Send you to the crematorium! Divorce and remarry the heir of a wealthy family
Chapter 15: Honesty
His arm was bandaged, and he looked well. He must have recovered well with the care of some of the best doctors in the city.
Mo Tingshen raised his eyes and looked at Yu Xiao.
His eyes were deep, making people feel a little embarrassed.
Yu Xiao was extremely nervous and gently placed the mugwort chicken soup in her hand next to his bedside table.
"This is the chicken soup with mugwort leaves that I made especially for you. Please try it and see if it suits your taste."
"Actually, I didn't mean to save you at that time." Mo Tingshen raised his chin slightly, and explained to Yu Xiao in a calm and distanced voice.
Yu Xiao was not so narcissistic as to think that Mo Tingshen did that to save her.
She said, "I understand. Anyway, I still have to thank you. Does your injury still hurt?"
Yu Xiao's bright and moving eyes made Mo Tingshen's heart tremble involuntarily.
An inexplicably familiar feeling came over him.
He asked, "What did you say that day?"
Yu Xiao looked at Mo Tingshen blankly, obviously not understanding the meaning of Mo Tingshen's words.
"When I held onto you tightly on the rooftop to prevent you from falling, I seemed to hear you say something to me, but the wind was so strong that day that I couldn't hear clearly."
Mo Tingshen's intuition told him that the sentence was crucial, so he asked Yu Xiao.
Only then did Yu Xiao recall that he had indeed spoken to Mo Tingshen that day.
She wanted to tell Mo Tingshen that she did not blame him.
But now, she had no intention of saying it.
Mo Tingshen didn't know that it was actually her who saved him that day, and that chaotic and lingering experience was originally a misunderstanding.
The tips of Yu Xiao's ears turned slightly red, but his expression looked unusually calm.
"Nothing special. I just felt like I was dying, so I just wanted to say some last words."
Mo Tingshen raised his eyebrows, obviously not convinced by what Yu Xiao said.
He narrowed his cold eyes and asked calmly, "Do you think I'm that easily fooled?"
Mo Tingshen's sudden chilling voice made Yu Xiao's face flash with a hint of unnaturalness.
Seeing that he seemed unhappy, Yu Xiao hurriedly explained: "It's not like that."
Since he no longer remembers it, why should Yu Xiao say more?
After all, it was just a mistake.
Yu Xiao also had no intention of letting Mo Tingshen take responsibility for this.
Besides, Mo Tingshen's identity was not something she could match.
Therefore, Yu Xiao decided not to tell Mo Tingshen the truth.
"If you don't like mugwort chicken soup, you can tell me what you want to drink. I don't have any other way to repay you. Cooking and making soup is my forte, so I want to express my gratitude."
"Have a good rest, I'll go back first."
Mo Tingshen didn't respond, so Yu Xiao naturally didn't want to disturb his rest.
After she finished speaking, she was about to get up and leave, but she heard Mo Tingshen's deep voice coming from behind her.
"The wound hurts, and I can't drink on my own."
Yu Xiao was stunned for a moment, turned to look at Mo Tingshen's arm wrapped in gauze, and instantly understood the meaning of Mo Tingshen's words.
Does Mo Tingshen want her to feed him?
Wouldn't this be a bit too ambiguous?
"Didn't you say thank you for saving you? If you didn't want to, you wouldn't have to go out of your way to bring me soup."
Mo Tingshen raised his head, looked at Yu Xiao, and said this.
Yu Xiao was also puzzled and didn't understand why Mo Tingshen suddenly became unhappy.
Maybe he felt that he was not sincere enough?
"Then let me feed you soup, Mr. Gu."
Yu Xiao put away his scattered thoughts, unconsciously looked at Mo Tingshen and asked.
Mo Tingshen raised his eyes slightly, his face expression cold, and simply replied: "Yeah."
Seeing that he did not refuse, Yu Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, scooped the soup into the bowl, and carefully began to feed Mo Tingshen.
"Have you ever taken care of Lu Zhiyao like this?"
When the bowl of soup was almost empty, Yu Xiao was about to ask Mo Tingshen if he needed more, but unexpectedly Mo Tingshen suddenly asked her this.
Yu Xiao froze, pursed her lips, and looked at Mo Tingshen without moving.
Seeing this, Mo Tingshen realized that his question was too direct and somewhat inappropriate.
He lowered his eyes: "The story between you and Lu Zhiyao has spread all over the circle."
"I know."
After all, Lu Zhiyao is from a wealthy family, and naturally everyone in his circle is either rich or noble.
Things in the circle cannot be hidden, and as Yu Xiao is the well-known suitor of Lu Zhiyao, the news naturally spread throughout the circle.
"They've all opened the betting, betting on when you'll be begging to go back to Lu Zhiyao."
"I didn't expect that you, Mr. Gu, are also concerned about these gossips."
Yu Xiao really didn't want to talk more about Lu Zhiyao, so when he mentioned this to Mo Tingshen, his tone was not very friendly.
Mo Tingshen didn't seem to notice Yu Xiao's sarcasm and said calmly, "I'm just curious, how could a woman love a man who doesn't care about her at all?"
"Mr. Gu, you should have seen it now, right? People who put love above all else often end up in a miserable situation."
"He's too playful and not suitable for you."
Mo Tingshen frowned slightly and reminded Yu Xiao in a calm tone.
Yu Xiao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a smile broke out on his face.
"Mr. Gu is right. Lu Zhiyao is indeed a playboy and not suitable for me. That's why I dumped him, not him dumping me first."
"Did Mr. Gu also participate in the betting?"
"Ah."
Yu Xiao's question was actually just to ease the current atmosphere.
Unexpectedly, Mo Tingshen actually participated in the bet and nodded solemnly.
Yu Xiao took a breath and asked, "How much did you bet?"
"Bet on when I'll return to Lu Zhiyao?"
"Never."
Mo Tingshen spoke frankly and told Yu Xiao directly the details of his bet.
Yu Xiao mistakenly thought Mo Tingshen meant that she would never be able to let go of Lu Zhiyao. Her face turned cold and she explained, "For me, Lu Zhiyao is already a thing of the past."
"That's right, that's why I bet you will never be with Lu Zhiyao."
Mo Tingshen's charming phoenix eyes met Yu Xiao's.
In an instant, Yu Xiao felt something gently touching his heart.
She stared at Mo Tingshen in a daze until Mo Tingshen's subordinates reported something. Yu Xiao suddenly came to her senses and realized that she had just stared at Mo Tingshen in a loss of composure.
She touched the back of her head and explained awkwardly, "Sorry, I...I didn't mean to..."
"It's fine."
Mo Tingshen waved his hand, telling Yu Xiao not to take it to heart.
"It's good that you know what you're pursuing."
"Yu Xiao, you are very good."
Mo Tingshen rarely speaks so much to a woman.
Perhaps it was the sight of Yu Xiao blooming freely on the stage of the bar that day that briefly attracted his attention and made him involuntarily start paying attention to Yu Xiao.
