Even though he moved swiftly, even though he was still wearing glasses, and even though his face remained as impassive as ever, Mo Weiyi still detected a momentary flash of evasion in his eyes.
“Xiaobai, are you actually jealous?” Mo Weiyi questioned, hardly able to believe it.
This man, who always seemed aloof and uninterested in the affairs of others, who only showed his true colors when she relentlessly clung to him, was now… Feeling jealous?
Xiao Yebai picked up his teacup and elegantly took a sip.
“Xiaobai,” Mo Weiyi grinned at him, “the water is cold.”
They had returned to their old residence for these past few days and all the household staff were on holiday, she wasn’t sure how long that water had been there.
Xiao Yebai gave her a look, “What’s actually going on?”
Facing her warm, radiant face which was sweet as the sun, his expression remained inscrutable and unaffected, his voice was as well.
Mo Weiyi continued to innocently hang onto this man’s arm, tilting her face and gazing up at him from below, “Don’t worry, Chu Xiuhuang is just a scoundrel. Remember when I was almost engaged to him, only to break it off? He probably still harbors resentment towards me for that, ha ha ha.”
“So what’s the story with the watch?”
Mo Weiyi’s smile began to strain.
Has he not given up on this topic yet?
Looking at his emotionless handsome face, Mo Weiyi sighed and felt compelled to say, “I saw a watch that I liked and wanted to buy it as a holiday gift for you. But that day I forgot my card, and Chu Xiuhuang offered to buy it for me. Of course, I refused, but he still had it delivered to our villa.”
Worried that Xiao Yebai might not believe her, Mo Weiyi raised her little hand, “I promise, as soon as I saw that watch arrive, I immediately sent it back to the Chu Family’s house by courier, and even had the courier suggest it was a birthday gift from Chu Xiuhuang for the old man.”
Xiao Yebai looked at her, “Why would he buy it for you?”
“Maybe,” Mo Weiyi chuckled, “He has too much money and doesn’t know what to do with it.”
Having said that, she immediately clung to him again, “Xiaobai, don’t worry. I really have no feelings for him. Even back then, I only agreed to engage with him to purposely make you angry.”
Xiao Yebai gazed at her fixedly, his eyes behind the glasses were deep and inscrutable.
Then, he lowered his head, approaching the charming and sweet woman beside him.
Suddenly, they were very close.
Looking into her clear and beautiful eyes, he suddenly spoke, “Weiyi.”
“Huh?”
“Do you love me?”
The man’s voice was too close, deep, rich, and magnetic – utterly enchanting.
Blurred by his charm, Mo Weiyi lost rationality and instinctively responded in a soft and sweet tone, “Of course, I love you. You’re the one I love most, Xiaobai.”
A faint smile appeared on Xiao Yebai’s thin lips.
It was fleeting.

After all these happenings, by the time they returned to their old residence in the evening, it was just before dinner. Mo Weiyi had also changed into new clothes.
She wore a high-collared dress that she tied up to the neck, with a touch of vintage European court style. Paired with orange-red lipstick and a delicate little lambskin handbag she was holding, she looked chic and vibrant.
Upon entering the dining room, to her surprise, she saw the woman she disliked the most… Qu Yunyao was sitting right there.
Mo Yaoxiong explained, “After hearing about your aunt’s sudden car accident, Yunyao rushed back immediately.”
“Is that so?” Mo Weiyi responded indifferently and removed her scarf before sitting down..
