Mo Jingchen picked up the knife and fork and carefully cut the steak in front of Li Xia into small pieces that fit her mouth size.
"Try the salad first." He picked up the salad and placed it in front of Li Xia.
"Thank you, Mr. Mo." Li Xia thanked.
"Li Xia, you don't have to be so polite. It's time to get off work now. You don't need to call me Mr. Mo."
When Mo Jingchen heard Li Xia addressing him in a distant manner, a hint of loneliness flashed across his face.
Li Xia blinked her eyes and tilted her head and said, "If I don't call you Mr. Mo, then what should I call you?"
"My family calls me Jingchen or Achen." Mo Jingchen's eyes immediately showed joy when he heard this.
She asked, is it time to change the name?
Li Xia nodded, "Oh."
Mo Jingchen waited expectantly for Li Xia's next words.
Unexpectedly, she just said "oh" and nothing else.
Mo Jingchen's mood instantly hit rock bottom.
From the beginning to the end, she never thought of changing the way she addressed him.
He was overthinking it.
It was a waste of joy.
Li Xia glanced at Mo Jingchen out of the corner of her eye. She cleared her throat and said, "No one calls you A Jing, so can I call you A Jing?"
"What did you say?"
Mo Jingchen was a little doubtful about his ears.
Li Xia shrugged, "It doesn't matter if Mr. Mo didn't hear it."
"I heard it." Mo Jingchen lowered his eyes and stared at Li Xia's dark almond eyes, "Okay."
He nodded heavily.
When the two words "Ajing" are put together, they sound a bit euphemistic at first glance.
If someone else said this, Mo Jingchen would definitely refuse.
But if it was Li Xia, he would be willing to be a little feminine.
"Try them all."
Mo Jingchen attentively brought the cut steak to Li Xia.
"You eat too, don't just focus on me." Li Xia said.
"Yeah, okay."
The dark clouds on Mo Jingchen's face dissipated, and the sky cleared up in his heart, and a colorful rainbow bloomed.
Li Xia picked up the fork, picked up a piece of fruit salad covered with milky sauce, and put it in her mouth to taste.
The aroma of milk and fruit is mixed together, the sweet taste fills the mouth, and the taste buds are sublimated.
Mo Jingchen swallowed his saliva and asked nervously, "How is it?"
He saw on the Internet that fruit salad is the simplest dish.
If I can't even make such a simple fruit salad, the taste of the other two dishes will be even worse.
"It's delicious, you should try it too."
Li Xia picked up a piece of salad with the fork in her hand without thinking much.
Mo Jingchen looked at the fruit salad beside his mouth and was stunned for a moment.
Li Xia reacted belatedly, "I'm sorry, I forgot Mo... you have mysophobia."
She was about to pull her hand back.
At this time, Mo Jingchen held Li Xia's wrist, leaned close to her hand, and ate the piece of fruit salad on the fork with Li Xia's hand.
Li Xia blinked quickly.
She had gone with Mo Jingchen twice when he had social events.
She was aware of his level of cleanliness.
"It's too sweet. Next time I'll put less milk sauce." Mo Jingchen frowned.
"Now that you're done eating, can you let go of my hand?"
Li Xia turned her wrist.
Mo Jingchen let go of her hand after she reminded him, "Sorry."
He was a little addicted to the soft touch of his palm.
"The red wine is almost ready. I'll pour it."
In order to hide his embarrassment, Mo Jingchen stood up and took the red wine from the decanter.
He poured half a cup for Lixia.
"This wine has a relatively high alcohol content. Try a little first to see if you can handle it."
Li Xia took a sip, and the mellow aroma of the red wine lingered in her mouth, leaving a lingering fragrance on her teeth.
She tilted her head back and drank most of it.
Mo Jingchen was startled and warned, "Drink slowly. This wine has a strong aftereffect. Be careful of getting a headache."
"I'm happy today, so I want to get drunk. My brother keeps a close eye on me at home, so I don't even have the chance to get drunk. Just let me indulge myself for once. You have no interest in me anyway, so whether I'm drunk or not, there's no danger, right?"
Li Xia poured herself a full glass of red wine despite Mo Jingchen's attempts to stop her.
"no……"
"What do you mean? You said you wouldn't marry me and we wouldn't have sex, didn't you?"
Mo Jingchen wanted to explain, but Li Xia interrupted him by moving her lips.
Li Xia drank two glasses of red wine in one go.
When she was about to pour the third glass, Mo Jingchen reached out and grasped her wrist, and with his other hand he took the goblet from Li Xia's hand.
"You can't drink anymore, you're drunk."
Li Xia's cheeks were flushed, her watery almond-shaped eyes were half-closed, and her pure eyes were tinged with charm.
Mo Jingchen's Adam's apple rolled up and down and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
He forced himself not to look at Li Xia's face.
What she said was all true and he had no way to defend himself.
He is being selfish.
He shouldn't have asked her to do that.
Li Xia is beautiful and she deserves a more perfect life.
"Li Xia, I'm sorry." Mo Jingchen lowered his eyelids, "Just pretend that I never said we were dating. I can take responsibility in other ways."
Since he couldn't marry her, he shouldn't destroy her.
Li Xia narrowed her eyes, "Other ways?" She smiled and looked a little tipsy, "How do you want to be responsible to me?"
She asked back.
"No matter what you want, as long as you ask, I can satisfy it." Mo Jingchen said.
Li Xia raised her eyes slightly, "Really? I can have anything I want?"
"Um."
"Kiss me."
"Um?"
Mo Jingchen's heart trembled.
"You can say anything. I want you to kiss me now." Li Xia stood up and walked to Mo Jingchen. She put her hands on his shoulders and leaned down. Their noses touched, and their breaths were lingering.
"Lixia, you are drunk."
Mo Jingchen's eyebrows moved slightly.
She was not awake now, and he had to stay awake.
"I'm not drunk. If you're a man, kiss me." Li Xia used provocation.
"I……"
Mo Jingchen pursed his lips.
Of course he is a man.
Can……
He didn't want to admit that he was a man without tadpoles.
Mo Jingchen hooked Li Xia's waist and brought her to his legs, his eyes darkening.
He stretched out his slender fingers, gently pinched Li Xia's round jaw, leaned down, and held the vermilion softness in his mouth.
Mo Jingchen's kiss was so immature that he had no skills at all.
Their lips touched, but that was just a touch.
Only when Li Xia opened her teeth did he take a step forward.
In just a few minutes, Mo Jingchen found the pattern without any help.
Strong entanglement.
Li Xia raised her slender arms, grabbed Mo Jingchen's neck, and challenged him refusing to admit defeat.
“Hmm…”
The air in Li Xia's chest became thinner and thinner. She was slightly inferior and was the first to be defeated.
"Are you okay?" Mo Jingchen patted Li Xia's back to help her calm down.
Li Xia took a breath and raised her head with a suspicious look, "Is this really your first time?"
