He frowned and prepared to stand up.
Chi Huan didn't react as he sat in his seat. Instead, he raised his hand and poured himself a glass of water.
Mo Xigu saw her out of the corner of his eye, and paused in his movement to stand up. He looked at the woman opposite with a complicated expression, "Aren't you afraid of a scandal?"
"It's not just about having a meal together. At most, it seems that you and I are getting back together. As time goes by, no one will say anything about my relationship with you."
She took a sip of water, "But if this kind of scandal spreads, Miss Su may misunderstand it, so you can just let others suppress it."
He looked at her faint eyebrows and agreed with a hum.
He didn't speak, so she didn't say much. She ordered her meal and ate quietly. There was very little conversation throughout the process. Chi Huan actually didn't quite understand why he asked her out specifically.
But all she had to do was give the ring back to him.
When paying the bill, Mo Xigu saw Chi Huan take out his wallet from his bag and handed over his bank card first, "I invited you out, please."
"Oh," Chi Huan glanced at him and didn't argue, "Okay then."
After paying the bill, he asked again, "Don't you ask Mo Shiqian to come pick you up?"
"I drove here myself."
He looked at her side face and said almost without thinking, "Then I'll give it to you."
Chi Huan glanced at him, smiled, then put on his sunglasses, "No need."
After saying that, she turned around, but before she could take a step, a man and a woman were blocking her way.
It's Tang Yueze and Liang Manyue.
Liang Manyue frowned and looked at her, with a clear questioning tone in her tone, "Miss Chi, are you going out to eat with your ex-boyfriend?"
Chi Huan knew from the look on her face that she had probably put on a cuckold for Mo Shiqian in her heart, and she even had a feeling... that it was indeed the case.
Chi Huan's eyes swept over them, a slightly polite smile appeared on his red lips, "You two enjoy your meal."
After saying that, he walked past them without looking back.
… …
Six o'clock in the evening.
When Mo Shiqian arrived at the famous residence No. 10, Chi Huan was watching a movie in the living room with his iPad.
While unbuttoning his windbreaker, he asked, "Have you finished dinner?"
The woman raised her head, confused, "Where should I go for dinner?"
Mo Shiqian raised his eyebrows slightly, "Didn't the Chi family's servant cook for you?"
She stared at him with clear black and white eyes, "I've been waiting for you to come back and cook."
Mo Shiqian, “…”
He twitched his thin lips and looked at her amusedly, "When did you acquiesce... that I have to cook?"
Her eyes widened, "Isn't it you who has been doing this these past few days?"
Mo Shiqian looked at the woman on the sofa.
Look at how natural she is.
No matter how long it takes to spoil a woman, it doesn't even take a week.
The man said calmly, "You were not feeling well those days, so I made an exception and cooked."
"Then you won't cook anymore?"
"Chi Huan, you have the Chi family's servants and hourly workers at your disposal."
She bit her lip, still feeling aggrieved.
She didn't want to boss him around, she just thought his cooking was delicious.
When the servant asked her if she wanted to prepare dinner, she just asked her to buy the ingredients and sent him away.
I wanted to act coquettishly, but then I thought about how she was still having a tantrum.
She sat on the sofa and looked at the man who had taken off his windbreaker. His features were handsome and plain, and the more she looked at him, the more indifferent he became.
Chi Huanlao felt that he had treated her badly after last night.
When she said she wanted to leave, he sent her back without cooking anything for her to eat!
She stood up from the sofa with her iPad in her arms without saying a word, walked to the study without looking back, closed the door, and felt very hungry not long after sitting on the office chair.
She didn't eat much at noon with Mo Xigu.
I touched my stomach and wanted to order takeout, but my phone was left on the sofa, so I could only use my tablet to make calls.
She didn't hear any movement outside since she came in and closed the door.
After hanging up the phone, she lay on the desk waiting for takeout, and was not in the mood to watch any more movies.
About half an hour later, the doorbell rang, and she got up to open the door to pick up the takeaway.
She turned around with the lunch box in her arms, wondering if the man had left. As soon as she turned around, a tall figure blocked her way, and before she could react, the lunch box in her hand was taken away.
Then a beautiful parabola was thrown directly into the trash basket.
Chi Huan opened his eyes wide and looked at him almost in disbelief, "Mo Shiqian, what are you doing?"
He actually threw away her lunch box
The man said calmly, "I'm already doing it."
"Then you can't throw away my takeaway!"
He raised his eyebrows and asked calmly, "Otherwise, are you going to throw mine away?"
"You said you don't cook."
"Well, today is an exception, and it will never be the same next time."
Chi Huan looked at him like this, why did she feel... so angry
"Who says I can't throw it away from you, just in case the takeout tastes better."
He said calmly, "If you throw it away from me, I will never cook for you again."
Chi Huan, "..."
Thinking she is rare
She was so annoyed that the man didn't seem to have much of a reaction. He just touched her head and said, "Go and watch your movie. I'll call you when you're done."
After that, he turned around and walked back to the kitchen.
Chi Huan naturally returned to the kitchen.
She held up her iPad again and continued to watch half of the movie she had watched before.
At about the end of ten minutes, the man knocked on the door and came in, "Okay, let's go eat."
Chi Huan stared at the screen without moving his eyes, pursed his lips and said, "I'll eat it after watching it."
Mo Shiqian stood at the door and looked at her for a while, "Dinner is on the table, I'll go back first."
She was still looking at the screen.
She waited until the apartment became completely quiet and the ending song of the movie started to play before she lay down on the table.
She didn't even know what she was feeling upset about.
After lying down for about five minutes, she got up and went to the restaurant.
Three dishes, one meat, one vegetable and one soup, were neatly placed on the dining table. The rice and chopsticks were also set. There was still a bit of heat, and the invisible but aroma of the dishes wafted into the sense of smell.
After standing for a few seconds, she walked over and picked up the chopsticks.
After all, I'm hungry.
… …
The next day, Chi Huan was going to attend the cocktail party that Sister Yao had mentioned. It would only be held in the evening.
After she washed up in the morning, she received a call from Mo Shiqian.
"I'm going to a friend's birthday party tonight, so I probably won't go to your place."
She bit her lip and wouldn't come if she didn't come.
"knew."
"Well, I'll go find you tomorrow. If you need anything, call me."
"knew."
After another moment of silence, the man said, "Goodbye then."
Chi Huan felt that she was angry when she heard his voice. After he said these two words, she cut off the phone without telling him that she was going to a cocktail party tonight.
