My ex-boyfriend is looking forward to my bankruptcy

Xi Mozhou stared at the heavy rain, took a bamboo chair, sat under the porch, and stopped teasing.

"Speak directly if you have anything to say."

"Okay, then I'll be frank. Han Feng made an appointment for me this morning, and the hospital just called me."

"What does your affair have to do with my Taotao?"

"You also know that this is a matter between us, how come your husband doesn't know about it and is actually meddling in it?"

Eager to protect his son, Xi Mozhou raised his voice.

"Do you have any evidence? I think it's probably your family member who can see that you are not capable..."

"Who says I can't do it?"

A man can't say no. The person on the other end of the phone suddenly yelled. Xi Mozhou didn't tolerate him and continued to challenge him on the phone.

"Why are you feeling guilty? If you're sick, take medicine. Don't blame my Taotao for anything else."

"You... are a nest of snakes and rats. I shouldn't have called you."

At Yuanhang Group, Qu Taoben sat in front of the French window watching the rain. At some point, he fell asleep on the carpet beside him.

When he woke up, he found himself lying on the sofa with his head resting on Xi Mozhou's legs.

"Why are you here? When did you get back?"

"This is what we had for lunch? Why don't you go?"

Xi Mozhou answered the question irrelevantly, staring at the takeout box on the coffee table, with a cold air all over his body.

Qu Tao touched the tip of his nose and sat up from the sofa.

"Didn't we say it all on the phone? Assistant Wang misunderstood and acted on his own."

In order to hide his guilty conscience, Qu Tao put the packaging boxes on the coffee table into the trash can next to him while speaking.

"These things are awful, do you think I want to eat them? You left me to enjoy all the good food and drinks, and now you're blaming me?"

Seeing that the coldness on Xi Mozhou's body showed no sign of subsiding, Qu Tao took out a tissue and imitated Lin Daiyu's tone.

"You don't believe my words, but you believe his words faster than an imperial decree. It seems I was born to be humiliated!"

He had a tearful and aggrieved expression on his face. Although he knew that he was pretending, Xi Mozhou couldn't help but pull him into his arms and soften his expression.

"I don't mean to blame you. What do you want to eat tonight? I'll ask the kitchen to prepare it in advance."

"I want to eat you."

No wonder Xi Mozhou often said that he had a bad mouth. After Qu Tao said this in a fit of anger, he immediately wanted to slap himself.

"That's not what I meant. I meant that you decide."

"I agreed."

"?"

"Wash me clean at night and give me to you to eat."

Thicker skin, huh? He, Qu Tao, has never lost!

"Can you sprinkle some pepper and chili powder on it?"

Hurting the enemy by 800 will only hurt yourself by 1,000. Xi Mozhou curled his lips, his eyes full of pampering.

"Aren't you worried about getting too spicy?"

"Don't be afraid, you'll be the one who suffers first anyway."

Although it was not yet five o'clock, the office was dim because of the rain.

Qu Tao broke free from his arms, turned on the light, and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.

The rain was still falling, but it had lost its initial momentum.

"Aren't you going back to the company?"

Xi Mozhou followed and hugged him from behind.

"Well, I'll wait for you to go home together."

"Let's go now. I want to eat hot pot."

"Wait."

"what?"

Qu Tao turned his head and his lips brushed against his. Xi Mozhou took the opportunity to peck him lightly and took out a jewelry box from his suit pocket.

"I have a gift for you."

"Oh…"

Xi Mozhou took out a bracelet from inside and put it on his wrist. Qu Tao took a look at it and looked up at him.

"Why are you so nice to me all of a sudden?"

On this day, there were flowers, orders, and finally jewelry. Qu Tao was flattered but also a little uneasy.

Could this guy be behind me again, planning some big move?

"Xi Mozhou, I'm warning you, if you dare to snatch my orders again, I will never be as good-tempered and forgive you as I am now."

"Don't worry, it won't happen again. As long as you don't leave me, I can give you Difeng."

"No, just don't mess with my voyage anymore."

At Qinhai Villa, Qu Tao and Xi Mozhou got out of the car and met Shen Yichen who came out of the villa next door.

"What a coincidence? I was just about to go over to see if you guys were back. I bought some hot pot ingredients. How about we have hot pot together tonight?"

As expected, on rainy days, everyone thinks that eating hot pot is the most comfortable thing to do.

Qu Tao spoke before Xi Mozhou.

"It's a coincidence. We were originally planning to eat hot pot. On the way back, President Xi even asked the kitchen to prepare the dishes in advance. Why don't you come to our place, Teacher Shen?"

"No, let's come to my house. Qiu Mingxuan and Xu Cong are here too. They've already cooked the soup base."

"Well, I'll go get a few bottles of wine from the cellar."

"What kind of red wine should I take with hot pot?"

Xi Mozhou grabbed his wrist, and Qu Tao deliberately wanted to spoil the wine in his wine cellar with a smile on his face.

"Who said we were drinking red wine? I see we have brandy. You go in with Teacher Shen first, I'll be right there."

Looking at the figure that disappeared in the blink of an eye, Shen Yichen cast a meaningful look at Xi Mozhou.

"Is this not settled yet?"

"How is that possible? Don't you see who I am? If I can't handle it, will he come back to live with me?"

"You can blow as much as you want while no one is around."

Qu Tao arrived after a while, holding two boxes of brandy in his arms and a wooden box of red wine in his hand.

What a wasteful thing! These were all the wines he had been saving for several years and was planning to use for their wedding.

"I already said I don't drink red wine, why did you bring it here?"

Feeling heartbroken and physically aching, but unable to show it, Xi Mozhou was looking for an excuse and was about to take the red wine from his hand, but Qu Tao gently avoided him.

"Teacher Shen, I'm sorry to come to dinner empty-handed. Here's a gift for you."

Shen Yichen glanced at the origin and year on it, glanced at Xi Mozhou, and happily took it.

"This gift is exactly what I want, but it's a bit too expensive. How about this, if you have time on Saturday or the weekend, come over anytime and I'll cook for you myself."

Before Qu Tao could reply, Xi Mozhou spoke coldly.

"I have a great chef at home, so Mr. Shen should not worry about it."

"Teacher Shen, don't listen to him. I'll come over this Saturday to try your cooking."

Qu Tao had his own plans. The reason he gave Xi Mozhou such a priceless bottle of red wine was to get the truth about Xi Mozhou's confession to him.

If he didn't know the truth at that time, he would always feel uncomfortable.

Seeing Shen Yichen put away the red wine, Xi Mozhou couldn't help but whisper to Qu Tao and complain.

"spendthrift."

"Yes, Mr. Xi, be careful when you're with me. Don't let me squander all your wealth."

Qu Tao laughed heartlessly. Xi Mozhou wanted to say something else, but Qu Tao saw the call from Han Feng and stood up from the stool.

"Please scald some meat for me, the more the better. I have to answer a phone call."

"Whose phone number?"

"Crazy guy's phone call, I'm hungry, hurry up and help me boil some meat."

Xi Mozhou thought of the phone call from Pei Zechen at noon to accuse him, and grabbed his wrist.

"Eat first, and then call him back after you finish eating."
