Chapter 647 - 657: Romantic Journey (3)
"I don’t know what’s going on. Lately, I’ve been getting sleepier and more eager to eat and sleep. It’s really disheartening," Qiao Mo sighed, for she used to be someone who couldn’t sleep at all.He ruffled her hair, "Sit a while longer. I’ll take you out for a meal."
A gleam of excitement flashed in Qiao Mo’s eyes, "Are we dining out?"
He tapped her nose, "What do you want to eat?"
Qiao Mo thought seriously for a moment and suddenly craved something spicy—like really spicy...
"How about Sichuan hotpot?"
Fu Nancheng’s brows furrowed slightly, not because he didn’t want her to eat it, but out of concern that it might upset her stomach.
"Is it okay..." Qiao Mo clung to his arm and gently swayed, whining playfully.
He cast her a light glance without speaking, and Qiao Mo slightly pouted, "Then what do you want to eat?"
"I want to eat... you."
With that, he fiercely captured her lips and kissed her deeply.
In the end, Fu Nancheng couldn’t refuse her and took her to a famous Sichuan hotpot restaurant.
They booked a private room, and Qiao Mo planned to have a satisfying and delightful meal.
But who would have thought that after only a short while, her stomach felt like it was on fire?
In the end, with no choice, she resigned herself to Fu Nancheng calling someone to switch her to a clear soup pot, leaving her sighing deeply with frustration.
That night, upon returning home.
Qiao Mo first took a shower and then came back to turn on the TV to watch some brainless soap operas and pass the time.
Fu Nancheng sliced some fruit for her and placed it on the coffee table before heading to the bathroom for a shower.
Qiao Mo watched TV intently, but after ten minutes or so, his phone suddenly rang.
Qiao Mo picked up the phone, intending to take it to the bathroom, but as soon as she picked it up, she froze at the two characters noted on the screen.
’Qiao Yun.’
For a moment, her heart was filled with mixed emotions.
Even though she knew he had always been supporting her surgery and medical expenses and even knew he occasionally visited her in the hospital.
However, seeing this name appear on his phone still made her feel painful.
Qiao Mo couldn’t help but mock herself a little, realizing it was just a number, yet she had become so petty and sensitive.
Even for ordinary friends, it’s quite normal to save a number.
Qiao Mo tried hard to persuade herself, making herself seem less pretentious.
But still, another voice inside kept telling her that he wasn’t the type to randomly save women’s numbers, especially since this person was no other than Qiao Yun.
Qiao Mo hesitated as she stared at the number and eventually lowered her gaze and headed towards the bathroom.
Yet before she could pass the phone to Fu Nancheng, the call had already ended.
After hesitating for a moment, she placed the phone back on the coffee table, seemingly untouched.
Returning to the sofa to watch TV, she began to feel a bit distracted.
She truly understood herself, knowing deep down, it’s because she’s uneasy that she might just be the wrong person for him.
Sometimes she wondered if this happiness wasn’t meant to be hers.
She even considered whether perhaps she should return all this to Qiao Yun.
But ultimately, she believed love isn’t something that can be conceded, and if she really did that, Fu Nancheng would surely be very disappointed in her.
Besides, if a person doesn’t dare to defend their own happiness, then what right do they have to obtain happiness?
