However, Mu Yeli gave a faint smile to the onlookers with lovesick expressions, then took Ye Ning to the car.
Ye Ning settled into the car, and Mu Yeli noticed that she was barefoot with a bit of dust on her feet. Her fair toes had turned dark, not a particularly bad look. But the sight of the scratches on her feet still made him furrow his eyebrows.
This woman...
Could she seriously not take care of herself? Was she trying to get herself killed by being so carefree?
"Why aren’t you wearing any shoes!?"
Ye Ning looked at him, "Aren’t you busy spending your honeymoon with Ye Zi? Why are you here?"
A dark wave swept across Mu Yeli’s face.
She had the nerve to say that. He had spent a whole hour looking for her after she ran off.
But, looking at her now...
Was she feeling jealous?
With that thought, his anger surprisingly subsided quite a bit.
Besides, today was still her birthday after all.
But now, how were they going to celebrate it?
All the plans he had made were ruined by Ye Zi. His annoyance at Ye Zi was piling up again. Grabbing Ye Ning’s hand, he said, "Let’s go, we’re going out for dinner."
"No." freewebnσvel.cѳm
"Aren’t you hungry?"
"Even if I am, I refuse to eat with you."
"You..." Repeating to himself, Mu Yeli decided to let it slide. It was her birthday after all, he shouldn’t argue with her.
Suddenly, Ye Ning noticed a stall below, "Alright, I want to eat this."
Following her gaze, Mu Yeli saw a shabby-looking jelly stall with questionable hygiene.
"Why would you eat this? I’ve booked a table at the restaurant."
"I’m not going, you go enjoy it with Ye Zi. I am eating this," Ye Ning said, as she yanked at the car door handle. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Grinding his teeth, Mu Yeli finally gave in and told the driver, "Stop the car."
A luxury car pulled to a stop in front of the stall, attracting quite a few onlookers.
Two elegantly dressed people, as if a fairy and a deity from a painting, rested at the roadside eating a bowl of jelly. The sight was incredibly striking.
The stall owner, frightened by the spectacle, took extra care to prepare the jelly cleaner and larger than usual, fearing he might offend these important-looking customers.
Ye Ning cared little about her image. After all, the man she loved was Ye Zi. No matter how she behaved, he wouldn’t care. So, she continued to eat heartily.
Mu Yeli just watched her, finding it amusing how much she was savouring the food. At that moment, he started to feel quite hungry himself.
His stomach rumbled, an obvious sign of hunger.
She looked up at him, "Ah, you’re hungry too? Want some? It tastes pretty good, should I order one for you?"
Mu Yeli frowned, "No."
Ye Ning smiled, picking up a piece of jelly with her chopsticks, "Come on, try a bite. It’s actually quite tasty."
"I said I don’t want any!"
"Come on, come on." Ye Ning once again nudged the jelly towards him.
Feeling irritated, Mu Yeli relented, "Fine, fine, I’ll have some."
He tasted it and found it acceptable.
He had no idea why she found it so appetising.
Watching her eat, he developed an appetite and helped himself to some of it.
Seeing the bowl was almost empty, and having developed quite a taste for it, he sighed. He saw that Ye Ning seemed to be in a better mood and suddenly took out a velvet box.
A bright and transparent stone appeared before her eyes.
Ye Ning stared at the stone in surprise as the man in front of her impatiently uttered, "A gift."
