Shi Nianyao’s hand followed his onto the steering wheel.
Then he started up the car and they drove away.
She turned to stare at him, mesmerized.
After a while, he finally said, “Yao Yao.”
“Uh huh?”
“If you don’t want us to get into an accident, you should look ahead.”
Shi Nianyao mumbled, “Oh.”
But even then, she found her gaze drifting towards him eventually.
There was only so much staring he could take before saying, “Yao Yao.”
“Uh huh?”
“I want to kiss you.”
Shi Nianyao: …!
Her face turned scarlet immediately as she quickly looked ahead, at the same time trying to withdraw her hand.
Mo Xicheng was holding on tightly and wouldn’t let go of it, however.
Shi Nianyao: …
She cleared her throat and said in a serious tone, “No, you can’t do that. We have to pull over first.”
Mo Xicheng: …
He looked ahead and, after a brief silence, suddenly said, “I never felt that the restaurant was this far away.”
Shi Nianyao turned beet red at his comment.
The corners of his mouth slightly curled into a faint smile, and he seemed satisfied finally.
Suddenly the car turned quiet. Feeling somewhat restless, Shi Nianyao turned on the music.
Unexpectedly, the music in the CD player was actually one of his own songs.
She raised an eyebrow and said in a teasing tone, “Male idol, I didn’t realize you were this narcissistic, listening to your own songs.”
Without batting an eyelid at her comment, he started, “Yao Yao.”
“Uh huh?”
She thought he was going to offer an explanation, but on the contrary, he said, “You ought to be calling me ‘hubby’ from now on.”
Shi Nianyao: …!
Her eyes widened as her jaw dropped. She tried to say the word but found it terribly embarrassing to do so.
The reality was that nowadays “hubby” seemed to be a common term people used when talking about male celebrities. They would frequently say “my hubby this” and “my hubby that,” not to mention the fact that Mo Xicheng was a dream lover for many fans and a prince charming.
There was a time when she had daydreamed about her idol being exclusively hers, but it was only now, when the moment had finally arrived, that she realized the weight the word carried.
She widened her eyes and stared at him, forgetting that she had just been teasing him a moment ago. Now she was only focused on how to bring herself to call him hubby.
As she was struggling with this new idea, he finally said, “I’m just teasing you, you’re being so serious.”
Shi Nianyao: …!!
How could she not be serious?!
This was indeed her husband.
In the blink of an eye, she snapped out of her dazed state. She immediately wondered why it was that she seemed to be so easily fooled by Mo Xicheng.
She retaliated at once, “But shouldn’t you be changing the way you address me too?”
No sooner than she had said this, the words came out with ease at the slight movement of his mouth, “Wifey.”
Wifey.
Those words, in his low and resonant voice, carried with them a charisma and charm that could somehow touch her heart in an uncanny way.
Causing a numbing sensation to spread throughout her body.
She smiled helplessly as her face started to burn.
She raised her hands and covered her cheeks with them.
Ahhhhhhh… So shy.
