"Then why are you staring at me?" Seeing that Yue Yang was staring at her embarrassedly without eating at all, Shang Xiaomo swallowed the last mouthful of food and also stopped.

Ji Yanxi's sudden words of love made Shang Xiaomo's throat choke, and she didn't know how to reply. Although she felt sweet at the bottom of her heart, she didn't know how to react, so she could only bury her head in her food again.

Hearing that it was sweet, Shang Xiaomo took another gulp. This water doesn't smell good. Also, what did she owe him? Ye Zichen looked at him in confusion. "Just what do I owe you?"

When he said that, Shang Xiaomo finally understood that she still owed him a kiss in the morning.

She, who always reacted half a beat slower, finally realized that Ji Yanxi had not only kissed her, but had also teased her. Shang Xiaomo's face unconsciously flushed red, but there was a little smile in her bright and beautiful eyes.

Other people said that when loving someone, one would always be unable to help themselves and come into physical contact with them. Ji Yanxi probably liked her, right?

Seeing Shang Xiaomo not saying anything for a long time, Ji Yanxi laughed in his heart: "Why is she so intolerable to tease, and also so fond of blushing, it's really interesting."

He smirked and asked, "Are you full yet?"

"I'm full."

"Then let's go." Ji Yanxi suggested.

Shang Xiaomo also felt that if she continued to stay, every time they were together, Ji Yanxi would bully her. With the situation earlier, it was unknown what else he would do, which was why Shang Xiaomo agreed to it.

"Alright." Ji Yanxi walked to the front desk to settle the bill, and then turned tyrannically and hugged Shang Xiaomo's waist as she walked out, while forcefully suppressing the movement that Shang Xiaomo wanted to struggle free with.

Realizing that she had obediently stopped moving, Ji Yanxi intentionally and ambiguously whispered into her ear. His warm breath gushed out from her white and delicate neck, and he said softly: "I've already explained my work to you enough. Tomorrow, I'll bring you to a place that has a different meaning to me."

From an outsider's point of view, the two of them were like a couple in love. The man was tall and handsome, the woman was cute and petite, what a perfect couple.

But Shang Xiaomo didn't think that way, she only felt that Ji Yanxi's embrace made her uncomfortable, so she wanted to struggle free. After hearing what Ji Yanxi said again, she, who was extremely curious, forgot about resisting and focused on listening to what he said.

"This is definitely a pleasant surprise." As Ji Yanxi said this, Shang Xiaomo wanted to know where he was going, "Where are you going? Can't you tell me right now, Xi?" Ye Zichen shook his arm and said coquettishly, "Tell me, okay?"

Ji Yanxi continued to act mysterious, "You'll know tomorrow."

"Aiya, just tell me, okay?" Shang Xiaomo blinked her large, intelligent eyes. Because of the difference in height, she had no choice but to raise her head.

However, he suppressed the throbbing in his heart and deliberately said with a straight face. "You'll know when the time comes. Don't ask so many questions."

"Hmph, if you don't want to say it, then don't. In any case, I will find out tomorrow." Shang Xiaomo released the hand that was tugging at him, curled her lips, and lowered her head as she muttered to herself: "What kind of person is this, just a stingy person, who would want to know?"

Seeing that she looked unhappy, Ji Yanxi wondered what she was talking about all by herself. He couldn't help but find it funny.

She stepped forward and gently ruffled her hair.

An extremely gentle voice said.

"Can I take you home?"

A trace of disappointment flashed across Shang Xiaomo's face. He still didn't tell himself that he originally wanted to stay with him a little longer.

"Alright, hurry up and send me home." Shang Xiaomo said snappily, with a trace of impatience.

Ji Yanxi looked at the childish Shang Xiaomo, a warm feeling swept past her heart, but the only thing that came to her mind was the thought of taking care of her for a lifetime.

Ji Yanxi brought Shang Xiaomo home, and then reminded her repeatedly that he would come and pick her up tomorrow. However, looking at Shang Xiaomo's gloomy expression, it seemed that she did not have much interest in her, so she did not say anymore and directly left.

Shang Xiaomo returned to the merchant house with a depressed expression. After taking a bath, she played with Qi Qi and returned to her room.

Why do you have to make people wait until tomorrow? Why was the time passing so slowly? Shang Xiaomo looked at her phone again, it was only eleven o'clock.

For some reason, she, who was extremely curious, was especially interested in the mysterious place that Ji Yanxi mentioned. Just because of that matter, she was almost unable to fall asleep.

She was just about to send a message to Ji Yanxi to ask him about it, but before her hand could touch her phone …

"Ding." Shang Xiaomo's expression shook. Does it have to be so many coincidences? She impatiently grabbed the phone from the table and looked at the name on the screen.

"It's Little Snow."

Shang Xiaomo's expectations did not come to fruition. Although she was disappointed, this was still a text message from her good friend, so she opened it and looked, "Will there be time tomorrow?"

Because she already had an appointment tomorrow, Shang Xiaomo quickly edited a few words and sent it over, "Tomorrow, I won't be at home."

Seeing these two words, Lin Xueqing glanced at the man who was sleeping soundly, then quietly walked out the door. She picked up her phone and dialed a number, and when the call connected, she spoke with an extremely low voice: "Hello, it's me, Xiao Mo."

Of course he knew it was her, but Shang Xiaomo still looked at her phone strangely, "There's nothing wrong with my phone, why are you talking so quietly?"

"Shh," Lin Xueqing immediately said nervously when she heard her voice. She was afraid that the man would discover her, so she quickly turned her head to look at the tightly closed door. Seeing that nothing had happened and that it was completely safe, she relaxed and said to Shang Xiaomo: "Be quiet."
