When Liu Duo thought about getting paid soon, she became so excited that she could only fall asleep when it was late into the night. This resulted in her having dark circles hanging under her eyes when she woke up in the morning.
“Duo Er, didn’t sleep well?” Ye Ling asked Liu Duo when he came out of the kitchen and saw her.
After she finished washing up, she wiped the water from her hands. “I really didn’t sleep well. Ling, is the meal ready? I need to go to town later. When I get back, I will have a pleasant surprise to tell you!”
She smiled and showed her snowy white teeth. She was about to have money, so of course, she wouldn’t be able to fall asleep from the excitement.
She didn’t sleep well, but she was still so happy? Ye Ling was puzzled. He nodded when he heard that she was going to head to town. “Yeah, the food is ready. I’ll go get it.”
He turned around and went to the kitchen.
She hummed a folk tune and skipped merrily into the kitchen to help as well.
“It couldn’t be that you didn’t sleep well because I wasn’t there with you! It’s okay, I will keep you company tonight.” Ye Mo suddenly came up behind Liu Duo and spoke softly. He showed his cool face and then left, as if he weren’t the one who said it.
He was actually the one who had gotten used to sleeping with Liu Duo. He would feel a bit lonely when she wasn’t there.
Liu Duo’s good mood disappeared just like that. She got so angry that the corner of her mouth started to twitch – so angry that she was almost crumbling. Who could help her put this guy away? When she slept with him, she would sometimes have the impulse to choke him to death. He was arrogant, overbearing, and stubborn in his views! A completely unreasonable person!
She didn’t even dare to fight back, otherwise, he might really ravish her!
Liu Duo became very sullen when she thought about this. She went into the kitchen to help with a gloomy expression on her face. Ye Mo’s mood was extremely good when he thought about sleeping with Liu Duo that night. Even his cool face couldn’t hide his smile.
After the meal, Liu Duo went to Ye Mo with a sour look on her face and then stretched out her hand. “Give me a few wens. I want to go to town.”
She really didn’t want to take money from him or talk to him. However, she didn’t have money to pay for the ox cart, but she didn’t want to walk. She also had already returned the purse that Ye Liu gave her.
When Ye Yang and Ye Liu weren’t home, the money in the house would be managed by Ye Mo. Ye Ling never managed money.
“I’ll accompany you there.” Ye Mo said coolly without even having to think about it. He got up and went back to the bedroom to get the money.
She wanted him to give her the money, because she didn’t want him to go with her. Did he not understand this? Damn it!
She got up and ran after him.
Bang, Liu Duo opened the bedroom door. She said angrily, “I don’t need you to accompany me. Just give me the money.”
Liu Duo hadn’t realized that she couldn’t control her temper when facing Ye Mo. This had been especially true for the past few days. She was becoming more and more irritable.
He saw Liu Duo standing at the door, looking like an angry lioness. Ye Mo found it funny. Although her attitude towards him for the past few days wasn’t good, the expressions on her face became more varied.
“It’s only because I was also preparing to go to town. I’m just going along with you since it’s on the way.”
What he meant was that she shouldn’t think too much. That he wasn’t specifically going out of his way to accompany her!
“…” This bastard made Liu Duo so angry that she almost vomited blood!
He saw that Liu Duo couldn’t refute him and the corner of his mouth started to move up smugly. Yet he still maintained his cool expression. He walked passed Liu Duo and went out of the bedroom.
“Ling, we’re going to town. Do you want to come?” Ye Mo asked when he saw Ye Ling.
Ye Ling shook his head as he put away the bowls and chopsticks. “I’m not going. You guys go ahead.”
Ye Ling had never gone to town before. Besides helping with the farm work, he stayed at home every day. He didn’t want to go out to see other people, since people would laugh at him and call him a cripple. The village children would also mimic his walk.
He had always been shy and introverted. Ever since Liu Duo came, he became much more open and cheerful.
“Okay, we’ll get going.” He nodded, glanced over at Liu Duo’s angry eyes, and then went out through the yard door first.
Why did that glance from Liu Duo seem so provocative? It seemed to be saying, If you want to walk, then don’t come with me!
