“I know,” he mumbled.
How could he have swallowed this if that had been her, really?
She sighed in relief. It was good that he knew. Lin Jingxuan had left an indelible mark on her man’s mind. “Mo Jiangye, I’m your woman. Lin Jingxuan is nothing in my heart. Nothing at all…”
She wanted to reassure him hundreds and thousands of times if needed. She did not want him to live in fear anymore.
“Prove it to me, Baby Ruo.”
Prove it?
What kind of proof did he want?
She had stayed obediently by his side for so many days, proving to him bit by bit who was the only man in her heart.
Perhaps she was still not doing enough, but she had been very obvious about it. Perhaps to him, this was still not enough…
Mo Jiangye stared at her without blinking with a solemn expression, waiting for her to prove it.
After seeing no movement from her after a while, his expression became gradually ugly.
“How do you want me to prove it to you?” Ye Erruo smiled gently.
Mo Jiangye glared at her harshly. How should she prove it? She was asking him about this?
Hadn’t he said that she was his?
Upon realizing that he was ready to explode from anger, Ye Erruo decided to stop teasing him. “Alright, let me prove it to you.”
She stood on her tiptoes…
“That’s it?” The man retorted unhappily.
Was he that easy to coax? Was he so easily swayed?
“How else do you want me to prove it to you?”
Then, she stood on her tiptoes again. “Is this enough?”
“I want many babies. One for every Chinese Zodiac sign,” he said unhappily.
She was speechless. It turned out that he did want her to give birth to kids? At a rate of one kid per year?
“Mo Jiangye, do you think I am a pig?”
“A pig can give birth to a litter with one pregnancy. Can you do that?”
Ye Erruo said nothing.
“I will prove it to you.” She felt a little disappointed and helpless in her heart. He… would never dare to trust her wholeheartedly. This was all because of what she had done in the past. Therefore, she had to bear the consequences.
“Let’s go. The birthday feast is about to begin.”
Despite the people walking about, Ye Erruo was still able to hear every movement clearly. Suddenly, he grabbed her wrist, shocking her.
“What are you doing?”
“Shh!”
He brought her further in. Soon, the noise and music outside sounded far away.
“Mo Jiangye, where are you taking me?”
“Mo Jiangye?”
A few minutes later, Ye Erruo exploded. “The birthday feast is about to begin! Do you still want to attend it or not?”
“Yes,” he responded with one word indifferently.
“We should head back.”
“Mm… Alright.”
“Oh, right. Mo Jiangye, there’s something else I need to tell you.”
“What is it?”
“Someone asked to meet me tomorrow. I do not know if that person is Lin Jingxuan or not, but I know this person has the photos of the woman who looks just like me.” She had thought about it and decided that she had to tell him.
She wanted to go, and he would definitely find out about it. In that case, it was better to tell him earlier to avoid another dispute.
Mo Jiangye stiffened and the atmosphere chilled her to the bone all of a sudden.
“I will go and have a look to find out exactly what he wants. I will be back a little later than usual.”
He lowered his gaze and said unhappily, “Tell me honestly. How many times have you two been in contact?”
“Only twice. He looked for me.”
“Twice? When did that happen?”
“The first time was two nights ago.”
“Why did you only tell me this now?” He was feeling sour all over, as if he had been conquered by jealousy.
Why had she not told him at all about the previous time?
