Chapter 236: These Have Been Prepared For You Alone

“When Young Master Mo said you were pregnant, you told us you were not. This time…” Yao Tiao stared long and hard at her friend's belly.

“I'm really not pregnant.”

“No? Then why did that man say you're pregnant? Oh! By the way, who was that on the line?”

Ye Erruo stirred her coffee before sipping on it. “He saved me before. You've met him.”

“Really?” The other woman was baffled. “Gos.h.!.+ Is it the man we ate roast duck with?”

She shot her a side-glance. “Yes!”

How could she fail to recognize his voice despite conversing with him for several minutes?

“So it was him?” Yao Tiao picked up a dessert and munched on it. “Will your husband skin me alive if he finds out that I'm helping his love rival take care of his dog?”

“What's this ‘love rival' nonsense? Plus, how is this any of his business?”

“Of course it is his business!” she replied agitatedly.

She had been very curious about that man after seeing her friend's husband show such animosity toward him.

“What's your relations.h.i.+p with that man?”

“Didn't I tell you that he saved my life?”

She polished off the dessert on her hand in no time before replying, “Ah, I understand now. On the pretext of being your savior, he's trying to get close to you. He's interested in you! No wonder Young Master Mo is so wary and hostile around him.”

Ye Erruo swatted the other woman's head. “What kind of nonsense are you spouting?”

He sees everyone as his potential love rival. Men, in particular.

“I wanted to ask you to come along with me tomorrow and meet him near R Shopping Mall to collect the dog but I think I have to sc.r.a.p that plan now.”

“…”

“Are you intending to bring the dog back to the bar?”

“Duh. I can't possibly bring it back to my rental apartment.”

Her brows furrowed as she thought, I'd better not visit the bar so frequently during this period.

“Hey, that's right! Didn't you mention that Young Master Mo is scared of dogs? Ha ha ha ha…”

“Why are you laughing?”

“It's hard to imagine him being scared of a dog when he doesn't even fear bullets.”

“He isn't scared of dogs—he's just allergic to dog fur. That's pretty normal.”

The other woman shook her head. “Being allergic means that he can't touch dogs. Doesn't that also mean that he's scared of dogs?”

The corners of her lips twitched. “You and your nonsense.”

“Alright, we've discussed this topic enough. After fetching that dog tomorrow, I'll starve it for two days. He he.”

“…”

“Come on, let's go shopping for cosmetics and clothes together. By the way, where did you buy this attire? I didn't know that you were into this kind of style.”

At the mention of her clothes, she let out a heavy sigh. It's a long story!

“Wait for me for a bit while I go change clothes.”

Mo Jiangye happened to leave their bedroom just as she was on the way back there.

“I'm heading out.”

“Where are you going?”

“Shopping,” she nonchalantly replied as she entered the room to search for an outfit to wear.

His eyes lit up at once. “Are you going grocery shopping at the supermarket? Are you intending to make dumplings?”

She gave him an appraising look. “You're overthinking.”

The man crossed his arms as he leaned against the wall and watched his wife change clothes. It had been a long time since they had last gone grocery shopping together.

Thus, he turned around, picked out a set of clothes from the closet, and began changing as well.

Ten minutes later, the couple walked down from the second floor hand in hand. Yao Tiao looked at them in puzzlement.

The man then opened his mouth sulkily. “You girls go shopping while I take care of the payment.”

She was overjoyed to hear that. Oh, yay! How awesome that Boss is paying for our shopping!

“Come on. Off we go then.”

However, ten minutes later, Yao Tiao was found sitting in the pa.s.senger seat of the car, looking glum.

Sitting in front of her was her friend, who was munching on french fries. From time to time, she was feeding the man beside her. There was also a pile of food, including biscuits and milk, next to her.

“Here you go.” Ye Erruo turned around and handed several packets of snacks to her.

“These have been prepared for you alone.” Mo Jiangye's voice rang out sulkily.
