âNo reason, I just donât want to call.â Mo Weiyi turned his face aside, his eyes half-closed, âIâve been calling for ten years, Iâm tired.â
The man froze completely.
Mo Weiyi waited for a while, then slowly turned his face to look at him.
He was as motionless as if he had been acupunctured.
His eyes were as dark as ink, without the cover of his glasses, looking straight into her eyes.
âTired?â He repeated the word, his voice cold and devoid of warmth, âWhy are you tired, Weiyi, did you stop loving me?â
Mo Weiyi bit his lip.
He felt like laughing.
Is he really asking her this question?
She didnât love him?
How could she not love him?
She had loved him for ten whole years.
From the first moment she saw him, she fell in love at first sight, and this love stayed the same for ten years.
How could she just simply stop loving him?
But no matter how much she loved him, she now felt really tired.
She was so tired⦠she didnât want to say another word.
The womanâs silence caused the manâs deep black eyes to narrow, fused together.
Looking at her charming and blushing face, there was a layer of indifference in her eyes and half-closed eyes, cold and clear, devoid of any warmth and initiative to hint at their past relationship.
The handsome contour of his face gradually tensed up, his heart was as if it had been grasped by something.
Not long after, his face returned to its usual icy indifference.
He left slowly.
Then he turned around without saying a word and walked into the bathroom with his long legs.
After a while, a ârushingâ sound of water flow was heard from the bathroom.
Mo Weiyi pulled the quilt over himself and felt an unprecedented sense of fatigue from his body to his heart.
She closed her eyes and almost immediately fell into a deep sleep.
She didnât even realize when the man left.
â¦
When she woke up again, the bedroom was quiet. She turned her body in the quilt and looked towards the French window.
The heavy curtains had been drawn together, but the morning sunlight was too bright, penetrating through the crack, projecting on the carpet, leaving spots of white light.
Mo Weiyi was so stunned watching that for quite some time until the vaguely heard sound of an antique clock ringing.
She turned her face and looked at the clock on the wall.
It was already eleven in the morning.
Dragging her sore body, Mo Weiyi walked into the bathroom.
After cleaning up, she looked at herself in the mirror. Her cheeks flushed hot again.
Simply a barbarian.
Anyone who didnât know would think she had been abused.
Wasnât it abuse?
Thinking of Xiao Yebaiâs ferocious momentum yesterday, Mo Weiyi pursed her small mouth, feeling both angry and annoyed.
What angered her was that she couldnât defend herselfâ¦
What annoyed her was that despite this, their relationship showed no progress.
Sit back and relax.
Thinking about the gathering in the afternoon, she went outside, opened her wardrobe, picked a light high-necked dress, and matched it with a long oversized coat.
After applying a subtle makeup to herself, at last, she applied a very prominent strawberry red lipstick. Mo Weiyi got up and left.
â¦
When she reached the living room, Grandpa Mo smiled at her, âWeiyi, finally willing to get up?â
Mo Weiyiâs face inevitably blushed again.
Grandpa Mo was extremely worried about his granddaughter as Mo Weiyi is rather innocent by nature. Whatever is on her mind, invariably appears on her face.
If she liked someone, she would treat that person with utmost sincerity, fully dedicated.
Just like the brat Xiao Yebai.
But last night, he clearly noticed that Mo Weiyi no longer showered Xiao Yebai with her usual dose of affection.
Because of this, Grandpa Mo worried the whole night, couldnât sleep properly, until this morning, found out that the young couple hadnât got up for breakfast.
Not long before, when Xiao Yebai came over, he asked, Xiao Yebai said Mo Weiyi was still sleepingâ¦..
So it seemed like the couple had a minor dispute.
A couple fight at the head of the bed, and then make amends at the foot of the bed.
Especially now, seeing Mo Weiyiâs blushing and shy appearance, Grandpa Mo was relieved and very satisfied with his laughter, âYebai has gone out on an errand, Weiyi, what would you like to eat? Let Butler Shi prepare it for you.â
Even though Butler Shi was indeed the old butler of the Mo family, he possessed excellent cooking skills.
And he was particularly good at making light and delicious Jiangzhe cuisine.
No man in the Mo family knew how to cook, and Xu Xianâs cooking skills werenât great either. So, Mo Weiyi had grown up used to the culinary art of the butler. Since getting married, every time he returned to the old house, it was the butler who personally cooked.
Glancing at the antique wall clock, Mo Weiyi said, âJust make something simple. Iâm going out with friends this afternoon.â
âAlright.â The old man Mo agreed immediately.

After lunch, Mo Weiyi called Rong An to drive him to school.
Halfway there, he noticed a mobile store and asked, âRong An, could you get me a new phone?â
The black Audi quickly came to a stop by the roadside.
About ten minutes later, Rong An got back into the car and handed him a red, latest-model smartphone.
Mo Weiyi inserted the sim card, and as soon as he turned on the phone, several messages popped up on WeChat.
All the messages, aside from those in the Little Fairy WeChat group, were from Ling Zhizhou.
[Senior sister? Why did your phone hang up just now?]
[Senior sister, are you alright? I canât get through to your phone.]
[Senior sister, reply to my message when you see it, Iâm really worried about you.]
[Senior sister, are you coming to the theatre this afternoon?]
[Senior sisterâ¦]
A series of messages, which indeed seemed a bit⦠overly enthusiastic.
Much like how she used to message Xiao Yebai, always sending multiple messages without a response.
âHe has evil intentions towards you.â
Mo Weiyi suddenly remembered the words Xiao Yebai had said last night.
Did Ling Zhizhou truly have feelings for himâ¦..?
Rong Anâs voice suddenly interrupted, âPrincess, are you and Mr. Xiao having disputes?â
Mo Weiyi paused, âYou could tell?â
Rong An: ââ¦â
Even a fool could tell, okay.
He had held back from asking until just now when Mo Weiyi asked him to buy a new phone.
In the morning, he had seen the smashed phone Aunt Yang had thrown away.
Mo Weiyi had only used the previous phone for a few months. The fact that it was smashed so severely showed it wasnât accidentally dropped, but likely smashed intentionally in anger.
Itâs hard to imagine the always composed and refined Mr. Xiao doing something as childish as smashing a phone.
Feigning indifference, Weiyi said, âItâs nothing. Just a small disagreementâ¦Donât tell my grandfather, I donât want him to worry.â
âAlright.â Rong An agreed stiffly.
The Audi gently started off again,
Along the way, Mo Weiyi didnât say anything more.
By the time they arrived at the school gate, Su Wanwan was already waiting.
After getting into the car and noticing Mo Weiyiâs careful makeup, Su Wanwan felt a bit relieved, butâ¦.
âYou got a new phone?â
âYeah.â Mo Weiyi stirred the new phone in her hand, âThe latest model. I just bought it. Do you like it?â
âRich.â
Su Wanwan remembered that Weiyi had just recently bought a new phone and changed her number. Now she had bought another one. This truly was the behavior of the fabulously wealthy.
âPrincess, where are we going?â
Su Wenwen immediately said, âTo the Beauty Wellness Club on Sun Road.â
Weiyi frowned, âDidnât we agree to change the place?â
âWeâll go have a treatment first, then weâll go to the place you mentioned. Iâve already discussed it with Secretary Shi, and since you didnât reply, she has already driven over there. Itâs bad to change the location now, right?â
Su Wanwan was decisive in her response, âIn addition, Secretary Shi is a power woman. Her time is precious. Do you think she is like us?â
Mo Weiyi rolled his eye, â⦠Okay then.â
Only she was covered in bruises left by someone else, which was rather embarrassing.

Today is the weekend, and the road is a bit congested.
Fortunately, when they arrived at the club, they were only ten minutes late.
As soon as they entered, Su Wanwan immediately apologized, âSorry, Secretary Shi, Weiyi dawdled, and you havenât been waiting long, have you?â
âItâs fine, I just arrived.â Shi Huan nodded at Mo Weiyi, âMiss Mo.â
âWhat Miss Mo, youâre too formal. Just call me Weiyi.â Mo Weiyi walked over with a smile, âI will call you Little Huanhuan.â
Shi Huan pushed up her glasses, seemingly taken aback, âLetâs go in.â
âLetâs go, letâs go.â Su Wanwan was the first to walk in.
