The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex - Chapter 1325
Chapter 1325: Do I Scare You?
She didn’t respond and instead, she turned and gestured for him to enter.
The door was slammed shut once more.
He wasn’t nervous at all, unlike her, and he was most definitely not afraid.
He Xiyan was extremely nervous and she blushed so furiously that her face felt like it was on fire.
She bit her lips and slowly walked toward the chair that she had been sitting on. She was so nervous that she had only quickly glanced at him before looking away nervously.
Mo Yixuan straightened his clothes and sat beside her. His eyes were like two whirlpools that seemed like they had the power to cause anyone to fall for his charms. He lifted his left hand and he wore an exquisite silver watch on his wrist.
“I’ve received your present,” he said with a smile, revealing his hidden dimples.
She took a deep breath and nodded gently.
She had spent a lot of time mulling over which watch to buy before she finally settled on that particular watch.
Mo Yixuan could tell that she was very nervous from the way she blushed furiously. Her face was as red as an apple.
He suddenly reached out and gave her a gentle pat on the shoulder.
“Do I scare you?” he asked.
He felt as though this girl seemed afraid of him.
He had assumed that she was someone who was very bold.
He had sent that message as a joke and hoped that his message would turn her off him, so he was surprised when she actually checked into a hotel.
She hastily shook her head and she looked extremely embarrassed.
She thought for a moment before she said softly, “Happy birthday!”
Mo Yixuan paused in surprise before he looked at the watch he wore on his wrist. This was the gift she had given him for his birthday.
“Actually…” he said with an apologetic smile, “It isn’t my birthday today.”
She didn’t know how to react and felt very dazed as though a hard object had smashed against her head.
She frowned and looked at Mo Yixuan in confusion.
Mo Yixuan explained, “My mom changed my birthdate on my official household registration documents. I’m born in 1992, on the 27th of the last month of the lunar calendar. According to the Gregorian calendar, this would mean that I was born on the 19th of January.”
Her blush intensified. Yang Mingyu, who was his friend, had told her that Mo Yixuan’s birthday was on the 27th of December, so she mistakenly assumed that it was today and didn’t even stop to think of the possibility that it could’ve been his birth date according to the lunar calendar.
She was at a complete loss for words, so she could awkwardly and said, “I didn’t know!”
Mo Yixuan nodded as he studied her once again.
She looked like a girl-next-door; she didn’t have a good figure and her features wouldn’t be considered beautiful but her eyes were very beautiful. Her eyes were as clear as water, beautiful and full of emotion, as though it was a window to her inner thoughts.
It was said that one should look at the eyes first in order to assess a person and he could see her emotions and thoughts written clearly in her eyes. He knew that she was nervous, afraid, and seemed worried.
He took off the scarf around his neck which was also a gift from her.
He had always kept it.
She had noticed the scarf the moment he entered the room earlier. This was the scarf that she had given him, so she was surprised that he wore it so often.
“Thank you!” Mo Yixuan suddenly stretched out his hand and his hand stopped mid-air for a brief moment before he held her.
