Young Master Mo’s Gentle Kiss: Wife, Won’t You Accept It? - Chapter 59

Chapter 59: Do You Want Me to Like You?

A few seconds later, Chi Huan withdrew her hand and turned her face to look at the man on her side. “Are you allergic to those ingredients?”

Mo Shiqian knew almost everything about her but she didn’t know his eating habits.

He had stayed by her side for three years and yet she didn’t even know that this man actually lived in Xishan Mansion—

That was the most preferred high-end apartment community for when she bought an apartment, but because she was not famous enough and didn’t have many savings at the time, she had to give up and turned instead to No. 10 Residence.

He nodded and said lightly, “I won’t eat them, they’re just seasoning ingredients.”

She then asked, “Anything other than onions and corianders that you are allergic to?”

Mo Shiqian looked down at her.

Her eyes were black and white, and she looked at him frankly, waiting for his answer.

The man’s Adam’s apple rolled, and he said, “Leek, garlic, and mutton, they smell bad.”

Chi Huan nodded and signaled that she understood, without forgetting to comment, “You’re pretty hard to please.”

Mo Shiqian glanced at her.

“Then do you particularly like anything?”

“I’m not a picky eater.”

“Well… okay,” she turned to the waiter and said seriously, “Please don’t put those ingredients in the specialty dishes I ordered, as for the other dishes, you can tell the chef that he can put a little of those ingredients in if he has to, if it’s not necessary, just don’t put any in.”

“Okay, Miss.”

The waiter went out with the menu in hand, then Chi Huan bowed her head to continue drinking her coffee.

Liang Manyue looked at her for a while before asking, “Miss Chi, did you cancel the wedding with Mo Xigu because of your relationship with Shiqian?”

This question was not only abrupt, but also sharp.

Basically, it was equal to asking if Chi Huan had dated Mo Shiqian while she was still with Mo Xigu.

Chi Huan didn’t even blink her eyes and answered simply, “No.”

“Then was it because the wedding with Mo Xigu didn’t go well and you turned to be with Shiqian?”

Chi Huan put the coffee cup down, raised her eyes, and looked straight at her with smiling eyes. “Miss Liang.”

Liang Manyue looked at her and then looked down, lowering her head slightly. “Sorry, I’m being a little rude. I just don’t understand why you two are suddenly together.”

Chi Huan opened her mouth and asked with a smile, “Did you regret it because there’s now another woman beside him?”

This question was actually sharper than Liang Manyue’s. She had no intention of embarrassing Liang Manyue, because she didn’t want to know anything about her current boyfriend’s ex-girlfriend. That might make her look like a jealous woman.

What’s more, they were friends who had grown up together. But like Tang Yueze—she wanted Liang Manyue to see the fact that Mo Shiqian was already with another woman. No matter what reason it was that she and Mo Shiqian ended up being together, they were already together.

She also wanted Miss Liang to see clearly that, since she had given up this man and chosen another, she should give up completely.

Liang Manyue’s lips were clamped together and her hands had curled up into fists. After a while, she said, “I just… Shiqian didn’t date any other woman except for me. Miss Chi, you’re the mayor’s daughter and have been in the entertainment industry for many years. You two are not from the same world. I’m just worried… he’ll get hurt.”

So what if he didn’t date any other women?

She only dated Mo Xigu, and she was dumped before she could even kiss him.

After being dumped by Mo Xigu, at least she lay two or three days in bed with the excuse of feeling sick.

But after he was abandoned by his fiancée, whom he had grown up with for more than ten years, he acted like nothing had happened.

As soon as she had this thought, Chi Huan suddenly felt a chill run down her back. She found that when being with him, she almost only remembered that he took care of her and compromised for her. She often felt from time to time that he was a really good man who was rare to find across the centuries.

So much so that she had even ignored what she herself had said—he was a monster without feelings.

Not to mention…

She guessed that Liang Manyue did not know that he lived in a high-end and expensive apartment complex like Xishan Mansion, which was spacious and well decorated, otherwise she would not say that he was just a bodyguard with a good income.

How deep had he hidden himself that even his own fiancée didn’t know anything real about him?

Him being hurt…

Would Mo Shiqian really be hurt by a woman?

She suddenly felt that she could not imagine it.

Finally, Chi Huan twitched her lips, and her tone became fainter. “That’s how love works, admit defeat for better things. Before the coffin board is fixed, who knows who will give up on whom in this life? Love is love, what is the meaning of fear?”

…

In the evening at Xishan Mansion.

Chi Huan looked at the man who was sitting by her side and giving her a foot massage. His fingers were long and knotted and his face was handsome with a look that was focused.

Doing such a thing didn’t seem humble for him, and he even had an aura that was calm and sexily self-sustaining.

After returning home, she took off her high heels and fell onto the sofa, saying like a spoiled child that she had been shopping for a whole day and that her feet were sore. Thus he began to rub her feet without a word.

She stared at his profile. “Just because you r*ped me… is this the reason you are willing to be so kind to me?”

“No.”

Chi Huan was a little surprised and blinked. “Well… that’s because… you like me?”

Mo Shiqian raised his face. “Do you want me to like you?”

She pursed her lips and denied it almost immediately. “No… I’m just curious.”

The man answered lightly, “Because you are now my woman.”

“Then were you so good to Liang Manyue before?”

“No,” he glanced at her and answered in an orderly manner, “she is more reserved than you and never asked me to rub her feet for her. She would even be embarrassed to take off her socks in front of me.”

Chi Huan, “…”

She said unhappily, “Are you saying that I am not reserved?”

“No,” he smiled faintly after a few seconds of silence, “if you are as reserved as her, you will also feel like I am not good enough to you.”

Chi Huan was stunned.

His face was handsome, and at this moment there wasn’t much coldness and indifference on his face, which made him look gentle.

She said in a drawn out tone, “I know, you won’t take the initiative and you will only give when you’re asked to, but Miss Liang is too reserved and she never asked you for anything.”

Just like at the table today, she had been clamoring that she wanted to eat this and that, she had asked Mo Shiqian to help peel shrimps for her…

Compared to him, Tang Yueze was a proactive man who took the initiative to pursue girls. From time to time, he would pick dishes for Liang Manyue and ask whether she liked to eat this or that.

It was hard to say who was right or who was wrong, whether being reserved was good or being proactive was good. It was just a fit of character.

He gave a faint hum.

Chi Huan stared at his handsome face and asked with her hand supporting her cheek, “I spent a lot of your money today. Is it that if she doesn’t ask you for something, you won’t spend money on her?”

The man asked casually, “Did you spend a lot of money?”

She pouted. “They all think I’m with you for your money, or is it that… you were really stingy with your fiancée before?”

Mo Shiqian glanced at her. “Did you spend more money today than on the watch you bought for me?”

Chi Huan, “…”

The silver wrist watch was worn on the man’s left hand. It was designed in a business, but casual, style and suited him very well.

Well, after all, she was a very tasteful woman.

She said complacently, “You know everything about the items.”
