Chapter 262: Your Little Girlfriend Called Again
“You are only allowed to look but not to eat.”
He had told her earlier that she was not allowed to order seafood. He had already reached his limit with all the prawns they’d had that day.
The corners of Ye Erruo’s lips twitched. “Eight crabs?”
Mo Jiangye glanced at the plate of crabs. There were ten of them, yet she wanted to eat eight?
“There’s no room for discussion.”
“Six crabs?”
“This is delicious.” He placed a soft glutinous rice ball into her mouth.
“Five crabs?”
Mo Jiangye elegantly cut the food on his plate and said, “There is no room for discussion even for one crab.”
“I’ve seen other women eating prawns and seafood every day and they are fine.” He had been extremely strict with her recently.
“Those are other women. You are my woman.”
Ye Erruo let out a sigh. She stopped pestering him about this overbearing request, as she was indeed famished. Therefore, she began to eat seriously.
“After dinner, let’s head out for a walk,” he said.
She hummed in acknowledgment.
Mo Jiangye furrowed his brows. He thought she was angry after seeing her eating quietly and ignoring him. Helpless, he reached out and brought the plate of crabs over. He chose the smallest crab and began to help her peel it.
Finally, he picked out the meat from every single one of the crab legs with overflowing crab roe.
“Just a little.” He placed the plate of crab roe and crab meat in front of her.
Ye Erruo was astonished. She had thought that he would be eating it himself.
“How are you going to thank me?” His voice suddenly rang over her head.
“What?”
“I allowed you to have one piece of crab. How are you planning to thank me?” He was childish and arrogant yet lovable.
“…”
He sipped on some red wine. All of a sudden, he held the back of her head and passed the warm red wine from his mouth into hers. “This is the red wine you wanted to drink.”
“Can’t we just have a decent meal?”
Mo Jiangye raised his lips into a smile and used his thumb to wipe away the stain at the corner of her lips before teasing her. “Alright.”
It took the two of them roughly 40 minutes to finish their meal.
Buzz! The phone that had been tossed on the bed rang once again while Mo Jiangye was in the bathroom.
Ye Erruo glanced at the phone number and found it familiar. It was the number that had called earlier.
She smiled coldly as she answered the call.
“Brother Jiangye, I just checked. There are no cabs near the airport I will be arriving at. I will have to walk quite a long way before I can call for a cab. I have a ton of luggage and I will not be able to carry it over. Can you please pick me up?”
“No,” Ye Erruo said coldly.
“Why is it you again? Where is Brother Jiangye?”
“He isn’t here.”
Upon hearing that Mo Jiangye wasn’t there, Qing Ning let out a sigh of relief before returning to her true self. “Ye Erruo, exactly what kind of game are you playing? Why are you not living a good life with your boyfriend, Lin Jingxuan? Why are you pestering Brother Jiangye now? Do not think that I have no idea what you are up to.”
Ye Erruo cut her nails as she said, “Ah, it seems like you know quite a bit about me and Lin Jingxuan.”
She had never met this lady before, yet she knew a lot about her issues. Ha!
“Aren’t you pestering Brother Jiangye because you want to help your boyfriend? You scheming woman! Do not think that you can fool everyone else just because you managed to fool Brother Jiangye.”
“I only have a husband now. I do not have a boyfriend,” she said lazily.
“You…”
“Who are you talking to on the phone?” Mo Jiangye pushed open the bathroom door and walked out.
Ye Erruo leaned against the cabinet, wearing a bathrobe that reached all the way to her knees. Her calves were exposed, as she was wearing slippers that were way bigger than her feet. She was exuding a languid aura all over, so one couldn’t help but want to caress her head like stroking a grand Persian cat.
“Your little girlfriend called again.”
