Chapter 854 - 858 The Man Who Is Jealous of Himself
Watching her busy figure, Leng Zimo felt a fleeting illusion.
It was a strange feeling, as if he had seen her like this countless times before. He could even predict her next move from her small gestures.
Seeing her lift her wet hands and look around, he casually pulled a kitchen towel from the nearby counter and handed it to her.
"Zimo, when did you get here?"
Luo Xiaoqian took the towel, surprised to see it was him.
"A while ago, Mo Mo and the others were leaving just as I arrived and didn’t close the door." Leng Zimo nodded towards the knife in her hand.
Luo Xiaoqian wiped the water off the knife and placed it back in the rack. She picked up the sushi platter from the table and handed it to him. "Wait for me at the dining table, I’ll be right there."
Leng Zimo brought the sushi to the table. Moments later, she came out with a tray with two glasses of juice and some sushi dipping sauce placed in small dishes.
She placed one of the dishes in front of him, untied her apron, and casually laid it on a chair, then sat down opposite him.
Knowing he liked light flavors, she had specially made vegetable and fruit sushi for him.
Leng Zimo picked up a piece of sushi, "Did Mo Mo’s father pass away?"
Unexpectedly, he suddenly asked about Luo Jun’s father, causing Luo Xiaoqian to almost choke on her juice. "No... no, he didn’t!"
Such a wonderful woman, such a cute child, what kind of man would be willing to let them go? Leng Zimo naturally assumed that something must have happened to Luo Jun’s father, leaving them as orphans.
Hearing that the man was still alive, his anger naturally rose.
"So he’s a jerk!"
"He..." Luo Xiaoqian took a small bite of sushi. "It wasn’t his fault, I left him. He... he doesn’t know about Mo Mo’s existence... We... can’t be together due to some special reasons."
Even though Leng Zimo was cursing himself, Luo Xiaoqian instinctively protected him.
Listening to her voice, sensing the obvious protection and affection she had for that man, Leng Zimo felt a surge of irritation in his heart. "No matter what, he’s a jerk!"
Such a good woman, how could she have met such a jerk first?
Eating the delicious sushi, Leng Zimo couldn’t help but feel a twinge of sourness in his heart.
This guy, the way he acted, it was clear he was jealous. He was probably the only man in the world who would be jealous of himself.
Luo Xiaoqian glanced at him across the table, holding back her laughter.
"Let’s not talk about him anymore, the past is in the past, let’s eat!"
After eating, the two walked out of the villa together, Leng Zimo drove her to the company building first.
Luo Xiaoqian unbuckled her seatbelt. "We agreed to go to the hospital yesterday. Can you take some time this weekend? I might have to go on a business trip next week and won’t have time then."
"It’s really nothing, maybe I’m just too tired. I slept well last night, I think I just need a little rest." Leng Zimo didn’t want to go, he hated hospitals, as usual.
"You promised me." Luo Xiaoqian opened the car door and turned to look at him. "If you back out, then I’ll back out too."
Leng Zimo shrugged, compromising, "Sunday afternoon."
Luo Xiaoqian smiled in satisfaction. "I’ll find the hospital, Sunday afternoon, see you there."
Waving at him, she hugged her bag and computer, quickly walking up the steps.
Watching her bright jacket, the one he had given her, disappear at the entrance, he finally turned and left.
