"Uncle, you don’t look too good. Were you entertaining some rich lady?"
The car got onto the highway. She looked out of the window and asked, "Uncle, where are we going?"
"Taking you to dinner." Bo Sishen replied while driving.
"Do we need to get on the highway for dinner?" Mu Shini asked, puzzled.
"Just sit tight and behave. I’ve been busy these past few days and I’m a bit tired from driving." Bo Sishen’s tightly pressed lips curved slightly, and the usual coldness in his eyes softened into a tender gaze as he glanced at her.
Mu Shini responded softly, "Oh..."
She immediately shut her mouth and stopped talking.
She realized she’d probably been talking too much.
"Uncle, where are we going for dinner? Do we even need to fly?"
Mu Shini was extremely excited sitting in first class.
But when she looked around, she found Bo Sishen already asleep next to her.
The plane had just taken off, and Bo Sishen was already asleep.
The uncle must be really exhausted.
But even though he had been busy and so tired lately, why did he still insist on flying somewhere else for dinner?
Seeing him asleep, Mu Shini took the neatly folded blanket and gently covered the sleeping man with it.
Mu Shini, feeling a bit tired herself, rested her chin on her hand and gazed at the man’s perpetually handsome profile. He was so good-looking that she couldn’t bear to look away.
Every time she quietly admired his perfect face, Mu Shini thought that Uncle Hei Che must be a work of art left in the human world by the heavens, because otherwise, the heavens were being far too kind to him!
Eventually, while she was still watching his handsome face, she slowly fell asleep.
When the plane landed, Mu Shini suddenly opened her eyes and saw that she now had a blanket over her as well.
She was puzzled for a moment. Then, regaining her composure, she turned and saw the man elegantly sipping wine next to her. "Uncle, when did you wake up?"
"Awake?" Bo Sishen’s voice was somewhat hoarse.
"Mhmm." Mu Shini nodded lightly. Seeing him drink wine, she felt a bit thirsty too. Without thinking, she picked up the wine and poured some into the glass he had just put down.
Bo Sishen watched her obediently pour wine for him, the corners of his lips curling. She was being considerate, knowing to pour wine for him.
But just as he was enjoying the moment, he noticed Mu Shini lifting the glass, ready to drink...
His expression immediately turned serious.
He reached out, grabbed her wrist, and with eyes showing a hint of displeasure, said, "What are you doing?"
"Uncle, I’m thirsty..." Mu Shini replied naturally and then pushed aside Bo Sishen’s hand, "Uncle, please step aside..."
"I drank from that glass." Bo Sishen said flatly.
Mu Shini was momentarily stunned. She looked down at the glass in her hand, then smiled awkwardly and quickly put it down.
She hadn’t noticed that detail.
She was just captivated by how elegantly he drank, which made her want to drink as well...
"Sorry, I didn’t notice..." Mu Shini stuck out her tongue playfully at him.
"Prepare to deplane." Bo Sishen said to her, "Girls shouldn’t be drinking."
"Uncle, I’m an adult! I’m already eighteen, I can drink." Mu Shini said seriously, "I even drank in high school. We would drink beer at gatherings with friends..."
Despite her strict upbringing, she had learned to drink.
"Quit drinking." Bo Sishen said with displeasure, frowning.
"Why? My drinking has nothing to do with you, Uncle!"
Mu Shini frowned and glared at Bo Sishen, "Uncle, you’re always telling me not to do this, not to do that. You sound just like my husband warning me! Except his voice isn’t as pleasant as yours..."
Her husband’s voice was very raspy, like the sound of a saw cutting wood, extremely unpleasant.
"When I say quit, you quit!" Bo Sishen commanded coldly.
