It had been a tiring day.
To be fair, he had been tired for more than a day.
He got out of bed and made a cup of warm water from the water dispenser in the room. He opened the bedside table and took out a pill. Just as he was about to take it, the door was opened again.
He turned and looked at Lu Manman.
Lu Manman gritted her teeth.
Was Mo Yuanxiu bent on going against her?!
She had casually picked a room, and as she excitedly headed to the bathroom to take a shower after her victory, she realized that she was unable to undo the red gown she was wearing. She could not even see where the buttons were. She was too tired today. She was so tired that she could not even remember how the staff had helped her put it on when she changed into this gown. The crux of the issue was that this gown was of good quality and could not be torn no matter how hard she tried. Instead, it had left her body red and painful. She had searched the entire room but could not find the scissors. At that point, she was so angry she wanted to kill Mo Yuanxiu!
“What are you doing here?” He was shocked for just a second before casually popping a pill into his mouth.
“What are you eating? Are you sick?” She squinted at his casual actions.
“Thanks to your best friend, I have gastric problems.”
Best friend?!
Lu Manman went quiet for a while and then remembered that Gu Xin had given him the ‘sweet, bitter, and spicy’ plate when he was receiving her.
He had tolerated it until now!
But throughout the whole process, she had not felt his discomfort at all.
“You suddenly appeared in my room. Are you planning to exercise your marital status with me?” He chuckled deviously.
“Mo Yuanxiu!!” She seemed to remember her intentions for coming here all of a sudden and fumed, “What kind of lousy gown is this? It doesn’t even have a button or zipper, and I can’t take it off no matter what. Are you planning to let me wear it for the rest of my life?”
“I’ve never met anyone who would throw a tantrum like that just because they can’t remove their clothes. I’ve been thinking. Who’s that legendary gentle and virtuous Lu Manman?” Mo Yuanxiu smiled beautifully.
“Who cares who she is! Get me a pair of scissors now! I want to cut this gown into shreds!” Lu Manman was about to go ballistic from anger.
He was still smiling when he suddenly laughed.
The legendary Lu Manman…
It was just a legend.
Look at that temper of hers!
“Are you sure you want to cut it up?”
“Why not?” Lu Manman said. “I know your gowns are expensive, and the price you’re willing to pay is enough to sustain an ordinary person’s life. But Mo Yuanxiu, it’s not my money, so I don’t care!”
Mo Yuanxiu shrugged, and his thin lips moved. “Come here.”
“What are you doing?”
“I’ll help you remove your clothes,” he said meaningfully.
Lu Manman felt as if she had walked to her own doom.
“I don’t have a pair of scissors. If you want to shower in it and sleep in it, I don’t care,” he said nonchalantly.
She was about to strangle this man to death.
That kick just now had not killed him yet!
“I’m going to take a shower if you don’t come over,” he said as he turned around.
She clenched her teeth and walked angrily toward him, stopping just a step away from him.
He grabbed her shoulders.
