Mo Chuan reached out and held her hand tightly.
"Sours, sweets, bitters, and spices are all the flavors of life. Don't worry, I will hold your hand tightly in this life and taste the sweets and sorrows of life with you!"
Shen Ning couldn't help but sigh contentedly, burying her head in Mo Chuan's arms, with a sweet smile on her lips.
He actually really understood her thoughts, and it was not in vain that she took such pains to prepare these four dishes.
Speaking of using food as a metaphor for life, she got the inspiration from a book. She had an idea and tried it out. She originally wanted to make a joke with Mo Chuan, but she didn't expect Mo Chuan to be so smart. Not only did he guess her test question correctly, but he also got a perfect score!
What more can a woman ask for when she has such a husband
The two hugged each other and listened to each other's heartbeats, feeling infinite warmth in their hearts.
After a while, Shen Ning left Mo Chuan's arms, pursed her lips, and glanced at Mo Chuan with a smile.
"Is the food I cook better, or is the food in the Queen Mother's Palace better?"
Mo Chuan said slowly: "Do you want to listen to the truth?"
"certainly."
"Of course the food in the mother's harem is delicious," Mo Chuan said truthfully, and then added: "But, I like to eat the food you cook."
He put his arms around her and kissed her on the cheek.
Shen Ning blushed and said angrily: "Glib tongue!"
The smile on her face flashed away, and then she said seriously: "Okay, you are telling the truth, Mo Chuan, I will only ask once, do you really think that Chu Shaoyang is the mastermind behind the theft of the blueprints?"
Mo Chuan had been waiting for her question for a long time. He thought for a moment and shook his head slightly.
"Then do you know where I went today dressed as a eunuch?"
Mo Chuan shook his head again.
"I went to the residence of Li Zhixing, Minister Li. You said that I have the ability to see through people's hearts. Yes, I can indeed infer whether a person is telling the truth or a lie through some small details, so I want to tell you Yes, the real mastermind behind the scenes is not Chu Shaoyang at all, but Li..."
She didn't finish her words because Mo Chuan stretched out his finger and pressed it on her lips to stop her from continuing.
"Shh, Ning'er, you don't need to say it, I know it all." He looked into her eyes tenderly, his dark eyes as unfathomable as cold pools.
"You know? If you knew it was not Chu Shaoyang, why did you still send him to prison? You...why did you do this?"
Shen Ning opened her eyes wide and looked at him in disbelief.
"Of course I have my reasons for doing this."
"What's the reason?" she asked.
"Ning'er, don't ask. There are some things you'd better not know." Mo Chuan stroked her face and said softly: "What I can tell you is that I am definitely not doing this to vent my anger for personal reasons. It’s definitely not because of you, you believe me, I, Mo Chuan, have never made a distinction between public and private affairs.”
Although his voice was soft, his eyes were firm and focused.
Shen Ning suddenly felt that she really couldn't see through him, but she believed every word he said.
"Okay, I won't ask anymore, Mo Chuan, I believe you."
Mo Chuan stretched out his arms to pick her up and walked out of the room.
"Where are you going to carry me?"
"Don't you believe me? I'm going to sell you." He replied with a smile.
Because her words of "believe in him" made him feel elated, and a smile could not help but flow out from the corners of his eyes and brows.
"Are you willing?" She smiled.
"Do you think I'm willing to let it go?" He glared at her.
