Chapter 221: Li Hanchen Carries Mu Sheng

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Chu Rao had a straightforward personality, so she was not the sort to hold back when she cried.

Her eyes were red and her eyelashes were damp as the tears trickled down her face.

“Sob sob sob. I worked hard to make you noodles. It’s fine if you don’t want to eat them, but did you have to throw them on the ground? I carried the noodles all the way from the market!”

Chu Rao felt even more upset thinking about this. After she painstakingly carried all the stuff back, Ye Zhipei heartlessly criticized her cooking and threw the noodles on the ground.

Chu Rao’s crying echoed through the compound. The viewers were at a loss when they saw her crying.

[I feel so bad for Chu Rao. Ye Zhipei was too much. What was he trying to do? Did he have to bully her?]

[Even if he did not like Chu Rao, he did not have to do this… Chu Rao has even scalded her legs.]

[I don’t like Ye Zhipei. Why couldn’t he give in a little since he is a man? All he does is bully her.]

Ye Zhipei kept tightening his fists as he watched Chu Rao cry miserably.

The third time Ye Zhipei asked Chu Rao to stop crying, she refused to stop, so he took off his glasses and said fiercely, “Stop crying already!”

Chu Rao automatically stopped crying. She looked at Ye Zhipei in a daze. When she finally snapped out of it, she felt annoyed.

It was fine for Ye Zhipei to shout at her when they were dating. Now that they had broken up, what gave him the right to do it?

“Do you have the right to shout at me?” asked Chu Rao huffily. She did not care if the camera was rolling.

Ye Zhipei gritted his teeth before he squatted down and checked Chu Rao’s hands.

Chu Rao’s hands were slender and fair, but there were a few cuts on her fingertips. Ye Zhipei instantly looked worried. “Why didn’t you say anything about hurting your hands?”

Chu Rao sniffled. “It’s not like you asked, right?”

Ye Zhipei said nothing. He let go of Chu Rao’s hand and left the room.

Chu Rao watched from behind as Ye Zhipei left and felt even more upset. Now she was even more certain that the man hated her and only agreed to join the program to embarrass her.

Just as Chu Rao was cursing Ye Zhipei angrily in her heart, he came back.

Ye Zhipei had gone out to take a towel and dampen it with some well water. Before Chu Rao could speak, he wiped her hands with the towel.

Since the well water was cool, it alleviated the scalding she had suffered.

Chu Rao watched as Ye Zhipei cleansed her wounds and could not help remembering what it was like when they were dating.

Ye Zhipei always gave off a distant vibe. Even back in their school days, everyone felt he was untouchable.

However, hardly anyone knew Ye Zhipei was a thoughtful man.

Since she had a lively personality, she sometimes got hurt, so Ye Zhipei always kept medicated ointment in his pocket.

Every time she got injured, Ye Zhipei could only gently apply medicated ointment for her.

Ye Zhipei was tending to her wounds just like he did when they were dating, so she automatically asked, “Do you have medicated ointment?”

Ye Zhipei’s hands froze.

Despite breaking up with Chu Rao for over four years, he continued to keep some medicated ointment in his pocket.

Ye Zhipei was about to reach his hand to take it, but he recalled the way Chu Rao left him heartlessly the moment he heard her question.

“Nope. Why would I have that?”

Chu Rao lowered her eyes and concealed her emotions. “I see. Thanks, Prof Ye. I can help myself. I don’t want to trouble you.”

Ye Zhipei could not help feeling uneasy when he saw the disappointed look on her face. “I’m hungry.”

Chu Rao raised her head. “Then go eat.”

Ye Zhipei glanced at the noodles on the ground. “I can’t eat the noodles anymore. Why don’t you make me another bowl?”

Chu Rao went quiet. If the camera was not rolling, Chu Rao really wanted to take a bite off Ye Zhipei. If she did not do as he said, he would tell everyone they used to date. She could only swallow her pride. “Okay. I will make you another bowl of noodles.”

Everyone was stunned, including Chu Rao’s fans.

Chu Rao’s fans were bewildered and typed long chains of question marks on the screen.

[Oh god! Is that really Chu Rao? Doesn’t she hate cooking?]

[Oh my. Is he holding something over Chu Rao? Why is she so obedient?]

Chu Rao was always in the news because of her straightforward personality. Secondly, she refused to associate herself with the dark side of the entertainment industry. Since she did not try to get along with them, she was often slandered.

Chu Rao’s fans were keenly aware that she wasn’t as bad as the news made her out to be. In contrast, she was a proud woman and no one could force her to do anything against her will.

However, the woman on the show was nothing like the Chu Rao they knew.

Ye Zhipei sat in the yard and waited for about ten minutes before Chu Rao came out with a bowl of noodles.

“This is for you.” Chu Rao placed the noodles in front of Ye Zhipei.

Ye Zhipei took some food with his chopsticks and ate it.

Chu Rao was a little worried. “Is it bad?”

Ye Zhipei shook his head. “It’s pretty good.”

Chu Rao clearly seemed happy even though she did not know why she felt that way.

Ye Zhipei had gastritis. Ever since they broke up four years ago, Ye Zhipei often did not eat on time, and his appetite became very small over the years.

However, he politely finished all the noodles.

Chu Rao was angry with him, but she had thrown it behind her. By the time Ye Zhipei was done eating the noodles, she had already stopped crying and was looking around the room.

Ye Zhipei had put down his chopsticks and was about to wash his bowl when Chu Rao pointed at a poster as she exclaimed, “Look at this. The owner of this house chases idols.”

Ye Zhipei glanced in the direction she was pointing and his face instantly turned dark.

The man smiling at him on the poster was none other than Xie Yi.

Ye Zhipei tapped the table and stole Chu Rao’s attention. He pointed at the used cutlery. “Wash the dishes and the pot while you are at it.”

Chu Rao went speechless. She wanted to punch Ye Zhipei in her heart, but she could only smile and say, “Sure thing, Prof Ye.”

The moon kept rising over the treetops at night. Since they were in the countryside, the locals tended to sleep earlier. The only light they saw on their way out was some flickering light every now and then.

Mu Sheng was curious about everything. She felt the stars seemed bigger in the countryside. The air was fresh, and she was close to nature so the atmosphere felt a lot more refreshing than the city.

The kitten kept meowing to them as they walked. People in the countryside tended to rear guard dogs for their residences. The moment the kitten meowed, a ferocious guard dog darted out of a compound and ran straight for Mu Sheng.

Since it was the first time Mu Sheng had seen a cat, she naturally never saw a ferocious guard dog in her life, so she automatically went towards Li Hanchen.

The dog came towards Mu Sheng and kept walking around her with his sharp teeth gleaming threateningly in the moonlight. Animals seemed to adore Mu Sheng.

Mu Sheng was genuinely scared.

Just as she was wondering where to dodge, a pair of strong powerful arms encircled her by the waist and carried her.

The audience went into a furor.
