Chapter 46 - Thank You For Your Consideration, Miss Su
The Queen of Everything
It was then Bo Muyi noticed the cup of lemon tea in Su Chaâs hand as she chuckled. He then asked curiously, âCha Cha, what are you drinking?â
âLemon tea, itâs a kind of drink that tastes like lemon water. Do you want to have a try?â
Su Cha lifted the cup and swirled it. âSure,â Bo Muyi readily replied.
Whatever Su Cha was eating or drinking, he wanted to have exactly the same as Cha Cha.
There was a light blue straw in the cup and Su Cha lifted the cup to his lips. With his mouth ajar, he bit the straw and gave it a sip.
His beautifully arched eyebrows creased instinctively as the ice-cold water intruded his tongue. Su Cha was uncertain whether he could take any cold drinks and thus she just let him have a sip. She asked, âIs it good?â
She had noticed that the driver kept on peeping at them from the rearview mirror when Bo Muyi was drinking. There was concern reflected in his eyes and he seemed to have something to say yet he remained silent.
Su Cha felt that there must be something wrong with Bo Muyi.
Instead of answering, Bo Muyi just looked at Su Cha and asked, âHow about Cha Cha? Do you think itâs good?â
He was pretty wily in some way.
Whatever Su Cha answered, that would be his answer as well.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Su Cha squinted her eyes and said, âI think itâs not bad and a hot afternoon like this is the best time to drink it...â
As expected, Bo Muyi replied right after her words, âIt tastes good.â
He got closer and wanted to have another sip as soon as he finished talking. Su Cha moved the cup away, âCan you take cold drinks?â
Bo Muyi did not say a word and kept his eyes on Su Cha. Deep down, he was struggling with a dilemma.
Should I tell Cha Cha the truth?
At this moment, the driver finally could not hold himself anymore and blurted, âMiss Su, young master cannot take cold drinks.â
As soon as he finished his words, Bo Muyi shot him a glare at once. His piercing eyes were indescribably nerve-racking, locking on the driverâs body just like an evil ghost. The driver felt his muscles tightened as panic began to engulf him. Terrified, he avoided Bo Muyiâs eyes and kept looking at the road ahead.
Su Cha turned Bo Muyiâs face back and said, âHeâs just saying that you canât take cold drinks. You asked me to behave, but how about you? You shouldâve said earlier that you canât take cold drinks so that I wonât let you try it.â
Su Cha pretended to stare at him angrily and Bo Muyi kept his head low, just like a kid who had done something wrong, âIâm sorry.â
âDonât you say sorry.â Su Cha did not want to hear his apology. It would remind her of the scene where Bo Muyi was dying in front of her and apologized with a weak smile stretched upon his ashen face. To her, it was a horrible nightmare that she never wanted to recall.
With her eyes closed, she moved closer to Bo Muyi, âMuyi, I donât like to hear your apology. Just make sure that you behave well next time and let me know about the food that you dislike or cannot eat.â
Bo Muyi nodded obediently, âOkay...â
Su Cha gave out a hearty laugh and leaned on Bo Muyiâs shoulder. At the same time, Bo Muyi rested his head slightly on hers and slid his hand around Su Chaâs waist.
âSlurp...â
Soon, Su Cha gulped down the rest of the lemon tea. Holding the cup in her hand as she prepared to toss it after getting down the car, she then asked, âMuyi, I donât know how long the audition will take. So just go back to work after you send me there. Donât waste your time, okay?â
âHmm...â
The man continued resting his cheek atop her head and did not want to budge an inch at all. His sluggish voice sounded like he was not happy with it.
Shortly, the driver announced their arrival at the destination. Su Cha got up and made a sudden turn before she got down the car. Blocking the driverâs sight with her lifted arm, she gave Bo Muyi a quick peck on his thin lips, âMuyi, Iâll call you after Iâm done. Bye.â
Bo Muyi was apparently delighted by her kiss and bid her goodbye with his eyes crinkled in happiness, âBye, Cha Cha!â
âGoodbye, Miss Su,â said the driver.
Thank you so much for your consideration, Miss Su.
