Chapter 1118: Even More Handsome
To put it bluntly, there’s no man who doesn’t like playing thrilling games.
But when a man respects a woman, or because of a special profession, that’s different.
Zhang Shishi is in the entertainment industry, and it wasn’t easy for her to find a foothold, to get good roles and gain a good reputation.
How could Mu Shaochen bear her suffering even the slightest harm?
Zhang Shishi’s heart felt warm and full of gratitude.
"Shao Chen, you’re so good to me!"
She leaned closer and kissed his lips.
Mu Shaochen continued driving, but he was in an excellent mood.
This man was good to her and very kind to her grandmother too.
Zhang Shishi thought, when she achieved success, she’d find a place where no one knew them, so they could be happy and do whatever they wanted. Wouldn’t that be wonderful?
...
Xue Xiangtong was driving, with Mu Shaojie eating a packed dinner in the passenger seat.
"Sixth Brother, is it tasty?"
"It’s passable, not as good as what you make." Mu Shaojie didn’t find this childhood restaurant particularly special.
Xue Xiangtong glanced at him: "I’ll make it for you when we get home."
"Do you find this place tasty?" Mu Shaojie asked her.
"I eat everything, I’m not picky." Xue Xiangtong laughed, "The only thing I’m picky about is choosing handsome guys to like!"
Mu Shaojie: "..."
"Alright, alright, in the future I’ll only like Sixth Brother." Xue Xiangtong quickly soothed the man who was about to blow his top.
"If there’s someone in the world more handsome than me, you can like them too." Mu Shaojie was bafflingly confident in himself.
"There definitely is." Xue Xiangtong huffed.
Mu Shaojie looked at her, really?
"Our son!" Xue Xiangtong blurted out.
The car fell silent instantly.
Mu Shaojie, who was eating, stopped chewing.
Xue Xiangtong’s hand on the wheel shook slightly; she knew she had misspoken.
Maybe she said it unconsciously, or perhaps she was just joking, but how would Mu Shaojie feel about it?
"Sixth Brother, I’m sorry, I’m just talking nonsense..."
When they finally reached the red light, Xue Xiangtong stopped, having built up her courage for quite some time before daring to look at him.
"You know I always speak without thinking, don’t take it to heart."
Xue Xiangtong knew he wanted marriage, not children. How could she bring this up in front of him?
The two had agreed on this when they first started dating.
Mu Shaojie initially thought the food from this place wasn’t that great, but now he found it suddenly hard to swallow.
He said nothing and went to dispose of what he was eating.
He stood by the trash can, considering whether to take out a cigarette.
But as a public figure, he rarely smoked.
Only when feeling troubled, he might occasionally have one.
"Sixth Brother, get in, the light’s about to turn green. We can’t stop here." Xue Xiangtong hadn’t expected him to get out here.
"You can drive on, I still have things to sort out." Mu Shaojie turned and left.
Xue Xiangtong watched his back as tears couldn’t help but flow down her face.
She knew, Sixth Brother’s sensitive nerves were affected by what she had said.
She shouldn’t have spoken without thinking.
When the light turned green, her car hadn’t moved.
The car behind kept honking, urging her to drive away.
Xue Xiangtong drove forward, her tear-filled eyes causing her to steer onto the greenbelt, fortunately without hitting anyone, although she was startled.
When the traffic police arrived, they handled the situation, asking her, "Senior, are you hurt? Do you feel unwell anywhere?"
"My heart hurts a bit." Xue Xiangtong sighed.
