Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 720 - 637 I Can Understand

Leng Mochen stood up and casually took the few items from Li Si’s hand, directly choosing a light aquamarine dress, "This one!"

Li Si hesitantly took it and held it against herself, a bit worried that she couldn’t pull off such an elegant color.

"Does it really look good?"

"Mm! This one!"

"Alright then!" Li Si glanced at the time, realizing they couldn’t delay any longer.

Today was Mr. Xu’s birthday, and it wouldn’t be good if they were late.

Just as she was about to enter the fitting room to change, he pulled her hand, "Change here, I’ll help you with the zipper!"

Li Si couldn’t help but tease him, "You sound so serious, but I don’t believe you!"

She was afraid it would end up in a passionate and unmentionable drama once again.

Leng Mochen watched her graceful figure disappear behind the fitting room door, touching his nose.

Alright, though he did have a tiny bit of thought.

When Li Si came out after changing, he felt a sense of amazement. Her originally fair skin looked even more radiant and glowing against the aquamarine dress.

He snapped his fingers, "Perfect!"

Li Si raised an eyebrow and teased him, "Stop staring! You’ll get stuck staring too long!"

Leng Mochen mischievously leaned closer, "Is that your dream?"

At first, Li Si was puzzled, what dream?

Then she quickly realized the implied meaning in his words and, feeling ashamed and outraged, she hit him hard.

"You big rascal! Your mind is full of such thoughts!"

He grunted, eyes dark and deep, "If you keep hitting, I can’t guarantee what will happen!"

Li Si quickly stopped, lifting her head and coquettishly coaxed him, "Alright! Darling! Let’s hurry and leave! We don’t want to keep everyone waiting, do we?"

Leng Mochen pulled her into his arms, leaning close to her ear with a wicked smile, "We can leave, but you have to answer one question first!"

"Ah? What question?" She had a feeling it wouldn’t be anything good.

"Did I make you beautiful last night?"

Li Si felt a ’boom’ in her head, her cheeks burning. Why was this person like this now?

To say such things, such questions, so casually, it was truly embarrassing for her.

"What does not answering mean? Hmm? Didn’t feel anything? Didn’t reach it? Should I keep trying next time?" He leaned closer, mischievously blowing warm air onto her pink earlobe.

Li Si instinctively dodged, the warm breath tickling and numbing her ear.

"Mm!" She lowered her head, revealing her fair, straight neck, like a shy white swan.

Leng Mochen knew well that she was shy, and this was the limit.

Satisfied, he stopped teasing and hugged her, "I’m quite satisfied! Let’s go!"

Li Si gently patted her flushed cheeks with her palm, staring at Leng Mochen with a trace of resentment.

He was unusually different today, probably because he was going abroad tomorrow.

Thinking that he was about to go abroad to sign a contract, she felt a pang of sourness in her heart, she really didn’t want him to go.

However, this thought could only be kept inside; she knew that Mo Si hadn’t gone public to avoid the financial crisis.

And Leng Family, as a listed company, was highly sensitive, and he, as the leader, had to think and do more.

Seeing her expression suddenly change, he couldn’t guess what was in her little head, lovingly kissing her forehead, "I really don’t want to go!"

If today’s birthday party wasn’t for Mr. Xu, he wouldn’t have gone.

Given the time, it would be better spent with her and the child, mainly with her, of course.

"Let’s set off! Otherwise, we’ll really be late!" Li Si said while tidying her hair, suppressing her emotions, and urging gently.

Leng Mochen suddenly said in a deep voice, "If possible, I’d really like to take you and Buding abroad with me!"

If it weren’t a special period now, he would have wanted to take Li Si and Buding with him even if he went abroad.

But with the situation abroad being critical, he couldn’t take that risk at the moment.

Li Si glanced at his expression, her eyes narrowing tenderly as she smiled, "Hey! What are you talking about! You’re doing it for work! I understand!"

He stretched out his clear-jointed hand to stroke her cheek, feeling that smooth skin, "I know you understand, but I’m still worried about you both! That incident last time with the post, not being by your side is always a regret in my heart!" 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

To love someone is to want to protect her, care for her, make her happy and content.

But ever since Li Si has been with him, it seems like there’s always one crisis or another.

Admittedly, some things resulted from Leng Mochen’s own provocations.

But undeniably, he didn’t make her worry less.

For example, the Qin Xin incident.

So at this moment, his heart was soft, always wanting to say or do something to fully express his feelings.

Li Si placed her hand over his large one, smiling delicately, "Why are you doing this! I don’t care about past things, why do you remember them so clearly? And being so sentimental! It feels odd!" She couldn’t say the phrase about life and death separation, afraid of jinxing it, as it implied something bad.

So she paused there, looking directly into his eyes and continued, "Don’t worry about Buding and me; I’ll take good care of us.

But, try to finish your work quickly and come back to us! We’re worried about you!"

"Absolutely!" he promised solemnly. "I’ll be back in at most a week! We’ll celebrate your birthday as a family of three this year!"

Li Si felt a current called warm fluid flowing through her heart at that moment. Yes, a family of three, how wonderful!

Last year at this time, the little one was still in her belly.

The two of them touched foreheads, snuggling a while before leaving home.

Mr. Xu’s birthday party was being held on the top floor of his hotel, and when Li Si and Leng Mochen arrived, Long Wu and the others were already there.

The hall was bustling with people, filled with cheerful chatter and elegant attendees.

Li Si and Leng Mochen presented Mr. Xu with a carefully prepared gift, a calligraphy by Wang Xizhi.

Mr. Xu was very pleased, and after chatting warmly for a while, they went to look for Xu Er and the others.

Xu Er had already seen Leng Mochen but was busy greeting guests.

Seeing the two of them approaching, Xu Er couldn’t help but tease, "What’s up with you two, arriving so late! Even Long Wu got here before you!" He pointed to the round table where Long Wu and Su Meng were seated.

Leng Mochen glanced at him indifferently, "Got a problem?"

His presence was already a courtesy, why so much fuss?

Xu Er laughed awkwardly, "Just joking! Don’t take it seriously!"

Li Si instinctively looked over at Long Wu and Su Meng, finding them a bit off, with a significant gap between them, and neither looked too pleased.

Su Meng looked at Li Si from afar, forcing a smile and greeting.

Li Si nodded back, thinking to herself they must be having another spat. How would they get through it every day?
