Because the man opposite kept staring at her.
She was just staring at her, she wasn't the kind of person who wouldn't be able to eat anything if she was stared at, but the man's eyes were so piercing that his bones were exposed. In other words, he had such a strong presence that he couldn't ignore her even if he wanted to.
Occasionally she looked up at him, and she would find that the man opposite was cutting the steak slowly and methodically, and eating each bite elegantly, but his eyes were always staring at her, as if nothing had happened, and eerie.
Wen Yi felt that the man was cutting the steak as if she were her.
When chewing slowly, it seemed like he was biting her...
She frowned, took a sip of the red wine on the side, and couldn't help but said in displeasure, "Can you stop staring at me?"
He said calmly, "When a man sees a beautiful woman, he can't help but look at her twice. This is nature."
This man has a serious and smooth tongue...
Moreover, did he just look twice
She said with a straight face, "Don't read it anymore, it will affect my appetite."
Mo Shichen looked at her and laughed softly.
The smile seemed like she said something that made him laugh, so he laughed.
Just as Wen Yi was about to have a fit, the man had already suppressed his smile and said calmly, "Since Miss Wen won't let you watch it, I won't watch it."
After saying that, he really lowered his head.
Wen Yi, "..."
Without the disturbing sight of the man, Wen Yi's appetite has indeed recovered a lot. <>
Ten minutes later, when Mo Shichen came in, his cell phone that had been placed beside the dining table buzzed, and the buzzing sound interrupted the quiet atmosphere that had finally lasted.
Wen Yi subconsciously glanced over after hearing the movement. She didn't know why, but she glanced at the caller ID on the screen.
Thousand Rui.
She put back the beef that was about to reach her mouth. Wen Yi narrowed her eyes and smiled, and said in an emotionless voice to the man who had clicked to answer, "Hang up."
A woman's low and soft voice sounded from the mobile phone Mo Shichen held in his hand, "Li Ru..."
He raised his eyes and met the woman's provocative eyebrows.
"I had someone give you a full body checkup last time. You seemed to be in good health. You don't need me to say the same sentence a second time to understand you?"
The man squinted his eyes, and in his ears was Li Qianrui's anxious voice because he couldn't hear her response, "Li Ru, are you listening... Li Ru?"
He tightened his fingers and finally pressed the call under Wen Yi's smiling eyes.
However, before he could put down the phone, Li Qianrui's second call came in.
Mo Shichen looked down at the names flashing on the screen. This time, before Wen Yi could express anything, he had already cut off the call and turned off his phone.
With a "pop" sound, the phone was thrown to the table, making a moderate sound.
Wen Yi, who was cutting steak, looked up at him with a half-smile, "Are you getting angry with me or demonstrating?"
Mo Shichen calmed his breathing and said calmly, "My hands are slippery, I'm sorry. <>"
… …
In the hospital ward.
After Li Qianrui connected the phone but was immediately hung up, she immediately called a few more times, but was hung up first and then turned off.
She knew that even if she continued to call, it would be fruitless, but she still kept calling over and over uncontrollably.
Listening to the sweet customer service voice on the phone repeating, "The number you dialed has been turned off. Please call again later..."
In the end, she held her phone and burst into tears.
When the call was connected for the first time, she seemed to hear Wen Yi's voice, but it might be because of the distance, and the woman's voice was not high, so she didn't hear what Wen Yi said, and she could only confirm that they were staying together now. .
Although even without this phone call, she knew that they stayed together.
Li Qianrui was sobbing and crying, and asked Li's father with tears in her eyes, "Dad, will Li Ru fall in love with his ex-wife again?"
Father Li comforted her, "No, don't worry too much..."
"That's not necessarily true," the nurse who had been silent all this time said suddenly and sarcastically after examining her, "Miss Wen is not much better than you in terms of appearance, temperament, and taste. Reality is not an idol drama. How many men would let Bai Fumei go and not have to marry a Cinderella..."
"Besides," the nurse lady glanced sideways at Li Qianrui's red eyes and chin that was shaking with anger, "Is he divorced? What kind of ex-wife is he? That's his wife. I've seen a mistress, and this is the first time I've seen you. So shameless."
Li Qianrui was extremely angry. <>
This wasn't the first time she'd been sarcastic by a nurse.
Wen Yi bought this hospital, and she bribed all the doctors and nurses here. As long as Li Ru was away, they would humiliate her in every way. Even her attending doctor had a very cold attitude.
… …
In the evening, Wen Yi used her laptop to handle some company matters remotely. At about ten o'clock, she stretched herself, closed her computer and prepared to wash up and go to bed.
During this time, Mo Shichen was sitting on the double sofa nearby. Since he had nothing to do and Wen Yi didn't allow him to go anywhere else, he boredly took the book she had read before and started reading from the first page. .
It's a detective novel, fully in English, and I've read almost two-thirds of it.
Wen Yi stood up and glanced at him, then suddenly spoke and said a few words slowly.
Mo Shichen raised his head, his eyebrows twitching violently. He looked at her silently for a while and then said, "You woman, can you not be so wicked?"
He was passing the time reading a detective novel, and she had to spoil it.
How much hatred
Abandoned by him
"I'm not going to sleep now, lest you feel worried after watching it."
Mo Shichen closed the book and threw it aside. He pinched his eyebrows and calmed down his anger. He asked calmly, "Should I sleep in the second bedroom or in your room?"
Because Wen Yi was standing, she looked at him condescendingly, "Do you know how much this apartment costs per day?"
Mo Shichen tugged his lips, half-smiling, "Yes, I'm so poor and don't deserve a second bed. I can't afford it, so I can only sleep with you."
"I don't need a man to warm my bed today. Why do you want me to sleep with you? I want you to look good?"
Mo Shichen said, "Okay, I'll sleep on the sofa."
Wen Yi said, "No."
He looked at her silently, with a speechless attitude.
She said lazily in a gentle voice, "You are so adaptable, you can sleep on the floor."
Mo Shichen was silent for a while. After a long time, he stood up and patted her cheek gently while breathing soothingly. He smiled gently and said sarcastically, "Miss Wen, you really look like you haven't been touched by a man in many years." An old maid who has been nourished and therefore has a cunning and mean temper."
