Yi Yi stared with doe-like eyes, her cherry lips slightly parted, her cheeks pink and tender, her eyes showing a hint of confusion and helplessness. She looked extremely interesting and adorable.
Mu Nanxun wanted to say something more, but he couldn't bear to break the scene before him. Was he being too hasty and scaring Yi Yi? He hadn't originally planned to let Yi Yi know his feelings so quickly, but Mu Wenya's situation forced him to reconsider and speed things up, lest she be completely unaware when something unexpected happened.
Before deciding to come find Yi Yi, Mu Nanxun had already made up his mind: if he was destined to have someone accompany him to old age, or even to death, it could only be Yi Yi. He didn't care if she was human or from this world; all he wanted was the girl standing before him at this very moment.
He was furious earlier that day because he'd witnessed Yi Yi and Chen Dudu together, but that paled in comparison to losing Yi Yi. He hadn't gotten Yi Yi's first time, but every time after that was his.
Yi Yi's stunned expression was so adorable that Mu Nanxun couldn't help but flick her nose and pinch her rosy cheeks, teasingly saying, "Were you just jealous? Jealous of me?"
"Eating... what's with the jealousy? I don't want to be jealous. Vinegar is sour and doesn't taste good at all." Yi Yi felt embarrassed under Mu Nanxun's direct gaze. However, she didn't know what being jealous meant, nor did she realize that Mu Nanxun was teasing her.
Mu Nanxun didn't explain, but handed the still-warm pancake to Yi Yi, a gentle smile curving his lips. He said, "Yes, my Yi Yi doesn't get jealous, she only eats pancakes. This is a pancake that I asked Aunt Li to make especially for you before I left. It was made to your liking and your appetite. Try it."
What? What do you mean by "made to her appetite"? Does that mean she eats a lot?
"No... I won't eat it, give it to Miss Xia!" Yi Yi stubbornly turned her head away, saying she wouldn't eat it! However, her restless little hands and the longing in her eyes betrayed her; she actually wanted to eat it terribly.
Mu Nanxun saw right through Yi Yi's little scheme. She said she didn't want to eat, but her mouth was practically watering. And the way she acted, she was clearly jealous, yet she wouldn't admit it. But Mu Nanxun had to admit, his Yi Yi was absolutely adorable when she was jealous.
"Stop pretending in front of me." Mu Nanxun laughed heartily, shoving the pancake in his hand into Yi Yi's mouth. As far as he could remember, he had never laughed so unrestrainedly before, his mouth stretching almost to the back of his ears.
As the heir to the Mu Corporation, he was taught from a young age that every word and action represented the company's image; he did not belong to himself, but only to the Mu Corporation. Perhaps because he had been accustomed to this from childhood, Mu Nanxun did not think there was anything wrong with it, so for a long time he rarely expressed his emotions and preferences, and even felt that making an extra expression was a waste.
But ever since he met Yi Yi, the girl who could make him angry, frustrated, disappointed, excited, and fulfilled, he couldn't remember when he started to laugh and express his dissatisfaction and various emotions. He himself felt that he had become completely different from the aloof and lonely person he used to be, and had become more down-to-earth. This... is good.
