Extreme Pampering After Marriage

Chapter 51: One Dares to Say It, and the Other Dares to Listen

Xu Youyou stood up and saw a bowl of green vegetable noodles with a fried egg on top.

Mo Shenbai set the tray down on the table before he looked at the watch on his wrist. It was not even midnight yet. “Come and eat the Longevity Noodles.”

Xu Youyou walked to the table and sat down. She looked at the bowl of noodles before she looked at him and asked, “Did you ask the chef to cook for me?”

Mo Shenbai’s eyes flashed for a moment. He did not even look at her as he said faintly, “Hmm.”

“Thank you.” Xu Youyou picked the chopsticks up and took a bite of the noodles. Her eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Xu Youyou’s reaction did not escape Mo Shenbai’s notice. He asked, “What’s wrong?”

Xu Youyou swallowed the food in her mouth before she shook her head. “It’s nothing. It’s just that the noodles taste different from usual.”

‘Usually, the noodles the chef cooks aren’t so salty…’

An unnatural expression flitted quickly across Mo Shenbai’s face. He cleared his throat and said calmly, “Take your time to eat.”

Then, he straightened his back before he walked toward the door. When his hand touched the doorknob, he thought of something. He turned to look at her and called out, “Xu Youyou…”

......

“Hmm?” Xu Youyou looked up at him, puzzled.

Mo Shenbai’s eyes were warm as he said with a hint of tenderness in his voice, “Happy birthday…”

Thud!

Xu Youyou was still in a trance after the door closed. Her heart felt like a pot of boiling water, and her entire body was hot. After a long time, she put the chopsticks down and rubbed her round face with both hands as she muttered to herself, “Xu Youyou, get a hold of yourself! He only sees you as his friend’s sister.”

…

Xu Youyou was still awake at one in the morning. When she heard faint noises from downstairs, she grew curious and went out to have a look.

She was surprised when she saw an annoyed Xu Jialu lying on the couch. She hurriedly walked over and asked, “Brother, why are you here?”

Xu Jialu looked at the ceiling with an expression of despair as he said, “Don’t ask. There’s no point in talking about it.”

Xu Jialu did not need to say anything, but Xu Youyou knew her brother must have been scolded by their parents.

Xu Jialu had beaten Lin Yin and was brought to the police station. The Lin family definitely would not let the matter go and would definitely complain to their parents.

Xu Youyou also knew that her parents were likely not angry that Xu Jialu had beaten Lin Yin. They were angry because Xu Jialu had acted rashly. After all, if the Lin family pursued the matter, it would be troublesome.

After pouring Xu Jialu a glass of water, Xu Youyou took a seat next to Xu Jialu. She said, “Who told you to beat people up?”

Xu Jialu glanced at her and retorted, “Who do you think I beat him up for? You’re so heartless.”

Xu Youyou pushed the glass of water toward him before she said in a sweet voice, “I’m not saying you shouldn’t beat him up, but you shouldn’t beat people up in public. At the very least, you should do it in a dark and hidden place and put a gunny sack on him before you give him a good beating. At that time, even if he wanted to report to the police, he wouldn’t be able to name the culprit.”

Coincidentally, Mo Shenbai, who had just come downstairs, heard these words. He had thought Xu Youyou was innocent and obedient, who knew she had such a side to her?

Meanwhile, Xu Jialu’s eyes brightened immediately as soon as he heard Xu Youyou’s words. He said praisingly, “Youyou, you’re really smart! Alright, I’ll do that next time!”

Mo Shenbai’s eyebrows twitched. ‘This pair of brother and sister! One dares to say it, and the other dares to listen!’

Xu Youyou: “…”

‘I was just speaking casually! Why are you taking it so seriously?!’

At this time, a cold and deep voice rang in the air.

“Do you really want the Mo Corporation’s legal team to look for you in the police station?”

The pair of brother and sister turned to look in the direction of the voice immediately and saw Mo Shenbai walking over.
