When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase-Chapter 712: Is This What Love Feels Like? (2)

To be exact, Mu Ke’s gaze fell on her fingers, which still had a band-aid on them.

Last night, after the two of them established their relationship, Mu Ke noticed something unusual about her hand. Upon asking, he found out that she had cut herself while washing a knife, and his face immediately darkened.

Now, being stared at like this by him, Sheng Jiayu felt a bit awkward. Although she didn’t think women must know how to do housework, honestly, it’s pretty rare for someone to cut themselves just washing a knife.

Compared to Mu Ke, she was not womanly at all.

Knowing herself well, Sheng Jiayu spoke up, "Forget it, I’ll just wait outside."

The expression on Mu Ke’s face softened, revealing a slight smile, "Mm, you’re in charge of eating."

Sheng Jiayu: "..."

Why does that sound a bit... weird!

Mu Ke was very quick at wrapping dumplings. In no time, he had wrapped two large plates; their breakfast only used up two-thirds of a plate, garnished with a bit of green onions and seaweed, fragrant and appetizing.

Sitting across from each other having breakfast, Sheng Jiayu spoke, "Aren’t you going to the hospital today?"

"Mm, I’m on vacation."

"Oh, I still need to go to the bookstore, it just opened yesterday. It’s not right to skip work today."

"Okay, I’ll go with you."

Sheng Jiayu instinctively wanted to say "no need," but swallowed her words. Mu Ke’s role was different now, and he had no work to do, so there was no harm in him going with her to the bookstore.

After finishing breakfast, Mu Ke cleaned up the kitchen while Sheng Jiayu changed clothes, and only then did they leisurely head out. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

The snow on the road outside was shoveled to the sides, but the snow on the trees and roofs was still clearly visible, a blanket of white. Sheng Jiayu didn’t drive; she sat in the passenger seat of Mu Ke’s car.

This feeling was actually a bit subtle.

No one might believe it if she said it, but during her many years of marriage to Xin Ke, they had never gone to work together. They always drove separately, and even during what Sheng Jiayu felt was the most harmonious times in her relationship with Xin Ke, this had never happened.

Let alone Xin Ke specifically driving her to work.

Now that she was divorced, there was someone willing to be her driver.

This feeling was completely different from hiring a driver.

Mu Ke drove a bit fast, but steadily, stopping the car in front of the bookstore and letting Sheng Jiayu get out first, while he drove to park in the lot behind.

The street here could only accommodate temporary parking, not for long periods.

Sheng Jiayu entered the bookstore, and everyone who was supposed to be there was there, even some customers. She greeted them and went straight up to the office on the second floor.

Everything in the bookstore was still quite new, with no accounts or partnerships to discuss. Sheng Jiayu was only there to look around, with nothing important to do.

After staying in the office for a while, she decided to go downstairs to check and observe the morning and afternoon customer flow.

Just as she stepped out of the office, she saw two waitresses cleaning several bookshelves on the second floor.

"Sister Yu, morning."

"Morning."

Sheng Jiayu greeted them. They were honest young girls whom she personally hired.

"Sister Yu, there’s a handsome guy downstairs, super handsome."

Young girls always loved gossiping. Sheng Jiayu smiled and patted the one who spoke, "Got a crush?"

"Hehe."

Sheng Jiayu didn’t take it seriously and stepped downstairs. When she saw the person standing downstairs, she felt a bit awkward.
