Liuxi looked through the gap between the doors and saw Shen Mo Chen sitting at his desk, picking up his documents. Liuxi looked through the gap of the door and saw Shen Mo Chen sitting at his desk, picking up his documents.
Liu Xixi was stunned for a moment. Such a silent Chen had a magic that could make one's heartbeat quicken.
Noticing her gaze, Shen Mo Chen looked into Liu Xixi's eyes, and for a moment, everything seemed to stop moving. No one opened their eyes.
Her heart was beating faster and faster. Liu Xixi felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her throat. She coughed twice to hide her embarrassment, "The meal is ready. You can eat now."
Then, as if running away, he hurriedly left the study and ran back to the living room.
The housekeeper looked at the bashful blush on Liu Xixi's face, and the smile on her face grew even wider. He knew that her arrangement would have some effect.
During dinner, Shen Jingchen picked up a piece of Red Braised Meat and asked, "You want to participate in the Jewelry Design Competition?"
"Are you watching me?"
A cold laugh rang out, "Who do you think you are? Do I need to waste my manpower and resources to keep an eye on you? "
Liu Xi Xi was embarrassed. That's right, how did he forget that he was the new school director? Maybe he just happened to hear about it.
"Yes, I have a bet with my classmate."
Shen Mo Chen's eyebrows shot up as though he had an interest in the game itself. He looked towards Liu Xixi and asked, "What bet?"
"In our class, there is a brainless fan of Qin Shiyu's who challenged me. The loser will be a slave for the opponent." Liuxi said calmly.
"Then I bet on her winning." He thought it would be interesting to be in a direct confrontation with Lucy.
"Then you may be disappointed." Liu Xixi said, could it be that Qin Shiyu was already that important in Shen Mo Chen's heart? Even if it was just a small fan of Qin Shiyu's, did he have to protect her?
The food in her mouth was like chewing wax. She put down her chopsticks and went up to the second floor.
During this period, it was as if Shen Mo Chen had become a different person. Every night, he would go home to eat and sleep, and the next morning, he would go to work at the company.
They didn't want to cause trouble for Liuxi anymore. The two of them didn't want to get into trouble, so she was quite satisfied with her life these few days.
Every day in class, reading books, for the jewelry design competition to recharge, momentarily forget those troublesome things.
One day, just as she came out of the bathroom, before she could dry her hair, she received a call from her father, Liu Chengze. "Hello, dad …"
In her mind, her father rarely seemed to take the initiative to contact her.
"Cissy, how have you been? Why didn't you call Dad? " Liu Chengze opened his mouth and her stepmother, Jiang Manwei, was beside him mumbling to herself. She was complaining about Liu Xixi's words, and every word she said was heard by Liu Xiya.
"Dad, I've been busy preparing for the tournament and I've been doing quite well. How about you guys?"
"Hello, we are the parents. Come home tomorrow. Your mother and I would like to have a meal with you.
"But, Mo Chen is too busy. He might not have the time …"
"Are you unwilling to even go home after getting married? If it wasn't because of your sister, how could you have such a good relationship? " Without waiting for Liu Chengze's reply, Jiang Manwei snatched the phone and shouted at Liu Xixi. Her tone was as sarcastic as ever.
"Mom …" "Don't say that..." She knew her stepmother had always disliked her, but her stepmother's attitude had chilled her.
"Don't say anymore, just come back for dinner tomorrow." Jiang Weiwei hung up the phone right after she finished speaking.
Early the next morning, Liu Xixi planned to brazenly ask Shen Jingchen to go back to the Liu Family for dinner. However, she was informed that Shen Jingchen had already left the house.
Liuxi let out a sigh of relief. This was good as well. At most, she would just go home. After all, she was the one her father wanted to see. Bringing this Icemountain Face home might make his parents unhappy.
It was not until after school that Liu Xixi finally stopped a car by the roadside and gave the address of the Liu Family.
The Liu Family's villa was located in another rich district of Ping City, which was a distance away from where Liu Xiya and Shen Mo Chen currently resided.
Liu Xi Xi saw the familiar scenery along the road. As the Liu Family got closer, she became more and more nervous. This was the first time she went back to her parents' home after marriage, right? Can't you go empty-handed?
Fortunately, although she didn't have much experience, she had watched too many idols and foam dramas in her childhood. It seemed like she needed to buy something.
Thinking of this, she called the taxi driver to stop and bought some nutrition products at the supermarket. Then, she got on the taxi and went straight to the Liu Family.
"Sissy …" "You're back?" When Liu Chengze saw his daughter walk in from the door, he quickly took the gift from her, "Seriously, it's great that you guys came back to have dinner with your parents, why are you buying so many things? What about Mo Chen? Did you stop the car? "
The smile lingered on his face, as if he were waiting for his daughter to come home.
"Dad, he's no longer at home when I woke up today, so I didn't tell him that I'm back." Liuxi spoke up in embarrassment.
"You mean Mo Chen didn't come?" Liu Chengze instantly changed his expression and threw all the nutrients in his hand onto the sofa in the living room. He said in an unfriendly tone, "I told you to come back for dinner, but why are you here alone?"
The reason why he asked Cissy and Shen Jingchen to come back for dinner was because there was a problem with his company and he needed some money to ask Shen Jingchen for help.
Before this, he had already called Shen Mo Chen several times, but Shen Mo Chen didn't give him any face as his father-in-law. He always used all sorts of excuses to evade his father's calls, so he wanted to take advantage of this meal to get the Shen family's financial aid.
But now, what was the use of Liu Xixi coming back alone?
"Dad …" Liu Xixi didn't know what Liu Chengze was thinking, he never thought that her father would be so angry. Just a moment ago, her father was full of joy at his arrival, but in that instant, his face turned bad, and she was unable to react.
Hearing the conversation in the living room, Jiang Weiwei ran out of the kitchen and pointed at Liu Xixi's nose as she cursed, "I told you to call Mo Chen to come back with you. Why did you come back by yourself?"
She knew that Liu Chengze had the intention of asking her to come back for dinner. Now that she saw Liu Xixi come back alone, she naturally would not let her off easily.
Only now did she realize that her father and stepmother's main purpose in calling her home was Shen Jingchen, and that she was just a relative that she didn't need.
"Dad …" I thought you wanted to see me so you called me back. " Liu Xi Xi Xi spoke, his tone was filled with uncertainty that even he could feel.
