Shi Nianyao was completely dumbfounded.
Why was it so impossible to respond to the way her idol talked?
She cleared her throat and then continued, “Ahem! Mo Xicheng, what birthday present would you like?”
He gave her a look and replied, “You really don’t know what I want?”
Shi Nianyao: …
She suddenly felt that it was impossible to have a conversation with the man today.
This guy was just being silly, it was a nightmare to manage him right now.
In the past, before she had had the chance to interact with him, she had always felt that he was too melancholic and gloomy. But having interacted with him now, she had discovered that the man was simply…
She tried to find the right word to describe him, but nothing seemed appropriate.
She couldn’t call him a pervert. After all, they had gotten married. Mo Xicheng had always teased her with words but in reality, he had never done much to her.
Thinking of it, the both of them had been secretly married for some time now. Apart from getting themselves registered, they had not done much in reality.
Tonight…
The moment she thought of what would happen at night, her eyes lit up and she couldn’t help but feel the excitement.
As she bit her lip and lost herself in those thoughts, her cell phone suddenly rang.
She looked down at the screen. It was her mom. Picking up immediately, she had said right after, “Hello.” She heard her mother’s voice. “Yao Yao, your dad and I are in Beijing. Don’t stay at your brother’s apartment. Come home. I’ve got lots of presents for you.”
Shi Nianyao: …
She wanted to ask if she could stay out for the night.
But neglecting her parents to be with Mo Xicheng seemed too unfilial.
Besides, her father would surely come and take her away.
Hence, she pulled a long face.
She turned and looked at Mo Xicheng. He paused for a moment and then quietly made an about-turn.
Shi Nianyao: …
She hung up and looked at him. “Idol, I- no, I mean they—”
Before she could finish, Mo Xicheng interrupted, “Aunty and Uncle have to be attended now. We have time ahead of us. No hurry.”
Shi Nianyao nodded immediately.
The fact was that if only they could announce their relationship, they could be together openly.
Mo Xicheng took Shi Nianyao to her family home. She looked at him and asked, “Would you like to come in for a bit?”
He paused for a moment and then said, “No, Aunty and Uncle haven’t been here for some time and I’m sure they have lots to talk about with you.”
Shi Nianyao pondered briefly and nodded.
After saying goodbye to Mo Xicheng, she lightly skipped back into the villa.
Si Jingyu and Shi Jinyan were already home and unpacking.
When Shi Nianyao walked in, she saw that her elder brother Shi Xun was there too, with his wife and Little Cherry. She greeted everyone and sat by the side.
Shi Xun threw her a glance and then said, “Dad, Mum, something happened but fortunately it didn’t turn into a disaster. Still, I should tell you about it.”
Shi Nianyao’s head snapped up when she heard this. Shi Xun continued, “A few nights ago Yao Lili was hospitalized. She asked to see Nianyao. Mom, Li Shu from the Mo family is your best friend. What do you think of this?”
