BXBX NOVEL Chapter 31 - 31: What does Young Master MO like to eat?
“Miss Wen, I really do like you…”
Wen Ran hadn’t heard what the bespectacled man was saying because a
familiar silhouette suddenly entered her peripheral vision from the door, causing her eyes to darken abruptly.
At the same time, MO Xiuchen who had just entered, saw Wen Ran two tables away. Seeing her withdraw her hand from the stranger, a sharp glint passed through his deep eyes as he said something to Gu Kai next to him and strode towards her.
“Ranran!”
The bespectacled man’s hand was left empty and he was still excitedly trying to detain Wen Ran. However, his words were suddenly interrupted by a deep voice behind him.
The call of ‘Ranran’ from MO Xiuchen was imbued with a startling tenderness and intimacy, which subtly seeped into the atmosphere, making Wen Ran’s heart skip a beat.
The bespectacled man turned around in astonishment, met by the cold, sharp gaze of MO Xiuchen. The man’s face stiffened as he felt a gust of icy wind pass, and he looked at Wen Ran in confusion.
MO Xiuchen cast a brief glance at the bespectacled man, his deep gaze landed on Wen Ran’s face, and he asked emotionlessly:
“What’s going on?”
Wen Ran could feel the cold aura radiating from him. Guilt flitted through her heart, but she quickly steadied herself and replied lightly, “He is Bai Xiaoxiao’s blind date. You, when did you get back?”
“Bai Xiaoxiao’s blind date?”
MO Xiuchen’s subtly questioning tone was apparent. His impression of Bai Xiaoxiao was rather significant. Seeing Wen Ran glance to the side, he followed her gaze and sure enough, he saw Bai Xiaoxiao seated at a table not far away.
“Miss Wen, who is he?”
Finally recovering his sanity from MO Xiuchen’s cold demeanor, the bespectacled man asked.
“I am her husband.’
Just as Wen Ran was about to answer, MO Xiuchen suddenly reached out, pulling her into his embrace. His large hand wrapped around her slender waist, making Wen Ran’s heart skip a beat, her body stiffened slightly in his palm.
“You’re really married?”
Disappointment flashed in the bespectacled man’s eyes. He pressed his lips together, saying angrily, “It’s really mean to toy with people like this. Bai Xiaoxiao arranged this meeting here. She should pay for half.”
After saying this, the bespectacled man took out his share of the money from his wallet and threw it on the table, snorted coldly, and then left in a huff.
Wen Ran watched in disbelief as the bespectacled man made his exit. What kind of a jerk had Bai Xiaoxiao found?
At her side, MO Xiuchen released her, elegantly took out his wallet from his pocket, paid the remaining half, turned his gaze to Gu Kai and Cheng Jia, who had taken their seats, and said to Wen Ran, “Let’s go.”
…Oh.
Feeling disoriented, Wen Ran blinked and remembering that he was not alone, quickly nodded, and followed him out.
Gu Kai and Cheng Jia were seated in the middle of the hall. Gu Kai was perusing the menu, while Cheng Jia next to him kept her gaze fixed in MO Xiuchen’s direction. Seeing him put his arm around Wen Ran’s waist, jealousy flashed in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
“Miss Cheng, what would you like to eat?”
Gu Kai put down the menu, turned to ask Cheng Jia, noticing she was looking towards the front. He followed her gaze to see MO Xiuchen and Wen Ran standing together, narrowed his eyes, and handed her the menu.
“Anything is fine.”
Cheng Jia smiled politely, taking the menu and casually asked, “What does
Young Master MO like to eat?”
Gu Kai leaned back into the chair, his tone lazy but decisive, “You don’t need to worry about him, just order what you like..
