When Shi Yao woke up, she didn't know why but his eyes were actually a little moist, as if there was some unexplainable, unpleasant feeling in them.
Shi Yao had clearly always wanted to help the golden couple escape, but now, she didn't think that her heart would actually become anxious. She wiped her face with her hand, took a deep breath and slapped her cheeks with all her might, as if she could clear herself up a little this way.
After staying in bed for five or six minutes, he changed his clothes and got up to prepare for Mo Jintu's birthday. Shi Yao's salary from last month had not been paid, and from the conflict he had with Mo Jintu, he had been drinking water outside. He did not have much money left in his pockets, so he could not buy any expensive looking gifts.
Shi Yao busied herself in the kitchen, rolling and rolling up the noodles. Shi Yao had made a long noodles with both of her eyes, and there was even a large pile of failed products in the trash!
"Miss Shi noodles cannot be too soft or too hard. Otherwise, it would be very easy for one to not be able to knead it in such length, or it would break when being cooked."
Shi Yao nodded, looking at the time on her phone, she did not expect that Mo Jintu, who always had a sense of time, would still not wake up.
"President Mo woke up really late today."
"Miss Shi, President Mo hasn't returned yet! But you can be assured that President Mo will normally stay at home for his birthday and give himself a break. He might be delayed due to some matters, but he should be back before long. "
Shi Yao nodded, and after she started preparing the ingredients needed, it was already around eleven in the afternoon.
Mo Jintu had not appeared yet, but even Shi Yao couldn't help but to suspect that there was something wrong with the Auntie Wu's information. Mo Jintu did not like to stay at home for his birthday, so he might be flirting with other women, or maybe he was just lying down in a warm and comfortable place to enjoy life.
Thinking up to here, Shi Yao used her flour covered hands to pat her head and silently warned herself not to think anymore.
When the door opened, Shi Yao walked out of the kitchen in her apron and saw the joy in Mo Jintu's heart that she could not suppress.
"President Mo, you're finally back. I prepared something delicious for you in the kitchen, sit on the sofa and wait for me."
After Shi Yao finished speaking, he anxiously ran back into the kitchen and almost fell down. That rash manner of her caused the expression on Mo Jintu's face to slowly soften, as if she had never seen Mo Jintu's expression towards anyone other than his close friends.
Auntie Wu took a deep breath. She had a nagging feeling that Shi Yao was simply an angel sent by the heavens to save Mo Jintu from this ocean of bitterness.
"What are you going to do?"
"I'll celebrate your birthday together with you!"
Mo Jintu was stunned, he looked at Auntie Wu, who merely coughed twice, and avoided Mo Jintu's gaze.
Not long after, Shi Yao walked out of the kitchen with the cooked noodles in hand. Her sweet and beautiful smile made Mo Jintu lose himself in thought.
"Come and have a taste of my cooking. I promise I won't let you down." Shi Yao said.
"My birthday, how can you treat me to noodles so simply? Aren't you being too stingy? " Mo Jintu looked at the noodles in the bowl, and then turned to Shi Yao and said.
"This is a longevity noodles that I've personally made myself. I'll make you eat every single one of them. You can't let the noodles leave your mouth on their own!"
"Troublesome. It would be more practical to send a gift."
Shi Yao unhappily took off his apron and threw it on Mo Jintu's thigh. "I deliberately took a few days off to make you such a birthday lunch, how can you not know what's good for you? You also know that my salary isn't very high, I really can't buy you a gift worth over ten thousand yuan. "
"Yes."
"Mm, what do you mean? If you don't like it, then don't eat it. I won't force you." Shi Yao unhappily pulled the bowl back in front of him, feeling that her good intentions had been ruined by Mo Jintu.
"This gift is very good, I really like it."
Originally, he was about to take away his longevity noodles, but Shi Yao's hand stopped after hearing Mo Jintu's words. His eyes stared blankly at Mo Jintu and his palms were filled with sweat, as his gaze also gradually became helpless.
Mo Jintu seemed to be becoming more and more attractive, to the point where Shi Yao didn't even know how to shift her gaze away at some point in time.
"Should I finish each of them in one go?"
"Ah?" En, En. I need to finish them all! I've wasted a lot of time to make this one. Why don't you try it! "
Just as Mo Jintu was about to move his chopsticks, the doorbell rang outside.
Shi Yao quickly stood up to open the door. The person outside surprised Shi Yao, but she felt that it was reasonable.
Tang Ziying, Mo Jintu's girlfriend, what's so strange about coming to celebrate her birthday with Mo Jintu? Shi Yao looked at Tang Ziying who was outside the door and smiled lightly, waving her hand in a gesture of invitation.
She was dressed in a light pink dress, holding a cake in hand, her hair was coiled beautifully, the makeup on her face made her already impressive appearance even more natural and unrestrained. Shi Yao suddenly felt a bit disappointed, but in her heart she told herself, it's even better now.
"Jin, I remember today is your birthday, I haven't been with you for so many years, I don't know if I have the honor to be by your side today, to be with you for your birthday."
"No need, I already have someone accompanying me."
On the contrary, he placed the cake in his hand on the table. "I know there are many things that you can blame me for, but right now, I only wish to accompany you for an unforgettable birthday, don't you allow that?"
"No need, you can go back now."
"President Mo, isn't your current attitude a little too much towards Miss Tang? After all, the two of you are lovers, so you don't need to use this type of interaction, do you?" Shi Yao stood in the middle and was in a dilemma left and right, still trying to bring Tang Ziying up to speak.
Mo Jintu turned his head to look at Shi Yao. That cold face of his made people feel goosebumps: "I don't need you to worry about me, go upstairs now."
"But I feel that this is not the attitude you should have towards Miss Tang, President Mo! Your current attitude is very problematic. "
"Go upstairs. I don't want to say it a third time."
Tang Ziying forcefully smiled and patted Shi Yao's shoulder. "You should not be involved in the things between the two of us, go up! Jin will take care of it. Don't worry about me. "
Mo Jintu frowned, no one knew when, but he had already stopped hating Tang Ziying's look.
Mo Jintu stood up, looked at the cake on the table, and then let out a cold laugh.
"Auntie Wu, throw out the cake Miss Tang brought."
Shi Yao's mouth was agape as she looked at Mo Jintu in shock. She used to think that Mo Jintu had a bad temper, but she never thought that Mo Jintu could actually do things in such a vile and decisive manner.
"Is there really a need?" In any case, you two once fell in love, what's the difference between what you're doing now and being scum! The cake that Miss Tang gave you, although you did not cherish it well, you actually let people throw it away? "
"I told you before, Shi Yao and I have nothing to do with you, so don't meddle in other people's business." Mo Jintu replied unhappily.
After Shi Yao let out a cold laugh, she walked over to Mo Jintu's side and grabbed onto Mo Jintu's clothes tightly: "You're right, your matter doesn't have anything to do with me, but I can't get used to it. You, a man, bullying a woman, are simply shameless."
Mo Jintu pushed Shi Yao away, his expression already full of unhappiness.
"There's no one here for you to talk to. Scram upstairs."
Tang Ziying whispered at the side to tell the two of them not to argue, and at the same time, she sounded like she was crying, that voice sounded wronged, but at the same time, it made people's hearts ache.
Shi Yao felt her heart tighten when she saw Tang Ziying's appearance, but she didn't know why such a man like Mo Jintu didn't know how to treat a lady.
She turned to look at the untouched longevity noodles on the table and felt her anger grow.
But he was suppressing it with all his might.
"Stop quarreling, Jin, I know you have complaints about me right now, but just because you don't like me taking this cake, you don't need to be like this with Miss Shi because of me." Tang Ziying wiped her tears, "I will bring this cake with me. I wish you a happy birthday.
"You can go now."
When Shi Yao saw this scene, the anger in her heart finally couldn't be suppressed anymore. She lifted up the longevity noodles on the table and placed it on Mo Jintu's shoulder, then looked at Mo Jintu's astonished eyes … while he panted heavily, he protected Tang Ziying behind him.
Mo Jintu's gaze turned cold as he lowered his head to look at the marks on his clothes. The expression on his face could not really be considered pleasant to look at.
"What do you mean? "You told me?"
"You, the scumbag who bullies women, are not worthy to eat this bowl of noodles! I don't want to celebrate your birthday in the future either! "
After saying that, Shi Yao looked at the soup that was dripping down Mo Jintu's clothes, and suddenly felt that she was at a loss of what to do.
Mo Jintu had originally planned to chase after him, but he did not expect to find that Tang Ziying had grabbed her wrist. Tang Ziying looked at Mo Jintu who was wiping the soup off Mo Jintu's body with tears in his eyes.
"Does it hurt? Take off your clothes and let me see if you have any burns. "
"I've already said that you don't need to care about my matters. Are you satisfied now that things have turned out this way?" Mo Jintu retorted with a harsh tone.
Tang Ziying's hand trembled slightly. Looking at Mo Jintu biting his lower lip with that pitiful look, no matter who it was, their heart would involuntarily tighten.
Mo Jintu took a deep breath as he looked at Tang Ziying. There was no way she could get angry anymore when faced with such an expression.
"Alright, I will eat the cake, you can go back! Otherwise, your dad will say that I kidnapped you, so let's go! "
"No, I'll explain to my dad that things from the past won't happen."
"I'll let you go!"
