993 I Nearly Believed!

It was clearly a cheerful song, but it didn't manage to infect the people in the restaurant!

Especially the bodyguards that were standing in the restaurant. They seemed to see signs of Cen Mo flaring up. The atmosphere was so chilly that even the act of breathing made one feel suffocated.

Now that Saihand wasn't around, should Cen Mo flare up, they didn't know what to do!

"That means, despite the two of you being broken up for so long… he has been wearing this watch all along?" Cen Mo sneered. "Or did he know that you'd be here today and thus came specially to return it to you?"

Since it was just the two of them there, they spoke with no qualms. Cen Mo toyed with the watch, not bothering to conceal the disdain in his eyes.

Cen Mo's indifferent tone made Song Yao worry for Su Huan.

"Isn't your question a little strange?" Song Yao stared at Cen Mo with a frown. "You were the one who suddenly decided to come here today. How would I know I'd bump into Su Huan here?"

"Don't you have a phone?" Cen Mo asked. "Should I disallow you from having something like a phone?"

Song Yao set down the spoon she was gripping and wiped her lips with a napkin. "If I had known… I'd rather have died than come here! I have no face to see Su Huan!"

Cen Mo narrowed his eyes. It was like the surrounding air had turned to ice.

"If it were you… would you have the face to? I was already planning to get married to him… yet I fell for someone else. In order to be with that person, I dumped him. If it were you, would you have the face to see him?" Song Yao's eyes were reddened.

Cen Mo calmly tossed the watch on the table. The slight sound it made caused Song Yao's scalp to turn numb.

"Speaking of which, I'm interested to know. Back then, when you submitted to me… was it because of your future, or was it so that I could let that Su fellow off? Were you afraid I might fix the Su family to death?" Cen Mo leaned backward, his posture relaxed. He rapped his fingers against the table inconsistently, waiting for Song Yao's reply.

Song Yao's pupils quivered, not knowing what to say in response.

"Don't say it's because you loved me again. I remember that you were very resistant at the start, righteously telling me you had a boyfriend!" Cen Mo rested one arm on the back of the booth, saying with a smile, "After we slept together, the first thing you said to me wasn't to return the female lead role to you, it was for me to let the Su family off…"

Song Yao's throat felt swollen and painful. She hadn't thought of how to deal with suddenly having the past raked up.

"Do you think I'm a person without an ounce of shame?" Song Yao asked.

"What do you mean?" Cen Mo took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and retrieved a cigarette. Though, he didn't smoke in front of Song Yao, merely toying with it.

"I was faithless and disloyal for ditching Su Huan. If I still only cared about myself, such a Song Yao… would you get married to me?" Song Yao asked in turn.

Cen Mo stared at Song Yao, his deep and unfathomable gaze making the hairs all over Song Yao's body stand up. It was as if he would see through every lie she fabricated.

"I didn't mention the female lead role because I knew you would give it to me! But the Su family's matter… you were planning to do that to them because of me! After abandoning Su Huan and obtaining happiness by getting together with someone I love, I couldn't be indifferent to the Su family! Abandoning someone and forcing his entire family to a dead end, that's too devoid of conscience!" Song Yao answered seriously.

Cen Mo laughed softly. "I nearly believed it!"

Song Yao could hear the sarcasm in Cen Mo's words. So… he still didn't believe her!

Yes, Cen Mo didn't believe that this woman, who used to be crazy about leaving him, loved him!

Especially the words Song Yao said today, Cen Mo refused to believe it all the more.

Back then, Cen Mo had used tough methods against Song Yao, using her career and her boyfriend Su Huan's family business to force her to comply. Song Yao said it herself, that she hated Cen Mo and would never fall for him.

"Don't believe what? Don't believe that I love you?" Song Yao's eyes were reddened. She sighed and leaned against the booth tiredly. "I've always been trying hard to prove that I love you, Cen Mo… But I'll also get tired! If you continue refusing to believe me this way, I'll also feel pain…"

Cen Mo merely stared at Song Yao, his gaze peaceful and unaffected.

Song Yao thought of Cen Mo's psychological illness at this moment. She rubbed her reddened eyes as if she was suddenly revitalized, forcing herself to dispel the fatigue in her heart.

Cen Mo's psychologist had said before that this was a tough battle, and since Song Yao had decided to fight it, she must get her spirits up and fight against his psychological illness.

"Ask me!" Song Yao gripped the sides of the table with both hands, staring at Cen Mo earnestly.

"Ask you what?" Cen Mo said indifferently.

"Ask me why I fell for you when I was with Su Huan!" Song Yao's expression was resolute.

Cen Mo held the unlit cigarette in his hand, subconsciously making a tapping motion. He asked, "Why did you fall for me?"

"Lust at first sight!" Song Yao said, then couldn't hold back her smile anymore.

Cen Mo paused slightly. Subsequently, the thin layer of frost in the depths of his eyes seemed to crack. He lowered his gaze and laughed softly. Though, this time around, it had a completely different feel from before…

The tense bodyguards in the restaurant also let out long exhales. Finally, the atmosphere was no longer as oppressive as before.

The words "lust at first sight" nearly made the bodyguards burst out laughing. But then again… it was apt, for their Mr. Cen did have the looks that made one feel lust at first sight for him.

Not far away, a bodyguard came back with Tuan Tuan. The little fellow returned to his seat, feeling that the atmosphere was very different from earlier. He picked up his pizza and took a big bite, his mouth full of cheese, his little face puffed up as he chewed his food.

With reddened ears, Song Yao lowered her head and stirred her porridge. After eating a mouthful, she gazed at Cen Mo with watery eyes, as if telling him to stop suspecting her.

Cen Mo brought the milk to Tuan Tuan. "Drink some milk…"

Tuan Tuan nodded and lifted the glass of milk with both hands. His mouth was full of food, looking like a little pau. Only after a while did he take a sip of the milk, forming a milk mustache on his face.

Song Yao laughed softly. When she drew a napkin to help Tuan Tuan wipe his mouth, Cen Mo also brought a napkin to Tuan Tuan's mouth. When their eyes met, they couldn't resist smiling.

"You do it!" Song Yao retracted her hand, not competing with Cen Mo over the opportunity to win the affections of his nephew.

After finishing his pizza, Tuan Tuan thought of Lin Nuan and Fu Huai'an. Yet, he was afraid if he got them takeaway, Papa would know he had secretly eaten pizza. The very fierce Papa would lecture him!

Tuan Tuan was in a dilemma. He didn't want to be lectured by Papa, but he really really wanted to let Papa and Mama try something so delicious!

Song Yao, who knew Tuan Tuan was ordered to lose weight, saw Tuan Tuan frowning, looking like he was in a difficult position.
