Chapter 63 - 63: So This Is What Jealousy Feels Like
Seeing his rude behavior, Gu Qimiao tugged at his clothes under the table, hinting for him to calm down. But for Mo Ming, "calm down" was never a phrase in his vocabulary. Instead, he smiled and turned to her, saying, "Baby, what would you like to eat?"
The word "baby" sent chills down Gu Qimiao's spine. She merely glared at him with annoyance, while Shen Yanchen watched coldly, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Fortunately, Xiaoxiao lightened the awkward atmosphere by constantly chatting with Gu Qimiao.
All the dishes were ordered by Gu Moming, choosing the most expensive ones rather than catering to anyone's preferences.
While he was writing the order, Gu Qimiao was chatting with Xiaoxiao and didn't see what he wrote. When the table was filled with seven or eight dishes and the waiter continued bringing more food, Gu Qimiao asked, "How much did you order? This is enough already!"
Gu Moming turned and gave her a wicked smile, unexpectedly raising his hand and letting his thumb brush her lips, saying, "Look at all that oil."
Gu Moming's affectionate demeanor made Gu Qimiao embarrassed immediately, while Shen Yanchen's face grew darker.
Gu Qimiao pushed his hand away, hurriedly grabbed a napkin and wiped her mouth randomly, then said to the waiter serving food, "Sorry, you don't need to make the rest of the dishes, this is enough."
The waiter awkwardly smiled and said, "But the rest of the dishes are already being prepared..."
Shen Yanchen waved his hand, "It's okay, continue serving."
Gu Moming chuckled in satisfaction and patted her head as if comforting her, "Just eat. Why worry about that? Come on, eat some meat, you look thin!"
Gu Qimiao frowned and moved her bowl away, "I'll serve myself! It's all fatty meat."
At this moment, Xiaoxiao cautiously asked from the opposite side, "Gigi, is he your boyfriend?"
"Ah?! No! He's my brother!" Gu Qimiao denied it quickly, glancing at Shen Yanchen in the process.
Her strong denial made Gu Moming unhappy. He grabbed a piece of fatty meat with his chopsticks and dropped it into her bowl, "Less talking, more eating!"
Xiaoxiao giggled, glancing at Gu Moming with slightly flushed cheeks, then hurriedly lowered her head to scoop rice into her bowl.
They only managed to eat two layers of the dishes, naturally leaving the food unfinished.
Shen Yanchen answered several phone calls during the meal and ended it abruptly.
As they left the restaurant, Gu Qimiao originally walked side by side with Xiaoxiao. After chatting over the meal, their relationship had gotten closer.
But suddenly, Gu Moming stepped forward and pulled Gu Qimiao to his side, saying to Shen Yanchen, "Young Master Shen, thank you for the meal today!"
Shen Yanchen glanced at her snuggling against Gu Moming, the sight piercing his eyes. Without saying a word, he turned and walked to his car, the hand holding his car key turning white-knuckled...
So this is what jealousy feels like.
Gu Qimiao looked at his back, feeling somewhat aware of his unhappiness. She knew he didn't like Gu Moming, as they had never gotten along when Shen Yanchen lived with the Gu family.
Moreover, Gu Moming's actions could be aggravating; he tended to do things more in your face when he knew they'd annoy you.
Xiaoxiao looked at Gu Qimiao and then at her brother walking away sullenly. She said to Gu Qimiao, "Gigi, wait for me a second." Saying that, she ran over and called Shen Yanchen, "Big brother, I'll go back to school myself later. I want to hang out with Gigi for a bit."
Shen Yanchen nodded, took her bag out of the car and handed it to her, then circled to the driver's seat without greeting anyone, and left directly.
What do you think?
