Downstairs.
Fang Mo’er was not expecting to smell the delicious aroma of rice.
She had never expected Mu Chen to know how to cook. In the original book, Mu Chen had never entered the kitchen and there had never been any mention of him having such a skill.
“Mo’er, it’s ready.”
After a long wait, Fang Mo’er finally stood up and walked into the dining room.
‘There were four dishes and a soup in front of her. She could tell that Mu Chen had put in a lot of effort.
Mu Chen had been staring into Fang Mo’er’s eyes the whole time. When he noticed a hint of surprise in Fang Mo’er’s eyes, he immediately smiled and said, “I remembered that these dishes were all of your specialties. I wanted to make them for you at least once before I went abroad.”
Fang Mo’er was stunned. It tuned out that when her original character had been pursuing Mu Chen, she had often cooked for Mu Chen personally.
However, in the books, Mu Chen had only been a snake who was pretending with her. On the surface, he had praised her, but when her original character was not paying attention, he would throw away all the dishes.
The feelings in Fang Mo’er’s heart were very complicated.
She had never expected to be able to eat a bite of Mu Chen’s cooking for her original character in her lifetime.
Mu Chen had been gawking at Fang Mo’er as he enjoyed this rare reunion.
Although he felt a little depressed when he thought about how he was about to leave the country and was reluctant to leave, he was leaving in order to return as an improved person, wasn’t he?
Feeling touched by his feelings of infatuation, he was immersed in the sad atmosphere of leaving.
The butler came in and said respectfully, “Second Master, there’s an Assistant Yu outside. He said he’s here to pick up Miss Fang.”
Fang Mo’er blinked her eyes and turned to look at the butler in surprise. How had Assistant Yu known that she was here?
However, Fang Mo’er also felt that there was no need to stay with Mu Chen for too long. She had only intended on having a meal, so naturally, she put down her chopsticks and took out a piece of tissue to wipe her hands.
When Mu Chen saw that Fang Mo’er was about to leave, the reluctance in his eyes became even stronger. Just as he was about to urge her to stay, Fang Mo’er stood up.
Mu Chen looked at her with a helpless and complicated expression. “Do you have something urgent to do?”
Fang Mo’er shrugged. “My boyfriend is looking for me.”
Mu Chen’s eyes dimmed when he heard that. He could only take his time to send Fang Mo’er out.
Outside, Assistant Yu got out of the car and opened the door for Fang Mo’er.
After Fang Mo’er had gotten into the car, the car quickly left as Mu Chen clenched his fists tightly.
In the car, Fang Mo’er looked in surprise at Assistant Yu who was driving. “Why are you here?”
Assistant Yu frowned and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Miss Fang, Mr. Shi asked me to come over and pick you up.”
Fang Mo’er was even more surprised. “Isn’t he on a business trip?”
Her words seemed to be very self-righteous as if she did not feel any embarrassment from being caught secretly meeting her ex-boyfriend.
Assistant Yu looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, causing Fang Mo’er’s heart to sink.
“Miss Fang, Sir wanted to give you a surprise, so he didn’t go on a business trip.”
Looking at Assistant Yu’s troubled expression, Fang Mo’er felt that Shi Mo must have misunderstood something and immediately felt uneasy.
‘When they reached the hotel near the film studio, Fang Mo’er entered the presidential suite and saw Shi Mo sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed. He looked extremely serious.
There was an iPad on the table in front of him with a photo displayed on it.
It was Fang Mo’er with her head lowered, wearing sunglasses and getting into Mu Chen’s car.
The photo was very clear.
Anyone could tell that this was definitely Fang Mo’er and that it could not have been photoshopped.
Fang Mo’er walked over and noticed the photo on the table. She asked in surprise, “What’s going on?”
Shi Mo’s gloomy eyes rolled as he said in a deep voice, “The company’s platform intercepted the photo of you and Mu Chen. How could you be so careless?”
He did not seem to have any intention of blaming Fang Mo’er for getting into another man’s car. Instead, he was worried that she would start a scandal.
Fang Mo’er sighed helplessly and sat down beside Shi Mo. She hugged his arm and said, “I didn’t expect to be photographed either. These paparazzi are everywhere too. It’s so annoying.”
Shi Mo frowned and patted her hand. He said in a low voice, “Why were you at the Mu Residence?”
Fang Mo’er stared into Shi Mo’s eyes but did not notice any suspicion. She had not expected the man in front of her to be so calm.
However, Fang Mo’er could clearly feel that Shi Mo did not move a muscle as he waited for her answer. It was as if he was frozen in place. It was obvious that he was very concerned about her answer..
