Yu Qiuchi ran towards Mo Weiyun with great joy, but Mo Weiyun's eyes were cold, as if she were looking at someone unimportant. Because she did not receive the praise she wanted, Yu Qiuchi felt confused and upset.
He climbed ashore and handed the lotus root in his hand forward. The lotus root wasn't big, just a small section. Compared to what others had dug up, it was like a little trinket. But Yu Qiuchi's eyes were shining, and he gestured for Mo Weiyun to look at the lotus root he had dug up.
[Is that the domineering CEO brother? Zoom in on the camera!]
[Why is my husband here?! Is he here to watch the lotus root harvest at Qiuchi?]
[I'm starting to seriously doubt the purity of these two brothers. (Muttering to himself)]
Mo Weiyun arrived while Yu Qiuchi was picking lotus roots. He stood there watching the whole process of Song Yaozhuo "imprisoning" Yu Qiuchi. Yu Qiuchi did not refuse such "intimate" contact. Mo Weiyun's eyes darkened. He knew that Yu Qiuchi had the right to choose her own partner, but he really couldn't bear to watch like this.
This must be Yu Qiuchi's roommate who waited for him to go back to sleep last night...
"You seemed to enjoy picking the lotus roots." Mo Weiyun looked down at the miniature lotus root still covered in mud in Yu Qiuchi's hand.
Yu Qiuchi was still a little dazed at this moment, not realizing what was wrong. He thought Mo Weiyun was asking him a question, so he immediately nodded and said, "Happy!"
"I initially thought it was dirty, but I was even happier after seeing my brother!"
Yu Qiuchi was puzzled as to why Mo Weiyun didn't take the lotus root from his hand, and hurriedly offered it to him.
The man's fingers were pale and slender. When he picked up the lotus root from Yu Qiuchi's palm, the blue veins on the back of his hand could be seen as he gripped it. His white hand contrasted sharply with the dark lotus root.
Yu Qiuchi felt that the warm touch just now was unreal, and he didn't know if it was a misperception. It seemed that Mo Weiyun had hooked his palm with her finger.
Mo Weiyun took the lotus root and washed it clean in a bucket on the shore. He casually tossed it in his hand a couple of times. Yu Qiuchi looked at his brother's hand holding the lotus root and felt a strange ache in his heart.
Mo Weiyun put the lotus root into a clean bucket, patted Yu Qiuchi's head, and said indifferently, "You're covered in mud from playing."
Yu Qiuchi felt that something was not right. In the past, even if he committed a crime, his brother would always praise him and say that he was really good!
Instead of praising him, they seem to be blaming him for getting himself dirty!
This was his first time picking lotus roots! He even offered his first lotus root to Mo Weiyun! Although it was a little small, how could he accept it without saying a few words to express his gratitude!
Yu Qiuchi secretly glanced at his brother's expression. He was as handsome as ever, the kind of domineering CEO you'd expect. His dark eyes were as cold as stars, revealing nothing about him.
Mo Weiyun's lips were pressed into a straight line. Most people wouldn't notice the change, but Yu Qiuchi, who had always been his brother's shadow since childhood, clearly saw that he was unhappy.
What exactly angered his brother this time? Did Assistant Tang fail to handle things properly, or did Zhou Baixi cause some trouble again?
Yu Qiuchi distanced himself from the situation, determined not to upset his brother. He frantically racked his brains, trying to think of anyone who might be involved with Mo Weiyun.
[No way, what are the photography crew doing?! Deduct their pay! Deduct their pay!]
[Oh no, what am I going to do? A domineering CEO in a suit and tie × A spoiled young master who only acts cute in front of him]
Why does my wife look so shy?
Yu Qiuchi, who was described by netizens as shy, just wanted praise, but he was hesitant because of the cameras. He didn't want to ruin his image in front of so many cameras, so he hesitated for a moment. However, he was unhappy and stood there letting Mo Weiyun play with his hair.
[Please, please praise my wife quickly, she's about to burst!]
[Can you please praise my wife, brother?]
[My wife seems like a little kid now, I wonder who's more childish between her, Yan Qing, and Xie Tingsi, hahaha]
Mo Weiyun could see Yu Qiuchi's awkwardness, so he used a hairpin to half-tie up Yu Qiuchi's hair. A long ponytail was certainly more beautiful and cool, but it was almost like a mop in the mud.
"Qiuchi! Look, look! There are lotus flowers here!" Yan Qing was extremely excited. He pointed to the lotus flowers floating on the water, hidden among the lotus leaves. The lotus flowers were already half withered, and the petals had slowly dried up from pink. But they also had a unique beauty among the pile of withered lotus leaves.
Yu Qiuchi suddenly thought of Lin Daiyu's words: I dislike Li Yishan's poems the most, except for this line, "The withered lotus leaves remain to listen to the sound of rain".
Yu Qiuchi was tempted to go and take a look. Mo Weiyun could guess what Yu Qiuchi was thinking, and he patted the little tuft on Yu Qiuchi's head: "Go ahead, I'll stew lotus root for you for lunch."
Upon hearing this, Yu Qiuchi couldn't contain herself any longer. She awkwardly shuffled towards the pool, her face reserved, but her movements were very eager.
Mo Weiyun watched Yu Qiuchi's struggling figure as she walked across the pond, then slowly shifted her gaze to meet Song Yaozhuo's, who had been watching them the whole time.
Mo Weiyun had to admit that he regretted agreeing to let Yu Qiuchi participate in this dating reality show with Zhou Baixi... He should have looked for other methods.
Yu Qiuchi had no idea what Mo Weiyun was thinking. He staggered over to Yan Qing's side and curiously poked the nearly withered lotus flower with his hand: "A living lotus!"
Yan Qing chimed in, "Yes, yes, it's alive, not fake!"
Yu Qiuchi himself felt stupid about what he said. He originally just wanted to marvel at how only one lotus flower remained in the pond when all the others had withered. But now, what he said made him seem like he was ignorant of the world.
Perhaps spending too much time with Yan Qing has infected my intelligence.
[Seriously, are these two clowns trying to kill me with laughter?]
[My wife is usually very gentle and refined, a true gentleman, but today she's just... never mind, I can't keep this up.]
