Chapter 191 You're teasing me again!
Li Chenxu had said earlier that he might not be able to come back to have lunch with Mu Xiaoyu, but he did come back at noon. However, it seemed that Li Chenxu was in a hurry to come back. When he came back, Mu Xiaoyu was already sitting at the table, about to eat. She was stunned when she saw Li Chenxu come back.
"Why did you suddenly come back? Weren't you supposed to be very busy today?"
Li Chenxu handed his coat to the maid, then quickly walked to Mu Xiaoyu's side, bent down and hugged her. As if that wasn't enough, he kissed her cheek before saying, "I missed you, I wanted to see you, so I came back."
Mu Xiaoyu felt that Li Chenxu's mouth was as sweet as if he had been eating candy every day, so sweet that it touched her heart.
She smiled with delight, then pointed to the seat opposite her and said, "Hey, let's eat first. Watch me while you eat, doesn't that make you more hungry?"
Although it was said in a joking tone, Li Chenxu seemed to take it seriously, nodding and saying earnestly, "You're right, I have a better appetite when I eat with you than when I eat out..."
At this point, Li Chenxu suddenly paused, a hint of worry appearing between his handsome brows. Then he said to Mu Xiaoyu, "Xiaoyu, I haven't been exercising as much lately. Do you think... if I gain weight, you'll dislike me? After all, I'm eating more than before."
In fact, Li Chenxu is the kind of person who can eat a lot and never gain weight, but he dares not say this out loud. Mu Xiaoyu has very high requirements for her diet every day in order to control her figure, and if she knew this, he would be doomed.
Upon hearing Li Chenxu say such a serious statement, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"I didn't expect you to be worried about these things. Let me make this clear: if you get fat, I won't want you anymore. After all... didn't you say before that I'm the kind of superficial person who judges people by their looks?"
Mu Xiaoyu is a very vengeful girl. Last time, Li Chenxu teased her for being the kind of person who judges by appearance, and now it's her turn to retaliate.
Li Chenxu raised an eyebrow at Mu Xiaoyu, but wasn't angry. He just gave Mu Xiaoyu a meaningful smile and then remained silent.
Mu Xiaoyu was most afraid of Li Chenxu's secretive demeanor; seeing this, a bad premonition immediately washed over her. Her throat tightened, and she couldn't help but ask, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
"Hmm? What should I say at this point?"
Li Chenxu remained calm, silent, and looked at Mu Xiaoyu with a puzzled expression.
Seeing him like this, Mu Xiaoyu didn't know what to say. She felt that Li Chenxu was becoming more and more mysterious...
Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but mutter to herself twice. The next second, as if she had thought of something, she quickly looked up at Li Chenxu and said, "By the way, since the Li family didn't ask me to send them those things, where are they now? You didn't... throw them away, did you?"
The thought of that outcome made Mu Xiaoyu feel a pang of heartache. While that money might not mean much to Li Chenxu, it was a huge sum for her!
Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's pained expression, Li Chenxu couldn't help but want to laugh. However, he was tempted to tease Mu Xiaoyu, so he suppressed the urge and pretended to be troubled as he looked at Mu Xiaoyu: "I was afraid you would be sad, so I threw those things away... Xiaoyu, you won't blame me, will you?"
If Li Chenxu had dared to do that before, Mu Xiaoyu would definitely have given him a good 'punishment'. But just now, Li Chenxu said he was afraid she would be hurt. He was doing it for her own good, so she couldn't possibly scold him instead, could she?
The thought of all that money she had lost made Mu Xiaoyu feel extremely distressed.
Immediately, Mu Xiaoyu became somewhat depressed. Seeing Mu Xiaoyu like this, Li Chenxu couldn't help but burst out laughing.
His smile made Mu Xiaoyu's gaze towards Li Chenxu grow even more mournful: "What are you laughing at... I know this money means nothing to you, but it's still money! You evil capitalists have no idea how we ordinary people feel..."
Mu Xiaoyu's lips were pouting, like a child's, and you could hang an oil can on them.
Li Chenxu's smile grew even brighter. He raised an eyebrow at Mu Xiaoyu and said, "You're my wife, I'm a capitalist, so what are you? Besides... you need to think about it from a different perspective. Everything I have is yours, isn't it?"
"That's true... but it's not the same! After all, it's money I earned through my own hard work..."
Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's increasingly sad expression, Li Chenxu finally stopped teasing her. He reached out and ruffled Mu Xiaoyu's hair, saying with a smile, "Alright, don't be sad. I was just kidding you. I didn't throw away any of the things you bought. I put them all at Liang Yi's place."
"Why didn't you say so earlier! You're teasing me again!" Mu Xiaoyu slapped Li Chenxu's hand away and glared at him fiercely. Unfortunately, her glare had no intimidating power at all. In Li Chenxu's eyes, it looked more like she was being coquettish.
His smile deepened, especially as he looked at Mu Xiaoyu's vivid expressions, which made him even more eager.
If I had more time at lunchtime, I would have loved to lure Mu Xiaoyu to my bed!
Li Chenxu took a deep breath and suppressed his desires.
Li Chenxu had some business at the company in the afternoon, so he left after lunch. However, before leaving, he gave Liang Yi's contact information to Mu Xiaoyu. He originally planned to wait until he finished dealing with his company matters before accompanying Mu Xiaoyu to pick up the things, but Mu Xiaoyu couldn't wait and insisted on going by herself.
In the end, Li Chenxu was so pestered by Mu Xiaoyu that he had no choice but to give her Liang Yi's address and phone number.
Mu Xiaoyu went out with Li Chenxu. Since she was going to SQ in the afternoon, she didn't ask the family driver to take her to Liang Yi's place and drove there herself.
Before she left, Li Chenxu had also told Liang Yi to wait for her at home.
Liang Yi's job was much easier than Li Chenxu's, and he had more free time. After receiving Li Chenxu's call, he waited at home for Mu Xiaoyu to come over.
After waiting for three or four hours without seeing Mu Xiaoyu, he couldn't hold back any longer and called Li Chenxu: "Chenxu, it's been several hours, why hasn't Mu Xiaoyu come yet?"
