It was Mo Shenbai’s phone that was ringing.

The disposable gloves were torn at some point so his fingers were stained with chili oil. He had not cleaned his hand yet so he said, “Right pocket. Help me answer it.”

“Oh.” Xu Youyou quickly put down the skewers in her hands and reached into his pocket. She could feel his muscles as she fished for the phone.

Mo Shenbai’s breathing turned slightly heavy, and his dark eyes shone with desire and affection. He asked in a low voice, “Where do you think you’re touching?”

Xu Youyou said brazenly, “I didn’t expect your pocket to be so deep.”

Her hand continued to move down, and when she finally found the phone, she muttered, “Moreover, it’s not like I haven’t touched it before…”

Mo Shenbai worked out all year round so he was in great shape. He was neither too muscular nor too skinny. His body felt especially good to touch.

Sometimes, Xu Youyou would be unable to restrain herself, letting herself be seduced by the man next to her.

Mo Shenbai glanced at her from the corners of his eyes with a doting smile on his face. ‘Listen to her words. She’s like a little hooligan.’

After bringing the phone out, Xu Youyou lowered her head to look at the phone. The smile on her face suddenly faded, and she pursed her lips, not saying anything.

Seeing that her expression was not right, Mo Shenbai shifted his eyes to his phone. Following that, his smile faded as well.

The name displayed on the phone screen was Yun Youwei.

The relaxed and ambiguous atmosphere evaporated immediately due to the name. It turned solemn and heavy.

“Answer it,” Mo Shenbai said.

Xu Youyou pressed the button before holding the phone against Mo Shenbai’s ears.

Yun Youwei’s uneasy and anxious voice rang from the other end of the line. “Shenbai, can you come over?”

“What’s the matter?” Mo Shenbai asked icily.

“Mumu has a high fever!” Yun Youwei said. She sounded anxious and like she was on the verge of tears.

Mo Shenbai remained unmoved. “Then, you bring him to the hospital. I’m not a doctor; I can’t treat him.”

His words were heartless, but they were true.

“He’s been crying non-stop, saying he wants to see Dad,” Yun Youwei said pleadingly and humbly, “I’m begging you. Can you just come over and see him?”

As though worried Mo Shenbai would not believe her, Yun Youwei placed her phone in front of Xie Yumu.

Xie Yumu’s cries rang from the phone. He kept saying over and over again, “Dad! I want Dad!”

Xu Youyou did not intend to eavesdrop on the conversation, but she could hear Xie Yumu’s cries.

Mo Shenbai’s expression was tense, and his dark eyes under his thick eyelashes were deep.

He was dressed in a short-sleeved shirt that revealed his lean arms. At this time, Xu Youyou poked his arm and mouthed the words, ‘Go ahead.’

Mo Shenbai, who did not look worried at all about Xie Yumu, frowned.

Xu Youyou mouthed silently, “The child is innocent.”

No matter what kind of ways Yun Youwei tried to use to cling to Mo Shenbai, Xu Youyou thought it was unlikely that Yun Youwei would deliberately hurt her son to gain Mo Shenbai’s attention. Since Xie Yumu was sick, she thought it was reasonable for Mo Shenbai to go and have a look.

After a moment of silence, Mo Shenbai said in a somewhat forced tone, “Alright.”

After ending the call, Mo Shenbai looked at her unhappily. Did she really feel at ease letting him go to another woman at night? Did she not care about him at all?

Xu Youyou saw the unhappy expression on his face and asked in a low voice, “Are you unhappy?”

“Do you want me to be happy while I meet another woman?” Mo Shenbai retorted. His displeasure was growing.

Xu Youyou could not help but laugh.

Mo Shenbai reached out to pinch her. “You’re still laughing?”

‘Does she not love me? Or does she have a big heart?’

“It hurts, it hurts!” Xu Youyou cried out in pain as she pushed her hand away, begging for mercy with a pitiful expression on her face.

Mo Shenbai withdrew his hand. He did not move, clearly not intending to leave.

“Xie Yumu is sick. She probably can’t handle it alone. Help her send him to the hospital…” Xu Youyou said magnanimously.

Mo Shenbai looked at her and said, “Come with me.”

Xu Youyou shook her head immediately. “I haven’t finished my meal! It’s a shame to waste so much food! You can go ahead.”

Xu Youyou really could not be bothered to deal with the trouble of going to the hospital.

“Do you trust me so much?” Mo Shenbai frowned.

“I don’t trust you.” Xu Youyou shook her head. Before Mo Shenbai could speak, she scooted closer to him before she lowered her voice and said mysteriously, “Since you sat down, there have been no fewer than 10 women who were ogling you…”

Her soft voice carried a hint of jealousy.

Those women were definitely not looking at the young and tender-looking Xu Youyou. Their eyes were all fixed on Mo Shenbai’s handsome face. Perhaps, if Xu Youyou was not sitting at the table, they would have already come over to ask for Mo Shenbai’s number.

“Is that so?” Mo Shenbai’s attention had been focused on Xu Youyou from the beginning. He did not pay attention to his surroundings at all.

Xu Youyou nodded and said seriously, “Instead of letting so many women look at you, it’s better that I let Xie Yumu look at you. Moreover, compared to so many women here, there’s only one Yun Youwei.”

“What nonsense!” Despite his words, Mo Shenbai was defeated by her strange logic. His hand pinched her nose slightly.

Mo Shenbai’s action caused the hearts of the women in the surroundings to flutter. It also brought with it a hint of bitterness.

One of the women even pinched her boyfriend and complained, “Look at her boyfriend! He’s handsome, considerate, and romantic! Look at you! You’re like a piece of wood!”

The man was not convinced. He scoffed and retorted, “Then why don’t you look at how cute and gentle his girlfriend is? Her smile is like a blooming flower. What about you? You’re just a hag!”

“...”

‘Let’s break up! We can’t go on like this!’

Meanwhile, Mo Shenbai lowered his gaze and thought about it for a moment. In the end, he decided to go and have a look. After all, Xie Yumu was Xie Tingxi’s posthumous child. Even if Xie Yumu was now acknowledged by the Xie family, he was undoubtedly Xie Tingxi’s child.

“Then, what are you going to do?” He was worried about leaving Xu Youyou alone. Moreover, she had been drinking.

“There’s still so much food. I’ll ask Lanlan to come over and accompany me. Don’t worry about me,” Xu Youyou said before she sent a message to Su Lanxu.

In the past, Xu Youyou often went shopping and have meals with Su Lanxu during summer vacation. However, this summer, there was Mo Shenbai. Hence, it had been a long time since she had invited Su Lanxu out.

Su Lanxu had been slightly jealous, saying that Xu Youyou valued men over friends.

Mo Shenbai pulled her glass of beer to the side and said in a low voice, “You’re not allowed to drink beer anymore. Tell Cang Ming to pick you up later.”

Since Mo Shenbai came out with Xu Youyou, Cang Ming did not come.

Xu Youyou nodded obediently. “I know! Go.”

Mo Shenbai stroked her head. Then, seemingly thinking of something, he lowered his head and kissed her forehead before he said affectionately, “How obedient.”

Xu Youyou’s face turned red immediately

‘We’re in a public place!!!’

Mo Shenbai wore a faint satisfied smile on his face before he left.

At the same time, the women in the surroundings could not help but gasp. Some of them even squealed in delight.

“It’s too sweet!”

“This is sad! Why is other people’s love so sweet? In contrast, my boyfriend treats me like I’m his sworn brother!’

“As expected. When beautiful people get together, even their relationships are better than others.”

Mo Shenbai did not pay attention to the gazes in the surroundings. After entering the car, he brought his phone out. Then, he scrolled through his address book until he stopped at one name: Xu Jialu. Since it was Xu Jialu’s fault he did not get to meet Xu Youyou earlier, he thought it was a fine time now to seek revenge.
