doorframe.

It was An Mo.

A shockingly bright, handsome smile was plastered across his face. His swirling golden eyes vibrated with an intense, playful warmth that he usually hid beneath his aristocratic exterior. There was a predatory grace in the way he stood, his dark hair cascading over his shoulders like silk.

"An Mo?" Su Qinglan blinked, her voice filled with genuine surprise. "You’re here? Why did you lock the door?"

An Mo didn’t answer with words right away.

Instead, he let out a low, deeply satisfied hum that vibrated from the depths of his chest. His long legs moved with silence across the floor. In a matter of three long strides, he completely closed the distance between them.

Before Su Qinglan could even lay down the folded fur in her hands, a pair of strong, muscular arms suddenly snaked out from behind her.

Gasped!

With a sudden, powerful pull, An Mo encircled her slender waist and yanked her backwards.

Su Qinglan’s back instantly crashed flush against his broad, solid chest. The sudden impact sent a jolt of heat straight through her winter layers.

"But... what are you doing?" Su Qinglan stammered, her face instantly turning a light shade of pink. She dropped the clothing back onto the cabinet shelf, her small hands automatically coming up to grip his thick forearms, which were locked like iron bands around her waist.
