âIs it too tight? I donât think so.â Mo Liuxi looked across the table lazily. âGet some pasta for me.â
Yan Su grit her teeth. âDonât you have any hands? Go get some yourself! Iâm taking food for myself.â
âCanât, my hands hurt from writing my thesis,â Mo Liuxi answered her patronizingly.
âDo you think Iâve never written a graduate thesis before?â Yan Su exposed him mercilessly.
Mo Liuxi looked at her coldly before letting out a sigh. âHow can I compare myself to you? Youâre someone who can do it with me a million times and still get up to cook spicy chicken. Youâre no ordinary woman.â
Yan Su was silent.
She could no longer take it and she stepped on his foot grumpily.
Mo Liuxi merely grunted â he refused to let go of her.
Yan Su had no choice but to drag him along as she grabbed food from the table. The two of them were literally inseparable; a sight to behold. When they bumped into Li Ming, he couldnât help but say, âMo Liuxi, can you please be mindful of your surroundings? Look at you... Do you know what you look like? A spineless leech! As a director, you should preserve your image and your dignity. You used to have all of that but you ruined it all tonight!â
âNo big deal. Theyâll know if Iâm dignified or not when they work with me again,â Mo Liuxi said nonchalantly. âIâm only acting this way in front of my woman. We havenât seen each other in two weeks. Youâre an old man in your sunset years â you wouldnât understand what itâs like to be passionately in love.â
Yan Su saw Li Mingâs mustache hairs standing up. She felt bad for him.
âYouâre really an ungrateful brat,â Li Ming said angrily. âYou can do whatever you want behind these closed doors, but donât you dare announce your relationship to the public out of the blue.â
âI wonât,â Mo Liuxi said in a serious tone. âI know where to draw the line.â
âI hope so,â Li Ming said half-heartedly. After taking a few steps away from them, he turned and said to Yan Su, âYan Su, keep this fella in check, will you?â
âDonât worry, Director Li,â Yan Su quickly nodded her head like a parent getting advised.
Before she could look down at the table again, Mo Liuxi lifted her chin with his long, slender fingers and kissed her unceremoniously on her soft luscious lips.
Yan Su could hear gasps around her and she pushed him away with her cheeks blushing. She looked around frantically while everyone was staring at him. âMo Liuxi, you...â
âSweet,â Mo Liuxi circled his arms around her waist again. He then said, âHand it over to me.â
Yan Su was silent.
She didnât catch his drift.
âThe apple.â Mo Liuxi glanced down at the apple in her pocket. âThis is from Shi Xiang, isnât it?â
Yan Su was speechless. She looked over at Shi Xiang who was having a conversation with someone while explaining, âHe gave one to everyone. Do you really have to be so sensitive?â
âI didnât get one.â Mo Liuxi extended his hand sternly. âQuick, donât make me grab it myself.â
Yan Su had no idea how to deal with him when he was acting like a petty bandit.
Mo Liuxi quickly grabbed the apple from her pocket. The apple was bright and red. He said, âLook, although this apple looks nice, you can tell that thereâs wax on it. Itâs not good for your health if you eat it. Shi Xiang is being ridiculous. The evil queen poisoned Snow White with an apple just like this. His intentions are questionable.â
Yan Suâs expression was dark. âYouâre the one who didnât even get me an apple. Will you quit picking on someone else?â
âWho said that I didnât get you one? I was prepared a long time ago, I put it in my pocket. You can feel for it yourself,â Mo Liuxi reminded her as he raised his chin.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
