20demayo Chapter 111 "Aren't you going to say something?"
Chapter 111 "Aren't you going to say something?"
Before completely sorting out her relationship with Sheng Yuan, Lin Mingmo chose to return to Yumei Garden.
Perhaps she herself did not realize that she secretly hoped that Sheng Yuan would explain something to her.
It was almost eight o'clock in the evening and it was completely dark.
The dark house was silent and seemed to be filled with a cold and ghostly atmosphere.
Lin Mingmo hummed a little tune to give herself courage while groping to press the switch that controlled the lights in the whole house.
The lights came on and her heart felt a little more at ease.
She turned around and was startled by the figure that suddenly appeared on the sofa. The fried chicken and cake milk tea she was holding dropped from her hands in an instant.
There were two snaps, followed by a scream.
"what--"
The figure stood up. Although Lin Mingmo was still in shock, she recognized the man as Sheng Yuan from the familiar figure.
"Sheng Yuan, you..." Lin Mingmo covered her chest and gasped, "Are you pretending to be a vampire? Sitting in such a dark place without a light on at night, you almost scared me to death!"
Sheng Yuan looked stern as he stood up and walked towards Lin Mingmo.
His eyes were cold, his lips were tightly pursed, and he exuded the powerful aura of a superior.
"Oh?" Sheng Yuan's tone rose, "I thought my appearance would be a surprise."
Lin Mingmo was still in shock, and she paused slightly when she heard this.
But she quickly calmed down. Now, she was still worried about the milk tea, cake and fried chicken that she had waited in line for a long time to buy.
These are the source of her happiness tonight.
Fortunately, the cake was just slightly damaged and the shape was incomplete, but it was still edible and the milk tea was not spilled.
The light shone on her, and the floor in front of her was covered with a thick layer of shadow.
Lin Mingmo watched the pair of feet wearing high-end black leather shoes stop in front of her, and couldn't help but look up along the straight and slender legs wrapped in trousers, and met Sheng Yuan's deep eyes.
My heart skipped a beat again.
Lin Mingmo tried her best to put aside the distracting thoughts in her mind, picked up the box of fried chicken, which was still a little hot, and asked sincerely, "Fried chicken, do you want some?"
Sheng Yuan narrowed his eyes and the veins on his forehead twitched.
Sure enough, her mood was not affected at all.
hehe.
Sheng Yuan curled up the corner of his mouth in a sneer. The moment Lin Mingmo stood up, his eyes suddenly became sharp and he raised his hand to pinch her chin.
Lin Mingmo was startled and the fried chicken she had just picked up fell to the ground again.
She held Sheng Yuan's arms with both hands.
"Sheng Yuan, you..." She frowned, her tone dissatisfied.
She had cursed him countless times in her heart on the way back, and now she wanted to repeat it loudly in front of him.
But when he met Sheng Yuan's cold gaze, he subconsciously swallowed his saliva and stopped talking.
She was more scared than angry.
What if Sheng Yuan really loses interest in me, will he kick me out without mercy?
Perhaps it was the tenderness of these days that made her fall, and she almost forgot that Sheng Yuan was a ruthless man.
There was only an arm's length between the two of them, and Sheng Yuan could smell the scent of shampoo left on her body after she showered...
But it was as if thousands of ravines and gullies suddenly appeared, pulling the distance between the two people to infinity.
Lin Mingmo's heart was beating rapidly, but her eyes gradually cooled down.
She looked straight into Sheng Yuan's eyes.
It was a little hard for her now to imagine that these cold eyes could actually be so "gentle as water".
No... maybe that's just wishful thinking.
Sheng Yuan frowned and pinched her chin with his fingers, unconsciously applying force.
He didn't let go until Lin Mingmo groaned in pain.
"Aren't you going to say anything?" Sheng Yuan said in a low voice, suppressing his anger.
The direct light from overhead made the boundary between light and dark in his deep facial features more distinct, and his downturned brows also gave him a fierce look.
Lin Mingmo bent down, picked up the messy food, and asked back in the same cold tone, "Aren't you going to say anything?"
What's the logic? She was the one who did something ridiculous, so what can she say?
Without any explanation, he was so fierce...
"What happened last night..." Sheng Yuan subconsciously wanted to explain, but when he saw Lin Mingmo unpack the cake box and casually scoop off a corner with a spoon and put it into her mouth.
She didn't seem to mind at all and didn't want to hear any explanation.
She didn't even want to be angry.
Like any other woman, she questioned her boyfriend about why he was having affairs with other women...
Sheng Yuan's anger escalated because of her indifference.
"Since you don't care, there's no need to explain." He laughed coldly.
He thought that with Lin Mingmo's previous intense temper, she would definitely ask to leave after something like this happened.
If not, it just proves that she has ulterior motives.
He waited and watched to see what clues Lin Mingmo would reveal.
The bitterness in Lin Mingmo's mouth was suppressed by the sweetness of the cake.
"Mr. Sheng is free and easy-going. He doesn't need to explain to anyone." As she said that, she stuffed another piece of cake into her mouth and chewed it carefully.
So sweet... so unpalatable.
Perhaps because she had waited in line for so long, the flavor of the cake she bought disappointed her, and the corners of her eyes turned red.
A feeling of grievance suddenly surged in my heart.
Hearing this obviously sarcastic remark, Sheng Yuan's frown relaxed slightly.
He took another step closer, cupped her face, and gently wiped the remaining cream from the corners of her mouth with his fingertips.
Lin Mingmo's first reaction was to turn her head away, but she didn't know where the rebelliousness came from, so she went against her instinct and stared at Sheng Yuan, allowing him to do what he did.
Sheng Yuan's thumb and index finger rubbed gently, and the cream on his fingertips melted.
"I'm so ridiculous, will you still be with me?" Sheng Yuan bent down, his eyes level with hers, and breathed warmly on her face.
His tone was softer than before, but his eyes were still cold, as if he wanted to see through her.
The handsome face so close to me is like a gift from God.
Lin Mingmo's dislike for him reached its peak at this moment, and the indescribable feelings that had developed over the past few days also changed.
Force her to leave?
You could just say it directly, why use such dirty means?
Sheng Yuan's attitude aroused Lin Mingmo's rebelliousness.
Even though she had already prepared herself mentally for separation, she was still overcome with stubbornness at this moment.
She stared into Sheng Yuan's eyes, a mocking smile curling up at the corner of her mouth, "Sheng Yuan, it was you who kept provoking me and pestering me... Of course, it's not so easy to kick me out now."
"Heh." Sheng Yuan raised his eyebrows and sneered.
It's full of irony.
His eyes were no longer filled with soft light as before, but were cold and sharp.
Lin Mingmo felt as if something had stabbed her heart, and an inexplicable sadness surged up in her.
Lin Lidong and Yao Yuhui treated her as a pawn to curry favor with the powerful, while Lin Xingxi saw her as an ungrateful and selfish person...
The things and people that Lin Mingmo cherished collapsed one by one.
Now even Sheng Yuan...
Fortunately, Lin Mingmo was mentally prepared.
She kept stuffing cake into her mouth and mumbled, "A lean camel is bigger than a horse. No matter how little you are valued, you are still the Fourth Master of the Sheng family... You are good-looking and have a good figure..."
He kept mumbling, and the cake in his mouth tasted sour and bitter.
Sheng Yuan's brows furrowed further and further, and he felt extremely upset.
It turns out that Lin Mingmo made so many considerations in her heart before choosing me...
But the only thing I don’t have is… like.
Sheng Yuan folded his arms across his chest and glanced at Lin Mingmo affectionately and coldly, "If you want to be with me, you can. But..."
He paused, "You must give up your wild uncle who came from nowhere."
These words were like a bomb dropped into Lin Mingmo's heart.
She raised her head and looked at Sheng Yuan in disbelief.
A huge wave surged in my heart.
"Sheng Yuan, are you crazy or am I?" Lin Mingmo's heart was broken. "Put away your inexplicable possessiveness. He is my family, a family connected by blood. Why do you think I would give him up for you?"
"I have nothing left. Why can't you even tolerate me as your uncle?"
"To put it bluntly, he's about to die!" Lin Mingmo shouted excitedly, "Sheng Yuan, can't you even tolerate a dying person?"
Looking at her face flushed with anger, Sheng Yuan curled up the corner of his mouth into a sneer.
"So, you chose him, right?" Sheng Yuan's cold eyes seemed to penetrate his pupils and pierce her heart. "What exactly do you and he want from me?"
