Stubborn Love of a Roguish Scion

“Since it has already been bought, let’s just bring it home.”

“No.”

“Mo Jiangye.”

“I am here, Baby Ruo. I will buy you new clothes later.”

He tossed the dress to Xu Xu. “Put this on in the dressing room and let me see how pretty it looks.”

Xu Xu’s eyebrows formed a tight line. What had he done wrong? How had he provoked their boss again?

“Boss… Are you serious?”

His voice turned icy. “Do you think I am messing around with you?”

Xu Xu wanted to cry but could not form tears. “I can’t do it, Boss. What did I do wrong for you to punish me like that?”

“Change.”

“My body cannot afford to wear a dress that is worth millions.”

All of a sudden, he had a brilliant idea. “I’ll just let sister-in-law wear this dress. The money… Boss, you have to reimburse me for it! I bought it on your behalf. You can’t let someone as poor as me pay for it. When you get home, have sister-in-law wear it for you. The dress is one size. It will be a waste if I damage it with my rough, well-built body. Isn’t that right, sister-in-law?”

He looked at Ye Erruo pleadingly. His understanding of Mo Jiangye’s possessiveness had been renewed.

Their boss never used to be like that! He had changed!

“I am giving it to sister-in-law. I still have something to do. I wasn’t done questioning those people earlier. Didn’t you want to know who Lin is? I will help you find out right now. Don’t forget to return the money to me.”

Ye Erruo looked at the dress in her arms. “Remember to return the money to him later.”

Mo Jiangye was unhappy as he tossed the dress aside. “You are not allowed to wear it.”

“Alright, alright. I will not wear it.”

Suddenly, he changed his mind. “Wear it for me when we are home.”

When she was done wearing this dress… she would wear some new clothes for him to see. Wouldn’t that be pleasing?

Ye Erruo raised her brows and gave him a smile that was not quite a smile. “Sure, but don’t you do anything funny.”

“I wouldn’t,” he said solemnly.

“Why do I not believe you?”

He narrowed his eyes dangerously. “You do not believe me?”

“Sir and miss, our jeweler would like to invite you two over to have a look and confirm your ideal ring designs.”

The employee walked over with a smile, enviously staring at Mo Jiangye. Where had she found such a charming rich man?

Ye Erruo released her grip on Mo Jiangye’s collar as they held hands and walked to the back of the shop.

“Can it be done in two hours?”

“Yes, miss.”

“Are you hungry?” he asked gently.

Before he had asked, she had still been fine. Now that he had, Ye Erruo did indeed begin to feel a little hungry.

“What time is it?”

“9 pm.” Mo Jiangye glanced at the watch on his wrist.

“What would you like to have for dinner?”

Ye Erruo held his arm and leaned her head on his shoulder as they walked. “I am not sure. Anything would be good. Let’s just eat whatever there is.”

With an arm around her waist, he protected her carefully while placing a call with his free hand.

Their intimate actions were a cause of envy for the employee beside them.

“We are here, sir. This way, please…” The employee opened the door for them.

The light in the room was dim. Mo Jiangye unconsciously hugged her closer to him, afraid that he would lose her.

Suddenly, a bark was heard and a soft red furball came scuttling out.

Mo Jiangye instinctively hid Ye Erruo behind him. By reacting extremely fast, he kicked the red furry creature away.

Oh, oh, oh…

“Red Bean?” Ye Erruo was flabbergasted. What was it doing here?
