”She has been punished. ”She's disabled, so she can't stay in this city anymore. Her life in the future will be incomparably difficult. I think this is thousands of times more painful than dying!” At this point, she paused and looked at him hesitantly, hesitating to speak.
”What are you trying to say?” he asked, seeing her hesitation.
”Nothing …” ”Eat the meat!” She forced a fake smile as she shook her head and stuffed a piece of meat into her mouth. Immediately, her cheeks and teeth started to burn as she squinted with satisfaction and raised her thumb at him.
The meat was plump but not greasy. It was sticky and melting instantly. It was truly an endless delicacy.
”You didn't finish your words just now.” However, he did not eat. Instead, he placed the chopsticks on the small plate and fixed his gaze on her, as if he would never give up.
”Really! Eat! In front of delicious food, eat more and talk less! ”Hurry up, hurry up!” She took a piece of meat and put it in his bowl, urging him on.
She would not be so foolish as to continue speaking to him from the bottom of her heart.
She didn't want him to see through her.
Besides, it was not suitable for him to say something that he wanted to say in front of him.
What she wanted to say just now was that treating the symptoms and not the root of the problem was completely useless.
If he destroyed Wu Mei, millions of Wu Mei would appear.
As long as this sinful slave market did not cease, countless innocent and pitiful people would be abducted and sold to this place, and thus begin to walk towards the destruction of their lives.
He was the owner of half of this place, and the business here was jointly managed by him and JASON. Perhaps the time when he held this damn auction was when he made the decision on a whim, if he really said those words, wouldn't he be bringing about his own embarrassment?
Even if he was bewitched by her now, he wouldn't be so muddleheaded as to not hesitate to close the auction for her sake, right?
Yesterday, when she went onstage, she knew that the people sitting on the stage were all either rich or noble. Even if they were influential people in the world, they would only hold such auctions to get benefits for their other shameful businesses.
It involved a lot of things, so how could it not be held?
No matter how childish she was, she wouldn't be so childish.
His heart chilled as he looked at her playful look. His eyes, which were originally blazing with fire, instantly dimmed down bit by bit.
Obviously, she wasn't as moved as he was.
Even though he had done so much for her, she hadn't been moved at all.
She clearly had something to say, but she didn't want to tell him. Just holding onto it like that made him feel uncomfortable.
However, he did not force her, nor did he say anything else. He thought, maybe she was tricked too miserably, so she would not easily believe him for a short period of time, right?
All he had to do now was be a little more patient, a little more concerned, and treat her well.
He believed that one day, over time, she would realize how good he was to her and would slowly open her heart to his love.
Thinking of the day that would come when she would obediently lie in his embrace like a little lamb, quietly listening to his heartbeat, her ice-cold heart gradually warmed again.
Hope, in itself, was a gift from God. He should not be in too much of a hurry, he just had to wait in peace, waiting for this woman to become Mo Zixiao's woman.
It wasn't just his body. His body needed to connect with her entire heart.
The moment her mood improved, her appetite increased. Seeing that she was enjoying her meal, she immediately raised her chopsticks to pick up the piece of meat that she had carried into the bowl. Then, she stuffed it into her mouth and started to chew with relish.
”…” She looked at him, stunned. Stunned.
Is there a mistake? How could he steal food from her bowl?
Their relationship did not seem to be close. So close?
Besides, wasn't he always cool and handsome?
How come you're acting like a kid now?
Oh my god! Did she really need to keep changing her attitude so quickly? She, Xia Xinxin, was too old and did not have the ability to experience this kind of thrill several times!
”Why are you looking at me? Am I too good-looking? more attractive than these delicacies? ” He saw her stop in the air with a pair of chopsticks and look at his hair. Stunned, she immediately realized that she had indeed lost her composure. She immediately coughed dryly twice before retracting the smile on the corner of her mouth. She returned to her previous indifferent attitude as she coolly stared at her.
”I... My heart is not good. ” Xia Xinxin was speechless. She dropped the chopsticks and continued to eat. Every time she took a bite out of the dish, she was afraid that he would reach out and snatch the food from her chopsticks.
She felt that such things could only happen between couples who loved each other. If he did so, it would be strange to her and she would not be able to adapt or accept it.
She didn't dare imagine what she would be like.
Eh! Just thinking about it made his skin crawl!
Fortunately, he had settled down and was eating earnestly. Although the atmosphere was a little heavy, it made her feel a lot more at ease.
But at the same time, he felt somewhat conflicted in his heart.
In the past, she had planned to capture his heart so that he could follow her orders and help her out of her predicament, but now she didn't dare to do so anymore.
