Chapter 14 Beautiful Boss

‘Why did she mention Wang Fei all of sudden?’ The topic jumped so quickly that I was a little confused, but I answered, “Hmm… I don’t really like listening to music; I just think that her singing voice sounds like my little sister’s.”

Mo Fei was slightly interested. “You have a little sister?”

I nodded. “Sixteen, still studying in high school.”

Mo Fei covered her mouth in surprise. “Sixteen! So little?”

I shook my head with a bitter smile. “I said she was little, yesterday. She almost ate me.”

“Really? Haha. That’s really cute. Haha…” Mo Fei let out a series of charming giggles. It was very natural, and not pretentious. It was so sweet to the ear that if my ears could drool, they would drool all over the place.

“She must be very beautiful.”

“How do you know?” Although I didn’t like Chu Yuan’s character, I had always been proud of having such a beautiful little sister.

Mo Fei stared at my face for a moment. “You are also quite good-looking…” As soon as she said it, she realized that she was praising the look of the opposite sex; it instantly made her blush.

Physical appearance was an important part of a good impression. Mo Fei’s inadvertent compliment made my heart beat rapidly. it was like violent waves surging one after another. But fearing that this kind of reaction would make her feel embarrassed, my face was very natural. “I am good-looking? Haha. Ms. Mo. You are the first one who said so to me.”

“Ah… How come?” Mo Fei covered her mouth with both hands and blushed even more. With this kind of reaction, it was undoubtedly that she really thought that my appearance was not bad.

However, looking at her embarrassed reaction and slightly angry look, she probably thought that I was teasing her.

Even if I was a thick-skinned person, I also felt embarrassed. After all, I was still self-aware enough to tell that although my look was just slightly above average men, it was still the type that would be easily forgotten by other people after they stopped interacting with me.

So I did not know if Mo Fei was just being nice, or her aesthetic standards were relatively low…

I pretended that I did not notice her shy look, and said in a deep, and painful voice, “Well, if you saw my little sister, you’ll know how ugly I look. It is like the difference between a swan and a toad. Sigh…”

“Are you not exaggerating?” Noticing that it did not look like I was teasing her, the little anger in both eyes of Mo Fei slowly faded.

She then said, “It looks like you really like your little sister.”

I almost switched to the wrong gear after I heard it. “What makes you think that way?”

“Your eyes,” Mo Fei said with confidence. “When you talked about your little sister, your eyes would light up; and there was something in your eyes; I think that’s probably the love within a family, right?…”

I didn’t sleep much last night, so when she mentioned that my eyes would light up; and there was something in my eyes, I naturally thought that it might be eye boogers.

I could not help but shiver a little. But what I did not notice was that there was a faint trace of sadness and loneliness slowly fading away in Mo Fei’s eyes.

……

We arrived at a small restaurant called Zhuoya Dumpling Restaurant. It was not big; and the decoration was average, but it was clean and tidy. It was almost full of customers inside the restaurant; it was enough to prove that this shop was very popular.

Regardless of body shape, appearance, and temperament, Mo Fei was destined to become the most dazzling star in any venue; therefore, I could only be innocently submerged in all kinds of cursing glares when standing next to her.

‘Screw you all. You guys are just envious.’

Mo Fei perhaps was also aware of her own charm; so she chose a corner seat near the window. Finally, it was not that eye-catching anymore.

After pushing the menu back and forth several times, she told the waitress, who was eyeing us up and down ambiguously, to serve some of the dishes that she usually ate and some dumplings.

“I’m sorry, Chu Nan. I shouldn’t have slapped you yesterday.” As soon as the dishes were served, Mo Fei said while raising her glass, and added, “I will drink this glass of beer as an apology. I hope you can forgive me.”

‘Hmm… Drinking before eating anything?’ I quickly raised my glass in a hurry. “Ms. Mo, It was actually my fault. I shouldn’t have hit your mom… I mean auntie… I should apologize to you and auntie.”

“You did not do anything wrong. It was her fault,” Mo Fei said, shaking her head in a bitter smile. “I knew you were trying to protect me… ”

‘Then why did you slap me? I have been feeling guilty all day and all night because I thought that you didn’t know what I was doing.’ Hearing what Mo Fei said, I was speechless.

“Chu Nan. If you are willing to forgive me, then please drink the beer with me; but if you are still feeling aggrieved, then…” Mo Fei closed her eyes, and turned her face slightly sideways and said, “you can slap me back.”
