The snow that year came too early and was extremely heavy.
Yao Tiao and Ji Sichen had invited Ye Erruo over that day for some hotpot.
Ye Erruo only got out of bed around noon. The warm covers made it hard for her to rise.
Mo Jiangye had also been lazing around on the bed with her until then.
“Yao Tiao invited us to a hotpot with them. Get up quickly.” She pulled his arm and hauled him up and out of the covers.
In the end, he pulled her into his embrace instead of keeping her at arm’s strength.
“What are you doing?” she asked.
“Baby Ruo, let’s get married,” he said gently next to her ear.
“Let’s get married! Let’s get married!” Ye Erruo pushed him away.
If she did not get up soon, Yao Tiao was going to get anxious from waiting.
The man’s lips curled into a smile. “Okay.”
“You are becoming more and more like an incapable ruler. You’re not going to the company, you are not having any meetings, and you are not meeting any clients!” Instead, Bo Yu was the one running back and forth. She hadn’t seen him in several days.
“Who should I blame for this?”
Wasn’t he doing this so that he could spend a little more time with her and accompany her every day?
Instead, she was finding him disdainful?
This little thing lacked a conscience!
“So are you going or not? If you aren’t, I am going to go by myself.”
“I’m going.”
“Then you’ll have to change. Yao Tiao is meeting me at around 2. We are going to be late.”
“Okay,” he answered. However, he still lay in the same spot without moving.
“Mo Jiangye!”
“Let’s wait a little longer. Ten minutes.”
“No. We are going to be late. We should be leaving now.”
“Five minutes.”
“We can’t. We are already late. They will get anxious from waiting.”
“They won’t. Why don’t we stay home? Let’s not go.”
“You…”
What a lowlife!
“Mo Jiangye, if you do not want to have hotpot, I will go by myself. You can stay at home alone.”
Upon saying that, Ye Erruo ignored the lazy bum on the bed and pretended to leave.
“There’s no way you can leave me at home alone.”
Several minutes later, Mo Jiangye lifted her up and took her to wash up. He personally dressed her and wrapped her tightly with a scarf before holding her hand and walking out the door.
When the doors to the Zhuang Ge Residence opened, two black cars stopped at a spot not far from them.
“Young Master, they are Old Master Lin’s people,” the driver said.
“Let’s go!”
“Yes, sir.”
Then, the two black cars followed them. Ever since Mo Jiangye had returned the family seal to Old Master Lin, the old man had sent people every day to the Zhuang Ge Residence, thinking of all sorts of ways to meet Mo Jiangye.
Su Qing Ning stuck even more to Old Master Lin’s side and continuously revealed negative news about Ye Erruo.
“Have a taste of this and see if it’s delicious.” Ye Erruo took the bottle on the side and gave it to Mo Jiangye.
“What is it?”
“Drink it.”
Mo Jiangye took the thermal flask. When he opened the cap, a thick aroma seeped out of the bottle.
“Chicken soup? Did you cook it?”
“This is my first time brewing it. The taste should be fine.” She had gotten up at around 6 am to cook this black chicken soup before climbing back into the covers to laze around with him.
“Why are you treating me so nicely?” He smiled gently. Recently, she had been thinking of all sorts of ways to please him. She had cooked different kinds of food and even knitted matching scarves for him and herself.
How could he bear to leave adorable Baby Ruo alone at home while he went off to do other things? How could he afford to be distracted by other matters?
He loved that every second he spent with her was as sweet as if he was dreaming.
Ye Erruo sat beside him. “How’s the taste?”
“It’s delicious.”
It was naturally delicious since it had been personally cooked by her.
