Young Master Mo’s Gentle Kiss: Wife, Won’t You Accept It? - Chapter 55

Chapter 55: Why Being a Bodyguard Since He Had Such High IQ?

Chi Huan had covered half of her face with the scarf. Although she didn’t wear sunglasses, she had picked a black frame with no lenses and wore it. She also braided her hair into a bun and put down some of her bangs.

The manager soon arrived.

Those who worked in the luxury industry had enough judgement as long as they had some experience. Not to mention that everything Chi Huan was wearing, from her scarf to her shoes, and the way she was behaving, was evidence that she was not an ordinary person.

The manager already knew what had happened from other people. The manager was in his forties and put on a smile. “Young Miss and Mister, I’m really sorry. Little Sun is new here. She’s not experienced. I apologize to you for her behavior. She will be punished. The products you wanted will be packaged soon.”

After saying that, the manager criticized the saleswoman Sun in face of them.

Chi Huan put her fair and clean hand, with nicely trimmed nails, on the glass counter. She smiled lightly. “Fine. I’ll let it go if she packs the lipsticks I chose nicely.”

Sun Jing looked at Chi Huan and almost coughed out blood in anger.

Let it go?

The manager was relieved when he saw that Chi Huan was willing to let it pass peacefully but when he turned around, he saw that Sun Jing staring at them fiercely as if there were flames coming out of her eyes.

The manager roared quietly at her, “Why are you still here? Don’t you want this job?”

Sun Jing was a senior student. She was too young to have learnt to control her temper and she hated losing face. Her face turned red out of anger and she yelled, “I don’t care! What’s the big deal!”

With that, she turned to look at Chi Huan and suddenly reached out her hand to pull off Chi Huan’s scarf. In the meantime, she mocked, “As a woman, who can take a man away from his fiancée whom he grew up with, and who can make said man spend so much money on her, you should be gorgeous. Can’t you show your face to others? Why are you covering yourself?”

Chi Huan did not expect the woman to make this move, and she was shocked for a second.

She didn’t check the Internet these days, but she could just imagine the big headlines she had made. If something happened here, then…

However, before Sun Jing’s hand could touch Chi Huan’s scarf, the man had already swiftly snatched her wrist.

At the same time, Chi Huan was pulled back into the man’s arms.

Mo Shiqian’s pretty eyes and brows looked cold. He pursed his thin lips and said indifferently, “Miss Sun, even if Manyue dumped Tang Yueze to be with me, Tang Yueze would not be interested in you. Why bother being a mean person and losing your job?”

Sun Jing was shocked and her eyes opened wide. Her lips trembled. “What did you just say?”

The man didn’t pay any attention to her anymore. He looked up at the manager and told him calmly the nineteen colors that Chi Huan wanted. “Since the employee is useless, Mr. Manager, would you mind packing them yourself?”

The manager didn’t react for a while.

Even if he reacted, it was impossible for him to remember everything Mo Shiqian had just said.

The manager was very awkward. “Yes… but could you please repeat them again?”

Mo Shiqian frowned and seemed displeased but he didn’t complain and just repeated what he said again.

Chi Huan was very surprised. “Are they everything that I chose?”

Besides those that she liked very much, she actually wouldn’t be able to repeat the other ones that she had just chosen.

And… was he really listening to her and watching her when she chose those lipsticks?

The man lowered his eyes and looked at her. “Which one isn’t the one that you wanted?”

She opened her mouth a little. “No. You have a good memory.”

She remembered the day when she asked him to buy a lot of different foods for breakfast… She herself couldn’t even remember what she had ordered, so she didn’t notice if he had bought her what she had asked for.

Now when she thought about it… he probably did buy everything that she ordered that morning.

Was this the so-called… photographic memory spoken about in the legends?

Mo Shiqian glimpsed at her. “Do you think this is a novel?”

Chi Huan curled her lips. No. She just didn’t understand why he would bother being her bodyguard since he had such a high IQ.

With the help of the other shop assistants, the manager found all of the colors that Chi Huan wanted. He packed them and then handed the packed box to Chi Huan with both hands. “Miss Chi, you are welcome to shop here next time. I promise that something like what happened today won’t happen again.”

This couple, the man and woman, both seemed tough. Being tough was one thing, but the problem was their background. The unreasonably rich second generation would really be bad luck for their business.

Chi Huan took the package and the man paid without saying a word.

While taking back his card, he asked her lightly, “What else do you want to buy?”

Chi Huan gave it some thought and answered, “I need to buy some clothes.”

“Okay.”

Clothes shopping wasn’t as simple as buying makeup and skincare products, because for the latter, she just needed to buy what she used at home and she didn’t have to compare them with other products… As for clothes, she couldn’t buy the exact same pieces.

Chi Huan went through the clothes and asked casually, “What’s the relationship between that woman and you?”

“She’s Manyue’s roommate.”

“Oh…” She sounded like she was just asking a simple and casual question. “When did you break up with your ex?”

“That morning when you were taking a shower.”

She squeezed the sleeves of the clothes that she was selecting and looked up at him. “Am I the mistress?”

“No.”

“What if I made you go to jail that morning instead of asking you to be with me?”

“I would break up with her anyway because of what had happened that night.”

A moment of silence later, Chi Huan asked again, “What if nothing happened that night?”

The man looked at her with his dark eyes and said in a low but calm tone, “There’s no ‘if’. What happened that night was not your fault. I broke up with her only because she didn’t love me enough and neither did I love her enough. Maybe we could make do with it, but our relationship could not afford any accidents, but it’s also not the accident that is to be blamed.”

Chi Huan looked at his pretty face. “Then do you feel guilty?”

He barely hesitated and answered her frankly, “No.”

“Oh.”

Once Chi Huan started buying clothes, she couldn’t stop. She had planned to buy two or three outfits but soon she was so into it that she couldn’t stop. Mo Shiqian had no expression on his face because of boredom, but he wasn’t impatient or hurrying her.

This kind of waiting wasn’t new to him. He had experienced it a lot when he was her bodyguard but at that time, the only thing he needed to do was to follow her around. However, now he had to pay as well.

When it was noon, the Young Miss was finally hungry.

She pouted her rouged lips. “I’m starving. Let’s have lunch.”

“What do you want to eat?”

“There’s a seafood restaurant on the seventh floor. I eat there with Youran quite often, so let’s have lunch there.”

The man had no other opinions. “Okay.”

Just as they turned around, a voice of a young woman rang out behind them. “Shiqian.”

Chi Huan stopped and turned around. Then she saw two women standing side by side in front of them. The one who spoke was Liang Manyue, who was looking at the man standing beside Chi Huan.

Chi Huan didn’t have much of an impression of Liang Manyue. She had only met her once at the Nineteen-Ninety-Nine.

She only remembered that she was delicate and pretty, and even a little unsophisticated.

“Can we talk?”
