Chapter 126 - 126:126, Xiaobai pampers the princess, feed me.
She used to think that, regardless of whether Xiao Yebai liked her or not, as long as he stayed by her side, he was her man. Even if he was cold as ice every day, she was still happy, cheerful, and satisfied.
But today, she got hurt, and he wouldn’t even be bothered to go buy crab dumplings for her himself.
Thinking of his impatient attitude just now, it was as if she was a domineering and unreasonable woman.
He had always been so frosty and silent. Was it because he was annoyed with her princess-like tantrums?
Fine, she would just continue then. After all, in his eyes, her image was just like that, otherwise he wouldn’t have lied about losing his phone previously.
New grudges and old grievances combined made Mo Weiyi cry miserably. Eventually, she fell asleep with her tears still flowing.
She didn’t know how much time had passed.
Through her daze, her cheek was bumped by something suddenly.
Warm, soft, and carrying a rich fragrance.
Mo Weiyi suddenly opened her eyes.
In front of her was the cold indifference and handsome features of Xiao Yebai.
He sat at the edge of her bed, his slender white fingers holding two chopsticks. A dumpling was pinched between them, and he was staring at her with an expressionless face.
Although he was still his calm and cool self, Mo Weiyi felt as if her heart was blown by the spring breeze of March. All grievances and annoyances disappeared in an instant, and her heart felt warm, sweet, and bubbled with little pink bubbles.
She couldn’t help but curl up the corners of her mouth, her tone carrying a slight shyness and naivety of a young girl, “Did you go to buy dumplings for me just now?”
Xiao Yebai responded with a nod.
That simple sentence was enough for Mo Weiyi to feel completely healed.
She sat up, coquettishly said in a soft voice, “Then you feed me.”
Xiao Yebai, with chopsticks in hand, brought the dumpling to her mouth.
Watching her open her small mouth and carefully bite into the thin wrap, followed by sucking the soup inside, his heart softened.
Her cheeks were flushed, there was slight redness around her eyes, and there were clear traces of wetness on her lashes. It was clear she had been crying.
Xiao Yebai lowered his lashes, hiding the flicker of emotions that passed through his eyes.
“Delicious.” Mo Weiyi squinted her eyes in satisfaction after the meal.
Her favorite was the freshly made crab dumplings from Shaoheji, an old brand in Shanghai. They were particularly authentic, rich in crab roe, and the texture was fresh and delicious. Especially the soup inside, just one sip gave the feeling of being on cloud nine.
After eating two in a row, Mo Weiyi suddenly asked, “Xiaobai, aren’t you eating?”
Xiao Yebai responded lightly, “You eat first.”
Mo Weiyi noticed that there were still two boxes in the take-out bag beside her, presumably for him to eat later.
Xiaobai was so considerate and fed her first to keep her from starving.
But right when she finished her third dumpling, Auntie Jiang walked in. Xiao Yebai instructed, “Auntie Jiang, please bring the porridge to room 2101.”
“Alright, Mr. Xiao.”
Auntie Jiang hurriedly left with the bag, but Mo Weiyi was completely stunned.
Room 2101.
The room Xiao Zhiwei was staying in.
The porridge wasn’t for him, it was for Xiao Zhiwei.
So when he held another dumpling with the chopsticks, she shoved it away, “I don’t want to eat anymore!”
“What’s wrong?” Xiao Yebai frowned slightly.
Mo Weiyi took a deep breath and asked, “You went to buy lunch for your sister, so you just bought the dumplings for me along the way, right?”
Xiao Yebai looked at her, slowly put down the chopsticks.
Seeing his silence as affirmation, Mo Weiyi immediately shouted angrily, “Then go and coax your sister, why are you still coaxing me? Go away, I don’t want to see you! Leave!”
Having said that, she turned around, her back towards him.
“Mo Weiyi.” Xiao Yebai called her name in a low voice, “I have a meeting at two o’clock.”
Mo Weiyi faced away from him, remaining silent.
The room was filled with a tense atmosphere.
“Knock-knock.” The door was suddenly knocked.
Su Wanwan stood at the door holding a large bouquet of lilies, her big eyes rolling around trying to peek inside.
The man stood up. Without uttering a word, he left the room with his phone.
Uh….
Su Wanwan was completely puzzled as she walked in, noticing the half-eaten dumplings on the bedside table.
“Weiyi.”
Hearing this voice, Mo Weiyi finally turned around, her small face filled with grievance, “Wanwan, you’re here.”
“What’s wrong? Did you fight with your Xiaobai?”
Su Wanwan found this truly strange.
Even though Xiao Yebai was always cold and uncommunicative, indeed possessing the ability to leave people freezing or infuriated, she didn’t expect that Mo Weiyi, with her adoring nature, would end up quarreling with him.
With a pout, Mo Weiyi nodded, “Wanwan, I’m about to be infuriated to death by him!”
“What happened?”
Mo Weiyi recounted the whole story. In the end, she picked up her chopsticks, bit into a juicy dumpling, and asked while chewing, “Don’t you think he’s way out of line?”
Su Wanwan nodded, firmly siding with her friend, “He indeed crossed the line!”
“He must be downstairs having dinner with his sister now!”
Uh, Su Wanwan frowned, “That shouldn’t be the case, right?”
After all, one is his wife, and the other only his cousin…
The next second.
Mo Weiyi dropped her chopsticks, “Wanwan, help me. I’m going downstairs to find him.”
“Uh? Didn’t you hurt your leg? Wait for him to come back and then…”
“No, I want to go now!”
Su Wanwan:
Just then, Aunt Jiang came back to the room.
“Aunt Jiang, bring the wheelchair over!” Mo Weiyi ordered.
The Little Princess was really unstoppable when she threw a tantrum.
When she sat in the wheelchair, Su Wanwan could only follow her downstairs.
Upon arriving at the door of room 2101, Mo Weiyi didn’t knock and just pushed the door open.
Inside the sickroom, Xiao Zhiwei was sitting on the bed eating porridge.
The entire room was empty. Only she was there, no sign of Xiao Yebai.
Mo Weiyi instinctively looked towards the small kitchen.
“What’s the matter?” Xiao Zhiwei put down her bowl, her words dripping with sarcasm, “Did the two guards bring the princess to inspect the room?”
Su Wanwan’s eyelid twitched.
This Xiao Yebai’s cousin wasn’t someone easy either.
Indeed, birds of a feather flock together, even their icy tone was very similar.
“Where’s Xiaobai?” Mo Weiyi asked.
Xiao Zhiwei smiled, “Did the princess make my brother run away?”
Seeing Mo Weiyi’s face instantly clouding over, she laughed even more delightedly, “I told you, my brother never liked you. You thought marrying him made him yours? A spoiled and willful woman like you, who only cares about her feelings and never consider others’, the longer my brother stays with you, the more he’ll dislike you. You can keep him by your side, but you’ll never win his heart, how ludicrously foolish!”
Not to mention Mo Weiyi, even Su Wanwan felt a surge of anger upon hearing these words.
She advised, “Weiyi, Xiaobai should have gone back to the company. Why don’t you call him and ask?”
“Aunt Jiang, push me in.”
Su Wanwan:
Aunt Jiang had already pushed the wheelchair into the room.
Su Wanwan could only follow in, glancing around at the stark contrast between this room and Mo Weiyi’s. There weren’t any flowers or gifts, everything was stark and cold. Even the curtains were drawn. Add in Xiao Zhiwei’s gloomy face…
All in all, it felt chilling.
The ring of a cell phone cut through the silence. Su Wanwan checked the caller ID to find that it was a call from Elder Mrs. Huo.
She hurriedly walked towards the door, “Weiyi, I need to take this call.”
Mo Weiyi didn’t respond.
She glanced at the bowl of porridge on the table and the takeout box next to it, with the words “Shaoheji” written on it.
She felt as if a hole had been hollowed out in her heart, and an icy wind blew through it, leaving her sour and astringent.
She looked at Xiao Zhiwei and gave a faint smile, “Xiao Zhiwei.”
Xiao Zhiwei was watching her as well.
Sigh, truly a spoiled little princess. Even in the hospital, she was flawlessly perfect from head to toe.
Even now, with her injuries, even in the same blue and white hospital gown as her, she managed to give off a combined sense of helpless beauty and haughty aloofness.
A surge of envy was rushing rapidly in her heart.
Every time she saw Mo Weiyi, she couldn’t resist this feeling.
“Does the princess want to hit me again?” she provoked.
Mo Weiyi lifted her chin, her red lips curling into a proud smile, “Xiao Zhiwei, when will you finally end your pathetic incestuous obsession with your brother? You were like this four years ago, went abroad for four years, and you’re still the same! What, weren’t those foreign men enough to satisfy your desires? You’ve ruined your body and you’re still making a scene?”
With a loud crash, Xiao Zhiwei overturned the bowl and the takeout box on the table..
