Chapter 173 - 173: 172 Who let you tell her?
Even though the person she was trying to tempt wasn’t Little Liu, she still put on a pitiable facade, hoping Little Liu would be moved, call MO Xiuchen, and urge him to finish entertaining his client and come to her house.
“No need, there’s a cup here.”
Before she finished speaking, Little Liu had already walked up to the table, picked up the cup of water, and started draining its contents.
Cheng Jia’s face changed, the words coming out almost instinctively, “No, you can’t drink that water, it’s prepared for Young Master Mo.”
She rushed over, but it was too late.
Little Liu had already finished the whole cup of water, with just an empty cup left in his hand. Looking at Cheng Jia’s strange expression, he commented nonchalantly, “It was just a cup of water, why are you so nervous? You didn’t put poison in it, planning to kill our young master, did you?”
“Of course not.”
Cheng Jia denied unhappily, grabbing the cup out of his hand, tried to rush him out, “You’ve had your water, hurry up and leave. It wouldn’t look good if Young Master MO came and found us both in this room.”
Little Liu frowned, his face showing dissatisfaction. Instead of leaving, he sat down at the table looking at the exquisite dishes, “The young master told me to wait for him here. I don’t dare to leave before he arrives. Cheng Jia, did you make these dishes yourself? Seems like, your cooking is not too bad.”
Cheng Jia felt a little anxious inside, but had no way of dealing with Little Liu. She had no choice but to humor him by answering his question, ‘Yes, I made these dishes for Young Master Mo. Little Liu, could you check on Young Master MO and see if he’s finished with his client? These dishes will taste worse when they get cold.”
In fact, the dishes were already cold.
Little Liu knew she wanted him to leave. He also wanted to leave, but he didn’t dare disobey the young master’s order.
The moment he entered Cheng Jia’s home, he smelled the thick fragrance of perfume. The smell wasn’t unpleasant. The perfume was quite expensive, and it felt comforting when he sniffed it.
One thing the young master was right about, Cheng Jia was indeed a beauty, with a good figure as well. Especially tonight, her sexy red dress outlined her exquisite figure, paired with a heart-stirring perfume, he found himself slightly intoxicated.
Little Liu frowned, and answered out of the blue, “Cheng Jia, although your perfume smells nice, the young master dislikes perfume the most. You better get rid of the scent quickly, otherwise the young master will be angry when he comes.”
A flicker of surprise flashed in Cheng Jia’s eyes. MO Xiuchen dislikes perfume?
How did she not know that? Moreover, she used perfume regularly, and Young Master MO didn’t seem to mind it at all.
Seeing that she didn’t believe him, Little Liu frowned, and said unhappily, “If you don’t believe me, I can call the young master right now and inform him that you’ve filled the whole house with perfume. Let’s see if he still comes.”
Seeing that he was reaching into his pocket to grab his phone, Cheng Jia quickly came forward and grabbed his hand, “Don’t call Young Master MO, I’ll figure out a way to get rid of the perfume scent now.”
She had actually drunk some water before Little Liu, and while they were talking for those few minutes, the drugs gradually started to take effect. She felt slightly dizzy and a hot sensation stirred inside her.
At this moment, standing next to Little Liu and holding his hand, she felt not only not disgusted, but also comfortable.
She was taken aback, realizing this was due to the effect of the drugs. If this continued, even if she could control herself, Little Liu might not be able to resist her.
Downstairs, MO Xiuchen heard Cheng Jia and Little Liu exchanging words upstairs. The smile on his lips deepened bit by bit. If he hadn’t guessed wrong, the real drama was about to begin soon.
Considering Cheng Jia’s usual modus operandi, she was relentless even towards him, she wouldn’t just spray perfume in the room, but also add some drugs, just like before.
In the darkness, a luxurious car slowly approached, stopping behind the commercial vehicle.
A moment later, someone knocked on the car door.
MO Xiuchen opened the car door and saw Luo Haofeng’s grinning face. Before MO Xiuchen could say anything, Luo Haofeng spoke first, “MO Xiuchen, Wen Ran was worried about you and asked me to come over and see. Has Little Liu gone up? How is it going now? You’re not eavesdropping on them, are you?” His peach blossom eyes glanced at the Bluetooth earpiece on MO Xiuchen’s left ear. He bent down and sat in the car.
“Who told you to tell Wen Ran?”
MO Xiuchen’s gaze changed, he stared intensely at Luo Haofeng, who had just entered the car. This guy truly was a troublemaker. Last time at the hospital, he told Cheng Jia that the person who ordered the construction workers was Wen Ran, and went as far as stating that he and Wen Ran wouldn’t last.
He really enjoyed stirring up trouble!
Luo Haofeng laughed, not caring about MO Xiuchen’s anger, took the Bluetooth earpiece and put it on his own ear. After a moment, a wicked smile spread across his face, “MO Xiuchen, Little Liu is going to be lucky tonight, I didn’t expect him, usually a humble guy, could handle Cheng Jia.”
MO Xiuchen sneered, “If you’re envious, you can also go up.”
At MO Xiuchen’s words, Luo Haofeng twitched the corner of his mouth and looked at him obliquely. “You and Wen Ran are truly a match. You think I, a man of such handsome and refreshing elegance, would suit Cheng Jia?” MO Xiuchen’s eyes narrowed slightly, catching the key part of his words, “How
did Wen Ran describe you?
While listening to the progress upstairs, Luo Haofeng said with a grin, “She said the same things as you. Originally, I was trying to make her jealous, which is beneficial for physical and mental health. But I didn’t expect her to completely trust you. I really don’t know whether Wen Ran is stupid or just naive to not get angry when her husband goes to another woman.”
In the end, Luo Haofeng even made a couple of disapproving clicking noises.
The coldness at the corners of MO Xiuchen’s mouth faded, warmth flickered in his eyes. Unconsciously, a smile appeared on his face. Wen Ran had promised to trust him, so naturally, she wouldn’t believe Luo Haofeng’s instigations.
“Since you want to watch the drama, then just listen to it till the end here, and tell me the whole process later.”
MO Xiuchen raised his head and looked at the upstairs, then turned to look at the highly focused Luo Haofeng, gave his command and took the car keys from him, opened the car door and got out.
“Hey, do I really have to listen to it all?”
Luo Haofeng yelled at the closing door of the car. Through the car window, MO Xiuchen glanced at him. He walked over to his car, opened the door, sat down, and a moment later, drove off.
“Married men are really boring.”
Luo Haofeng leaned back in the seat, his long fingers tapping the seat unconsciously, muttering boredly. MO Xiuchen wasn’t like this before. In less than two months of marriage, he had become a henpecked husband.
Where was the ruthlessness of the past?
If this continued, he would definitely sacrifice all of his brothers for Wen Ran sooner or later..
