Chapter 1390: Professor Jiang Is Really Handsome and Elegant… Ouch…
Mo Liuxi furrowed his brows and said snippily, “Your conversation is sooo boring. Can’t you girls talk about something more interesting?”
Luosang shot him a dirty look. “How is our conversation boring? Feel free to say something interesting if you can.”
On hearing that, Mo Liuxi fixed his eyes on Yan Su. Under his gaze, she felt uneasy and worried he might say something inappropriate to embarrass her. Much to her relief, he moved his thin lips slightly and said, “The red scarf doesn’t suit you. It doesn’t look good on you.”
She decided to play it cool by ignoring his remark.
Pulling a face, Luosang swung her bag of sugar-coated hawthorn berries at his head. Aargh! He was incorrigible!
…But Mo Liuxi ducked his head just in time.
Observing this little spat, Mo Jin felt a sharp pang of worry in her heart. Will I ever become mother-in-law? Sigh. My son seems incapable of holding a normal conversation with the girl. After a momentary pause, she walked up to Yan Su with a warm smile and said, “Su, we haven’t seen each other for a while. You don’t have a boyfriend yet, do you? Is there someone in your life?”
“No…” Yan Su felt a bit awkward and wondered why Mo Jin was being extra friendly to her. “Aunty Mo, you guys, please come in. It’s so cold outside.”
“What a nice girl,” Mo Jin nodded. She couldn’t stop showering her with praise.
The group walked into the private room. Yan Su picked up the menu and said, “Everyone, please order whatever you’d like to try. Dinner is on me.”
“No. It’s on me,” Nian Junting said blandly. “These are all my family members. There’s no reason for you to pay.”
“I agree,” Mo Jin hurriedly nodded. “You worked hard for your money. Let them pick up the tab. They can all afford it.”
“I’d like to pay,” Mo Liuxi said.
Everyone looked at him with a shocked expression. Luosang didn’t know how stingy he had typically been to other people, but she was still surprised. “Why, how nice of you. May I ask why you suddenly want to treat us to dinner tonight?”
“This is our first family vacation,” Mo Liuxi said. “I think it’s imperative. I made some extra money earlier this year, so, well, why not?”
His generosity deeply touched Luosang. Xu Zhengxuan almost cried. It was the first time he heard such warm words flow from his son’s cold mouth. “Jin, our son, has grown up,” he said to Mo Jin.
Mo Jin gave a cold smile after sizing up the situation… My son is lying…He’s only doing this because of the girl.
“All right. As your mother, I’m happy to hear that. People, please order whatever you want. Don’t worry about saving pennies. Just order the most expensive things on the menu. cordyceps flower meatball, ginseng soup, Haliotis, and beef stew…”
Mo Liuxi twitched his mouth corners. Hmph. She was not thinking about saving me money at all.
When the delicious dishes were served, Nian Xi introduced Jiang Yuning to Yan Su, “This is my boyfriend, Jiang Yuning.”
Yan Su smiled at Jiang Yuning and said, “Professor Jiang is handsome and elegant… Ouch…”
Someone stomped on her foot hard before she had a chance to finish her sentence.
She turned her head to look at Mo Liuxi. It was him. He did it.
“Why are you looking at me that way? What’s wrong?” Mo Liuxi put on an innocent face.
Yan Su didn’t have the heart to ask him why he did that in front of so many people, so she pulled her foot out from under his and stomped him back twice as hard. She regretted not wearing heels today.
Mo Liuxi stayed expressionless, focused on eating.
Tilting her head to the side, Yan Su said, “Nian Xi, Professor Jiang, have you two set a date yet for your wedding?”
Jiang Yuning dropped his chopsticks and gave Nian Xi a shy glance. “Anytime,” he said.
Nian Xi coughed slightly. How was she supposed to respond to that?
“I think you might get married before I do. You see, you caught the bridal bouquet at Sangsang’s wedding.”
“You can’t believe in something like that,” said Yan Su blandly.
“Maybe you can,” Nian Xi raised her eyebrows. “I almost got it that day, but in the end, it just fell into your arms. I think God arranged that.”
