Extreme Pampering After Marriage-Chapter 28

Xu Youyou’s expression stiffened for a moment. She lowered her head and pursed her lips before she said in an uncertain tone, “I think I must’ve blamed them before…”

Mo Shenbai raised an eyebrow at the strange way she phrased her words.

When Xu Youyou saw the puzzled expression on her face, she pursed her cherry lips for a moment before she explained, “There are things I’ve forgotten. I don’t remember if I’ve ever blamed or resented them. However, I don’t blame them now. They must have had their difficulties and reasons. After all, I don’t think there’s anyone who doesn’t want their own child, right?”

Then, a bright smile bloomed on her childish face as she said, “In any case, I’m living very well now, and I’m happy every day.”

Mo Shenbai looked at her smiling face and felt as though his heart had been hit with a blunt object.

‘There’s no one who doesn’t want their own child? There are many who don’t want their child. There are those who abandon their child like worn out shoes and hate them to the bones.’

…

When the car pulled up to Moon Pavilion, Mo Shenbai did not get out of the car. He watched the butler bring Xu Youyou into the house, and when he looked away, his eyes glinted coldly. “How’s the investigation going?”

Pei Chuan turned around and said respectfully, “The background of the truck driver is very clean. There are no abnormalities with his bank accounts. It looks like an accident.”

Mo Shenbai’s lips curled up into a sneer as his eyes flashed with mockery. ‘How many ‘accidents’ have there been in recent years?’

Pei Chuan seemed to know what Mo Shenbai was thinking. He hesitated before he said, “It might not be those people. Perhaps, it’s someone else…”

Mo Shenbai interjected, “Let Cang Ming protect Xu Youyou.”

Cang Ming was the driver. He was a veteran. Not only was he skilled in driving, but he had other skills as well.

......

Pei Chuan’s eyes flashed with surprise before he protested, “Chairman Mo, Cang Ming has been by your side for so many years! If you’re afraid of implicating Miss Xu, why don’t you send her back to the Xu family? She…”

Pei Chuan stopped talking immediately when he saw Mo Shenbai looking at him icily. After a moment of silence, he could not help but ask curiously, “Chairman Mo, have you recovered from your illness? Have you…”

“Do you see a word on my forehead?”

“Huh? Word? What word?” Pei Chuan was confused.

Mo Shenbai said coldly, “Pervert.”

Unless he was a pervert, would he have feelings for someone nine years younger than him?

“...”

…

After Mo Shenbai took care of the affairs at the office and returned to the Moon Pavilion, the moon and stars had already hung high in the sky.

When he strode into the house, everything was normal. It was quiet. f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

The butler stepped forward to help when a crisp voice rang in the air.

“Mr. Mo, you’re back!”

When Mo Shenbai saw Xu Youyu walking out of the kitchen, his eyes flashed with surprise. “You haven’t slept yet?”

“I was waiting for you to come back for dinner,” Xu Youyou said as she shook her head.

“Waiting for me?”

“Didn’t I promise to cook dinner as a token of apology? Did you forget?” Xu Youyou asked. After a moment, she said, “Have you eaten? If that’s the case, I’ll put the food away.”

Before Xu Youyou could return to the kitchen, Mo Shenbai stopped her. “I haven’t eaten yet.” 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

Xu Youyou’s eyes lit up immediately. “Great! Then, the dishes I made won’t go to waste!”

She knew Mo Shenbai did not like sweet things and that he paid attention to his body, she had deliberately cooked food she thought would suit his taste. There was no oily or spicy food. There were meat and vegetable dishes, and they looked delicious.

When Mo Shenbai saw she only brought out a set of cutleries, he raised an eyebrow and asked, “You’re not eating?”
