Novel Full Chapter 1387: Nianyao and Mo Xicheng (60)
For someone who had eaten all sorts of delicacies in his life, any delicious food would be a norm to him.
Besides, that sort of spicy soup was nothing like a high-quality clear soup. But right there and then, the taste of the fishball was exceptionally delicious.
Especially when he saw how Shi Nianyao’s eyes were sparkling, he felt all the more that the spicy soup was very tempting.
As she ate, Shi Nianyao said, “Do you know that I used to salivate whenever I saw people drinking spicy soup by the road? I always wanted to do it too. But my older brother and father were very strict and wouldn’t let me. So whenever I was unhappy, I’d take my own pocket money, run away to a spicy soup stall and order loads of spicy soup. After I drink the soup, I feel all good! Hahaha, try it. I’ve always liked the spicy soup from this shop.”
As she kept talking, Mo Xicheng lowered his head and ate with her.
Very soon, they finished the bowl of spicy soup. He looked at her red luscious lips, stung by the heat of the spicy soup, and felt like he somehow hadn’t had enough.
But his stomach was bloated.
As he contemplated this odd feeling, Shi Nianyao got onto her feet and patted her stomach. She remarked, “Ah, another satisfying meal!”
Mo Xicheng: …
He quietly picked up the empty food container and threw it into the bin. Taking Shi Nianyao’s hand, he said, “Let’s take a walk and digest the food.”
The girl nodded.
They took a slow stroll around the garden.
As they strolled, Shi Nianyao started, “Mo Xicheng.”
“Uh huh?”
“Actually, as long as I’m with you, I feel blissful. It doesn’t matter what I eat.”
Mo Xicheng: …
Mo Xicheng turned towards her. Her face was pure and radiant under the light of the sun. She continued, “Mo Xicheng, there’s no need for you to decorate private rooms, because just the act of having a meal with you is a joyful thing. I don’t care how or where we eat.”
Her heart ached. It ached that her male idol would put in so much effort just to make her happy.
And in the end, it had been spoilt by Mo Zhi.
Her words touched him deeply and in a way that he had never been touched before.
He turned suddenly and pulled her into his embrace.
–
In the afternoon, after taking Shi Nianyao home, Mo Xicheng drove to the office. He had a discussion with his manager about future developments.
He had decided that he would no longer give in to Yao Lili’s requests. From now on, they would go their own ways and live their own lives.
Initially, he had thought that given today’s fight with Yao Lili, his life from this point would be free from her interference. But he could not have imagined that following this episode, Yao Lili would launch another attack.
He wouldn’t have thought that there would be a mother in this world who would hate her own son this much. He finally realized that Yao Lili wasn’t someone who he could easily completely dissociate from, like how he had first thought.
This served to hasten the estrangement between the two of them.
Because that very night, Shi Nianyao received a call from Yao Lili.
The latter sounded like she was sobbing as she said, “Ms. Shi, can you come to the hospital?”
Shi Nianyao paused and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“My grown son is not listening to his mother. He’s an adult now, I can’t dictate what he can or can’t have. I know that I can’t stop you two, but there are a few things that I wish to say privately to you in person.”
